John Mearsheimer comes out of the closet

John Mearsheimer, one of the co-authors of the notorious book The Israel Lobby, has come out of the closet and declared himself an anti-Semite. Jeffrey Goldberg is in shock.
Gilad Atzmon is a jazz saxophonist who lives in London and who has a side gig disseminating the wildest sort of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. He is an ex-Israeli and a self-proclaimed "self-hater" who traffics in Holocaust denial and all sorts of grotesque, medieval anti-Jewish calumnies. Here is a small sample of his lunatic thoughts.

...

Atzmon also believes that the Jews persecuted Hitler:

...

He has also suggested that Jews specialize in the trafficking of body parts.

...

Atzmon is quite obviously a twisted and toxic hater. His antisemitism is so blatant that activists of the so-called BDS movement (boycott, divestment and sanctions), which seeks the elimination of Israel, refuse to have anything to do with him. But Atzmon still has at least one friend among anti-Israel activists: The R. Wendell Harrison Distinguished Service Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago, and co-author of "The Israel Lobby," John J. Mearsheimer.

Rather unbelievably (or believably, depending on where you sit) Mearsheimer has written an endorsement of Atzmon's new book, "The Wandering Who?" Here is what Mearsheimer says about Atzmon:
Gilad Atzmon has written a fascinating and provocative book on Jewish identity in the modern world. He shows how assimilation and liberalism are making it incredibly difficult for Jews in the Diaspora to maintain a powerful sense of their 'Jewishness.' Panicked Jewish leaders, he argues, have turned to Zionism (blind loyalty to Israel) and scaremongering (the threat of another Holocaust) to keep the tribe united and distinct from the surrounding goyim. As Atzmon's own case demonstrates, this strategy is not working and is causing many Jews great anguish. The Wandering Who? Should be widely read by Jews and non-Jews alike.'
In this new book, Atzmon suggests, among other things, that scholars should reopen the question of medieval blood libels leveled against Jews-- accusations that Jews used the blood of Christian children to make matzo, and which provoked countless massacres of Jews in many different countries.
One of my contacts in England writes that Goldberg has given too much credit to the local BDS movement.
Although Goldberg points out that the BDS movement coldshoulders Atzmon because of his antisemitism, there are elements within the UK BDS movement that have failed to do so. The Reading Palestine Solidarity Campaign website in the UK regularly links to Atzmon's articles in its sidebar - there's one on there at this moment. That PSC group has a standing link to the Redress site, where Atzmon's articles often appear - Redress is notoriously antisemitic, yet the Reading PSC (and by extension the Aberystwyth PSC, which shares its webspace) blatantly pimps it.
Read the whole thing.

Jews can be and are anti-Semites. And of course it gives non-Jewish haters of Israel credibility when they can point to a Jew who agrees with them. "We can't be anti-Semitic if Jews think the same thing we do."

Its a load of palpable BS. John Mearsheimer found his Jewish Uncle Tom. But it doesn't validate his theory the Jewish Lobby is keeping peace from arriving in the Middle East. His endorsement of Gilad Atzmon's medieval anti-Semitic rant shows him in his true colors.

Its been nice knowin' ya, John! Bye!

For someone who links to white supremacists, and toxic Islamophobic hate sites himself this is the biggest pile of hogwash I ever read here. I could hardly believe my eyes! Are you serious? You owe the Professor an apology.

POT. KETTLE. BLACK.

Do not be a hypocrite Carl. You have zero credence complaining about anti semitism, John Mearsheirmer, who by the way, didn't approve of Gilad Atzmon's beliefs, wrote about certain things Gilad said. Stop smearing him.

In fact, you and Gilad Atzmot have more in common with each other.

You owe Professor Mearsheimer an apology. Max Blumenthal too for calling him a self hating Jew. A self hating Jew is someone like you.

Oh and by the way,

and co-author of "The Israel Lobby," John J. Mearsheimer.

Meirsheimer's and Walt's thesis is becoming mainstream in America.

Obama may well drop out, all well and good if Samantha Power takes the helm.

More hypocricy

Jeffery Goldberg has also expressed shock and disgust at Pamela Geller, yet you didn't see that as newsworthy. So why is this newsworthy? YOu cannot selectively use Goldberg when you like, to make a point. I'd like to know what Jeffrey Goldberg thinks of you. Any ideas? How about we ask Charles Johnson?

