"Go back to the oven! You need a big oven, that's what you need!"
This is what one young woman thought passed for acceptable discourse during an anti-Israel rally last week in, of all places, Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Other chants were similarly unlovely. You can watch it on YouTube if you like.
But why bother? The Fort Lauderdale outburst is just one window on the upside-down world of Israel hatred. Across the Islamic world, and in too many points West, it is still considered a penetrating and poignant insight to call Zionists the "new Nazis." For instance, in Sunday's Gulf News, Mohammad Abdullah al Mutawa, a sociology professor at United Arab Emirates University, penned an essay titled "Zionists are the new Nazis." He began: "Today, the whole world stands as a witness to the fact that the Nazi Holocaust was a mere lie, which was devised by the Zionists to blackmail humanity."
At a Saturday protest in New York against Israel's military assault on Gaza, some carried signs that read: "Israel: The Fourth Reich," "Holocaust by Holocaust Survivors," "Stop Israel's Holocaust," "Holocaust in Gaza" and "Stop the Zionist Genocide in Gaza."
Type "Israel" and "Nazi" into any news search engine and you'll be rewarded, or punished, with a bounty of such statements from just the last week or so. Gaza is the new Auschwitz, the Israeli Defense Forces are SS troops ... I find myself tempted to simply write "et cetera" because it's all so familiar by now. But to do that is to dismiss, and therefore accept, such grotesqueries as trivialities, when in fact such charges are deeply revealing -- just not about Israel.
First, let us note that if supposedly all-powerful Israel is dedicated to exterminating the Palestinian people, it is doing a bad job. The Palestinian population has only grown since 1948. There are more Arab citizens living in Israel proper today than there were in all of Palestine the year Israel was founded.
Perhaps one reason Israel fails at genocide is that it isn't interested in genocide? That would explain why Israel warned thousands of Gazans by cell phone to leave homes near Hamas rocket stockpiles. It would clarify why, even amid all-out war, it offers aid to enemy civilians. It would even illuminate the otherwise mysterious clamor from Israelis for a viable "peace partner."
But no. For millions of Israel haters, the more plausible explanation is that the "defiant" Palestinians have miraculously survived Israel's determination to wipe them out.
Meanwhile, calls for the complete extermination of Israel are routine. The Hamas charter, invoking the fraudulent "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" as justification, demands the destruction of Israel. Hamas exists solely because it is dedicated to the complete obliteration of the "Zionist entity." Remove that "principle" and Hamas is meaningless.
A sick mixture of Holocaust envy and Holocaust denial is the defining spirit of Hamas. Indeed, Holocaust denial passes for a scholarly pursuit not just in Gaza but throughout much of the Arab and Muslim world.
The head of the Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbas, literally earned a doctorate in it. His doctoral thesis became a book, "The Other Side: the Secret Relationship Between Nazism and Zionism," in which he denounces "the Zionist fantasy, the fantastic lie that 6 million Jews were killed." In Hamas' eyes, Abbas is an incorrigible moderate.
It's Palestinian Islamists who have ideological and political ties to Nazism stretching back to the days of "Hitler's Mufti," Haj Amin al-Husseini, a happy warrior for the Nazi cause.
So why the obsession with casting the Israelis as the new Hitlerites? One answer is surely that critics know such charges are painful to a country largely born of the Holocaust and marked by its scars. It also grabs attention, galvanizes radicals, vents legitimate frustrations and anger, and helps demonize the enemy and, hence, justify the murder of "Zionists everywhere," as Hamas often declares in its communiques.
But I think the desire to cast the Israelis as Nazis is fueled, deep down, by the haters' need to see their own hatreds and ambitions mirrored in their enemy's actions. Hamas has an avowedly Hitlerite agenda. The only way to make such an agenda defensible is to convince yourself and others that the Israelis deserve it. Hence, Hamas and its allies insist that when they aim rockets at grade schools and playgrounds, they are resisting the "new Nazis." It brings to mind Huey Long's reported prophecy that if fascism ever came to America, it would be called anti-fascism. Well, with Hamas, Hitlerism comes to the Middle East wearing the mask of anti-Hitlerism.

Blog Commentary
“A tomb now suffices him for whom the whole world was not sufficient.”
Alexander the Great
The current great struggle between Judaism and Islam, mirrors the greater thousand year-long, hard slog between the Crusaders of Christendom and the Islamists of Jihadistan.
Is religion the true enemy, or is it a race war?
I submit that it is both.
This struggle over land, is being repeated here in the United States of America with the Mexican occupation of American territory by 38 million Mexican nationals, who come in the name of La Reconquista.
The perpetrator of racism will ALWAYS be the first to point the finger of blame. It is a cloaking technique of war, the ultimate subterfuge of misinformation
For example, the cheeky Mexican invader informs Americans that the land— forcibly taken by Mexico from Spain, occupied for less than a quarter century and never developed, is really "Mexican territory." Further, a long string of Mexican presidents have asserted that the borders of that nation extend beyond the present boundary with the United States.
A fiction of entitlement in the Mexican national consciousness.
They are the ones who would rewrite our national anthem and manifest destiny as a people, rather than prosecute the Second Mexican Revolution in their own country. They play parasite to America's host.
As for the fiction of the Jihadist:
“I was reading something very new, a Jewish Bible, and saw that the Jews have suffered the true refugee problem, not the Palestinians. My enemies accuse me of being a racist and a traitor when I became a Christian and began loving the Jews. What is amazing is that when I was a terrorist, I was a “freedom fighter” but for loving the Jewish people and their culture I am called a racist. As time went on, I concluded that if I found myself in love, that was indeed an “infection,” I prayed to God that I would be plagued with it, and that I would never recover. Is this my sin? That I began to love Jews, as well as Hindus, Buddhists, and Muslims? To love life is a sin? To want to protect both Jewish and Arab children is a sin? To Islamists yes!”
