[QUOTE][I][B]The American Board of Rabbis Condemns SC Senator Ernest Hollings Blatant Anti-Semitism and Call for His Immediate Resignation [/B] [/I]
By unanimous vote, the American Board of Rabbis drafted a resolution demanding that Senator Ernest "Fritz" Hollings immediately resign his position in the Senate, and further demand that the Democratic Party condemn Hollings blatant and overt anti-Semitism, as well.
New York (PRWEB) May 25, 2004 -- The American Board of Rabbis (ABR) condemned the words and action of South Carolina Democrat Ernest "Fritz" Hollings, who at 82, has continued his career of anti-Semitic diatribes against Jews and the State of Israel. By a unanimous vote taken on Monday, May 24, the ABR drafted a resolution demanding that Senator Hollings immediately resign his position in the Senate, and further demand that the Democratic Party condemn Hollings blatant and overt anti-Semitism, as well.
In a speech Friday on the Senate floor, for the second time this month, Senator Hollings suggested that presidents and lawmakers for years have followed Jewish policies prescribed by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). Hollings cries of a "Jewish cabal" are reminiscent of age-old anti-Jewish conspiracy theories -- alleged Israeli/Jewish plans for world domination or allegations of Israeli actions that are eerily similar to medieval blood libels. According to Rabbi Mordechai Friedman, President of the American Board of Rabbis, "His presence taints the entire Senate as a mockery of American Liberty."
Hollings also suggested that President George Bush agreed to the war plan to secure Jewish votes for his re-election campaign. Even Senator John Kerry's New York campaign co-chair, former New York City mayoral candidate Mark Green, said Sunday that Kerry should denounce Hollings for a column he wrote earlier this month blaming the Iraq war on Israel. "It was wrong and all good faith Americans - Jewish or not - should denounce it," stated Green. But, Kerry has refused thus far to repudiate Hollings' statements.
The truth is that in his 38 years in the Senate, Hollings has track record of voting against Israel, and even once, on the Senate floor, referred to Jewish colleague Senator Howard Metzenbaum, as the "senator from B'nai B'rith." Time and again he has made remarks that offended Blacks, Hispanics, Japanese, and African leaders ââ¬â and he has apologized each and every time, retracting his statements. Yet to his most recent statements, published in three South Carolina newspapers, Senator Hollings said, "I donââ¬â¢t apologize for this column. I want them to apologize to me for talking about anti-Semitism."
According to Rabbi Mordechai Friedman, President of the American Board of Rabbis, "It is pathetic that such an anti-Semitic pariah such as Hollings is permitted to stay for one day longer and cast votes on matters of life and death for US troops and civilians. He is a disgrace to the Senate, and a disgrace to our Nation." Rabbi Friedman continues, "Hollings is an unpatriotic disgrace to the American Flag and if he does not immediately resign, he should be impeached. Furthermore, in Genesis, G-d tells Abraham, the founder of the Jewish people, 'I will bless those who bless you [Israel] and him who curses you [Israel], I will curse.' And by cursing the Jewish people, Hollings has invoked the wrath of G-d upon himself."

To see how this kind of attack has ruined others in years past who opposed Zionist control of Congress, see this article by Dr. Lilienthal.

[CENTER][B]J. William Fulbright: A Giant Passes [/B] [/CENTER]
By Alfred M. Lilienthal
April/May 1995
While the late senator is well known for introducing in 1945 the legislation that created the Fulbright Scholarship program, and for his outspoken opposition to continued U.S. intervention in Vietnam, all but forgotten is his fearless intervention in the Israeli-Palestinian dispute, where he challenged the Zionist lobby and its control over members of both parties and the five chief executives with whom he served.

Kikes wag the dog with passion, full of self-righteous belief in their status of being God's pets. What an ugly sight, those cucarachas are. :caiphas: = :dung:

If Fritz really and truly had a "track record of voting against Israel" he would not have been allowed on the Dukakis ticket. Bet your bottom dollar on that.
Fritz is scoring the easiest of Tough Guy Points - he's 82 and on his way out and is [admirably] taking the position "let them scream their Jew asses off, they can't hurt me now".
Now, Fritz had 40-odd years to say these things, and maybe even to [I]do [/I] something about Jewish domination of America - which mostly got cemeented into place during his watch. But a politician is a politician - as long as there was another election in the cards, he opted not to share these sorts of thoughts with us. I'm sure his own shame at silently letting it happen to keep his cushy position, fueled a lot of what he [I]did [/I] finally say.

