Cameron: State multiculturalism has failed

[sasguru]

Forget the extreme example. You mentioned my original statement and said that it was anti-semitic.

It isn't. You're incorrect in your interpretation.

Any generalised negative statement about a group of people is racist* (antisemitic in this case). And you made one.
Either you are thick or disingenuous.
Which is it?

*Not to mention unintelligent.

[Churchill]

OK, in the interest of some kind of harmony, I am genuinely puzzled, and struggle to reconcile your view about the Jewish people (and it isn't a nice one) with your claim to be anti-semitic. I am not being mischievous - I just cannot see why someone who is not prejudiced agaist Jews would come out with that.

You don't know what my view is of Jewish people. You've made an assumption and I've told you that your assumption is wrong.

Multiple conversations... the extreme example was to demostrate how it is possible to recognise anti-semitism without an expert knowledge of Jewish religion or culture.

In the interest of closing this altogether. What is your definition of "anti-semitism"?

I'm quoting this for posterity as it's a classic example of your need to post derogatory statements even when they show your ignorance.

You don't know what my view is of Jewish people.

Yes we do.
By your own words: you claimed that they "use" non-Jews.
So that must be your view of Jewish people

I do know something of your view of Jewish people. I know that you think:

'They're in it for themselves. If you're a Gentile you're there to be used.'

If you are not anti-semitic (and I have sai I accept I may be wrong) can you not see how you are likely to appear anti-semitic with that statement?

I would define anti-semitism as prejudice against Jewish people.

And where is my predjudice against Jews and where particular in my statement?

Try to address the issue instead of side-stepping it.
Your comments are there in black and white.
They are pretty clear and unambiguous.

End of story.

[Mich the Tester]

End of story.

I'll bet you 50p it isn't.

I'm discussing the issue with the original poster, not someone who has decided to join the fray to try and make himself look good.

You're failing miserably, now kindly stop interrupting.
