Update to previous post: Antisemitism is not a Jewish problem
“ANTISEMITISM IS NOT A JEWISH PROBLEM," say the Jewish panelists at the sixth Global Forum for Combating Antisemitism in Jerusalem, just concluded. This is the opposite of what I wrote in my previous post, "Antisemitism is here to stay".
The Jewish leadership has always told the Jewish faithful: There is nothing Jews need to change because the cause of the historical and universal dislike of Jews is a “problem of the society in which it rises.”





The New Jersey state comptroller's office [Philip Degnan at left] has designed an amnesty program to deal with the Orthodox Jews who, out of the 50,000 now living in Lakewood, applied for and took Medicaid benefits that they were not fully entitled to. Recall that in June and July, 26 Orthodox Jews (all married couples) were arrested for taking more than $2 million in public assistance they weren't entitled to. They included a prominent rabbi and his brother, business owners, and students at the local yeshivas.
