Many readers asked me (also as a US citizen) to comment in
this blog on what is going on in race relations in the USA. I will briefly say
that the politicians who criticize Trump (both republicans and democrats) are
hypocritical. These same politicians who criticize Trump and his racist minions
never challenged hate directed at Muslims and Arabs in general. The white
nationalists and supremacists who are calling for ethnic cleansing and for hate
are no different than the Zionists that they adore and fund and who do far more
violence and atrocities. The hypocrisy in the US is more blatant and sickening
than the thugs that caused the mayhem in Charlottesville. But what worries us
more is that the distractions can allow us to slide more into a nuclear world
war (please watch news related to Iran and North Korea).
There are also credible reports of Zionist thugs
infiltrating both camps (‘left’ and ‘right’) to entice violence. I remember how
Zionists tried to infiltrate one of our demonstrations in Connecticut posing as
neo-Nazis to incite violence and mayhem. And we all know now how FBI agents
infiltrated civil rights groups doing the same things in the 1960s. If US
citizens do not wake-up to where the real danger comes from (the elites
profiting from all of this), the society will be torn apart by petty hatreds
that only serve the policies of ‘divide and conquer’ that are being implemented
in Syria, Yemen, and Iraq. Arabs in those countries are waking up to that but
after much destruction. I hope fellow US citizens wake up to this early on.
The daughter of US ‘Ambassador’ to Israel (the “Jewish
State”) has moved here to Palestine as a new colonial settler. Like any Jew in
the world she and her father were considered nationals of the state even though
born in the US with no connection to this land other than religious [mythologies].
They can become citizens upon demand. Colonial Zionists call those new
colonists ‘olim’ referring to ‘those rising up’ as if being a Jew in Poland or America
is being in the gutters. For committed Zionists moving here it this is just a
formality because their betrayal of their own countries and allegiance to a foreign
power is their trademark. Just observe the rhetoric of those in the US who
support the billions of tax-payer money going to support the largest terrorist
organization in the world called the Israeli army. Watch their rhetoric on
Iran!
Friedman and his daughter supported and will continue to
support ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity and endless wars. The question for Jews around the world: until when will you allow Zionists to tar your community and your religion? When is the price of racism/‘Jewish nationalism’ considered too high? (today 7 million of us Palestinians are refugees or displaced people thanks to Zionists like Friedman and his daughter). The
questions for all US citizens: how will you challenge ALL racism and bigotry? What
will you do to work for justice, human rights, and equality? How would you
justify working against ‘white nationalism’ or ‘pan-Islamic nationalism’ (ISIS)
but not against ‘Jewish nationalism’?

brilliant article, thanks.
ReplyDeleteThis problem is what I consider conflation of un-American ideal by our politicians and press with the 'terrorism' by fanatics now under occupation of their own lands. Consider how we would view Americans if we were occupied for over 60 years by another power and some of us rose up in terror attacks on our occupiers. They may well be viewed a patriotic. The reality is that some people do respond that way whether they are Nazis, Jews, Muslims, Christians, or anything else. Conflation of neo-Nazi with the self-defense of those attacked is the problem. It is the problem with our conflation of so-called 'Islamic terrorists' with those who deny them their rights to their ancestral lands of over 2000 years. This is not a negotiable problem, but one of civilization dealing with a human misconception of conflicts. Some conflicts and the response are justified, and others not. We can recognize and defend ourselves and others with human rights and real politic.
