The left wingers particularly the angry blacks in Chicago are hateful anti-semites. Historically the Jewish claim to Palestine goes back thousands of years. The Palestinians are an invented people. Development of arid ,unproductive lands by Jews brought workers from other Arab nations anxious for opportunities. Just remember that Jews remained in the area 500 years or more after the destruction of the Temple until the new followers of Mohammed instituted taxes and discrimination of the Jewish residents. That led to their displacement. Moslems have a long history of intolerance and of treating other peoples as Dhimmis- second class citizens who had to pay oppressive taxes and endure discrimination. The Jews were allowed only certain professions or jobs such as moneylending and engaging in skilled work which was needed. aLSO, due to a higher level of education they had positions which were in demand such as advisors to certain sheiks who were more lenient. Nevertheless, the majority were kept in poverty and with few options for advancement.
