		<description>Hello All and just  to be fair... definition&quot; Antiesmitism stands for any group or religion who degrades the other and DOES NOT STAND ONLY FOR THE JEWISH COMMUNITY.&quot;

Isnt that also a DENIAL and for sure thats being antisemist more then anything!!</description>

		<description>Lognhornpapa says:

Could someone (that is rational, I hope) please explain to my feeble mind what is it about the Jews that causes so much and such virulent hatred?
=================================

Gladly, its actually pretty simple to understand. The Jewish people historically &amp; to this day. Value Education &amp; organized social structure this leads to prosperity thru joined efforts both privately &amp; community based. Trade &amp; commerce follows. People will always hate those that have it better than them, and in europe(400ad-1800ad) the jews seem to always prosper with there education, embrace of science, laws, &amp; cleanliness(food prep &amp; bathing). 
As much as people like to believe that it has something to do with the death of &quot;Jesus Christ&quot;, which many now also believe is just a fabrication of the &quot;jewish conspiracy&quot;....     

At this point there are about 15 million jews left worldwide, I&#039;m afraid the next holocaust will most likely be in the USA. Its scary, but the neo-con controlled media(TV &amp; talk radio) will most likely start attacking Jews at some point soon....   I hope I&#039;m wrong about that....</description>

		<description>People seem to misunderstand the concept of free speech on in a private forum like facebook...    You don&#039;t have free speech, that only applies in a public forum. Which facebook is not, doesn&#039;t anyone read the fine print anymore?    

Holocaust deniers?   I had great aunts &amp; uncles with numbers on there arms.
Also lived next to an old german couple many years ago...I heard a few disturbing things over tea, I wish I hadn&#039;t actually...humans can be such disgusting animals...</description>

		<description>I am 100% for free speech, as long as it does not endorse killing people or animals anymore than Ann Coulter or a meat farmer. 
 
Why? 
 
Because I am a gay, atheist, vegetarian, and DO NOT want ANYONE telling me I cannot post/say whatever I want, as long as I do not endorse violence any more than Ann Coulter.

		<description>There is no excuse for hate.  To hide it behind free speech is preposterous. Think how many people would not be starving or murdered if there wasn&#039;t hate. </description>

		<description>i dunno. seems like one short step from denying these holocaust-denial groups to then denying whole swathes of groups. for example, much of  the conservative right views pro-choice discussion as a hate crime against the unborn. likewise, pro-choicers may view far-right anti-choice discussions as hate speech against women (as much of it in fact happens to be). it&#039;s a slippery slope to start making value judgments on a case-by-case basis and shutting down groups. can the carnivores then shut down the vegan groups, and vice versa? what about all these mafia quiz games on FB? aren&#039;t they promoting negative italian stereotypes, and thereby deserve to be axed? 
 
i agree completely with you that these holocaust denial groups are often thinly veiled (if veiled at all) anti-semitic groups. but there are a lot of anti-various-things groups on facebook, and i for one don&#039;t want some kind of corporate oversight as to what should and should not be allowed to exist. 
 
fight fire with fire, i think. start your own group, the anti-holocaust-denial group, and shine a light on the idiocy that is preached in those rooms. infiltrate the group with an undercover profile, and tell the world what is being said there. if enough people listen, they will eventually have to shut themselves down, rather than having anybody do it for them. it takes more work that way than trying to turn facebook into some kind of authoritarian father-figure, but it&#039;s also a lot less dangerous.

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Or would we rather it was discussed in the open on Facebook where people&#8217;s real names and their photo is associated with it for their friends, peers, and colleagues to see?&#8221;&lt;/i&gt; 
 
I can&#039;t buy into this argument for a variety of reasons. There is an assumption here that these people are using their real names and that somehow exposure will lead to their being shamed into changing their minds or being treated as pariahs. 
 
That is a slippery slope to tread upon. Not all ideas are moral, some ideologies are morally superior to others. 
 
There is no reason to give a platform and venue to hate mongers. They make it far too easy for these people to find each other.

		<description>I agree.  Hate speech is not an open debate.  When people offer no facts, they are simply lying.  We don&#039;t want to say it&#039;s OK to lie about a whole class of people or events.  This has NO place in social networking.  People who hate people cause of their nationality or something else they can&#039;t change are not usually very social people anyways.

		<description>The discrimination is by design. It is the way the physical and astral worlds work. Inequality is essential to the &quot;orderly&quot; running of the world. The ruling elite want to keep class distinction alive in order to keep themselves on top and to assure that they will have others under their control. People are basically born to a class, where they will remain for their entire lives. Occasionally, people move up or down the social ladder. Again, these are the exception, not the rule. </description>
