I’ve written before about some of the loons who leave comments on my blog. I never approve for publication any antisemitic or anti-Muslim comments.

One of the latest charmers to swing by went on a long rant about the Holocaust before suggesting that I visit my “thieving relatives in Israel” whereupon he hopes that Iran would “blow your hooked nose off”.

Someone needs to have a word and tell him what a goy is.

    “Newkey-Burden” does sound like a Jewish name after all …

  • Damian

    Maybe he thinks Chas is short for Chaim?!?!?!

  • BrendaP

    Goyim can have hooked noses too of course, as Jews can have tiny button noses. This stereotypical rubbish does stick with people once they are brainwashed with it from birth though!

  • Chas Newkey-Burden

    Maybe he thinks Chas is short for Chaim?!?!?!

    *Shrugs* So you will call me Chaim Netan-Bibi from now on! Oy, I don’t mean to kvetch but today has been such a schlep. Anyway, enough already, I have to go – my son the doctor is drowning!

  • BrendaP

    Chaim Neukvell-Burdinsky is your name – now go find your Israeli relatives!

    “Hooked Nose;” some mistake methinks. Let Duvid soothe your nerves and sore eyes with another stunning shot of the gorgeous Israeli soldier model Esti Ginzburg from the last thread:

    and if that is not enough of Israeli fashion models just called Esti, here is the equally gorgeous Esti Mamo:

  • BrendaP, LOL! That was a brilliant invention :-) . We should open up a new page on JewishGen just for Chas!

  • Avi

    Hmmm chas.. do you have a problem with goyim ?

  • Chas Newkey-Burden

    Hmmm chas.. do you have a problem with goyim ?

    No, I am goyim – that’s the point of the post!

    • Avi

      Oh…
      Im glad because I don’t like racism..
      And also why did you call your site “oyvagoy” ? lol

    • Avi

      By the way I am the one who made that video to BUYcott Israel..
      Oh and another question..
      Chas are you a christian or a muslim or hindu …… ?

    • Chas Newkey-Burden

      It is a play on the exasperated saying ‘oy va voy’. I am a goy, so I called my site ‘oy va goy’ as a play on words.

      I’m not a Christian, Muslim or Hindu.

    • Avi

      Hmm.. so what are you ?
      And which religion you was born into ?

    • Chas Newkey-Burden

      Well, I guess my parents are CofE by default.

  • Shmuel

    “No, I am goyim – that’s the point of the post!”

    LOL!!!

  • Chas Newkey-Burden

    Speaking of my Israeli relatives, I think Ginzburg might be my future Israeli wife in another dimension…

  • Israelinurse

    In honour of your new name…

    Ah, fair play to you Mr NB.

    Chas:

    A person’s surname means little when it comes to determining ethnic heritage. I have a friend whose family immigrated to Ireland in the early 1800s from somewhere in eastern Europe. The family always insisted they were Catholics, but also claimed to be related to the great composer Jacques Offenbach who was Jewish. Recently, members of her family, whose surname is MacDonald, immigrated to Israel and had some old family documents translated by neighbours who could read Cyrillic and confirmed that the family was, indeed, Jewish and on both sides. Former Ontario premier Bob Rae’s paternal grandfather was named Andrew Cohen, but the children ended up bearing his Scottish Protestant grandmother’s surname instead.

    As I recall, you have some eastern European heritage. Chances of you having at least some Jewish heritage a few generations back aren’t all that remote. There was far more intermarriage than going on, especially in Poland, than people realize.

    • Chas Newkey-Burden

      Yes my mother is Latvian. Everything about that side of my family is fascinating and quite moving in parts. I’m enjoying looking into it all.

  • evaM

    Chas I wont hold it against you that you that you are a goy
    My best friends are, and horror of horrors is my hubby.wink

    BTW I dont have a hook nose ,but my SIL has who is not Jewish wink lol

  • Stephanie Gutmann

    As proof of confusion over last names: There is the writer Arieh O’Sullivan who is Jewish. (He used to be military correspondent for the Jerusalem Post) And me, who everybody assumes is Jewish but is not, by law, Jewish (just Jewish-identified.)

    And that’s because by Jewish law it all depends on the mother. If your mother was Jewish; you’re Jewish. If not, fuggedebodit unless she converts. In Jewish law there is no such thing as a “half Jew”; that is a goyish construct.
