Haaretz: "Islamophobia, not Islam, will be the end of Israel"

Pamela Geller skillfully eviscerates this spectacularly vicious and wrongheaded piece in Haaretz. I myself find it astounding that Haaretz considers it more important to denigrate and destroy Pamela Geller and her efforts on behalf of Israel than to devote any serious effort to exposing the jihad against Israel and resisting its advance. What their calculation could be, I cannot fathom. Do they think that if they show themselves to be just as enthusiastic in fighting the foes of jihad as is Hamas-linked CAIR and other Islamic supremacist groups, that the jihadis will go lightly on them?

"'A Special Place in Hell' for the true enemies of Israel .... Haaretz," by Pamela Geller at Atlas Shrugs, August 21:

...Here, Bradley Burston posits that naziophobia, not Nazism, will be the end of the European Jewry. Well, not exactly, but pretty damn close.

Truth is the recognition of reality, and the fact is, the root cause of the Palestinian conflict, Islamic Jew-hatred, cannot be ignored or swept under the rug. There can be no peace until the motive for Jewish genocide is understood and combatted. Burston wants to kill the messenger. Does he really believe that can save the Jewish people? We tried that. Remember? It failed in unimaginable proportion....

The title of this piece is so absurd that it is amazing that even a Leftist propaganda sheet like Haaretz published it. Muslims explicitly and proudly motivated by Islamic texts and teachings have murdered countless numbers of Israeli civilians. Islamic doctrine regarding the impermissibility of infidel rule on what they consider to be Muslim land and the quran's demonization of the Jews have doomed every Israeli concession to futility and every attempt at a negotiated settlement to failure. Israel is on the front lines of the global Islamic jihad, and this Jewicidal tool Bradley Burston says that "Islamophobia," not Islam, will be the end of Israel. How many Israeli civilians have been murdered by "Islamophobia"? How many rocket attacks have "Islamophobes" launched against Israel? How many "Islamophobes" have blown themselves up on buses and in pizza parlors full of Jews?

"Islamophobia, not Islam, will be the end of Israel" by Bradley Burston, Haaretz, August 21:

Israel has elaborate defense systems against military attack and terrorism. Its defenses against its extremists, such as professional bigot Pamela Geller, are much more porous.

SAN FRANCISCO – Everyone knows how it works. Everyone knows what it sounds like. Everyone knows how easy it is to get away with it.

Everyone knows, deep down, that hatred feeds on tolerance. That however well-intentioned, a society's forbearance for the toxic slur, for the poison of ethnic or religious or racial prejudice, does hatred invaluable service.

No one knows this better than professional bigots. People like Pamela Geller, who pass themselves off as supporters of a worthy cause even as their hatred and prejudice stain and undermine anything and everything worthy about that cause.

Burston sounds as if he is working from Hamas-CAIR talking points (and he could well be). In his eyes, it is "hatred and prejudice" to acknowledge the truth about Islam's doctrines of jihad and Jew-hatred. It is "hatred and prejudice" to work for the freedom of speech against Islam's blasphemy law, and for the freedom of conscience against Islam's death penalty for apostasy, and for equality of rights for all people against Islam's systematic oppression of women and non-Muslims. But what do you think he has written about the real hatred and prejudice that Islamic imams spew on a daily basis against Jews and other infidels? Nothing. Nothing at all. But he did write Haaretz's earlier front-page hit piece on me.

Imagine if Haaretz went after the enemies of the Jews with the same energy with which they go after staunch defenders of Israel.

For years, in the guise of supporting Israel, Geller has engaged in promoting hatred of Islam. In recent weeks, in a campaign timed to coincide with Muslims' observance of the sacred month of Ramadan, her American Freedom Defense Initiative has run caustic, self-styled "pro-Israel" advertisements on the sides of public transit buses in San Francisco.

Burston has nothing to say about how about 565 civilians were killed in Iraq in jihad attacks during the just-concluded "sacred month of Ramadan." He has nothing to say about the murderous, Jew-killing Muslims in Bulgaria who said that "Ramadan is a month of holy war and death for Allah. It is a month for fighting the enemies of Allah and God's messenger, the Jews and their American facilitators." None of that bothers him. What bothers him is if I dare during the "sacred month of Ramadan" to point out the number of jihad attacks since 911. How they must be laughing inside the offices of Hamas-CAIR.

There is much more. Read it all.

It's not April 1st again today, is it?

Burston's a clown!

