Friends,

It has come to my attention that the boycott of the Toronto Film Festival for featuring Tel Aviv has been defeated by people who bought up all the tickets, at least the ones online.  If more tickets are available, be sure to buy them and fill the theaters.

If we can make this the most successful film festival ever, that would be a real victory.

Thanks to all who participated, wrote, voiced an opinion, and bought a ticket. The Toronto Jewish community is great!

How you are handling this should set an example to Jewish communities everywhere on how to behave in such a situation.

As Avigdor Lieberman, Israel’s Foreign Minister recently said, there must be zero tolerance for the haters and disseminators of lies about Israel.  We need to respond firmly and decisively to each and every incident, however small.  It’s time to fight back! Read more >

Jew-haters in academia are not all cut from the same cloth. Noam Chomsky, for instance, most likely, hates Jews because they remind him of his parents. Paul Hamel appears to be a compulsive groupie. He likes to hang with exciting people who happen to be Antisemitic terrorist enablers.

Neve Gordon believes that he has a calling, from whatever secularist gods he worships, to bring about the destruction of Israel, whose Jewishness he regards as a personal affront, a stain on his resume. He does not want to live in a Jewish democratic apartheid state. The alternative, a shariah state in which Jews are subservient to Muslim supremacists, suits him just fine. This pompous know-it-all academic is like a man who walks into a fifteen round no-holds-barred extreme fight just in time to see one fighter beating the other mercilessly. He concludes that the fight is unfair;  one side is clearly over matched. As it happens, the fighter doing the beating in round fourteen barely escaped certain death in the earlier thirteen rounds. Once he gains the upper hand, he desperately keeps pummeling his opponent, knowing that if he stops, for even a moment, the bigger opponent will recover and very likely kill him.

Muslims have been oppressing, beating, taxing and killing Jews for thirteen centuries before the re-birth of the state of Israel. One of Muhammad’s earliest atrocities was the murder and exile of the Jews from the town of Yathrib (today’s Madinah, Saudi Arabia). It was but the first of many attempted genocides of Jews by Muslims. On his dying bed Muhammad decreed eternal animosity for Jews (and Christians). Muslim Arabs (as in “from Arabia”) conquered the Holy Land for the first time in 639 AD and have been tormenting Jews there ever since.

The six million Jews of Israel know that weakness will result in their extinction. Just like Southern slave owners never accept freed slaves as equals, the world’s 1.3 billion Muslims do not accept that Jews, whom they have ruled for centuries, deserve of a state of their own.

Here is what Neve Gordon would have written if he knew history and really wanted his boys to be free. Read more >

Just when it seems that there is no expression of academic treason that Israel has not seen and that Ben Gurion University has not defended as “pursuing peace and justice,” along comes Neve Gordon, the head of the University’s politics department, and issues a call in the Los Angeles Times for a world boycott of Israel. He says it is in order to save Israel. And a growing movement among Jews who do NOT hate themselves is organizing to boycott Ben Gurion University in response.

You know, to save it from itself!

According to Israel’s Haaretz, Aug. 23 2009, a large group of Los Angeles Jews are launching a campaign to boycott Ben Gurion University for as long as Gordon works there: Read more >

The Canadian Jewish lobby is, thank G-d, more powerful than its usual tendency to appease would suggest. Apparently, they managed to get ani-Semite Denis Rancourt fired from his post as a pseudo-academic in the University of Ottawa. Steven Plaut has the story.

Down goes another “academic” Anti-Semite, out come the Leftist Complaints about the “Zionist Bogeyman”

An Ottawa anti-Semite professor gets himself fired due to gross insubordination and the Left blames the Jews and the “Lobby” once again!

Yes, he was an anti-Semitic crackpot at the University of Ottawa who regularly invited Holocaust Denier Michel Chossudovsky to lecture to his classes.  So now he blames dem Joos, of course, for his getting fired. Read more >

Steven Plaut Wants You!

Urgent – Take Action – Ben Gurion University “Academic” Serving as Accomplice for Tehran Holocaust Deniers.

Sorry to bother you in the middle of Chometz cleaning, but there is an urgent matter. If you cannot spare a few minutes for this before Passover, please help out during Chol Hamoed:

Ben Gurion University “Academic” Serving as Accomplice for Tehran Holocaust Deniers

Neve Gordon is the anti-Semitic lecturer in political science, the democracy hater who suppresses freedom of speech of his students, who attempted to suppress my own freedom of speech when I pointed out that he is a groupie of Holocaust Denier Norman Finkelstein (and he failed), the pseudo-academic who built a career at Ben Gurion University mainly by turning out anti-Israel hate propaganda, the columnist for anti-Semitic media from the Neo-Nazi Counterpunch magazine to Aljazeera.com (for report see here).

Gordon’s “academic record” strongly resembles that of his guru Norman Finkelstein.  Gordon is so openly anti-Semitic that his materials are published by Neo-Nazi and Holocaust Denial web sites.

That same Neve Gordon has a new job – bashing Israel as a columnist for the Tehran Times.  Yes, Gordon is openly the accomplice of the Holocaust Denying mullahs of Iran threatening Israel with nuclear annihilation.
