Is Criticizing Israel Becoming A Potential Death Sentence For Jews?

I was shocked by a recent article written by American Jewish Professor Marc Ellis on Mondoweiss.

Even though I certainly am aware that Jews who criticize the unlawful practices of Israel have recently faced much and ever growing unfair criticism and demonization and slanderous character attacks and character assassination, in both the US and Israel.

But this man speaks of plans he had been making to go into a witness protection program, for fear of his life being taken by Jews or their enablers, over simply being a witness in a trial, the trial of the Holy Land Five (who were convicted to prison for giving money to Palestinian charities).

They were neither tried nor convicted of "giving money to Palestinian charities."
As always you and your sources must lie because the truth just doesn't support your hate:

The Holy Land Foundation was the largest Islamic charity in the United States. Headquartered in Richardson, Texas,[1] it was originally known as Occupied Land Fund. In 2007, federal prosecutors brought charges against the organization for funding Hamas and other "Islamic terrorist organizations".

Its assets were frozen by the European Union and U.S., and it was shut down by the U.S. government following the discovery that it was funding Hamas. The 2008 trial of the charity leaders was dubbed the "largest terrorism financing prosecution in American history." In 2009, the founders of the organization were given life sentences for "funneling $12 million to Hamas."

On July 27, 2004, a federal grand jury in Dallas, Texas, returned a 42-count indictment against the Holy Land Foundation. Charges included: conspiracy, providing material support to a foreign terrorist organization, tax evasion, and money laundering. The indictment alleged that the Holy Land Foundation provided more than $12.4 million to individuals and organizations linked to Hamas from 1995 to 2001, when their assets were frozen. The indictment also named specific officers of the Holy Land Foundation: President Shukri Abu Baker; Chairman Ghassan Elashi; and Executive Director Haitham Maghawri, and four others: Mohammad el-Mezain, Akram Mishal, Mufid Abdulqader, and Abdulraham Odeh. Five of the seven were arrested. Maghawri and Mishal have not been found, and are considered fugitives.

In December 2004, a federal judge in Chicago ruled that the Holy Land Foundation (along with the Islamic Association of Palestine and the Quranic Literacy Institute) was liable in a $156 million dollar lawsuit for aiding and abetting the militant group Hamas in the death of a 17-year-old American citizen named David Boim.

We can all imagine whatever we like, does not a 'potential death sentence' make.
 
Rick Sanchez for one.


Rick Sanchez said it is standard policy the world over for employers to sack Jewish people who criticize Israel? Was he broadcasting from a psychiatric institution? :badgrin:
Oh - got a link?
(Don't really want it btw)

Rick Sanchez was fired for saying jews rig the media and own most of the media in the USA

Any US politician who criticizes Israel or makes a statement that Israel and Bush both agreed on.

Such as Barack Obama. He said it should be based on 67 borders, the two state solution, Bush said the same thing, so did Israeli prime minsters.

But what so you know....he had to correct himself like a dog on a leash for his Zionist masters.



Oh so a completely different scenario then. Thought so. Saying Jews own and rig the media is a common libel parrotted by paranoid propagandist islamists, its not a good idea to emulate them publicly - it comes accross as slightly nutty and a bit racist because it is a typical anti-semitic libel. Duuuuuhhhhhh.

The princess is a drama queen. This is what a religious death sentence looks like:

On 14 February 1989, a fatwā requiring Rushdie's execution was proclaimed on Radio Tehran by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the spiritual leader of Iran at the time, calling the book "blasphemous against Islam" ... A bounty was offered for Rushdie's death, and he was thus forced to live under police protection for several years. On 7 March 1989, the United Kingdom and Iran broke diplomatic relations over the Rushdie controversy.

Quite
 
What? The news said that it is 'standard policy' for employers the world over to sack Jewish people who voice opposition to Israeli policies etc?

Rick Sanchez for one.

Juan Cole and Norman Finkelstein for a couple more.


You two Hamas supporters are saying these broadcasters said that IT IS STANDARD POLICY THE WORLD OVER TO SACK JEWISH PEOPLE WHO CRITICISE ISRAEL? They need to be sectioned.
 
none of the three people cited by Tinless ----lost their jobs for "CRITISIZING ISRAEL" but tinless does reveal his "in general islamo nazi" mindset-----by making note of persons who have commented ---to some extent, on affairs of interest to jews ------tinless ----is of a mindset that sees JEWISH CONTROL in every corner-----not unlike illiterate inebriated polish peasants -----out on a pogrom or-----muslims who insist that JEWS ARE GIVING LITTLE MUSLIM GIRLS APHRODISIAC CHEWING GUM
Anyone interested in just who tinnie is----should read the pro nazi literature promulgated in the USA (and probably in the UK) in the 1930s

No he got fired for calling Jewish people bigots.

Get out of your warped world where only Muslims oppose tyranny and corruption.

Lots of Americans are well aware of the Zionist influence in our country
 
yes RICK was fired for inflammatory nazi statements against jews------if he had made similar statements against ITALIANS, OR QUAKERS or MARTIANS or ROMMULENS he would also have been fired in fact he made more nutty statements and accused OTHER PEOPLE----not particularly jews----of various perversities

I do not recall any "criticism of israel" which Tinmore claims is the MAIN REASON FOR BEING FIRED IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
 
what is useful about tinnie's post "because" habibi?-----he provided you with fake information--------you don't need him for that ----just pay attention to the KHUTBAH JUMAAT
none of the people HE claimed were fired for "critisizing Israel"-----were fired for anything close to critisizing israel

Bull crap. He didn't make any inflammatory statements against Jews.

He said a normal true thing and got fired for it.

It's funny all the trash that say inflammatory statements against Muslims never get fired.

Rick pointed out that hypocrisy and most Americans know about the Zionist influence.

Mr. Finkelstein, who is going before a university-wide review panel on Friday, the third and final step of the tenure process, said that so far two committees — one from the political science department and one from the college as a whole — voted in favor of tenure. But the college dean rejected his advisory committee’s vote and recommended against an appointment.

Regardless of the outcome Mr. Dershowitz has managed to irritate many people besides Mr. Finkelstein. “Everyone has been offended by the degree of outside pressure,” said Michael Budde, the chairman of DePaul’s political science department, “which shows no respect for the integrity of our process and institution.” On Tuesday the Middle East Studies Association, which represents scholars, sent a letter to DePaul’s president expressing concern that this tenure decision had been “unduly politicized.”
