December 2014 Channel 4 .....The situation comedy, named Hungry, was announced by writer Hugh Travers, who said “we’re kind of thinking of it as Shameless in famine Ireland.” The response in Ireland was quick and negative: “Jewish people would never endorse making a comedy of the mass extermination of their ancestors at the hands of the Nazis

Ken O Keefe talked about "fucking Jews," and that there must be some truth to it to a bunch of neo-Nazis and Holocaust deniers at the Iona London Forum. Talk about knowing your antisemitic Jew hating audience. Christ, and look at the reception he is getting here on a (cough cough) antifascist board. What a fucking joke. What a fucking sick joke.

There's no nuance with you, is there?

It's not possible for authentic anti-semitism to exist alongside legitimate criticism of Israeli domestic and foreign policy? To allow for the possibility that some (maybe even most) critics of Israel may be fine with individual Jews, they just have a problem with oppressive regimes and genocide? I'm not talking about O'Keefe, he may really have an ugly agenda underneath all of his straight talk about the middle east, I'm talking about the one note you keep playing on this board, and the insinuation that all of us at RI are anti-semites of the most atavistic variety.

Thanks Alice, perfectly put as usual. That's the same stuff that was churning around in my head but I had al pay no way to express it.

Here's the rub: the Voltaire quote about who you are not allowed to criticize.

Here's the stupidity: Saying I'm antisemetic because I criticize Israel is exactly like saying I'm racist against white American men because I despised everyone in the Bush administration.

Or saying that I'm racist for criticizing Obama.

It simply is not logical.

Solace doesn't give a shit. He's simply a hysteric. He's literally the squeaky board in the floor. As predictable and monotonous as a dog's squealing chew-toy.

If I didn't preemptively call him out on this he would respond to Aluce by calling her antisemetic for what she wrote.

A friend of mine just discovered O'Keefe so I was looking for videos I'd seen before, the one describing his experience of being on that relief ship that was going to Gaza that the Israelis terrorized and on which they murdered people.


Hi, Solace. How's life under the bridge?
