. . . and that tipping point has now been well and
truly reached.
As a Jew, I openly confess to not being a
synagogue-attending bible-thumper. In fact, I think Richard Dawkins might, to an
extent, have a somewhat valid point. Why do people transport themselves back to
the 16th Century, wear ludicrous clothes or have completely illogical habits in
the cause of following something totally devoid of one single shred of factual
evidence in support?
I'm talking about religion.
On a very basic level, if you are a bible-thumper, can you
ACTUALLY prove there is an all-seeing, all-doing deity, a he or she who must be
obeyed? Can you prove Noah built a huge boat containing, among other beings, a
pair of rabbits, a pair of flies, a pair of crocodiles, a pair of elephants and
a pair of Cobras and that it housed the only surviving family on
earth? Can you prove you gain the pleasure of 72 virgins after you pass away?
Can you prove you were born to a woman without a conception taking place? Can
you prove claims of "memories going back 76 trillion years"? (that's
Scientology for you, in case you were wondering)?
Why no! Of course you can't.
Instead you are continually fobbed off with the hackneyed
saying "to believe you have to have faith, and to have faith you have to
believe". So using an analogy of that get-out-clause, a chronic gambler on
a high street fixed-odds money swallowing machine is totally off the hook for
leaving their family without food and clothing because "they have faith in
the machine and believe they can win".
Terrific.
Now most world ills over the centuries have been the result
of the adherents to one set of unprovable scientific beliefs being pitted
against adherents to another set of unprovable beliefs. And as the scientific
world these adherents reject moves further on in sophistication, the weapons
being produced for enforcing their beliefs on others similarly advance. Yes,
weapons they believe in, but scientific proof, none do they have.
And the root of all this evil? By and large money, power,
bigotry and blame culture. You only have to look at the likes of the Sheriff
of Nottingham, Cardinal Richelieu, Hamas or the IRA. They made/are making
millions at the expense of those they claim or claimed to support.
Now what I can’t abide is the hypocrisy of hate. The
partisan attitude of the haters who more often than not haven’t actually a clue
as to who or why they hate they way they do. They are usually very easily-led sheep, probably
of quite low intellect who follow some charismatic lunatic because they would be otherwise excluded from normal society. Not that this is in any way normal, you will understand. And more often than not they have not
only never actually been to the country they hate, but have never even met
anyone from that country, or someone from that country living in their own country.
It bears similarity to when people of my age played in the streets during the
60’s. The cowboys were the ‘goodies’ and the Indians were the ‘baddies’. It's
only when we got older that we realised the Indians, the then indigenous
population, had been forced into being the baddies because of the corrupt and
better-than-thou mentality of the gold-rush diggers and rail barons who usurped
their lands chasing their filthy lucre.
However, all is different now and thanks to the ready
availability of information, it is easier for people to get hold of the
knowledge they need in order to make an informed decision for themselves. But
this is where it all falls down. Whether through ignorance, laziness, fear,
jealousy or good old-fashioned bigotry and racism, they often choose to ignore
history and facts and instead accede to simply accepting false blame culture. Or
they believe that, which, through their own lack of intelligence, they find more
convenient to believe, even if it is so far removed from the truth or actuality
as to be laughable, or more often, contemptible.
The Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) and Boycott
Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movements have proven themselves to be the most
hypocritical and anti-Semitic organisations on the planet. These two
organisations are actually using the terminology “acceptable face of
anti-Semitism and Jewhate” by stealth.
Their continual partisan vitriol against Israel and the Jews is very
thinly, if at all, disguised as criticism against the government of Israel. It is
never ending and in truth can be accepted as legitimate only by either the most
narrow-minded or uninformed bigot . . . or the 100% anti-Semite. They openly condemn
Israel and the Jews for alleged acts of barbarism, with the added pretence of
Apartheid that are complete figments of their infertile and underutilised
imaginations. They are totally without foundation, fact or proof, but these are
actually the very practices that have been shown to be carried out by the likes
of Hamas who govern the very people the PSC claim to support.
In particular, the Brighton division of the PSC, possibly
the UK’s most virulent Jewhaters in the UK, took part in a gay pride rally
where they demonstrated against what they narrow-mindedly perceive to be
Apartheid in Israel. Israel, meanwhile, is the only true democracy in the
Middle East, where unlike most Arab Muslim countries, non-Jews sit side-by-side
with Israeli Jews in government, the civil service, the judiciary, education
and the military. Neither are women dictated to by the state, as they are for
example in Iran or Saudi Arabia, the great exponents of Human Rights violations
that seem to totally escape censure by that august body of partisan anti-Israel
resolution producers, the UN.
But what is beyond laughable is that the PSC should attend a
Gay Pride event at all. Israel is the only country in the Middle East that
freely allows Gay Pride Events onto the calendar of organised activities within
its cities and towns! The event in Tel Aviv is such a full week of activity for
the LGBT Community that it has become an international tourist attraction!
Meanwhile in Gaza, populated by the very people the PSC
purport to support, gay people are thrown live off tall buildings or dragged
along behind motorcycles by Hamas. So what right does the PSC have to criticise
Israel under the sham of its attendance at a Gay Pride event, the very section of the community those it supports are more than happy to murder for being so?
Unless, of course, the PCS themselves are anti-gay, a conclusion any rational person might perhaps reach?

I am sick to the back teeth of the continual hypocritical
and partisan attitude towards ONLY Israel shown by these groups. Enough is
enough. If they are continually going to throw stones (something the
Palestinians seem to excel at regardless) in their own greenhouses, they
deserve to be treated with utter contempt by all rational, free-thinking people
who should withdraw their support for these rabid anti-Semites.
It’s time this Jew-hating was stopped by the free world. Let
the barbarians hate within their own fetid environments, not in our civilised
society that is continually under threat from Islamists, not Jews.
Just leave us alone to our one , simpledesire – to be allowed to live
in peace in our own land while continuing to produce not car bombs, suicide
vests, stone-throwing or terrorism, but the technological and medical
innovations that the hypocrites of the PSC and BDS continue to use themselves while calling for others to boycott.
Let them smash the windows of their own glass house if that
is how ignorantly and stupidly they wish to live their own insignificant, bigoted
lives.
Enough is enough.
