Racism among some Jewish Intellectuals
by Sam Hamod
No, this is not an anti-semitic article or an unjustified attack on anyone—it
is an attempt to clarify what’s going on with African American demands for
reparations for slavery and its aftermath, the attacks from the David
Horowitz, Elie Weisel and “The Holocaust Corporation.” This article also
examines why Philip Roth in his latest novel, THE HUMAN STAIN, likens African
Americans to apes and why John Entine is bringing up that old cliché that
African American athletes are what they are and excel because of their
genetic breeding (something akin to Hitler’s attack on African Americans
after the German Olympics of 1930s). And, why it is that the U.S. media is
taking a hands-off approach to these dastardly and inhumane racial slurs?
Why are such writers as Roth, Weisel, Entine and other Jews suddenly turning
into racists—or have they always been racists but until now been afraid to
come out in the public with it? Do they think that by attacking African
Americans that the other white supremacists will forget about them and focus
on African Americans, Farrakhan, Latinos and Arabs and let them alone?
Perhaps.
On the other hand, there are Jewish writers such as Anthony Lewis, Steve
Kowit and Naom Chomsky who want nothing to do with this new Nazi-ism of some
of their fellow Jews. Shelby Foote, who passed himself off as a plain
white southerner, has now made it plain that he is a Jew, which is fine; but
I, and I’m sure others, were shocked when he likened the Ku Klux Klan to the
French Resistance of WW II !! Scott Simon of NPR recently inferred that
though Daniel Boone and others, who were anti-Mexican racists and the
spiritual children of Cortez, at the Alamo, should be admired because they
followed their principles and their orders; doesn’t this sound like the Jews
should have admired the SS troops who killed them because they believed in
their principles? !! Have these men such as Roth, Horowitz, Simon, Entine
and Weisel lost their minds—or are they just echoing a long felt feeling that
may have pervaded many Jews that blacks, “schvartza”, were and still are
inferior to God’s “chosen people?” Perhaps the rise of white supremacists
has allowed these men to join the other “white men” in condemning and
attacking African Americans.
Before we go further, let me explain, I am not African American and the hue
of my skin is white.
First, let us understand that over 5 times as many African Americans died in
the American slave trade as died in the holocaust. But let it also be known
that among those millions executed, many were not Jews but were Poles,
Russians, other Slavic peoples and French, Catholics, Protestants and
atheists. However, the Holocaust Corporation, as I and many Jews call it, has
decided that the holocaust that happened against Africans who were the
forefathers of our present African Americans, the indigenous Americans, also
called the Native Americans, Amer-Indians, etc., and the driving out of 8
million Palestinians from their homes and their continued brutality at the
hands of Israel, should not be called “holocausts” because the Jewish
“Holocaust Corporation” has deemed only Jews could suffer a “holocaust.”
Not only that, but if anyone raises a question about this holocaust
corporation or against Israel or any Jewish writer, they are called
“anti-semites.” This is another distortion of the language and of truth.
Thus, not only has this “holocaust corporation” usurped the term
“holocaust” for themselves exclusively, but they also have stolen the
linguistic definition of “semitic.” ACTUALLY, SEMITIC IS A LANGUAGE GROUP,
NOT A RACIAL GROUP, IN FACT, IF THERE IS AN ORIGINAL GROUP, IT’S THE
ABYSSINIANS WHO WERE SPEAKING AMHARIC BEFORE THERE WAS A HEBREW LANGUAGE; AT
THAT TIME THERE ARE THE ARAMAIC SPEAKERS, WHO WERE ARABS AND PEOPLE LIKE
ABRAHAM, AND THEN LATER JEWS, THEN CAME, AT ABOUT THE SAME TIME, ARABIC AND
HEBREW-- THESE ARE THE SEMITIC LANGUAGES. ONCE AGAIN, SEMITIC IS NOT
A RACIAL GROUP; IT IS A LANGUAGE FAMILY MADE UP OF ARAMAIC, AMHARIC, ARABIC
AND HEBREW—IT IS NOT A TERM FOR JEWS ALONE.
Also, for the sake of accuracy, Abraham spoke Aramaic, not Hebrew—so much for
Hebrew being God’s language!
Now we come to David Horowitz and his recent ad in the Brown University
Student Newspaper in which he gave his reasons for denying reparations to
African Americans. In his allegations, he did not address any of the real
reasons that African Americans sought reparations—namely, the destruction of
large families who were brought to America as slaves and then split up, the
deaths of so many during the passage to America, the years of slavery and
brutality visited upon African Americans, then, the aftermath of slavery
which was harmful discrimination that went on, and continues to this day in
the workplace, in
