In 2018—yes, 2018—Israel passed “Jewish-only ‘national self-determination’” law
…by Jonas E. Alexis
The Jewish News Syndicate has recently put out an article entitled, “600 Jewish groups sign full-page ad supporting Black Lives Matter.” It states: “We speak with one voice when we say, unequivocally: Black Lives Matter.”[1]
Who would disagree with that? Who says that black lives don’t matter? Once again, what about other lives? Do they actually matter? And why do the cults and the people who support this movement never come to terms with the fact that the ALL LIVES MATTER? Why do the cults and the people who promote this movement never look at the fundamental issues? Why are they so scared of pursuing the truth and embracing it to the end? Why are they so scared of statistics showing how black lives don’t really matter in places like the South Side of Chicago?
The Jewish News Syndicate, quoting a statement by the cultish groups which support BLM, declared: “When black movements are undermined, it leads to more violence against black people, including black Jews.” Once again, why does this equation only work for one particular group—or one particular movement? Isn’t that inherently racist? And why does that equation only work in certain locations? Why can’t that equation work perfectly well in Israel, where black Jews are being treated like animals?
Listen to this. In 2018—yes, 2018—Israel passed “Jewish-only ‘national self-determination’” law![2] Let us stop and think for a moment. Can you imagine the reaction if some neo-Nazi group happens to start a similar law in America? Wouldn’t Jewish organizations (from the ADL to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency) start screaming and kicking and gyrating all over the media?
Yet racist laws and policies have become routine in Israel and no serious Jewish organization has said a damn thing about it. Migrant workers for example have ended up working “at 25% below the minimum wage, without medical or social benefits, and without any work permit whatsoever.”[3]
But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Racism is also ingrained in Israeli schools as well. Listen to a tenth grader:
“For me, personally, Arabs are something I can’t look at and can’t stand, I am tremendously racist. I come from a racist home. If I get the chance in the army to shoot one of them, I won’t think twice. I’m ready to kill someone with my hands, and it’s an Arab.
“In my education I learned that…their education is to be terrorists, and there is no belief in them. I live in an area of Arabs, and every day I see these Ishmaelites, who pass by the [bus] station and whistle. I wish them death.”[4]
You may think that this is a disgruntled and deranged high school kid, and her abiding hatred toward the Palestinians does not represent a significant number of schools in Israel. But you would be wrong. In an article entitled “Israeli Teens Gripped by Virulent Racism,” the Jewish Daily Forward reported in 2014:
“The student’s comments appear in a chapter devoted to ethnicity and racism among youth from a forthcoming book, ‘Scenes from School Life’ (in Hebrew) by Idan Yaron and Yoram Harpaz.
“The book is based on anthropological observations made by Dr. Yaron, a sociologist, over the course of three years in a six-year, secular high school in the Israeli heartland – ‘the most average school we could find,’ says Harpaz, a professor of education.
“The book is nothing short of a page-turner, especially now, following the overt displays of racism and hatred of the Other that have been revealed in the country in the past month or so. Maybe ‘revealed’ isn’t the right word, as it suggests surprise at the intensity of the phenomenon.
“But Yaron’s descriptions of what he saw at the school show that such hatred is a basic everyday element among youth, and a key component of their identity. Yaron portrays the hatred without rose-colored glasses or any attempt to present it as a sign of social ‘unity.’ What he observed is unfiltered hatred.
“One conclusion that arises from the text is how little the education system is able – or wants – to deal with the racism problem.
“Not all educators are indifferent or ineffective. There are, of course, teachers and others in the realm of education who adopt a different approach, who dare to try and take on the system. But they are a minority. The system’s internal logic operates differently.
“Much of the chapter on racism revolves around the Bible lessons in a ninth-grade class, whose theme was revenge. ‘The class starts, and the students’ suggestions of examples of revenge are written on the blackboard,’ the teacher told Yaron. A student named Yoav ‘insists that revenge is an important emotion.
“He utilizes the material being studied to hammer home his semi-covert message: ‘all the Arabs should be killed. The class goes into an uproar. Five students agree with Yoav and say openly: the Arabs should be killed.’
“One student relates that he heard in the synagogue on Shabbat that ‘Aravim Zeh Erev Rav’ [‘Arabs are rabble,’ in a play on words], and also Amalek, and there is a commandment to kill them all,’ a reference to the prototypical biblical enemy of the children of Israel. Another student says he would take revenge on anyone who murdered his family, but would not kill them all.”[5]
This is not surprising, for we have seen similar incidents in history.[6] In fact, Talmudic ideology always views the Goyim as the enemy to be conquered and slaughtered. It is the way that the Khazarian cult works, and it is essentially racist and diabolical. But again who is protesting against this? The ADL?
In any event, what are the cults that are now supporting BLM? Here they are:
