Gauracandra Posted November 19, 2001 Report Share Posted November 19, 2001 This has always puzzled me. I think the jewish people are probably the most targeted group religiously. I can't figure it out. The only thing I can think of is that they tend to be a very tight knit community. As such they work together, pool their resources and build up their own communities. This is perhaps intimidating to less organized groups, who feel dominated by the Jewish unity. But you really can't blame them for that, actually its quite admirable. Any thoughts?

Tarun Posted November 20, 2001 Report Share Posted November 20, 2001 Many religious Jews do NOT accept Israel's physical political existence at this point in time. While at Queens College CUNY, I regularly attended Rabbi Meir Kahane fiery militant Student Union lectures. Too bad he was assassinated. He used to advise all Jews present: "Don't become doctors, become farmers! Israel needs more farmers. We already have enough Jewish doctors worldwide!" Then again Palestinians certainly have their equally valid viewpoint. Hitler recommended Israel be set up in Madagascar. Far from the Maddening Crowd. Away from it all. League of Nations did not agree. United Nations neither. Instead we have this ongoing incongruous turmoil. Steady business for all our gun & plane manufacturers. Somebody says Jews are behind all World Banking. Somebody else says Jews control less than 1% of all World Banks. So many famous Jews changed their European family name. Who can say for sure whether 'Tony Curtis', 'Kirk Douglas' & 'Edward G Robinson' were Bar Mitzvahed or not? Some say Rothchild's Family is Jewish + most powerful of all. Many say Protocol of Zionism book is authentic. Many say Protocol of Zionism book is fabricated. One says Jews identify with Afro-Amerikans' struggle to survive. Another says Jews exploit Blacks' struggle for their own gain. So many Jews become Hare KRSNa devotees: that is best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahak Posted November 20, 2001 Report Share Posted November 20, 2001 Chosen, but for what. Ya see, there is a gulf of difference between jews and israelites. What is known as "ISRAELITE" (which can translate as "those devoted to the Wife of God"), and such folks are always depending on the shelter and protection of the Supreme Lord, just as a wife expects the protection of the husband. Jews, however, refers to a religious system which is rather obscure, and is pretty mundane, and far off the mark when compared to the above meaning prescribed to Israelite. Jews seem to have a "manifest destiny", and because they have this "chosen people" idealogy and apply it to this world, and think that Holy Zion is somewhere in the temporal plane, such Zionism is justifyably a serious irritant to all other people. Not just the Palestinians suffer under this false ownership, there is no limit to their expansionism. So, ya get freaks like hitler and others like this and they fight back, and it is just a choice between two evil mundane systems, not unlike the manson family versus the Tates and labiancas. So, some may suffer unrighteously, the pious israelites who are mislabeled jews, but there are others who like to be called jews who make much propaganda from the holocaust, have no concern for the suffering of the death camp victims, but use the buzz word of holocaust to even make them,selves more powerful (Like the freak sharon who says "never again", yet marches through refugee camps murdering, like his dear nazi friends, old men and all fathers in full view of the small children who grow up to be great terrorists without remorse). Fact is, suffering is not jewish, it is a problem ofr israelites, though. Many Holy Zion destinees are just here for one or two more births anyway, and the sooner they are purged from the last vestiges of their past karma, the sooner they are back home with Laxmi-Narayana in Holy Zion. Now ya got me jew talkin, and probably someone will call me anti semitic. But what do I care, these fools call Palestinians anti-semitic, even though they themselves are from Russia and Milwaukee and are the most anti-semitic people who ever walked the face of the earth. It just aint kosher to consider your palestinians to be any other tribesmen than the semites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gauracandra Posted November 20, 2001 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2001 At the heart of it they have a dominant matriarchy which is quite admirable ..... This might just be a stereotype, but I have a co-worker who is orthodox jewish. He is very pushy, and likes to take over projects etc.... but it is absolutely hilarious when his wife comes by. She totally bosses him around, yells and screams at him...

Gauracandra Posted November 20, 2001 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2001 At work we were recently discussing how many jewish people there are in the world. We were breaking out the world religions in terms of size, and a number of people had the idea that there were several hundred million jews in the world. Then we found one book, which was like 10 years old, which said there were only like 14 million jews in the world. It is really unfortunate that they always end up the scapegoat. To some degree this is likely due to the influence Christianity has had through the years. In addition, I think it might be a similar phenomenon to how blacks relate to Koreans. In the U.S. Korean Americans tend to band together, pool their resources and start up small businesses in the inner city. Many African Americans lack the unity to pool their resources, and so resent the Koreans who become successful. I think there are parallels to this with respect to how Jews are often treated. As for Jewish devotees being among the brightest, I wouldn't be surprised. I do remember reading one book by some academics that pointed out that almost all of the initial devotees were either Jewish or Catholic. Perhaps it was just the strict Jewish/Catholic upbringing that caused them to rebel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarun Posted November 21, 2001 Report Share Posted November 21, 2001 It's hard to tell how many 'Jews' there really r on this planet. So many changed their names, became atheists, intermarried. Moreover, many Africans now claim to be the real Jews. Some such descendents often demonstrate at Timessquare. We regularly see & hear them nearby our Chanting Party.

