Let's focus down to the insane strictures in this would be Bill, as i am not going to get into holocaust deniers as holocaust deniers do personally offend me profoundly---so the matter free ofspeech aspect i here just dodge, and just say it is too personal for me to ever defend holocaust deniers-- it is something that is emotionally impossible to do. Just as it is emotionally impossible for me to not shout out Israel is in a slow motion process of destroying the Palestine people, in cold, step by step destruction , like a death by a thousand cuts( The thousand cut death is NOT a myth, btw, it was meticulously done by the Chinese aristocracy of any commoner discovered without permission within the walls of Empire Enclave Palace was then slowly dispatched into death--- i have seen the room where it was done--it was a documentary on TV-- i have seen the specially designed tools used to scoop out flesh but keep a person alive for 1,000 cuts) Since the beginning Israel has been in a process of a virtual "death by a thousand cuts" of the Palestinian People, it has been 61 years now. 61 years as the rest of the world could careless.
But let's at this purposed legislation closely---it is insane.
"It will be a crime to report the extraordinary influence of the Israel Lobby on the White House and Congress, such as the AIPAC-written resolutions praising Israel for its war crimes against the Palestinians in Gaza that were endorsed by 100 per cent of the US Senate and 99 per cent of the House of Representatives, while the rest of the world condemned Israel for its barbarity." An absolutely diabolical a law that would be. Totalitarian truth crushing at it's most extreme.
<<It will become a crime to note the disproportionate representation of Jews in the media, finance, and foreign policy.>> If that be the fact let that fact be reported. We have all sorts of demographics. Is it a crime to simply say Afro-American disproportionately constitutes the NBA and NFL. Such a statement is an observation. If law were applied to Afro-Americans on noting the fact of their dominance in the NBA and NFL, would mean you go to jail for having dared note what is a fact. There is nothing racist in such an observation.
To make it a law that you can not "note the disproportionate representation of Jews in the media, finance, and foreign policy." would actually FEED the forces of anti-semiticism as such a law would do nothing but inflame the idea of a there being massive jewish conspiracy.
Aside: i can see Jon Stewart, in sharp satire, telling each of his guest not to mention he is jewish or they will go to Jail--LOl! AIPAC is an Ultra Zionist Organization, it has NOT a damn thing to to with being a jew. They are USING the word jewish and anti-semiticism to promulgate what is an an EXTREME Nationalistic fanaticism that exist at The Expense of the people who the land actually BELONGS to--this is so sick, all of it.
<<It will be a crime for Christians to acknowledge the New Testament’s account of Jews demanding the crucifixion of Jesus.>> Will it also be a crime that Abba Eban in his narration of the history of the jews estimates that as many as 15million Jews vanished into the Nazarene movement. That Abba Eban said the event of Jesus ripped the Jewish world asunder as Jews commenced the massive Nazarene Movement.
As for those in the crowd, they were likely given some money by the Sadduccees and Roman alliance to create that crowd(politics you know--the Saduccees being the quislings to the Roman occupation, as i see it). Is Harold Bloom an anti-semite for saying Jesus was the greatest jew that ever lived?? He has written a book about this, a very deeply researched book, as he sought to discover the Jesus the man, the real Jesus, and not the FAKE BS Jesus that such as Augustine of Hippo(1,600 years ago,ROUGHLY) and the CRW, in recent times, have created out of their own imagination--and has NO bearing on who Jesus really was. Harold Bloom sees him as a jew, that was an intimate part of Jewish history.
Again such a law passed would ONLY inflame the Christian Fundamentalist and feed the forces of anti-semitism.
i have commented enough.Max
