I came across a book published in 1783 in England, called "A Call to the Jews, from a Friend of the Jews."
The anonymous author makes his intentions clear at the start:
Dear Brethren,
AS fellow creatures, and many of you as fellow Britons the benevolent design of this address to you is to persuade you to become fellow Christians. In my humble opinion, I cannot evince more, to your and my own satisfaction, my love and friendship for you, than by endeavouring to convince you, from the testimony of your own prophecies, delivered by God to your forefathers, that the suffering Jesus of the Christians was your Messiah, of the seed of David, and that your dispersion throughout all lands, as strangers and sojourners, will continue, so as that you will not be able to obtain a settlement, or the rights of citizenship, in any part of the earth, till you believe in, and acknowledge the first past advent of your Messiah.
The nature of his "love and friendship" is more explicit later on.
Be assured then, you will still be outcasts from every civil community on the face of the earth, till you believe that the crucified Jesus was your predicted Messiah.If you don't want to be hated, then just abandon Judaism and all will be well!
See how much the author loves Jews?
This attitude continues today, but instead of coming from mainstream Christians, it comes from the anti-Zionist Left. They love Jews - as long as they abandon their land and their people!
Nothing antisemitic about that!
Jews can join their causes - as long as they denounce the 90+% of Jews who believe that a Jewish state is important.
It is all out of love!
Many Muslims also let us know that they like the Jews as well, as long as they accept that Muslims are their natural protectors and Jews must pay a tax and make publicly clear that they are second-class citizens. If they refuse, well, it is their own fault they don't follow the rules and they must accept their inevitable and deserved punishment. Just like the poor Jews of England of 1783 who refuse to accept Christianity are doomed to never be accepted as members of society.
Amazing how everyone loves the Jews - as long as the Jews abandon their own beliefs and millennia-old aspirations.
The only people who admit they hate the Jews (at least in the West) are the far right antisemites. All the other antisemites are really Jew lovers - as long as the Jews meekly do what these Jew-lovers demand they do.
But it is all for their own good. It is all out of friendship and love. They aren't antisemitic - just ask them!
We have lots of ideas, but we need more resources to be even more effective. Please donate today to help get the message out and to help defend Israel.
