Sarah Palin is Anti -Semetic ?
i'm hearing that a lot of older Jewish people think Palin is anti semetic . many who were going to vote for McCain ended up voting for Obama because of her.

is this why she started all the talk about how much she supports Israel ? i thought that was kind of weird.

i think it might have had something to do with her church but i don't think we heard much about it in the election so it's interesting that it was a big thing about the older jewish community, especially in Florida.

2. I don't recall the specifics

3. She is likely very anti-Semitic.
What with Jews for Jesus in her church and all.

She supports Israel because it is a requirement that the Jews occupy the Holy Land for the end times prophecy to be fulfilled. The last battle for earth starts there. At the end, the Jews have to convert to Christianity or be killed and tossed into the fiery depths of hell or something.

5. All evangelicals support Israel, but in a very blind way. However, they believe that all Jews,
Edited on Mon Nov-10-08 05:13 AM by No Elephants
like everyone else on the planet, will go to hell unless they accept Jesus as their savior and dedicate their lives to Jesus. So, technically, she is an unthinking Zionist who would love to see Judaism. as a religion, eliminated I guess. She would probably just love her some ethnic Jews, so long as they repented of their religion (and voted a straight Republican ticket, like most born again evangelicals).

6. Can someone give an example
of something she said or implied that conveys this ?

Personally I can't stand the woman but this sounds a bit odd to me.

8. No she's not
She said that she wasn't. The reason being that she didn't know what the words meant. When asked in simpler terms "Do you hate Jews?" however, she said "You betcha".

11. But she went to school in little Coeur d'alene Idaho
At that time, the center of the Aryan Nation movement and, among other things, site of its annual world congress and site of annual Nazi marches. Not that this proves anything, but you put it together with the whole package - the John Birch newspaper, her odd insertion of the quote from Westbrook Pegler in her convention speech (he was a man who was kicked out of the John Birch Society for being too anti-Semitic!) the church, the preacher, the AIP, the rumored statements about blacks, the racial hinting throughout her campaign, the use of terms like real Americans implying that there are some who aren't, etc.

If a person had a sensitivity for such things, the anti-Semite detector would be going haywire if it got within 100 feet of her.
