I was obviously mistaken about the word originating in Russia, but I had read earlier about it having its origins due to Jewish persecution in Middle age Europe and I think that part was not wrong. Please note that we are not talking about its current meaning which you rightly point out as that it is a section occupied by minority groups. I stand corrected on the first part about Russian origins of the word. I am not sure whether there has been a deliberate attempt to mix the origin of the word with its current meaning to prove a point here.

Now it is your choice to ignore me or form whatever opinion you want to form about me. I am not going to respond in kind even though I have observed a certain behaviour trait.

WhamBam it is pointless replying to him as you are on Glyn's Ignore List. Your Post become invisible to the person who put you on it.

Great . I think there are still some people on the board who can see my posts. As the personal comments about me were made publicly, I need to present my side.

Thanks for informing me about this anyway. I was not aware of this.
