I have been following the daily column of Roger Cohen in the New York Times for years. Roger is a south african jew and self-described liberal zionist – who never hesitates to condemn the Israeli government for it’s divisive, cruel policies which he believes are against the longterm interests of the security of Israel.
You should know, dear reader, that the south african jews were the most militant of all whites in their opposition to & confrontation with the evil Apartheid regime – for which many suffered years on Robben Island with Madiba.
Now I hear increasingly here in France condemnation of immigrants – described as parasites, living off the state at the expense of the french population ie whites.
So I thought Roger’s quote from Leviticus to be most apt for all of us:
« Treat the stranger as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. »
