Bloodthirsty Liberal

Here’s why.

Because for the past seven years I have watched the march of Jew hatred form across the world, and it is largely positioned in leftist locations. Like academia, like journalism, like trade unions. Among minorities. Among people that Jews and Israelis have a long history of sticking their necks out to help… for decades. Here’s the latest insult:

South Africa’s largest trade union seeks Israel boycott
By Cnaan Liphshiz, Haaretz Correspondent

South Africa’s largest trade union federation will launch a campaign against “the Israeli occupation of Arab lands” this week, demanding that Pretoria impose a boycott on all Israeli goods and break diplomatic relations. South African Intelligence Minister Ronnie Kasrils, who is Jewish, told Haaretz that he actively supported the initiative - which contradicts the policy of his own cabinet.

Can you even believe this???

The president of the Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu), Willy Madisha, announced the launching of the campaign last week in Johannesburg, calling on the government to cease all diplomatic relations with Israel after its attacks on Palestinian leaders.

“The best way to have Israel comply with United Nations resolutions is to pressure it by a diplomatic boycott such as the one imposed on apartheid South Africa,” Madisha said. Cosatu belongs to a recently-formed coalition of organizations operating under the banner “End The Occupation.”

Of course, they’re not all lunatics:

Kasrils’ anti-Israeli organization Not In My Name belongs to the coalition working toward an embargo on Israel. This runs contrary to South Africa’s official stance, and to President Thabo Mbeki’s decision to strengthen trade ties with Israel. Mbeki, who heads the ANC ruling party, even appeared as a guest at Israel’s Independence Day celebrations in Durban last month.

Remember Durban? Durban is the city in South Africa that hosted the August 2001 UN conference on racism. It is the place where, under the umbrella of the United Nations, copies of Mein Kampf were sold, banners of hooked-nosed, bloody-fanged Jews were paraded around the streets, and Jewish individuals were assaulted. To their credit, the Bush administration pulled the US out of the conference due to the extreme antisemitism on display.

Well, I can’t read any more of the article because I feel too sick. Shame, shame, shame on them. I hope that everyone who sides with the political left will re-think their position in light of the on-going anti-semitic onslaught that they support.
