More on Weiss

From Z-word:

What I have had is an education, of sorts, into J-Street itself. What the conference has been lacking in terms of genuine insight has been more than compensated for by gossip opportunities: the unctuous Max Blumenthal orchestrating a cheap laugh at Elie Wiesel’s expense; the decision of J-Street’s student arm to drop the “pro-Israel” bit of the mother organization’s “pro-Israel, pro-peace” tagline; the booing of liberal Rabbi Eric Yoffie of the Union of Reform Judaism; the presence of toxic, Israel-hating obsessives like Philip Weiss and Richard Silverstein under the veneer of an openness which was not, it seems, that open;

Another voice denounces Philip Weiss for antisemitism

Great description of Philip Weiss' intent:


Among the many blogs on the list that propagate views similar to those of Ben White - i.e. a virulent anti-Zionism that doesn’t worry about drifting into antisemitic language and themes, preference for the “one-state solution” and open disdain for the peace process, which is often reflected in contempt for Fatah and vicious attacks on the current Palestinian prime minister Salam Fayyad, - are Counterpunch, Electronic Intifada, Jews sans frontieres, Lawrence of Cyberia, and Mondoweiss.

Another expose' of Philip Weiss

Stolen from Z Word Blog
http://blog.z-word.com/


I don’t know who Jeff Blankfort is but from his post I would guess that it would be a waste of my time to answer his simplistic message.
As for Philip Weiss, there is something insane with a “Jewish” blogger who defends Patrick Buchanan against charges of antisemitism (he writes anti Israel columns for Buchanan’s online magazine)

and is quoted by stormfront (the pro Nazi website):

Philip Weiss has written that all Jews should assimilate at the New York Observer (before he was fired from that magazine) and believes erroneously that Norman Mailer “assimilated” (gave up being Jewish) and should not be considered a Jewish writer.
I don’t know if Philip Weiss is an antisemite but he certainly loves the company of antisemites.

Thanks to Jacob Arnon for unknowingly contributing this knowledge to my blog!

Finally, Why Richard Weiss posts antisemitic bullshit

javs October 2, 2009 at 9:56 pm
The hiarchy…abbass is not legitimate and the facts will not be swayed regardless of him. what was done will never be forgotten …not any of the 110 years of crimes against humanity, this last one was only one of so many times and countless lives teminated by the usa tax dollars and cult you all call jewish or zionism either one doesn’t matter you all have put hitler to shame,…and you all wonder why..still.This shows the trueness of nature in a people as a whole. The supporters of these types of cults being blind and ignorant does not excuse anyone from the laws either international or moral. Every dog has its day and believe it they will have theirs..the holocaust obviously was a lesson but one not learned after the immoral 101 what is next nukes on parade by the cult with the most or a beating down of society as subhumans not ranked in the same as the scumbags who thrive in the cult you call judism

The Holocaust was a lesson? What type of lesson?“the scumbags who thrive in the cult you call judism” I love your blatant hatred of Jews. It exposes this site for what it really is. Just another hate site. Please post as often as possible.

You’re right–javs’s post is antisemitic crap and I hope Phil deletes it. And bans jav, for that matter.
Your own post, though, is utterly cynical. You don’t want to deal with serious criticism of Israel, so you want javs and others to post as much antisemitism as possible. Which shows you’re not really concerned about the antisemitism–you just want to use it for your own purposes.

Julian, the lesson “was” never again. Now it’s do it to them before they can do it to us.


5 Mooser October 3, 2009 at 12:08 pm
Donald, he won’t delete it. He just told me by e-mail it must be possible for “non-Jews to talk about Jews”.And I’m sure Phil knows the religious bona fides of every person who posts here!
Must suck to be his age and simply not have figured out that your Mom isn’t some kind of Goddess, but just an ordinary person who is wrong about a lot. I do sympathise, after all, if his Mom is divine, what does that say about Phil?

Witty and some asshole spar over the draft in Israel

It appears that Witty triumphs over another witless antisemite who is cherished by Philip Weiss.


Chaos4700 October 3, 2009 at 10:01 am
So now I’m confused, Witty. How exactly does it make you feel that in Israel, being true Jewish person and being a soldier are made synonymous? Does that bother you that the Jewish faith in Israel is being transmogrified into a proverbial “army of God?” How does that jive with your supposed liberal values?

If you had just asked the first question, “How do you feel about universal draft?”, then we could have conversed.
Instead you felt compelled to insert rhetoric, warring in words, rather than listening, self-inquiring and expressing.
We could go far, if you choose Chaos. But that would not be chaos, it would be a grassroots organic order.
Are you familiar with the two dominant strains of anarchist thought? (Chaos or Mutual Aid?)


11 Chaos4700 October 3, 2009 at 10:10 am
Excuse me but there’s a big difference between a country having a universal draft, a country tying that universal draft to their religious faith.
You’re dodging the question rather conspicuously.


12 Richard Witty October 3, 2009 at 11:27 am
Chaos,I’m not clear of the question that you are asking.
I’m also not sure why when you ask a question it seems more like a taunt than a question.

Philip Weiss is so afraid of the truth. (But what antisemite isn't?)

This was posted to Mondo Lies, but it will never see the light of day on that site:

As my comments are never posted, possibly due to that fact that antisemites, like Citizen, hate facts, it is pointless for me to correct the auther on why a map in a synagogue has no need to reflect US government policy.

Awaiting moderation; the watchwords of the modern day neo-nazi. Any wonder it exists on Philip Weiss’s site?
