From Haaretz:

‘He’s a Goy From Kenya’: Israeli Officials Defend Deportation of Jewish Convert From Africa

Responding to accusations of racism, senior Interior Ministry official asks lawmakers, ‘Do you want half of Africa coming here?’

Judy Maltz Jan 03, 2018 2:20 PM

Opposition lawmakers on Wednesday accused the Interior Ministry of outright racism and discrimination against black Jews, citing the recent case of an African convert who was deported hours after landing in Israel, even though he had a valid visa.

Here’s Yehuda blowing the shofar with his little son looking on.

By the way, a lot of Kenya is pretty nice due to altitude. Looks like plenty of rainfall, and both father and son are wearing quilted jackets, so this must be at a considerable elevation.

Kenyan citizen Yehuda Kimani, 31, had obtained permission from the Israeli ambassador in Nairobi to study at a yeshiva run by the Conservative movement in Jerusalem. But after being detained at the airport, he was not allowed to call his sponsors in Israel. …

Responding to the allegations, the director of the ministry’s Population Registry and Status Department, Amos Arbel, denied that different criteria are applied to visa applicants based on their country of origin. However, he also asked his detractors: “Do you want half of Africa coming here?”

Half of Africa is rapidly becoming a large number:

Arbel said that as far as the ministry was concerned, Kimani was not Jewish: “Sorry to say this, but for us he is a goy from Kenya.” …

They explained that in the case of non-degree-conferring institutions of higher education, such as yeshivas, the ministry only approves student visas for applicants recognized as Jewish. To date, Israel has yet to recognize the Abayudaya – the community to which Kimani belongs and which is based in Uganda – as Jewish. They are, however, recognized as Jewish by the Jewish Agency.

Kimani’s conversion to Judaism in 2010 was overseen by the rabbi from the Abayudaya community in Uganda.

The Abayudaya community split from Christianity in the early 20th century when its members began identifying as Jews and observing Jewish laws and customs. The community numbers somewhere between 1,500 and 2,000 members. …

Saying he preferred to avoid the term “racism,” Jewish Agency Deputy Chairman David Breakstone warned: “I suspect our enemies will latch onto this to call us racists, and Kimani will become the poster boy for the BDS [Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions] movement and for those who call Israel an apartheid state.”

On the other hand, do you want half of Africa coming there?

I thought, though, that Judaism had a pretty good method for discouraging all but the most pious adult male converts? I wouldn’t want to be the guy at the airport assigned to check, however.

  1. a yeshiva run by the Conservative movement

    His real problem. Do you know who controls Israel’s Ministry of the Interior?

  2. How can there even be “black Jews”?

    Isn’t that “lack of truth in advertising”?

    Jewish Agency Deputy Chairman David Breakstone warned: “I suspect our enemies will latch onto this to call us racists, and Kimani will become the poster boy for the BDS [Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions] movement and for those who call Israel an apartheid state.”

    I don’t care Mr Breakstone. BDS is a good idea due to the very unsolved Palestinian problem, not due to Blacks being admitted to Israel or not.

    No it's a left-multiculturalist project. A bad idea for nationalists to climb onto.

    The correct approach is what Steve has been doing. Highlight the contradiction between Jewish behavior in Israel and here, with an eye to shaming the more manly, naturally conservative Jewish guys to think about being patriots, team-players and defenders for the American side as well. And to encourage them to think more rationally--less Ellis Island schmaltz--about whether mass non-white immigration is really "good for the Jews". And then encourage them to push their ethnic kin toward those "fair play" and "home team America" sentiments, instead of their reflex ethnic resentments.

    Unless you've got a great plan to herd them all into camps for deportation, we need to actually convert a significant tranche of American Jews to believing and saying things akin to what Netanyahu is saying--but about this nation's borders.

    There is no "unsolved" Palestinian problem. There is only a refugee problem. One group is comprised of Arabs who are having a lot of children; with the intent of flooding the country with unemployable youth. The other group is blacks; who are very dangerous and equally unemployable.

    Israel is a Jewish, Semitic country; just as America is a white Christian country. To allow anything less is to give the Muslims and Blacks free reign to destroy Western civilization. Both refugee groups should be expelled from America and Israel.

    The entire BDS movement is supported by idiotic college students who don't even know what is at stake.

    Oh, you’ve got that right, Mr. Breakstone.

    Although I’ll certainly have a bit of fun with this, I actually wish you will in your efforts. I’d be the first to pop the champagne if the Arabs took out Israel, but I refuse to play this game of “negrify thy neighbor” – a game we’ll all lose. Illegal Africans out!

  6. It was a hard decision for anyone to have made but the reality is that Israel already has a very irritating “African problem” – mainly in the poorest area of Tel Aviv – which dates from the years and months before the security barrier was completed.

  7. He’s not Jewish and if allowed in you would have many Africans attempting the same ruse. Tge Israeli official did the right thing. Look folks on here get mad at Jews for being liberal on immigration here but not in Israel.

    This spokesman is immediately aware of the optics. He also fully realizes that Israel has enemies, as opposed to US spokespeople who assume that everyone loves us since we are giving our country away in a vain effort to buy friends.

    Seems that there needs to be a shift in thinking, a shift that acknowledges that "racism" and "apartheid" are rational conclusions in some situations.