Gauracandra Posted November 23, 2001 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2001 Not to be too controversial but there was a book published a few years back called "The Bell Curve" by Charles Murray and another person (who was Jewish). According to them intelligence does have some genetic basis, and they put Asians as on average being the most intelligent. The second most were a group of Jews known to be from Eastern Europe (I can't recall the name). Of course some people may say the co-author was being biased. Who knows? As for beauty, I too have heard this with regard to some jewish women. But then one would have to define beauty which is pretty hard to do Gauracandra PS I too am not Jewish, but I am damn good looking [This message has been edited by Gauracandra (edited 11-23-2001).] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gHari Posted November 26, 2001 Report Share Posted November 26, 2001 White supremacists make me ashamed to be 'white'. This guy makes me ashamed to be a goy. Stupid people should not be allowed to hold opinions, although this would likely be difficult to legislate. Perhaps if we make the Jeopardy answers more difficult, the cereal boxes more esoteric, and video games harder, they would realize their incompetence. Unfortunately the world is full of such idiots; they are killing each other in Afghanistan, Palestine, Ireland and on every street corner in the world.

So Tarun--if you can Muster-up enough 'Healthy Brain' to read on--you might see some Genuine Perspective to this Issue: Shrila Prabhupada had an interesting Room Conversation in regard to a Perfect "Dictator" with Lord Fenner-Brockway in London July 9, 1972: Breaking in on the conversation........ Prabhupada: No, democracy we don't approve. Lord Brockway: We don't...? Devotee: Approve. Lord Brockway: Hm? Devotee: Approve. Lord Brockway: Of what? Devotee: Democracy we don't approve. Lord Brockway: Oh, I approve of it very, very strongly. Very strongly. It must be...It must be the basis of all, of all good. Prabhupada: No, basis... Now, suppose if a people in general, they are not advanced, by their votes, somebody is elected, he may not be also advanced. That is the defect of democracy. Mass of people, they are not advanced. So simply by their vote, if somebody is elected, then they will have to repent. Just like Nixon. He's elected, but these people are again decrying him, that "No, you are not good." So why do you, did you elect him? You elect, and again you reject. That is the defect of democracy. that people are not advanced. They can commit mistake, elect somebody wrong. And then they will lament. This is the defect. But monarchy, as it was approved by the Vedic culture, the monarchy, if the king is first-class, God conscious... A king should be like that. That is the ideal king. They are described in the Bhagavad Gita: rajarshi. The king should be "just like saintly person", although he's king. Rajarshi. (Bg. 4.2). And just like Maharaja Yudhishtira. He was rajarshi. All the kings in those days, they were trained up in such a way that they were saintly persons, although they were the king. Not debauch. So one person, if he's authorized... Just like the communists, they are thinking of dictatorship. This is also another kind of dictatorship. But if the dictator, or the king, is a perfect man, then his dictatorship or royal power is quite... But that, that is not possible at the present moment. But at the present moment, the democracy is also not perfect. Because the mass of people, they have no perfect knowledge. By sentiment. So it may be they're electing a wrong person. That is the defect of democracy. Lord Brockway: No, I'm not saying that democracy as we have it is perfect. I am saying that a people will advance only as it is a reflection of the progress of thepeople themselves, and that they, and that they cannot be changed by an external pressure... Prabhupada: That is not possible. Lord Brockway:...which is dictatorship. And even... Prabhupada: No, dictatorship, I told you... Lord Brockway: And even a, a good dictatorship is a bad thing. I would rather have... Prabhupada: No, how good dictatorship can be a bad thing? Lord Brockway: I would rather have people make mistakes when they had self-government than if you had a dictatorship which didn't make mistakes and imposed it's own... Prabhupada: No, but my proposition is that they should NOT commit, either the king or the elected person should NOT commit mistake. But if you try to educate the mass of people to become educated to elect the right person, that is very difficult. But if a king, a person, is educated nicely, that is easier. That is my point of view. Lord Brockway: Yes. Yes, but the mass of people in poverty, the... Prabhupada: No, everything will be all right. Because the man on the head is perfect, he'll manage, he'll manage. But if he's not perfect, then it is not possible. Therefore the endeavor should be made... Either call it dictator or president or king, it doesn't matter. The man on the top of the executive must be a perfect man. Lord Brockway: Now, in taking your view that all men and women are the children of God, they've got God within them, then the advance of mankind must be by giving the opportunity of God in all men and women. Prabhupada: Yes. Lord Brockway: To come to fulfillment. Prabhupada: Yes. That is our mission. Lord Brockway: And at the present time you haven't got those conditions. Because of inequalities, because of poverty, because of hunger, because of war, you haven't got those conditions. Prabhupada: No, I... Lord Brockway: And therefore, therefore, it is not only the goodness of an individual which you want. You want, combined with the goodness of an individual, of an understanding of the causes... Prabhupada: Yes. Lord Brockway: ...which lead to hunger and poverty and war. Prabhupada: That... Lord Brockway: It's only when you have those two things together... Prabhupada: Yes, we have got... Lord Brockway: ...that you can bring about a solution. Prabhupada: Because people are Godless at the present moment, they're suffering. Lord Brockway: It's not only because of that. Prabhupada: Eh? Lord Brockway: It's not only... Prabhupada: That is the only cause. Lord Brockway: No..., Prabhupada: That we can, that we can give very scientific evidence. That is the only cause. Lord Brockway: No, it's not the only cause. Prabhupada: No, that we have to understand. Lord Brockway: No, please. I know, I know of people who are very God conscious, beautiful people, kind in all their human relations, but they haven't got a beginning of an understanding of how one can bring brotherhood and peace to the world. Prabhupada: Hmmm. Then... Lord Brockway: And therefore, in addition to God consciousness, you must have understanding, knowledge. Prabhupada: Yes, that understanding, that required. So that is needed. People have no opportunity to understand. Just like if you speak... Lord Brockway: Yes. Prabhupada: ...they'll talk of universal brotherhood, but they'll send the poor animals to the slaughterhouse. Lord Brockway: They...? Prabhupada: To the slaughterhouse. Devotee: Animals. Prabhupada: Animals. Lord Brockway: Yes. Prabhupada: That means they have no right understanding of universal brotherhood. Lord Brockway: No. With that I agree. Prabhupada: Yes. So what is the use of talking of universal brotherhood when you actually do not treat like that? Lord Brockway: Yes. Prabhupada: But that is due to his lack of God consciousness. He'll talk very high words, but practically he cannot do it. Devotee: No information. Prabhupada: Yes, no information. Just like the commu... Even in communist country. They, they are thinking that national, everything should be national. So what is the meaning of national? Means any living entity born in that country is national. So why the poor animals are not nationals? That is, means lack of God consciousness. He does not know. He thinks simply human being national. Lord Brockway: Oh, I agree. I'm a vegetarian. [and he was born in 1886! Prabhupada in 1896] Prabhupada: [laughs] Thank you. Hare Krishna. So this is all due to lack of God consciousness. Therefore the only remedy is to make people God conscious, thoroughly, perfectly. Then everything will be all right. Lord Brockway: That I don't accept. God consciousness plus understanding. Prabhupada: Now, God conscious means understanding. Without understanding, how there can be God consciousness? Lord Brockway: And you, you may easily have a person who is very God conscious, beautiful in their own lives, beautiful to all the group around them, who have no understanding of the problems of the world at all. Prabhupada: That is not perfect God conscious. That is partial. END So let's Pray to Lord Narahari for such a Situation! PS: Please remember this: Prabhupada: "No, everything will be all right. Because the man on the head is perfect, he'll manage, he'll manage. But if he's not perfect, then it is not possible. Therefore the endeavor should be made... EITHER CALL IT DICTATOR OR PRESIDENT OR KING, IT DOESN'T MATTER. The man on the top of the executive MUST be a perfect man." It could happen by the Grace of Lord Sri Chaitanya and the Mercy of Shrila Prabhupada, to defeat this Kali Yuga's heavy influence 'The Illuminati--The New World Order' could "Fit" this Perfect 'Position'!

