…Israel-bashing has been common behavior since there was an Israel, I guess. This nation is unique in so many ways, one of them being the participation of so many of its people in the Jew-bashing style of the day.

In about the year 100, the classic Jewish prayer called the 18 Blessings was modified and a 19th clause was added that was no blessing but the opposite. In Rabbi Sachs’s Koren translation, “For the slanderers let there be no hope, and may wickedness perish in an instant. May all Your people’s enemies swiftly be cut down. May You swiftly uproot, crush, cast down and humble the arrogant swiftly in our days. Bless are You, Lord, who destroys enemies and humbles the arrogant.”

And his commentary calls the 19th “Against Informers.” “The original object was the sectarians that split the Jewish world during the late Second Temple period,” which description I find a bit too polite. In the Nusach Ashkenaz version, there is no reference to the minim/the sects but is there in Nusach Sefarad.

And for sure one of the hostile sects in mind at the time were the Christian Jews, as scholars call them, the first Christians who were all Jews living here for about a century with their drive to dejudaize the religion. They were perceived enough of a threat to trigger the insertion of this 19th clause meant to drive them from the synagogues. And in the end, after they truly betrayed the people they were born into by siding with Emperor Hadrian and his Romans in the Bar Kochva revolt, they were persona grata in Eretz Yisrael. And in fact turned to the gentiles to spread the new faith…

…Yesterday, the High Court in Herzlandia, named for the Reform Jew for whom salvation meant stripping the Jewish people of their religion and having a state like all the goyim, was at it again, interfering in the conduct of foreign affairs, as it has interfered in military operations, this time tearing up the government’s policy in the matter of medical care provided to the enemy, even as the enemy with his rockets, mortars and fire kites terrorizes thousands of Jewish people – and I deliberately say “Jewish” not Israeli people, because the Ishmaelites firing at us did not respect Israeli identity. They see us only as Jews in rebellion against our Quranically-mandated oppression and humiliation…

…Palestinian Nationalism is this generation’s format for hating and snarling at Jews for being the Chosen People. In this generation, the AntiJew cloaks himself as a supporter of the self-described Ancient Palestinians victimized by the Jews who stole their land from them – and never mind photographic evidence from the earliest years of photography that exhibits the desolation of the Eretz Yisrael in the generation before the birth of the modern resurrection of the Promised Land by Jews. Herman Melville in 1857 called this country, a caked depopulated hell. Mark Twain ten years later said it “sits in sackcloth and ashes.”

After 1840, when the Turks for the first time since the Crusades allowed Christians to visit and Christian countries to open consulates, Cooke’s Tours would eventually organize trips for tourists to the Holy Land, to Syria as it was called, because there was no jurisdiction under the Muslims called Palestine. My book opens with the list of 55 national and communities living in Israel in 1905 not one of them called Palestinian…

…Excluding the Chinese and the Indians with their populations mind-boggling size, most of the world is either Christian or Muslim, and what are they if not rooted in the story of G-d commanding our Avraham to bind his son Yitzhak for a human sacrifice.

Perhaps He knew man learns best not only through wise words but action, the acting out of a lesson, dramatizing it if you will. HaShem sent the 10th generation descendent of Shem son of Noah to the Land of Canaan to launch the process of dispossessing the Canaanites of the Land they occupied at the nexus of the three major continents, Europe, Asia, Africa.

HaShem tells Avraham that in four hundred years’ time, a nation will come from him that will dispossess the Hamitic wild men of the land and implant the spirit of Shem son of Noah. And what a nice and curious coincidence that the very same name, Shem, became for Jews the proper, respectful way of speaking about the ineffable Creator…

…Hamitic Islam logically must be anti-Shemitic. That was the original spelling and pronunciation of the term. Over time the “h” fell away and thus the words Semitic and antisemitism were born, the second one being one of the most dishonest, really Orwellian word.

The word antisemitism is like the word “Palestinian,” a verbal phenomenon meant to deceive. The term antisemitism makes no sense for it implies as Semitism that does not exist. The term Semitic originated among philologists in the 18th century to label Hebrew and cognate languages. Do a Google on that expression Hebrew and cognate and languages and see what you find…

…Friday morning, Haaretz headlined, “Details of cease-fire emerge: Israel to rebuild Gaza, do prisoner swap, with Hamas.” Then the text: “Three senior Israeli official told Haaretz that the understanding includes six main clauses, comprehensive cease-fire the reopening of Gaza’s border crossings, an expansion of the permitted fishing zone; medical and humanitarian assistance; resolving the issue of captive soldiers and civilians, a broad reconstruction of Gaza’s infrastructure with foreign funding and discussions about sea and airports.”

