Philip Giraldi: Purging the Palestinians
05/06/2016
ED Noor: In
history, religion, and political science, a purge is the removal of
people who are considered undesirable by those in power from a
government, from another organization, from their team owners, or from
society as a whole. A group undertaking such an effort is labeled as
purging itself. Political purges are not new; we have seen them
taking place since man began to engage in any form of self government.
However, there is MUCH more to this current situation in Great Britain.
It is, besides an attack on Corbyn and the Labour party clandestinely
organized by Tony Blair, a freedom of speech issue as to how
vociferously one supports the criminal state of Israel. Philip Giraldi
breaks it down somewhat.
“We Jews, we, the destroyers, will
remain the destroyers for ever. Nothing that you will do will meet our
needs and demands. We will for ever destroy because we need a world of
our own…” ~ Maurice Samuels, You Gentiles. 1942.
Political purges are not new. Trotsky
was purged from the Soviet Communist Party and Ernst Rohm was purged by
the Nazis. Currently we are witnessing the spectacle of “progressive”
groups ostensibly dedicated to the cause of Palestinian rights turning
on long time advocates of that cause because they are not viewed as
sufficiently engaged in demonstrating that they are not anti-Semitic.
Indeed, demonstrating one’s anti-anti-Semitic credentials seems to have
become a sine qua non for establishing the bona fides of any friend of
Palestine, apparently more important than actually doing anything for
the Palestinians, who have been losing land continuously to the Israelis
and regularly getting killed whenever they resist.
That the Palestinians have been
victimized by the self-designated Jewish State funded by Jewish
organizations and enabled through Jewish manipulation of America’s
legislature and media would appear to be an irrelevancy to the
self-righteous standard bearers adhering staunchly to what they choose
to describe as their “anti-racist principles.” In a recent disagreeable
incident involving the Students for Justice in Palestine at Stanford
University a Nakba survivor Palestinian woman speaker was actually disinvited
because it was feared that she might verbally challenge the legitimacy
of the Zionist occupation of her former home. One wonders if the
students would have censored an anti-Apartheid speaker from South Africa
in a similar fashion in the 1980s?
