S.I. Rosenbaum, self-hating Jew

https://www.bostonglobe.com/ideas/2019/03/01/the-last-temptation-michael-cohen/1d1163vl6NuUpSndJ7wOpO/story.html

S.I. Rosenbaum has real chutzpah to accuse Trump supporters of being “willing collaborators in white supremacy.”

While it’s true that there are some anti-Semitic nutcases who support Trump, there are far more Jew haters in the Democratic Party, which is more and more becoming a willing collaborator in the future destruction of Israel by Palestinian mobs and hostile nation states like Iran.

No President has been a better friend to Israel than Trump. All previous presidents lacked the courage to move the U.S. embassy to Israel’s capital, Jerusalem. Trump did it.

Trump is also the first President of the United States to have a Jewish daughter and son-in-law and Jewish grandchildren.

A second holocaust by Iranian nuclear bombs is a much bigger threat to Jews than a few white Supremacist nutcases whom Trump doesn’t support.

Trump also has the courage to stand with Saudi Arabia, an ally against Iranian expansion and a country that has recently been much more supportive of Israel, even when everyone else is demanding that we punish them because of the unfortunate way that they offed one of their own citizens.

  1. ‘White Supremacy’ in its most common media/academic/dramatic usage means refusing to accept the authority of the sociological fallacy. It is part of Bolshevik religious vernacular just like racism. Use of the term as an accusation is a pretty good marker of mental instability.

  2. Standing with Saudi Arabia is an absurd mistake. No other country is as great a threat to the entire world.

  3. I had a nightmare where Ilhan Omar became president and started a war against Israel to end it’s Zionist apartheid. As some Jews were sending money to Israel, she used the 23andMe database to ban access to the financial system to those with more than 25% Jewish ancestry. Woke up in a cold sweat.

    • IlhanO, if your dream comes to pass, America will be dead to me. I will renounce my citizenship and go anywhere else, never to set foot on the tainted soil again.

    • The way Ilhan’s remarks have dominated the news cycle (remember she is just a freshman congresswoman with little influence), and the ridiculous amount of heat she has taken just for questioning US support for Israel, makes me pretty confident your nightmare will never come to pass. The US love for Zionism is so strong that only a Jewish President could ever get away with reducing support for Israel.

  4. In the full arc of history, it appears that Jews have done their flourishing in White countries.

    Maybe White nationalism is better for the Jews than Rosenbaum et al are willing to admit.

    It’s not like Arab nationalism; African nationalism; various sorts of Asian nationalism; etc; is any kind of panacea for the Jews.

    • Not exactly, Jews flourished everywhere in certain times, really depends on the friendliness of the government and the local population. In general white countries flourished more since the renaissance but that doesn’t mean that Jews in other countries didn’t flourish in relation to the common level of development of those countries

  7. A segment of the alt-right views Trump as its last leg of White Nationalism. Another segment embraces Trump, but has reservations of him, because of his Jewish-in-laws. The last segment do not like Trump at all, and it’s because of his Jewish-in-laws.

    I disagree, there are more Chucky Schumer haters from the right-o-sphere, than there are demobrats who wish him the worst of luck.

    Ok, what, who's this again?

      • Leftie SJW hate Israeli Jews because they (Israeli Jews) are whiter and more Western than the browner and less Western (and thus, more virtuous, according to SJW dogma) Palestinians.

      • Leftist Jews have been assimilated into the self-hating white club.
        I wonder if this will ever happen with Asians. I just can’t imagine that, somehow, maybe because there is such a huge number of Asians in the world compared to Jews.

        All other ethnicities besides white Jews and white gentiles seem to encourage the Jew and gentile self-hatred. Muslims especially encourage it. Muslims pretty much acquire Jew-hatred with their mother’s milk, and they have formed a strange alliance with leftists, and are teaching the leftists that Jews are evil. Just look at the Labour party in the UK. And every college campus everywhere in America and Canada.

