Anti-Zionism
Anti Semitics and their claptrap are not going to motivate the average non Jew to any action. Nor will it inspire any fear in him of Jews. However, when the claptrap has reached the level of “Anti-Zionism” then the needle is clearly in the danger zone. The dislike for an ethnic people is something host countries and neighboring countries can tolerate. But when it is then proposed and seriously believed that this ethnic people (in this case, Jews) are engaged in a conspiracy, and that this conspiracy will directly affect the way others live and want to live, then there is trouble. Motivation for action has now been give to even the basic citizen . . .and worse, the motivation to simply turn the other way when pogroms and violence begin is given to the rest of the citizenry. The purpose of such pogroms is, of course, in this view, to protect one’s way of life and their children’s futures by rooting out the conspirators.
It is perhaps a tribute to the stupidity both in America and in some American Jews that the rise of “anti-Zionism” is being greeted as a moderate point of view that entails no dangerous bigotry. It is actually a reflection that the needle is quickly rising in the red danger zone. With “Anti-Zionism” there may be no overt “racism” and its slogans, but the underbelly of Anti-Zionism is both the primitive fear there is conspiracy amongst the Jews to dominate and the desire to control and subvert. Why should any people believing there is such a distrustful group not get irate and demand action to be taken against them?
Hitler’s great motivation was largely not racial— it was Anti-Zionism. What is comes down to is that Semitism is 1 Jew trying to survive, and Zionism is 2 Jews trying to survive and do business. Hitler’s great motivating speeches were aimed at motivating people to believe in and act upon the idea of wiping out the Zionist conspiracy that was choking Germany. It was not that they had a different ethnic people amongst them— it was that they had a powerful and conspiratorial people amongst them with an agenda. This is what motivated the masses to either partake in or condone the massive anti-Semitic pogroms.
Just like in the 1930s, Jewry does not wish to notice the danger zone has been reached again. Get off the racial shtick. The danger has always been Anti-Zionism. Recognize what is happening. It just won’t go away on its own. A lot has to come together to inspire an outbreak. But those things are certainly coming together in the world, including a press that merely follows stories by fad. Jews were once the oppressed and got good coverage. Now, though now in Israel they remain a minority and are fighting against constant terrorist attacks, it is fashionable to paint them as oppressors and the Palestinians as the underdog. Radio hosts are coming forward asserting they are not anti-Semites but “anti-Zionists”— against the great Jewish oppression of others. We live in a society in which people are hardly erudite anymore, and there are millions who believe whatever angle is used on TV and radio. All it takes is a few well-placed narrow minded bigots, and millions will believe the nonsense of a “Zionist conspiracy.” When millions believe, thousands will put it into action. That’s all it takes: a few leaders, thousands that will follow, and millions that will turn their backs.
