The Reality Of Present Day Anti-Semitism.
Or To Be More Precise: Anti-Jewish Sentiment.
Anti-Semitism or a
justifiable demand that Israelis stop persecuting Palestinians?

“It is highly probable that the bulk of the Jew’s
ancestors ‘never’ lived in Palestine ‘at all,’ which witnesses the power of
historical assertion over fact.”

The reality is that by simply
asking such a valid question innocent people can become targets for
unjustified accusations of anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial which together
have become the most powerful weapon — by conflating Zionism with Judaism — for
silencing criticism of, or preventing activism against Israeli violations of
international law including a barbarous disregard for human rights. Maintaining
this effective Zionist policy has required the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and
other Jewish groups to covertly contribute vast sums, to politically coerce,
and to calculatingly con the mainstream media into perpetuating the totally
false premise that only Jews are semites. This appropriation of the word
“semite” and the subsequent evolvement of the term “anti-Semitism” has with
irresponsible impunity facilitated the silencing of Israel’s critics even to
the extent of wrecking their careers, their social standing, and their lives.
Consequently people in politics, the media, and other public service
professions cringe at at the thought of being labeled, “anti-semitic” and
unfortunately — even against the better judgment of their conscience — succumb
to Zionist blackmail, bribery, or bullying and publicly present themselves as
being diehard supporters of Israel.

“Israelis and American Jews fully agree that the memory
of the Holocaust is an indispensable weapon — one
that must be used relentlessly against their common enemy . . . Jewish
organisations and individuals thus labour continuously to remind the world of
it. In America, the perpetuation of the Holocaust memory is now a
$100-million-a-year enterprise, part of which is government funded.”

According to Israeli author Moshe Leshem, the
expansion of Israeli power is commensurate with the expansion of ‘Holocaust’ propaganda.

So what exactly is a semite?
Diligent, impartial research will reveal that the word “semite” has no relation
with any particular religious group or ethnicity, but with a group of semitic
languages: Amharic (spoken by Ethiopians and Eritreans in lands formerly known
as Abyssinia); Arabic (spoken by Arabs and others in Muslim countries because
it is the language of the Qur’an); Aramaic (spoken mostly by the Chaldeans of
Iraq, some Catholics, and Maronite Christians at least liturgically if not
socially); Hebrew (spoken by Israelis, some Jews, and others outside of
Israel); and Syriac (spoken by some in various parts of Syria and the Middle
East). Linguistic experts also point out that Abraham, the father of the Arabs
and Jews, did not speak Hebrew, but Aramaic which was then the language of the
land.

Anti-Semitism: The word anti-Semitism was an invention;

H.H. Beamish, in a New York address, October 30 – November 1, 1937:
“In 1848 the word ‘anti-Semitic’ was invented by the
Jews to prevent the use of the word ‘Jew.’ The right word for them is ‘Jew’.”
Jews to prevent the use of the word ‘Jew.’ The right word for them is ‘Jew’.”
Ever
since the Jews invented the libel charge of ‘anti-Semitism’ in the 1880s. It was first printed in the Jewish
Encyclopaedia (1901 Vol. 1, p. 641), and has been built up with Jewish money,
organisations, propaganda and lies (such as the Holocaust — Holohoax), so that now the word is like a snake venom
which paralyses one’s nervous system. Even the mention of the word ‘Jew’ is shunned
unless used in a most favourable and positive context.

Furthermore, actual genetic Jews
are from Spain, Portugal, North Africa and the Middle East and are known as
“Sephardic,” a word derived from the Hebrew “Sepharad,” which relates to Spain.
Sephardic Jews, because of familiarity with their own history and the true
meaning of the word “semite,” tend to avoid using the term “anti-Semite”
because it is utter nonsense. Alternatively, Ashkenazi Jews who exploit
Israel’s Law of Return — Israeli legislation passed on 5 July 1950, giving Jews
the right of return, the right to live in Israel, and the right to acquire
citizenship — have as recent studies illustrate (http://www.livescience.com/40247-ashkenazi-jews-have-european-genes.html)
a maternal lineage derived largely from Europe which contradicts the notion
that European Jews are mostly descendants of people who left Israel and the
Middle East some 2,000 years ago. In 1970, Israel extended the right of entry
and settlement to include people of Jewish ancestry, and their spouses while in
the meantime forcibly expelled indigenous Palestinians (http://www.ifamericansknew.org/history/ref-nakba.html)
continue to have no such right.

