From the Seraphic Secret blog. Sourcing at bottom.
Jewish history, from time immemorial, is littered with Jewish Jew-haters. Sometimes they come in the guise of religious reformers, Korach's revolt is a prime example.
At other times, Jewish Jew-haters are more forthright, claiming that Torah Judaism is a fossil that must be discarded in favor of a more, ahem, enlightened, secular culture. The rebellion of the Maccabees was aimed as much at Hellenized Jews as it was against the oppressive Greek-Assyrians.
The most notorious of the Jewish Jew-haters were the Judenrat, Jewish councils put in place by the Nazis to help carry out the genocide of the Jewish people. Members of the Judenrat always justified their treason by claiming that, in the end, they were in service to the Jewish people. Of course, they were in service to their own selfish needs and they simply enabled the machinery of genocide to proceed unimpeded.
Communism was -- and still is, as Hugo Chavez is a classic Marxist Jew-hater -- a magnet for Jew-hating Jews. The Bolsheviks boasted scores of high-level Jews who willingly persecuted their Jewish brethren in the name of international Communism. Trotsky's real name was Lev Davidovich Bronstein, and he was one of the most ruthless of murderers. Of course, even as Stalin made Jew-hatred state policy in the Soviet Union, American Jewish Communists continued to support this genocider.
Read the works of Jewish writer Isaac Babel as he rides with Red Cavalry gangs as they gleefully commit pogroms against defenseless Jews. In clinical detail, Babel describes the beheadings of rabbis, the mass rape of Jewish women, Jewish babies disemboweled, but Babel never protests, even to himself. In fact, Babel's contempt for the Jewish martyrs simmers beneath the oh-so-elegant prose. Ultimately, Stalin declared Babel a a saboteur—code for Jew—and had him tortured and murdered in the notorious Butyrka prison.
Jews who turn against Jews—for the good of the Jews, natch—in the hope of being accepted by the persecutors always end up dangling from the hangman's noose. It's an immutable law of Jew-hatred. After the Judenrat were done sending Jews to Auschwitz, they were rewarded with, well, Auschwitz.
With the advent of the modern Zionism, the Jewish Jew-haters—most notably in academia, Jew-hatred as sophisticated political thought—turned their attention to delegitimizing Israel, the first step in wiping Israel off the face of the earth.
Certainly, the most insidious group to attack Israel—in the name of Israel advocacy—is J Street, a group of Democrat Obama radicals who, using the Orwellian tactic of inverting language—hatred is love—are mounting the latest campaign against Jews and Israel.
In fact, J Street is more anti-Israel than Israel's sworn enemies.
Morton Klein confronts their rabid duplicity:
Is J Street a pro-Israel group? The lobbying organization never tires of claiming it is.
Yet what pro-Israel group would invite a man to speak at its forthcoming conference who has called for Israel's destruction, stating that "the establishment by force, violence and terrorism of a Jewish state in Palestine in 1948" was "unjust" and "a crime," and vowed to "work to overturn the injustice"?
The man who signed this Sept. 17, 1993 statement by the Muslim Public Affairs Council was its executive director, Salam Al-Marayati, who will be speaking next month at J Street's Oct. 25-28 conference.
Full story at The Jewish Press.
It is no secret that Obama favors the Arab Muslim funded J Street. What would you expect from the most anti-Israel U.S. President in memory?
