ed note–like Sarah Silverman’s infamous ‘comedy’ skit where she put a dog between her legs and simulated having sex with it, likewise, this is what you get from these people. Dozens of victims are lying in the morgue in the aftermath of the bombings in Brussels, and what is the Judaic reaction to it? –‘Hey, let’s make a joke out of it’.

Now, if it were Halloween or some other festive event, and some Gentile somewhere dressed up as Hitler, Himmler, or even Titus, the Roman general responsible for the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D., everyone knows what the reaction would be to THAT.