What a pathetic way to get attention. The article is an absolute insult. Not to Pamela Geller, but to Islam's past and future victims that Burston is so ignorantly encouraging.

If Germany's Nazis, had allies like Burston, There would be no jewish state. What temerity !

WOW!,

Burston is streaking to be the stupidest guy in journalism/tv journalism.

ERR.

Not "only" to Pamela Geller

Sorry, Pamela

Typical self-hating jews.

These liberals are really out there man. "Islamophobia, not Islam, will be the end of Israel". This is deep. How can anybody even come up with that? How can somebody so blind at this day and age with U tube showing muslims yelling "death to Israel, death to America" including beheadings. This is called SUICIDE in my book.

Sorry to burst on your bubble, but in the last half a century the Haaretz has transformed itself, from a moderate centerist, credible publication, into an excremental publication of the lunatic left, lacking credibility with most Israeli and other readers. having two major deficiencies namely: The printed version is not printed upon more absorbent paper, and the electronic version lacking even the limited utility of the printed version.

Haaretz: "Islamophobia, not Islam, will be the end of Israel"
.................................

How about this: "Naziophobia, not Nazism, will be the end of Europe's vibrant Jewish community". That gives an idea of how stupid the above is.

Yes, she does. The brave and no-nonsense Ms. Geller does not suffer fools gladly, and few come more foolish than this.

I just read the original Haaretz article, and the monumentally stupid Bradley Burston refers pejoratively to Geller and "pro-Kahane" support for Israel—obviously a reference to Meir Kahane, the founder of the Jewish Defense League.

I may or may not have agreed with Kahane on all points, but here is a salient fact: Meir Kahane was murdered by a Muslim, El Sayyid Nosair, who posed as a well-wisher following a speech of Kahane's at Manhattan's Marriott East Side Hotel in 1990.

El Sayyid Nosair was later convicted of involvement in the first WTC bombing.

In other words, Kahane's warnings about the threat of Jihad were abundantly proven: by the threat against Israel, by the threat against the West, and by his own killing.

Yet here is Burston positing Kahane as the "real threat"—and is doing the same to Ms. Geller.

What a tool...

I read haaretz paper years ago maybe three times got disgusted and never again. What a joke, self loathing jews, apologists for muzz, why don't they just roll over and die already, so pathetic, could they hate themselves any more.

Leftist derangement and Gellerphobia will be the end of Israel.

I wrote to Burston:

'the next time you cannot hold your ink, don't do anything. Just relax, don't waste any paper, and let it blow over'.....


Yes, we all gonna die, but not because of Bibi or Pamela Geller. Many of us will die stupid, and you're one of them.

It's Dhimmi talk!!

Part of a belief system that says if we are very good - if we say everything nicely - if we don't speak back - don't look them directly in the eye - then this whole Islamic hijacking thing will just go away.


The reason Muslim groups were embraced by Hitler - was on their shared hatred and desire to see the destruction of the Jews. [Both held genocidal ideologies.]

The Yellow star of the WWII - Jews were forced to wear - was an Islamic inspiration - now Hindus/Sikhs in parts of Pakistan are forced to wear Red patches in accordance with Islamic law. [Is it the Hindus who are appalled by this fault?]


Unfortunately Pamela Geller and George Bush could in truth have had little influence on this larger picture.

I thought Zionism would be the end of Israel? Now it's Islamophobia? Islam seeks Israel's destruction for the same reason it seeks to destroy every infidel state: it's non-Islamic. PERIOD!

I meant to say: it's non-Islamic, STUPID.

Apollo,

Desperation makes people do stupid things like authoring and allowing this stupid article to be published.

When the Communistphobe Ronald Reagan fearlessly spoke the truth about the Soviet Union daring to call it an "Evil Empire" Leftists went ballistic fearing it would increase Cold War tensions leading to a world destroying nuclear war. Well, the Soviet Union disappeared from history and we're still here.

Burston seems like the type of person who would stand on the sideline and watch his best friend beaten up by a schoolyard bully. At the end of the fight, Burston would approach his friend saying, “I told you not to call him a bully. If you’d kept your mouth shut, none of this would have happened.”

History has shown that cowardice does not extinguish evil. Rather, it feeds evil, allowing it to grow stronger and more malicious with each passing day. May Pamela Geller be blessed for her courageous stance against an archaic ideology that will destroy our democratic civilizations if permitted to breed unchallenged by sycophants, cowards and dullards such as Burston.
