‘Lib Dem Cowardice over Jenny Tonge and Jewish Racism
Some of
you will recall how Jenny Tonge was forced to resign from the Liberal Democrats
because at a meeting she chaired, an Orthodox Rabbi from the anti-Zionist Neturei
Karta sect blamed Reform Rabbi Stephen Wise in America in 1933 for declaring a Boycott
of Nazi Germany. Liberal Democrats Suspend British Peer for
Supporting Palestinian Rights
In fact
the Rabbi was not only stupid but historically wrong. Wise did his best to stop the Jewish Boycott of
Nazi Germany, alongside the Zionists who reached a trade agreement with the Nazis
(Ha’avara) in August 1933. The pressure
for a Boycott came from the Jewish working class in America and elsewhere,
alongside the international labour movement.

It was
both the Zionist movement and the Jewish bourgeoisie who vehemently opposed the
Boycott. Wise in 1933 went along with a Boycott
only to sabotage its implementation when the time arose. The real leader of the Boycott Samuel
Untermeyer in the United States spoke of Wise as ‘the
kingpin of mischief-makers whose support for Boycott depended on the audience
he was addressing.’ But
on August 14th 1933, Wise was sufficiently stung by Untermeyer’s
criticism to declare his support for the Boycott when addressing the Prague
Jewish community. [Edwin Black, The Transfer
Agreement, pp. 276-7]

As Untermeyer
said of Wise ‘You cannot put out a fire…
by just looking on.’ He called on the AJC’s members to ‘instruct these false leaders in no uncertain terms as to the stand
they must take… or resign their offices.’

event the Boycott had nothing to do with the Holocaust and everything to do
with the war on Russia in June 1941.

presided over an event at which Israel was compared to Islamic State, and the
Jews were even blamed for their own genocide?”

If Davies or the other hypocrites and ignoramuses had knew
anything about the Holocaust or Jewish religious orthodoxy then they would have realised that the idea
that the Jews who died in the Holocaust were being punished for their own sins
is a common one amongst the religious Orthodoxy – both Zionist and anti-Zionist. No less than the former Sephardic Chief Rabbi
of Israel, Ovadia Yosef said in a sermon that:

‘Behold I will
send for many fishers and after will I send for many hunters. And they the
hunters shall hunt them” — that will be the Jews — “from every
mountain and from every hill and from out of the holes of the rocks.” If
that doesn’t describe what Hitler did in the Holocaust — you can’t see that.’
In other words Hitler was sent by god as a
hunter to drive the Jews to Israel. Yet Zionist groups rushed to support him. Why? Because he was, in addition to being an anti-Semite a strong supporter of Israel.

Ovadia Yosef didn’t only confine his comments to the Holocaust though. In 5 of Ovadia Yosef’s most controversial quotations Rabbi Yosef also explained
the real reasons for Hurricane Katrina.
It was a
divine punishment for godlessness and American support for the
disengagement from Gaza:

“Goyim were born only to serve us.
Without that, they have no place in the world – only to serve the People of
Israel.”
Warming to his theme, the good rabbi explained of non-Jews that:
“In Israel, death has no dominion over them… With gentiles,
it will be like any person – they need to die, but [God] will give them
longevity. Why? Imagine that one’s donkey would die, they’d lose their money.

So the
attack on Jenny Tonge was particularly hypocritical as the Zionists certainly
are aware that there is a large strand in Orthodox Jewry which holds that the Jews
brought the Holocaust on themselves because of their sinfulness.

You may think that Ovadia Yosef was just one made Jewish Rabbi but you’d be wrong. Yosef was a man who could and did break government coalitions in Israel, because he was the spiritual head of Shas, the main Sephardic party in the Knesset. Today they have 7 seats and are represented in the governing coalition of Netanyahu. If they were to pull out the coalition would fall. It is bigots such as this on whom Israel’s governing coalition rests.
