    The memory of the Holocaust is in jeopardy. We need Jewish universities to offer graduate degrees, masters and doctorates, in Holocaust studies.
    Recently, the New Jersey State Holocaust Commission added 9/11 to the Holocaust and Genocide curriculum. The events of 9/11 should be observed and remembered separately. Soon, there will no remembrance of the Holocaust.
    Holocaust and Genocide will become only genocide and the Holocaust will only be a date in history. Holocaust survivors, please speak out before the memory of the Holocaust vanishes.

    He's a public speaker, always ensuring that it won't be forgotten, and it won't. You fell for what the rabbi stated. Dumbass.

    Default California goes Jewish!

    California State Assembly passed a resolution urging state educational institutions to more aggressively crack down on criticism of the State of Israel on campuses, which the resolution defines as “anti-Semitism.” The anti-democratic resolution is the latest step in the broader campaign to stifle and suppress dissent on California's increasingly volatile campuses.

    The California State Assembly is the lower house of the state legislature, consisting of 80 members. The resolution—H.R. 35: “Relative to anti-Semitism”—was passed by a vote of 66 to 80, including a majority of both Republicans and Democrats in the Assembly.
    The resolution was drafted by Republican Linda Halderman and passed without public discussion. The vote on the resolution came when most students were between semesters and away from their campuses.
    The resolution (available here) uses the classic trick employed by defenders of Israel’s Zionist regime: lumping together any criticism of the Israeli state’s policies or of the US government’s support for them with racist attacks on Jews. the bulk of the resolution is dedicated to defining criticism of the state of Israel as “anti-Semitism.” It lists the following as examples of “anti-Semitism”: • “language or behavior [that] demonizes and delegitimizes Israel;”
    • “speakers, films, and exhibits” that indicate that “Israel is guilty of heinous crimes against humanity such as ethnic cleansing and genocide;”
    describing Israel as a “racist” or “apartheid” state;
    • “student-and faculty-sponsored boycott, divestment, and sanction campaigns against Israel;”
    • “denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination;”
    • “applying double standards by requiring of Israel a behavior not expected or demanded of any other democratic nation;” and
    • “actions of student groups that encourage support for terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah.”

    So you ADMIT you are trolling, even if trolling for a different fish.

    This is a forum, and it's a place to discuss and debate things, NOT for the posting of one's opinions or other crap, solely in the hopes of being picked up by a search engine.

    Default The Cry Holocaust firsters.

    The boys who cry “Holocaust”

    The same neocon hawks who lied us into Iraq are using the ultimate argument-stopper to push war with Iran

    Gary Kamiya


    Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and neonconservative William Kristol (Credit: Reuters/Gage Skidmore)

    We’ve been through this before. As one of the most disastrous wars in our history is coming to an inglorious end, the same neoconservative hawks who dreamed it up are agitating for a new war that would make Iraq look like the invasion of Grenada — and using the ultimate trump card in American politics to silence debate over it.
    When hawks begin beating the drums for war in the Middle East, Israel is usually a big reason why. That was true in the run-up to the war in Iraq, and it is doubly true with the current hysteria over Iran. Despite disingenuous claims to the contrary, the only reason the U.S. is even talking about war with Iran is Israel. As the invaluable M.J. Rosenberg, who knows the working of the Israel lobby as only a former card-carrying member can, notes, “It is impossible to find a single politician or journalist advocating war with Iran who is not a neocon or an AIPAC cutout. (They’re often both.)”
    Ever since the International Atomic Energy Agency released its overhyped, old-news report on Iran’s nuclear program, Israel’s amen corner in the U.S. has been loudly calling for war.
    If American politics did not contain an enormous blind spot, no one would pay any attention to what these discredited ideologues have to say. The Iraq war they championed turned out to be one of the biggest foreign-policy disasters in U.S. history. Their ignorant and Islamophobic view of the Middle East is as breathtaking as their bland willingness to commit America to yet another ruinous war against a Muslim country, this time one four times larger than Iraq and with more than twice as many people. They have a demonstrated track record of complete failure.
    Yet these incompetent militarists are still taken seriously. And the reason is simple: They purport to be supporters of Israel. In American politics, you can get away with even the most cracked war-mongering as long as you claim to be “pro-Israel.” And the ultimate get-out-of-jail-free card for anything having to do with Israel is the Holocaust.

    Artur, I think I'm just going to merge all of your threads into one, based on your own stated purpose for being here. Then I'll place them in their very own forum, and set that forum to be excluded for allowing bots. You'll be famous!!

    Default Presbyterians do the RIGHT THING!

