Jews are literally “cringing” not at the horrific crimes against underage children perpetrated by Jeffrey Epstein and his famous friends, but rather at how ‘jewish’ Epstein’s name is, and how it will give “antisemites” more proof to support their “irrational hatred” of Jews:
When I heard that Jeffrey Epstein had been arrested on sex-trafficking charges, I cringed. I’m sure I was not the only Jewish person who did, or whose first thought was, ‘Why does this sorry excuse for a human have to be Jewish?’ And I probably also wasn’t the only Jewish person whose second thought was, ‘Given that he is Jewish, why does he have to have such a Jewish-sounding name?’
It’s a natural response to a people who have been hounded by anti-Semites, to cringe when one of our own behaves in such a horrifying manner. And of course, it didn’t take long for the anti-Semites to crawl out of their holes with the reactions that prompted mine.
It may be natural to fear the wrongdoing of our own not just for its moral ugliness but for the attacks against the rest of us that such wrongdoing will surely engender. But it’s also a fallacy.
As Holocaust scholar Deborah Lipstadt once told me when I interviewed her about her book, Antisemitism: Here and Now, it doesn’t matter how Jews behave. Anti-Semitism is not based on anything rational. Rooted in a mythology of secret Jewish power, money, control, and dual loyalties, anti-Semitism and Jewish wrongdoing have little to do with each other.
We all cringe as Jews when one of our own, with such a Jewish-sounding name, turns out to be a horrible person (and it doesn’t get much more horrible than being a child rapist). But cringing over Jewish deplorables is at the end of the day something of a category error. It’s the wrongdoing, not the Jewishness, that should horrify us.
After all, anti-Semitism is a virus that does not depend on the behavior of actual Jews. They would hate us, anyway. Lipstadt compares anti-Semitism to herpes — “It’s disgusting, but it doesn’t go away. Come a moment of stress in society, come a moment of tension into someone’s life, it can pop up,” she said. Anti-Semitism is the herpes in society. “It keeps asserting itself at times of tension, at times of dislocation, and that’s one of the reasons we’re seeing it.”
They hate us when a Jew is successful in the public eye, and they hate us when a Jew is a villain in the public eye. It makes no difference.
This is why if Israel went away, or if Zionism had never existed to begin with, so-called “left-wing anti-Semitism” would still be around; it would simply have taken another form. Anti-Zionism is the excuse, the drawing-room and academic-conference respectability the anti-Semitism virus feeds upon. But it can always find something else.
It’s the same with Epstein. Any anti-Semite using Epstein as an excuse to beat up on Jews would have found another excuse, too.
Just as Muslims should not be forced to denounce “bad apples” among their own, Jews should not have to feel any special obligation to denounce Epstein just because he’s a Jew.
It’s natural to feel shame when one of our own turns out to be a villain, just as it’s natural to feel pride when one of our own is successful in politics, sports or entertainment. The thing is, that shame is playing by the anti-Semites’ rules. It’s assuming a collective responsibility for one man’s actions.
We can reverse engineer a Jewish success story to make it about their Jewish upbringing, but then we have to accept the other side of the coin: Is it his Jewishness that makes Epstein a horrible person? The anti-Semites will say yes (and they already have), but we don’t need to fall into the trap of claiming “Not all Jews.”
Many Jews are especially angry at their fellow Jews who are in the public eye for misdeeds. They are angry because they’re Jews, and so should have had a better understanding of what it means to act unethically. While understandable, it’s still playing by the anti-Semites’ rules.
Instead, condemn the man for his misdeeds, but leave the Jews out of it. Epstein isn’t going to contribute to anti-Semitism. If it wasn’t Epstein, it would be somebody else.
So basically the Jews want their cake and eat it, too. As the writer of the piece above admits, when a Jew is successful, they want to attribute that success to his or her jewish racial identity, but when a Jew engages in criminal or evil doings, they hypocritically recoil at the very notion that it has anything to do with jewishness. It is jewish hypocrisy that is, at its heart, completely irrational, whereas “antisemitism” is merely the result of recognizing that hypocrisy and demanding that Jews come to terms with it and recognize it for what it is.
If it was acceptable for Jesus Christ to call Jews out on their hypocrisy, then it should be acceptable for any and all Christians to follow by His example. Jews suffer not from “irrational” criticism but rather from the lack of it. Jews need to be held accountable, not only as individuals but as a group, but the fact that they refuse to be accountable in this way is yet more proof that they cannot possibly be true descendants of the Israelites of the Old Testament, who repeatedly accepted God’s chastisement both for their individual behavior and for their collective sin as a people. Perhaps it would be in everyone’s best interest if Jews would simply give up this charade that they are Israelites and accept who they really are: double-minded hypocrites of dubious racial identity.
