Is it because the Jews convinced the Romans to crucify Jesus?  No; many who hate the Jews also hate Christianity.  Is it because of Jews like Saul Alinsky, George Soros, Bernie Sanders, Sigmund Freud, Herbert Marcuse and many others?  Partially, perhaps, but many who hate the Jews have never heard of these men. Why is it that Jew hatred seems to go hand-in-hand with communism, progressivism, socialism or whatever else you wish to label the Left. Soviet style socialism hated Jews. National Socialism (Nazi) hated Jews and modern progressive socialism as found on American university campuses hates Jews.  People and places who possess pride in economic growth and wealth creation get on well with Jews.  Hatred of the free-market and loathing of wide spread individual prosperity seems to go together with hating Jews.  The more left a country leans the more likely it is to hate Israel.  Today’s show explains this bizarre pattern that is so much a part of today’s geopolitics.
