Institutional Anti-Semitism

A good article here from Brendan O'Neill about the menace to society and Jews in general the "Islamo-Left" have become.

Ironic, years back I would have thought "Islamo-Left' to be an oxymoron, but they seem to fit hand to glove quite nicely these days.

Here's an extract:


Then there was the left and the other protesters. That leftists were happy to rub shoulders with radical Islamists in this orgy of hot hatred for a state that just suffered the worst act of racist terrorism of modern times tells you everything you need

to know about it. ‘The Zionist lies more than it breathes’, said one placard. There were anti-Semitic caricatures of Netanyahu. A blood-stained banner expressed regret that the Arab world accepted the Jews as refugees after ‘you were kicked out

of every country in Europe’.

Other protesters waved placards likening Israel to the Nazis. ‘Zionism is the new Nazism’, said one. Another showed Hitler’s face morphing into that of Benjamin Netanyahu. This is Jew-taunting. The aim is not merely to denounce Israel in the

most hyperbolic fashion imaginable. It is also to rub the Jew’s nose in his own historic suffering; to mock him with reminders of the industrialised slaughter of his race; to defame him as the heir to the evil unleashed against his own people. Any

leftist who stands around as modern Jews are compared to the Nazis has lost all claim to the mantle of anti-racism. Or, indeed, who stands around as a masked woman holds up a placard saying ‘Please keep the world clean’ next to an image of a

stick figure throwing the Star of David into a bin, as also happened in London yesterday.

We can now see just what a menace to Jewish people and everyday decency the Islamo-left has become. Islamo-gauchisme, as the French call it, is that section of the left that is willing to turn a blind eye to the regressive, reactionary,

misogynistic, anti-Semitic and anti-human character of radical Islam in the belief that this fundamentalism can at times play a useful ‘anti-imperialist’ role. That is, they might be unpleasant, but they can sometimes be a

sort of battering ram against our own states, our own rulers. As the veteran of British left politics Chris Harman put it in his mad book, The Prophet and the Proletariat (1999), Islamists are not ‘our allies’, no, but their ‘feeling of revolt’ can

sometimes be ‘tapped for progressive purposes’.

We know the Left and certain members on here try and virtue signal their anti-Britain, anti-imperialist narrative to score brownie points with other ethnic groups, they've even started to cosy up to extremists and those who want rid of the Jews.

Jews didn't have a history of running round Germany slaying people in broad day with machetes, or blowing themselves up after screaming "Allah Akbar", nor did they spit at German soldiers and burn the German flag.

Israel shut off power, water, fuel, food and medicine for 2 million people and are now bombing civilians. It has parallels to the Warsaw Ghetto.

So, what has that got to do with this?

IIRC, you also made the same claim with regards to 1930's Germany and Britain about refugees.

It seems, your debate just whittles down to Godwin's Law. With the added and audacious bonus you turn the other cheek to Islamic extremism on British shores. noun
