Rebecca Gould, Jewish author accused of antisemitism for criticizing Israel | The Marc Steiner Show – Everything Law and Order Blog

The question of historical and present antisemitism is at the heart of Zionism, though not always in the ways supporters of Israel would believe. In the effort to shield Israel from criticism of occupation and apartheid, organizations such as the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance have attempted to advance a broad, sweeping definition of antisemitism that includes all criticism of Israel. Rebecca Ruth Gould, author of “Erasing Palestine: Free Speech and Palestinian Freedom,” joins The Marc Steiner Show for a discussion on this trend and its implications for Palestinians, the progressive Jewish diaspora, and the wider politics of identity and racism.

  1. They view Palestinians as Amalek (Biblical enemy) and are commanded to erase their existence.

    'When your God has given you rest from all your enemies in the land he is giving you as a special possession, you must destroy the Amalekites and erase their memory from under heaven'
    Deuteronomy 25:19

  2. Apartheid has been an intrinsic part of Zionism since the 19th century, see books by Herzl. Already in 1917, Sir Edwin Montagu who was Jewish and a member of the British government heavily criticized Zionism. He wrote a scathing memoir against the Balfour letter and predicted what would come to pass if the British carried it out.

    Much later after the 1967 war, the then Israeli Labour government came up with the Allon Plan which was to annex nearly half of the West Bank from Jerusalem to the Jordan River and leave the isolated remainder as ghettos for the Palestinians. That wasn't implemented until far right wing Likud came to power in the late seventies. The two sides agreed on at least one thing.

    Antisemitism was a European problem, but one which they decided to export to Palestine as a "solution", essentially by the British who were the ones who made Israel possible. Censorship of critics of Israel goes back a ways. Look up the story of celebrated journalist Dorothy Thompson. Before WWII she was pro-Zionist. Then she visited Palestine just after the war and switched sides and wrote pro-Palestinian articles. She soon lost her jobs and was basically black-balled.

  3. What amazes me to this day is that anti-Palestinian racism even as a mere concept is never ever addressed. Where there is loss of life on both sides it is understood that seeming to take sides is not an abstract principle for people living in Israel especially if they are Zionist.
    However are we expected to believe that people Jewish or non Jewish who feel for the plight of a subjugated nation do not care about Palestinian people on a human level in the least, that they simply raise the issue because they are covertly or pro-actively anti-semitic . What kind of insulting and offensive gaslighting is this that is permitted free rein ?

  4. To paraphrase Oscar Wilde: antisemitism is the last resort of a Zionist scoundrel.

    Time we took courage over this nonsense and stood up for our freedom of thought and speech. Sticks and stones might break Palestinian bones, but names should never hurt us.

  5. The Holocaust is no excuse for what apartheid Israel has become—-in fact, the Holocaust is exactly why Israel SHOULD KNOW BETTER than to be treating Palestinians like disposable sub-humans.

  6. Anti-Semitism is ANY criticism of ANY Jew by ANY Gentile for ANY reason at ANY time. It is an utterly cynical accusation, and never made with any genuine care of the true motivations of the "anti-Semite."

  7. It is interesting to think about the semantics of the term anti-Semitic. In the Biblical context, I have learned that the descendants of Noah's son Shem are the Shemites or Semitic people. The lineage of Shem was chosen to fulfill the Most High God's purpose of redemption for mankind's fallen state. The question is about the in fact origin of a people claiming to be the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Only 1 Tribe out of the 12 Tribes of Jacob called Israel are genetically considered as Jews. This Tribe is Judah, which occupied the Kingdom of Judah and Judea as Judeans, or Jews. Then there are the descendants of Noah's son Japheth who converted to the culture and religion of the Hebrews and specifically the Israelite Hebrew descendants of Jacob. So, we must be definitive in the application of the term anti-Semitic. Modern day Jewry is Edom, and this fact is documented by Jewish scholarship.

  8. An ethnic Jew, who is the least bit critical of any Israeli policy towards the Palestinians, is now automatically branded anti-semitic, which is something right out of Himmler's playbook. Hey folks, Jimmy Carter, the President who brokered peace between Egypt and Israel, and won the Nobel Prize, describes the current state of Israel as "worse than apartheid". Is he an anti-semite? Seriously?

