There is nothing more guaranteed to anger apologists for Israel’s works and its soft-left ‘critics’ then any comparison with the Nazis. This is ‘insulting to Jews’. It is defined by the European Monotoring Committee as ‘anti-Semitism’ – something adopted by Dennis MacShanes joke of a Parliamentary Committee on anti-Semitism.
I therefore decided, in the interests of fairness, to put up a few photos showing how tolerant and liberal Israeli society is. Use of Nazi epithets is, in fact, very common in Israeli society and among Zionists and it doesn’t take much for one Zionist to accuse another of being a ‘nazi’ or anti-semitic.
Many of these photos were taken in Hebron and they have been daubed by the settlers there. But in case you think, oh well, they are just a few nutcases, remember that that war criminal, Ehud Barak – leader of the Israeli Labour Party – insisted at the time when the Oslo Accords were still on a life support machine – that the settlers in Hebron had to stay. So these Judaeo Nazis [as the late Yeshayahu Leibowitz, winner of the Israel Prize and philosophy professor at the Hebrew University, Jerusalem called them] are there courtesy of the Israeli Labour Party and Histadrut.
