The Gaza Crisis and the Intellectual Left in Latin America: A Dark Picture Luis Fleischman

http://www.theamericasreport.com/2012/12/06/the-gaza-crisis-and-the-intellectual-left-in-latin-america-a-dark-picture/ The recent Gaza crisis, during which Israel responded with a limited military operation to stop Hamas missile attacks against Israeli populations, unleashed a number of reactions by intellectuals in Latin America. Some of these reactions were expected but others raise serious concerns about the direction Latin America is taking in what is called “the […]

IS AMERICA WORSE THAN EUROPE ON ISLAM: BRUCE BAWER ****

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/bruce-bawer/america-worse-than-europe-on-islam/  It seems long ago. When I wrote my 2006 book While Europe Slept, I was confident that America was all but immune to the forces that were bringing Europe down. In the book, I spoke of “a philosophical gulf” between Europe and the U.S. that “sometimes seemed as wide as the Atlantic itself.” It […]

DANIEL GREENFIELD: THE SALAFI CRUSADES

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/dgreenfield/the-salafi-crusades/print/ One empire falls and another rises in its place. It’s an old story and it is what we are seeing in the Middle East. The Islamist resurgence was fed by the collapse of two world powers, the USSR and the US. The fall of the Soviet Union robbed the Arab Socialist dictatorships of their […]

ELTON JOHN IS A KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR COMPARED TO STEVIE WONDER…..REMEMBER THIS? IN 2010?

‘Ain’t gonna stop me from coming here, baby’: Elton John performs in Israel after string of other artists cancel appearances

Last week, entertainer extraordinaire Stevie Wonder blew off a dinner for the Friends of the Israel Defense Force after anti-Semitic petitioners by the thousands asked him to pull out of the event. Those petitioners told Wonder that Israel was an “apartheid state.” They suggested that Israel was a human rights violator. And Wonder, not used to receiving political pressure, fell for it, releasing this statement:

Given the current and very delicate situation in the Middle East, and with a heart that has always cried out for world unity, I will not be performing at the FIDF Gala …. I am and have always been against war, any war, anywhere.

Any war, anywhere? How about World War II? Or the Civil War? Would Wonder have cancelled a fundraiser for the Friends of the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry, the first all-black Army unit to fight in the Civil War?

Probably not.

But anti-Israel outcry has an outsized impact in the Hollywood community. The universities have long been a bastion of anti-Israel feeling; the professoriate prefers to think of Israel through a Marxist lens, as a colonial outpost in the midst of the Islamic world. That’s nonsense – Israel has always had a Jewish presence, and the Jewish State is no more a British outpost than India is, especially considering that the Jews had to fight the British to leave and that the British administration was utterly Arab centric.

Living In Denial? Anglo-Jewish Leaders Walk Out On Speakers Warning Of Islamic Antisemitism

“I am touching upon the taboos that have to be broken, because a totally false narrative has been created in Europe
The idea that all cultures are the same is absurd. If there is no hierarchy in culture, then Nazi culture is equivalent to democratic Western culture.
There are Islamic groups which are equivalent in their language and ideology to Nazis. And I have no problem in saying that, because it is true.”

That, according to a report in the Jewish Chronicle, is what Dr Manfred Gerstenfeld, an acknowledged expert on antisemitism in postwar Europe, and a founder of the Journal for the Study of Antisemitism, said following a walkout of some of the Anglo-Jewish communal personalities (notably from the Community Security Trust ) who, citing “Islamophobia” on the part of Dr Gerstenfeld and Egyptian-born author and activist Bat Ye’or (Gisèle Littman), walked out on a symposium on combating antisemitism that took place at London’s Wiener Library recently.

One of the communal figures who reportedly walked out is quoted as explaining:

“I was appalled by Gerstenfeld’s characterisation of Muslim culture as inferior. Nearly all the speakers on the day, including me, stressed that antisemitism must be understood and opposed within an anti-racist framework”

I noted that while the bombing and Aldosary’s arrest had received local news coverage, there was a virtual blackout […]
