Yuri Kolker . Jewish Anniversary in England."Vesti", July 13, 2006. , the application "Okna". Resume. Author of the resume: mikemar, February20.2006.Category:Vesti.The Lord- protector of England, Oliver Cromwell, 350 years ago permitted Jews to return to the country. By the reason for this significant event, as they consider, served the economic crisis. Cromwell wanted, according to him, to get an interesting profit from the enemies of Christ's. Jews were banished from England more than for three and one-half of centuries ago. Then reasons were also economic: the aggravation of competition. By the way, the history of the expulsion of Jews from the countries of Europe gives the possibility to judge about economic state and civilization of these countries. When economic difficulties increased, they invited Jews, and they banished Jews in the periods of the bloom of their economy. So it was in Germany, in France, and in Spain. Jewish community in Britain counts at present about four hundred thousand people. Here only people confessing Judaism are considered Jews. Conservative Britain always expressed indebtedness to the Jewish contribution to the cultural life of the country.
The famous phrase of Churchill about the fact that the Jews are small people, but in each concrete place they are for some reason much - completely not anti-Semitic. It only a little mocking, that reflects the fact of visit by Churchill in essence of the places, where there are actually usually many Jews: universities, concert halls, hospitals, attorneys, the charitable foundations, book stores, cinemas. British conservative press is now inclined to contradict Jews against Moslems. Britons declare, that the Judaism never was aggressive, but Jews always stood for the maintenance of the existing order in those countries, where they lived. Jew, who did not break with the jews, never will go in revolutionaries - is such the answer of contributor to those Russians, who blame Jews in the October Revolution and the subsequent horrors.
