Palestinian Arab "Replacement Theory" just like that of far-Right antisemites today

Israel haters, as always, are trying to hijack every news story to make it about Jewish evil.

Even though the far-Right murderer of 10 people in Buffalo was an antisemite as well as a racist, Israel-haters want to create an analogy between his beliefs and Israel:

Because every news story is ultimately about Jewish oppression of Palestinians, and every evil force in the world is comparable to Jews in Israel. Nothing antisemitic about that!

Cohen's and IfNotNow's analogy falls apart, as always, with two seconds of thought. The US doesn't define itself as a "white nation." Israel's entire reason for existence is to provide a secure place for the Jewish people to live without fear of being pawns at the whims of the leaders of the countries they reside in, as they have been so many times throughout history, including today.

Opposing that desire Jewish self determination is opposing the Jewish right to live as truly free people.

Beyond that, as is usually the case, is that Palestinian Arabs and allies have always acted towards Jews exactly like Buffalo murderer Payton S. Gendron acted towards Black people - with the exact same philosophy.

White supremacists espouse the "14 word" slogan, written David Lane who murdered Jewish radio host Alan Berg in 1984, that "we must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children." But he also pithily described the worldview behind it: "The Western nations were ruled by a Zionist conspiracy … [that] above all things wants to exterminate the White Aryan race."

Somehow, the white supremacists ascribe to Zionism the exact same foundational evil as their far Left  opponents. And their use of the word "Zionist" as an innuendo for "Jew" is just as transparent.

If Em Cohen and IfNotNow were looking for an analogy for a movement that thinks that immigration of "the other" is the ultimate evil that must be opposed by any means, the best analogy would not be to Jews, but to the antisemitic Arabs who opposed Jewish immigration - and wanted to doom Jews to denocide in Europe.

After all, opposition to Jewish immigration was the single most important platform for all Arabs in Palestine in their anti-Jewish claims starting in the 1920s. 

Arabs, as with today's antisemites, hid their hate of Jews behind a pretense of fear that immigration would limit their own economic opportunity - the exact opposite of the truth. Yet that was the main point hammered by the Arab side at the Shaw Commission, blaming Arab pogroms on fears of Jewish immigration (which "arouse among the Arabs the apprehensions that they will in time be deprived of their livelihood.") The murderous "Arab revolt" of 1936-1939 similarly blamed massacres of Jews on "fears of Jewish immigration."

They murdered Jews in the name of, essentially, the identical slogan of "Jews will not replace us" that the white supremacists of Charlottesville chanted in 2017.

The people who claim to be so much against antisemitism and right-wing bigotry happily embrace the worldview of the people whose philosophy towards Jews is exactly the same as the white supremacists. 

No doubt, the modern antisemites would argue that they are only interested in peace for all. But that is what Jordan's King Abdullah claimed - when he pledged to stop, by force, all Jewish immigration to Palestine after Israel was declared. 

He would have claimed that he was not antisemitic at all when he said that the only threat to peace in the Holy Land was...Jews.  His desire to ethnically cleanse Jews from Israel was only to ensure peace - for the remaining non-Jews.

Sound familiar?

Every Nefesh B'nefesh flight into Israel showing hundreds of happy Jewish immigrants is covered by Arab media, today. Every news story about potential aliyah from South America or Ukraine or France is covered in detail by Arab media. 

Their opposition to Jewish immigration has not lessened over the years. And their major Western allies never say a word against the identical, implacable opposition to immigration that white supremacists have.
