When smearing accusations of antisemitism is a pretext for actual antisemitic terrorism

Look well at this guy (left) because he is the chief smearer of the Zionist¹ Hasbara² all around. Marvin Hier is so lowly that he dared to declare the Brazilian champion of Palestinian struggle, cartoonist Carlos Latuff, "antisemitic" for stating the obvious: that Netanyahu bombed the largest concentration camp on Earth (Gaza Strip), massacring hundreds, including dozens of children, just because he hoped to rally support among the rabid colonialists who hold the so-called Israeli citizenship (many of which live in the USA in fact, or arrived to Palestine a few years ago from Russia or wherever, but still hold rights that the natives of Palestine do not in most cases). 

The "antisemitic" cartoon is at the right. The meaning is obvious and there's nothing "antisemitic" in it other than Netanyahu and his truly antisemitic (anti-Palestinian, who are not just Arab-speakers, a Semitic language, but are the most direct descendants of ancient Jews) many crimes. 

I normally do not care if racism, apartheid and war crimes are antisemitic or of any other kind. Ethics are the same for all ethnicities... unless you happen to be a racist and your ethics are racist themselves. But in this case I must emphasize that there is hardly anything more antisemitic than the crimes against Palestinians, who are doubly semitic: Arab (by language) and Jewish (by ancestry).

Of course Latuff, who already warned years ago against the petty abuse by the Zionazis of the term "antisemitism" to mean not anymore hatred of Semitic Peoples in general or Jews in particular but to arbitrarily include all opposition to Israel, i.e. Antizionism, has taken it with a good laugh, even with some pride - not for being antisemitic but for being inevitably smeared by the true antisemites of the Zionist International, the hypocrytes! His answer was this other cartoon, showing his pride for pissing off the Zionazis:


Notice please the subtle detail of the "SS" ensign by which Latuff honors Hier as the Nazi he is. 

If you still have any doubt, I'll ask you a question: who would you trust: an angry rabbi who is buddy of genocidal criminals like Netanyahu (never mind the banksters who fund them both) or Jane Fonda?

Of course the company whom he was entitled with was not in most cases something to be proud of: three European Nazi parties and another ghostly entity (football hooligans) and the less clear cases of Islamist leaders in Iran, Egypt and the USA (see the original SWC pamphlet).

But there was at least another person smeared as well by Hier's venom. This one is a German journalist Jakob Augstein, who has been strongly critical of Israel. What did he say to piss off the Zionazi rabbi? Unlike with Latuff, where the merits are rather dissimulated, with Augstein they bothered quoting him in length:

JAKOB AUGSTEIN
OWNER / EDITOR, DER FREITAG WEEKLY
CONTRIBUTOR, SPIEGEL ONLINE


“With backing from the US, where the president must secure the support of Jewish lobby groups, and in Germany, where coping with history, in the meantime, has a military component, the Netanyahu government keeps the world on a leash with an ever-swelling war chant.”


“Israel’s nuclear power is a danger to the already fragile peace of the world. This statement has triggered an outcry. Because it’s true. And because it was made by a German, Guenter Grass, author and Nobel Prize winner. That is the key point. One must, therefore, thank him for taking it upon himself to speak for us all.”


“Israel is threatened by Islamic fundalmentalists in its neighborhood. But the Jews also have their fundamentalists, the ultra-orthodox Hareidim. They are not a small splinter group. They make up 10% of the Israeli population. They are cut from the same cloth as their Islamic fundamentalist opponents. They follow the law of revenge.”


“The fire burns in Libya, Sudan, Yemen, in countries which are among the poorest on earth. But those who set the fires live elsewhere. Furious young people burn the American, and recently, the German flag. They, too, are victims, just like the dead at Benghazi and Sanaa. Whom does this all this violence benefit? Always the insane and unscrupulous. And this time it’s the U.S. Republicans and Israeli government.”


“Gaza is a place out of the end of times….1.7 million people live there on 360 sq. kilometers. Israel incubates its own opponents there.”

Don't we agree with everything he wrote? I do. I proudly share the merits of Latuff and Augstein. And neither them nor I can be accused of racism (of which antisemitism would be a particular subset or expression) we can be accused of something very different: of defending Human Rights for everyone regardless of whether they are American, European, African or Asian. Regardless of whether they are Arab or Jewish or both. 

The only ones who should be accused here are the Zionists who aim to devaluate and degrade the meaning of the term antisemitism (of such sad memory) just because they want to use it as tool of their own racism, of their own antisemitism, of their own genocidal frenzy. 

They must be stopped.

¹ Zionism: imperialist colonialist European movement that aims to carve a homeland for Jews in Palestine (and maybe other ill-defined lands of West Asia and North Africa) on the mythical pretext that Jews originated there. To achieve this they must perform a massive genocide because, obviously, the natives of Palestine (who are surely more truly Jewish than modern Jews by deep ancestry) are not going to leave just because, much less after living there, generation after generation, from probably Neolithic times or even before. 

² Hasbara: Hebrew term that means Propaganda.