    One tactic here for Israel et al is to have a policy where every immigrant must be matched by an emigrant. If someone from Kenya wants to immigrate to country X, there must be an extant citizen of country X that emigrates to Kenya. This would begin to acknowledge that countries can be "full" of citizens; that we can't grow to infinity. Too many look upon countries as large box stores: the more people that come through the door, the better. But large box stores can certainly become overcrowded. Time to start taking a number.

    True. But it is their fault for trying to trick non-Jewish whites in the first place as part of a strategy to weaken non-Jewish whites (presumably to prevent future coordinated attacks against Jews). Just because a con man finds an easy mark doesn't make it any less of a crime.

    That being said, I refuse to lump whites with all of the other loser victim groups. We have agency. Jews are smart and control a huge portion of the commanding heights of society, but if non-Jewish whites didn't want this to happen, we would have stopped it. Returning to the con man analogy, you can't con an honest man. A large portion of whites get something out of all of this, whether that be more power, good feelings, whatever, or it would have been stopped.

    Reminds me of something the famous trend following investor Ed Sekota said about about investors: "Win or lose, everybody gets what they want out of the market. Some people seem to like to lose, so they win by losing money."

    At the moment, whites seem to like to lose, so we're winning by losing. How long that will last, no one can say. Trends last until they don't.

    Different thread, same non-sequitur. I'll repeat what i said in the previous thread:

    Huh? Nothing is *preventing* other than the political forces–ideological, propaganda, financial–arrayed one way or another.

    That’s what the argument/discussion is all about. Who’s on what side, pushing for what policies.
     

    I'm 100% with you, on the "plow ahead". That's what nationalists must do. But why is this much more difficult in America than Israel? Why is immigration the issue on which politicians and the elite class is most out of touch with their nominal constituents? Why do we have the leading US environmental organization against immigration restriction? (Unlike the lame/clumsy "sell more toilet paper" economic "case" for immigration, there isn't even the flimiest case that immigration isn't environmentally destructive.) Why was able-to-self-finance Trump articulating immigration positions so much closer to Republican constituents than the donor financed competition? Why does any mention of ordinary enforcement or restriction measures engender a avalanch of media abuse?

    Again this stuff is the stuff of analysis and argument. People interested in these questions pretty much immediately find that there's an over-the-top Jewish skew to the media/academic/financial people and organizations specifically opposing rational immigration policy (rational for American citizens) and nationalism in general. They--quite rationally--call this out. When Israel's policies--generally unapologetically ethno-nationalist--are brought up, it's logical to highlight the contradiction: nationalism for thee, but not for me, huh?

  8. He was going to Israel to study at a Conservative yeshiva. The Conservative movement is heterodox. If you convert under its auspices, you are indeed still a goy.

  9. Black Jews — two great tastes that taste great together!

  10. This is One Million Dollar question. The people, everywhere, do not. Their leaders, in too many places, do.

    If the people’s preference is maintained, good. If the leaders’ preference is enacted, it’s irreversible. It’s over.

  11. There is a significant number (several thousand) of “black Israelites” who have their own community right next to the Hasidics in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. If you visit NYC, might see their table set up in Times Square preaching and begging . One was the owner of a local liquor store who was murdered a few year back. Champion boxer Zab Judah and his family were or are prominent members.

  12. Off topic:

    The NFL Chose to Tank Its Season Rather Than Sign Colin Kaepernick

    https://www.thenation.com/article/the-nfl-chose-to-tank-its-season-rather-than-sign-colin-kaepernick/

    Colin Kaepernick is a team-saving, one-in-a-generation talent:

    In 2016, Kaepernick threw for 16 touchdowns and had only four interceptions … while leading the NFL in yards per carry.

    Despite this, suicidal coaches and team owners refused to sign him, thus dooming their businesses to ruin.

    Despite a desperate need for his services, these multibillion dollar corporate entities made the decision to tank rather than sign him to a contract. People have already lost their jobs as head coaches and general managers because they chose—or were ordered—to put awful or unprepared quarterbacks under center rather than field the best possible team.

    Colin will get his revenge when his lawsuit goes to trial, but can the fans, the teams, and the league ever recover from a Colin-free season?

    Kaepernick’s current collusion lawsuit against the NFL should not be complicated. It should be as basic as showing videotape from the 2017 season and asking the question, “Why would multiple NFL teams with playoff hopes willingly choose to tank rather than sign me?

    Good idea. We should call this policy "reciprocity". Taking it as given that all immigrants make America a little more like the places they come from, reciprocity would crowdsource (in a good sense) the decision; if a lot of Americans choose to emigrate to country X, then country X is a place Americans enjoy living in and so we should welcome a fair number of their people to come here. And if X=Somalia, well, sorry, our Somalia quota this year was just five people, better luck next year.

    You must have not been to very many countries then. Israel is less PC than the US or Western Europe, but it is nowhere near as racist as any of the Arab countries, the South Asian Countries, East Asia, etc.

    Many fled South Africa after the end of apartheid because they didn’t want to live in a black controlled country.
     
    People with a South African heritage total around 50,000 (less than 1%) of Israel's population, and the vast majority of those were families established in Israel long before the end of Apartheid. Abba Eban was a famous founding Israeli from South Africa. They are concentrated in and near a small, wealthy, English-speaking suburb of Tel Aviv called Savyon.

