"Why Are Jews Liberals?"

I review Norman Podhoretz's new book here in VDARE.com.

Comment upon it below.

All the others look like "normal" white people and the only way you'd know they are Jewish is if they told you. Two of them have red hair. In general you could set them down in the middle of Kansas, England, or Germany and they'd blend right in with everyone else.

Obviously it's subjective. Ashkenazi in general are white-looking enough if you aren't looking closely. And we all know how wicked looking closely is.

If you're looking, the differences become more salient.

Yawn. I grew up with Jews, best friends, girlfriends, school, workplaces etc. etc. etc. etc. Sorry, but "ordinary, down-to-earth" people would not be high on a list of my descriptions of Jewish people.

"Hasids and the Amish dress basically the same.

If you took groups of both of them and shuffled them around, you would still be able to distinguish between them."

Even if true, that doesn't help unless you can't look like "normal" white people without looking like the Amish.

A more outdoors, active lifestyle for the Amish or a great number of red-headed Hasids in the groups to be compared would be enough to make a distinction.

"I think many, if not most, American Jews do believe their liberalism to be genuine, but their behavior tells another story..."

If only.

The Sailer's an "obsessive anti-Semite" comment was posted by a commenter at View from the Right. I thought this was an irresponsible comment. I also think that VFR's editor should have corrected this person. They just threw Steve into the David Duke category.

And us into the ilk category!

Anyone: let's start a trash-talk blog where we take our flaming. Call it "Sailer's Ilk."