    Presbyterians dump companies they say are tied to Palestinian occupation

    By Shelby Lin Erdman and Ben Brumfield, CNN
    updated 9:22 AM EDT, Sun June 22, 2014


    Presbyterians protest Israeli politics




    STORY HIGHLIGHTS

    • In a 310-303 vote, the church decides to pull $21 million in investments
    • It is divesting from Caterpillar, Hewlett-Packard and Motorola Solutions
    • Jewish groups, and some Presbyterians, condemn the decision
    • The church is keeping other investments in Israel, while investing in Palestinian territories, too




    (CNN) -- The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A) is pulling millions of dollars in investments out of three U.S. companies tied to the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories.
    In a close vote at its annual assembly in Detroit on Friday, the church voted 310-303 to divest $21 million from Caterpillar, Hewlett-Packard and Motorola Solutions.
    The church says Caterpillar supplies products to Israel that are used to destroy Palestinian homes, Hewlett-Packard provides logistics and technology to help enforce the naval blockade of Gaza, and Motorola Solutions provides military and surveillance systems in illegal Israeli settlements.
    But immediately after the vote, church leaders said the decision was not a judgment against Israel. "In no way is this a reflection for our lack of love for our Jewish sisters and brothers," Moderator Heath Rada said.

    <cite class="expCaption">Leaders pray for peace with Pope</cite>
    <cite class="expCaption">Becky Reflects on the Pope's Mideast Tour</cite>
    <cite id="cite45" class="expCaption">Photos: Pope visits Holy Land</cite>


    The approved divestment proposal included a preface underscoring the denomination's longstanding commitment to peace in the region and the suffering on both sides.
    "We recognize the complexity of the issues, the decades-long struggle, the pain suffered and inflicted by policies and practices of both the Israeli government and the Palestinian entities," it said.
    The church also stressed it still supports Israel and that the vote was not connected to the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, an international campaign to punish the Jewish state over the occupation of Palestinian lands and other hotly contested issues.
    Vote stirs passionate responses
    But some Jewish organizations, even those that support a two-state solution to the ongoing crisis in the region, see the decision as a direct result of and support for the BDS movement.
    The American Jewish Committee (AJC) says the decision undermines the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.
    "It is a very sad day for Presbyterian-Jewish relations when church leaders from across the U.S. align with the international Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement," Rabbi Noam Marans, the AJC's director of Interreligious and Intergroup Relations, said in a statement.
    "This is an affront to all who are committed to a peaceful resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict," Marans said.
    Rabbi Rick Jacobs, the president of the Union for Reform Judaism, issued a statement after the vote calling it "a preference for a policy of isolation, rather than one of engagement."
    "Of course, we will continue to partner with our allies within the church who are committed to a two-state solution, reject the effort of the BDS campaign to delegitimize Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state, and work toward a just and fair solution to enable the Palestinians to achieve the state that they deserve," Jacobs said.
    The Anti-Defamation League called the move "out of step" with the majority of Presbyterians in churches across the United States.
    The ADL's National Director Abraham J. Foxman said the decision also creates an atmosphere of open hostility."
    "This resolution sends a painful message to American Jews and threatens the long-standing relationship between the Jewish community and the national Presbyterian Church with whom we have worked closely on many issues of mutual concern."
    Some Presbyterians are condemning the vote, as well.
    The Rev. Katharine Rhodes Henderson, the president of New York's Auburn Seminary, is calling on Presbyterians opposed to the decision to reach out to their local Jewish communities to try to repair relationships following the controversial vote.
    Henderson said the vote "sets back the work toward a just and peaceful resolution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict."
    "It hurts the Presbyterian place at the table for peacemaking, and creates barriers not just between Presbyterians and Jews, and Israelis and Palestinians, but also within the Presbyterian body."
    Palestinian supporters of the BDS movement, meantime, said they are pleased with the church's divestment decision and see it as a sign the movement is gaining momentum in United States.
    Omar Barghouti, for one, calls the vote a "sweet victory."
    "Presbyterian supporters of Palestinian rights have not only solidly introduced divestment from Israel's occupation to the U.S. mainstream, they have given the Palestinian people real hope in the face of the relentless cruelty of Israel's regime of occupation, settler colonialism and apartheid," said Barghouti, a founding committee member of the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel.
    Not a snap decision
    The denomination, the largest Presbyterian body in the United States, says it still supports the Jewish state.
    "We have significant investments in Israel," said church spokeswoman Kathy Francis. And the church is keeping them.
    The decision was about morality, not politics, she said. There are many Palestinian Christians in the occupied territories that the church is concerned about and obligated to support.
    Francis said the church no longer wanted to profit from investing in companies that have a hand in the destruction of people's homes and lives. Instead, she said, it will now shift some of its investments into economic development programs in the Palestinian territories.
