That's not just the Ultra-Orthodox.

I was raised Conservative Jewish, and am a practicing Conservative Jew (as a side note, I was very, very lucky....I was a member of Congregation Beth Sholom, and our main sanctuary was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, but that's for another time).

At any rate, I will right out God on the internet, or on electronic media.

However, I tend to note write out God on paper or printed word, etc. If I do, I hand off the paper to the shul in order for it to be buried. I usually use G-d, though, just out of habit.

I even know Reform Jews like that, too. It's not something that only the ultra Orthodox do.

I've seen it from Orthodox and Conservative. I also get confused as to when it's ok to say "God" or not. I'm sure it varies from one sub-sect to another, but I have heard a rabbi refuse to say "God" or "Adonnai" in places where I thought it ought to have been perfectly permissible, and then there's Hashem among the Orthodox, which seems to be ok anytime. But....this is really for the religion forum.

As to the OP topic, I got to wondering. Eisenhower obviously wasn't Jewish, so how did he get that rep? The following is all speculation, but perhaps someone else can fill in if there is any validity to the speculation. It seems that this idiotic idea came from some holocaust deniers. Well, Eisenhower did have one significant tie to the holocaust. It was on his orders that photographers were brought in as quickly as possible to photograph the camps and the victims. Also, on his orders, German civilians were paraded through the camps, and forced to view first hand the works of their government.

Some people thought this rather insensitive, either to the Germans or to the victims themselves, or to the people who would be subjected to viewing the horrific pictures. When asked why he was doing it, he said (quoting form memory) "Because some day some S.O.B. would come along and say none of this ever happened."

This probably wouldn't sit well with holocaust deniers, and perhaps some of them think that he manufactured the evidence as part of the Jewish conspiracy?
 
Thanks again for the contributions.

I still haven't seen many comments on the Ike the **** thing - and I have been asked "Why did his soldiers call him that if he wasn't a jew?

Trying to prove that they didn't, or did it because it's just a rhyme, is like proving a negative and I cannot find any serious sources telling me how this myth - if it is one, as I assume - originated.

At the 1952 convention, Smith distributed a paper that outlined International Jewry's plans for world domination. Republicans called it an Americanized version of the Protocols of Zion. He distributed "Ike the Kike" cards during the 1952 primary, showing how a Jewish cabal has been selecting American Presidents since the days of Theodore Roosevelt, with Dwight D. Eisenhower as their latest standard bearer...

In 1955 he testified before a senate subcommittee, opposing the liberalization of refugee laws on the grounds that more undesirable flood of Jewish immigrants. Once Eisenhower was elected, he led a movement called "Stop Ike the Kike" in order to remove Eisenhower from office.

He believed the holocaust to be an invention of the Jew-controlled media.

Luke T. made a rare appearance here to post this example of someone using the term "Ike the Kike", but no-one seemed to notice it so I am quoting his post.

I saw it, but it wasn't clear if the expression started at that time or if it was qouting something Eisenhower had been called earlier - e.g. by soldiers during the war.

Searching for it, I find only websites I wouldn't quote here. :(

You mean when the Anglo-Saxons killed all the Indians in the USA and Canada? Sorry buddy, but that wasn't us. That was YOUR people.

Not my people.

Right. Anglos killing indians and blacks. True. That's a given.

But Iraq, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Gaza, 9/11, USS Liberty, Lavon Affair, WW1, WW2. Those are all the zionist-jews.

They are doing it in your name. If you don't stand up against it they're gonna think that you support it.

That's what the world thought Of americans with Bush. THey thought "they voted for Bush twice, they must really like him and his policies"

That is why it is important to speak up.

and ofcourse, Christians have never done the USA any harm.


ever heard of Tim McVeigh?

Malcolm, be honest..what is your solution to the Jewish problem?

Stop saying that. I do not condone violence.

Well, not really. The only time I could condone violence is in the case of self defense. If your life is in danger than you can protect yourself.

Now, if all the zionist jewish ring-leaders woke up one day and fled the USA and settled in china, I wouldn't lose any sleep over it. They sure don't lose any sleep for all the people that THEY have killed, so why should I care for them? They have Americans fight their wars and they kill innocent people in Lebanon and Gaza and the west bank. So If they were to leave to china. I would say "fine by me".

A lot.

Anything during the cold war the zionist jews had their hands in it.

Play both sides so you know the outcome kinda thing you know.

Read jack bernsteins book about the zionists. It answered a lot of questions.
 
Soldiers find all kinds of nicknames for all kinds of reasons. This list is far more complete than I could make, and has some really weird names.

A few points:

1). Merely having a "bad word" as a nickname does not imply the general (or admiral) in question was disliked. In fact it is often well-liked figures who the soldiers allow themselves to nickname with a silly or "bad" name.

2). The list doesn't mention "Ike the kike" in particular, though this hardly is proof he wasn't called that.

3). Nicknames do not necessarily have a factual basis. If Ike was called a "kike", it might well be just because his unassuming, baby-faced look reminded someone more of a New York Jewish intellectual than of a supreme commander. Or perhaps because he became better known as an administrator and overall coordinator than as a combat general. It hardly implies he was, or even believed to be, actually Jewish.

4). Nicknames tend to rhyme. In a less politically-correct age, it is not unlikely that someone whom Ike's looks or behavior reminded him of a Jew would -- even if the reference was not intended as an insult -- nickname him a "kike" just in order to rhyme with "Ike", without any antisemitic intentions. One can hardly have a nickname like "Ike the Jewish-American".

Bottom line (so far):

I found little evidence Ike was ever called that, but if he was, it (a) was not necessarily an insult, (b) even if it were an insult, does not imply he had any connection to Judaism.

P.S.

The word "kike" comes from kikel - Yiddish for "circle". Many Jewish immigrants at the turn of the century could not sign their names in English on immigration forms, and -- not wanting to sign with a cross -- signed with a circle, or "kikel". Hence "kike".

A circle is a nearly perfect thing. So when you call someone a "kike", you're saying that he's nearly perfect.
 
We had (and still have, frankly) some antisemitic loonies on this forum before, but this "malcolmxwarrior" guy takes the cake.

Great - thanks.

As you say. not proof Eisenhower wasn't called that, but good enough. (And who on Earth would have thought that wiki had a list of military figures by nickname?)

The founding of Israel had elements of racism in it, and racism is still part of their dynamic.

But the same goes for the USA. The USA was founded in 1776...racist slavery did not end until 1863 (87 years later) and racist segregation didn't end till 1963 (187 years later)

So yes, Israeli racism needs to end. But white Americans are in no way guilt free.

The Emancipation Proclamation didn't end slavery in 1863 as Lincoln only had authority over the North. This was not achieved until the 13th Amendment became the law of the land on 12/18/1865.

The Civil Rights Act didn't become law until 6/2/1964.