        I used to belong to the United Church of Canada. I quit after they divested from Israel. Liberal protestant churches have drank the kool-aid. Their elderly membership is dying off and young people are not joining. The churches will probably get converted into mosques. And the leftist church leadership seem ok with this. They are not thinking it through. No more gay weddings! No more females preaching! The woman will have to come in a different door and sit behind the men.

      • Most Whites have a tiny Jew sitting inside. Like a tiny Native American sitting inside Elizabeth Warren.

        My 2¢

        March 4, 2019 at 5:27 PM

      • Sometimes I think it is just a geographical area thing, most of the Jews live in the liberal coasts and they are not different so much to the rest of the people there. But then I look at ashkenazi Jews in Israel and also there they are on the left side of politics and the vast majority of the extreme left. They really adopted all the liberal European dogmas and therefore they also think that the Palestinians are right, that Israel is horrible, feminism, socialism, the whole package of inter sectionalism. So in some way I think they do identify with “whites” in general and think they are part of some liberal “enlightenment”, even though the basically act against their own interests. For a while it worked for them in the nineties but the reality after the Oslo agreement and during the second intifada was so grim and bloody that people couldn’t keep this illusion and the left lost a lot of their power and never recovered since then. And yet, most of my Tel Avivian secular ashkenazi friends are far on the left exactly like the Jews in NY or LA.

      • “Leftist Jews have been assimilated into the self-hating white club”

        Some have, sure. But certainly not the author:

        “Cohen’s collaboration with a racist regime was simply a more extreme version of the same deal so many light-skinned Jews make with white supremacy.

        (…)

        Other minorities make this bargain too, sometimes — look at Ben Carson and Clarence Thomas — but Jews more easily succumb because so many of us easily pass as white.

        (…)

        At the heart of this moment is the question of how we survive as a minority population. As history curves in on itself, as fascism repeats itself, we have only one advantage: unlike other places where ethnonationalism has flourished, the US is fast approaching a plurality of minorities. Coalition is white supremacy’s worst nightmare — that’s why so many white supremacists are fighting so hard against it.

        (…)

        If Jews are going to survive the future, we will have to stand with people of color for our mutual benefit.”

        The mindset this reveals is clear, Jews are a minority who happen to have skin light enough to “pass” for white. Like other minorities, they do not sin when they peruse their own collective “benefit”(as white people do when they pursue their interests as whites), but rather they sin when they act like “uncle Tom” minorities (the reference to Carson and Thomas) who allegedly throw their group under the bus for their personal benefit.

      • To those who buy into SJWism, white is the most evil of all races, and it’s virtuous to be non-white, so it’s wishful thinking on her part that she’s not white.

  9. Who the fuck is S.I. Rosenbaum anyway? I hear about these Jews on the media and they are referred to as if they’ve done anything noteworthy. It’s like Barbara Spector. Never would have heard of her had I not read the name on alt-right sites.

    Dershowitz and Simon Schama are different; I’ve heard of them in other contexts.

  12. C’mon Lion, ever think that maybe just maybe guys like Rosenbaum who work for the elite media have better insight into what’s going on with Jewish shot-callers than you do? And that in turn, those Jewish shot-callers in the upper echelon of the power elite who financially underwrite the Left in general and the Democratic Party in particular have a pretty firm grasp on the reigns?

    Talk is cheap, just ask “Build the Wall” Trump supporters. I’ll start getting worried about Leftist anti-Semitism the second it transforms from a bunch street peasants impotently chest pounding into actual policies. I’m not holding my breath though.

      For starters, Rosenbaum is a woman.

      And no, I don’t think she has any insight into anything. She’s just parroting talking points from a leftist bubble.

  13. “Saudi Arabia, an ally against Iranian expansion and a country that has recently been much more supportive of Israel”

    This has everything to do with realpolitik and nothing to do with any affection for Israel itself, having said that I agree with the rest of your analysis. Following up on your point of leftist anti semitism have you seen what’s happening in Britain’s left wing Labour Party. Jewish politicians in the party, some of them quite high profile have very vocally spoken out about the depth and breadth of hostility to Jews within the party and at least one has resigned. Two simple reasons for this, the Labour Party prefers representing the interests of Muslims over the interests of Jews not surprising since Muslims represent way more votes, coupled with the dyed in the DNA leftism of British intellectuals for whom helping “oppressed” brown and black people is the greatest virtue there ever was. The Democratic Party is headed down the same road but when will most Jews see this, when will white liberals see it for what it is?

