Zionism cheapening true anti-Semitism

by Khalid Amayreh in Occupied East Jerusalem - Oct 8, 2007

For many generations, the unethical Zionist leadership consistently sought to scuttle legitimate criticisms of Israel’s systematic ethnic cleansing of non-Jews in Palestine by brandishing the weapon of “anti-Semitisms” in the face of those who dared call the spade a spade.

This unjust and opportunistic weapon worked effectively and many politicians, journalists and ordinary people succumbed to Zionist intimidation and blackmail.

Those who didn’t were routinely dismissed as “irredeemable anti-Semites” or “Hitler incarnates” as some Israeli and American politicians have recently called the President of Iran Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for questioning Israel’s so-called moral legitimacy. (well, in truth Israel has no more moral legitimacy than did Nazi Germany, in light of the striking similarity between the two).

In the US, for example, generation after generation of senators, congressmen, and presidential candidates had to succumb to political whoredom in order to avoid displeasing the Zionists. Even those making a mere slip of the tongue about Palestinian rights and grievances had to ask for atonement by demonstrating their deep affection to Zionism.

In fact, any casual observer of contemporary American politics, especially since World War II, would notice that most American politicians would hold different opinions on virtually every conceivable election and public issue. However, when Israel’s Nazi-like occupation of Palestine is the issue, we see that democrats and republicans and almost everyone else succumb so obsequiously and so submissively to the Zionist lobby and readily morph themselves into willing political prostitutes.

In the late of 1970s, the great Jewish-American intellectual and author, Alfred Lilienthal wrote a great book, titled “the Zionist Connection.” In that masterpiece, which I think was one of the greatest books written in the twentieth century, Lililenthal exposed in meticulous details how the Zionist movement in the US came to tightly control the overall American political discourse in ways that would make the sages of the American constitutions move in pain in their graves.

Today, the shipyard dogs of Zionism are once again brandishing the weapon of “anti-Semitism,” to intimidate and silence new critics of Israel’s Nazi-like oppression of the Palestinian people.

People like former President Jimmy Carter and authors such as Mearsheimer and Walt are being subjected to insinuations suggesting that their criticism of the Nazi-like Israeli criminality may be motivated by anti-Semitism.

Even an internationally-acclaimed moralist and defender of human rights of the caliber of Desmond Tutu has not been spared the odious canard of anti-Semitism.

According to reports from the US, a plan to invite Tutu to address students at the University of St. Thomas was cancelled recently after Zionist leaders denounced Tutu for criticizing Israeli Nazism.

The plan was to have him as a speaker next year, and it was scuttled by university officials who reportedly didn’t want to offend Zionist circles.

Oh, yes, Tutu would hurt the Zionists by reminding them of what their brothers in Israel are doing to the helpless Palestinians.

Well, how can one relate to this intellectual depravity? Coming from a country that has invaded and occupied and destroyed another sovereign country, Iraq, and killed or caused the death of over a million of its people on fabricated excuses, this depravity shows the depth of the moral crisis engulfing public discourse in America.

Well, Zionism, and by that I mean the dark, evil force which tightly controls the American government and to a lesser extent other Western governments , embodies all that is anti-human.

Zionism expects humanity to bless Israel for thinking, behaving and acting like the Third Reich.

Zionism wants the world to allow Israel to destroy, by whatever means necessary, the national existence of the Palestinian people.

Zionism wants the world to allow Israel to steal Palestine and keep the stolen land.

Zionism wants the world to allow Israel to murder, steal, and lie because the laws applicable to the rest of humanity shouldn’t apply to these hateful racists who claim to be doing what they have been doing in the name of the Jewish people.

In short, Zionism wants the world to grant Israel to be evil, racist, and Nazi, or else the world would be proven “anti-Semitic.”

True anti-Semites used to be those who hated Jews for being Jews. Now, however, anti-Semites are those whom Zionism hates and vilifies for daring to criticize Israel and its scandalous criminality against the peoples of the Middle East.

So, everyone out there should be extra careful these days lest he or she inadvertently offends the sensibilities of Zio-Nazis, the rulers of America, so that they won’t be lumped together in one parcel with Adolph Hitler and his Nazi cohorts. And the way to make sure that one remains safe is by meticulously observing the following instructions:

Don’t you ever compare the blockade of Gaza, including barring Palestinians from accessing food and work, to Auschwitz and Ghetto Warsaw.

Don’t call the systematic Israeli savagery against Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza, including the nearly daily murder of Palestinian children “murderous and criminal acts.”

Don’t call Palestinian population centers surrounded by the gigantic “separation wall” and sinister military roadblocks “ghettos.”

Don’t call blanket bombing of Lebanon with millions of cluster-bomblets “attempted genocide.”

Don’t call the racist Jewish colonies in the West Bank, built on stolen Palestinian land “illegal” and “racist.”

Because if you do, then you are a repulsive “anti-Semite” on equal footing with the Gestapo and SS…and your goal is the destruction of the Jewish people!!!

This week, Avigdor Lieberman, a truly Nazi-like cabinet minister in the Ehud Olmert government, called those Israeli Jews who deviated from “the national consensus” Kapos, a reference to Jewish traitors who persecuted Jews on behalf of the Nazis.

Well, I guess the Nazis must also have called those critics of Nazism Kapos or a similar epithet for deviating from “national consensus”!!

What a feeling of de-ja-vu !

Well, let the Zionists eat their hearts out for as long as they wish. The world will no longer be bullied by the charges of anti-Semitism. For if opposition to Israel’s Nazi oppression of the helpless Palestinians is anti-Semitic, then anti-Semitism becomes a moral obligation incumbent upon all mankind.
