It’s obvious that the place for every Jew is Eretz Yisroel and that there are still Jews living in the diaspora because something needs to be accomplished in those places. Antisemitism exists world-wide but is especially existant amoung the sons of Esau (which include Amalek) – the Europeans (America is just full of European progeny). The Rebbe’s first shliach went to Morrocco. There were many hundreds of thousands of Jews living there at that time. The situation changed and now there are only several thousand.

And arn’t you aware that they just tried stopping Bris Milah in the U.S.?

jews have not been living in Europe for that long. More like 1,000 years. The 2,000 years of anti-semitism you reference is in fact more like 3,300 years (since mattan torah: Sinai miloshon Sina) and is Universal in every country in the world, including Israel.

Where would you suggest they go? Have you seen what’s going on in America?

What makes "stunning" humane?

“Stunning” is performed by electrocuting an animal with a large taser. It can sometimes take several shocks for the animal to lose consciousness. What makes this process more humane than instant severing of the carotid artery?

No Jew should be iving in Europe. Two thousand years of anti-semitism should be enough of an indication for Jews the get out faster than ASAP.