  20. A few things to know, in no particular order:

    1) Haaretz has devolved from a paper of record in the olden days to an SJW clickbait (and the paper version of clickbait) rag, supported solely by infusions of cash from European NGOs. It is similar to the trajectory of The Guardian, but worse. Don’t trust what they report to be 100% accurate, necessarily.

    2) There is a complicated status quo in Israel between competing definitions of being Jewish. The Jewish Agency which is in charge of permanent immigration has an ethnic definition and considers anyone with one Jewish grandparent to be Jewish, hence the immigration of nominally Christian people from Ukraine. They also allow various minor ethnic groups who have just decided they are Jewish to immigrate, such as some Himalayan hill tribes from Eastern India.

    3) However this person was not an immigrant. He was apparently trying to get a student visa, which put him at the mercy of a different office which adheres to a religious definition. The Conservative Movement is not recognized in Israel as valid for performing conversions to Judaism, so he’s SOL for a student visa. Ironically, if he tried to just immigrate, he would probably get in.

    4) It appears as though this person did have a legitimate claim to enter, but as the minister said all of Africa would like to be in Israel given the chance, so there has to be some vetting somehow.

    5) This will be spun as racist by those who don’t like Israel, but anything that happens in Israel is spun as racist by those people, so who cares. I am reminded again of how Mondoweiss (proudly linked on this site’s blogroll) declared Israel racist because there have been no rapes of Arab women by Israeli soldiers.

  21. Wasn’t there a Die Antwoord song about forced male genital mutilation? Seems like genital modification overall is a very African activity.

  22. I wouldn’t want to be the guy at the airport assigned to check, however.

    Hey, it’s part of the job description of a TSA agent as it is already. Some people don’t mind at all, in fact.

    OK, nobody wants to hear about “muh freedoms”, right?

    That stuff not withstanding, I’m in total agreement with the post, and “heh!” to the last paragraph.

  23. >Do you want half of Africa coming here?

    No, they want half to come to America and half to come to Europe. Simple, right?

  24. “On the other hand, do you want half of Africa coming there?”

    As we watch South Africa, the number one destination for most Africans looking for a better life, sink into the mire of traditional African politics and corruption as usual and nation and economy destruction, this is a question everyone north of the Sahara needs to seriously ask themselves.

  25. Looks like a plan. You were born in a lousy African nation, you convert, then immigrate to your ancient homeland of Israel. As far as I know Kenya is one of the better, saner African nations. They love grilled goat there and eat so much of it that the men get a rich man’s disease called gout. U cn lk t up!

    The phrase "You can't con an honest man" is frequently used by con men themselves, in order to convince overly trusting people who have a few concerns about the con that is being used on them. (I am not saying that this is you btw, I am taking issue with the phrase.)

    Numerous examples here:

    http://www.onlinedebate.net/forums/showthread.php/21074-You-CANNOT-con-an-honest-man-really

    For example, selling a $6k water softener worth $600 to an honest pensioner. Asking to give money on the basis of false medical or other problems. Decisions made by honest people when under the influence of alcohol.

    I think it's hard to con a well-read, worldly, naturally distrusting, fairly realistic and intelligent tightwad. It can still happen but the scale will be limited.

    An over-simplification, my friend. Ask any Russian in Israel. And there's plenty of those.

    If the "weight of the evidence" is that you want to immigrate to Israel for non-economic reasons, then almopst always you will at least be allowed to have multiple renewals of a Temporary Residency.

    After that, just marry a local-yokal, or put your existing kid into a local Public school. And maintain a clean police record.

    Example: almost none of the Filipino over-stayers actually get deported, or even hassled. And there's plenty of those.

    Can't speak to Islam but when it comes to Judaism it depends on the denomination of the rabbi performing the conversion. Conservative and Reform Judaism are not concerned with the state of the convert's dong at all. A Modern Orthodox rabbi will consider an already circumcised male to be sufficiently altered for conversion. However an Ultra-Orthodox rabbi will require a symbolic pinprick of blood.

    Unfortunately, when it comes to Israel, due to the complicated power-sharing status quo agreement, the Ultra-Orthodox rabbinate controls some of the levers of immigration, so if you would like to immigrate to Israel as a convert to Judaism you will need the pinprick. Ironically, if you want to immigrate to Israel not as a convert to Judaism but because you can show that one of your grandparents was a Jew, then you can have the foreskinniest wang in the world and it's no problem.

For journalists that are so outraged by these kinds of stories, maybe you would do better to report on the actual political corruption and instability in Africa, which is hampering development, and providing a motive for mass emigration, rather than using as some kind of political point scoring people’s natural reactions to being flooded with new arrivals.

    The problem is that this would require real journalism, on the ground, in countries which (unlike Israel) might be unsafe for journalists to report from. That is, it would take some real bravery and actual work.

    As everywhere, the main barriers to economic development in Africa are likely government corruption, and lack of political institutions and property rights. There must be thousands of untold stories – but those of us outside Africa, get very little reporting on the actual problems there.

  46. Note that a Conservative yeshiva invited the African to live and study in Israel. Conservative Jews sponsored him and he was prevented from calling those same Conservative Jews.

    The barely concealed subtext of this event is the power struggle between Conservative [and Reform] Jews and the ruling Orthodox Jews. Can the Orthodox be forced to share power with Conservative and Reform Jews in Israel? For Israel’s survival, I hope not.