The wrath of G-d? Man, these rabbis sound like Al Queda. In other news, anyone catch Rep. Moran's support of the Global Anti-Semitism Monitoring Bill? The utter monstrosity of a piece of legislation proposes a State Department department to "monitor and combat" "anti-Semitism" worldwide. Kinda like outsourcing the Mossad, as one commentator put it. Anyway, Moran probably signed on for the bill in the hopes of avoiding the wrath of G-d.

Below are some excerpts from notes I have been compiling. There is a coherence, most especially regarding blind hatred by Hebrews.
[QUOTE]Those who pursued Mr. Nixon with no sense of sagacity nor mercy could be represented by the Jewess, Barbara Tuchman, who won two Pulitzer prizes for history. In February 1975 Ms. Tuchman wrote in [I]Newsweek[/I] magazine one of those columns which only a smug American Jew could write. The basic message of her bleating was the historical tendency for others to blame Jews for their own shortcomings. According to Ms. Tuchman, without the existence of Israel the Arabs would be subject to no restraint in the region. Hence, the United States would have no leverage. Ms. Tuchman flailed Senator [COLOR=Red]William Fulbright [/COLOR] for saying the Jewish lobby controlled Congress and General George Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, for saying Jews controlled the media. Ms. Tuchman did not challenge the validity of the charges. Then Ms. Tuchman compared the reception at the United Nations by the Arab-African-Chinese-Third World bloc for Palestinian Guerilla leader Arafat to the message of Mein Kampf, which the world preferred to ignore. Closing her mini-opus, she remarked that American Jewry had learned the restored sovereignty of Israel signified a huge difference with the recent past. American Jewry had a legitimate reason and right to lobby and advance what they perceived as their interests. ([I]Newsweek[/I], Feb 3, 1975, p11 (column by Barbara Tuchman)[/QUOTE]American lives were of secondary or no consideration. [QUOTE]This historian was the same one who wrote a letter to the New York [I]Times[/I] of May 30, 1967 when Arab countries, principally Egypt, were attacking Israel. While her state of Israel was engaged in battle, Ms. Tuchman baldly stated "the integrity and security, not to say its survival is a closer concern of ours than that of South Vietnam". Forthrightly she wrote of America's reputation being at stake and of the need for America to take straightforward independent action with courage and conviction. ([I]NYT[/I], May 30, 1967, p20)
That there were almost a half million troops of America in Vietnam did not concern Ms. Tuchman, nor did the possible effects on these troops by an effort to help Israel by the United States. She appraised the goyim as distinctly secondary considerations. General Brown certainly was aware of these types of thoughts, and one must suspect the same of Senator Fulbright. Nor was she alone in her perceptions. Senator Wayne Morse of Oregon had fiercely criticized the American war in Vietnam, but when Israel was attacked, he advocated a show of force by America in the Gulf of Aqaba. ( [I]NYT[/I], May 29, 1967, p2)[/QUOTE][I][B]Israel uber alles!!![/B][/I]
[QUOTE]In assessing the performance of John Kennedy to the Bay of Pigs invasion Ms. Tuchman stated JFK showed "[I]admirable resolve[/I]" in making the hard decision to not send in Marines or the Army to rescue men abandoned to perish or be captured. (Barbara Tuchman, [I]March of Folly: From Troy to Vietnam[/I], p284 Ballantine, 1985) Ms. Tuchman's senses of compassion and honor were narrowly funneled to issues involving Jews. Reading Ms. Tuchman, one would never comprehend the great killings of the 20th century were committed by Stalin, Mao and Hirohito. All three supervised mass killings greater than Hitler's.[/QUOTE]Even now I find it difficult how this smug Jewess could write such a comment that denigrated brave men who died or suffered. As ever, only Jews mattered.

Edward,
Interesting that you posted this material about Tuchman, as I have recently finished her March of Folly. Interesting book. There are areas where I have disagreements with her. She is the quintessential C.F.R. "court historian."
