The odious ‘Israel first’ libel Attacks against AIPAC are a disgrace
NY Daily News ^ | 2/27/12 | lan Dershowitz / NEW YORK DAILY NEWS

It’s the kind of virulent hate speech you’d expect to find on a neo-Nazi website or in a Patrick Buchanan column: American Jews who support current Israeli policies are accused of dual loyalty and called “Israel firsters.”

AIPAC (the American Israel Public Affairs Committee) fares even worse: “Saying AIPAC is guilty of dual loyalty is giving it credit for one more loyalty than it holds.”

In other words, this widely respected American organization, and the hundreds of thousands of Jews (and Christians) who support it, have absolutely no loyalty to our nation; their sole loyalty is to the foreign nation of Israel.

This false accusation of disloyalty to country was a central tenet of Nazism, Stalinism and other anti-Semitic regimes. Today, it is the mantra of Jew haters and neo-Nazis.

So who is spouting this hateful rhetoric today?

I first came across some of these vile quotes about “Israel firsters” and “dual loyalty” on an actual neo-Nazi website. Surprisingly, however, they were attributed not to the usual suspects, but to a spokesman for Media Matters, a hard left Democratic media attack and watchdog group that started out as an antidote to Fox News, and that still has close connections to the Obama White House.

The author of these hateful quotes is MJ Rosenberg, who is the senior foreign policy fellow of Media Matters. Speaking at a symposium, Rosenberg explained why Media Matters hired him:

“Until I got there [Media Matters\] had nothing on foreign policy. They hired me specifically to be involved with this issue, with the Palestinian issue, with [the issue of\] stopping the war with Iran.”

And Rosenberg has become involved with a vengeance, using as his primary weapon the poisonous charge of “Israel firsters” and dual loyalty.

Very sad situation. Media Matters is the Soro’s Crowd / J-Street anti Israel group. Pay attention next week when AIPAC has their Policy Conference in Washington, DC. There are going to be a who’s who of attendees. World Leaders Congresssman, Congresswomen / Senators. All who support Israel and the relationship that American Christians & Jews have toward Israel. Israel is the one reliable friend the USA has in the Middle East. I wish that my American Jewish friends would wake up and see for themselves that this Administration is not too friendly to our best Friend in the Middle East.
