This Day in Jewish History

For amusement, here are a few samples from the July 9th entry in This Day In Jewish History.      http://thisdayinjewishhistory.blogspot.com/

These people really are impressed with themselves.  No trial or tribulation or triumph or thought or turmoil or whatever, however small and insignificant, escapes being recorded and cherished.   

1877: Henry Hilton wrote a letter to a friend of his in Chicago defending his decision to ban Jews as guest at the Grand Union Hotel in Saratoga Springs, NY.  Hilton said that he had expected some "adverse criticism" when he made the decision.  The new hotel had been completed at great expense and if he did not ban Jews, he would lose "other and more valuable guests." He did not fear a boycott of his businesses by the Jews and said that if the reverse were done the Jews would be the ultimate losers.  As far as Hilton knew, the law allowed an owner to ban whomsoever he wished notwithstanding all of the objections from "Moses and all his descendants."   

1891: "A Home For The Jews" published today described a meeting "held at Lemberg, the capital of Galacia between Arnold White representing Baron Hirsch, Herr Franzos representing the Jews of Berlin, and Dr. Karunda" representing the Jews of Vienna where the trio agreed that it would be best to direct Jews fleeing Europe to settlements in Argentina especially since no plans can be developed for settling Jews in Palestine.
   

1891: Charles Stern, a New York peddler who went to Brazil claiming to be a farmer, wrote a letter complaining that the government had not given him farm but had put him to work on railroad construction "compelling him to work like a slave."   

1896: It was reported today that Lord Rosebery's marriage to "a wealthy Jewess at time when his finances were at the lowest ebb...was sufficient to spoil his chances with the working classes" which has sealed his political doom.
     

1902: Another interview with Lord Rothschild takes place during which Herzl submits the details of Colonization Company for the development of Sinai, El Arish and Cyprus. Rothschild promises to discuss the plan with the British Minister for the Colonies, Joseph Chamberlain.   

And, last but not least, there's this:   

2013: Paula "Abdul was a guest judge on So You Think You Can Dance."

About August 5, 1883, the "This day in jewish history" website gives us the quote below.   

However, it doesn't tell us why the mortality rates of Catholics and Protestants are greater than the jews.  Why is it?  It's because the fucking jews start wars that cause Catholics and Protestants to kill each other, of course, while the jews watch on and cash in. 

1883: "The Scientific Gossip" column published today explained earlier comments by M.G. Lagneau about the differences in birthrates between Catholics, Protestants and Jews. Although Jews have a lower birthrate than the other two religions, there mortality rate "is remarkably low" a condition  attributed to their religious dietetic and hygienic regulations, early marriages, the fact that most Jewish women do not work out of the home and "general sobriety."

A few examples, from August 16th, of what these self-important bastards consider their "history."
