LOL, Douglas Macgregor the anti-Semite? Who will you reference next? Scott Ritter the pedophile or Armstrong the convicted swindler.

The Anti-Semite on Your TV

Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s favorite foreign policy expert has a history of echoing anti-Jewish ideas.

. What they may not know is that he’s also a longtime purveyor of anti-Semitic ideas.

“We have a huge problem with a class of so-called elites, the people who are wealthy, very wealthy in many cases and they are, as the Russians used to call certain individuals many, many years ago, rootless cosmopolitans,” he told the Serbian American Voters Alliance in an October 2021 speech uncovered by Matt Gertz at MediaMatters.

For those understandably unfamiliar with this terminology, “rootless cosmopolitans” is an anti-Semitic euphemism for Jews that was popularized under Stalin in the Soviet Union. Adolf Hitler also repeatedly referred to Jews as disloyal cosmopolitans, lamenting in his manifesto Mein Kampf that “it is no longer princes or their courtesans who contend and bargain about state frontiers, but the inexorable cosmopolitan Jew who is fighting for his own dominion over the nations.” In other words, there is exactly one type of person who uses this sort of language in everyday conversation.

In case his audience missed the point, though, Macgregor added: “They live above all of this, they have no connection to the country. There is nothing there that holds them in place, and they are largely responsible, in my judgment, for the condition that we are in today.”

Has McGregor been right about anything he’s predicted so far in regards to Ukraine?

Do better, propaganda peddler.

The man has more credentials, military experience, etc., etc., than you, your mother, father, and the last 3 generations of your family blood have.

Go figure huh?

Like many antisemites, he makes the mistake of calling them “rootless” cosmopolitans. This is a very outdated European concept.

Jews are no longer rootless at all, after WW2.

The vast majority of all Jews exist in only two places now, the US and Israel. Israeli Jews are rather the “working class” of Jews, and though rather prosperous, are not the masters of the Universe of antisemitic fable. They are the Hobbits of their own Shire, like any small nation-state.

Jews as a class of persons with international significance are now almost exclusively American, extremely “rooted” in the New York-California milieu. Some are “rooted” in London, but much less so. They aren’t really cosmopolitan at all either, but quite parochial.

MacGregor expresses disgust that Zelensky's military has a Nazi core, that the US is propping up Zelensky's Nazi military. If MacGregor had been what you said, he would have been rooting for the Neo Nazis at the heart of the leadership of the Ukrainian military, just like you do.

This is a proxy war and 85% of the Ukrainians officials are foreigners - they don't care what happens to the citizens.

Yes, I know Zelensky is Jewish, and I recall reading a rabbi's comment that Z had betrayed his people. There were traitors to the people in the concentration camps in WWII, also, selling out their Jewish peers in exchange for special treatment. Porn stars like Zelensky have no loyalty; they sell themselves along with everyone else.
