Enabling Hatred of the Jewish People
By Eileen F. Toplansky
Posted by Ruth King
In Viktor Frankl’s classic Man’s Search for Meaning he writes that “there are only two races – the decent and the indecent.”
No more proof is needed when one considers the events of October 7 and the ongoing animus of much of the world toward Israel.
The bestiality of the Islamic Jihadists continues unabated. The rabid hatred is truly difficult to fathom. The indifference to life, to creativity, and to progress defies the imagination.
But it is not a new story. In teaching about the evolution of the ancient Israelites, sacred writings emphasized that the ancient Canaanites were more brutal than any other people in the region. Prominent in Canaanite religious ritual was child sacrifice. In Deuteronomy 12:30-31, it states “Do not ask about their gods — burning their sons and daughters in sacrifice to their gods.” In essence, the Canaanites believed and taught others that their gods wanted and enjoyed cruelty toward human beings. In fact, the ancient Israelites were warned not to assimilate to the Canaanite ways but instead retain their differences and follow the Ten Commandments.
Jewish people believed that they owed G-d a debt for the miracles He had performed for the early Israelites. Consequently, they became a people devoted to morality and justice as taught by the Torah. In essence, Torah-loving people seek to do tzedakah u-mishpat -– righteousness and justice.
Fast forward to today when the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) is faced with an implacable foe coupled with a media that creates a myriad of lies about the IDF’s actions. Nonetheless, according to FrontPage magazine:
What does Israel do in Gaza? Does the IDF deliberately rape, torture, and murder Palestinian civilians, as Hamas did to the Israelis at the dance party and in the kibbutzim? Does the IDF take delight in killing, in as sadistic a way as possible, as many Gazan civilians as it can? No, of course not. The IDF tries instead, to minimize civilian casualties. It has no desire to harm the truly innocent. Unfortunately, Hamas wants to maximize those civilian casualties, and to exploit that result to undermine Israel’s standing in the world.
Whenever it can, the IDF warns civilians away from areas about to be targeted. These warnings are enormous undertakings. When the IDF had concluded that it was first going to concentrate its war-making in northern Gaza, it dropped 1.5 [sic] leaflets on that area, urging inhabitants to move south of the Wadi Gaza, so as to avoid the most intense fighting that was about to begin in the north. 900,000 Gazans ultimately heeded the warning, and headed south on the north-south corridor of Salah al-Din Street. Hamas fired on, and killed, some of the Gazans trying to move south, in order to keep their civilian shields trapped in the north. Later, when the IDF began to attack Hamas in the south, it dropped both leaflets, and sent emails, with maps included, that showed Gazans the precise areas in the south, in and around Khan Yunis, where the IDF would not be attacking, and that, therefore, they should move to for safety’s sake. It was the same with buildings — schools, apartment buildings, mosques — where the IDF was about to attack. The IDF messaged, emailed, telephoned, and used the ‘knock-on-the-roof’ technique to warn civilians living in or near those buildings soon to be targeted to leave them. Furthermore, Israeli pilots will call off an airstrike if they detect too many civilians near the target.
It is no wonder that British Colonel Richard Kemp has called the IDF ‘the most moral army in the world.’
Even as Israel grapples with the trauma that affects children and adults alike coupled with the loss of her soldiers — many in the prime of their lives – their youth are not taught to hate.
On the other hand, Arab children are continually taught to despise Jews. For years at the Palestinian Media Watch (PAL), founder Itamar Marcus has been documenting the schooling that Arab boys and girls receive and the indifference of the Western powers. See here and here. This video shows young Arab students shouting their vitriol. The teaching of contempt begins early in the indoctrination of loathing in which Arab children marinate.
Are they the lineal descendants of the Canaanites?
Contrast this Israeli mother who is willing to sacrifice herself to save the babies with this Arab family who is thrilled with their son’s phone conversation that he killed ten Israelis.
At the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, the UNRWA’s involvement in terrorist activities, in collaboration with Hamas is highlighted. Created in 1949, UNRWA actually keeps suspected terrorists on its payroll. In fact, the Israeli ambassador says that the “UN should be on trial as an accomplice to ‘hatred and murder.’”
