generalspeaking: The Bonds Between Hateful Antisemites

"The founding of the Jewish state in response to the indescribable evil of the Holocaust against Jewish humanity produced dispossession and domination of Palestinian peoples."
"This sad paradox of how a terrorized and traumatized people for two thousand years -- precious Jewish people -- reproduced terror and trauma for precious Palestinian people in the last seventy-five years reveals our human wretchedness."
Dr. Cornel West, academic media commentator, failed U.S. presidential candidate; "non-Marxist socialist"

"[In support of] Palestinian state recognition, justice for kids facing unfair consequences for supporting Palestine, sanctions on the Netanyahu government, a two-way arms embargo on the IDF."

The man who describes the United States -- where he is a citizen -- as a "racist patriarchal" state infused with white supremacy, and views the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as a struggle between oppressors and oppressed, has been invited to Canada by the National Council of Canadian Muslims as a guest speaker, inviting all those interested to join them on November 1 for "an evening with Dr. Cornel West to learn, be inspired and support the fight against Islamophobia and racism in Canada".

This is the man who issued a press release on October 7, 2023 addressing the attack on southern Israel by Hamas terrorists: "on the Jewish Sabbath, on the day when the festival of Sukkot reaches its conclusion and Jewish siblings around the globe celebrate Simchat Torah" when an unspeakably murderous rampage occurred...calling for an "end to the illegal occupation of Palestinians" and "immediate cessation of all violence" ostensibly committed by the Israel Defense Forces.

"The painful truth is that the Israeli state -- like like the USA -- has been racist in practice since its inception", he wrote. Little wonder this man is admired and respected by the National Council of Canadian Muslims, among many if not most Muslim groups that advocate for the 'rights' of Palestinians and agitate for the destruction of the Jewish state.

A man, after all, who is capable of seeming to commiserate with the Jewish community which has suffered deathly torment throughout the millennia of its existence. But, clear-eyed to the underlining racism he identifies in his great wisdom, that Jews generate in their sinister aspirations to control the world. A classic antisemite, with an interesting twist.

"The U.S. government, the Israeli government and the occupied Hamas forces have blood on their hands", he avers. The October 7 mass atrocity was described by this man a day later as the "desperate language of an occupied people". Obvious to his acute reasoning that Gaza's rulers had no option but to use deathly violence to oppose the Jewish state whose military is occupied in defending its population against terrorist violence.

The same kind of Byzantine reasoning that sees pro-Hamas protests since October 7, calling for globalizing the intifada, and 'death to Jews'.
