DANIEL GREENFIELD: BREIVIXPLOITATION PART 2

ABE FOXMAN BREAKS INTO THE ISLAMOPHOBIA BUSINESS
Somewhere there’s a universe where Abe Foxman is managing a pizza shop. Unfortunately this isn’t it. Instead Abe hopped out of his burrow to pen an op-ed in response to the Breivik shootings.
The attacks in Norway seem to stem from a different source. They are the first to emerge from a relatively new, specifically anti-Islamic ideology that moves beyond religious or racial prejudices to incorporate anti-Islamic sentiment as the focal point of a larger worldview.
Actually Breivik was waging war against what he viewed as cultural marxism and saw Muslims as potential allies in that war… but it’s Abe Foxman. If he gets the day of the week right, it’s a score for the ADL research department.
Adherents of this ideological Islamophobia view Islam as an existential threat to the world, especially to the “West.”
So basically anyone who notices that Islamic terrorism is a major problem is a bigot. Only the ostriches are moral.
The Oslo perpetrator in his manifesto quoted extensively from the writings of European and American bloggers — including Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller — who promote a conspiratorial anti-Muslim agenda under the pretext of fighting radical Islam.
Actually he quoted other writes, people like Fjordman, who quoted Spencer, who quoted the Koran.
Like I’m quoting Abe Foxman now. I’m quoting him extensively right now. It’s clear from this that Abe is now complicit in anything I say and do.
This belief system goes far beyond anti-Islamic prejudice based on simple religious or racial grounds. In a sense, it parallels the creation of an ideological — and far more deadly — form of anti-Semitism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries on the backs of the previously dominant cultural and religious forms of anti-Semitism.
Foxman’s weak analogy might fare better if 19th century Jews had gone around waving signs that Judaism would rule Europe. Or if 21st century Muslims were suspected of drinking blood on major holidays, instead of blowing up buildings.
One bizarre twist to Breivik’s warped worldview was his pro-Zionism — his strongly expressed support for the state of Israel. It is a reminder that we must always be wary of those whose love for the Jewish people is born out of hatred of Muslims or Arabs.
Ah, but we must be far warier of executives of Jewish organizations with huge salaries whose Zionism ends at the point where they have to stand up to Muslim anti-semitism.
In the United States, we have seen frequent manifestations of this ideology, including the eager promotion by anti-Islamic zealots of a growing conspiracy theory about “creeping Sharia law.”
Speaking of things the ADL should be doing instead of pandering shamelessly to the Muslim Brotherhood’s Islamophobia scam… is things like this.
Toronto–A synagogue in the city’s northeast end was the target of anti-Semitic graffiti.
Staff members of Beth Tikvah Synagogue on Thursday found the words “Islam will rule” and a swastika spray-painted on the exterior of their building.
Clearly this horrendous act was carried out by some Islamophobe. “Islam Will Rule” reveals his faith in conspiracy theories about creeping Sharia.
RIGHT WING NORWEGIAN CHRISTIANS BOMB CHURCH IN IRAQ
A car bomb outside a Christian church in northern Iraq exploded Tuesday morning, injuring 23 people.
Police say the bomb in the northern city of Kirkuk heavily damaged the Syrian Catholic church. The church’s parish leader, the Rev. Imad Yalda, was the only person inside the building at the time of the blast and was wounded.
The 22 others also wounded in the explosion were people whose nearby homes were hit by the blast.
There’s no question that we must stand up to this latest act of Islamophobia.The message must be sent loud and clear that we will ignore this atrocity.
OCEANIA FINALLY PURGES ANNOYING DISSIDENT
Fjordman’s name has been made public and he’s gone into hiding. There is varying information on whether he will continue his work. Certainly he won’t do it as Fjordman.
Of course there is no media concern about a backlash, as there is after Muslim terrorist attacks. Instead there are pieces on how important it is to silence critics of Islam.
So the response to a Muslim terrorist attack is to warn against associating the attacker with all Muslims. And the response to a right wing attack is to associate the attacker with everyone to the right of Marx.
TURKISH THUGS THREATEN TO OCCUPY MORE OF CYPRUS
Turkey on Friday threatened to show the “necessary response” to any move by Cyprus to start exploratory drilling for offshore gas deposits.
Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said Cyprus had no right to go ahead with efforts to search for gas before a settlement to reunify the divided island will be reached.
“No one has the right to do anything over the island’s natural resources … before the Cyprus issue isn’t resolved,” Davutoglu told reporters. There must be an administration representing both parts of the island, he insisted.
Yes, no one has the right to it until Turkey seizes the whole thing and places it under their own unified administration.
Meanwhile number of European activists protesting Turkey’s occupation of Cyprus or Kurdistan?
