But the non-Jew is now the “persecuted one.” He must do everything the way the Jew wants it done; if not, he is “infringing on Jewish rights.”
Americans are very sensitive about infringing on other people’s rights. The Jews might have gone on “JEWISH RIGHTS” CLASH WITH AMERICAN RIGHTS 169 for a long time had they not overplayed their hand.
What the people are now coming to see is that it is American rights that have been interfered with, and the interference has been made with the assistance of their own broad-mindedness. The Jews’ interference with the religion of the others, and the Jews’ deter¬ mination to wipe out of public life every sign of the predominant Christian character of the United States, is the only active form of religious intolerance in the country today.
