Title: History of the Jews of the Caribbean
Post by: Confederate Kahanist on July 11, 2012, 12:21:27 AM
I think if it wasn't for the Jews. there wouldn't have been much of a civilization in the Caribbean:

Without Jews there wouldn't be much civilization anywhere. The Bible is a civilizing force more than anything else. Without it the world is a dark place full of human sacrifice and other violent pagan practices.

When I was eight years old my father had some work to do in Jamaica. He took my mother, my brother, and I to visit Jamaica. One of my vivid memories was when we visited a variety of old synagogues in Jamaica.

Here is a youtube video I found of the Jewish life in Jamaica.

I don't think I'd go to Jamaica because I'd be too afraid of getting some kind of parasite. I saw an episode of "Monsters inside me" where some people got a really bad parasite because they had eaten salad in a restaurant there. Apparently there'd been a snail in the lettuce and the stupid Jamaican worker had just chopped it up into the salad.

We had no problem when we went in the 1970s... My parents had 'rich' friends who lived in the mountains of Jamaica.

That probably helped a whole lot with the safety factor. I've heard that besides some of the criminal elements that live there, that it's a beautiful place in general.

Jamaca is not even a good vacation destination now days... Marley was a radical pot head... Many of the lyrics in his songs are anti-white subversive garbage... Jews are present world wide... The fact that old synagogues existed there is not that remarkable... I wonder if they are still intact today.

What are you talking about?  Marley fought racism with such loving music.

Rastafarianism is a racist philosophy.

What sort of racism is that?  I never found his music  to be all that loving... The listener must need to be black or under the influence to see it that way.

I haven't heard anything racist in Marleys lyrics... As a matter of fact I have a rather large reggae collection.. Haven't listened to it in years though..

If you would like to assert it is racist please provide some quotes...

What Rastafarianism represents is a false faith, IMO. They have their own messiah {cant remember his name} and despite having similar themes to Judaism it is not kosher.

Haille Selassie is their Messiah, Bob converted to Christianity before he died.

I like his music, but buffalo soldier was a anti white American song.

Do yourself a favor and don't listen to it for a few more years  :::D
