…The corruption in Western culture takes various forms. The pornography of popular culture and entertainment. MTV’s regular fare is what used to be called pornographic a generation ago. Hollywood movies. Pay TV movies. The language is filth; the stories are sex and violence.

And here in Israel we experience the corruption of our generation’s variety of Jew-hatred: the hatred of Israel, the titanic emotions in such as Tony Blair’s sister in law and millions of Muslim lunatics. And their helpers in the West.

On Friday the Post’s Benjamin Weinthal in Berlin reported on the intention of Foreign Minister Guido Westerwalle to attend on 22 September in New York City the Durban III Hate the Jews Jamboree. That for me is one major and truly worrying sign of the times: that Germany’s FM would be such a shameless antiJew. The Weinthal piece was about efforts by the Jewish community there and at least one member of the Bundestag who belongs to Merkel’s party to get Westerwalle to follow along with Italy and the Netherlands and the Czech Republic and now Australia to boycott what is so obviously a gathering of antisemites. It is simply breathtaking that Germany at this stage is still planning to attend this cousin of George Orwell’s “Two Minutes of Hate.”

Jew-hatred since the eruption of the Al Aqsa Intifada 11 years ago is back in fashion only camouflaged as pity for the victims of those terrible Israelis. Last Thursday the Washington Times reported on the latest Wikileaks dump which revealed an Israeli embassy cable from Ankara to Tel-Aviv in October 2009 from Israel’s ambassador Gabby Levy describing Erdogan’s religious hostility to Israel, because he is a fundamentalist Muslim.

And on Friday Makor Rishon reported on an anonymous Turkish investigative journalist – afraid to use his own name – digging up Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s past as a Nazi lover and author in the earlier 1970s of an antisemitic play, that the censor eventually closed, in addition to his known four months in jail for seditious poetry.

It was the British poet W. H. Auden who, following the outbreak of WWII with the Nazi invasion of Poland on 1 September, 1939 called the 1930s a “low, dishonest decade” and that is one we live in now too.

Last Thursday, Robert Serry the UN Special Coordinator of the Middle East Peace Process – who obviously has become a well-paid man for doing nothing because there is no process – expressed “deep concern” over the “resurgence of violence in Gaza and southern Israel.”

That is a low, dishonest comment if there ever was one. A “resurgence of violence.” These antisemitic Muslim murderers, Mr. Serry, ambushed innocent Jewish people in the family car and took their lives.

Israel answers by killing those who sent the murderers, and in retaliation scores of rockets are launched at random into Jewish communities. This is a “resurgence of violence” he says and he urged “both sides to immediately take steps to prevent further escalation.”

“Both sides.” This is this generation’s sick, antiJew corruption…
