“The not-so-Hidden Hand financing these unsavory efforts is aimed at provoking the ‘War of Civilizations’ fervently desired by the Zionists and their Neo-Conservative allies in the West. This War of Civilizations has three objectives. The first is the expansion of the Zionist State of Israel’s borders to those of ancient Israel’s at the time of King David as told in the Old Testament,” said Mark Dankof in an exclusive interview with Fars News Agency. Dankof believes that Christians and Muslims are equally the victims of a Zionist-engineered project to disparage their religious beliefs and dominate their intellectual resources. He says that the American public should be given an opportunity to make a close acquaintance of the hidden realities of Islam so that they may not fall in the trap of seeing Islam and Muslims through the eyes of extremist Zionists. What follows is the text of Fars News Agency’s interview with Mark Dankof, American political commentator and host of Mark Dankof’s America on The Ugly Truth radio network. |

Kourosh Ziabari: The French government has banned demonstrations and rallies in protest at the anti-Islam movie “Innocence of Muslims.” Isn’t the right of holding demos and public protests a civil right which should be guaranteed based on the principles of human right and international law? Why did the French government which has always boasted of being committed to civil liberties take such a controversial decision?
Mark Dankof: There is but one answer for what has happened in France and elsewhere in the West. When it comes to Jewish and Zionist interests, there is no level playing field for those who protest their actions or their version of truth and morality. Demonstrations and protests are assumed in the West to be a part of the principles of human rights and international law only when these interests are not involved.
As but one example, questioning the establishment version of what happened in the so-called Holocaust in World War II, is a prosecutable offense punishable by disemployment, marginalization, and imprisonment in a number of Western countries. This is ridiculous. Whatever the merits and demerits of the arguments of the Revisionist academics and scholars in this area, the notion that mere advocacy of ideas should have this sort of outcome is indefensible.
There is another example in recent years. On October 16, 2004 President Bush signed into law the Global Anti-Semitism Review Act. It establishes a special department within the U.S. State Department to monitor “Global Anti-Semitism“, reporting annually to Congress.

As Ted Pike and Michael Collins Piper have documented it, this law and the department it created, have defined the following as “anti-Semitic” and worthy of Hate Crimes legislation and prosecution:
Any assertion “that the Jewish community controls government, the media, international business and the financial world” is anti-Semitic.
“Strong anti-Israel sentiment ” is anti-Semitic.
“Virulent criticism” of Israel’s leaders, past or present, is anti-Semitic.
According to the State Department, anti-Semitism occurs when a swastika is portrayed in a cartoon decrying the behavior of a past or present Zionist leader. Thus, a cartoon that includes a swastika to criticize Ariel Sharon’s brutal 2002 invasion of the West Bank, raining “hell-fire ” missiles on hapless Palestinian men, women and children, is anti-Semitic. Similarly, when the word “Zionazi ” is used to describe Sharon’s saturation bombing in Lebanon in 1982 (killing 17,500 innocent refugees), it is also “anti-Semitic.”
Criticism of the Jewish religion or its religious leaders or literature (especially the Talmud and Kabbalah) is anti-Semitic.
Criticism of the U.S. government and Congress for being under undue influence by the Jewish-Zionist community (including AIPAC) is anti-Semitic.
Criticism of the Jewish-Zionist community for promoting globalism (the “New World Order“) is anti-Semitic.
Blaming Jewish leaders and their followers for inciting the Roman crucifixion of Christ is anti-Semitic.
Diminishing the “six million” figure of Holocaust victims is anti-Semitic.
Calling Israel a “racist” state is anti-Semitic.
Asserting that there exists a “Zionist Conspiracy” is anti-Semitic.
Claiming that Jews and their leaders created the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia is anti-Semitic.
Making “derogatory statements about Jewish persons” is anti-Semitic.
Denying spiritually disobedient Jews the biblical right to re-occupy Palestine is anti-Semitic.
Alleging that Mossad was behind the 9/11 attack is anti-Semitic.
We might be forgiven for comparing the sacrosanct position of Jews and Zionists in the West as demonstrated by this American law, with the totally vulnerable position of Islamic and Christian peoples who protest against what is being done to them and to their cultures, in both the United States and Europe.
