Whoa--I never said you were antisemitic! I was just pointing out that your
tone was derogatory. OTOH, it may well be justified if you've met mainly
idiots who happen to be Orthodox Jews. Being Orthodox does not mean that a
person has functioning brain cells or has thought deeply about anything.

What I was saying in my earlier posting was not about wallowing in
collective guilt but not dismissing the issue altogether, with a flippant
comment. These things still have to be discussed from time to time, no
matter how sick we are of hearing about them.

Best wishes,
