Antisemitism as defined by the US State Dept
On Oct. 6, 2004 AD, Bush The Simple signed into law the global anti-Semitism review act, which is quite interesting. The United States state Department lists the following set of beliefs as being anti-Semitic:
1. Any assertion that the Jewish community controls government, the media, international business and the financial world is anti-Semitic.
2. Any strong anti-Israel sentiment is anti-Semitic.
3. Virulent criticism of Israel's leaders, past or present, is anti-Semitic.
4. Criticism of the Jewish religion or its religious leaders or literatire, especially the Talmud and the Kabala is anti-Semitic. I wonder if that includes the traditions of the elders that Jesus criticized. "And woe unto the Pharisees" )
5. Criticism of the US government and congress for being under influences of the Jewish/Zionist community, including AIPEC, is anti-Semitic.
6. Criticism of the Jewish/Zionist community for promoting Globalism (the New World Order) is anti-Semitic.
7. Blaming Jewish leaders and their followers for inciting the Roman crucifixion of Jesus is anti-Semitic.
8. Diminishing the 6 million figure of the holocaust victims is anti-Semitic.
9. Calling Israel a racist state is anti-Semitic.
10. Asserting that there exists a Zionist conspiracy is anti-Semitic.
11. Claiming the Jews and their leaders created the Bolshevik revolution in Russia is anti-Semitic.
12. Making derogatory statements about Jewish persons is anti-Semitic.
Now isn't this interesting and all-inclusive?
