I have great respect for all people whether they are Jew, Muslim,
Christian, Buddhist or whatever. But, I must relate an incident
yesterday.
We were in NE London and my wife was taking a very innocent photo of a
squirrel up a tree. We happened to be outside a synagogue. A Jewish man, driving
a car, stopped us and asked us to stop taking photos. My wife was very
angry. Clearly the person was fearing we were taking photos with a view
to attacking the synagogue. Nothing could have been further from our
minds.
If any race in the UK wants to minimise risks they should blend into our culture
and not try to be a race apart: NE London is full of Hassidic Jewish
people in their unique dress. In 15 minutes of trying, I managed to get 2
Jews to acknowledge my existence. They prefer to live separate lives.
No, the Jewish community is its own worst enemy sadly.
One of my good friends is Jewish. In my illness she has been kindness itself.
By the way I managed to shake hands with the man. Shalom my friend.
