02/03/12(Fri)17:59 No.1469868>Anti-Semitism
is no longer a problem, fortunately. It’s raised, but it’s raised
because privileged people want to make sure they have total control, not
just 98% control. That’s why anti-Semitism is becoming an issue. Not
because of the threat of anti-Semitism; they want to make sure there’s
no critical look at the policies the US (and they themselves) support in
the Middle East. With regard to anti-Semitism, the distinguished
Israeli statesman Abba Eban pointed out the main task of Israeli
propaganda (they would call it exclamation, what’s called ‘propaganda’
when others do it) is to make it clear to the world there’s no
difference between anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism. By anti-Zionism he
meant criticisms of the current policies of the State of Israel. So
there’s no difference between criticism of policies of the State of
Israel and anti-Semitism, because if he can establish ‘that’ then he can
undercut all criticism by invoking the Nazis and that will silence
people. We should bear it in mind when there’s talk in the US about
anti-Semitism.
