"When the non-Jew encounters the Jew, he is, consciously or subconsciously, struck by a richness of spirit, a depth of living, a resonance of eternity and an echo of the divine that is not easily described, but very palpable. There is something about the Jew that is larger than life, and the non-Jew feels it, sometimes more acutely than the Jew...

Few things are as unbearable and as frightening as the recognition of your [non-Jewish] life being insignificant and meaningless...

The gentile, instinctively and accurately, feels the "otherness" of the Jew; the non-Jew innately senses the holiness embedded within the Jewish soul. When the Jew denies this holiness, when the Jew, embarrassed by his Judaism, tells the world, "I am just like you," the non-Jew [accurately] senses a lie, a secret conspiracy, and he despises the Jew even more."

-- Rabbi Yosef Jacobson, Israel National News *

We feel it, alright. But it's more like the echo of a bad lunch.

If the Aryan Nations or the Nation of Islam or any other group posted a racist screed like this, there would be no end to the howling from the "liberal" thought police. Yet, the Jewish Nation does it routinely, without a peep of protest. This "divine race" mythology -- and the racist discrimination it supports -- is the very essence of the Talmud and Zionism.
