Lauren Booth – Please tell me it's true. Or When will American Jews Prove me Wrong? Go ahead. I dare you!

Ok, this is going to be the mother of all posts (up till this time). What the %^*#$ are American Jews doing while the whole bloody world is vilifying us? Make me happy and just give me two, no one is enough, give me one example of what the heck they are doing to stand up to this never-ending, lie-fest against Israel?


I'll tell ya what they are doing: they are busy making sure their kids are set for space camp, dance camp, fat camp and a trip around the bloody world, which won't include Israel, cause, darling it's just a little too dangerous there these days. They are busy making sure their summer plans to Greece, Rome and France are in order and that their facials and manicures are scheduled and are on time and that Bubby's 85th surprise birthday party is planned down to a T.


Now of course we have Darling Lauren, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHxYwCS3sXc


telling the world about Israel's "massacres" on the bloody flotilla, in Gaza, in the "West Bank" (where ever that is) and in Jerusalem. Executions of the bloody peace activities??? – Shot in the back of the head????? You're good Lauren, I'll give ya that. And as the little darling states, she wants England to cut ties with Israel. Well please, I beg of you, please cut ties with Israel. Now!


Now tell me, where is 'our own American Lauren', yelling the truth about the bloody peace activists, and the bloody flotilla at PRO-ISRAEL rallies all over the US? Who in the Five Towns has gone without sleep making sure that everyone hears the TRUTH about the bloody flotilla? What Rabbis in Chicago, Cleveland and California have gone hoarse talking to everyone they know about the TRUTH? What nice Jewish political figures (yes the ones with the kippas and the ones without) throughout the US have run themselves ragged trying to get out the message? What group of mothers or fathers or dentists or lawyers have stood up ANY WHERE in the continental United States and screamed the truth?


And I do not mean a message of apologia, we Jews are soooo good at providing those messages. Nice little Jews, trying desperately to explain what happened and why and how and how sorry we are that someone got a bloody paper cut on board the flot-hitler – sorry flotilla. Where is the no-nonsense message that lies will not hold out and that Jews in America are the same as Jews in Israel. Ah there's the crux of the matter, but before I get to that little morsel, just one more question. What are the schools and the so-called Jewish educators doing; what message are they bringing to the next generation of Jewish students?


I'll tell you what the message is – silence. Oh and we are soooo good at that. Silence is golden, since "if we wait long enough, it – here is comes folks – will all blow over". So all those wonderful Jewish students are left to scratch their heads, slink along the corridors of the colleges and keep silent cause even if they wanted to talk back or create their own message – THEY HAVE NONE. They are not educated. They have no idea why they are Jewish, what is a Jew and why the heck we are in Israel in the first place. Most can’t quote the Torah (not a Bible, not a Jewish Bible, not the TORAH). Can't give an accurate account of Jewish history, except something about the holocaust and about the establishment of Israel (as if there is a connection between these events).


Let me put it to you very simply: once upon a time, a long time ago, a 'crazy man with a mustache' and some 29 fanatics dragged the world down into destruction. And America and American Jews did what they do best: they enjoyed their garden parties, summer camps and shopping on 5th Avenue. What were the excuses at that time? They didn't know what was happening and they didn’t want to make it a "Jewish issue". Right, as if making it into a 'Jewish issue' would have change things or saved even one Jewish soul.


TODAY the world is burning around us all. Jewish kids are abused on college campuses throughout the world. These kids and their parents begin to question if it is a 'good idea' to wear anything 'too Jewish' outside their 'neighborhood. But they won't bloody stand up and be counted.


And here it comes: they are afraid of be accused of dual loyalties. You see, no American Jew wants to cross that line and prove that he is a good Jew before he is a good America. What if things good bad in Israel, where will our good American Jews go? (Remember Little Helen's tirades?) Our American Jew thinks, like his cousins in Europe, that the answer lies in trusting goyim to 'take care of us'. Dual loyalties are dangerous for Jews. Now since the 'viability' of Israel has been proven (we were not wiped off the face of the earth by our neighbors who tried time and time again), we have a new burden: the 'friendship' between America and Israel. This burden has always been portrayed as America bending over backwards to be our friends and partners and how Israel seems to always screw it up, by doing something naughty if not outright illegal. I never understood the logic behind the idea that America is Israel's "staunchest ally" and that because Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East - America will always be our friend. I never understood the logic until I realized that this whole friendship-thing is a great way to keep American Jews quiet, controlled and scared to make too much noise. This is certainly a case of keeping your enemies close, but keeping your friends closer.


I want to remind everyone that Jews have lived in Europe since Roman times. Did that ever stop the multitude of European rulers (secular and religious) throughout the ages from starving, burning and killing us en masse and as always throwing us the hell out of every place we ever laid our collective heads?


Up until and including WWII, it didn't matter to European anti-Semites that we were an established presence there and today it won’t matter to American anti-Semites that Israel is somehow 'important' to them. IT ISN'T AND WE ARE NOT.


No amount of assimilating or 'being essential to a country's anything', ever made a difference when it came to getting rid of the Jews.


Stop fooling yourselves.


You know I was taught that American Jews learned the lessons of their silence during the Shoah and would never be quiet, would never again allow Jews to be harmed/killed/massacred. Wrong! American Jews always stay the same. Before the Shoah, American Jews felt the European Jews were an embarrassment: too Jewish, too old fashioned, too funny talking. Well, what is it today? WE in Israel are not backward (ask Microsoft, Intel and hundreds of other hi tech companies who have established their Research and Development centers here in Israel), not poor and uneducated (see how strong our economy is). So what is it? Don’t like a strong Jew? Don’t like a Jew in uniform protecting his own? Get used to it. Don’t make excuses for it.


So all I have is one thing to say: Prove me wrong American Jews. Go ahead, I dare you.
