In particular this part...

The point is this: we no longer have to plead—to the left or the right or the Islamists or the nativists or to anyone else. If Britain—or Belgium or France or Sweden for that matter—wants to hound its Jews, that’s too bad, and it would leave these countries Judenrein and scrubbed of any claim on the heritage of the Enlightenment. But try to really mess with Jews, and you’ll learn the real lesson of Zionism’s triumph: we can defend ourselves now, and, if needed, will do so with great and glorious fury.

You would take that away from Jews, making us all dependent once again on the countries hosting us.

That hasn't turned out well historically, for thousands of years.

But that's what you're advocating & it's very bad for Jews who you seem to forget also have human rights. The right to live, prosper, and be protected.

Conditions for Jews are only getting worse throughout Europe, including Scandinavian countries (that's you BTW). I find it amusing that people in countries where Jews are being attacked believe they know what's best for Jews - and that the situation before 1948 when Jews had no home or defense is what's best.

That takes a helluva lot of chutzpah, you know?