In a word, this is the mugging of Israel. Starting March 30, the Muslims in Gaza began attacking with intent to damage Israel’s defense barrier, Israeli property, as well as trying to kill Israeli soldiers with rocks and Molotov cocktails. Then came the fire kites and balloons, but now Israel is now prepared to buy off the mugger, get him to stop by offering these inducements like medical and humanitarian assistance. Apparently, we haven’t given them enough, and never mind the years of Gazans getting free medical treatment in Soroka Hospital in Beersheva…

…But Israel has not evolved for the better in the realm of national pride, judging by the growth of the malignant political left in the MSM. For example, the newspaper Haaretz which used to be – just think of the name, Haaretz, short for Land of Israel – used to be a Zionist newspaper. Today, a major shareholder is German gentiles, and not surprisingly Haaretz today reflects the Euro-Left epitomized by Dr. Mogherini, who represents this generation of European antiJews. The European hatred of Jews for killing Jesus has gone out of fashion; today the evil of the Jews is their crime of stealing Palestine from the Palestinians. The medieval Catholic priest on Good Fridays squawking from his pulpit on the perfidy of the Jews, the required sermon topic for the day, has been replaced by the Communist Jeremy Corbyn squawking that Israelis in recent weeks have killed dozens of Palestinian children…

…And so, it is no coincidence that the rise of the evil Third Reich in Germany was coterminous with its Fuhrer who simultaneously hated Jews and loved Wagner’s grandiose operas rooted in pre-Christian German folklore and paganism. In our generation, Wagner’s great-grandson, who hated German Nazism, gave lectures on the connection between the covert antisemitism buried in his forebear’s operas and the Holocaust. They are not only celebrations of pagan Germans but sub rosa aggression against the Jews.

As I often point out, Nazism, Marxist Communism and Islam are all totalitarian haters of Jews, and so is Jeremy Corbyn. And I find it interesting that as the US had a Jew-hating Muslim as president for eight years, so the Labour Party in England is now led by another cockeyed antiJew as deranged as a David Irving, or Mahmoud Abbas.

The Daily Mail exposed Corbyn at a memorial for Fatah terrorists in Tunisia and his self-defense is textbook verbiage for this type of denier of the truth about Jews…

…The truth was on display last night, big time. The top story in Israel today was the gathering in the St. Isaac Rabin Square in Tel-Aviv of Arabs with citizenship allegedly protesting the Nationality Law but in truth identifying with the enemy. If they, in truth, had come to protest being excluded from the State of Israel in some way that harms or offends them, they would have been waving the Israeli flag, acting like Druze who fight and die for that flag, that state in which they live and live better than in Lebanon or Syria.

Instead, these protestors protesting their exclusion from Israeli society in some way were waving the flag of Balestine and chanting exactly what the Ishmaelites in Judea and Samaria have been known to chant. “With spirit and blood, we will redeem you, Falastin. Israel is a terrorist state…an Arab Balestine from the sea to the River Jordan.”

…So you all know that over the last 24 hours over 200 projectiles, rockets, mortars, small arms fire, and flying incendiaries, have terrorized thousands of Jews. Maybe you saw the video from Sderot yesterday where the rockets came crashing down, and the Jews could be heard shrieking in terror for their lives, especially the children, all of them scrambling for a bomb shelter.

70 years after the founding of the Zionist state, goyim are still trying to murder us. And even if they don’t — I mean, only four Jews were wounded, only four — the murderous Muslims in Gaza have the pleasure of terrorizing Jews, disrupting their lives, making them screaming in fear. For these Muslims, this is pleasure…

…As I’ve said before, what strengthens my belief in the G-d of Israel as much as anything is the angry and snarling enemies who via their hostility bear witness to the power of the Jewish idea.

According to the Jewish Press this afternoon, the rally in Tel-Aviv two nights ago was funded by a group call Anu, meaning “We,” that in turn in funded by the New Israel Fun, the European Union, the UNESCO and the Shocken Fund.

This is wonderful. There can be no greater validation to the truth of the Nation-State law than the reactions of antiJews the world over. The UN in New York and Geneva; the EU in Brussels, the New Israel Fund in New York and Washington backing Israeli antiJews. Anu informed the news media that they were the “headquarters if the struggle against the Nationality Law” that is, basically, nothing but classical Zionism…

…The topic of how much the Jews should be allowed into society was endless. In the post-religious 19th century, it was no longer logical to hate Jews as deicides, when a person no longer believed in the divinity of the Nazarene. So what the gentiles did was redefine the Jews as not a nation within a nation. The Jews as a nation started out in the womb of Egypt, and in its dispersion remained a nation within nations. But now in the age of the study of religion as a scientific pursuit, with anthropological pioneers studying the world’s races, the Jews were redefined as a race and the negativity toward this race called eventually antisemitism. The first antisemites made the case that the Jews were racially, that is biologically, so different, their offensive ideas and behaviors could not be removed by allowing them greater penetration into society…

…The older I get, the more I see of life, the more I am convinced of the truth of the Bible. And what convinces me is the mind-boggling genius of the writing, the amazing, immortal history of the Jewish people, and the behavior of antiJews like Jeremy Corbyn, like Adolf Hitler, like David Irving, all of them with minds that off the rails.

What all display is an attachment to Jews no less powerful than that which propels yours truly every morning to bind my weak side arm and my head with the Torah miSinai and keep G-d in mind all day in numerous normal activities, like eating and answering nature’s call.

As Jewishness is an all-consuming pursuit for a serious Jew, so Adolf Hitler was consumed by his insane hatred of Jews 24-7…
