[ April 20, 2024 ]
Anyone keeping abreast of the ongoing global jihad carnage—from Somalia to Stockholm— would not be surprised that “white supremacist” killings remain a marginal epiphenomenon. The most recent U.S. Department of State (USDOS) “Country Reports on Terrorism”, published September 2018, illustrates this truth, as summarized by City Journal’s Seth Barron:
…[A]lmost all the world’s extremist violence is concentrated in a handful of regions, where very few white people live…[T]he record indicates that of the nearly 20,000 people killed in thousands of extremist killings in 2017, white supremacists were responsible for very few
Blithely ignoring the worldwide context, which includes the intimate connection between jihadism, and Islamic Jew-hatred, Tuesday, April 9th, the House Judiciary Committee held a hearing entitled, “Hate Crimes and the Rise of White Nationalism.” Much to the chagrin of the majority Democrats who organized the hearing, one witness, Zionist Organization of America President Morton Klein, refused to abide their willful blindness. Mr. Klein emphasized the disproportionate occurrence of hate crimes against Jews in America—a consistent phenomenon for over two decades based upon hard FBI data (1996–2017). Indeed, despite the Committee’s hand-wringing about “Islamophobia”—notwithstanding 53 jihadist attacks which have caused 158 deaths in the U.S., since the cataclysmic 9/11/2001 jihad carnage, and zero, remotely comparable depredations by Jews—hate crime rates targeting Jews, between 2015 and 2017, remained 2.2 to 3.1-fold higher, relative to the rates of hate crimes against Muslims. Mr. Klein’s greatest “offense,” however, was to expose the moral perversity of focusing on “Islamophobia,” or worse still equating it with Antisemitism, when Jews are being subjected to a global pandemic of Muslim Jew-hatred, which includes the attitudes of U.S. Muslims.

Klein’s evidence-based presentation featured, appositely, unique data compiled by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). Between 2014 and 2017, the ADL conducted global and regional surveys which captured the prevalence of those who agreed with six or more of eleven Antisemitic stereotypes, i.e., an index of extreme Antisemitism. The results demonstrated a remarkable, if depressing uniformity: there is a 2 to 4.5-fold excess of Muslim Jew-hatred, relative to any other major religious affiliation, or atheism/agnosticism, and this association with Islam persists amongst the Muslim diaspora populations in Western Europe, and the U.S. Specific findings, included:
—The world’s 16 most Antisemitic countries are all in the Muslim Middle East, where 75% to 93% exhibit extreme Antisemitism—Judea-Samaria/Gaza 93%; Iraq 92%; Yemen 88%; Algeria 87%; Libya 87%; Tunisia 86%; Kuwait 82%; Bahrain 81%; Jordan 81%; Morocco 80%; Qatar 80%; United Arab Emirates 80%; Lebanon 78%; Oman 76%; Egypt 75%; Saudi Arabia 75%
—The prevalence of extreme Antisemitism in Western Europe—Belgium, 68% of Muslims vs. 21% of the general population; Spain, 62% of Muslims vs. 29% of the general population; Germany, 56% of Muslims vs. 16% of the general population; Italy, 56% of Muslims vs. 29% of the general population; United Kingdom, 54% of Muslims vs. 12% of the general population; France, 49% of Muslims vs. 17% of the general population
—The prevalence of extreme Antisemitism in the U.S., 34% of Muslims vs. 14% of the general population
—The prevalence of extreme Antisemitism, globally, by religious affiliation—Muslim, 49%; Christian, 24%; No religion, 21%; Hindu, 19%; Buddhist, 17%
Mort Klein further shattered an even more profound taboo: he made plain how Antisemitic themes from canonical Islam—the Koran, and the traditions of Islam’s prophet Muhammad (the “hadith”)—as preached, most importantly, by Sunni Islam’s Vatican, Al-Azhar University, and its Grand Imam Papal equivalents, were responsible for inculcating these Jew-hating attitudes in the global Muslim masses. The late Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Muhammad Sayyid Tantawi (d. 2010), was singled out by Klein—appropriately. Tantawi was one of the most revered modern authorities on Koranic exegesis, or “tafsir,” having edited a massive 15-volume modern Koranic commentary, and helped create the largest online website of such analyses. He also authored what can be aptly described as modern Islam’s Koranic Kampf on the Jews, entitled “Banū Isrāʼīl fī al-Qurʼān wa-al-Sunnah,” or “Jews in The Koran and The Traditions”. Tantawi’s magnum opus, a 766 page Muslim academic religious treatise, includes this summary Koranic rationalization for Muslim Jew-hatred:
[The] Koran describes the Jews with their own particular degenerate characteristics, i.e. killing the prophets of Allah [see Koran 2:61/ 3:112 ], corrupting His words by putting them in the wrong places, consuming the people’s wealth frivolously [4:161], refusal to distance themselves from the evil they do [3:120; 5:79], and other ugly characteristics caused by their deep-rooted (lascivious) envy [2:109]…only a minority of the Jews keep their word…[A]ll Jews are not the same. The good ones become Muslims [Koran 3:113], the bad ones do not.
More ominously, as Klein noted in his opening statement, Tantawi’s exhaustive modern analysis of Islam’s defining, canonical sources concluded by sanctioning bigoted—even violent—Muslim behaviors towards Jews.
[T]he Jews always remain maleficent deniers….they should desist from their negative denial…some Jews went way overboard in their denying hostility, so gentle persuasion can do no good with them, so use force with them and treat them in the way you see as effective in ridding them of their evil. One may go so far as to ban their religion, their persons, their wealth, and their villages.
As Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Tantawi’s public statements on “dialogue” (January 1998) with Jews, the Jews as “enemies of Allah, descendants of apes and pigs” (April 2002; from Koran 5:60), and the legitimacy of homicide bombing of Jews (April 2002), made his personal Muslim Jew-hatred eminently clear. Tantawi’s comments on dialogue, which were issued shortly after he met with Israel’s Chief Rabbi, Israel Meir Lau, in Cairo, on December 15, 1997, re-affirmed his ongoing commitment to the views expressed in “Jews in The Koran and The Traditions”.
Tantawi’s successor, current Al-Azhar Grand Imam Ahmed al-Tayeb, whom Klein also alluded to, shares Tantawi’s Jew-hating virulence. Al-Tayeb has dubbed the Jews eternal Koranic enemies (per Koran 5:82), blamed Jews for the rise of ISIS and other jihadist groups, and claims “the issue of Antisemitism is a lie.”
Kudos to Mort Klein for courageously shattering the prevailing, enforced silence of our national political class regarding the global pandemic of Muslim Jew-hatred, rooted in mainstream Islam. It remains an open question whether being informed will prompt these timorous souls to overcome their “Islamophobia phobia,” and forthrightly acknowledge and confront this ugly problem.