Not just Epstein
Harvey Weinstein, Dustin Hoffman, Jeffrey Tambor, Mark Halperin, Leon Wieseltier, James Toback, Israel Horowitz, Al Franken, James Levine, Jeremy Piven, Woody Allen, Brett Ratner, Michael Oreskes, Bruce Weber, Jeffery Epstein— all have been accused in one way or another of sexual assault or harassment. Let’s not forget that Anthony Weiner is currently in a cell in a federal penitentiary in Massachusetts for sending obscene material to a minor, and Rabbi Barry Freundel will be spending the next five years behind bars for videotaping women as they prepared for a ritual bath. The list is even longer
*Forgot notorious Jew Roman Polanski – in 1970’s he plied an underage teenage girl with alcohol and drugs before committing statutory rape. Then fled US justice to hide in France and continue his film making career for the decades since. His apologists and supporters are mostly more Jews.
Jews are behind pornography industry in US, which has been instrumental in the push toward the degradation of women. But this is hardly surprising, the Jewish Talmud states gentile (non Jewish) women are merely menstrual filth to be used as slaves and for sexual purposes. This is the social vision of Talmudic Jewry towards the women of the very societies they have sought to be allowed into. This is at direct odds with a Christian social vision of a sacred union and wife in the home.
…I’m tellin’ ya, yous jew people “need to CEASE”, and be more outspoken “as a group” against such crimes as TRAITOROUS: “stealing nuclear materials and secrets”, so- dubbed “9-11” [and like- acts] celebration, “lolita- EXPRESS [like federal express, with a sense- OF URGENCY!?]- CHILD RAPING” type CATASTROPHIC crimes committed by members of YOUR group, AND NEED TO REPRESENT MORE compassion and cooperation- toward your fellow “humans” and our earth…don’t act like you don’t know what I’m talking about- YOU KNOW “EXACTLY” WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT!…
I’m Jewish on my Dad’s side. Incidentally, he didn’t care for Jews either, just considered it an accident of birth. Anyway, I grew up like many other people, with the conventional Holocaust narrative, but after reading lots of history have had to conclude that a lot of it is bogus.
Also, there are a hell of a lot of reasons why non Jews turn ” anti semitic”. I don’t condone Nazism, but the Weimar Republic disaster certainly explained why Germans of that time thought the way they did.
And I’m so sick and tired of the nonstop reparations demands, and Germans being bashed constantly because of the Nazi period.
But the main point of this little tirade is having grown up on the “inside”, so to speak, it never fails to amaze me that Jews, just like blacks, can’t or won’t face the reasons why people have and do turn against them. Jews have learned nothing from history during the last 2000 years. So, this whole latest paranoia episode from the Jewish community amuses me, too.
Well said, ‘although it’s ridiculous to compare the Jewish communist bolsheviks to blacks. Let’s remember the Jewish people have been evicted from 109 countries since 250 AD. The poverty stricken, drug addicted, inner cities are by the design of the powers that run this country ‘ Jewish.
…thank you David for attempting to “make that distinction” and “clear that up” for her…sheesh!
This is why Jews are always pushing to criminalize any questioning of orthodox Holocaust narrative. Likewise why Jews claim only Jewish historians should be allowed to write about the Holocaust. Because if people look harder – at say Red Cross data from war years, the claimed Jewish numbers just don’t add up. On closer inspection, for instance, Jews have long claimed Russian and Polish deaths in war camps into the Jewish numbers. This is why Jews have worked so hard and spent so much money to get the Red Cross records sealed to stop it being publicly available. The Jews are so invested and have produced so much media promoting their orthodox Holocaust narrative, that if core elements can be credibly challenged (like the six million number), then this ethnic group’s entire credibility and its perrenially claimed ‘victim status’ are pulled into legitimate question, so for Jews the project has become too big to fail, and they will do anything to maintain the narrative.
A quote from the article, “anti-Semitism is a virus that does not depend on the behavior of actual Jews”. When looking at the reasons that the Jewish People have been unwelcome in numerous countries, it’s most often that they do NOT adhere to the civil laws of that country. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn in “Two hundred Years Together” writes extensively on Jewish disregard for civil law.
Martin Luther wrote, in 1543 I think, that he was of the opinion that Jews lied.
None of the above mentioned examples are a virus. To print such quotes erases all credibility.
I visited your “about” page.
Said and I quote, “As peaceful, law-abiding Christians, we do not advocate violence or any illegal activity. These means are ineffective and counterproductive in this spiritual battle we currently face. Instead, our focus is to reach as many people as possible with the truth in a peaceful, effective, and law-abiding way.” Yet you use words and phrases like, “battle”, “power of his might”, “whole armour of God”, “breastplate of righteousness”.
