Israel Matzav: Video: National Security Adviser tells anti-Semitic joke
I am commenting on another blogger article from a blog called Israel Matzav and if I misquote this blogger or his blog then I deeply apologize. To summarize my thoughts and feelings with the blog the joke told at this meeting or conference is both offensive and anti-Semitic and that a senior advisor to our President made such a joke is unacceptable. It is true that if we are to have honest and open dialogue about the Middle East Peace Process we must have intelligent, informed and unbiased debate representatives from this country intervening in the process. I would actually submit that the peace process in the Middle East is an Israeli affair and not an American affair. How Israel conducts itself is no concern of the Americans even though they are our friends and long-time allies at least in the sense of forcing either side to accept America's roadmap to peace. To come back to the original topic the fact that an American aide is making Anti-Semitic jokes calls into question the Obama administration's motive in seeking Middle East Peace. Israel has the absolute right to exist a free and democratic state and if Palestine renounces terrorists and terrorism it has the right to exist in peace. Obama has done some really questionable things to Israel since becoming President which call into question whether he is anti-Israel and if he does not take serious action to distance himself from this anti-Semitic ex-General then he is pushing another wedge between US-Israeli relations. I am writing this opinions as a Muslim so I sympathize with Palestine but that does not divorce me from reality and the fact that Israel is being attacked unfairly here by the terrorist regime Hamas and the incompetent Obama White House.
P.S. I put this an afterthought this joke could also be construed to a lesser extent as harming Islam by reinforcing the stereotype of the "Taliban" aka extremist Muslim who rants and raves about hating Israel and Jews. This is troublesome because it reinforces a stereotype of both Jews and Muslims namely that we are mortal enemies set in an eternal war against one another. I am Muslim and I do not hate or dislike Jews and I do not hate or dislike Israel. I view Judaism as a brother religion to Islam we are both children of Abraham. I am taking a stand against jokes that bash Judaism because they are inexcusable and Judaism is an Abrahamic religion and I am against Islamic jokes as a Muslim your joke is not funny sir so sit down and shut the HELL UP!
