Israel/Zionism See other Israel/Zionism Articles Title: What Is It with Conservatives and Jews? South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem is a conservative hero. Her CPAC speech was well received. Yet she doesn’t hesitate to pass legislation that turns the First Amendment into a hate crime. She has just had a law passed that turns “anti-semitism” into a hate crime. She says the law defines anti-semitism and will serve as the model for other states to follow. Governor Noem herself engages in hate speech. She says Joe Biden and Kamala Harris “suck” and she wants to humiliate them. If she said “Jews suck and I want to humiliate them,” under her own law she would probably be guilty of a hate crime. And if not, close to it. Governor Noem apparently doesn’t realize, along with many other people, that erasing the First Amendment means that any protected ethnicity can define hate speech as any words they claim to experience as “painful.” Ultimately, this will mean that they, as individuals, cannot be charged with a crime. South Africa’s experience with the International Court of Justice shows how difficult it is to charge the Israeli government with a crime even when Israel is committing genocide. The Israel Lobby long ago defined anti-semitism. It is any criticism, true or false, of a Jew or of Israel. For example, to protest Israel’s slaughter or genocide of Palestinians is anti-semitic. To even report, quoting their own words, Israeli government officials and rabbis calling for the murder of Palestinian women and children and for the extinction of Palestinians is anti-semitism. If you can’t complain about mass murder, or even report the words of those calling for it, what can you complain about? Recently three presidents of Ivy League universities, all female and one black, were called before the US Congress and scolded for allowing their students to protest Israel’s slaughter of Palestinians. The three women were guilty of permitting students to have First Amendment rights and were treated as if they had organized the protests themselves. The black female president of Harvard had to resign. In the UK, University of London students were suspended for their pro-Palestine protests. www.youtube.com/watch? http://v=j9JxJBCujog">www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9JxJBCujog I find it extraordinary that Jews alone among all ethnicities can control what can be said about them. Curiously, it is progressive and woke students at progressive institutions, not conservatives, who are defending both their First Amendment right and expression of moral conscience. The Independent Institute, a conservative/libertarian institute that thoughtfully analyzes economic and social policies with which I have been associated in some way or the other for many years, inexplicably chose the moment of Israel’s announced policy of bombing the Palestinians out of existence and completing the theft of their country to publish a book, The New American Anti-Semitism by Benjamin Ginsberg. Ginsberg writes that anti-semitic progressives are a threat. He urges conservatives and Jews to stop their gifts to progressive universities and to “form new political alliances, particularly with evangelical Christians.” It is remarkable to see the Independent Institute in favor of an alliance between Jews, conservatives, and Christians against the First Amendment. It is also an attack on the 14th Amendment’s requirement of equality under law. Currently, a hate crime, consisting only of words, can only be committed against a black, a Jew, and a sexual pervert. Anything can be said about white gentiles and Palestinians, who have no recourse. The real threat is not anti-semitism. The real threat is the destruction of free speech and the rise of status based law that protects some chosen ethnicities and persecutes others. What is really needed is an alliance against those who are destroying the foundations of truth, freedom, and accountable government. The growing limits on free speech are already damaging scholarship and science. Do we want to live in a world where “truth” consists of controlled narratives that serve the interests of the ruling elites? It is unfortunate that South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem has turned out to be just another politician willing to sacrifice the First Amendment and American foreign policy to Israel. Moreover, it is depressing that she is so uninformed that she cannot connect her enthusiasm for halting the inflow of immigrant-invaders with her unbridled support for Jews. Governor Noem stresses that she “called on every governor to follow my lead and send troops to the border, and I offered to personally drive more razor wire down to Texas in the back of my truck.” Yet, she seems unaware that principal among the NGOs recruiting and financing the overrunning of America by “immigrant- invaders” is the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, of which the current director of the US Department of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas, himself a Jew, was a board member. www.paulcraigroberts.org/...2/18/the-genocide-of-the- west/">http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/...the-genocide-of-the-west/ and www.paulcraigroberts.org/2024/02/06/america-is- http://undergoing-">www.paulcraigroberts.org/...06/america-is-undergoing- genocide/ So here we have Governor Noem pimping for Jews as she complains about the immigrant-invaders the Jews are helping to bring into our country. It is really quite astounding that a governor, a conservative hope, cannot see the contradiction or inconsistency in her positions. What it looks like is that politicians simply grandstand on issues that they don’t bother to understand and, thereby, end up with inconsistent positions. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
