American Jewish Congress lobbies for Pakistan’s anti-Semitic, pro-Jihad PM

19

First it was J Street, the ADL, and the British Jewish leadership. Now it’s Jack Rosen of the American Jewish Congress. The Jewish people have been plagued by these anti-Jews since Moses went up Mount Sinai for the giving of the Torah to Israel and anti-Jews were below building a golden calf. These are not Jewish groups but anti-Jewish groups which, when they are not attacking Jews, are calling for a kristallnacht against the tiny Jewish state. If Rosen can support a vicious Jew-hater such as Imran Khan, he is implicitly joining him in wanting to alienate and cut Israel off from the rest of the world, and ultimately to destroy the Jewish state altogether.

“American Jewish group lobbies for Pakistan’s anti-Semitic, pro-Jihad PM,” by Yigal Carmon and Tufail Ahmad, MEMRI, via World Israel News, August 27, 2018 (thanks to Mark):

While the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations may not have the authority to impose policy, it needs at the very least to firmly distance itself from such rogue activity.

Imran Khan, the cricketer-turned-politician who is now Pakistan’s prime minister, is in a win-win situation. To his Pakistani audiences, Khan blames “the Jewish lobby,” the Jews, America, and Israel for the many ills that bedevil Pakistan. This earns him the sympathy and support of Pakistani voters. At the same time, a member of that “Jewish lobby” that Khan singles out for attack is actually going to bat for him and advocating for US support for Pakistan.

“The Jewish lobby” is a blanket term used by Pakistani politicians, including Khan, who do not distinguish between Jews and Israel. Over the past decade and more, leaders in Pakistan have blamed the Jews for foisting Valentine’s and April Fool’s Days on Muslims; have dubbed the UN a Jewish conspiracy; have accused Jews and Israel of targeting Pakistan’s nuclear weapons; have called Facebook – and polio vaccination campaigns – Jewish conspiracies, and so on. Khan’s narrative is not exceptional in Pakistan’s public discourse.
Khan’s anti-Semitism and pro-Jihad statements

In 2011, Khan, the leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) party, began holding political rallies. In 2012, he was asked by Pakistan’s Aaj TV to explain why media coverage of his political activities had declined. Khan responded by saying that the Jews control the global media:

“The problem is that our [party] is facing two governments: the central government… and the provincial government in Punjab. They have massive funds for advertising [in compliant newspapers and TV channels]… Advertisements play a big part, and because of this, a small minority, the Jewish lobby… controls the global media.”

In a Dawn News TV interview, he explained the USUS agenda in Pakistan: “There is a very big lobby in America, and it’s a very powerful lobby, and that’s basically the Israeli lobby. It wants the Pakistani nuclear program rolled back. When they use the word ‘secure,’ it basically means a rollback [of Pakistan’s nuclear program]… And that lobby is very powerful. The one which is trying to get an attack launched against Iran – that same lobby is after the nuclear program of Pakistan, and it is the Israeli lobby.”

These are not isolated remarks by Khan. In August 2017, he blamed the US strategy for Afghanistan, which President Trump unveiled in August 2017, on “the Jewish lobby.” According to a Pakistani media report, Khan “slammed the [Pakistani] government and its policy makers, asking where they were when the Jewish and Indian lobbyists were busy influencing the US government in Washington and devising that strategy [that is] primarily aimed at denuclearizing Pakistan.”

Khan has accused the US of waging war not on terrorism, but on Islam, and has advocated jihad:

“Jihad is a very simple thing. When I wage a war for my freedom, it is jihad. It’s a verse of the Koran; it’s straight [and] clear. [When] one fights for his freedom, it’s jihad. Those who are fighting in Afghanistan against foreign occupation, it’s jihad.”
AJCongress president defends Khan and Pakistan

Enter Jack Rosen, president of the American Jewish Congress (AJCongress), which is a member organization of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations. When Khan refers to “the Jewish lobby,” he means organizations such as these.

In late July 2018, Rosen published an article titled “Pakistan Deserves US Support,” and also circulated it via email. In the article, he stated: “Khan’s strong words against terrorism in the region align with US interests. Pakistan can be a valuable partner in the fight against terrorism and serves as a critical juncture in our efforts in Afghanistan.” Really? Khan has said the very opposite.

Rosen writes that Khan should receive more US funds. But Khan has said: “Say ‘no’ to [American] aid. We do not want this aid. It is destroying our country.”

