The Nazi movement is certainly gaining steam across Europe, though fueled far less by hatred of Jews as you suggest than by hatred of Muslims fleeing wars the West started in their home countries.Meet the packs of new Nazis, posing as Righteousness and Virtue, pursuing new exterminationist policies against Israel and, right after that, the Jews.
"In Nazi Germany," noted Brendan O'Neill in the Wall Street Journal, "it was all the rage to make one's town Judenfrei."
"Now a new fashion is sweeping Europe: to make one's town or city what we might call 'Zionistfrei' -- free of the products and culture of the Jewish state. Across the Continent, cities and towns are declaring themselves 'Israel-free zones,' insulating their citizens from Israeli produce and culture. It has ugly echoes of what happened 70 years ago."
The Nazis said "kauft nicht bei Juden": do not buy from Jews. The slogan of these new racists is "kauft nicht beim Judenstaat": do not buy from the Jewish State. The Nazis repeated "Geh nach Palästina, du Jud": Go to Palestine, you Jew. Racists in Europe shout "Jews out of Palestine!"
The "Virtuous" New Nazis
I agree.
I think it's fueled by a melting pot of scapegoats. Boycotting commodities produced in the Occupied Territories seems in my opinion a legitimate action to try to force a resolution of the IP situation much like boycotts did with South Africa. But there are hidden dangers there that ought to be examined.
How many of those supporting the movements truly care about the Palestinians? How many of them are opposing Israel's policies, and how many of them are simply finding a way of legitimizing the scapegoating of Jews - all Jews?
I'm seeing a lot of things that are very concerning: the rise, around Europe (and America) of far right nationalistic politics that are based, in part, on the politics of exclusion - anti-immigrant for example. Those are often the same groups that scapegoat Jews. They are legitimizing themselves on the issues of immigration and Islam where they have gained widespread support, because it's not "socially acceptable" to outwardly hate Jews the way it is Muslims but I think it's there, and can be seen in the propogation of conspiracy theories.
There are disturbing "groupings" - anti-semitism with some if the far right, anti-semitism painted as "anti-Israel" from some of the far left, and anti-semitism from some Muslim immigrants. But it's dishonest to label all opposition to Israel as anti-semitism.
Instead of the politics of seperation and division, there needs to be a move towards interfaith action in order to overcome this trend. It's been heading towards a dangerous repetition of history and the politics and rhetoric are the same, even if the targeted scapegoats now include others.
