- Vowing to combat global anti-Semitism
by every means at his disposal, veteran Jewish activist Gregg Rickman was
recently sworn in by Condoleezza Rice as head of the State Department's
office of global anti-Semitism. Jewish activists view Rickman's appointment
as a victory against a U.S. State Department which had protested establishment
of yet another Jewish special interest agency. Several years ago the
State Department claimed it already adequately monitored global human rights
abuses and promoted Holocaust remembrance. Yet Jewish lobbyists persuaded
Congress 18 months ago to create a special federal agency dedicated solely
to silencing "virulent criticism" of Israel and matters Jewish
or questioning the six million figure of alleged Holocaust victims.
-
- UNITING SYNAGOGUE WITH STATE DEPARTMENT
-
- Rickman's appointment, as a veteran protagonist
of all things Jewish, makes it clear that the office of global anti-Semitism
will not be bipartisan. Rather, as I have warned since its inception,
it is merely a front for ADL/B'nai B'rith's anti-Christian hate laws agenda
-- a foundation upon which to federalize and internationalize persecution
of Christians.
-
- Are you still unfamiliar with this new
thought crimes bureaucracy in our midst? Are you aware of its many
perverse definitions of anti-Semitism? Here is the article I published last
summer on this subject. It answers many questions yet poses many more concerning
the "Office to Monitor and Control Anti-Semitism," mandated as
H.R. 4230 by Congress.
-
- THE REAL MOTIVE BEHIND THE
- "DEPARTMENT OF GLOBAL
ANTI-SEMITISM"
-
- By Rev. Ted Pike
-
- 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.
-
- This is more "Hate Crimes"
legislation, orchestrated by the international Jewish religious, educational,
and fraternal organization, B'nai B'rith, and its Anti-Defamation League.
The new "Department of Global Anti-Semitism" is designed to make
critics of Israel not only into "anti-Semites" but ultimately
into "domestic terrorists."
-
- But first, what is anti-Semitism? Simple:
It is the racist belief that Jews, because of heredity, are evil, greedy,
corrupting, subversive, degenerate, etc. Hitler believed this. So do the
KKK and certain "Christian identity" and white supremacist groups.
-
- Such dehumanization of Jews is evil,
un-Christian, un-American.
-
- On the other hand, if the actions of
individual Jews, Jewish institutions, Jewish religious or secular leaders,
or the nation Israel have been evil, then vehement criticism is not anti-Semitic.
It is courageous and laudable. Certainly, the Biblical prophets, including
Christ, engaged in vitriolic criticism of the sinful nation Israel and
its false leaders. No one considers them anti-Semitic.
-
- TWISTED DEFINITIONS OF "ANTI-SEMITISM"
-
- However, in its "Report on Global
Anti-Semitism" and "Global Anti-Semitism Report," the U.S.
State Department ignores the above perspectives. Here is a list of beliefs
or activities the U.S. government now considers anti-Semitic:
- 1 Any assertion "that the Jewish
community controls government, the media, international business and the
financial world" is anti-Semitic.
- 2 "Strong anti-Israel sentiment"
is anti-Semitic.
- 3 "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."
- 4 Criticism of the Jewish religion
or its religious leaders or literature (especially the Talmud and Kabbalah)
is anti-Semitic.
- 5 Criticism of the U.S. government
and Congress for being under undue influence by the Jewish-Zionist community
(including AIPAC) is anti-Semitic.
- 6 Criticism of the Jewish-Zionist community
for promoting globalism (the "New World Order") is anti-Semitic.
- 7 Blaming Jewish leaders and their
followers for inciting the Roman crucifixion of Christ is anti-Semitic.
- 8 Diminishing the "six million"
figure of Holocaust victims is anti-Semitic.
- 9 Calling Israel a "racist"
state is anti-Semitic.
- 10 Asserting that there exists a "Zionist
Conspiracy" is anti-Semitic.
- 11 Claiming that Jews and their leaders
created the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia is anti-Semitic.
- 12 Making "derogatory statements
about Jewish persons" is anti-Semitic.
