Palestinian TV: Jews harmed Europe because of their “great love of money”

Thursday, October 28th, 2010

The Palestinian Authority (PA) — a corrupt, bigoted entity which Israel is being pressured to accept as a “peace partner” — continues to use its TV broadcasts to deny Israel’s right to exist and rewrite Jewish history:

… a PA TV history program … explained that the Jews’ behavior had been “harmful” to Europeans because of the Jews’ “great love of money.” They cited Shakespeare’s fictitious character, the moneylender Shylock, as proof of this “harmful” Jewish trait. …

As Palestinian Media Watch has reported, the idea that Jews were a threat to every nation in which they lived, and therefore had to be expelled, is an essential concept in the Palestinian Authority’s denial of the Jewish connection to Israel, and the denial of Israel’s right to exist. …

Islamists Accuse Egypt’s Christians of Behaving Like…Islamists?

Thursday, October 28th, 2010

by Raymond Ibrahim*

The persecution of Egypt’s Coptic minority is taking an ironic, and dangerous, turn: Islamist leaders are now projecting the worst traits of radical Islam onto Egypt’s Christians. A psychological phenomenon first described by Sigmund Freud, “projection” is defined as “the attribution of one’s own ideas, feelings, or attitudes to other people.” As such, consider how the following excerpt from this recent report is a perfect example of projection:

In the last month various fundamentalist groups held ten demonstrations [in Egypt], each after coming out of mosques following Friday prayers, against the 86-year-old ailing Coptic Pontiff, in which he was accused of being a US agent, an abductor and torturer of female Muslim converts from Christianity, of stockpiling weapons in monasteries and churches to carry out war against Muslims, and of plans to divide Egypt to create a Coptic State.

NPR CEO stoops to calling Juan Williams names; NPR was gunning for Juan for a long time

Friday, October 22nd, 2010

By Andrew L. Jaffee

National Public Radio’s (NPR) firing of Juan Williams had less to do with his (benign) remarks about Muslims on airliners, but more about finding a pretext to dump him. Just yesterday, NPR CEO Vivian Schiller stooped to name-calling against Williams, stating, “that whatever feelings Williams has about Muslims should be between him and ‘his psychiatrist or his publicist — take your pick’.” This belies the deep resentment NPR held against Williams for his “controversial” views. Many at NPR probably considered Williams an “Uncle Tom,” just as the same left-wing epithets were tossed at great minds like Condi Rice and Colin Powell. Williams’ Muslim remarks were just a pretext for NPR to do what it’s wanted to do for a long time: Fire Williams and derive perverse pleasure from it. Here’s Williams being “controversial,” speaking the truth, caring for his own community with passion, and encouraging self-responsibility:

Egypt Cuts a Deal: Christians Fed to Muslim ‘Lions’

Tuesday, October 19th, 2010

by Raymond Ibrahim*

For centuries, the Copts — Egypt’s Christian, indigenous inhabitants — have been subject to persecution, discrimination, humiliation, and over all subjugation in their homeland (etymologically, “Copt” simply means “Egyptian”). In the medieval era, such treatment was a standard aspect of sharia’s dhimmi codes, first ratified under Caliph Omar in the 7th century and based on Koran 9:29. Conversely, during the colonial era and into the mid 20th century, as Egypt experimented with westernization and nationalism, religious discrimination was markedly subdued. Today, however, as Egypt all but spearheads the Islamist movement — giving the world Sayyid Qutb, the Muslim Brotherhood, and Aymen Zawahiri in the process — that is, as Egypt reverts to its medieval character, the Copts find themselves again in a period of severe persecution.

Stanford Hosts a Hate Talk

Monday, October 18th, 2010

by Jonathan Gelbart*

UC Berkeley history professor Beshara Doumani came to Stanford University on September 29, 2010, to give a lecture sponsored by the Abbasi Program in Islamic Studies titled, “The Iron Law and Ironies of Palestinian History.” He was introduced by notorious Stanford University history professor Joel Beinin, who managed to insert his repeated, and unfounded, claim that academic freedom in the post-9/11 era is “very much still in jeopardy.” Beinin, quoting from Doumani’s faculty bio, noted that he specializes in “recovering the history of social groups, places and time periods that have been silenced or erased by conventional scholarship on the modern Middle East.” This seemingly innocuous description belied a very specific, partisan subtext.

CNN’s Anti-Semitic Host Rick Sanchez: No Media Bias?

Sunday, October 3rd, 2010

By Andrew L. Jaffee

So all the talk about media bias is just nonsense? Take Oliver “The Jewish domination of the media” Stone or Mel “f*cking Jews” Gibson. CNN actually just — what a pleasant surprise — fired TV anchor Rick Sanchez:

… Sanchez called out Comedy Central host Jon Stewart as a “bigot” for mocking him, and complained that Jews — like Stewart — don’t face discrimination. He also suggested that CNN, and perhaps the media industry more broadly, is run by Jews and elitists who look down on Hispanics like himself. …

Clearly, those comments didn’t sit well with the network, which put out a terse statement around 6 p.m. Friday.

“Rick Sanchez is no longer with the company,” the CNN statement read. …

Now, of course, you’ll have idiots saying that Sanchez was fired because Jews DO “dominate the media.” Ahhhhh… nnnnnooooooooooo…

Palestinian TV labels Jews “sin and filth”

Tuesday, September 14th, 2010

Palestinian Media Watch has documented an official Palestinian Authority (terrorist group) TV narrator stating, “They [Israelis] know for certain that our [Palestinian] roots are deeper than their false history. We, from the balcony of our home, look out over [Islamic] holiness and on sin and filth [Jews praying at the Western Wall].” ([PA TV (Fatah), Sept. 10, 2010]). Watch for yourself:

Why doesn’t anyone care that TIME Magazine is a third-rate trashy rag?

