ADL’s Abe Foxman betrays Proud Jews in The Jewish Week

11

Last week the Soviet-style, Soviet-born director of the ADL since 1965, Abe Foxman, compared me to the virulent Je- hater Louis Farrakhan in the pages of, drumroll please, The Jewish Week. This is a new low for the increasingly anti-zionist rag, and points to the low state of the Jewish diaspora. Imagine, proud zionists are defamed and smeared by traitors in our own newspapers. Foxman is a pox on our house.

I called Gary Rosenblatt, Editor and Publisher, repeatedly, asking for space for a rebuttal. After four phone-calls (none of which he took) and a flurry of emails, they finally printed my (very) edited letter to the editor today (here). They have no shame. Write [email protected]

The crushing failure of the American Jewish diaspora continues to shock and dishearten Jews across the world. I wrote a column about for The Thinker. Read it.

Abe Foxman Epitomizes the Failure of Jewish Leadership
Pamela Geller, American Thinker
The capacity for humiliating, destructive behavior from Abe Foxman continues to astound and repel proud Jews across the world. More

We saw the lengths to which the left will go to demonize and destroy its opponents this week, when in the New York Jewish Week on March 16, Abraham Foxman charged that I am “in many ways no better than Farrakhan or Buchanan.” I am proud of my work as a patriot and a passionate Zionist; to be compared to Jew-haters by a man who styles himself a leader of the Jews is abominable.

Foxman charged me with bigotry for my work with Stop Islamization of America, a program of my organization, the American Freedom Defense Initiative.  So now defending free society from an ideology that makes war against free speech and equal rights for women and non-Muslims is “bigotry.”  Defending Jews from an ideology that features a more deeply ingrained and violent anti-Semitism than any other in the world is “hatred.”

We have seen the likes of Abe Foxman before in Jewish history: the reviled traitor among us — Dathan in The Ten Commandments.  The idea that this greasy quisling still leads the Anti-Defamation League is a stunning indictment of the failure of Jewish lay leadership.  Worse still, a Jewish press is publishing this collaborator.  I called Gary Rosenblatt, the editor of Jewish Week, several times over the last few days, but he was always (surprise!) on the other line when I called.  He did finally agree to print a letter from me, but he refused to give me the space he eagerly gave to Foxman to defame me.

The capacity for humiliating, destructive behavior from Abe Foxman (and those Jews who fund the Anti-Defamation League) continues to astound and repel proud Jews across the world.

Foxman’s record of poisonous activity that is ultimately harmful to the Jewish community is longstanding.  His denial of the Armenian genocide is monstrous.  If we as a people cannot stand with other victims of genocide, then who can?  Here is a man who refuses to call the Armenian genocide of two million Christians a genocide, but who expects the Holocaust to be considered as such.  What’s the difference?  And if he can dismiss that genocide, what differentiates him from, say, an Ahmadinejad, who denies the Holocaust?  Foxman went so far as to fire an ADL regional director for disagreeing with him over the Armenian genocide.

Foxman has defended Barack Obama’s egregious betrayal of Israel, saying, in the teeth of all the evidence, “I don’t see this as the president throwing Israel under the bus.”  He has (only once) acknowledged that “the greatest threat to the Jewish people and the highest priority for the ADL was that which came from Islamic extremists.”  However, he has issued thousands of press releases over the last seventeen years, and less than three percent of them have had anything to do with the Islamic jihad or Islamic anti-Semitism.

Once, in 2010, Foxman showed that he still had some remnants of a conscience and the courage to do the right thing when he voiced opposition to the Ground Zero mosque.  But immediately after that, he began prostrating himself in front of any mosque or madman who would listen, trying to make amends.  He even launched the “Interfaith Coalition on Mosques” in September 2010; its objective is to fight for monster-mosque construction rights.  What’s wrong with this?  Imagine an “Islamic Coalition to Build Synagogues in Muslim Countries,” or the “Islamic Coalition of Muslims to Build Coptic Christian Churches in Egypt,” or the “Islamic Coalition to Build Hindu Temples in India, Kashmir, and Pakistan.”  (OK, you can stop laughing now.)

Foxman is building coalitions to construct mega-mosques that will almost certainly teach the most vile anti-Semitism on the planet today, as do 80% of mosques in America.  Foxman also came out in support of the Islamic school in Brooklyn whose principal was forced to resign because of her involvement in anti-Semitic “Intifada NYC” t-shirts (see here).

Liberal Jews won’t be happy until they see the next worldwide holocaust.
They’re so proud of their idiotic ideas, like the idea that if they can just destroy nationalism the world will be a better place for everyone. Forget that there are good nations. No, they want worldwide monoculture with centralized authority so that any bad idea (like killing the Jews) can spread to every corner of the earth, leaving no place for its victims to hide.
Nations, they reason, caused the Holocaust, so nations are bad. Those nations were filled with religious sentiment, so religion is bad. So now, under their control, we are not allowed to have a nation or a separate culture or a God. I suppose if the people who caused the Holocaust wore striped socks they’d believe socks are bad, stripes are bad.
So they demand a world government, with multiculturalism everywhere. But who will be in charge? If he hates Jews the liberal Jews who brought him to power will just be living in one big country filled with anti-Semitism (called “Earth”). Then where will the hide until the madness ends – the moon?

It really does not matter what race, country, religion people are born into, most will become evil doers simply because its the easy path, few will do what is right because that is the hard path.

@ Keith, there is good religion, mediocre religion, and bad religion, and they influence behavior accordingly.

This people are not true “liberals” and not leftists and not anything. They don’t have an ideology or a vision. They are prostitutes with ulterior motives, but mostly they sell their voice for personal gain. They also can’t be called leaders because they don’t have any real followers.

I believe we are in the times mentioned in Jeremiah 16. These people are blind to what is happening. They don’t realize that by their blindness they will be the ones hunted next. They have deceived themselves into thinking if they “play nice” these people will not hurt them. The word of the Lord is true above all else. This is beginning to happen.
14Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be said, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
15But, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave unto their fathers.
16Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith the LORD, and they shall fish them; and after will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks. Jeremiah 16:14-16

Foxman is a despicable creature. ADL is a sham. There are lots of Foxman types floating around in England. Boycotters set out to destroy Israel businesses and infrastructure (have Jews at the helm) and they love this creep, which speaks volumes. Foxman was also one of the first to attack Beck when Beck spoke out against Soros. Is it no wonder so many Foxman types are setting up ‘bodies’ working against Israel when you have self-loathing bottom feeders at the helm! They are a disgrace AND they too have blood on their hands.
Btw, well said Pamela.

How naive. Evil ideologies, like Islam and Nazism are up to their armpits in blood.

When you are as far to the left as Foxman is, you stop being a Jew. You become a “progressive”. That seems to require anti-semitism/Zionism. Even from “Jews”. The list is to long to post. Even a commited Left winger like Allan Dershowitz (Who is decidedly pro Israel) has begun a campaign against this leftist hate.

I sweat blood to finance my grandsons’Israeli childhood.
And,this is precisely why.
Israel still lives by Judaism and the Torah.The diaspora
Jews’ religion is secularism.Foxman and his ilk could never
survive in Israel and the Middle East because Judaism and
the Torah teach how to recognize EVIL and consequently,the enemy.
Secularism teaches maoral relativism.A death sentence.
