Get Away from Auschwitz, You Clown

 

Dear Foreign Minister Çavuşoğlu,

Thank you for your donation to the maintenance of my great-grandfather’s cemetery, and for making sure the Western media knew about it in English. I was very touched until I remembered the sideline your government-aligned media does in insane anti-Semitic conspiracy theories in Turkish.

I think perhaps a better use of that money might be studying this phenomenon. But of course, your press is free to do what it likes, and I appreciate this gesture. Although I do rather wonder where you got that money.

Yours sincerely,

Someone who has wandered through many of your ancestors’ cemeteries without once spitting on their graves.

    I noticed the “Zionist media in action”, but what is the gist of that video?

    Did your great-grandpa die at Auschwitz?

    Yes, and I don’t think the rest warrants translation.

    It seems many these days want credit for favoring free speech…Except, you know, offensive speech. And for being tolerant…Except toward intolerant people who disagree with me. And for being against antisemitism, though you can certainly understand those who hate Israel, and, well, um, Jews.

    Ms. Burlinski, in your profession, do you see this as a pattern in the Muslim World/Muslim Media: mouthing the right platitudes to the West in English while feeding the jihadi cancer in Arabic (or Farsi)? It’s pretty safe to condemn the Holocaust. But to take the lessons learned from the Holocaust and support Israel’s right to exist? I’m assuming that’s a bridge too far for many in the Mid-East.

    Well said, Claire… well said.  Dr. Krauthammer pointed this out last night… I hope he is wrong.

    Seems like time is curved on we’re almost back to the time-location formerly known as the 1930’s ;-(
