This Is What Progressives Do Not Want You To See

Karam

Friday Sermon in Al-Bireh, West Bank

Palestinian Authority TV, January 6, 2012:

Oh, servants of Allah, every evil and catastrophe on the land of Palestine - moreover, in the whole world - is caused by the Jews.

They generate civil strife with their clandestine handiwork, their despicable texts, their bitter hearts, and their abominable intentions.

Allah said: "Whenever they kindle the fire of war, Allah extinguishes it, but they strive to do mischief on the earth, Allah loves not those who do mischief."

This is the history of the Jews.

Many a covenant have they violated. Many a prophet have they slayed.

Rabbis do not stand up before Jewish congregations and say anything like this about any other people on earth, yet this kind of violently anti-Semitic incitement is rife in the Muslim world.

Moreover, if I dare to point this out, progressives will call me a racist.

How's that for chutzpah?

It is the contention of this blog that the progressive-left has betrayed the Jewish people.

When the left refuses to face the screeching hate that comes from the Arab world and insists that anyone who does so is a "racist" or a "warmonger" then you just know that they have capitulated to the Radical Jihad.

When the president of the United States compares the Islamist Winter to the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s, then you know that the progressive movement is laboring under the most hobbling of delusions.

It surely is puzzling that so many progressives love to dismiss MEMRI and PMW more than PA or Hamas or other state television, irrespective of what is actually said.

There seems no greater fear for these folks than being labeled a bigot, even if the allegation is slanderous and for the sole purpose of censorship.

Yup.

How can any political movement be respected if it continues to ignore that which is both relevant and obvious?

I guess it says something about the power of ideology and group-think.

Barack Obama on the so-called "Arab Spring" (May 19, 2011):

"There are times in the course of history when the actions of ordinary citizens spark movements for change because they speak to a longing for freedom that has been building up for years. In America, think of the defiance of those patriots in Boston who refused to pay taxes to a King, or the dignity of Rosa Parks as she sat courageously in her seat."

The "Arab Spring" was the brutal rise of political Islam in the Middle East and this is what Obama compares the Civil Rights Movement to?

How's that for a kick in the head to Martin Luther King, Jr.?

The Fundamental Argument:

The progressive movement, and the activist base of the Democratic Party, creates and supports venues that demonize and defame the Jewish state, thereby also creating hatred toward the Jewish people.

Such venues include political journals, such as, but not limited to, Daily Kos, the Huffington Post, and the UK Guardian, numerous universities throughout the United States and Europe, various NGOs with an anti-Israel agenda, and the entire progressive-left movement to boycott, divest from, and sanction (BDS) the Jewish people of the state of Israel.

These venues and organizations do not generally criticize Israel, but dehumanize that country.

For this reason, among others, the progressive movement, and the activist base of the Democratic Party, undermines the well-being and safety of Jews around the world, sometimes resulting in violence toward us.

Therefore, as a matter of common sense and basic human decency, Jews should leave the progressive movement and the Democratic Party as we seek to build alternative political structures that are not home to toxic anti-Semitic anti-Zionists, who would see us robbed of self-determination and self-defense.

What You Can't Discuss:

This is a partial list of taboo topics within progressive-left venues around the Arab-Israel conflict. You cannot discuss this material because it undermines the "Palestinian narrative" of perpetual victimhood. This narrative is a club used by the Arab and Muslim enemies of Israel, along with their western progressive allies, to delegitimize that country in preparation for its eventual dissolution.

1) The centuries of Jewish dhimmitude under the boot of Islamic imperialism.

2) The recent construction of Palestinian identity, its connection to Soviet Cold War politics, and how this is an Arab people with a Roman name that refers to Greeks.

3) Arab and Palestinian Koranically-based racism as the fundamental source of the conflict.

4) The ways in which contemporary progressive anti-Zionism serves as a cloak for gross anti-Semitism.

5) The Palestinian theft and appropriation of Jewish history.

6) "Pallywood."

7) The historical connections between the Nazis, the Muslim Brotherhood, and the Palestinian national movement.

8) The perpetual refusal of the Palestinian-Arabs to accept a state for themselves in peace next to the Jewish one.

9) The progressive portrayal of terrorists as those fighting a righteous war of "resistance."

10) The Arab-Palestinian indoctrination of children with Jew hatred.

11) Human rights violations against women, children, and Gay people in the Muslim Middle East.

12) The fact that violent Jihadis call themselves "Jihadis" and claim to love death above life.

This is only a partial list, so please let us know the many more that we are missing.
