Dissecting Antisemitism

The Zionist regime’s genocidal massacre of Gaza has elicited a lot of passion and vitriol.

This has resulted in people all over the world condemning Israel and its violence, and rightly so!

It has also elicited a lot of anti-Jewish feeling, which has been condemned as “Antisemitism” by pro-Israeli Jews and their supporters.

But who is responsible for these anti-Jewish feelings? Are they justified? Is criticism of Israel really just a cover for Antisemitism?

Let’s dissect a portion of this whole Antisemitism talk and get an idea of why it’s happening, and who the biggest culprits behind its growth and spread are.

By and large, and quite unfortunately, most Jews worldwide support bad Israeli policies.

There are some brave Jewish voices like the intellectual Noam Chomsky, numerous holocaust survivors, Jewish historians and famous personalities who have condemned Israeli policies and actions, and equated it with aspects of Nazism and South African apartheid, albeit on a worse scale.

These views are valid and are backed up by a staggering amount of facts and examples.

Taking into account the disproportionate amount of Jewish support for Israel, and we can see who is mostly responsible for anti-Jewish feeling in the world.

After the Gaza massacre started, Jews in Europe and in other parts of the world started being targeted with hate-speech, and Jewish community centers and synagogues were vandalized and attacked.

But who has promoted this hatred? Was it just a sad example of some irrational ingrained Jew-hating feelings inherent in gentiles, or was it a response borne out of anger and frustration at the evil policies and acts of the Israeli regime against those who support it, which happen to be most Jews?

Another angle we can look at regarding this issue is thus:

Zionists ruling Israel, together with their pro-Israeli myrmidons all over the world, spend endless amounts of money on PR campaigns to equate Zionism with Judaism; to make Jews and Israel look like one.

So when Israel goes on an anti-Palestinian/Arab rampage, Jews shouldn't be surprised when non-Jews do the same: equate Judaism with Zionism and attack synagogues, hold demonstrations against Israel, discriminate against, and threaten Jews wherever they see them. When this happens, Israel and its supporters have no one else to thank but themselves!

Being a student of history and an avid follower of current events, it’s my fervent belief that there are no innocent people in this world.

Every race, ethnic group, nationality--and yes, religious group has done despicable things to others throughout its existence. This indisputable fact also applies to all self-styled “innocent victim” groups and nationalities, including Jews.

Being born and raised within one of these national groups, I myself have seen the hypocrisy of a people who constantly whine about the wrongs made against them in the past by this country or that, without this group daring to look at its own unsavory history. So I’m well-acquainted with this sad phenomenon.

It seems like the tragedies of that nation have given it a convenient cover which hides centuries of bad judgment, ignorance, petty nationalism, and childish vindictiveness, all which serve to perpetuate more trouble for the said nation up to the present day.

It’s the same with the Jews who support Israel, right or wrong--although mostly wrong.

Let’s also review a few excerpts written by past historians about this Jewish tendency to shoot themselves in the foot.

"Et Ses Causes,” published in 1894, by noted Jewish author, Bernard Lazare.

He stated the following with regard to these expulsions of Jews:

“If this hostility, even aversion, had only been shown towards the Jews at one period and in one country, it would be easy to unravel the limited causes of this anger, but this race has been on the contrary an object of hatred to all the peoples among whom it has established itself.
 

"It must be therefore, since the enemies of the Jews belonged to the most diverse races, since they lived in countries very distant from each other, since they were ruled by very different laws, governed by opposite principles, since they had neither the same morals, nor the same customs, since they were animated by unlike dispositions which did not permit them to judge of anything in the same way, it must be therefore that the general cause of antisemitism has always resided in Israel itself and not in those who have fought against Israel."

Let’s hear it from another person.

Professor Jesse H. Holmes, writing in, “The American Hebrew,” expressed the following
similar sentiments”

“It can hardly be an accident that antagonism directed against the Jews is to be
found pretty much everywhere in the world where Jews and non-Jews are
associated. And as the Jews are the common element of the situation it would seem
probable, on the face of it, that the cause will be found in them, rather than in the
widely varying groups which feel this antagonism.”


So, taking into account what I and these other two gentlemen have written, doesn’t it seem like the Jewish people are in a way responsible for their own plight by supporting Israeli policies and actions? Don’t they share at least some of the blame for the state of affairs in Palestine, and well as the resulting Antisemitism?

Maybe that’s the aim of the Israeli regime: to cause as much Antisemitism as possible in order to bring and keep Jews together, so Jews survive within their own homogeneous society, free from outsiders.

This could be a plausible explanation when one takes into account the fact that Palestinians are breeding at a faster rate than Jews, and may one day demographically overwhelm the Jewish population in Palestine.

This undoubtedly threatens Israel’s exclusive Jewish majority make-up, upon which the chauvinist and racist Zionist ideology rests. It also helps explain why Israel during its Gaza operations, past and present, targeted women, hospitals, and schools-namely for population control.

I don’t condone violence against Jews or anyone else, because mass-scale targeting of people will one day come back to haunt its perpetrators.

Actually, violence against Jews is what the Israeli regime wants because it feeds into their “victim” status, justifies Israeli military atrocities against anyone, shuts off Jewish criticism, creates pro-Israeli solidarity, and WRONGLY brings Jews closer to supporting Israeli murder and theft. This in turn creates more Antisemitism in the future.

Jews, as well as other people who feel like they’ve been victimized throughout history must look at their own shameful acts throughout the ages, look within themselves with an open mind, figure out their flaws, and correct their behavior.

These people must grow up and find more civilized, saner, and pragmatic ways to deal with the world and their own problems instead of sticking to their paranoid delusions, self-righteousness, and ignorance of others.

Because you know what they say about people who don’t learn from history . . .
