Jewish Triumphalism.Our tribal customs have become the core of your moral code. Our tribal laws have furnished the basic groundwork of all your august constitutions and legal systems. Our legends and our folk-tales are the sacred lore which you croon to your infants. Our poets have filled your hymnals and your prayer-books. Our national history has become an indispensable part of the learning of your pastors and priests and scholars. Our kings, our statesmen, our prophets, our warriors are your heroes. Our ancient little country is your Holy Land. Our national literature is your Holy Bible. What our people thought and taught has become inextricably woven into your very speech and tradition, until no one among you can be called educated who is not familiar with our racial heritage.
Jewish artisans and Jewish fishermen are your teachers and your saints, with countless statues carved in their image and innumerable cathedrals raised to their memories. A Jewish maiden is your ideal of motherhood and womanhood. A Jewish rebel-prophet is the central figure in your religious worship. We have pulled down your idols, cast aside your racial inheritance, and substituted for them our God and our traditions. No conquest in history can even remotely compare with this clean sweep of our conquest over you.

Those are interesting sentiments. What do you make of them? -

Re: Jewish Triumphalism.This.(Original post by TimeWalker)
Things we value today come from various sources through history including Greece, Rome, Egypt, Persia etc. as well as the Judeo-Christian bible.
We are influenced by far more sources than simply the Judeo culture and religion. -

Re: Jewish Triumphalism.Agree with the others in this thread, whilst we have of course inherited a lot from our Judeo-Christian ancestors, it seems a tad selective to imply that they were the only ones that have influenced modern day culture
But whatever, if it gives Jewish people a hard on to read that diatribe, so be it

Re: Jewish Triumphalism.Oh shut up. Jews have done more for humanity than you ever will.
Despite their enormous contributions to humanity, Jews have been very humble about their achievements and magnanimous in the face of their treatment by others.

Re: Jewish Triumphalism.Well you're comparing a whole religion to one person so I think there's a slight disadvantage.(Original post by Dirac Delta Function)

Re: Jewish Triumphalism.Well this was written in 1928.
It may have been written in reaction to the increasing anti-Semitic sentiment.
Remember that Hitler laid out his plans for racial divisions and hatred for the jews in Mein Kampf. This was published in 1925 and 1926. It sold over 1 million copies.
Hitler was on the rise at this time in history. By 1930 Nazi party had a ton of reichstag seats.
We all know what happened next....
The passage you quoted is clearly a reaction to this anti-semitism.Last edited by im TSR; 13-07-2012 at 20:43. -

Re: Jewish Triumphalism.Guess they deserve to give themselves a pat on the back between periods of being viciously persecutued.
Everyone enjoys bigging up their own culture. Irish, scots, greeks, french, russians, italians etc etc.
Doesn't mean any of those groups are actually controlling the world. -
