There's a scene in my novel, "The Nuremberg Papers" (2024) in which a Holocaust survivor explains to the protagonist, private investigator Mike Levinas, that antisemitism didn't just disappear after World War II and that the Soviet support for Arafat must be seen as just a continuation of the world's oldest hatred I feel like I've been channeling this character's energy for a while now

If one massacres 1,000 people and plunge them into a massive war, where young people are called up to fight for years, you get right wing young people It’s a lesson. Don’t murder 1,000 people in a single day, don’t massacre young people at a music festival and force their brothers and sisters to arms for years of grueling war If you murder people and all their families have to go off to war then the young generation will become steel and they will vote “right wing” because you have turned them into steel through the fire of war Being a nice progressive lefty is a privilege of not having to shoulder a rifle to defend one’s home ; put people under rocket fire for years and they will vote accordingly
In most countries, young voters are more left-wing than their right-wing elders. In Israel it's the reverse.

Well, you @AlanRMacLeod made a map which is not true. Slovenia did not participate in a “mass walkout”. Correct your map.
I made a map of the 77 countries that participated in a mass walkout at the United Nations before Benjamin Netanyahu's speech. What do you notice?

Albanese, in my mind, is no different from the white supremacists who peddled Holocaust denial pamphlets for years before the Internet came along The fact that she's seen as an intellectual and an outspoken hero by "Free Palestine" tells you all you need to know
Holocaust Distortion from U.N. “Expert”: Francesca Albanese claims Jews in Nazi death camps “were called Muslims.” Antisemitism targets “Semitic peoples” and “not just discrimination against Jews.” Even in Nazi death camps: She cannot name Jew-hatred without replacing the Jews.

Not remotely a serious person. Just getting the buzzwords out there to appease the angry mob
In an interview with GQ about his political activism, actor Adam Brody goes on the record about his stance on Palestine: "Put me down as thinking it's a genocide. Put me down as wanting a free Palestine. It's awful that it's taken so much death and misery, but it does feel like it's reaching a breaking point that it should have a while ago." gq.visitlink.me/XbxgCV

Amnesty Ireland : The case of Nazi agent Helmut Clissmann In 1934, German scholar Helmut Clissmann was sent to Ireland to foster academic exchange programs between Ireland and Nazi Germany. In 1938, he married Elizabeth 'Budge' Mulcahy. While in Ireland, Clissmann fostered ties with the IRA. During WW2, Clissmann became a Nazi agent. He was imprisoned by the British for several years after the war. Eventually, Irish Minister for Foreign Affairs Seán MacBride intervened and granted Clissmann permission to settle in Ireland permanently. Clissmann went on to become a pharmaceutical executive and the founder of Amnesty Ireland See: independent.ie/regionals/sli… irishtimes.com/news/death-of…

"Free Palestine" is politics as spectacle, style over substance, slogans over policy The Macklemore Effect, where everyone gets their 15 minutes

I'm sorry (actually I'm not), but when your movement's main achievements for the week are a bunch of authoritarian regimes and dictatorships walking out on a speech (hello, North Korea!), Susan Sarandon & Hannah Einbinder getting arrested, and Macklemore announcing a show in Dublin, you might want to rethink whether you're putting style over substance and not achieving anything substantive at all Just a thought!

The UN is a country club for dictators and autocrats. Now, international cooperation even with our enemies is sometimes necessary, but we should have no illusions about about the intentions of many UN "experts" and bodies.
Aside from the almost comically outrageous ‘Jews were called Muslims in Nazi concentration camps’ comment, Francesca goes on a long tirade here about the etymology of the term ‘antisemitism’ that is factually incorrect from start to finish. Every word is wrong and that is a matter of linguistic fact, not opinion. A quick Google search proves that. This woman is a brazen liar and it’s a damning indictment on the UN that she remains in her position.

Don’t buy Jewish products Don’t go to Jewish businesses Don’t consume Jewish art or patronize Jewish artists Don’t employ Jews Don’t talk to Jews Make lists to make all this easier and “raise awareness” What does this sound like? It’s giving 30’s and 40’s Germany!
There's a very specific reason why the most fervent 'Paddystinians' are saying that Irish footballers who play against Israel will be permanently "stained" by doing so They, like other rancid antisemites in history, believe that interacting with Jews is akin to exposing oneself to a disease or a virus That is what undergirds so much of their antizionist activism and boycotts. Their desire to remain "pure" and "untainted" If this isn't medieval antisemitism, then I don't know what is!

I cannot believe we are here and I don't think people realise how serious this situation is. Deliberate lies to distort and diminish the Holocaust, now accepted by many, are leading us on a path to ruin. Jew-hate is a weapon and it's being wielded against our democracies.
So you’re denying the testimony of Primo Levi in addition to going against what is outlined in German on the Wikipedia page you posted yourself? I think Holocaust distortion is very serious actually, so no I won’t ‘calm down’. Francesca is falsely claiming that starved Jews lying on the ground were nicknamed Muselmann because the Nazis persecuted ‘Semitic people’ broadly not just Jews. There is no such thing as Semitic race of people, rather there is a group of Semitic languages (including Arabic, Hebrew, Amharic, and Aramaic). Etymologically, the term antisemitism denotes hatred of Jews alone and antisemitic Nazi laws targeted Jews alone. This is something the Nazis themselves confirmed (see screenshot below). They were, quote, ‘at great pains to assure Arabs that the antisemitic policies of the Nazis was directed solely against the Jews and not against them’. What Francesca has said in this regard is unequivocally false, she is brazenly lying. Would you care to address any of these points? Will you criticise Francesca for lying about the etymology of antisemitism and distorting the facts of the Holocaust? Or will you insist on continuing to play smoke and mirrors?