Tarun Posted November 27, 2001 Report Share Posted November 27, 2001 gHariji & Donji, I'm no Aryan... except for my slight connection to PrabhupAd & ZrIdhardev. If u disagree with Julius, let him know. His website is posted there. Some of what Donji wrote is conditioned emotion, insubstantial. One thing for sure: We're in Kaliyuga. BhAgavatam 1.1.10 describes Kaliyuga jIvas' predominant qualities. We're not at all hard to fool. A cinch. So many so-called 'unsolved' easy to solve assassinations: JFK, X, MLK, RFK, ACBSP, Lennon... So many 'unsolved' terrorist acts. So many witnesses not allowed to testify. Some know what really happened 9/11. You don't. They do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some know what really happened 9/11. You don't. They do. All Glories to Shrila Prabhupada So what "I" said is "conditioned emotion,(sic) insubstantial"! Could you be a 'Sport' and Explain WHY? Could you also Explain why you would even re-post anti-semite trash? As part of that--please Inform us how THAT was NOT "conditioned emotional and, insubstantial"! I have to ask--why are you so Limited in your Interpretations of Global Administration? Do you possibly think that our World an go on with Regional Imballances in everything from Economy to Political Rule. You KNOW it is Kali Yuga, an Ocean of Faults--[by your own admission]--so how can YOU then be against the something that HAS to Happen (Global Adimistration on a Proper Platform) to 'Check the Certain Advance' of ever increasing "godlessness"--and its reactions. You have given some List of Names--that they were put away somehow by the NWO--well again you do not see that it is the Material Modes of Nature and Karma that "gruel-out" these things. Placing Shrila Prabhupada in that 'List' was--IN VERY POOR TASTE. Where is your Evidence: Within the Framework of some Twisted Over-Complicated 'Conspirocy Theory'! Did you know that 'Theories' are a Waste of Time? If I sound Pompus and Emotional to you it is only a 'Reflecting of what your are Projecting' to the World.....