    The Conservative sect embraces a peculiar –almost suicidal — belief in Open Borders. In a recent official statement they elevated Open Borders to the central tenet of their sect. As their leaders in the US have declared:

    Let us be clear: there is no religious obligation more central to Judaism than the protection of refugees and immigrants. “You shall not wrong a stranger or oppress him, for you were strangers in the Land of Egypt.” (Exodus 22:20). According to the Rabbis of the Talmud, the Torah admonishes us no fewer than 36 times to treat those who are foreign born with fairness and compassion. No other commandment is repeated so often.

    [President Trump’s] executive order [re Muslim immigration] flies in the face of that biblical principle—a principle upon which this country was founded and which has enriched the United States with a diversity of cultures, intellectual achievements, and artistic accomplishments. As an institution of higher learning, JTS has benefitted immeasurably from foreign born scholars who joined the faculty of JTS and contributed to its standing as one of the great institutions of religious scholarship in North America. We continue to attract students and visiting faculty from abroad and our community is richer as a result. The attack on immigration is an attack on the intellectual life of this country and on all institutions of higher education that nurture that life.

    We stand with our Muslim neighbors, both here and abroad, for we are all neighbors in this ever shrinking globe.

And then make the other side give a number and make them defend it. If we say 150k and they say 2 million, they sound nuts. And if we settled at 500k, that’s way more than half which is a pretty good start.

    Even if my strategy is wrong, I still think it’s worthwhile to try to get the pro immigration traitors to say how many immigrants they want.

    Good observation/argument/comment 27.

    Having an analytical bent, i'd like to think that the zero immigration case is pretty easy to make. In terms of just basic math/logic immigration, once our tribe (Euro whites) had stolen the country from the natives and filled it up, basically makes no sense. Continuing immigration now is either a) population replacement (your line dies and is replaced) or b) filling the nation up to the point that it's so darn crowded and unpleasant that no one else wants to come.

    The only immigration one would logically want would be very highly capable people, who are a good ethno-cultural fit and will (and you'd want them to) assimilate and inter-breed with your native population. Anyone else--endogamous tribes, mass numbers from any place who will form an ethnic enclave/block--is bad news. And folks who are low IQ who'll be a subpar contributors and drag down your genetics or are from hostile tribes--taking those folks is just insane.

    So being logically oriented i'd tend to make the case for zero immigration.

    But i think, you're strategy is probably the better one. Pick a number--i'd say 100K explicitly of the most highly talented folks we could get, who are ready to specifically abjure allegiance to their homelands and swear their allegiance to America and their loyalty to their fellow Americans. Then the loons have to pick a number and defend it.

    Of course, it's worse than that now. They don't even want to pick a big number--a number is a limit and limits are racist. What they say now basically boils down to the principal of open immigration. But yeah, we need to make all this explicit. Force them to say the insane, nasty nonsense that they actually believe--again and again and again.

    I think that is a very good idea (especially for a 27-year old). Most people are innumerate as all hell, or at least, they don’t have a handle on big picture numbers. As your 1st replyer, istevefan, said, that number even has a precedent. Keep throwing that number out around and around.

    It’s like the 11,000,000 illegal immigrant number, not in terms of truth vs. lies, as I would bet we have 25-40 million illegals. It’s just that they keep spouting out that number, so it gets said by everyone, even lots of those whose job it’s supposed to be to really know this stuff.

    Different thread, same non-sequitur. I’ll repeat what i said in the previous thread:

    I’m 100% with you, on the “plow ahead”. That’s what nationalists must do. But why is this much more difficult in America than Israel? Why is immigration the issue on which politicians and the elite class is most out of touch with their nominal constituents? Why do we have the leading US environmental organization against immigration restriction? (Unlike the lame/clumsy “sell more toilet paper” economic “case” for immigration, there isn’t even the flimiest case that immigration isn’t environmentally destructive.) Why was able-to-self-finance Trump articulating immigration positions so much closer to Republican constituents than the donor financed competition? Why does any mention of ordinary enforcement or restriction measures engender a avalanch of media abuse?

    Again this stuff is the stuff of analysis and argument. People interested in these questions pretty much immediately find that there’s an over-the-top Jewish skew to the media/academic/financial people and organizations specifically opposing rational immigration policy (rational for American citizens) and nationalism in general. They–quite rationally–call this out. When Israel’s policies–generally unapologetically ethno-nationalist–are brought up, it’s logical to highlight the contradiction: nationalism for thee, but not for me, huh?

    Let me quote some of it for you:


    On Aug. 14, the Reform movement and the New York–based Jewish refugee agency HIAS called on the Israeli government to re-examine its asylum policy for African migrants.

    Noting in a press release that the groups are “longstanding friends of Israel and committed advocates for the well-being of the Jewish state,” Union for Reform Judaism President Rabbi Rick Jacobs questioned why Israel approves a dramatically lower percentage of asylum applications from Eritreans and Sudanese than do other developed countries.

    “We are deeply concerned because Israel currently accepts less than 1 percent of refugee claims. In other developed countries, 82 percent of Eritrean applicants and 68 percent of Sudanese applicants are recognized as refugees,” Mark Hetfield, president and CEO of HIAS, said in the news release. “We urge the [Israeli] government to set an example by treating African migrants with dignity and respect.”