I was raised in a christian zionist household. In my early 20s I sat down with the bible and started reading on page one. Half way through the book Joshua I could read no more. The violence and the killing of so many innocent people, including women and children and the rape of young girls was not something I wanted to be a party to. My faith died that day never to be resurrected.
That’s a real shame, Tony. The violence in the Bible always has a point and a deeper meaning, and without that understanding, it can turn people off. King David engaged in all kinds of sinful behavior, but the point is that he repented of it. God can forgive and redeem even the most egregious sinners if they are truly repentant, and if that message makes you “lose faith,” then you need to reexamine your heart.
Christ pointed out that it was the unrighteous who needed Him, not the people who were already righteous. Without that perspective, yes, violence can seem pointless.
Well said Paul.
And there is something to be said about the zionist box you were raised in to ‘infect’ your heart and mind, Tony. That is the leaven of the pharisees and saducees mentioned by Christ numerous times. ‘Anti-semitism’ is indeed a virus – a disease – and you get it from jews…an inherent, natural response to their ‘leaven’…
Yep, the ol Synagogue of Satan.
what if the “anti-semitic” goyim actually have some legitimate grievances against jews?
asking for a friend
Therein lies the heart of the jewish hypocrisy – they sincerely believe there is NEVER a legitimate excuse. That’s what this jewish author is trying to say without saying it.
Nothing irrational about hatred of jews atall. In fact, only the inverse is true.
Western countries must rid the yid. They are the evil behind everything. Once and for all
Welcome to Brown and Black Life. At least the Jews have voices and Politicians to quickly keep the masses at bay. The Black and Brown have no such help. Matter of Fact, Everyone including the Politicians, Media and Entertainment cease on it keep the fire of racism going. So, spare me your whining.
I’m sorry…what’s your point?
Full citizenship, billions in free money, food, and housing, undeserved affirmative action preferences, overrepresentation politically, score fixing scholastically, and the growing “my skin is my coupon” phenomena are just a few refutations to your baloney…yeah, browns and blacks are never satisfied either.
GO Ottify GO! You hit the nail on the head! Another thing the blax are noted for is using (so-called) “white racism” as an excuse justify their criminal behavior!
And their continuous failures, whether it’s poor school or job performance.
Duke Ellington, the famous Black jazz musician, once pointed out about his own people, “The problem in America isn’t between the haves and the have-nots. It’s between the haves and the want-to-haves.”
No one is talking about Epstein’s close connection with Ghislaine Maxwell, child of publisher Robert Maxwell, who was an Israeli spy.
Not true. Titus Frost is.
Rick Wiles at TruNews is talking about the Epstein operation being a Mossad honeypot blackmail and extortion racket to eliminate any opposition to Jewry and its Zionist agenda. Mossad agent, Robert Maxwell controlled Conde Naste publishing, which owns Vanity Fair, which is the magazine that originally censored Vicky Ward’s expose of Epstein’s pedophilia in 2002.

I didn’t catch that one. I had seen some videos on TruNews and they do some good stuff but there. But I prefer a catholic stance on things. I get uncomfortable when he talks about how God tali’s to him directly and then asks for his listeners to sell their assets and give him money
TrueNews does some good stuff but I prefer a catholic viewpoint. I get uncomfortable when he says God talks to him and tells him to do stuff.
Don’t throw that baby out with the bathwater.
The jews LIE – about everything. They always have, and they always will, to the last breath of the last jew.
In raping girls and underage women, Epstein was merely following the talmud, which encourages such (mis)behaviour. His only “crime” according to jew logic was in getting caught. Up to that point he was considered a “good jew”.
We should never forget that the jews LIE about their origins too, pretending to be descended from the Biblical Israelites, when the truth is that their ancestors came from Khazaria.
Here’s a link to something that should really make the devil’s gargoyles cringe.
https://www.veteranstoday.com/2015/03/08/the-hidden-history-of-the-incredibly-evil-khazarian-mafia/
My understanding is that the Khazar Jews were of Mongol-Turkic racial stock, but, I believe, the original, earlier people who settled Khazaria were probably White. Genetic and blood profiles of Ashkenazis reveal that they most likely are a hodge podge of White, Arab, Asian, and Black ancestry, which includes Edomite, Canaanite, and Hitite bloodlines.
Since the original Judahite “Jews” were forbidden to race mix, it’s absolutely absurd for these modern day so-called Jews to make any claims to that history, that faith, that bloodline, or that land.
