My God? I’m an atheist.

I guess you don’t know how it feels to lose a great-grandfather in a pogrom before WWI and the toll just gets bigger. Jews don’t enjoy being victims, and I won’t be childish and list all the positive things we have done in the face of oppression

I don’t know who made you the arbiter of all things taking pot shots but I sure would like to see your credentials.

And the comment about my God sure sounded sneering to me. But you’re definitely right. Anti-Semitism doesn’t exist. We’re just a bunch of whiny Jews.
