I have only one thing to say about this Women’s March. As a Jew, I always wondered how the Germans didn’t oppose Hitler. The answer? He aligned the economic issues with Jew hatred so people confused the two. Blurring the lines between feminism and antisemitism? Same story again!
As Sarsour takes the stage and promotes BDS to cheers from the crowd; that is the same demagogy we saw in Germany. “Oh you’re suffering financially? Let’s scapegoat Jews!” “Oh you support feminism? Then you can’t support the Jewish State!” Both vile rhetoric we *should* reject!
One difference. Today, we, the jews, me, we won’t sit back and let it happen again. This time around; we can/will stand up for ourselves to antisemites like Sarsour and the rest of the thugs because; this time we have our home to come to. As much as they hate it, we have Israel.
And of course, much like back then; there are Jews who support the women’s march because the lines are blurred and they, like the Jews back then, don’t realize how deep the hatred runs. If you’re a Jew who supports boycott of the Jewish State, you are a confused individual.
This comes to no surprise to anyone who studies history. It’s a different piggyback but it’s the same pattern. The only thing that makes me sad is just how fast antisemitism has gone mainstream in the United States. Tragic, and equally tragic that most of you can’t recognize it.
Bottom line?
Feminism? Equality for women across the board? Obviously good
Boycotting the Jewish State/blatantly opposing the fundamental pillar of Judaism that is Zionism? Bad
Connecting the two “ism”s? The tactic of the women’s march organizers. Same tactic in Germany 40’s.