Wednesday, September 8th, 2010

By Andrew L. Jaffee

TIME Magazine recently wrote a generally news-like article called, “A Defiant France Steps Up Deportation of Roma.” But the magazine didn’t do a cover story on this subject — France’s ethnic cleansing of almost 9000 Gypsies (”Roma”) from its soil this year alone. TIME had no qualms about smearing Israel with age-old, anti-Semitic canards in a front-page article. And are the “progressives” at UC Irvine, Berkley, Cambridge, and Concordia going to get “outraged,” throw public tantrums, and label France an “apartheid” state, as they do so flippantly and erroneously at/to Israel? First, what TIME wrote about Israel; then, what France is doing.

Was TIME’s Karl Vick, author of its recent “Why Israel Doesn’t Care About Peace” article:

Is Time a Muslim Magazine?

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010

by Phyllis Chesler

I did not think that the pro-Muslim/pro-Islamist and anti-Western propaganda could get any worse — and yet it just has.

TIME magazine has an August 30 cover story titled “Is America Islamophobic?” Within, the article is titled: “Islam in America: It’s part of the fabric of life, but protests reveal a growing hostility to the religion of Muslims.”

Leftwing Nazi Bigots Explained

Saturday, July 31st, 2010

Michael Lumish explains the current, leftwing double-think/double-speak of people who claim to be “progressives,” “tolerant,” and “raging against the machine” while being rank bigots — anti-Semites:

… They are, for the most part, leftists who claim to hate war, favor environmental regulation, women’s rights, gay rights, and the entire hodge-podge of issues, including an anti-racist agenda, that makes up what we call the “progressive movement.”

And, yet, on the foremost website devoted to electing Democrats, with over 250,000 registered users, they allow a malicious and vocal minority to drive the Israel-Palestine discussion in such a way as to create hatred, and thus violence, toward Jews. As if that’s not bad enough in itself, they also do so in a manner that echoes anti-Jewish Nazi propaganda from the 1930s. Again, my criticism of Daily Kos is not that they’re a bunch of anti-Semites, but that they provide a venue for a bunch of anti-Semites.

These people represent the grassroots / netroots of the Democratic party, yet they comfortably share a “home” with people who are little more than modern day Nazis. …

Holocaust Hero Jan Karski Remembered in New York

Monday, July 26th, 2010

By Fern Sidman

“For us Poles, it was war and occupation. For the Jews, it was the end of the world,” declared the legendary Polish hero of the Holocaust, Jan Karski, as he spoke of the ravages of World War II and the Nazi invasion of Poland. Marking the 10th anniversary of his death, the Kosciuszko Foundation on Manhattan’s upper east side was the venue for a most fitting tribute to Jan Karski; the man who is considered “a universal hero” for his role in attempting to wake up the free world to the heinous atrocities being perpetrated against the Jews during WWII.

Tens of Thousands Mark Israel’s 62nd Anniversary

Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

By Fern Sidman

Fashionable 5th Avenue in New York City morphed into a virtual sea of blue and white on Sunday afternoon, May 23rd, as thousands marched down the famed thoroughfare in a passionate display of support for the State of Israel on her 62nd birthday. The flag of Israel was a ubiquitous site, as marchers representing synagogues, schools, yeshivos and Jewish organizations from around the tri-state area held aloft this indefatigable symbol of Jewish statehood with pride while hoisting decorative banners and signs calling for a united Jerusalem. Scores of spectators from all over the country lined the parade route and joyfully cheered on the marchers as they raised their collective voices in tribute to the glorious legacy of Israel.

Reviving Jewish Race Science at Columbia U Conference

Sunday, May 23rd, 2010

by Brendan Goldman*

The population of Jews in the US is three percent … but [their 'genius'] leads to their controlling so much power that even presidents are scared [of them]. Whether [President Barack] Obama will be able to escape the notion that three percent of the country is so powerful that the top gentile in the land cannot criticize Israel is not clear.

The above statement was made not by a Hamas or KKK leader, but by Ali al-Amin Mazrui, director of the Institute of Global Cultural Studies at SUNY Binghamton. He was addressing the Ifriqiyya Colloquium Conference, held on the top floor of Columbia University’s International Affairs Building, on Thursday, May 6. Mazrui is a darling of the far left, appearing prominently in venues such as Democracy Now, as well as at Islamist forums like the Muslim Public Affairs Council.

An Open letter to European Jews Who Condemn Israel

Saturday, May 15th, 2010

by Rabbi Yaakov Spivak

My Dear Brothers and Sisters:

There is nothing more pitiful than a condemned man asking his executioner for the sword so that he may do his work for him.

As anti-Semitism rages once again in the blood-soaked lands which contain the ashes of your families, you have committed an act of potential suicide.

Three thousand of you, in a traitorous, backstabbing moment, have signed a petition condemning the State of Israel for its “actions” against the Palestinians.

An interview with Dr. Marvin Belsky of HRCARI (Human Rights Coalition Against Radical Islam)

By Fern Sidman

As the exponential growth of radical Islam continues to present an ever increasing danger to the future of Western civilization, there are those concerned individuals hailing from diverse backgrounds, nationalities and religions who are outraged by this pernicious threat and are determined to do something about it. The Human Rights Coalition Against Radical Islam is one such organization. Founded in May of 2009, the HRCARI has held numerous political demonstrations, rallies and seminars aimed at bringing about a collective awareness of the perils of Islamic extremism. I sat down with Dr. Marvin Belsky, one of the founders of HRCARI to hear more about the goals and objectives of this most important group.

FS: Can you tell us about the genesis of HRCARI?
