Jews On the Side of the Tigers Once Again

Dead_rabbiAbe Foxman, head of the ADL, has, once again, stood on the side of the tiger. He    announced that Bibi should not speak to our Congress since it is “unhelpful” with “unintended consequences.” As a Jew  I am sick of these milquetoast orators and back slappers “representing the Jewish people.” Foxman, named appropriately, is like the perennial fox in the henhouse. His standing as a “macher,” a Yiddish word for big shot, because he’s  head of  a “major Jewsih organization” gives him credibility while in actuality the Anti- Defamation League has lost its credibility for any Jew who’s been paying attention.

The Anti- Defamation league is no longer a Jewish organization advocating for Jews and monitoring anti- Semitic attacks.  It is just another one of the progressive collaborating organizations advocating for the rights of the transgender community, homosexuals, and Blacks. It is also interesting to note that the organization is solidly against displaying the Ten Commandments, the common standard of moral behavior of both Jews and Christians, in any public building. No matter that displaying the Ten Rules of civilized behavior is not the same as declaring a government religion like in Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, or even the Church of England. No, Abe Foxman does not speak for me or for most Jews I know.

If the words “ Never again” actually mean something, then people like Caroline Glick, Ben Shapiro, Pamela Geller, and Morton Klein actually do speak for many in the Jewish community. We have a president who announces that the Islamic terror massacre of the Jewish grocery, Hyper Cacher, was “random.” I’m sure that thousands of Jews fleeing France is just random too, or in our new Orwellian logic just a coincidence. According to the Jerusalem Post Jews were omitted from a list of minorities mentioned in President Obama’s authorization of force to Congress:

“US  President Barack Obama, in his proposed resolution for Congress that formally authorizes broad-scale use of force against the Islamic State terrorist organization wherever it is, specifically singles out several ethnic groups threatened by the group: Iraqi Christians, Yezidis and Turkmens. ”

I’m sure that was just a random mistake or misprint because no member of any Muslim the group has ever declared “Death to the Jews” or murdered Jews in the name of Allah.

The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history.
– George Orwell

Unfortunately many secular Jews don’t know their own history and continue to grovel to those in power. Instead of unending  Holocaust education about all the Jews that were murdered like sheep for the slaughter, maybe we should have monuments and memorials for all the Jews who fought valiantly for their people like Herzl and Jabotinsky.

Theordor Herzl, an educated secular Jew, was both a lawyer and journalist who covered the notoriously anti-Semitic Dreyfus affair, He believed that anti-Semitism was so rampant that either Jews needed to convert or have a country of their own in order to survive. Zev Jabotinsky was another cosmopolitan Jew who understood the necessity of trained Jewish soldiers standing up in the defense of Jews. Menacham Begin, a disciple, believed that as well. Without his underground war against the British, the state of Israel may not have been resurrected. Rabbi Meir Kahane, formerly an FBI agent, created the Jewish Defense League to protect Jewish communities against anti- Semitic violence. Ironically, he was the first casualty of Palestinian terrorism on USA soil. The young people in the Warsaw Ghetto miraculously held off the Nazis for a month with smuggled and homemade weapons. The percentage that lived to tell the tale is extraordinary considering the strength of the enemy.

Jews have a history of standing on the side of the tiger and eventually getting eaten. Many thought Hitler would bring prosperity back to Germany and Communism would bring an end to anti- Semitism. The millions slaughtered by both ideologies tell the ugly truth. Jews need to stand up for themselves and learn to protect themselves before the tiger’s next meal.

Orwellian Anti-Semitism

Many  pundits and  Intellectuals  use the term Orwellian to describe all the lies and ridiculous policies of our  government.  In Orwell’s masterwork, 1984, the word for this is “doublethink.” An example of this is when the world watched amd applauded the Charlie Hebdo international “protest march.” In reality it was a travesty.  The two biggest Jew haters, Abbas and Erdogen, pretended that Islamic terrorism has nothing to do with them. Both of them incite their people to maim and murder Jews and afterward celebrate the murderers as heroes. When a Muslim jihadist stabbed 13 people on a Tel Aviv bus, Abbas, who was no longer marching for the cameras, said nothing. Instead,  Prime Minster Natanyahu made a statement about the unprovoked attack:

“,,,is the direct result of the poisonous incitemen by the Palestinian Authority against the Jews and their state.”  He continued “[Abbas] is responsible for both the incitement and the dangerous move at the ICC”