  9. Makes me wonder what Mossad have on the US government to continually get aid.
    I am not anti semite, just anti Zionist and anti bully. It is a disgusting situation which the US perpetuates by having Israels back.

  10. The Term „Antisemitism“ was invented by German Racists in the 19th Century.
    They wanted to make sure that they despised Jews not only or mainly for their Religion but mainly for their Race. Members of this alleged Race were Sarmatians, Arabians, Hebrews and some more closely linked People.
    Not only religious Hebrews but also religious Arabs consider themselves as Semites. Aggression against Arabs there for can also qualify as Antisemitism.
    Nowadays Rightwing Racist Erez Israel Fans use the Term against everybody who is not am Rightwing Racist Erez Israel Fan.
    The Term was invented from Hatemongers to spread Hate. Nowaday the Term is still used by Hatemongers to Spread Hate. The Word is so toxic, that nobody in Good Faith should use it.
    Again: The Word was invented by German Racists.

  11. They are imposters walking in holy land and acting like God curse on them already fullfiled when it’s not when Jesus down to earth from heaven.Yeah they are chosen people by God to be tested.

  12. I was 20 mins in until I realized that this conyis about a white Jewish woman being surprised she isn't treated like a white Jewish woman in other countries. I waisted 20 mins.

  13. Israel is a country near the med on the med under the bed and Solomon was an islamic shoe grinder who worked in a Palestinian chip shop looking for harry

  15. Costner stated disparaging remarks about mm after the flood in montecito . . He stated she wanted a
    Helicopter for herself
    Alone and he thought that self importance was disgusting !

  16. Marc thinks everyone that's against the Ukraine Proxy War is a "Putin Puppet", and he thinks he's a liberal or progressive or something. Lol! So that's fun.

  17. University is a building. It didn’t teach you anything. You were indoctrinated. Mostly by your own self. That put limits on your mind.

  18. In order to be 100% truthful you can’t care what others think of you. Money is fiat. Force at the store makes their paper money. So material can’t motivate. Land can’t be owned, unless you think it can 🤔 if you made imaginary borders and made human nature go to work. With a few pokes and prods here and there right? You might be able to get some wiped off the land. So you could steal their place beside God? Your crazy lmao

  19. I’m pretty sure it’s a geographical lie and also lying about this take over happening in the Middle East. It was about the takeover of Miskinak ministik (turtle island). The slaughter of billions of my people. That’s some secret info.

  20. One joke. How can you tell a Nazi from a Jewish person? You can’t. How did the Nazis round up Jewish people during WW2? How did they know who was Jewish and who wasn’t?

  21. There are a million Arabs living in Israel. Arabs are everywhere in Israel. Strange you didn’t mention that.

  22. Cornell West for president!
    Orthodox Jews in NY are anti Zionist ( at least the ones I saw) because it is morally incorrect.

  23. 26:05 unfortunately the same perspective isn't allowed for Nakba survivors. If a Palestinian talks about the genocide commited against them by Holocaust survivors and their descendants, and if Palestinians don't want to live with the people who murdered their relatives they're called antisemitic.

  24. Don't start with Me about Zionism and Wahhabism and NAZISM…My late Father Survived ww2 Germany under Hitler…We he knows what the BOLSHEVIKS AND ZIONISTS DID..

  25. There are some fears we have no right to express outside our psychiatrist's office. "I'm scared one of my black or trans colleagues might rape me." You'd lose your job. "I keep a suitcase packed in case this man gets elected, because I fear another Kristallnacht." Someone saying this on national news, with elections coming up, with nothing but self-asserted 'fears' to base it on, and saying it unchallenged – that is surely politicised.

  26. Thanks for this conversation. The State of Israel has politicized the term antisemitism, cheapeming it. I'm reminded of the Chicken Little fairytale.

  27. It seems that the freedom of Palestinians rests with the voices of enlightened Jews. European Jews cannot claim to be Semites. PALESTINIANS are!
