Anti-Zionism Is Nothing More Than Anti-Semitism
Rush Limbaugh And Zionist Indifference to Anti-Semitism
Although supporters of Israel are always quick to attack critics of the Jewish state as vulgar anti-Semites, the state of Israel and Zionists are no strangers to alliances and friendships with anti-Semitism.
Englishman Chaim Weizmann, one of the founding fathers of Zionism and Israel’s first president, played on the anti-Jewish prejudice of many British public office holders in his efforts to secure British support for the establishment of a Jewish state. Weizmann often told his listeners that a Jewish state would mean less Jews in Great Britain; something naturally desired by anti-Semitic persons.
Israel and Zionists have never been uniformly opposed to anti-Semitism, just anti-Zionism. All they care about is one's support for Israel - never mind the reason and never mind if that person harbors anti-Semitic views. That is why Zionists have an alliance with the American Christian Right - many of whom are anti-Semitic but only support Israel because they believe that the Jews must control the Holy Land in order for Jesus to return. The story does not end well for the Jews (2/3 dead, 1/3 converted to Christianity), but Zionists do not mind as long as it means support for Israel in the here and now.
If any critic of Israel were to hold the exact same views of the Christian Right they would be savagely attacks for bigotry, but Israeli leaders do not mind hugging anti-Semitic, pro-Zionists Christians Rightists.
It is all about Zionism and anti-Semitism is. at best, a secondary concern and primary an accusation to be thrown at any honest critic of Israel.
Recent news should not be surprising in this light:
In an official meeting with Israeli diplomats, Netanyahu orders his diplomats to ignore and disregard the blatant anti-Semitism in Husni Mubarak's state media because the Egyptian government is playing a "positive role."
So if Egypt is building a wall against Gaza and also taking part in the collective punishment of Palestinians then all is forgiven in the field of anti-Semitism. And if Egypt starts to criticize Israel, Israel and its Zionist supports will start to highlight Egypt anti-Semitism.
Zionists call this principles.
