Bill DeBlasio insists that Trump’s rhetoric and growing white supremacy are the cause for the increase in the number and intensity of anti-Semitic attacks in New York City and surrounding communities. However, those are peculiar root causes considering that the assailants have consistently been minorities, usually blacks, none of whom are part of the recognized Trump demographic.
Like DeBlasio, Democrat Jews also try to deny this reality, for they find mystifying the fact that the black community they marched arm-in-arm with during the Civil Rights Movement should now turn on them. Their befuddlement and misdirection ignore the role that Islam plays in rising anti-Semitism among an activist segment of Leftist, urban blacks.
Before going any further, let me hasten to state that this post is not meant to accuse American blacks generally of being anti-Semitic. It is meant, however, to investigate one reason behind the reality that a narrow subset of blacks is becoming more violently anti-Semitic.
Andrew Bostom, who has spent decades studying Islam, has issued a series of tweets showing that the anti-Semitism that animates Louis Farrakhan and his supporters has been incubating among urban blacks since the early 1960s. For example, Dr. Bostom quotes from Louis E. Lomax’s When the word is given; a report on Elijah Muhammad, Malcolm X, and the Black Muslim world. (Cleveland, World Pub. Co., 1963, pp. 72-73):
Malcolm [X] has always maintained excellent relations with top Arabs at the United Nations. Few, if any, of these meetings were ever public. But they did occur and there is every indication that they are still going on. The road to Mecca was cleared long before Malcolm and Elijah [Muhammad] left these shores; powerful pro-Nasser Arabs are quietly in Malcolm’s corner, and many Black Muslim bazaars open with the reading of cabled greetings from ‘Our Beloved Brother Gamal Abdel Nasser.’ . . . [B]oth (black) Muslim and Moslem (orthodox Muslims) worship Allah. And that – at least so the hajj committee said – is all that matters. . . . The Black Muslims carefully describe themselves as ‘anti-Zionist’ rather than as against the Jews. (Emphasis mine.)