Many don't even know what our population is, don't know where we rank with other nations, and don't realize the only nations with comparable or higher population levels are generally hell holes.

    150K is about what we took annually from 1924 until the Immigration Act of 1965 came along. 150K would actually have some historical precendent

    That’s all true, and I’ll add one more. Most people have no idea, even the ones that understand that keeping the population reasonable wrt the area of good land is a good idea, that the American population would have been stable long ago if it hadn’t been for the 1965 immigration act and our porous southern border.

    Most don't realize our nation is fully settled. Or that we don't have the factory jobs of 100 years ago and that automation is going to reduce more jobs in the future.

    Here's a statistic people should know. In 1940 we had around 140 million people. That allowed us to have around 12 million serve in WW2 and work our factories that churned out uncountable numbers of planes, tanks, ships and munitions. Today our population is over 325 million and climbing. We are number 3 only behind China and India. If we still had our 1940 population numbers, we'd still rank around number 10, trailing only China, India and a who's who list of winners like Pakistan and Bangladesh.

    Without the 1965 act, our population would probably be around 260 million today which would mean we'd still be in third place.

    An over-simplification, my friend. Ask any Russian in Israel. And there’s plenty of those.

    If the “weight of the evidence” is that you want to immigrate to Israel for non-economic reasons, then almopst always you will at least be allowed to have multiple renewals of a Temporary Residency.

    After that, just marry a local-yokal, or put your existing kid into a local Public school. And maintain a clean police record.

    Circumcision in the US and white Comminwealth countries had absolutely nothing to do with "normalization of Jewish practices, as an effect of massive overrepresentation."

    Circumcision for male babies became standard in the Royal Family as far back as the reign of George I. The practice spread to British aristocrats and then the upper middle-class, becoming common in Britain during the Victorian era. The same was true for the US and Canada.

    Rates of circumcision have dropped somewhat in the US and much more so in the UK, Canada, and Australia during the last 40 years.

    That wasn't because of Jewish "overrepresentation" in the Anglosphere during the 1700s and its sharp decline during the last forty years.

    Good observation/argument/comment 27.

    Having an analytical bent, i’d like to think that the zero immigration case is pretty easy to make. In terms of just basic math/logic immigration, once our tribe (Euro whites) had stolen the country from the natives and filled it up, basically makes no sense. Continuing immigration now is either a) population replacement (your line dies and is replaced) or b) filling the nation up to the point that it’s so darn crowded and unpleasant that no one else wants to come.

    The only immigration one would logically want would be very highly capable people, who are a good ethno-cultural fit and will (and you’d want them to) assimilate and inter-breed with your native population. Anyone else–endogamous tribes, mass numbers from any place who will form an ethnic enclave/block–is bad news. And folks who are low IQ who’ll be a subpar contributors and drag down your genetics or are from hostile tribes–taking those folks is just insane.

    So being logically oriented i’d tend to make the case for zero immigration.

    But i think, you’re strategy is probably the better one. Pick a number–i’d say 100K explicitly of the most highly talented folks we could get, who are ready to specifically abjure allegiance to their homelands and swear their allegiance to America and their loyalty to their fellow Americans. Then the loons have to pick a number and defend it.

    Of course, it’s worse than that now. They don’t even want to pick a big number–a number is a limit and limits are racist. What they say now basically boils down to the principal of open immigration. But yeah, we need to make all this explicit. Force them to say the insane, nasty nonsense that they actually believe–again and again and again.

    ...David Breakstone warned: “I suspect our enemies will latch onto this to call us racists, and Kimani will become the poster boy for the BDS [Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions] movement and for those who call Israel an apartheid state."
     
    This spokesman is immediately aware of the optics. He also fully realizes that Israel has enemies, as opposed to US spokespeople who assume that everyone loves us since we are giving our country away in a vain effort to buy friends.

    Seems that there needs to be a shift in thinking, a shift that acknowledges that "racism" and "apartheid" are rational conclusions in some situations.

    One tactic here for Israel et al is to have a policy where every immigrant must be matched by an emigrant. If someone from Kenya wants to immigrate to country X, there must be an extant citizen of country X that emigrates to Kenya. This would begin to acknowledge that countries can be "full" of citizens; that we can't grow to infinity. Too many look upon countries as large box stores: the more people that come through the door, the better. But large box stores can certainly become overcrowded. Time to start taking a number.

    Replies: @International Jew

    a policy where every immigrant must be matched by an emigrant

    Good idea. We should call this policy “reciprocity”. Taking it as given that all immigrants make America a little more like the places they come from, reciprocity would crowdsource (in a good sense) the decision; if a lot of Americans choose to emigrate to country X, then country X is a place Americans enjoy living in and so we should welcome a fair number of their people to come here. And if X=Somalia, well, sorry, our Somalia quota this year was just five people, better luck next year.

  80. Saying he preferred to avoid the term “racism,” Jewish Agency Deputy Chairman David Breakstone warned: “I suspect our enemies will latch onto this to call us racists, …

    Israelis–and other nationalists–should just get over quivering over the whole “racist” nonsense. Of course they are “racist” in that they prefer their own racial/cultural group. That’s called normal. Just own it. “Yes we are racist in prefering Jews. That’s normal and healthy as it is for other people as well.”

