"White Privilege" The Big Antisemitic Lie

re: language/word/term

I get terribly offended by the relatively new term "white privilege." Honestly, it's antisemitic. 

That nasty term hides/denies how most Jewish immigrants struggled in their early decades in America.

The vast majority of Jews who moved to the United Stated in the previous two centuries were fleeing poverty. The wealthy didn't come, only the poor. 

The "WASPS" didn't want them and quickly passed a quota law to keep Jews out. FDR wouldn't even fill the quota when those fleeing the Nazis tried to legally enter the United States. And if you check your history, Harry Truman didn't improve things after World War Two. Holocaust survivors had a very difficult time getting visas to live in America.

Sabbat observing Jews were discriminated against and needed new jobs weekly, or made do as independent peddlers. 

It didn't help that the Great Depression was making it hard on many. The last to be hired and first to be fired were Jews. 

Many Jews went to work as young as possible to help their families. Even those who graduated high school as academics ended up working, since they couldn't even afford the "free" universities. 

Those using the term "White Privilege" are inventing a false history, a lie. I find the term very offensive.

GUEST POST: Massacre Aftermath

Pittsburgh Synagogue Massacre Aftermath
(a guest post by Mr. Cohen)

Even after the Pittsburgh Synagogue Massacre, Jews are still not granted Victim Status according to the rules of Political Correctness.

I strongly suspect that Jews will NEVER be granted Victim Status according to the rules of Political Correctness, regardless of how much they suffer.

According to the rules of Political Correctness, Black Lives Matter, but Jewish lives do not matter, and I strongly suspect that they never will matter.

Muslims and African Americans have both been granted Victim Status by the Leftist Political Correctness people, even though both of those groups include high percentages of people who hate Jews.

A related problem, which has become so completely normalized that most people do not even consider it to be a problem, is that Muslims and African Americans both get a free pass for their anti-Jewish-hatred, and not just a regular free pass, but an unlimited free pass.  Louis Farrakhan and his Nation Of Islam organization have used that unlimited free pass to constantly propagandize against Jews, which has resulted in many millions of people believing that Jews are [or were] responsible for slavery, which is false.

Since the year 2000, thousands of Jews have fled from Europe, because of rapidly increasing anti-Semitism, including beatings and even killings.  Thousands more Jews are seriously considering fleeing Europe, for the same reasons.  This might not sound like a large number of people, but when you consider how few Jews live in Europe, it is a significant percentage of European Jews.

Even with thousands of Jews fleeing from Europe, because of anti-Jewish violence, the so-called Social Justice Warriors (SJWs) still have not granted Victim Status to Jews.

Even with Europeans Jews under attack from both European right-wing Nationalists and Muslim immigrants, the Social Justice Warriors and Leftists consider Jews to be unworthy of Victim Status.

In the 1990s, a Moroccan Jew told me that fled from France because he could not cope with the anti-Semitism there at that time, which was much-less-severe than the anti-Semitism that exists there now.  That Moroccan Jew was one of the biggest and strongest Jews I ever met, and he was also a Black Belt – yet even he was unable to cope with the anti-Semitism in France in the 1990s, which has become much worse since then.

“An incredible 90 percent of British Jews believe that the Labour Party is anti-Semitic, and 40 percent are considering leaving the United Kingdom because of the spike in anti-Semitism.”
SOURCE: www.jns.org/poll-40-of-british-jews-considering-leaving-uk-%e2%80%8eover-anti-semitism/
 
BOTTOM LINE: Even with 40% of British Jews considering leaving the United Kingdom because of anti-Semitism, Jews still do not receive Victim Status.

In year 2016, the FBI reported that 54% of religion-motivated Hate Crimes were anti-Jewish, even though less than 2% of Americans were Jews,
SOURCE: www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/statistics-on-religious-hate-crimes

BOTTOM LINE: Even with Jews being victimized by Hate Crimes far beyond their percentage of the total American population, Jews still do not receive Victim Status.

