Jewish Involvement in Shaping American Immigration Policy, 1881-1965: A Historical
Review
ABSTRACT
This paper discusses Jewish involvement in shaping United States immigration policy. In
addition to a periodic interest in fostering the immigration of co-religionists as a result of
anti-Semitic movements, Jews have an interest in opposing the establishment of ethnically and
culturally homogeneous societies in which they reside as minorities. Jews have been at the
forefront in supporting movements aimed at altering the ethnic status quo in the United States in
favor of immigration of non-European peoples. These activities have involved leadership in
Congress, organizing and funding anti-restrictionist groups composed of Jews and gentiles, and
originating intellectual movements opposed to evolutionary and biological perspectives in the
social sciences.

Afer several nurses were infected with SARS despite being covered from head to toe in protective gear Dr. Mary Vearncombe, the hospital's head of infection, prevention and control, said:
"I have some level of optimism that we can contain it in Toronto," she told reporters. "I have no optimism that we can contain it in developing areas of the world like mainland China so we will continue to import cases and we're going to have to remain absolutely vigilant."
It's good to know its all for a good cause.
BTW: I have several cans of paint and they're each a single color. This is clearly an unacceptable situation. Diversity demands that I mix them all together.

Liam McDougall of the Sunday Herald reports that:It has emerged that a coalition of antiquities collectors and arts lawyers, calling itself the American Council for Cultural Policy (ACCP), met with US defence and state department officials prior to the start of military action to offer its assistance in preserving the country's invaluable archaeological collections.
The group is known to consist of a number of influential dealers who favour a relaxation of Iraq's tight restrictions on the ownership and export of antiquities. Its treasurer, William Pearlstein, has described Iraq's laws as 'retentionist' and has said he would support a post-war government that would make it easier to have antiquities dispersed to the US.
