The Strange Double Standards of the Anti-Anti-Semites

Various anti-anti-Semites see a "resurgence" of anti-Semitism in the world. For evidence, they commonly cite recent trivial events: Julian Assange blurting out in a phone call that a Jewish media cabal is out to get him, then taking it back in the same phone call; a couple of drunken, nasty tirades by the fey fashion designer John Galliano; Charlie Sheen calling evil producer Charles Lorre "Chaim Levine" [1] and other such statements. (And there's always the odd swastika here and there, daubed on a tombstone by some jerk somewhere, which can be inflated into the second coming of Hitler. Which is why those punks sneaking around at night with spraypaint cans do it- because it gets a rise out of people.)

Oddly, we never hear a mention of the lethal anti-Semitism practiced by Pakistan. By "Pakistan," I mean the rulers of Pakistan. And make no mistake, the real rulers of Pakistan are the Military and its terrorist arm, the ISI (Inter Services Intelligence).

Remember the recent terrorist onslaught in Mumbai, India? That lasted 3 days and killed 160 people. Among the specific targets was the Hasidic Nariman House, where six Jews were killed. The ISI directed the attack from Pakistan. The ISI sponsors the group that provided the personnel for the attack, a gang of loathsome fanatics called Lashkar-e-Taiba, which means "Army of the Pure." (How's that for a self-righteous name? Pure scum, I'd say. Amazing how full of themselves the most loathsome people on earth always are. Guess that gives them the necessary arrogance and total lack of self-doubt or self-awareness to impose their horrors on others.) In July 2010, U.S. JCS Chair Adm. Mike Mullen called them a "global threat" during a trip to Islamabad to "confer" with "our" Paki "allies," as the U.S. rulers like to delude themselves- or maybe they're just trying to delude us. Maybe someday "secret" documents will clear up that question. This gang of cutthroats openly runs madrassas (terrorist brainwashing centers masquerading as religious "schools") and other facilities right out in the open.

How often do you hear the likes of Abe Foxman, chief noisemaker of the "Anti-Defamation League," squawking about LETHAL Pakistani anti-Semitism? It seems that ideological enforcement of the ban against criticising Israel is the raison d'etre for the ADL and the rest of the "Jewish lobby." Not that Galliano isn't a loathsome jerk. But he lost his job. He was punished. And all he did was spew nasty words, not murder people. (And he's also facing criminal charges in France, where such speech is prosecuted.) The ADL's webpage on the attack goes out of its way to avoid holding Pakistan or the ISI responsible. The only mention of Pakistan is to cite Pakistan's pathetic lies denying having anything to do with it. And this is after the webpage speculates wrongly as to the identity of the attackers, including maybe they were Indian Muslims (they weren't).

Of course, not everyone can kill Jews and avoid the public attack by the anti-anti-Semites. Palestinians have no such privileges. Palestinians in general need to be demonized, in fact, to justify driving them off their homeland, because Jews from Brooklyn claim it's their land, a gift from "God" thousands of years ago. The U.S. throws the full weight of its might behind this ridiculous, religiously fanatical proposition.

Anti-Semitism is a form of bigotry. Sometimes, like all bigotries, it reaches murderous extremes. But the selective outrage of the anti-anti-Semitics reveals their cynicism. You would think lethal anti-Semitic terrorist attacks sponsored by a sovereign state would be a huge scandal. Instead the drunken ravings of some fashionista is the outrage du jour.

The reason for the constant alarmism over "the rise in anti-Semitism," which goes hand-in-hand with "Israel has never been in more peril," is pretty transparent. The anti-anti-Semities unfortunately don't give a darn about bigotry. They care about defending and promoting Israeli imperialism, period. And portraying any opposition to that imperialism, and any peep of protest against Israeli oppression and various atrocities, as anti-Semitic, is a longstanding tactic to squelch objective discussion of Israel. And it works.

[1] "Chuck Lorre" was born Charles Levine. Like many Jews in the media, he seems shy about his Jewishness and so adopted an alias. "Chaim" is Hebrew for Charles. Making the whole situation more ambiguous, "Chaim Levine" was the name of a character Chuck Lorre himself played in a cameo in one of his own sitcoms. (No egotist he.) Sheen claimed he was referring to that. Roseanne Barr seconds Sheen's opinion of Lorre-Levine's loathsomeness. A recent puff piece cover story in The Hollywood Reporter on Lorre inadvertently gives a glimpse into how smug, obnoxious, and full of himself this typical Hollywood hustler type is. Which is not to say that Sheen doesn't have obvious psychological problems, which the media are cynically exacerbating by indulging his ravings. (If they really disapprove, they don't have to give him such major coverage. It's the same hypocrisy operating when they blare lurid coverage of sex "scandals." And it's a contrast with newsworthy things they TOTALLY BLACK OUT, like the Obama regime's persecution of anti-war activists and other dissidents in the U.S. So we know they can ignore things when they want to. But that's things they don't want people to know about.)