If the Political Correctness people and Social Justice Warriors really believed in Social Justice, then they would grant Victim Status to Jews, because Jews are the most-persecuted people in World History. To deny that Jews are worthy of Victim Status indicates that the Political Correctness people and SJWs have a problem with Jews.

Deadly Antisemitism in the USA, Pittsburgh Prayers


11 killed in Pennsylvania synagogue shooting

8 killed in Pennsylvania synagogue shooting

SHOOTING AT PITTSBURGH SYNAGOGUE KILLS EIGHT

At least four reported dead, 12 injured in shooting at Pittsburgh synagogue

Pray for the injured Jews and police.

The United States isn't immune from antisemitism and certainly not from violence. Jews who think they are safe are sadly mistaken.

My husband and I made aliyah as a newlywed couple almost half a century ago. It was the smartest thing we ever did.

Today's numbers show that the largest Jewish community is here in Israel. Between immigration, diaspora assimilation and the fact that Israel has the highest birth rate of any developed country in the world, our Jewish population is growing quickly.

In 1970, when we boarded that large ship to Israel, we entered a country that had a much lower standard of living than the one we had left. And even three years after the legendary, miraculous Six Days War victory, the future of the young country was still uncertain.

I always felt secure here in Israel and had no real worries about the physical security of American Jewry. Things have changed. Now Israel has advanced in every way, and the United States is in trouble.

Israel is the Home for all Jews. Join us.

GUEST POST: Forgotten Anti-Jewish Remark

Forgotten Anti-Jewish Remark
(a guest post by Mr. Cohen)

In the early 1980s [or maybe it was the late 1970s],
Reggie Jackson was one of the greatest baseball players.

During a dispute about wages between Yankee
baseball players and Yankee owner George Steinbrenner,
Reggie Jackson (who just happened to be African-American) said:

“Blacks do all the work, Jews just own everything.”

Reggie Jackson received no punishment and no criticism
for this public statement, which was reported in the newspapers,
not even the smallest of the small.

In addition to being anti-Semitic, this statement was also foolish,
because Yankee owner George Steinbrenner was NOT Jewish
and had no Jewish ancestors.

Contrasting sharply with the total immunity granted to
Reggie Jackson, “Jimmy the Greek” was immediately
fired from his job as a sports commentator because
he said that African-Americans have superior athletic
abilities because of their history as slaves – which
was not an insult, but a compliment.

Reggie Jackson never retracted or apologized because
he had no need to, because Jews can be insulted
without consequences.  For “Jimmy the Greek”,
no retraction or apology would have ever been
sufficient to save him, because blacks can never
be insulted without consequences.

This is one of the unfair double-standards
that is promoted by Political Correctness:

Blacks can never be insulted without consequences,
because they have been granted Victim Status
by the rules of Political Correctness.

Jews can be insulted many times without consequences,
because they DO NOT HAVE Victim Status according
to the rules of Political Correctness.

The most frustrating aspect of Political Correctness
(for me) is that most Jews continue to promote it, 
even though it obviously discriminates against them. 
This is insanity.

Reggie Jackson’s anti-Jewish remark has been
completely forgotten, as if it never existed. 
That explains why I feel compelled to publicize it.

Last but not least, the fact that Jews have not been
granted Victim Status is amazingly unjust, considering
how many times Jews have been persecuted.

Correcting a Historic Injustice- USA Recognizes Jerusalem as Israel's Capital


I can only credit antisemitism with the Historic Injustice of the refusal to recognize Jerusalem as Capital of the State of Israel by all the nations and mainstream international bodies.

Jewish History, which is delineated in the Bible, that same book that is used to "swear on" by western countries including the United States of America, began in the Holyland, here in the Middle East, and from the time of King David, about three thousand 3,000 years ago, Jerusalem has been the administrative and spiritual Capital City. That predates the very beginnings of both Christianity and Islam by more than a millennium, 1,000 years.