    Having their own nation has been really good for the Jews. It’s causing at least some of them to realize that the propaganda they’ve aimed against white gentiles for years is just that … propaganda. Wanting to have your own communities and nations, with neighbors who share your language, religion, holidays, mores, values, culture … that’s normal life. Healthy and good.

    Well, you know Zionists. With them it's, "Do as we say, not as we do". BTW, the Zionists aren't just "liberal on immigration here". They are rabidly insistent that the rest of the world allow unfettered immigration of military age muslim men and totally unproductive Africans, while their own sanctuary nation keeps out anyone not born a jew to two jewish parents.

    Zionists are so far past liberal on immigration here, they couldn't get a bus back to liberal on immigration for everyone but Israel.

    Who are these mysterious ‘Zionists’ that you conspiracy theorists obsess about? If you mean left-wing Jewish people? They are the same ones who write these silly articles attacking Israel’s immigration policy (which is by no means a particularly immoderate one, since these illegal immigrants are being thousands of dollars, and they have spent many years in the country without being deported). I have yet to see anyone support deportation of illegal immigrants in Israel, but not in the America. I have seen people in places like this saying vice-versa though.

    Note that a Conservative yeshiva invited the African to live and study in Israel. Conservative Jews sponsored him and he was prevented from calling those same Conservative Jews.

    The barely concealed subtext of this event is the power struggle between Conservative [and Reform] Jews and the ruling Orthodox Jews. Can the Orthodox be forced to share power with Conservative and Reform Jews in Israel? For Israel's survival, I hope not.

    The Conservative sect embraces a peculiar --almost suicidal -- belief in Open Borders. In a recent official statement they elevated Open Borders to the central tenet of their sect. As their leaders in the US have declared:

    Let us be clear: there is no religious obligation more central to Judaism than the protection of refugees and immigrants. “You shall not wrong a stranger or oppress him, for you were strangers in the Land of Egypt.” (Exodus 22:20). According to the Rabbis of the Talmud, the Torah admonishes us no fewer than 36 times to treat those who are foreign born with fairness and compassion. No other commandment is repeated so often.

    [President Trump's] executive order [re Muslim immigration] flies in the face of that biblical principle—a principle upon which this country was founded and which has enriched the United States with a diversity of cultures, intellectual achievements, and artistic accomplishments. As an institution of higher learning, JTS has benefitted immeasurably from foreign born scholars who joined the faculty of JTS and contributed to its standing as one of the great institutions of religious scholarship in North America. We continue to attract students and visiting faculty from abroad and our community is richer as a result. The attack on immigration is an attack on the intellectual life of this country and on all institutions of higher education that nurture that life.

    We stand with our Muslim neighbors, both here and abroad, for we are all neighbors in this ever shrinking globe. Religious prejudice as reflected in words and policies is a desecration of God’s name and holiness. We will not abide it. “Spiritual betrayal on the part of one of us affects the faith of all of us,” said Professor Heschel.

    Different thread, same non-sequitur. I'll repeat what i said in the previous thread:

    Huh? Nothing is *preventing* other than the political forces–ideological, propaganda, financial–arrayed one way or another.

    That’s what the argument/discussion is all about. Who’s on what side, pushing for what policies.
     

    I'm 100% with you, on the "plow ahead". That's what nationalists must do. But why is this much more difficult in America than Israel? Why is immigration the issue on which politicians and the elite class is most out of touch with their nominal constituents? Why do we have the leading US environmental organization against immigration restriction? (Unlike the lame/clumsy "sell more toilet paper" economic "case" for immigration, there isn't even the flimiest case that immigration isn't environmentally destructive.) Why was able-to-self-finance Trump articulating immigration positions so much closer to Republican constituents than the donor financed competition? Why does any mention of ordinary enforcement or restriction measures engender a avalanch of media abuse?

    Again this stuff is the stuff of analysis and argument. People interested in these questions pretty much immediately find that there's an over-the-top Jewish skew to the media/academic/financial people and organizations specifically opposing rational immigration policy (rational for American citizens) and nationalism in general. They--quite rationally--call this out. When Israel's policies--generally unapologetically ethno-nationalist--are brought up, it's logical to highlight the contradiction: nationalism for thee, but not for me, huh?

Is it Ashkenazi prejudice against non-Ashkenazi Jews?

    True. But it is their fault for trying to trick non-Jewish whites in the first place as part of a strategy to weaken non-Jewish whites (presumably to prevent future coordinated attacks against Jews). Just because a con man finds an easy mark doesn't make it any less of a crime.

    That being said, I refuse to lump whites with all of the other loser victim groups. We have agency. Jews are smart and control a huge portion of the commanding heights of society, but if non-Jewish whites didn't want this to happen, we would have stopped it. Returning to the con man analogy, you can't con an honest man. A large portion of whites get something out of all of this, whether that be more power, good feelings, whatever, or it would have been stopped.

    Reminds me of something the famous trend following investor Ed Sekota said about about investors: "Win or lose, everybody gets what they want out of the market. Some people seem to like to lose, so they win by losing money."

    The phrase “You can’t con an honest man” is frequently used by con men themselves, in order to convince overly trusting people who have a few concerns about the con that is being used on them. (I am not saying that this is you btw, I am taking issue with the phrase.)

    The Ethiopian Jews are failing in Israel according to most measures, but it is probably for different reasons to the African Americans living in the United States.

