Report on Beth Israel vigil 12-31-22
Playing the Holocaust Card
Things must be getting a little tight in the Jewish community, as we witness a new billboard just north of Ann Arbor by a group called JewBelong. This billboard now exists where our billboard (“America First Not Israel”) was removed due to pressure from the Jewish community applied to the billboard companies. These billboard companies hide behind their “private sector privilege” to censor our message while promoting theirs. We lose; they win; familiar tale.
Playing Our Hand
Questioning JewBelong’s assertion of the existence of homicidal gas chambers used by Nazi Germany against Jews on a local Facebook group – Ann Arbor Politics – upset moderators Stephen Ranzini and Diane Brainard so much that they officially “terminated” this writer from the group. So, utilizing the only media we “own”, i.e. the public sidewalks, we countered this Saturday with a sign of our own.
From Palestine to the Holocaust
Many of our well-intentioned friends and supporters caution us against challenging the Holocaust narrative. They claim that we are opening up a can of worms, and will lose credibility. We counter with this salient observation: If any other ethnic group – other than the Jews – were committing genocide against the Palestinians, this so-called “conflict” would be over before you could say “Benjamin Netanyahu”. We are currently working on “From Palestine to the Holocaust - A Sixteen-step Guide for Palestine Liberation Activists”. In succinct form, this guide will produce a path from which many “activists” will depart. And the point at which they depart will tell the rest of us just how committed these folks are to liberating Palestine from Jewish oppression. Want to peek at our guide and give constructive advice? Please contact this writer via email or Facebook.
