The Propaganda industry tells us that we must be
tolerant; that is tolerant of the things they demand. The propaganda industry is
run by Jews for Jews. They want us to believe their very profitable
Holocaust® Story. They made
Holocaust Denial into a crime, especially in
Germany where lots of people know the truth. So I do not say it is a pack of
lies, in Germany at all events.

Annoyed By Anti-Netanyahu Cartoon

Netanyahu cartoon in UK press angers Israeli groups

Jewish leaders in Britain and Israel are angry with a Sunday Times
cartoon that depicts Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu building a wall using
blood-red mortar.
Rupert Murdoch apologised on Monday for a "grotesque" cartoon in his
newspaper depicting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu building a
bloody wall trapping the bodies of Palestinians, after complaints from
Jewish groups.
The image, which shows Netanyahu holding a trowel dripping blood, was
published on Holocaust Memorial Day and carried the caption "Israeli
elections. Will cementing peace continue?"
The so-called "blood libel" - talk that Jewish peoples murder children
and use their blood in rituals - go back centuries.
The wall image by the weekly paper's cartoonist Gerald Scarfe was a
reference to the barrier that Israel has been building for a decade on
occupied West Bank territory.
The Sunday Times's acting editor was due to meet Jewish community leaders
in Britain on Tuesday to express his regrets over the cartoon, said a
spokesman for Murdoch's News International, the paper's publisher.
The paper says it was aimed at Netanyahu and not the Israeli people. It
said the timing of its publication was linked to the victory of Netanyahu's
party in last week's Israeli elections, not Holocaust Memorial Day.
Netanyahu's depiction is grossly offensive and unfair but that is only
par for the course for any politician when cartoonist Scarfe is at his
drawing-board.

A cartoon that appeared in this London's Sunday Times this week
depicting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu building a wall
with blood-red colored cement, trapping in between the bricks
Palestinian-looking figures, is causing the latest
is-it-or-is-it-not-anti-Semitism furor.
The usual suspects have all weighed in: the Anti-Defamation
League, the Board of Deputies of British Jews, and Israel's
ambassador to the United Kingdom, clamoring for the venerable
cartoonist Gerald Scarfe's head and asking how the pro-Israel Sunday
Time's proprietor, Rupert Murdoch, could allow such a travesty.
The accusation is straightforward enough. Scarfe's drawing is
classic anti-Semitism using typical motifs of Judeophobia, and is
doubly hateful for having appeared on international Holocaust
Remembrance Day.
It is hard to argue that 68 years after the liberation of
Auschwitz, the hatred of Jews has disappeared from the civilized
nations of western Europe, but there are more than enough real
manifestations of racism and xenophobia, directed at Jews and other
religious and ethnic groups in Britain and the rest of the
continent, for us to be spending our efforts confronting. Pillorying
Scarfe and his cartoon cheapens a noble cause, as this was not
anti-Semitic by any standard. Here are four reasons why.
1. It is not directed at Jews: There is
absolutely nothing in the cartoon which identifies its subject as a
Jew. No Star of David or kippa, and though some commentators have
claimed Netanyahu's nose in the cartoon is over-sized, at most this
is in line with Scarfe's style (and that of cartoonists) of slightly
exaggerating physical features. Jew-noses are prevalent in truly
anti-Semitic cartoons that routinely appear in Arab newspapers - you
can find them easily on the web. They are big, bulbous and hooked
snouts, and look nothing like Netanyahu's nose a-la-Scarfe.
Furthermore, Netanyahu is an Israeli politician who was just elected
by a quarter of Israeli voters, not a Jewish symbol or a global
representative of the Jews.
2. It does not use Holocaust imagery: It has
become generally accepted - justifiably I think - that comparing
Israel's leaders and policies to those of the Third Reich is
borderline, if not full-on anti-Semitism. Not only because there is
no comparable genocide in human history, but because choosing it to
describe the actions of the Jewish state is a nasty slur identifying
Israelis as the successors of the Holocaust's victims turned into
perpetrators of a second Holocaust. But there is nothing in Scarfe's
cartoon that can put the Holocaust in mind. Perhaps someone thinks
that the wall should remind us of the ghetto, but don't forget,
Scarfe is the original designer of Pink Floyd's The Wall. Should the
Sunday Times have not published the cartoon on International
Holocaust Memorial Day? Only if one believes that is a day in which
Israeli politicians have immunity from being caricatured. Such a
belief would certainly cheapen the memory of the Shoah. The Sunday
Times, as it names indicates, appears only on Sundays and this was
the end of elections week in Israel - when else did you expect them
to feature a cartoon of Netanyahu?
3. There was no discrimination: If Gerald Scarfe
had been a benign and gentle artist, treating the subjects of his
cartoons with due respect and reverence, sharpening his pencil only
on Israeli and Jewish figures, there would be grounds here for
assuming he was tainted by the most ancient of hatreds. Anyone who
has had even a casual glance at Scarfe's oeuvre of over half a
century knows that is not the case. Netanyahu's depiction is grossly
offensive and unfair, but that is only par for the course for any
politician when Scarfe is at his drawing-board. Scarfe has spent his
entire career viciously lampooning the high and mighty - Netanyahu
is in illustrious company.
4. This is not what a blood libel looks like:
Some have claimed that the blood-red cement Netanyahu is using in
the cartoon to build his wall indicates a blood libel motif. Well of
course it's blood but is anyone seriously demanding that no cartoon
reference to Israeli or Jewish figures can contain a red fluid? The
classic European blood libel, like many other classic European
creations, had a strict set of images which must always contain a
cherubic gentile child sacrificed by those perfidious Jews, his
blood to be used for ritual purposes. It was a direct continuation
of the Christ-killer myth. Scarfe's cartoon has blood-cement but no
blood libel components - it almost seems he was careful not to
include any small children among his Palestinian figures (one of the
eight is arguably an adolescent) so as not to have any sort of libel
scenery. The blood libel was a terrible feature of Jewish life in
Europe up until the beginning of the 20th century, and the myth
still occasionally emerges from between the cracks in some East
European backwaters to this day. To ascribe Scarfe's cartoon with
any of its features distorts another chapter of Jewish history.

Perhaps the writer would explain why Mr. Scarfe is unfair to
Netanyahu. He might struggle, which is why he will not.

QUOTE
In its edition of 27 January 2013 (Holocaust
Memorial Day), London's
Sunday Times published a cartoon by Scarfe depicting Israel's Prime
Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu paving a wall with the blood and bodies of
Palestinians, captioned "Israeli elections — will cementing peace
continue?".[11]
The cartoon's timing and content was condemned by a number of groups including
the
European Jewish Congress and
Board of Deputies of British Jews, with accusations of
anti-Semitism.[12][13]
The Sunday Times and Scarfe argued that the cartoon was clearly aimed
specifically at Netanyahu and his policies, and were in response to his election
win, rather than being related to Holocaust Memorial Day.[14][15]
The cartoon was also published in the Israeli newspaper
Haaretz,
where
Anshel Pfeffer discusses the cartoon in great detail giving four reasons
why, in his opinion, the cartoon is not anti-Semitic. British Chief Rabbi Lord
Sacks condemned the cartoon, saying "Whatever the intention, the danger of such
images is that they reinforce a great slander of our time: that Jews, victims of
the Holocaust, are now perpetrators of a similar crime against the Palestinians.
Not only is this manifestly untrue, it is also inflammatory and deeply
dangerous."[16]

Sacks is lying in his teeth but then he is a
