Anti-semitism and Israel’s moral imperative : Comments

By Alon Ben-Meir, published 8/5/2015

Horrific outbursts against the Jews are on the rise all over Europe – exclamations like 'gas the Jews' and 'Jews burn best' are being heard at soccer games and similar social gatherings.

Has the increase of anti-Semitism been in proportion to the huge increase in Muslim immigration to Europe? Muslims are the leading anti-Semites, calling for their deaths and the obliteration of Israel. The do this loudly and publicly, despite the 'hate speech' laws that we often hear about.

Anti-Semitism from other groups and individuals, except for Nazi copy cats, rarely call for such hateful fates for Jews.

Why, instead of just blaming the Jews (or at least some Jews) for hatred against themelves, don't people who write and talk about anti-Semitism name the actual people and groups who are anti-Semitic? E.g : some Muslims, Nazis, some well-known individuals, some leftists.
I have no particular brief for Jews or Israel. But the the anti-Semitic debate usually ends up blaming Jews themseles for hatred towards them.

Whereas, if anyone dares cricticise Islam or Muslims, the subject of the criticism claim 'racism' (even though Islam has nothing to do with ethnicity) and also fall back on 'victimhood'.

The Jews, perhaps more aware of the freedoms, including freedom of speech, they have so often been denied themselves, just take it on the chin like other mature people and get on with their lives, hard though that must be for Israelis under constant physical threat from their haters.

In the Middle East we have 'true'muslims killing, beheading, raping, brainwashing thousands of other 'non true'muslims, Christians, Jews and other infidels and then we have Dr. Alon Ben-Meir criticising the only democracy in the Middle East whereby the desert has been turned into productive land. Dr Alon's total imbalance along with the rest of the lying leftist media does more harm than anyone else when it comes to anti semitism.

ttbn,
They're not even really Nazi copycats, they copy the Jewish Hollywood Nazi stereotypes and parrot the American Jewish Holocaust propaganda. In any case Hitler was wrong about the Jews on most points except their widespread involvement with Bolshevism and organised crime so even if these "Neo Nazis" did take his words literally and try to repeat his actions they'd fail. Hitler had some valid points in 1920 however those arguments don't stack up in 2015, the Europeans don't have a "Jewish Question" to answer anymore, they need to concentrate on dealing with the Atlantic powers, Russia and the literal invasion from the south.

Is not the basis of all these problems to holding of non- evidenced based beliefs, whether religions involving god concepts or ideologies?
We have a history of Jews killing non- Jews ( men women and children), whether or not walls collapsed when they blew trumpets, Pagans killing Christians, Christians killing pagans (Charlemagne),Jews ( Inquisition) Muslims killing beheading every male of a Jewish tribe and enslaving all women and children, Facists and Nazis killing Jews, Communists and Christians, Christians Catholics killing Protestants, Protestants killing Catholics, both killing particular sects such as Anabaptists and Anti-Trinitarians,
Muslims killing Christians etc. ,

Would we have war at all if we had no religions and ideologies?

If you study history at all and are not an atheist and sceptic you are an intellectual cripple

Alon ben Meir seems to be another lefty pseudo intellectual and a Jew, prepared to dump on his own people as a fashion statement, to gain the grudging approval of the Lefty academic goys.

Alon conveniently does not mention that anti Semitism in Europe is increasing primarily because of the importation of Muslims into European (and Australian) societies under the banner of Multiculturalism, which to my perception was enthusiastically endorsed by the Jews in the first place. My own perception (which could be wrong), was that very prominent Jews in Australia were foremost in championing Multiculturalism when it as first submitted as government policy.

The second reason, is because the Arabs have replaced the Jews in the left wing pantheon of "the poor oppressed minority" who need the protection of the Left.

The reason for that is Israel/Palestine.

The Impossible Dream of Leftist academics is to create a world community free of war. The fools have identified "Racism" and "The Oppression of Minorities" as the primary reasons for war. Just destroy Racism and Oppression, and hey presto, all human conflict ceases. The Lefties expected the Jews to be their natural allies in this Quixotic quest, and they were horrified when the Jews engaged in a bit of Racism and Oppression in Israel against the Arabs. Of course, the Jews were simply returning the complement to the Arabs who had been "oppressing" and murdering Jews since Mohammad got the ball (and the heads) rolling in Medina, in 627 AD. But that inconvenient fact is inconsequential when you have a formula to Save The World and you can't see around your ideological blinkers.

So the lefties turned on the Jews and became the champions of the Muslims. Although that little alliance is under some strain at the moment, since the Muslims see nothing wrong with murdering left wing editors, journalists, cartoonists, or anybody else who dares to criticise their murderous religion.
