Podcast is wondering what Deborah Lipstadt is going to do about anti-Semitism next

This week SNN's senior editor for anti-Semitic affairs, Tom Paine, interviews well known American academic, Professor Deborah Lipstadt about the resurgence of anti-semitism worldwide, and why it's not just Jews who should be afraid. This is the first of a two part interview with the woman made famous when she defended herself in a libel trial brought by Holocaust denier, David Irving.

You can find her book on the case here: History on Trial: My Day in Court with David Irving and her blog is to be found at lipstadt.blogspot.com.

It really is true, the British Police have been infiltrated and nobody can sack those involved. More details in the Daily Mail.

You can find more information about John Smeaton and his beer drive at www.johnsmeaton.com.

Doug Payton is helping out Al Qaeda with some suggestions for their next video. You can find more of his work here.

Deborah Lipstadt seems to think that the primary teaching of Christianity is that the "Jews killed Christ".

Well I have been to churches, studied the bible, and been around believing Christians my whole life. And I have never heard anything other than the belief that "we" (humanity as a whole) killed Christ.

Furthermore, if Christ can forgive us for killing him, we should also forgive those who transgress against us. Why do you think that we rebuilt Germany and Japan after WWII? Why do you think we are trying to rebuild Iraq? It is because we are following the teachings of Christian theology.

I am sure that bad people have used the fact that Christ was killed in Israel, to whip up hatred against the Jews, among ignorant people. But she should naming names, and not smearing Christianity as a whole.

I think the Bible is very clear that the Jews killed Christ. It is currently very unpopular to have this view, but the "whited sepulchurs" the Priests, the angry crowd of Jerusalem were all Jews. Pilate sent him to Herod the jewish King who was too cowardly to handle the MAN.

As far as the the reason..we never had any problems in the Near east until this Israel country usurped land from the local inhabitants. This caused an alignment of pro Palestine and Zionist. It is no secret that our government is run by people of the Jewish faith. I dont speak of the talking heads, but the real power. Hollywood, Advertising, THE News agencys. Almost every major CEO in America is Jewish. I know you will just write this off as anti semetism. But who were the Communists? The Bolsheviks? Almost 90% jewish. The Jews have always supported the left. This is not anti Jewishness. I love Jews. This is anti Zionism. You must be able to distinguish, something Lipshitz has never been able to do. David Irving is taught at every major college in the world. I never heard of this persn until she sued Irving.