Chamya, the well-poisoning fantasies that demonic Jews invented the Holocaust to enable the Zionist wing of the Elders of Zion get their filthy hands on gentile money discredits accompanying arguments en toto; there's no need to debate each and every delusion, distortion, and calumny of the Jew-baiters inciting hatred against us--whether it's from the cracked pots of moserim or you or Walt or Mearsheimer or millions if it comes to that. Whether anti-Jewish contempt and fear becomes mainstream in the United States (as in Nazi Germany) or not--Jew baiters are Jew baiters.

In America, of course, so far, Arab funded and transmitted anti-Jewish slanders have failed to move a majority of Americans, an overwhelming majority, from their support of the Jewish state against Palestinian backwardness and savagery.

At bottom these are simple problems: no terrorists, no terrorism. No anti-semites, no anti-semitism. It is up to Israel primarily in the short haul to shut down the Palestinians who align themselves with the littleHitlers, the Mearsheimers.

By all means necessary.

“nasty” is when you complain of hate, whilst propogating hate. That is “nasty”.

How can someone complain about Gilad Atzmon’s anti semitism whilst promoting hate against others?

Check out the 132 page report on Islamophobia, all the people there are promoted at this site, and Carl has the gall to complain about Jew hatred. He and Atzmon are two sides of the same coin, just ask Charles Johnson what he thinks of Carl, if you think I am biased.


Sparky the wonder dog,

Please do not play the victim, or is that your guilty conscience showing? Arab’s don’t invent propoganda against Jews in the US, that is what the Stormfront crowd do. We don’t do that. But I’ll tell who does spend $42 million in demonising Islam and Muslims, In the 132 page report below, the guilty are all ZIONISTS. Nearly all orthodox Jews, some Christian Zionists, but they're all Zionists. Which means, this is your guilty conscience speaking.

Truth stands out clear from lies. As you will soon see, anything built on a lie topples. That you need to work so hard to convince people, means you have no legitimate case.

Besides, Walt and Mearsheimers views are becoming mainstream. That has nothing to do with us. We don't try to control thoughts by paying whores to lie.

REPORT: $42 Million From Seven Foundations Helped Fuel The Rise Of Islamophobia In America

http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2011/08/26/304306/islamophobia-network/

Following a six-month long investigative research project, the Center for American Progress released a 130-page report today which reveals that more than $42 million from seven foundations over the past decade have helped fan the flames of anti-Muslim hate in America.

The report, titled “Fear Inc.: The Roots Of the Islamophobia Network In America,” lifts the veil behind the hate, follows the money, and identifies the names of foundations who have given money, how much they have given, and who they have given to:

The Man Behind the Anti-Shariah Movement
By ANDREA ELLIOTT
Published: July 30, 2011
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/31/us/31shariah.html?pagewanted=all
In fact, it is the product of an orchestrated drive that began five years ago in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, in the office of a little-known lawyer, David Yerushalmi, a 56-year-old Hasidic Jew with a history of controversial statements about race, immigration and Islam.

Europe's Right-Wing Populists Find Allies in Israel

By Charles Hawley

Islamophobic parties in Europe have established a tight network, stretching from Italy to Finland. But recently, they have extended their feelers to Israeli conservatives, enjoying a warm reception from members of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition. Some in Israel believe that the populists are Europe's future.

Yonatan,

Better she should criticize me than stick a bomb in her burkha.

Interesting how she keeps citing Chuckles the Clown. Does anyone read him anymore?

Carl

How magnamanious of you to save the community from a suicide bombing. Truly, worthy of a medal in bravery.

When all else fails, resort to ad hominem attacks.


Interesting how she keeps citing Chuckles the Clown. Does anyone read him anymore?

What is interesting, is how you ignored all the other sources I posted above, and picked on "chuckles the clown".


What is also interesting is that Charles Johnson's readership GREW after he parted ways with radical right (read radical Zionists)

Not only in numbers but in quality.

But the most interesting thing is that an Islamophobe like Charles Johnson saw the error of his ways, and it was your crowd that helped him do it.

What is also interesting is that despite the best efforts of your crowd to demonise Islam by spending millions all your aims have failed.

kinda like putting lipstick on a pig,


and Yonaton, and Sparky will of course, not respond to the links I posted, but skulk away as always.

and ShyGuy is probably getting ready to go to Norway, for his brothers trial, all the scum congregates here,

and Carl since you're returning to Israel, take the trash with you, (Geller, Spencer, Sclussul, Yarushalmi, and the rest of your industry)
