Another Democrat Trashes Elie Wiesel: ‘Holocaust Whore’
Breitbart ^ | 7/8/16 | Joel B. Pollak

Posted on 07/09/2016 10:10:24 PM PDT by Impala64ssa

Another prominent Democrat has trashed Elie Wiesel — the Holocaust survivor, author, and Nobel Peace laureate who died on Saturday. Dorothy Reik, president of the Progressive Democrats of the Santa Monica Mountains and a member of the Los Angeles County Democratic Central Committee, wrote an email quoting a reference to Wiesel as a “Holocaust whore” and adding: “I had met people who made their livings from the holocaust [sic] but never to the extent that Wiesel did.”

Reik had been defending Max Blumenthal, the virulently anti-Israel writer and son of Hillary Clinton adviser Sid Blumenthal, who had tweeted: “Elie Wiesel is dead. He spent his last years inciting hatred, defending apartheid & palling around with fascists.” Earlier this week, Hillary Clinton’s campaign distanced itself from Blumenthal’s statements.

In her email, Reik also wrote:

Sadly I have to agree with Max Blumenthal. I hope that people on this list do not use this as an excuse to attack my friends and associates, most of whom probably do not agree with me. Why do I post this at all? Because I think it is the truth and so I am compelled to speak out so that we are wary of others who are honored as peacemakers but are not.

There was a time when voting D was not anti- American, anti- Christian, anti- Liberty, or anti- Jewish. Believe it or not. You can look it up in a history book

Smell Dorothy Reek.

What an evil woman. Marxist progressives reek wherever one finds them, as if they were spawned by a dank, foul wind. The Holocaust makes them uncomfortable, so they shoot the messenger. Liberalism is indeed a mental disorder, just as Michael Savage says.

“Night” is part of the curriculum of a lot of college courses, very powerful,

Simply written, haunting and effective.

The only two public figures I've seen trash Wiesel have been Jews (Blumenthal and Riek). Their main beef, it appears, is with Wiesel's support for Israel's right to self defense, and with Bibi's hard-line stance on that matter in particular.

Progressives' hatred of Israel is quite intense, and Jewish progs seem less reticent than most about expressing it. The fact that most Christians support Israel just makes the loony left hate the Jewish state even more.

As far as why so many Jews vote Democrat....well....they agree with most of the Rat platform, it's as simple as that. Abortion-on-demand, global warming, the LGBTQ agenda, gun-banning, open borders, and so-called "social justice" for the "victims of white racist imperialists" are their main concerns. The anti-Semitism of a large chunk of the Dem party is ignored.

She’s Jewish... A self hating Jew.

The same phenomenon is now occurring with whites, with the rise of rabid self hating whites.

This I believe is the result of people unable to deal with the irrational and inappropriate guilt that they feel because the group they belong to is more successful than other groups. This offends their delusional sense of “fairness” that stems from the fantasy that all “races” should be the same.

Would this be akin to some African-Americans being “slavery whores”?

Apparently there is some controversy about Night because Wiesel's description of Auschwitz does not match the reality in certain respects. And Wiesel admitted that his writing had fictional aspects. This does not mean that he did not experience most of the things he writes about.

I have read a great deal about the Holocaust and listened to the testimonies of lots of survivors, but for some reason with Wiesel I often got the impression that to some extent he was putting on an act.

People have an inner radar to detect insincerity and I got this feeling sometimes when listening to Wiesel's public comments. I wouldn't go so far as Ms. Reik; I don't know enough to say that. I'm just talking about the way the guy came across.

I the end, many Jews cling to their culture and religion. To a communist this is unforgivable because they need to contol your mind and your heart.

Jews voting dem really isn’t orders of magnitude more than catholics voting democrat. And among Americans living in Israel, it’s high 80s and low 90s GOP.

A field Marshal explaining how godless Jews worship socialism.... why does that sound familiar? Maybe if we had some living space....or something.

And it’s like the worst of the Luther philosophy just stuck to him like glue... this has to have had some help from hell. Even conservative Lutherans today don’t regard that stuff as authoritative.

Put up any thread about Jews. Scroll through the peanut gallery of the same ignorant comments that always show up.
Now imagine yourself a jew. Would you have much desire to join up with that crowd?

A lot of idiots need to lose their traditional pogrom mentality before we attract a majority of them to our cause.

There is a desperate need for a full-scale national security and RICO investigation of the D party bosses and their enemy/ foreign Islamonazi funding sources or puppet-masters

That was also true for many Jews in Poland.

She’s a “Bundist” Jew. Bundists hate Israel, because their goal was world socialism, confining all the Jews to one country, went against their plans to spread Communism around the globe, hence the resentment for the State of Israel.

No, the Nazis were not right. Jewish affinity for Socialism is not anything new or particularly American.
