The Institute for Middle East Understanding (IMEU) has posted an English translation of a video that was produced by Ynet following the attack on several Palestinians in Jerusalem’s Zion Square on August 17th. These interviews were taken in Jerusalem’s Kikar Hahatulot (Cat Square) near the site of the attack. The IMEU notes, “the video is reminiscent of a controversial 2009 video made by Jewish-American journalist/author Max Blumenthal and American-Israeli journalist Joseph Dana titled ‘Feeling the hate in Jerusalem.'”
You can find the original Ynet report here.
“[crowd chanting] I hate all the Arabs”
But that can’t be right!!! Fredo told us that everyone else but the few bad apples were simply terrified and that’s why they just stood around and danced and sang while the assault happened.
I recall when Max’s groundbreaking video first hit the scene, a lot of Zionist charlatans (redundant) were pissed off naturally and whining about how the video was put out simply to make Jews ‘look bad’ (hoppy’s 2 cents).
The intentional dishonesty by these liars is staggering but it displays what we are up against in the organized political Zionist community. A profound dishonesty and awareness of the power of the Holocaust industry at an intuitive level and of the political capital of Jewish ‘identity’.
These videos serve to undermine Jewish political capital. And when that term ‘Jewish’ is used, it’s from the perspective of non-Jews, as simply a label because it is how we see that identity based on history and politics and culture.
No one wants to ‘look’ bad. These ‘Jews’ are Zionist Jews though most of all. That is the subtype of their identifier and that is why it hurts charlatans like the Zionists the most. They take it personally because the cats out of the bag and ‘they’ have been exposed to some extent. Which is not to say that they individually may share those views but that members of their group do and that reflects poorly ON THE GROUP.
However, Zionists NEED non-Jews to see Zionism AS JUDAISM and Jewishness in its entirety. Hence, why hoppy framed his phony outrage/accusation towards Max B. as, making ‘Jews’ look bad and not Zionists look bad.
Would this be likely to happen in the U.S. today, in 2012?
Nope. Not even with all the anti-Muslim, anti-Arab rhetoric we’ve been flooded with in the last decade. A individual or small group might commit such a crime, but they would not receive the kind of open support seen in the end of the video. All those oh-so-sophisticated New York and D.C. liberals who laugh at white southern yokels and bible-thumpers nevertheless support racists that make most Americans in fly-over country look like open-minded cosmopolitans.
Max tweeted last week that some of the video footage coming out of the Zion Square “lynching” (I don’t think that is a very accurate term for what happened) vindicates what he tried to demonstrate with the “Feeling the Haste in Jerusalem” video. I agree. Also, Max’s video is back on Youtube.
Things appear to be worse now than they were in early 2009 when Max did the interviews.
Re the taxi fire-bombing that happened earlier on the same day as the “lynch” – three boys aged 12 to 13 have been arrested, and are from one of the most violent settlements:
