Rabbi Avi Shafran: When Ilhan Omar attacks Jews, don’t bash non-Jews for defending us
Fox News ^ | 5-27-19 | Rabbi Avi Shafran

Heavy security surrounded Montreal’s Jewish Public Library recently, for an address by Ayaan Hirsi Ali. The former Muslim Brotherhood member, who abandoned her youthful embrace of militant Islamism and became an advocate for Muslim women’s rights, told those gathered something they didn’t particularly want to hear but that hardly surprised them.

While acknowledging the threat to Jews posed by the white supremacy movement, she insisted that “Islamist-driven anti-Semitism [is] the reigning anti-Semitism of the day.”

It is, she said, “the most zealous, most potent Jew hatred” in the world today.

Having grown up being told that Jews were evil subhuman enemies of all that is good, and having reflexively hated Jews despite never having met one, the Somali-born Ali, 49, has the credentials to know of what she speaks.

And she went on to criticize the tepid Congressional response to Representative Ilhan Omar’s infamous slurs of American Jews. What was originally conceived as a clear resolution focused on anti-Jewish tropes turned into an anodyne rejection of a laundry list of hatreds, including “Islamophobia,” signaling, Ms. Ali contended, that “there’s nothing exceptional about anti-Semitism.”

Ayaan Hirsi Ali needs to get out of islam. What kind of person could find such filth in a religion and stay with it?

Islam, like Nazism, needs to be eradicated.

When “we” do defend Jews, or blacks, or any minority we are accused of being condescending.

Muslims’ hatred for Jews is because of the 10 Commandments. The Jews gave the 10 Commandments to humanity. Muslims hate the 10 Commandments.

Christians honor the 10 Commandments. This is why Christians are presently under political and physical world-wide attack.

OK. You talked me out of it. I will not attack gentiles who defend Jews from Ilhan Omar and other anti-Semites. I will also take a dump sitting down, brush my teeth before going to bed, and put my pants on my legs instead of sticking my arms in them.