Walid Shoebat, former PLO terrorist,

Mexicans see themselves as the new Palestinians, with an axe to grind. They even attend Palestinian conferences, as fellow brothers-in-arms.
Mexico prosecutes a systematic racial war of extermination against the white race, with a Mexican lebensborn movement here in America, via the "anchor baby."
All wars are race wars, predicated on loyalty to tribe. The present internecine conflict in Iraq , stands as a stark testament to this truth.
Osama bin Laden has declared every American man, woman and child as a target for extermination by Jihad. In doing so, he ultimately passes sentence on the Arab world.
These are the established genocidal ground rules for the great struggle between Islam and the West, as promulgated by the fatwa of Osama bin Laden.
Should the Arab world be surprised at the present result, manifested in Gaza? Just what were they expecting? What will they expect when Mecca is reduced to cinders; will the Mahdi come then?
More likely, an American Air Force base will come to pave over, and occupy the holy ground.
American children have been fingered for extermination by Osama bin Laden, the Master Nazi, and disciple of Lucifer.
This alleged "Man of God"--and his minions-- would hurt a child. Where is the moral restraint in this? Why should the world be horrified with Arab civilian casualties, when such a spectacle is the direct result of a policy instituted by Islam?
Islam is directly to blame for the horror, not Israel.
Roseanne Barr needs to go back to night school, because she sure can't sing, and can barely act!
She would have made a fine kapo in the concentration camps, betraying her own race, as she has done by condemning it before the world.
Intelligent politicians who realize this great truth of Arab genocide, will give Israel the green light to prosecute an all-out, no-holds barred war against the Arabs for national survival. It has come to this.
The propaganda Americans receive in the media, can best be summed up by this statement of an innocent noncombatant:
“There’s no electricity. There’s no water. There’s fear,” said al Masri, who lives in Beit Hanon, a town in Northern Gaza. "What have we done to deserve this?”
USA Today 1-5-09
Americans asked the same question when similar events of war transpired on 9-11.
This killing of the innocents is the face of war. There is no celestial glory in this. It is what the Jihadist has imposed on innocent people, with his religious war, called "jihad."
The Arab world is just beginning to understand that war is hell. They must not depend on Western nations to defend them in the court of public opinion. In fact, it would behoove them to go home--while they still can-- and forget about a new Islamic caliphate in the Western world.
It is time for America to emulate the Pontius Pilate model of foreign policy for the Middle East: benign neglect and hand washing.
Let the Jews and the Arabs find their own "road map" to peace. That utopia will only come with total war. That is what they want, so why restrain them? Let "God's Will" come to the fore.
"Diplomacy without arms, is like music without instruments."
Frederick the Great
This struggle does not apply to America, where this writer has both Jews and Arabs married into his family. Both peoples are beautiful.
“Nations have no permanent friends and no permanent enemies; only permanent interests.”
Lord Palmerston
The state of Israel believes only in its own self-preservation and national interest. That is why Israel sells advanced military hardware to America’s enemy—Red China. America does not forget this treachery.
America is NOT the Siamese twin of Israel.
The Arabs will have only themselves to blame when Mecca, Medina, and the grave of the Prophet are blasted to smithereens, for they have set the precedent by vandalizing Jewish graves, destroying world cultural artifacts and heritage sites--such as the Baminyan Buddhas--and destroying the Shrines of Democracy here in America, with their direct attack on our country of September 11th, 2001.
That attack did not differentiate the innocent from the warrrior caste. There is no double standard in warfare. War is indiscriminate destruction.
Americans must stand up as men, to tell the “holy warriors” of Islam that they mock and blaspheme their god, Allah, by slaughtering a human being in sawing-off his head, as if he were a dumb beast. The Crown of Creation, manifested in the human being, has been reduced to brute creation in this unholy act of decapitation.
It is the utter defilement of deity, by those who profess to love God. It is a large enough sin to force Allah to destroy His own spiritual center, by using the "infidel" as His divine instrument.
Karma from the kaffir for kooks from Krapistan.
These assaults on our pursuit of life, liberty and happiness, will no longer be tolerated. The attention span of our nation has been absorbed for far too long, in this ridiculous theater, which is the Middle East. We have allowed ourselves to be dragged into a quarrel which was not our business, until the 9-11 attackers made it so.
Men will defend themselves; pigs will not. Pigs only squeal and bleed. That is a "politically correct" weltanschauung to remember for those who cannot differentiate a hog from a human.
These third world "guest workers"--the Moslems and the Mexicans--of asymmetrical warfare, are known in both hemispheres of the planet. They are unwitting corporate shock troops, used against the industrialized nations of the world, as they pursue their own private agenda of supplanting the host culture.
Their modus operandi of frontal assault is known as “immigration.” That word means that the culture of the host nation-state, becomes forfeit to the "multicultural" deathstyle of "honor killings" and drive-by shootings. No more "Happy Days" for American culture--nor the world--with the advent of the so-called "guest worker."
“I will be harsh as truth, and as uncompromising as justice. On this subject I do not wish to think, or speak, or write, with moderation. No! no! Tell a man whose house is on fire to give a moderate alarm; tell him to moderately rescue his wife from the hands of the ravisher; tell the mother to gradually extricate her babe from the fire into which it has fallen; but urge me not to use moderation in a cause like the present.”
William Lloyd Garrison (1805-1879)
With a 38 million-man Mexican occupation army--and countless other foreign nationals, "OTMs"--violating the sacred soil of America, we must now turn our national attention to defending the porous borders of Fortress America.
Nation-building is the prerogative of the homeland.