That's why it was obvious to even early secular Zionists that they would make Jerusalem Capital City of the much dreamed of Jewish State.

Unlike the vast majority of the members of the United Nations, Israel wasn't an "invented" country. Check the history of most countries, most especially those in South America, the Middle East and Africa, and you will find that borders were drawn and the names made up by committees of politicians and bureaucrats. Native tribes speaking different languages and following different religious traditions were forced to become one political entity, when they had nothing in common. Tribes and tribal leaders were transferred from place to place, crowned and uncrowned, as maps were drawn without ever trying to take into account the people those borders would affect.

The so-called Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan is one of those totally invented countries. The Hashemites were imported to prevent the Zionists from being able to return to the eastern bank of the Jordan River, which was where the Biblical "cities of refuge" had been located.

Please don't forget that the world remained totally silent during the Nazi attempt to kill all the Jews in the world, starting with Europe.

There have always been Jews in the Land of Israel. The revolutionary aspect of Zionism was its aim to establish a modern state for Jews in the Holy Land. That was before Balfour and before the United Nations. The Balfour Declaration and the General Assembly vote November 29, 1947 were results of  Zionism. They were international recognition of Jewish rights. But that didn't mean that any country would help us.

The Jewish People fought alone during Israel's War for Independence and again in subsequent wars.

I must say that the hardest war has been the diplomatic war against us, which continuously tries to delegitimize Jewish connections to the Land of Israel and our holy cities, especially Jerusalem.

The insidious invention of a so-called "Palestinian sic people" has been very effective. This fake entity has been gifted by the world, and even many Jews, with equal rights to Israel. This is a total outrage!

Even Trump's carefully written recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's Capital City doesn't go far enough to correct this historic and moral wrong. But it's a very important step in the right direction.

Thank you, Donald Trump!

Israel Must Banish The EU!

The United Nations isn't the only huge international body that promotes and instigates policies dedicated to the destruction and delegitimization of the State of Israel. The European Union is its very active "junior" partner. The European Union sends "delegations," NGOs, etc to Israel to activate, organize and train Arabs to undermine and terrorize Israels.

Claiming "human rights violations" they demand that Israel compensate Arabs who break the law, and then they deny Jews the same "human rights."
EU demands Israel pay for demolishing illegal buildings
European Union demands Israel compensate it for demolishing illegal Arab buildings in Area C.
Are we Jews not "human?"

The European Union has also been promoting/inventing a new "people" called Europeans to which they include Great Britain. The EU also considers the history-less so-called Palestinians to be a legitimate "people" deserving of land and a state, but denies Jews the same, even though we are possibly the oldest People/Nation/Religion in the world today.

We Jews have a documented history connected to this part of the world, which is reinforced by archeologists and our religion. But rampant international anti-semitism, meaning anti-Jew, blinds others to our history and human rights.

It's time to banish all of the NGOs and EU offices here. Their representatives should be declared persona non grata.

Findings in Shiloh Hakeduma, Tel Shiloh, reinforce and prove the Biblical narrative and Jewish connections over the millennia to The Land of Israel.

GUEST POST: Kiddush HaShem 1498

Kiddush HaShem Year 1498 CE
(a guest post by Mr. Cohen)

“In [year] 1498 [CE], at the height of the [Spanish] Inquisition,
the Portuguese king had ordered all Jews who refused to convert
to gather in Lisbon, and from there to be sent into exile by ship.
It was a mean, cruel trick. 

About 20,000 hopeful Jews gathered at the quay waiting for
the promised ships, which never arrived. Eventually, they were
herded into tight quarters intended for 5,000 people and starved
there for several days. 

The half-starving families, including the elderly and small children,
were repeatedly tempted with offers to convert, with the promise
of a life of luxury and ease [if they would convert to Christianity].

To their eternal credit, no one accepted the offer.
