A Blood Libel

What is a blood libel? Blood libel (also blood accusation) is a false accusation or claim that religious minorities, usually Jews, murder children to use their blood in certain aspects of their religious rituals and holidays. Historically, these claims—alongside those of well poisoning and host desecration—have been a major theme in European persecution of Jews. Jewish history is sprinkled with persecution, usually preceded by a downturn in the economic cycle and followed by blatant and groundless anti-semitic fabrications.

The world, shocked by the atrocities of the holocaust, embraced Jewish culture and facilitated the birth of the Jewish State of Israel. Many wars later, the miracle that is Israel, shines a light upon us. This was made easier by one of the greatest economic upswings in history. Antisemitism was a subject discussed by intellectuals over the dinner table, while under the table, a latent form of antisemitism, more sophisticated, displaces the more aggresive type, and from a completely different direction. The year is 2008. An economic contraction measuring 12 on the richter scale takes place. 

The Islamic world, unable to compete in a world of expanding populations and food shortages, explodes into violence. Real unemployment in the US is closer to 15% (not the official 9%). An even larger debt bubble is created to replace the previously deflated balloon. The largest fraud in the history of mankind is perpertrated as close to a trillion dollars is transferred from the US public to save the banking system. Around the world, governments and central banks print fiat money in a desperate attempt to prevent economic collapse. Inflation begins to raise its monstrous head and another emerging demon casts its shadow from a dark corner. 

Extreme Islam senses the perfect opportunity. Hiding behind a curtain of political correctness, they are creating an unlikely bond with the extreme left and exploiting left leaning Jewish organizations in the west (these organizations tiptoe around trying not to antagonize the anti-semites, heaven forbid they might feel offended!). So anti-semitism once again is on the rise. This time, in a more sophisticated form. Whether a member of parliament in Norway, who tells us that the holocaust did not happen, or an extremeley dangerous nutbar in Iran, uniting under the same flag, it tells the same story. BDS, Qaia and others, all part of the same bandwagon, now have a new fabrication.....Israeli Apartheid.

If anybody thinks this is not part of the same trickle, or another conspiracy theory, Israel's Military Intelligence has launched a new section that will be responsible for tracking foreign organizations located overseas, in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, which aim to delegitimize the State of Israel. From the point of view of a Jew, ask yourself what this would remind you of ? Economic mayhem, Money printing (now on a worldwide scale) and mind boggling lies about Israel. I know what it reminds me of. Some say its in the genes. Clearly the target is the demonization of the Jewish state, Israel being the last line of defence that Jews have. Imagine if there was no Israel...... 

We live in a dangerous world and we need every real friend we have. As for those who insist on shaking hands with a crocodile, we wish you luck. The crocodile is smiling. Go for it. The blood will be real.

Courage is not simply one of the virtues but the form of every virtue at the testing point - C.S. Lewis