    The stereotype of Ethiopian Jews in Israel is that they are very shy and not aggressive enough to push their way up (or to form political groups to represent their interests). (The personality profile is quite different to the stereotype of African Americans, who are portrayed - according to stereotypes - as extroverted).

    There is also African American Christian community living in Dimona in Israel. It's kind of cult-group that has created their own Kibbutz. They have US citizenship and keep their American culture, but they serve in the Israeli army and are considered quite popular (a kind of tourist attraction).

    Although I’ll certainly have a bit of fun with this, I actually wish you well in your efforts.

    Agreed! Though I don’t wish the Jewish diaspora so well. I hope all their political, cultural, and social, efforts fail miserably.

    It was a hard decision for anyone to have made but the reality is that Israel already has a very irritating “African problem” – mainly in the poorest area of Tel Aviv – which dates from the years and months before the security barrier was completed.

    Yeah that less than 1% of the Israel population that’s black is a real disaster. When Zionists aren’t using them as props to prove how “diverse” Israel is, I mean. Zionists do have a point, though; the black population of Israel is way more than needed for deceptive propaganda photos.

    It’s not their fault if American leaders are too timid to speak forthright on these issues and Israeli leaders have no such problem. You have to be able to ignore the media, human rights groups and just plow ahead.

    Yeah Ed, it kinda is. Jews bribe our politicians to go along with open borders. You do understand it’s this kind of existential hostility that keeps giving Jews trouble throughout history, right? Then you get the layer of chutzpah smeared over the top, and it really starts to irritate.

    Apparently, the EU, The Economist, Soros etc etc, basically the people who own, run, rule and control the western world *DO*.

    And they’ll call you stupid if you dare disagree with them.

    Until I see something more concrete, I say Soros is in the lip service category on this one.

    2) There is a complicated status quo in Israel between competing definitions of being Jewish. The Jewish Agency which is in charge of permanent immigration has an ethnic definition and considers anyone with one Jewish grandparent to be Jewish, hence the immigration of nominally Christian people from Ukraine. They also allow various minor ethnic groups who have just decided they are Jewish to immigrate, such as some Himalayan hill tribes from Eastern India.

    Yeah, the definitions range from “racist” to “really racist.”

    Biz, these are the Jews we’re talking about, here. Where’s the compassion, the historical memory? Where are the Jewish leftists tearing down racism and discrimination? You’d think in a majority-Jewish country the problem would be solved in 10 seconds flat, instead it’s the opposite!

    This will be spun as racist by those who don’t like Israel

    It is bloody racist, lol. And I like Israel. I dislike the American Jewish diaspora, but I like Israel.

    Returning to the con man analogy, you can’t con an honest man.

    You can’t be an honest con man, either. He’s the instigator and the profit-taker. Funny, our backwards law doesn’t put people in jail for being conned.

    A large portion of whites get something out of all of this, whether that be more power, good feelings, whatever, or it would have been stopped.

    Compliance with the Jewish carrot and stick.

    Reminds me of a lot of shit thieves say about their targets.

    At the moment, whites seem to like to lose, so we’re winning by losing. How long that will last, no one can say. Trends last until they don’t.

    If Jews all made Aliyah tomorrow, the day after we wouldn’t be winning by losing anymore.

    For journalists that are so outraged by these kinds of stories, maybe you would do better to report on the actual political corruption and instability in Africa, which is hampering development, and providing a motive for mass emigration, rather than using as some kind of political point scoring people’s natural reactions to being flooded with new arrivals.

    True: Jews always did nothing wrong.

    Israelis–and other nationalists–should just get over quivering over the whole “racist” nonsense. Of course they are “racist” in that they prefer their own racial/cultural group. That’s called normal. Just own it. “Yes we are racist in prefering Jews. That’s normal and healthy as it is for other people as well.”

    I’ve done some arguing with English-speaking Zionists. 99% are completely full of it and have a strong need to portray everything Israel does as comporting with leftist sensibilities. 1% are straightforward.

    Who are these mysterious ‘Zionists’ that you conspiracy theorists obsess about? If you mean left-wing Jewish people? They are the same ones who write these silly articles attacking Israel’s immigration policy (which is by no means a particularly immoderate one, since these illegal immigrants are being thousands of dollars, and they have spent many years in the country without being deported).

    Ah, chutzpah. You guys would be cute, viewed across a strong border. American Jewry is left wing. They vote 70%+ for Democrats, a far higher rate than any other White demo. And yes, obviously they’re Zionist. They control the press, but never report the sort of honesty on display in this thread. They have huge influence over both major parties, but use it to suppress the sort of conversation we’re having here. They use it to support Israel. You do know there is practically zero criticism of Zionism in American establishment politics, right? That the critique offered here gets people expelled (by Jews or their agents, or those working out of fear of either) from the American establishment, right?

    I have yet to see anyone support deportation of illegal immigrants in Israel, but not in the America. I have seen people in places like this saying vice-versa though.

    Nonsense. All of American Jewry supports it.

    Liberal US Jews are no more supportive of Israel’s attempts at self-preservation, than they are of America’s.

    Rot. Nonsense. Utter rubbish. Diaspora Jews are very supportive of Israel. They make almost no noise about this, when they should be up in arms (ostensibly, if you’re too thick to grasp the concept of Jewish Supremacism, i.e., hypocritical double standards).