- 13 Saying Jews cannot re-inhabit Palestine
as a nation, except in obedience to God, is anti-Semitic.
- 14 Alleging that Mossad was behind
the 9/11 attack is anti-Semitic.
-
-
- ANTI-SEMITISM IS A "HATE CRIME"
-
- In the Global Anti-Semitism Report, State
Department spokespersons Ambassador Edward O'Donnell and the head of the
office of global anti-Semitism, Ambassador Michael B. Kozak, defend the
State Department's definitions. O'Donnell's statement that he wants to
"end all anti-Semitism and other hate crimes" reveals that he
considers anti-Semitism a hate crime. Presumably, he would like such a
"crime" to be punished.
-
- These State Department reports repeatedly
equate "strong, anti-Israel sentiment" and criticism of matters
Jewish with "hate." They give no recognition to the possibility
that such criticism might be sincerely motivated not by hate but by moral
indignation or even love for the Jewish people.
-
- The Report on Global Anti-Semitism repeatedly
calls for passage, both nationally and internationally, of "hate crime"
legislation. These laws, the brainchild of B'nai B'rith/ADL, also have
as their ultimate goal making it a "hate crime" to criticize
Jews, matters Jewish, or the state of Israel.
-
- The Report on Global Anti-Semitism reeks
with B'nai B'rith/ADL logic, phraseology, and evidence of their incredible
worldwide organizational and statistic-gathering capacities. It contains
thirty-three pages of minute documentation of "anti-Semitic incidents"
in fifty-eight countries of the world, documentation which only B'nai B'rith/ADL,
with its offices in more than fifty countries, could compile or even be
that vitally interested in. Without a doubt, as with hate laws, this Global
Anti-Semitism Review Act is their creation.
-
- CRITICISM-FREE ZONE FOR JEWS
-
- Thus, the Department of Anti-Semitism,
applauded and advised by B'nai B'rith/ADL, is working to create a worldwide
"criticism-free zone" for Jews in the "New World Order"
that is coming. This report ignores whether criticisms of matters Jewish
are true. What must be defended are the sensitivities of the Jewish people!
Consequently, relating such unflattering realities as the anti-Christian,
anti-Gentile contents of the Talmud and Kabbalah, Jewish origins of bolshevism,
Jewish dominance of Hollywood and the media, Jewish control of Congress
through AIPAC, Zionist atrocities and abrasiveness in the Middle East is
anti-Semitic. It is "hate." It does not matter that such facts
can be easily and extensively documented, often from impeccable Jewish
sources such as the Encyclopedia Judaica.
-
- All such anti-Semitism, this report says,
is a "scourge," an "intolerable burden," which "for
an increasingly interdependent worldmust be ended."
-
- On the other hand, according to the U.S.
State Department, there does exist some possibility that "objective
criticism" of Israel and its leaders can be tolerated - that is, just
as long as such criticism does not "cross the line" and become
"strong anti-Israel sentiment" and "virulent." Such
criticism should not "demonize" Jews, Jewish religious or political
leaders, or the state of Israel.
-
- However, what may be considered "virulence"
or "demonization" by Zionists may be seen as nothing more than
salty truth-telling by critics of Israel. Hypocritically, the State Department
itself is not above "demonizing" strong critics of Israel in
the most "virulent" terms as a "plague" and "scourge"
on mankind!
-
- TURNING "ANTI-SEMITISM" INTO
"DOMESTIC TERRORISM"
-
- The State Department's twisted definition
of anti-Semitism provides exponential opportunities to persecute Bible-believing
Christians, anti-war activists, Moslems, as well as publishers and broadcasters
in the years ahead. In fact, by turning "strong" criticism of
the American/Zionist coalition into "anti-Semitism and other hate
crimes," the State Department opens the door to eventual characterization
of those who criticize Israel as not only anti-Semites but also as "domestic
terrorists."
-
- Here's how it can be done:
-
- Today, those who raise funds in America
to support America's and Israel's terrorist enemies are arrested as "domestic
terrorists." But what if articulate Americans provided something else,
potentially even more valuable to Israel's enemies: "strong criticism"
of Israel? Such could weaken Israel morally in the sight of the world,
giving justification to the claims of her terrorist enemies. Should they
also be punished?