He added: “[If Pakistan] is perceived to be a stooge of America – taking dollars to be a hired gun for the Americans – then all we are doing is fanning extremism, and this is a never-ending war which will destroy Pakistan.”

Rosen does not explain the basis for his convictions and fails to mention Pakistan’s role in helping the Taliban and in the killing of US soldiers in Afghanistan. He writes: “To say that Pakistan is not at the front lines of the fight against violent extremism is patently absurd… [There are] some in Washington who would deny Pakistan the tools it needs – in terms of military hardware, financial support, and political encouragement – to bring terrorists to heel.”…

when will these pro-jihadi rats be arrested ? Paki PM is now demanding UN shut down of free speech by forcing blasphemy laws. same laws that are used to harass , murder non-muslims in Pukistan !

And Sharia Police in Uk are not willing to protect those who speak truth about islam https://tinyurl.com/ya6j3phj

Instead go after those who expose the jihadi crimes and oppose their Left/Liberal supporters !

Money is doing the talking in the ongoing war of far-left Jews in America against the Jewish State of Israel.

True for anyone!

[10] For the LOVE of money is the root of all evil:
which while some coveted after,
they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

It is more than just money it is Tikkun Olam, which is very misguided. Be a Light To The World means being the best you that you can be to make a positive impact on the world, not to save the world from itself.

The far-left, consisting of both Jews and non-Jews, is anti-American and anti-Israel.

Still, it’s a fact, however unpleasant, that much of the left, and the far-left, is sponsored by, and supported by Jews.

In Europe, this tendency seems limited somewhat to elites; there are too many ordinary Jews being harassed by anti-Semites – In Holland, in France, in Sweden, to create the groundswell of leftist support that is so prevalent in American Jewry.

My point is that money, “repairing the world” and other slogans that have been used to describe this behavior are simplistic – and miss the mark.

Ms. Geller, maybe you can get through to them.
I’m just glad we can talk about it openly without being accused of being anti-Semitic. It is a problem.
Someone needs to straighten these Jewish people out. They are teaming up with their enemy.

The problem is most stories point at Jews as one people, and it is not that simple, like Pamela points out during the time of Moses, their were those that clearly had their own belief system, and were only there to try to sway the Jewish people away from them.

I had friends of the Family who proudly hang Israeli Flags, Chai symbols, Mezuzahs, and maps of Israel. Yet if you ask them their position on a 2 state solution, they are proponents of 1 state non Jewish Secular Israel. Couple years ago I got up and left in the middle of Passover dinner over the hypocrisy of them saying “Next Year in Jerusalem”. while all the conversation before the Cedar were about how great Linda Sarsour is, and Bernie and/or Hillary are the saving grace of the Democratic Party and Israel. Needless to say I have not been invited back to any more dinners, weddings, birthdays…….

If more people would post honest stories based on truth instead of Antisemitic tropes of an evil Jewish cabal seeking the takeover of America, I think a lot more Jewish people would be sympathetic and supportive.

These “friends of the family” you cite are simply political and ethical idiots.

George Orwell put his finger on it: ““Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them.”

– Or people who fancy themselves intellectuals.

it is liberals in general, you see it across races, ethnicities, religions. the common thread is buying into Bernie Sanders brand of liberalism. Look at all the wonderful Democratic Socialists running and winning elections.

The term “liberal” when used to describe these leftist/statists is a complete misnomer.

Not when they proudly own the term Liberal, Democrat, and Socialist in the same breath, it is a disease that has spread to even more old school liberals. Bernie moved Liberalism hard left, he has normalized people like Linda Sarsour. and BLM as part of the liberal democratic party.

Hitler had his Jewish collaborators as well….and he made a pact with Islam that he would not wipe them out if they helped him wipe out all non-aryans on the planet….
It’s true. History does repeat itself….for all those who don’t learn from history…..

The problem comes from learning history and thinking you can do a better job doing the same exact thing.

If Moses is looking down from heaven at the Dhimmi Jews he’s probably starting to wonder why he lead then out Egypt….since they are knowingly and willingly volunteering for the next genocide of Jews…it’s sort of like a group asking Hannibal Lecter to dinner…..

Wow, so they not only support Palestine and maybe Iran, but also Pakistan as well? Sigh, they are a disgrace to the Jewish culture and heritage.