‘The proceedings in The Hague demonstrate how the U.N. and its institutions have become weapons in service of terrorist organizations,’
‘The use of the Convention on the Prevention of Genocide against the Jewish state and in service of the Nazis of our time, Yahya Sinwar and Ismail Haniyeh, proves that there is no moral low that the U.N. has not descended to.’
As chronicled by Melanie Phillips,
Now we know that the agenda of Hamas and of Iran is very clear genocide; to destroy Israel, wipe out Jews, and from then, wipe out Christians and all unbelievers. We know that because they say so. But what’s been revealed by what’s happened is something much broader and much more concerning. It is, in short, a civilizational crisis. The depravity that we have seen in Israel at the hands of Hezbollah, of Hamas and beyond them, Iran. That depravity has put down roots in Britain, in Europe, in America, in Australia, [and] throughout the West.
In fact, Israel uncovered Hamas terror networks planning attacks in Europe.
In our own country, we see Barack Obama, Joe Biden and Antony Blinken scold Israel for defending herself.
But it is no wonder because “[d]uring Barack Obama’s presidency, relations between the United States and Israel, its closest ally in the Middle East, reached an all-time low. Obama appeased Israel’s mortal enemy Iran, allowed a one-sided, anti-Israel United Nations Security Council resolution to pass in the waning days of his administration, and released $221 million to the Palestinian Authority in his administration’s last hours. This was on top of the hundreds of millions of dollars that the Obama administration had previously bestowed on the Palestinians, which the Palestinian leaders largely used to fund terror and line their own pockets rather than for the benefit of their own people.”
Imam Alhajie Jallow, an imam in Wisconsin has posted that the Muslim brothers in Gaza are heroes. Jallow asserts that “By Allah, all of [the Jews] will be killed by Muslims. This is a promise from Allah and it is going to happen. They will all be killed, and on that day, the believers will rejoice in Allah’s victory.”
Caroline Glick exposes how “Israel Faces the International Lynch Mob.” No stranger to the horror of global antisemitism, she highlights the deplorable state of South Africa under the African National Congress (ANC) as it claims that Israel has committed genocide!
Even sports are not safe from the stench of antisemitism as the International Ice Hockey Federation has barred Israel from competing in its world championship events.
In fact, Matti Friedman demonstrates how the West has allowed itself to be “psychologically manipulated” as it absolutely refuses to terminate the cognitive war against itself and the Jewish people.
Of course, Muslim abhorrence of the Jews is inextricably linked to leftwing/communist beliefs as well as woke and DEI ideology. They are bedfellows, so it is no surprise that “Chinese state-controlled media outlets have been promoting pro-Hamas propaganda accusing Israel of targeting civilians, hindering the delivery of humanitarian aid, killing children, and being an occupying force in the region.” These are, however, all blatant lies.
Martin Luther King stated that “in the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.”
Knowing that the evil-doers have the West in their sights as well, every freedom loving individual must not be silent when it comes to Israel’s existential battle. Consider donating money, checking out other sites that aid Israel, speaking up, and publicizing the facts about the actions of the IDF.

Star Parker on Black abortion impact.
+++
"Keep far from a false charge, and do not kill the innocent and righteous, for I will not acquit the wicked.”
- Exodus 23:76
On the cusp of the March for Life, CURE has released its annual policy report, "The Impact of Abortion on the Black Community."
As the report states, Dobbs did not end the debate on abortion. Elected officials now have more responsibility than ever to address the widescale killing of the unborn. Pro-Life advocates have to wage a 50-state strategy to affirm and protect life.
Every day children of every race - but disproportionately black - are being killed by abortion in the most horrible ways imaginable. Pro-abortion advocates and their allies in the media seek to block exposure of this grisly reality. Too many governors, state attorneys general, and pro-abortion agency officials have no interest in investigating or regulating the abortion industry.
This report continues the work of CURE in examining the issue, as it informs the public, Congress, and state legislatures on the physical, legal, cultural, and economic harm abortion has caused to our nation, urging Congress and the states to take the initiative to protect unborn children to the maximum extent possible. You can find a summary of the report here, as well as the press release here.
Until the West out-bests the propagandist, get's ahead of the propagandist by beating them at their own game it will remain behind the 8 ball.
However, to beat the propagandist at their own game by becoming superior at propaganda carries significant risks.