 The leaders of France, Britain, and Germany walked arm In arm to demonstrate their stand against terrorism (or something like that). Yet  when 13 people were stabbed  by a  Muslim jihadist on a Tel Aviv bus there was only  silence. Of course, down the “memory hole” went the fact that all three countries have a history of  anti-Semitism. France can feign outrage but the government ignored the cries of Jews that they were being abused, beaten, and murdered for fifteen years, starting with the torture and murder of Ilan Halimi. England fought the Jews and allied with the Arabs in mandated Palestine, betrayed its own Balfour Declaration, and according to a recent report, no Jew has won a discrimination lawsuit in more than ten years. Germany has a well known history of Jew hatred, but many people are unaware of the extent France collaborated with them during WWII

Many of us are used to historic events, like Benghazi, Fast and Furious, the Bo Bergdhal travesty, and Seal Team Six to mention a few,of being discarded down the “memory hole”but the daughter of Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel was shocked that her father was missing from the movie Selma. She was shocked because her father was an advisor to Martin Luther King and walked arm and arm with him during that march. Jews were in the front line of the civil rights movement. Young Jewish men were murdered registering black voters in the segregated south..This is history. Rabbis from many synagogues joined the Freedom March because they believed it was a religious obligation. So did King. It all went down the “memory hole.”

Words like transparency and marriage have lost meaning because society has adopted the Orwellian“newspeak” which is eerily similar to political correctness.  When our president says ISIS is not Islamic that’s newspeak. When  terrorism is called “manmade disasters” and the public is told that Al Queda is “on the run”  that is also Orwellian.

But there’s  a salient fact that nobody mentions. In Orwell’s 1984 everyone must participate in  a daily” two minutes of hate.” The crowd  works itself into a frenzy. Interestingly, the hate is directed at the villain, Emmanual Goldstein. The name makes it obvious that he is a Jew.  Orwell, who understood the power of language, chose that name for a reason. Interestingly too, 1984 is 1948 backwards. That was the year Israel became a country.

Orwell was a visionParis Marchary and believed in the importance of words and how they shape culture.. “Political language . . . is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind” Anti-Semitism  is once again respectable.  Israel endures more than two minutes of hate daily and Islam is “a religion of peace.” Islam makes murder respectable by blaming their vicious barbarism on Israel. Even though this is 2015, it sure feels like we’re living Orwell’s1984.

Smells Like Black Privilege

aL AND oBAMAI was reminded by a Russian woman ,who became a US citizen many years ago, that Socialism demands that everyone must work.” If you don’t work you don’t eat.” Many observing the loss of our freedoms declare that this is ‘socialism or communism.’ Wrong- It appears that our government is in the process of a quiet  dismantling  of what’s left of our republic. Let’s face it. The powers that be know we love our families, friends, and what’s left of our freedom. Only by incrementally deconstructing our society could  a new form of government be built.

Over the last few weeks  the media portrayed thugs and agitators who burnt down businesses as democracy loving protestors. They ignored the fact that streets and highways were shut down by rioters as Black rage fueled Black racism against “White privilege.” Police and the National Guard did nothing to stop it. The same techniques that were used in South Africa to take over the country are being used here. We have yet to see the end game that the elites envision, but the rampaging violence against the so called injustice is spreading. The race baiter and poverty pimp, Al Sharpton, is treated like royalty while the concerns of hardworking citizens who built businesses and contribute to the economy are ignored by both sides of the aisle. Thousands of black “church” members cheered when Louis Farrakhan called for violence against whites, but no arrest for incitement was made.  Apparently many people do not believe the Judeo-Christian ethos of “Love thy neighbor.” Instead, they are willing to destroy what people have spent their lives building.

The riots are just one tactic. Our education system is fueling this too. If Common Core is not squelched we will see more and more of it. Firstly, our history and culture is being obliterated and secondly because students are being taught in a slapdash manner that is not conducive to learning.

Let me explain. I am involved in Florida schools and see what is going on. I also tutor  various grade levels and am familiar with curriculum and assignments. For example, two Black men,  Crispus Attucks and James Armistead, are being taught as being important men of the American Revolution. One was the first man shot and the other a spy for the Patriots. Their contributions  shouldn’t be minimized, but certainly should not replace Founders  like Patrick Henry, William Morris, or even Chaim Solomon who helped finance the Revolution. Even though we have a federal holiday to commemorate Dr. Martin Luther King the most important part of his speech,  “…my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not bejudged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”  is being ignored. During   Black History Month students are inundated with figures  whose contributions to our country are minimal and  are not taught the historical context of slavery so many end up thinking we were the only slave holding country.

