Dov Fischer; American Spectator "It denigrates what Jews faced when Democrats leverage our Shoah tragedy for their hoped-for gain"
" I am an Orthodox Jew. I am voting for Trump, as are 95 percent of the people I know in my community. I assure you that we are not voting for death camps, gas chambers, and crematoria. We simply are voting to make America great again and to fix what Harris broke during the past four years."
"No one in the world knows more about identifying a Hitler — or any other Nazi — than do Orthodox Jews.
"Hitler ultimately went after all Jews and also homosexuals and Romani people (“Gypsies”). But he and his Nazi crew particularly went after Orthodox Jews. Before they proceeded with the death camps, they loved spotting Orthodox Jews walking in the street and bloodying them, pummeling them to the ground and kicking them senseless. They made a sport of photographing themselves forcibly cutting Orthodox Jews’ beards and extended sideburns (payot). They attacked Jewish religious symbols particularly dear to and associated with Orthodox Jews. In their Nazi propaganda organ, Der StΓΌrmer, political race cartoons depicted Jews regularly in the form of Haredi Orthodox Jews.
"If Puerto Ricans were angered by that stupid “joke” spoken by an idiot “comedian” at the recent Trump Madison Square Garden event, how do you imagine Orthodox Jews feel when cynically despicable Democrats like Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, and Tim Walz throw around terms like “Hitler” and “Nazi,” essentially leveraging those absolutely most evil of images, hoping for cynical political gain? (READ MORE: A Jackass of a ‘Comedian’ in Madison Square Garden) "We are ever so deeply outraged.
"It denigrates what Jews (and homosexuals and Romani people) faced during the 1940s when the most evil of Democrats without souls leverage our Shoah tragedy for their hoped-for gain. It is hard to find a parallel for such cynical political exploitation of a people’s grief and tragedy.
"In southern California, there is a congressional district in Glendale, California, with a very large Armenian-American population. Can you imagine if local elections there all centered around each side calling the other side by the names of the most evil Turkish perpetrators of the Medz Yeghern, the Armenian genocide? Just trying to grab a few votes here and there in Glendale by regularly telling voters, “This candidate will cause a new Medz Yeghern.” Or, “He will be a return to Enver Pasha and April 24, 1915!” Or, “No, it is my opponent who is the true Talaat Pasha!” Imagine that. Ask Armenian-Americans how that would play in Glendale.
"For that matter, how about if American candidates for office regularly would campaign on such similar themes, repeating over and over and over:
" 'If you vote for Rashida Tlaib, you are voting for a Hamas terrorist who will turn America into a country where babies are burned, women are raped without limit, even dead women are similarly defiled, and random civilians are beheaded. So a vote for Tlaib is a vote for rape, beheading, and burning people. Don’t let her bring Hamas into our District.' ” . . .
New York Gov’s commission cowers while Jewish workers in New York are forced to pay dues to a union that hates them.
"New York law says I must accept the union’s representation anyway — even if its leaders overlook or aid those seeking to drive me from campus."
"When New York Gov. Kathy Hochul commissioned a report on the City University of New York’s rampant antisemitism, I was hopeful that, after my years of warnings about Jew-hatred on campus, its perpetrators were about to be held accountable.
"Imagine my disappointment when the report, released in late September, never mentioned one of the biggest proponents of anti-Jewish sentiment at CUNY: the faculty union that claims to represent me.
"As an openly Zionist Jew, I’ve attracted my share of hostility from radical faculty members who are leveraging the union’s power over professors like me to advance their warped political agenda.
"And the problem starts at the very top." . . .
