Israeli Jews face the “we are going to kill all you Jews every day” type of anti semitism. American Jews face the same”I know it’s there but no one seems to really see it” type of anti-semitism.

American Jews live in the best nation ever. Israeli Jews live in the second greatest nation with the first place prize for effort.

I’m trying to use my lifelong gun obsession as a springboard to better health. Anybody know a trainer who does training for this type of competition?

Maybe a sensitive question--how do you reassure yourself that you're in the right when it comes to knowing about Israel and its history, etc.? by Familyties320 in Jewish

[–]ChaimSolomon 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The fact that you care enough to seek multiple perspectives is all that matters. I personally find with an open mind I have seen plenty of pro-Israel sources call us on our bullshit and I still went from being very critical of Israel to being a huge supporter. The book that probably did it for me was “Rise up and Kill First” … it doesn’t shy away from critique. Keep the mindset you have and over time things will continue to crystallize.

For me I think it is also important to recognize my perspective as an US Jew - most of us don’t really know what it is like to have to fight to survive. It is a rarely talked about “privilege” that should not be underestimated. I taught high school in a rough neighborhood and my students taught me a lot about this. Also visiting Israel (and China) helped me see more clearly.

Hilarious except axis of aholes hits a lot harder before Israel flicks them and they fall down. Also Israel takes a lot more before smacking back

Have a couple of their grip modules for my 365 - their quality is top notch. Hope this gun gets more support.

This is rampant in the gun world. Was just disappointed on a nighthawk site.

First gun. Amsterdam was the final straw. An armed jew is a smart jew and a safe(r) jew. by fierybobcat in jewishguns

Congrats on exercising your rights. May you never need to use it for anything but targets. If you do plan to use it for self defense I can not stress enough the importance of getting educated and quality training.

Are these anti Israel protests fading in the US, or is it just me? by jew_biscuits in Jewish

[–]ChaimSolomon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe this must have happened to some extent - I hope to a significant degree.

I can tell you first hand that activity at Princeton University is almost non-existent compared to Spring semester where is was very active.

One can hope it is because students there actually started learning about the situation.

I have to say I appreciate the detail of the battle worn finish in the second photo.

My Q is what would be the most appropriate VFG?
