Rabbis protest Fox host's use of Holocaust imagery (Mega Barf!)
Yahoo! News ^ | January 26, 2011 | Reuters

Posted on 01/26/2011 7:38:29 PM PST by DBeers

CHICAGO (Reuters) – Four hundred rabbis will publish a letter on Thursday calling on Fox News to sanction host Glenn Beck for repeated use of Nazi and Holocaust imagery and for airing attacks on World War Two survivor George Soros.

In an open letter to Rupert Murdoch, the chairman of News Corp, which owns Fox, the rabbis also demand an apology from Fox News chief Roger Ailes for characterizing Beck's Jewish critics as nothing more than "left-wing rabbis."

The letter will appear as an advertisement in the News Corp-owned Wall Street Journal on Thursday for which the rabbis spent more than $100,000, a spokesman said.

"We haven't seen the ad," said Joel Cheatwood, Fox News senior vice president of development, "but this group is a George Soros backed left-wing political organization that has been trying to engage Glenn Beck primarily for publicity purposes."

Message brought to you by: Jewish Funds for Justice | JFSJ

Is this the "Jewish" ACORN?

-what they say they are doing:

Creating a Just, Fair, and Compassionate America

-what they are REALLY doing:

DiscoverTheNetworks.org: Jewish Funds for Justice | JFSJ

Jewish Funds for Justice (JFSJ) was established in 2006, when its legacy organizations -- the Shefa Fund, the Jewish Fund for Justice, and Spark: Partnership for Service -- merged to form JFSJ. With offices in New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Los Angeles, JFSJ's mission is to “mobilize the resources of American Jewry to combat the root causes of domestic economic and social injustice.” By JFSJ's reckoning, chief among those root causes are the inherently negative by-products of capitalism – most notably racism and “gross economic inequality.” Rabbi Mordechai Liebling, JFSJ's Vice President of Programs, contends that “the concentration of wealth harms a society” and must be counter-balanced by “mechanisms for wealth redistribution.” Toward that end, JFSJ seeks to “bring about social change” by making grants to grassroots organizations – Jewish and non-Jewish alike – that “support economic development in marginalized neighborhoods.”

I understand the hurt of Jews but to take the Holocaust in its entirety unto themselves is to deny the tragedy of the Jehovah Witnesses, the gypsies, the homosexuals, the infirm and God knows what other ethnic peoples that were murdered during that time.

Looks like they are available for hire for the right price.

Wonder how much George Soros had to pay for their services?

How many hear know THIS about Soros: http://thehive.modbee.com/node/15129

KROFT: My understanding is that you went out with this protector of yours who swore that you were his adopted godson.

Mr. SOROS: Yes. Yes.

KROFT: Went out, in fact, and helped in the confiscation of property from the Jews.

Mr. SOROS: Yes. That's right. Yes.

KROFT: I mean, that's–that sounds like an experience that would send lots of people to the psychiatric couch for many, many years. Was it difficult?

Mr. SOROS: Not–not at all. Not at all. Maybe as a child you don't–you don't see the connection. But it was–it created no–no problem at all.

KROFT: No feeling of guilt?

Mr. SOROS: No.

KROFT: For example that, 'I'm Jewish and here I am, watching these people go. I could just as easily be there. I should be there.' None of that?
Mr. SOROS: Well, of course I c–I could be on the other side or I could be the one from whom the thing is being taken away. But there was no sense that I shouldn't be there, because that was–well, actually, in a funny way, it's just like in markets–that if I weren't there–of course, I wasn't doing it, but somebody else would–would–would be taking it away anyhow. And it was the–whether I was there or not, I was only a spectator, the property was being taken away. So the–I had no role in taking away that property. So I had no sense of guilt.

repeated use of Nazi and Holocaust imagery

Surely they must have some video that they can point to as an example. [/sarc]

Glenn has gone out of his way to say that he can forgive George Soros the child but can’t forgive the 80 year old man who feels no remorse for it.

This is appalling: left wing Rabbis defending a self-confessed Nazi collaborator. Are they saying Soros is above criticism? Or are they claiming that left wing Jews—or Jews bought by Soros—”own” the WW2 narrative? What nerve these people have!

They want to make this about Jews as a means of distracting from what Beck is saying. After all he says the same of Van Jones, Obama, Arne Duncan, William Ayers, Bernadine Dorhn, Geoffry Jones......

Perhaps these Rabbis should read up on Soros' life during the Holocaust.

I think these “Rabbis” expose more about themselves than they know and they may want to think about where this is going and what kind of world they want to live in.

I have never heard someone deny the tragedy of those groups. Do you have a source please?

That’s a good way to teach Murdoch a lesson, give him $100k.

Fair warning to the Rabbis, Glenn will be beating up on another innocent Jewish man on Friday. (Edward Bernays)

"Goebbels was using my book Crystallizing Public Opinion as a basis for his destructive campaign against the Jews of Germany. This shocked me."

-Edward Bernays, Biography of an Idea: Memoirs of Public Relations Counsel (1965)

For what its worth, Bernays never renounced his propaganda methods, he simply rebranded them.

hm... so, we are now to only talk about the Holocaust as it applies to Jews? Are we now not allowed to see or to discuss images or at all to refer to historical photographs that prove beyond a shadow of a doubt the atrocities man has visited on fellow man, Jewish or otherwise?

Jews weren’t the only ones annihilated in the Totenkopf-created Hells; perhaps the rabbis should remind themselves of the virtue of Humility.
