| Saudi cartoon shows Quranic story of how Jews were transformed into monkeysnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown), 19 Oct 04:45 AM From MEMRI, a Saudi cartoo | | From MEMRI, a Saudi cartoon that shows the Quranic story of Jews turning into apes and pigs (without the pig part): On October 9, 2021, an animated video for children depicting a Quranic story about Jews being transformed into apes was uploaded to the Ibtikar Media channel on YouTube. The narrator told the story about a group of Jews in a seaside village who violated Allah's commandment to keep the Sabbath by casting fishing nets on Friday and gathering fish on Sunday. The narrator said that the group of Jews who did this were punished by being transformed into apes. Ibtikar Media is a Saudi YouTube channel. Narrator: "There used to be a Jewish village on the seashore. One of Allah's laws that He laid down for them was that He forbade them from fishing on the Sabbath, in order to devote themselves to worship. Allah tested them by sending a lot of fish only on the Sabbath. So they employed a trick. They would cast their nets on Friday, the fish would get trapped in the nets on Saturday, and they would collect them on Sunday. "The [Jewish villagers] were divided into three groups. One group defied Allah's commandment. They would fish [on the Sabbath] by employing trickery and deception. Another group abided by Allah's commandment, and never defied Him. They would warn the people about Allah's wrath and His punishment, and would forbid them from doing what they...Read More |
From Ian: Islamist Who Defended Murderers of Jews to Speak at Tree of Life Anti-Hate Summit In October, former President George W. Bush, Biden's DHS Secretary, Alejandro Mayorkas, ADL boss Jonathan Greenblatt, and other notables will descend on the massive Lawrence Convention Center in downtown Pittsburgh. The occasion isn't a party convention, but the inaugural Eradicate Hate global summit inspired by the Tree of Life massacre in the area. During the Tree of Life massacre, a white supremacist gunman opened fire on worshipers at the suburban synagogue in Squirrel Hill and killed 11 people. The shooter had told police, "All these Jews need to die". The Eradicate Hate summit will commemorate that occasion by inviting a hater, Salam Al-Marayati of the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC), to speak. Salam Al-Marayati has defended Hamas and Hezbollah. MPAC had called for removing them from the list of terrorist organizations. He responded to 9/11 by suggesting that Israel was behind the attacks. Just last year he came out with an op-ed accusing Jews of having "weaponized antisemitism to marginalize critics of Israel, especially American Muslims." In the 90s, Jewish groups protested the decision by Democrats to appoint him to a counterterrorism commission after his organization argued that the murder of Jews had been adopted by terrorists as one of the "violent...Read More |
Something I came up with today. I could have listed about 130 countries that have worse scores than Israel in Freedom House's list of free and not free countries. But then the haters would scream "whataboutism!" * * * * * *

My Intersectionality Victimhood Calculator is coming up to its third anniversary, and I have been amazed at how accurate it is.
To recap, the calculator is meant to determine who is the "winner" in any conflict in this new woke world. The actual facts in any conflict are utterly irrelevant - only the victimhood score, which is the sum of all attributes a person has. One with a negative victimhood score is perceived as an oppressor, a positive score means that one is oppressed. My scoring system, which holds up amazingly well, was: Trans
8 Black
8 Native American or other First People
7 Woman
6 Gay
6 Muslim
5 Arab, other Middle Eastern
5 Hispanic
4 Disabled, pregnant
4 Anti-Zionist Jew
4 Wears hijab
2 Palestinian
2 Asian American
1 White
-1 Republican or conservative
-3 Christian (white only)
-3 Jew
-3 Visibly religious Jew
-3 Jewish settler
-6 Identifies proudly as Zionist
-8 Trump supporter
-8 White nationalist/neo Nazi
-18 The only change I made since 2018 was that would be that if the person identifies as a proud Zionist, any of his or her positive victimhood scores should be inverted to negative. That is the Jason Hill/Hen Mazzig rule - a person who is supposedly in a victimhood group of being, say, gay or a person of color or an immigrant...Read More |
From Ian: 89% of Palestinian films showcased by Netflix directed by BDS supporters Nearly 90% of films in Netflix's recently launched "Palestinian Stories" collection of films are directed by supporters of the boycott, divestment, and sanctions movement, according to findings from right-wing watchdog group Im Tirzu. On Friday, Israel Hayom reported the online streaming service had announced the launch of the collection of 32 films, which it said would be expanded in the future. Sixteen of the 19 directors whose films are currently available for streaming in the Palestinian category are BDS supporters, while 12 had called for a boycott of the Jewish state when they signed a letter blasting Israel as recently as May. In the letter titled "A Letter Against Apartheid," the directors alleged "Palestinians are being attacked and killed with impunity by Israeli soldiers and armed Israeli civilians who have been roaming the streets of Jerusalem, Lydda, Haifa, Jaffa, and other cities chanting, 'Death to Arabs.'" The letter further accused Israel's government of carrying out a "massacre" in the Gaza Strip and fomenting "murder, intimidation, and violent dispossession." "We call for an end to the support provided by global powers to Israel and its military … Israeli apartheid is sustained by international complicity, it is our collective responsibility to redress...Read More |
This headline prompted me to look up about any other time that Irish people "defied Israel."
This is the best contemporaneous article I can find about the boycott of Jews in Limerick, Ireland, in 1904. See? They don't hate Jews because of their religion, but because they are simply all collectively guilty! The Catholic priest's words were not quite so clear-cut, though. Antisemites always claim that their actions come from the highest moral obligations, that they don't have any hate in their hearts but are only doing what is necessary and right to protect innocent people. Ireland's support for boycotting Israel today is coming from the exact same place that Father Creagh claimed to have come from 117 year ago. And today's boycotters reject any suggestion of their own bigotry as their Irish predecessors did in 1904. * * * * * *

I noted last week that Al Quds al Arabi, a pan-Arab newspaper run by Palestinians in the UK, regularly posts antisemitic pieces. It is one of the most popular Arab news websites in the world, ranked #18 among all sites in Jordan and among the top 4000 sites of all kinds worldwide. In addition, the actual physical newspaper has a circulation of some 50,000 copies daily. Today, it published another such piece, that looks at first glance to be merely "anti-Zionist" but in Arabic media there is no real distinction.
The cartoon header indicates the main idea: Jews are milking Arab money and oil from the countries that support normalization with Israel. (There is a bit of misogyny here, as the implication is that those countries are feminine and weak.) The article, by Ihsan Al-Faqih- a new young female star in the Arab punditocracy - says: The decision to settle the Jews in Palestine came in line with the Western imperialist vision, which aims to implant a foreign body in this region, with a different culture and a different ideology, that breaks up the unity of this region, prevents the unity of its lands, and keeps it inflamed and weak so that colonialism...Read More |