Hitler allegedly once said 'to beat me, you become like me.'

Jews will not be safe until our propaganda war is better than theirs.
We are in a Propaganda War. It is time to blow the Shofar all over the world. We can do better. Opinion.
By Diane Weber Bederman
"If you go to war in your land against an adversary that oppresses you, you shall blow a teruah with the trumpets and be remembered before the Lord your God, and thus be saved from your enemies."
Since the rebirth of Israel in her legal historical and Biblical lands, she has not lost a war, not one, unlike America which has lost every war it has fought since WWII. And she will win the military war against Hamas.
But, today, that is not enough. Not in a world of social media. Israel must win the Propaganda War and she is losing that war badly in the 21st century. She can learn about winning propaganda wars from those Americans who are experts: the Russia Hoax and Biden computer, and DEI come to mind, and the term Islamophobia.
Just like the Nazis blamed the Jews, the world blamed Israel for her response to the October 7, 2023 massacre. Here is an example of one of many. In his January 6 opinion column in Le Journal de Montreal, Réjean Parent condemns Hamas’ October 7 massacre, but quickly claims Israel’s counter-terrorism operations against that very same threat, are “as barbaric as that of Hamas.”
This description of Israel's counter-terrorism, of course, is a lie based on nothing.
Jew hated has not changed over the millennia, especially since the Holocaust. Sadly, the Jewish response has not changed either.
There was no one to speak up for the Jews in Europe. A willful blindness. We were supposed to learn from that time about the danger of hate.
When it comes to the Jews, we never learn.
Islam is preaching the same hate as the Nazis and the world says nothing. Worse, the world stands with these people.
On September 16, 1919, Hitler issued his first written comment on the so-called Jewish Question. In the statement, he defined the Jews as a race and not a religious community, characterized the effect of a Jewish presence as a “race-tuberculosis of the peoples,” and identified the initial goal of a German government to be discriminatory legislation against Jews.
The “ultimate goal must definitely be the removal of the Jews altogether.”
Since the Jewish people have returned to their legal, historical and Biblical Jewish homeland of 3500 years, the call remains the same. Nothing has changed. The world continues to stand with the Jew haters.
For far too long we have heard “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free.” What does that really mean?
“From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will Be Free” is a rallying cry for terrorist groups and their sympathizers, from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) to Hamas, which called for Israel’s destruction in its original governing charter in 1988 and was responsible for the October 7, 2023 terror attack on Israeli civilians, murdering over 1,200 people in the single deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust.
It is also a common call-to-arms for pro-Palestinian Arab activists, especially student activists on college campuses. It calls for the establishment of a State of 'Palestine' from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, erasing the State of Israel and its people.
Another phrase “Globalize the Intifada” which uses the Arabic word for “uprising” or “shaking off,” encourages armed resistance and also calls for widespread violence against both Israelis and Jews across the globe.
Sounds a lot like the goals of the Nazis that the world ignored, until it was too late. America knew about the Holocaust and did nothing.
Never Forget?
Seems the Jew-hating propaganda machine is still going strong as it has for millennia.
The Jewish people, the State of Israel, have proven over and over that we can win any military war. But that is no longer enough. Not today in a world of moral relativism and DEI. Today, safety requires that one win the propaganda war. And Israel has to win that war as well.
Israel is told to ceasefire after the horror of October 7. The barbarity involved in the cross-border murders included the beheading of infants, binding families together with wire, dousing them with accelerants and incinerating them at intense temperatures that melted flesh and charred bones beyond recognition, horrifically gang-raping of prepubescent girls, teenagers, and women of all ages, leaving victims with not only bloody crotches, but broken legs and hips, before murdering them and dragging their bodies through the streets of Gaza to admiring and celebrating throngs of well-wishers; the 'innocent' civilians of Gaza.
Israel is told to concern itself with the people IN Gaza rather than her own citizens.
What did Churchill say about war? The man who led Britain in her attack against the Germans and her Allies?
“Victory, victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror; victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival. We shall not flag or fail. Never, never, never give up. It is to wage war, by sea, land and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us: to wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy. An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile—hoping it will eat him last.”
