He really didn't like being called that :)

P.O. Box 50307 Pasadena, CA 91105 June 28, 1984

The Editors ENCYCLOPAEDIA JUDAICA JERUSALEM The Macmillan Company 866 Third Avenue New York City, NY 10022

Gentlemen:

Knowing what I do about Judaism, I was naturally distressed to see that you have erroneously featured me as a Jew in ENCYCLOPAEDIA JUDAICA. Please do not make this mistake again in any future editions of your voluminous, pseudo-authoritative publication. I am not today, nor have I ever been a Jew, and as a matter of fact, I am uncircumcised.

I suggest rather than fraudulently misrepresenting me to be a Jew, and dishonestly abusing my name and reputation as a kind of advertising gimmick to improve the image of your religion (Judaism), you try to promote your religion on its own merits--if indeed it has any! In closing, I trust that I am not being unrealistically optimistic, in thanking you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter.

Truly yours, Bobby Fischer, The World Chess Champion

Fischer was part Jewish, born of his Jewish mother, Regina, which would, by common consensus, make him a full Jew – although Fischer strongly denied the label himself. Instead, he was a vociferously outspoken critic of Jewish people, and was quickly labeled an antisemite in the press. In a 1984 letter to Encyclopedia Judaica, he wrote “Knowing what I do about Judaism, I was naturally distressed to see that you have erroneously featured me as a Jew […] I am not today, nor have I ever been a Jew, and as a matter of fact, I am uncircumcised.”

It would make sense to reason that an intelligent man (by all objective accounts) had something valuable to say in publicly sharing his views on Jewish people that is worth listening to. Fischer used his elevated platform to warn us about the predictable nature and behaviour of Jewish people at great personal expense.

jews are good as long as they say other jews are bad.

People like you are why White countries get invaded by jews which leads to usury which leads to open borders which leads to invasions of sandjews.

His father isn't a jew. I believe in a patriarchy not matriarchy. He doesn't believe in judaism, if he had kids they would not either. So no jews.

jew is passed down by mother, read the thread, read the history. Either way both are "wrong", being a jew is passed down if either parent is a jew, you can't just ignore the blood of one parent because muh reasons. But again, you're retarded.

He isn't a jew, his kids wouldn't be jews. He wouldn't marry a jew because he's against jews. His kids would have at most 1 jew grandmother who doesn't practice judaism.
