A Reader Criticizes Sam Francis
And Leonard Glickman
From: Wolfgang Zernik
Sam Francis should read his own links. For example
the article he quoted, in
Mass Immigration Eats Through The Melting Pot,
from the Forward:
Debate Raging On Immigration
From this article, Francis quotes Hebrew Immigrant
Aid Society CEO Leonard Glickman as saying "The more
diverse American society is the safer [Jews]
are."
What Francis fails to mention is that the whole
thrust of the Forward article is that Glickman's
view is no longer typical of Jewish opinion. Just look
at the title! And here is the first sentence:
"One year after the
September 11 terrorist attacks, a fierce debate has
broken out within some central bodies in the Jewish
organizational world over the community's traditional
support for open immigration."
Sam Francis wants to argue that the Jewish community
is still today playing a crucial role in
pushing for mass immigration. In support for that
position he quotes an article that states exactly
the opposite. No wonder he has asked me to stop
commenting on his articles, I must be a real pain in the neck from his perspective!
Leonard Glickman is an old fellow and a voice from
the past. His view that immigration is "good for the
Jews" never made any sense even in the old days and
today it is absolutely insane.
As for the "Anglo-Protestant core" I am all in
favor of it. American Jews in recent times have
prospered enormously under the core's benevolence and
most of us know it. On a personal note, I might mention
that half my family is Anglo-Protestant at this point
and I am hardly alone in this respect.
It is time to abandon the stereotype.