  14. This is off topic but was reported today in the New Yorker. It suggests that Trump’s staff is not doing what he tells them to do.

    From New Yorker—- “The Justice Department, meanwhile, went to court in an effort to stop A. T. & T.’s acquisition of Time Warner, which owns CNN. Time Warner saw the deal as essential to its survival at a time when the media business is increasingly dominated by giant competitors such as Google and Facebook. Murdoch understood this impulse: in 2014, 21st Century Fox had tried, unsuccessfully, to buy Time Warner. For him, opposing his rivals’ deal was a matter of shrewd business. Trump also opposed the deal, but many people suspected that his objection was a matter of petty retaliation against CNN. Although Presidents have traditionally avoided expressing opinions about legal matters pending before the judicial branch, Trump has bluntly criticized the plan. The day after the Justice Department filed suit to stop it, he declared the proposed merger “not good for the country.” Trump also claimed that he was “not going to get involved,” and the Justice Department has repeatedly assured the public that he hasn’t done so.

    However, in the late summer of 2017, a few months before the Justice Department filed suit, Trump ordered Gary Cohn, then the director of the National Economic Council, to pressure the Justice Department to intervene. According to a well-informed source, Trump called Cohn into the Oval Office along with John Kelly, who had just become the chief of staff, and said in exasperation to Kelly, “I’ve been telling Cohn to get this lawsuit filed and nothing’s happened! I’ve mentioned it fifty times. And nothing’s happened. I want to make sure it’s filed. I want that deal blocked!”

    Cohn, a former president of Goldman Sachs, evidently understood that it would be highly improper for a President to use the Justice Department to undermine two of the most powerful companies in the country as punishment for unfavorable news coverage, and as a reward for a competing news organization that boosted him. According to the source, as Cohn walked out of the meeting he told Kelly, “Don’t you fucking dare call the Justice Department. We are not going to do business that way.”

    A spokesperson for Cohn declined to comment, and Kelly did not respond to inquiries from The New Yorker, but a former White House official confirmed that Trump often “vented” in “frustration” about wanting to block the A. T. & T.-Time Warner merger. “The President does not understand the nuances of antitrust law or policy,” the former official says. “But he wanted to bring down the hammer.” (Last month, a federal court ruled against the Justice Department.)”

    Was Gary Cohn merely following the rules, or was he being an obstructionist to Trump’s agenda? His Wikipedia article is interesting. He is actually a Democrat.

  15. Over the long term, Iran is a natural geopolitical ally of the US and Saudi Arabia is doomed. Both the US and Israel would be better off preparing for that future rather than pretending that MBS is some kind of liberal reformer. Yes, Saudi Arabia has been a very useful ally to the US in terms of giving the US greater control over energy markets at the expense of Russia and Iran, but the Saudi form of Islam is by far the most blinkered and medieval. It is the Saudis who fund the mosques that breed terrorists in Western Europe, not the Iranians. The idea that the Iranians would start a nuclear holocaust is simply ludicrous. They have no motivation whatsoever to do that. What they want, like North Korea, is some leverage. Trump ripping up the Iran deal was ridiculous, a present to the Neocons that doesn’t benefit him or the US or even Israel in the slightest.

    • Israel is totally screwed and Uncle Sam needs to hurry up and write off that liability. The collapse will be messy, and it’s closer to eight years than thirty years off. The last fifteen years have made clear they have no military advantage over the neighbors (nothing but defeats), yet they’ve severely pissed everyone off with attacks and sponsored terrorist shit-stirring. They’ve already got no support in Europe and are critically dependent on a USA that will not demographically care about them very soon. Entities like AIPAC also are increasingly pissing off otherwise sympathetic Americans.

      They bet everything on taking out Assad and they failed. They’re going to be clinging to helicopters out of Tel Aviv in my lifetime.