  1. You count Libya as a poor nation. I think it wasn't so till very recent times. The point about the Palestinians being Semitic is a very good one.

    I read a report about world religions on Reuters recently and it stated that Jews have the highest median age - IIRC 36. Couple that with the declining US power/economy, which provides the primary nourishment for the State of Israel, and one can get an idea about the Israeli hurry for breaking up the countries in their vicinity - in order to create the promised bigger State for themselves.

    I also read that Vladimir Putin turned anti-Jewish when he learned that the Jewish money was funding Chechen separatist moevment, is that correct?

    1. Well, those are the words of Augstein, not mine - and the paragraphs chosen by the SWC, not me. I subscribe the general meaning and intent and not necessarily each word - certainly I agree with you that Libya was not poor... but it doesn't change the overall meaning.

      "I also read that Vladimir Putin turned anti-Jewish when he learned that the Jewish money was funding Chechen separatist moevment, is that correct?"

      I doubt it. The Russian Mafia and the Jewish Mafia are tightly interconnected, often being the same. Unlike in other countries, in Russia, especially after generations of atheist regime, there's no clear line between ethnic Jews and the rest: every other Russian, so to say, is partly Jewish. That does not mean that Putin is pro-Israel because they obviously have opposed geostrategical interests in many cases, notably Georgia (which was equipped and trained by Israel... and lost).

      But Chechen and other Caucasian Islamist militias are rather the work of Saudi Arabia. That is related but not exactly the same as Israel. Both work within the frame of the US Empire and almost invariably end up converging but while Georgia's military suicide was indeed a failed Zionist plot, I doubt that Chechens have Zionist support... directly.

    2. I doubt it. The Russian Mafia and the Jewish Mafia are tightly interconnected, often being the same.

      That is interesting. So would you say that the Jewish contribution to the Russian gene pool is so significant? I read somewhere that the Mongol/East Eurasian contribution to the modern Russian gene pool is pretty significant. That can be understood as the Mongols/Turkic people ruled over large parts of today's Russia for centuries.

      I don't know if it ties in with this topic but from what I have read the Russians have purchased a lot of land in Cambodia and are pretty active in Goa too. There are Israelis in Goa too and I guess America would be investing in Cambodia and the other ASEAN countries. There have been Anti-Zionist explosions in some Latin American countries as well. To me it seems that the Russian way to increase influence is by purchasing land and partnerships with local governments while the Jewish way is through money.

      With Israel supporting some of the rebels in Syria - I don't think the Russian-Israeli ties would be that sweet.

      China is no doubt the primary force in Cambodia, Burma, and some other ASEAN countries. As you noted elsewhere on this blog - the US' primary modus operandi seems invasion while the Chinese are spreading their influence by business keeping in mind their limitations.

      Out of Russia, the USA, Israel, and China - IMO the last seems best placed for increased dominance in the coming decades.

    3. I don't have ground to say that but in order to compare the genetics, it'd be necessary first to study Russian Jews as a separate group, something that has not be done in most cases. Whatever the case that what I tell you I have read more than once from Russians themselves in most cases.

      Zionist newest settlements in the West Bank are full of Russian Jews, some of which not long ago sported Nazi aesthetics and ideology and even there was on case of racist beating of another Israeli on the grounds of being "Jewish", go figure. It was a scandal and was not so long ago.

      In other parts of Eastern Europe we often find people involved into Neonazism that either discover themselves their hidden Jewish origins (a Polish skinhead years ago) or are uncovered by their peers as Jewish, as happened recently with the leader and founder of the paramilitary branch of the Hungarian Nazi party Jobbik. Hitler himself was plausibly half-Jewish by his 'unknown' father (his mother worked as maid for an affluent Jewish home and there was a case of unwilling pregnancy, rape or not - he had in any case the African-originated lineage E1b which is rare in Austria but not-so-rare among Jews).

      Now that does not mean that Jews have been a vector of massive West Asian genetic inputs in Europe, just that we all have many ancestors, more and more as we go backwards in time.

    4. "With Israel supporting some of the rebels in Syria"...

      It is anything but clear that Israel prefers the downfall of Assad. It is Turkey and Saudia who are arming the rebels with the placet of the USA. Israel is probably OK with the Baaz regime as it is now and can only lose with any sort of Arab democratization, which will unavoidably be actively Antizionist.

      The Arab Spring began in Tunisia and will end in Jerusalem for sure (but first Riyadh). Israel cannot be at ease with that at all.

      "There have been Anti-Zionist explosions in some Latin American countries as well".

      In general Latin peoples are pro-Palestinian, in Europe as in America (main exception may be Argentine, which has a very strong Jewish community, including prominent capitalists). But talking of "explosions" seems a nonsense: Palestine is far away from America and poor people have other priorities.

      "... China (...) seems best placed for increased dominance in the coming decades".

      For World dominance first of all you need a World worth that name. I mean that we are facing major existential problems as Humankind and who rules a wasteland seems pretty much irrelevant.