-
- As the Second World War was beginning
in 1939, Charles Lindberg was publicly critical of international Jews for
inveigling America into a war to destroy Hitler. Lindberg believed that
Hitler should be allowed to do what he wanted to do most, move east and
destroy "Jewish Communism" in Russia.
-
- In 1944, 30 Americans, who agreed with
Lindberg, were arrested for the crime of "sedition," weakening
America's resolve in the fight against fascism. Later investigation under
the Freedom of Information Act revealed that the ADL, attempting to equate
criticism of international Jews with Nazism, had entirely created the FBI
case.
-
- Records revealed that the ADL was "only
warming up" by pursuing sedition convictions against 30 innocent Americans.
Their ultimate ambition was to imprison prominent critics of evil Jewish
leadership, especially Charles Lindberg. Fortunately, ADL's attempt to
transform 30 critics of international Jews into "Nazis" failed
when the judge died and the case was dissolved.
-
- Today, America and Israel are allies
in the "war on terror." Tomorrow, especially if the war on terror
intensifies and America and Israel cooperate even more closely, criticism
of America's ally in the war on terrorism may be construed as "aiding
and abetting the enemy." Such "strong criticism" or anti-Semitism
may be seen as not only weakening Israel, but America itself.
-
- Turning millions of Americans into anti-Semites
for criticizing Israel is thus a transition toward ADL's ultimate goal:
making such persons "enemies of the war on terror," i.e., "domestic
terrorists."
-
- They then can be prosecuted under Homeland
Security laws.
-
- CANADA: ALREADY MAKING "ANTI-SEMITES"
INTO "DOMESTIC TERRORISTS"
-
- In Canada, we are seeing exactly this
happen. Ernst Zundel is a Holocaust revisionist who doubts that a full
six million Jews were deliberately murdered by the Nazis, largely by gassing.
He asserts that untold numbers of Jews in German internment camps, especially
in the last years of the war, died not in gas chambers, but as a result
of massive, well-documented typhus epidemics, which also killed countless
Poles, Gypsies, Russians, etc. Yet in Canada, thanks to ADL/B'nai B'rith,
it is a "hate crime" to lesson to any degree the six million
figure of Holocaust dead, or that most of them died in gas chambers. Such
diminishment is anti-Semitism, a "hate crime" punishable by harsh
fines and imprisonment. Several years ago Zundel was deported from his
home in Tennessee back to Canada to spend more than two years in solitary
confinement in a Canadian prison. He was then deported back to his native
Germany where he remains in prison.
-
- Under what charge have Canadian authorities
been holding him?
-
- You guessed it. He is a "terrorist
threat!"
-
- So it will be for millions of Americans
tomorrow if ADL/B'nai B'rith have their way and the Department of Anti-Semitism's
twisted definitions of anti-Semitism are allowed to stand.
-
- The Department of Global Anti-Semitism
is informing the world who the "domestic terrorists" of tomorrow
will be.
-
- They are you and I.

-
- WHAT CAN WE DO?
-
- We can do plenty!
-
- Call our members of Congress toll-free
at 1-877-762-8762
-
- Call the U.S. State Department comment
line at 1-202-647-4000
-
- Demand that all funding and authority
for the development of the Department of Anti-Semitism be rescinded.
-
- Demand that Congressional hearings be
held to re-formulate a workable, balanced definition of "anti-Semitism"
- one that protects Bible-believing Christians, critics of Israel, and
Moslems from persecution as "anti-Semites."
-
- Also, call into talk shows, especially
large, syndicated ones.
-
- Since the threat of hate laws is "taboo"
on most large shows, do not tell the talk show operator that you want to
comment on that subject. If the topic of the day is even remotely related
to the issue of free speech, terrorism, the Mid-East, etc., begin with
those topics but quickly move the discussion to the threat of hate laws.
Describe how free speech is lost in Canada; how eleven Christians were
arrested under Pennsylvania's hate law; how the "Department of Anti-semitism"
would make many Americans into anti-semites.