Since our children must be “culturally diverse” they read stories about children from all over the world, but not the USA. Little House on the Prairie, the classic book by Laura Ingalls Wilder is forgotten. Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn by the great American author Mark Twain also disappeared. Instead, comprehension worksheets connected to nothing are given out daily. One day it could be about rainbows and the next day different types of whales. It is difficult to develop a love of reading that way or learn the unique nature of our country. No educational professional with integrity could think this is good for our children or the future of our nation. Faux education is a sly way to cultivate a slave or dhimmi culture, especially with all the children of  uneducated illegals in the public schools.

White privilege is the new mantra, even though that makes no sense. The people of this country elected a Black president not once but twice. Unfortunately he chooses to favor the  race of his father who abandoned him, even though his White mother and her family  raised him. Eric Holder, another black man, is the Attorney General of the United States. Conoleeza Rice and Colin Powell were Secretaries of State and let’s not forget Oprah, the richest woman in our country. The entertainment and sports industries are filled with talented black multi-millionaires. Every local, state, and national governmemt infrastructure has black personnel and cities like Newark, Detroit, and Washington D.C> have or had black mayors. It may not be perfect. but the opportunity is there for anyone who wants to take it. The reality doesn’t match the whining of victimhood. It is time for all good men to put a stop to the insanity. If not, we  are no better than that sorry fellow who got mugged and robbed and said he “understands why the perpetrator did  it.”  Our country is a country which welcomes all who come here legally. Life is tough.  We know there is no White privilege, but it’s starting to smell a lot like Black privilege

Mothers and Muthas

An exercise in grade schools these days is ” Comparing and Contrasting.” Venn diagrams are used as  visual aids and students as early as second grade are encouraged to observe  commonalities and differences in  cultures, characters, or classifications. In a personal exercise, done over the last few months, I’ve observed glaring differences between the classy  and the common or more colloquially: mothers and muthas.

It’s quite instructive to compare and contrast  the media bias and hype concerning murders in two different communities. Naftali Fraenkel, Chaya Zissel Braun, Rabbi Moshe Twersky, Rabbi Kalman Levine, and Rabbi Aryeh Kopinsky were Americans murdered for being alive. They were Jews.  Michael Brown, was shot by a police officer  trying to save his own life. Michael Brown was also an American, but  black African- American.

In a school essay, the fact that all the murder victims were Americans would be a major similarity. In a Venn diagram it would be an intersection. The fact that the three rabbis were slaughtered  praying, while Mr. Brown was killed after he robbed a convenience store and threatened a police officer certainly is a major difference. The rabbis were hacked to death by Muslims. The African American “gentle giant” was shot infergusonprotestspic1-e1416364608721 self defense by a policeman.

Naftali Fraenkel was kidnapped and murdered on his way home from studying at a yeshiva.  He was a teenager like  Mr. Brown. Both teenagers were following in the footsteps of their parents. Louis Head, stepfather of Michael Brown, is a member of the Blood gang and incited burning and looting in the Ferguson riots. Leslie Mc Spadden, Michael Brown’s mother, got in a street fight with her  ex-mother-in-law over selling Michael Brown T-shirts   and accused the policeman who killed her son of malevolence “he wanted to murder someone.” The mother of Naftali, on the other hand said in her son’s eulogy : “Rest in peace, my child. We will learn to sing without you. We will always hear your voice in our hearts.”

For some reason the media, including the internet, ran stories about the Ferguson shooting for  weeks. They hyped the grand jury story when there was nothing to tell Dead_rabbiexcept speculation and titillation.  On the other hand, the story of the murdered rabbis disappeared the next day. The story of Baby Chaya. murdered by a Palestinian killer, also disappeared in a blink of the eye. The murdered and mutilated rabbis were fathers  of 24 children.  Those bereft children and widows are now forced to face lives without the fathers and husbands they loved . The community of Har Nof never callled for the blood of the Muslim killers. The parents and loved ones of the Jews who were murdered only ask for peace and an end to the violence. The family of Mr. Brown  incited riots and welcomed race baiters and poverty pimps like Al Sharpton  into their community to instigate violence and looting.

Muslims perpetrated the savage murders in Jerusalem. Muslim mobs celebrated those murders in the streets of Gaza and Ramallah. Coincidently,Muslims are part of the agitating mob in Ferguson and Oakland.  Agitation and violence  are what the media  love to publicize, but the slaughter of innocents to the cry of “Allah Akbar”  is not even newsworthy.  Something is very wrong when mothers are squeezed out of the nightly news by muthas. Could it be the media doesn’t care about the slaughter perpetrated by Muslims in Jerusalem because, after all, they’re only dead Jews.
