RUTHFULLY YOURS

In condemning Jews who speak out against jihad and Islamic supremacism, leftist rabbis are enabling the worst enemies of the Jewish people.

Last Monday in the Toronto Star, Rabbi Dow Marmur wrote an article criticizing what he referred to as my “customary rants against Islam,” saying that they would “create tensions between the two communities.”

“Rants against Islam,” i.e. condemnations of Islamic anti-Semitism, hatred of infidels, wife beating, honor killing, clitoridectomies, murder of apostates, denial of the freedom of speech, and so much more. On the heels of three anti-Semitic attacks in Montreal, another Canadian rabbi saw fit to condemn a fellow Jew for the crime of telling the truth about how jihadists use core Islamic teachings to justify various kinds of violence.

Nor was he the first rabbi to do so – a chorus of rabbis have condemned my work, claiming that it interferes with their dialogue with Muslims. But what are these rabbis really accomplishing with his dialogue, other than to obscure the root causes of the Islamic anti-Semitism that is increasing around the world? Rabbi Eric Yoffie recently published a vicious and defamatory piece attacking me in The Jerusalem Post. Where was Yoffie countering “hate” when Islamic jihadists murdered the Fogel family in Israel? Or when jihadists targeted the Chabad house in Mumbai for a savage and bloody attack? Or when Christians are persecuted on an increasingly frequent and violent basis in Egypt, Pakistan, Indonesia and elsewhere? Instead, he opposes me for standing up against this real hatred.

Counterterrorism expert Patrick Poole has compiled a meticulously-documented record of […]

While most of Israeli academia is the occupied territories of the radical tenured Left, no other institution besides Ben Gurion University has essentially made leftist anti-Israel agitprop its raison d’etre. At Ben Gurion University the notorious Department of Politics continues to operate as the worst anti-Israel indoctrination center in the country. It is a department in which no pro-Israel or non-leftist opinion may be expressed. It routinely holds one-sided “academic conferences” in which only Marxist or leftist anti-Israel opinion may be voiced. After its misbehavior and atrociously low academic standards became the focus of a report by a special international panel of experts appointed by Israel’s Council on Higher Education, Ben Gurion University carried out “reforms” in the department consisting of hiring even more anti-Israel leftists to teach there.

At Ben Gurion University animosity to Israel is a sufficient condition for a faculty member to be hired, and in some departments it is also a necessary condition. Pluralism and diversity at Ben Gurion University consist of having men and women, Arabs and Jews, Ashkenazim and Mizrachim and others all indoctrinate students in leftist ideology. In other words, pluralism of thought is widely suppressed on the campus. Academic standards are often trashed there when anti-Israel faculty are hired, and churning out Bash-Israel hate propaganda “counts” at BGU as scholastic achievement and academic excellence.

All of this is largely the doing of Ben Gurion University’s current leftist president, Rivka Carmi, although previous presidents of BGU were just as bad. (Carmi’s predecessor was Avishai Braverman, a Labor Party politician and the only “economist” in Israel who does not know that the minimum wage causes unemployment. Before him was Shlomo Gazit, another leftist activist, who favors international arming of the Hezb’Allah terrorists.)

The body politic just can’t take it any more and throws up everything. The result would suit the Democrats just fine. The Democrats pushing immigration reform want the issue, not the reform, and they think a defeat they could hang on the Republicans could give […]

The concept of the frontier, in Jewish terms, is not merely economic, political or geographical.

In 1862, at the beginning of the Civil War, Congress passed and president Abraham Lincoln signed the Homestead Act, which granted unclaimed and uninhabited state land to American “settlers.”
This act was meant to encourage pioneer farmers, some of whom referred to their new territory with biblical names, like “Zion.”

To a large extent, these pioneers defined America’s national character – “rugged individualism,” boldness and courage and a deep belief in American destiny. The frontier became a symbol of American freedom, independence and ingenuity.

Nearly 75 years ago, an American historian, Frederick Jackson Turner, asked a fascinating question that has been the subject of professional debate ever since and that might be relevant for Israel: What was the impact of the frontier on American history? He proposed that the frontier functioned as a sort of socioeconomic safety valve and was a perennial democratizing force in American society. The loss of the frontier (around the turn of the century), he concluded, meant not only the loss of land, but the loss of an ideal – “liberty” and “freedom of opportunity” and a “creative vision of a new order of society.” Settlement of the West was, Turner believed, the essence of the American experience.

I am a crime series junkie. I particularly enjoy some of the Scandinavian police stories….”Wallander” and ” The Protectors” and “The Eagle” and currently I am in the middle of “MI-5 ” on the British intelligence unit. The series was originally titled “Spooks.”

There is a pervading and perverse theme among all these programs…..

Almost all atrocities presumed to be perpetrated by Muslims turn out to be perpetrated by fanatic right wing groups helped by American and British government contractors.

America and its intelligence operations are routinely derided as warmongers, torturers, Islamophobic and venal.

Israel and particularly the Mossad are brutal, duplicitous and monstrous. In a most egregious episode of MI-5, the Mossad killers pose as Arabs and take the Saudi Embassy in Britain hostage, killing Arab diplomats. At the end of the episode a big, hulky Israeli Mossad ringmaster says “Shalom” to the appalled and offended MI-5 agent.

In a Danish series, one of the good cops is Jewish and gratuitously bemoans how Israel has become an occupier and tormentor of Arabs. He is ashamed, ashamed.

And now it appears that the Vikings and the Brits are losing their sovereignty, their courts, their culture to Islam. Tut tut….

Their TV series of the future will be all about the glories of the niqab, the hijab, the jihad…..Instead of “The Protectors” there will be a great series called “The Beheaders.” tut tut
