For your point to be valid with regard to Sam Sloan, it requires that
there be posts on this group in which the writer indicates he considers
Sloan a Jew, and attacks or derides him in an anti-Semitic way. I am
not aware of any such. Earlier in this thread, your fellow anonymouse
"Semge Halsen" called Mike Nolan an anti-Semite for criticizing Sloan,
yet Nolan's post had no anti-Jewish content and I do not recall any
Nolan post that ever has.
Finally, Sloan is not a traditional Jewish name; it is of
Scottish/Northern Irish origin, an Anglicized version of the Gaelic
"Sluaghadhan."
