Dear Friends,
Here's a good one I received from my Philly cousin:
The wonderful comic, Sam Levinson, had a great answer to anti-Semites:
"It's a free world and you don't have to like Jews, but if you DON'T, I suggest that you boycott certain Jewish products, like .....
The Wasserman Test for syphilis, Digitalis, discovered by Doctor Nuslin, Insulin, discovered by Doctor Minofsky, Chloral Hydrate, discovered by Doctor Lifreich, The Schick Test for Diphtheria, Vitamins, discovered by Doctor Funk, Streptomycin, discovered by Doctor Woronan, The Polio Pill by Doctor Sabin, and the Polio Vaccine by Doctor Jonas Salk.
Go on, boycott!
Humanitarian consistency requires that my people offer all these gifts to all people of the world. Fanatic consistency requires that all bigots accept Syphilis, Diabetes, Convulsions, Malnutrition, Infantile Paralysis and Tuberculosis as a matter of principal.
You want to be mad at us? Be mad at us!
But I'm telling you, you ain't going to feel so good...
And I would add:
Whoever attacks the Jewish people, men or ideologies, ends like Hitler, Stalin, Haman, the Roman Empire, the Ottoman Empire, the British Empire, the Nazi Third Reich, the Communistic Empire and mind you very soon, the evolving Empire of Islamic States of Terror.