Israelite a ‘Jew’ or to call a contemporary Jew an Israelite or a Hebrew.”

Well organised, incessant, and
shrill accusations of rampant “anti-Semitism” by Jewish organisations cannot
therefore be simply accepted with silent obedience and without question. To
begin with it is only right to acknowledge that anti-Jewish sentiment does
exist just as does Islamophobia, inter-religious hatred and racism because
fanaticism and ignorance are deleterious maladies that humanity has so far
failed to overcome. It is very hypocritical of Jewish organisations to demand
acknowledgement and respect for their human rights to be “Jewish” while denying
those same rights to the Palestinian people with more than 60 years of
persecution whose Nazi-style barbarity deserves to be classified as a
“Palestinian Holocaust.” In this respect, the mainstream media has a
journalistic obligation to shed its blatant Israeli bias (cowardice) and
instead encourage a public debate that clearly distinguishes between
anti-Jewish sentiment and justified criticism of consistent Israeli violations
of international law including human rights.

Jews must come to realise that
if they consistently insist to the rest of humanity that as “God’s chosen
people” they are by inference superior; that as such, God also promised them
and no one else the Holy Land; that because of their “Jewish specialness” they
must exercise an aloof separateness that discourages assimilation with
others and perceives a world of their own; that if they stifle justified
criticism of their criminality; that if they continue to blackmail, bribe, and
bully the rest of the world so as to achieve their selfish goals — then they
cannot expect to either win friends or influence people.

Jewish attitudes have also with
contemptuous presumption continued to encroach upon and undermine the the rest
of humanity’s right to free speech with the latest outrage being a request by
Israeli politicians that other nations across the world should enact
legislation outlawing any criticism of Jews or Israel. They claim that their
request is due to an apparent increase in “anti-semitism” across the world. It
is very hard to believe that a people chosen by God Himself are unable to
differentiate between abhorrent anti-Jewish sentiment and justified criticism
of Israel for its barbaric crimes against humanity.

“One has to realise that Israel’s efforts having
nothing to do with hate speech, anti-Semitism or holocaust denial, but are
rather about stifling critical speech that affects Israel and its lobbyists.
For example, we know that Israel and its lobbyists are not offended by
holocaust denial because Israel and its lobbyists are the leading proponents of
Armenian holocaust denial in the world today. Israel should also not be
particularly offended by anti-Semitism, because Israel is actually one of the
most racist and anti-Semitic nations on the planet.”

“The crime against the Palestinian people is being
committed by a Jewish state with Jewish soldiers using weapons displaying
Jewish religious symbols, and with the full support and complicity of the
overwhelming mass of organised Jews worldwide. But to name Jews as responsible
for this crime seems impossible to do.”

It may seem impossible to do,
but in order to save humanity — responsible people with a conscience and
respect for other human beings — must at all costs resist Zionism’s all out
onslaught on the right to free speech because without that right and an unfettered
mainstream media we become just brainwashed subjects rather than enlightened
citizens. The actuality of our becoming brainwashed citizens is unfortunately
already with us because in Britain for example any condemnation, protest, or
activism against Israel’s irrefutably barbaric treatment of the Palestinian
people is immediately met with accusations of anti-Semitism by a government
whose leaders threaten tough legislation to further criminalise criticism of
Jews or Israel. So rather than upholding their citizens’ noble right to demand
universal respect for human rights, Western leaders like Prime Minister David
Cameron insist that current legislation prohibiting discrimination or racism is
not good enough for Jews whose “specialism” and “separateness” require
additional laws to protect them and their rights while encroaching on the
rights of others. Cameron recently continued with his Jewish lobby appeasement
by announcing Government plans for a new £50million Holocaust memorial in
central London. Such benevolence raises the question of whether that money
would be better spent on medical aid to the traumatised and physically
mutilated victims of Israel’s latest genocidal assault on Gaza.
