"Why?", the essential question

This comment was posted to both Asia Times Online and PJ Media where G*ldman/Sp*ngler publishes, in this case: "How Anti-Semitism Became Respectable Again".
But someone(G*ldman?) couldn't handle it and the comment was deleted from both sites.  Fortunately Disqus saved it.  So I've retrieved it and will repost it with asterisks -- * -- to avoid the moderation filters,...hopefully. 
Poor Mr. G*ldman, and oh, the poor long-suffering Jews! (Just to be clear, I'm an American and a Jew, and proud of both.) The post-holocaust sympathy, and media prohibition against criticism of Jewish behavior -- historic and current -- has come to an end. The internet has set it free. The truth is out, and no amount of tedious argumentation can keep it from the (all-important) American eyeballs. The wind of truth blows away the smoke of propaganda no matter how abundant.
The question is so obvious, so logical, so clearly the proverbial "elephant in the room". It is among the first questions learned by every human baby. It is the basis for all questions, the basis of curiosity, the starting point of all understanding, the starting point for the unfolding of all that is human. One simple word: "Why?" About everything in the universe, the need to understand begins with "why?" Because, as Shakespeare observed:
"...he that made us with such large discourse, looking before and after, gave us not that capability and godlike reason to fust in us unused."
Yet Mr. G*ldman insists that we must not ask "Why?" He insists rather that we must suppress our quest for the truth, and compel our "godlike reason to fust in us unused."
Not gonna happen. So, Masada-like in its hopelessness, G*ldman's quest -- "Move right along, nothing to see here." -- fails. And so, from behind the smoke, the question emerges:
***"WHY?"***
"Why are the Jews hated?
Why have they been hated by practically everyone on the planet for their entire five-thousand year history?
*** What do they do to provoke this hatred?***
The answer, from a source of unimpeachable moral integrity, can be found here:
"Concerning the Jews" by Mark Twain
(Read it at least twice, because the enchantment spun by this literary masterpiece must, on first reading, distract from the facts presented. On second reading, note the remarkable fairness, and note the facts.) Here is the answer to "Why?"
Enjoy.

9/11: Saudis, Israelis, and Zionist captivity

From:  Sens. Graham, McCain Unveil Plan to Weaken Saudi 9/11 Bill http://news.antiwar.com/2016/11/30/sens-graham-mccain-unveil-plan-to-weaken-saudi-911-bill/ My reply to pensword re Saudi/Israeli involvement in 9/11: I agree, both the Saudi and Israeli govts were involved: the Saudis in financing and the Israelis in "shepherding". A separate, overarching, and much more difficult matter however, is the subversion of the US govt by the Israelis. The Neocons -- Israeli agents -- currently control the Executive(Trump may boot them, we shall see.), and AIPAC -- Israeli agents -- has for many years maintained ownership of the House and Senate. Breaking out of Zionist "captivity" is a yuuuge challenge. Consider, its mention is taboo in the MSM media, dangerous in the alternate media, and a life destroying, career-killing offense in politics, media, academia, commerce,... hell, across the spectrum of civil and cultural participation. The Jews have once aga...

re censorship at antiwar.com

Really, Thomas? Who is the drama queen here? You're embarrassing yourself with this name calling. My comment disappeared. What am I to think, you're on a coffee break? So I posted the link to my backup, my all-but-invisible, low-traffic,... make that no-traffic,... blog. The "rules" you cite give the Jews a free pass on their complicity in the Zionist project. It's ok to criticize Zionism or Israel, but not the Jews that make their crimes possible. That appears to be the rule, and it amounts to Antiwar.com caving to Jewish/Zionist intimidation. It may be discretion -- as in "discretion is the better part of valor" -- but absent the lethality of bullets-and-bombs-combat, it's cowardly. It was cowardly then, as it is cowardly now. That said, it ***IS*** Justin's website and he gets to decide on when "discretion" -- strategic restraint -- is called for. I've had this issue since before you were moderator. Someone Jewis...

The (((truth)))) you are not allowed to tell.

Below is my reply to a “Jackie Chiles for president”  comment to this article on antiwar.com: https://news.antiwar.com/2024/05/16/zelensky-blames-the-world-for-russias-kharkiv-offensive/ Here is the "Jackie Chiles for president" comment: "Anyone that's not Russian on here, or paid by the Chinese? This place is scary, can we at least add a few pacifists, Nazi's, nihilist's and communists to balance the dialogue? RFK? I'm not even sure what he is. I'm against senseless wars and wasted national budgets to fund a war for elitist interests too but not at the cost of a world run by Xi and Putin. If you cheer lead those clowns, seek help. "What kind of an idiot are you? Where does this insane hostility towards Xi and Putin come from? ... that you've swallowed hook line and sinker?" ... and below is my response.  The issue which provokes my preserving and publishing the comment here is the series of triple parentheses, which are indications that...