They don’t care.
The U.N. doesn’t care and many western countries endorse it as their countries fill up with Muslims.

The U.N. acts as a proxy for Muslim countries and the globalists.

Thank you Andrew Bostom for your very elaborate contribution. It shows
that not all absent GR “commentators” have a doctorate. (Many can just
make a sentence with a maximum of five letters to write their daily SMS.)
Don’t be sad that none of them is expressing themselves. Recognize this
rather as a glory leaf that they aren’t up to your level and therefore prefer
to react in their usual way to easily understandable images and headlines.

The interesting thing about your contribution is that it’s worthy of a second look.
Larded with sources, a treasure trove, a quarry of information. Today nobody
wants to dig any more, but to get the burger stuffed directly into their mouths.

But you can be sure of one thing: Our enemies will read such con-
tributions all the more carefully. They aren’t interested in “upvoters”
of infantile redundant cartoon pics, but in “dangerous information”…

I’m a great fan of complexity. I love labyrinths from which I
have to find a way out (the Jewish principle). But at this
(unfortunately extremely low) level of intellectual knowled-
ge I recommend the old KISS principle. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle

Mouslems SUFFER from many phobias as predicted in the Bible in Genesis Because of these phobias he will not be able to get along with the rest of mankind.
They suffer from:
Jewnophobia,
Christianophobia
Jesusnophobia
Americanophobia
Westernnophobia
Whitenophobia
Femalenophobia
Lawnophobia
Biblenophobia
Israelnophobia,
homonophobia,
Negronophobia, etc.
As you can see the list is quite extensive. They do like sheep, goats, and donkeys, however..

The Left’s fixation on so-called “white nationalism” is basically for one purpose only: To criminalize any and all opposition to their radical socialist, openly racialist, militantly open-borders agenda. It was noted that several race-baiters including but not limited to Van Jones are chiefly responsible for this anti-white witch-hunt – which this clearly is.
If anybody or anything is responsible for the so-called “rise” of so-called “white nationalism,” it is the Democrats themselves, with their constant open contempt for whites, their condoning of open anti-Semites such as Ilhan Omar (D-Al Qaeda/ISIS) and Rashida Tlaib (D-HAMAS) and of race baiters like Al Sharpton and Louis Farrakhan, and their coddling of and making excuses for the violent thuggery of the likes of Antifa and Black Lives Matter (and refusal to condemn any of those groups or others like La Raza and the New Black Panthers). The Nadlers of the world keep harping on Charlottesville, but it was ANTIFA that provoked that whole hubbub by their open intention to topple historical statues and monuments in that town.

They somehow think this isn’t connected to Christianity because leftists conveniently forget that Jesus is a Jew.

I believe Candace Owens also ripped this “committee” a new one calling out their obvious blindness to where the hatred and violence is really coming from, and it isn’t the whites!!! She also pointed out that “nationalist” is NOT a bad word, although the libs are trying to redefine it.

I listened to her when she spoke true words of wisdom to the “committee”. I APPLAUD her for her EXCELLENT speech. I love how she CORRECTED the “chairman” when he emphatically said Ms. Owens called the Senators STUPID. As I listened, I was calling the “chairman” STUPID IDIOT COMMUNIST that wants to destroy America.
