Antisemitism Goes Hand-in-Hand With Societal Decay

In 1994, our family took its first international trip, going to visit family on both sides who lived in England.

We were met at the airport by my wife's older cousin, Johnny, who was a successful London architect.

Much of my wife's extended family, including Johnny, were able to escape Nazi Germany.

Johnny's mother had gone to the Berlin airport in the late Thirties with her children and boldly boarded a flight to London with no papers, persuading them that her family's lives were at stake - and amazingly, they were let on board and into England.

Britain did well by Johnny's family and he in turn did well by Britain, gracing London and other towns with his buildings.

On our visit, we stayed with Johnny in the Mill Hill area of London and went with him to his synagogue - which he had designed - on the Sabbath.

Our government spouts Hamas lies, lies that it knows are lies, to persuade Americans that Israel ought to give those poor Hamas guys the same kind of second chance that we blue states routinely afford to those such as the killer of Laterria Smith's son, the good folks pushing people onto the subway tracks in NYC, and the guy who was just turned loose in the Big Apple after randomly slamming a woman in the face and breaking her jaw.
