Judenhass: Foundation of Antisemitism
Hear, Israel, the Lord is our God, the Lord is One. ![]() ![]() Foundation of Antisemitism
With the armies of the Islamic Ummah advancing their planned invasion of Israel and genocide of the Jewish people... "Antisemitism" means anti-Jewish. Period. That is what it was coined to mean and what it always has meant. Many words do not mean what they literally mean when broken down. For instance have you ever seen a "white person?" I haven't and I'm of them. Is a cowboy really half cow half boy? Is a hamburger a ham sandwich? No, words must be understood in their context and common usage. The term "antisemitic," antisemite," "antisemitism" etc. was coined to refer to those who are anti-Jewish. As even Wikipedia says: Usage:
.... Antisemitism refers specifically to prejudice against Jews alone and in general, despite the fact that there are other speakers of Semitic languages (e.g. Arabs, Ethiopians, or Assyrians) and that not all Jews speak a Semitic language.
The "League of Antisemites" ("Antisemiten-Liga") was the first German organization committed specifically to combating the alleged threat to Germany and German culture posed by "the Jews" and their influence. This group advocated for the forced removal of all Jews from all German lands. Through their efforts the hateful term entered into common usage. Antisemitism is today as it has been since the term was first coined: it is Judenhass (Jew-hatred), the drive to make the world Judenfei (free of Jews). Sadly, historically some of the strongest advocates of Judenhass have been the Christian Church (both Catholic and Protestant: Martin Luther's book On Jews and their Lies is a prime example). Even today when more Christians than ever are standing with Israel there are entire Christian denominations steeped Judenhass and actively supporting the terrorists who are seeking to genocide the Jewish people (many in the name of "peace!"). Now history is repeating. Consider this video:
ALL who stand with Hamas and the other enemies of Israel today are following in the footsteps of Hitler and the Nazis. Its simply a fact. The Nazis made seemingly reasonable claims to defend their Judenhass policies and the modern Nazis and their Muslim comrades are doing the same today. Nothing really changes. People have always hated the Jews and sought their destruction. Consider this from Rabbi Meir Kahane: "Dear world, We're Sorry...."
By Rabbi Meir Kahane, (November, 1988)
The reason people are now trying to change the meaning of the term antisemitism is to negate the Jewish people and their distinctiveness. An anti-Semite is an anti-Jew and nothing else. Here is a common, historically uninformed view held by many today: "I sort of equate antisemitism to people calling someone a racist simply because they find hip-hop "culture" (loud rap, saggy pants, profanity, spastic semi-threatening hand gestures, etc.) repugnant, when in fact race might not have anything to do with it ... This "dummying down" of the English language is intentional! As in the book 1984, the leaders today hope that by sanitizing and weakening the language they can alter reality. And it working! "Antisemitism" is very specific in its meaning. "Racism" is very general. A racist might also be antisemitic but not all anti-Semites are racists. The more the language is weakened the less it can convey. Destroy Jewish distinctiveness and the Jews cease to exist as a people. Just like during other periods of increased Jew hatred, most people today are again turning against the Jews. This is nothing new. Consider where this kind of rising antisemitism led during the 1930's and 40's:

Hear, Israel, the Lord is our God, the Lord is One. ![]() ![]() What is Zion and Zionism?
To understand what a given word means in a specifc case we must carefully consider the context in which it is used. The word Zion (t'zion) means a few different things depending on its usage. The Hebrew word/name Zion appears at least 153 times in the Bible. The term is used as “Mount Zion,” “the daughter of Zion,” the “virgin daughter of Zion,” or simply as “Zion.” Zion is sometimes used in Scripture to reference the Sanhedrin, the Supreme Court of biblical Israel (the modern Sanhedrin presides as a religious court only). This ancient court held its sessions within the Temple and according to the rabbis is referenced in passages such as:
This understanding accords with the teachings of Rebbe Y'shua who referred to the rabbis (the elders of Israel) sitting authoritatively in the seat of Moshe. (Matthew 23:3 etc). Zion also refers to the Temple Mount (or Har haBáyith). This sacred hill is where the Beit HaMikdash or "House of Holy: the Temple once stood and will again reside during the Messianic Age.
And Zion is synonymous with the City of Jerusalem (Yerushaláyim), the city where David established his Kingdom:
Throughout scripture “Mount Zion” is synonymous with Mount Moriah, the site of the Temple, and the Holy City it watches over:
There is however another very significant meaning for the word Zion:
So then...the Sanhedrin, the elders of Israel who sit in the seat of Moshe (Matthew 23:2) are collectively known as Zion. The Beit HaMikdash where the Sanhedrin meet and where HaShem is worshiped is Zion. Mount Moriah, the Temple Mount, upon which the Beit HaMikdash will one day again arise to the glory of HaShem is Zion. Yerushaláyim, the Holy City of David and home of the Temple Mount is Zion. Eretz Israel, the Holy Land of which Yerushaláyim is the eternal capital is Zion. And Zion is People Israel, to whom Eretz Israel and Yerushaláyim were given as eternal positions. This was signified by Avraham's offer of his dear son, the pregentior of the Jewish people, on Mount Moriah. On that sacred site the two Beit HaMikdash stood and one day the third and eternal Temple will stand. In that Holy House the Sanhedrin will again oversee the divine service of the Elect of God, People Israel. Zion is adored by Almighty Adonai and:
As Rabbi Baruch S. Davidson tells us: The Hebrew word for Zion can be translated as “indication” or “marking.” The Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, of righteous memory, explains that the Jewish people are called Tzion by virtue of their study of Jewish texts and fulfillment of G-d’s commandments. This causes them to be distinguished, or marked, for their uniqueness. As it states in Jewish law, “When a physical object has a sign, a marking, should it be lost, the sign enables it to be returned to its owners.” So too, the Jewish nation has its marking; thus they are not lost among the rest of the world, and always return to their Owner. ZionismZionism is the philosophical and political conviction of the truth of the above points. Zionism is HaTikvah: The Hope of Israel and the world. HaTikvah

WASHINGTON (JTA) -- President Obama won 69 percent of the Jewish vote, according to an exit poll.
The poll, posted on CNN's website, was commensurate with projections in preelection polls by Gallup and the American Jewish Committee, among others, that Obama would win 65 percent to 70 percent of the Jewish vote.
Democrats and Republicans blitzed Jewish voters in swing states, particularly Ohio and Florida, ahead of the election.
Jews constituted 2 percent of the overall CNN response group, but the network did not reveal the total number of people polled, making it impossible to assess a margin of error.
Republicans noted the discrepancy between Tuesday's numbers and the 78 percent Obama garnered in 2008 exit polls.
Democrats, citing a more recent broader study of the 2008 results, now say that Obama earned 74 percent of the Jewish vote in that election and suggested that Tuesday's showing was within the margin of error.
On social media, Jews of both parties argued over whether Tuesday's results showed a substantial drop in Jewish support for Obama.
J Street and the Republican Jewish Coalition planned to release separate exit polls on Wednesday morning.
As I Expected, Obama Has Won (blame the GOP if you are unhappy!).
When the GOP chose Romney instead of a Conservative and/or a Nationalist Patriot Obama became the likely winner.
When Romney chose Ryan Obama's reelection became certain.
I'm only surprised it was this close.
Wanna talk about it?