Seems these actions are endorsed for all but the Jews and the Jewish state. The Prime Minister of Israel has been told by America to “compromise.” America, the country that left no stone unturned to destroy the Nazis and the Japanese. Where are the calls to Ukraine and Russia, in the second year of a devastating war, for a ceasefire or compromise?
The Biden administration has told the Israeli government that it wants the country to end its large-scale ground campaign in Gaza and transition to a more targeted phase of its war against Hamas. America,the country that flattened Germany and dropped atomic bombs on Japan – countries far from their borders.
During an address at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Sullivan said, “The basic recipe, which is peace between Israel and its Arab neighbors, a two-state solution with Israel’s security guaranteed—these pieces are not, in a way, operating in completely separate spheres. They are linked and connected; they were before Oct. 7, they remain linked today, and they’re something that we’re going to have to continue to work on.” And Biden now wants to circumvent Netanyahu.
Thankfully, in the footsteps of Churchill, Prime Minister Netanyahu does not intend to change the goals of the war or compromise on less than total victory.
“The goals of the war are well known …chief among them the elimination of Hamas, the release of our hostages and the promise that Gaza will never pose a threat to Israel.”
‘Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. ‘
From the time of the rebirth of the Jewish State of Israel, she has been under attack from her Muslim neighbours. After every war there is a promise of peace, and then came land for peace. That resulted in Israel being bombed to pieces, over and over again. And the horrific barbaric massacre of Jews October 7 by Muslims from Gaza – from which the Jewish people were removed by their own government in 2005 for the sake of peace. It was a unilateral withdrawal of all Israeli security forces and settlements from the Gaza Strip in August–September 2005. The withdrawal also included the evacuation of five Israeli settlements in the West Bank – Judea/Samaria.
Why do the UN the EU and America keep demanding that Israel give up land for peace and back away without a true victory? I’ll tell you. Innate, systemic endemic Jew hatred and the fact that Israel did not and still does not have a proper Propaganda War to fight back against the calls for her destruction.
After Oct 7 – the world made a moral equivalence between the barbarity of Hamas and the defense of the Jews in return. Israel ended up at the ICJ the International Court of justice. Avi Lewis wrote in the Globe and Mail:
“This should not be a surprise. After almost 100 days of livestreamed starvation and blood-soaked rubble in Gaza, Jews and non-Jews around the world are saying: enough. In the face of Israeli’s defiant impunity, the international community has an absolute moral and legal obligation to step in to stop this insensate convulsion of violence and destruction.”
Wonder what he would have written during the time of the Nazis.
Muslims world wide have taken a page out of the Nazi handbook on Propaganda
Jews are told over and over that we run the world. OK. So let’s run a first class Propaganda War!
From the Ethics of the Fathers: “Rabbi Tarfon used to say, it is not incumbent upon you to complete the task, but you are not exempt from undertaking it.”

HOOVER FEATURED ANALYSIS
As China grows its economic, military, and diplomatic capabilities, it is increasing its aggression in the Indo-Pacific region. It is also attempting to reshape international institutions to reflect its own policy preferences, opposing the growth of democratic systems worldwide, and threatening its neighbors, notably Taiwan. In response, a number of Hoover scholars work assiduously to produce timely research peering deep into China’s behavior and to determine how America can best respond to challenges posed by Beijing.
Q&A with Glenn Tiffert on China’s Global Sharp Power Project
The Hoover Institution’s project on China’s Global Sharp Power (CGSP) delivers data-driven analysis and actionable policy solutions that equip decision makers to strike more resilient, balanced, and vigilant relationships with the People’s Republic of China. In this interview with Defining Ideas, the project’s cochair, Distinguished Research Fellow Glenn Tiffert, describes CGSP’s mission and initiatives.
What was the genesis of the project on China’s Global Sharp Power?
Glenn Tiffert: Hoover’s project on China’s Global Sharp Power grew out of a 2018 report jointly edited by Larry Diamond and Orville Schell of the Asia Society called China’s Influence & American Interests. This report took a hard look at the various ways in which China had penetrated different sectors of American society and was exerting influence in ways that were underappreciated and not readily apparent to the eye. The media, local government, national government, think tanks, academia—sectors of that sort. The report was seminal to the larger discussion the United States has since been having about how China exerts influence—sometimes malign influence—in democratic societies. When we finished it, we realized that there was a lot more work to be done and CGSP was born.