Jews aren’t a racial group. Jewish identity is theological. It’s their rebellion against Christ that makes them Jews. Jews think they have special DNA but they are not related to Moses or the ancient Hebrews. Ashkanazi are Turkish people. They’re not even Semitic people so the term antisemitism is a farce. Have you checked out E Michael Jones’s work? He’s got some good videos on Jewtube. At least they haven’t taken them down yet
The “Jews” were “Jews” a thousand years before Christ showed up, and had quite a strong identity. Think King David and King Solomon. And beginning with Solomon at the end of his life, the “Jews” began to rebel against God to the point where God was so sick of their rebellious sinning that he took the crown of away from Zedekiah.
E. Michael Jones is very good with the history of the jewish subversion, but he doesn’t know ancient history very well, nor the Bible. Jones also believes in Replacement Theology like all Catholics and Protestants, and thus makes God a liar and a failure. He’s Catholic first and a Christian second.
Jones needs to read Jeremiah 31:31, which states emphatically that God will not give the Covenant to any other people than the Israelites. But Jones claims God made a covenant with everyone else after the Jews rejected Christ. To use a favorite phrase of Jones, “That’s preposterous.””
It is very important to recognize that the modern ‘jew’ is indeed a racial stock and bloodline…albeit a bastardized one. They trace their lineage maternally so it never matters what race the father is. Most jews have more white admixture than any other race, which is part of what makes them so dangerous. It also validates the understanding of the Biblical parable of the wheat and the tares (and many others, for that matter). The bastardized jewish bloodline starts with the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil – a family tree. Cain was the first ‘jew’, and his bloodline can be followed down through Esau to a people known as Edomites/Idumeans, whom the modern jew recognizes as their ancestors. These Edomites were the ‘jews opposed to Christ’ and in control of the government and the ‘religion’ it was founded upon. True ‘jews’ were only, and could only, be Israelites, as it was a nickname for one of the tribe of Judah, or that of a citizen of Judaea – who could only have been an Israelite, initially (just like the qualification of being a ‘free white man’ as a citizen at the founding of the uSA).
Oh, and at least half of the jews who identify as being jewish don’t practice judaism or even believe in God…so where does their identity come from, if not from some familial connection?
You-tube is removing E. Michael Jones videos as we speak. Over a dozen already.
I’m surprised it’s taken YouTube this long to censor E. Michael Jones. He’s become very popular among young people, and he’s among the best at exposing jewish subversion and hypocrisy. I guess he’ll move over to Bitchute with the rest of the “antisemites”.
You will also notice that when jews address their ‘jewishness’ in instances like this, they keep the race/religion line completely obscured to the average goy. But such language should even cause the most comatose of sheeple to wake up and say, “Wait a minute! Something just doesn’t add up here.”
Since jewishness is not specifically addressed from the racial perspective by the author, then it must be getting identified by the religious aspect, as that is how they taught the goyim to identify them…so then why is there no reference to God and his laws? Why is it being professed by a supposed religious jew that it doesn’t matter how a jew behaves, and that the ‘goodness’ of a jew is based on worldly, materialistic success? And to top it all of, this whiner of an author is acting in complete contradiction to the laws if the Old Testament for not taking responsibility for one of his own, essentially ‘passing the buck’ and throwing a fellow religious brother to the wolves. Everything that came out of the author’s brain is utter hypocrisy.
Wake up, sleeping goyim!
They do this with Barbara Lerner Spectre when it suits them.
The “Jew” is the classic example of Spiritual Deception. Their Perfidy is so bloody obvious; the fact that the whole world is deceived is PROOF that the Scriptures are alive and true. Revelation 12:9
And what’s amazing about their deception is how transparent and obvious it is once you understand even a modicum of the Bible and real history. Their con game is a flimsy house of cards that will collapse under even the slightest breeze.
Oliver wrote — “…..Their con game is a flimsy house of cards that will collapse under even the slightest breeze…….”
“will collapse under even the slightest breeze….” — in Theory, yes.
In Reality — No. To you and me, yes. Because our eyes have been opened.
Why you and I? Not sure. But I do know that all the years I sat in a brick and mortar c.hristian church, I never felt comfortable. It always felt “fake” to me. I always believed these men who tried to teach me; and the people who lap it up without question — were hypocrites.
Maybe this is why the Lord allowed me to see His Truths.
Not sure your story; but I’m thankful you have been blessed too.
Cheers.
John 10:25-27 “Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me.
But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.”
Yep, Christ said it Himself. They haven’t heard His voice and never will because they are not His sheep.
Yes, and John 8:39 confirms that the Jews are NOT the true, unmixed seed of Abraham:
“[The Jews] answered and said unto him, ‘Abraham is our father.’ Jesus saith unto them, ‘If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham.’
