The meaning of the term “antisemite” has significantly changed in recent years. There was a time when this term referred to those who despised Jews. Later, the term referred to those who promoted myths about a global Jewish conspiracy to rule the world. Today the term “antisemite” is used by the ruling elite to lambast human rights activists who advocate equal rights between Jews, Christians and Muslims, the right of return of Palestinian refugees to their homeland and the vision of a common, democratic state for both Palestinians and Israelis. The word “anti-Semite”, which initially conveyed a negative and even sinister meaning, refers now to positive and highly commendable attitudes that can be carried with honour. One may lament this change of meaning, but one should remember that a word does not carry any particular meaning. It is merely a conventional symbol that refers to external contents. By convention, society could agree to name animosity towards Jews “xakaculca”, democracy “zbzb” and elefants “democracy”.
Advocacy for a just and democratic solution to the conflict in Israel/Palestine is grounded on international human rights norms, including the right to equality and the right of everyone to return to her country. These norms are enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (articles 1, 2, 7, 13(2)) and the Preamble of the U.N. Charter. This advocacy also seeks its legitimacy from the constitutional principles that underpin the Western democratic order. According to current terminology, as imposed by those who mould public opinion, the word “antisemitism” now refers to human rights advocacy and to the struggle for democracy. There is no need to combat the new convention. One merely has to adjust to it.
Inasmuch as the term “antisemite” now refers to human rights advocates and radical democrats, I declare myself a radical antisemite.

Antisemite = AntiJew
You can change the word if makes it easy on your disturbed soul.
So how will you change the word AntiJew.
Tha’ts what you are and you cannot change it.
There is a difference between a political and economic agenda and a race. The Jewish political movement called Zionism is evil, racist and violates just about every War Crimes law ever written. Not all Jews are Zionists. Just as not all Germans are Nazis. Nor are all Americans Democrats or Republicans.
The Rothschilds owned the Bank of England from 1815 to 1946. They financed Hitler’s army with a 359 pound loan in 1935 which at that time was equal to 35 million ounces of gold. Hitler could not have started WW II without those guns from England which is why the Rothschilds loaned him the money. Am I anti-Jew for denouncing the men who financed Hitler and was responsible for killing 58 million people? The source for the above is Howard Katz’s The Warmongers. Katz is Jewish as is Davidsson.
The fact that Howard Katz is Jewish doesn’t mean he is right.
The argument that Rothschild financed Hitler is an absurd piece of nonsense. If you had said IBM and George Bush’s grandfather Prescott Bush did you might be a tad nearer the mark. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2004/sep/25/usa.secondworldwar
Katz said that there was a 350 million pound loan from the Rothschild owned Bank of England to Hitler in 1935 which was used to buy weapons from Vickers and to finance the reorganization of IG Farben.
Do you dispute these facts?
Hitler didn’t start WWII, JEWS DID, and secondly Jews were proven to be a menace to humanity long before Zionism was invented.
Hitler was told by the English Foreign Secretary Lord Halifax to invade those countries and gather the Germans into one nation that would defend us from the Communists. He was loaned money by the Bank if England to buy weapons for that army.

My thoughts on anti semitism
I wrote this almost 3 years ago. I think it needs updating LOL. Also on first page of my blog far down on the page is a short film on anti semitism with an ex member of Knesset. Worth taking a listen to… I am sure Foxman defecated when he heard this “self hating Jewess” say these things.
Hey horse237,..Nice Post, that guys seem to be on the right track; as for lkjhg@gmail.com “disturbed soul”? How can someone be anti jew? To begin with it is a misnomer and a very recent one – the term is used as a reference to the tribe of Judah – Judahites – never ever have the yiddish khazars that pretend to be Judahites been indigenous to the area formerly known as Judah. The term semite is another corruption, in this case, of the tribal name Shem or Shemite, again the filthy yiddish khazars that currently occupy Palestine have no historical or cultural or spiritual connexion with that region. I support the true shemitic people of Palestine, The Palestinians, the blood descendants of yeshua, who was not a “jew” either, he was a Nazarene: so STFU fool!
I understand where you are coming from Elias, but I disagree. Anti-Semitism has a very specific meaning, and is understood as such by the vast majority of people. Hence the Zionists adoption of the term ‘new anti-Semitism’ to distinguish it from the old Jew-hating. We should not allow them to appropriate the language.
I wrote 25 years ago in Return Magazine that ‘anti-Semitism’ was becoming the false anti-racism of the right and I was proved correct. But at heart these new ‘opponents’ of anti-Semitism are usually the most racist and anti-Semitic themselves.
I have currently been posting chapter excerpts from Israel Shahak’s Jewish History, Jewish Religion: The Weight of Three Thousand Years soon.
Please take a look at my main web page if you have not read him. He reveals a lot of Jewish history that most Jews do not know. The rabbis lie a lot about Jewish history.
I have compiled a number of articles on my website, including those on the history of the Jewish “State”. http://johnmccarthy90066.tripod.com/index.html Opinions welcome. vpocvs@gmail.com
