Old News but still relevant: Learner denounces Blankfort as both an Idiot and an Antisemite.

Re: Sharon and his neocon heavies have won
Date: Thursday, April 15, 2004

They won in part because idiots and anti-Semites like yourself helped disempower the pro-Israel left that has been advocating for the Geneva Accord as a real alternative to Sharon -- an alternative that had the possibility of developing a serious constituency both within this country and in Israel for the proposition that Israel and the US would be best served by ending the Occupation and allowing a politically and economically viable Palestinian state to emerge.

But our progressive "middle path" that is both pro-Israel and pro-Palestine was torpedoed by people like you who managed to undermine any possible unity the liberal and progressive world might have shown against Bush/Sharon and instead fulfilled what for all I know might have been your paid mission as an agent of Sharon: to create fights and disunity in the camp of those who are seeking to end the Occupation.

Just when you thought Jeff couldn't lie like a champ;

Jeff tops himself with this one, claiming the Jews invented antisemitism. Is Jeff losing it because no one reacts to him anymore?

This is beyond satire. The whole concept of "anti-semitism" was crafted by the Jewish establishment world-wide, well before Israel's existence, and well before WW 2, to distinguish prejudice against Jews from other types of racism in order to give the impression that it is something far more sinister and repulsive than other forms. And here we thought 'antisemitism' was a term invented by a German social scientist using it to differentiate between hating Judaism and hating Jews as a people.

Is it not interesting that a number of Jewish leaders over the years have made comments noting that a little anti-Semitism is not so bad because it keeps Jews united? I guess that's what makes it different. I don't recall representatives of any other group victimized by racism or prejudice claiming that such maltreatment was beneficial (But Jeff, you don't recall much of anything that doesn't help your hate filled agenda.) What other group is constantly taking and publicizing polls such as those commissioned by the ADL and other Jewish organizations to determine if non-Jews in the US and Europe think that "the Jews have too much power," an affirmative answer, that is, the truth, being considered by the Jewish poll takers as evidence that it is. Their plan has clearly worked. There is not a single museum in the United States that chronicles the crimes committed against the indigenous peoples of this country, or the Americas, or a single museum that details the viciousness of slavery in the way that the Holocaust Museum in Washington and the 90 other such museums across the country focus on the crimes committed against the Jews by the Nazis, with whom, ironically, the Zionists in Palestine collaborated with until the beginning of the war. Of course, this latest joke of a task force is just further evidence that the Jewish Zionist lobby runs the US Congress. And in the US today, the truth has become "anti-Semitic."-JB Sorry, Jeff, but you are antisemitic. The truth remains the truth no matter what clowns like you do to undermine it.
