Throw The Jew Down The Well

So if anybody thought that there was no more antisemitism in America, you are sorely mistaken. We all are aware of the recent Borat movie and some of the craziness and whackiness it includes, but what we may not realize from the film itself is that antisemitism is alive and well right here in our own backyards. In the film, most of the antisemitism takes place either by Borat himself or outside the counrty - i.e. the running of the Jew in Kazakhstan.

However, a clip that was cut frim the movie, but that can be seen on www.youtube.com, shows that there is plenty of hatred toward jews here in america as well. Borat visits a country bar and decides he wants t operform his version of a country song. The name of the song is In My Country There is Problem. In the first verse of the song, the country's problem is transport (transportation). This dosn't seem like anything crazy and the bar's audience chuckles a bit.

The rest of the song, however, is a ranting about the problem is the Jew and that the Jew must be thrown down the well in order to free Borat's country. Not only is the song crazy, but the entire bar starts to join in with Borat singing together. I will admit, I thought the song was absolutely hilarious, but it still shows the sadness of the world that people can still hold hatred for someone simply because of their skin color or their beliefs.

Why are people so ignorant and stupid as to not learn to love others as human beings and nothing else but that? If these southern folks are so religious, why don't they see Jews or blacks or asians or anybody else as creations of G-d? Do they really think minorities are some alien being that they can treat like dirt? If we truly want to improve the education system in America, I think it needs to start with this topic. We wil never be able to learn together if we can not learn to live together.