  94. Unless you’ve got a great plan to herd them all into camps for deportation, we need to actually convert a significant tranche of American Jews to believing and saying things akin to what Netanyahu is saying–but about this nation’s borders.

    I reject your false dilemma. We should completely ruin Jews’ reputation and use shunning, and its equivalents, to remove them from power. Make it so their money doesn’t translate into power. Relying on them to do the right thing is insane.

    The racial stock of Jews in Israel is already highly mixed, so I think your touch of the tar brush type of fear is out of place. What's the point? To ensure Israel's strength. Native born Israeli Jews certainly don't want to in large numbers live in the settlements but those military outposts need to be populated. The best way to go about it is to find a group of settlers from outside of Israel that can be brought in to do the job. Enter the Ethiopian converts who have several generations of Jewish identity in their lineage and a shared racial identity with the Ethiopian Jews in Israel. This is a group that can be assimilated and live in the settlements. They can also supply infantry, which is only going to become a growing problem. Since the Lebanon War over a decade ago it has become apparent that urbanites don't want to fight in wars. There is the added bonus that if a lot of these guys die fighting in the next war, it will make assimilation much quicker and complete.

    I still think you're too hard on us. Take an average person (of any religion) with some vague liberal instincts, put him on an all-MSM diet, and you'll get a supporter of "openish" borders (and much other nonsense too). Hell, I consider myself a natural skeptic and contrarian, but if our government had somehow prevented dissident right web sites from ever taking root, I'd probably believe today that Salvadoran "refugees" are mostly nice kids who "fled violence", and that Somalis are rapidly assimilating to Minnesota Lutheran niceness.

    I don’t know how any self-respecting white gentile male can consider converting to Judaism.

    It is not like converting to be a Catholic or a Lutheran or even a Mormon. It is not a universal religion, but an ethnic group.

    I get females–like Ivanka, though i’d be strongly against my daughters doing it–they are delivering themselves (body and soul) to their husband and becoming one of his people. Women do surrender themselves–it’s inherent in the act. If you’re letting a man plant his seed in you–you’re his, part of his people.

    But a guy converting? You’re just selling out your birthright as a white man. And for what? Saying a bunch of mumbo jumbo does not change your lineage and make you a Jew. This guy should just cut his balls off.

    Returning to the con man analogy, you can’t con an honest man. A large portion of whites get something out of all of this, whether that be more power, good feelings, whatever, or it would have been stopped.

    The phrase "You can't con an honest man" is frequently used by con men themselves, in order to convince overly trusting people who have a few concerns about the con that is being used on them. (I am not saying that this is you btw, I am taking issue with the phrase.)

    Numerous examples here:

    http://www.onlinedebate.net/forums/showthread.php/21074-You-CANNOT-con-an-honest-man-really

    For example, selling a $6k water softener worth $600 to an honest pensioner. Asking to give money on the basis of false medical or other problems. Decisions made by honest people when under the influence of alcohol.

    Speaking of circumcision, I was told once that if a man who was circumcised at birth wants to convert to Islam and maybe Judaism as an adult the rabbi or imam will make him undergo “symbolic circumcision”.

    Replies: @Melendwyr, @biz

    Can’t speak to Islam but when it comes to Judaism it depends on the denomination of the rabbi performing the conversion. Conservative and Reform Judaism are not concerned with the state of the convert’s dong at all. A Modern Orthodox rabbi will consider an already circumcised male to be sufficiently altered for conversion. However an Ultra-Orthodox rabbi will require a symbolic pinprick of blood.

    Unfortunately, when it comes to Israel, due to the complicated power-sharing status quo agreement, the Ultra-Orthodox rabbinate controls some of the levers of immigration, so if you would like to immigrate to Israel as a convert to Judaism you will need the pinprick. Ironically, if you want to immigrate to Israel not as a convert to Judaism but because you can show that one of your grandparents was a Jew, then you can have the foreskinniest wang in the world and it’s no problem.

    Circumcision in the US and white Comminwealth countries had absolutely nothing to do with “normalization of Jewish practices, as an effect of massive overrepresentation.”

    Circumcision for male babies became standard in the Royal Family as far back as the reign of George I. The practice spread to British aristocrats and then the upper middle-class, becoming common in Britain during the Victorian era. The same was true for the US and Canada.

    Rates of circumcision have dropped somewhat in the US and much more so in the UK, Canada, and Australia during the last 40 years.

    Let me quote some of it for you:


    On Aug. 14, the Reform movement and the New York–based Jewish refugee agency HIAS called on the Israeli government to re-examine its asylum policy for African migrants.

    Noting in a press release that the groups are “longstanding friends of Israel and committed advocates for the well-being of the Jewish state,” Union for Reform Judaism President Rabbi Rick Jacobs questioned why Israel approves a dramatically lower percentage of asylum applications from Eritreans and Sudanese than do other developed countries.

    “We are deeply concerned because Israel currently accepts less than 1 percent of refugee claims. In other developed countries, 82 percent of Eritrean applicants and 68 percent of Sudanese applicants are recognized as refugees,” Mark Hetfield, president and CEO of HIAS, said in the news release. “We urge the [Israeli] government to set an example by treating African migrants with dignity and respect.”

Is it Ashkenazi prejudice against non-Ashkenazi Jews?

    This is a great question and I applaud you for asking it.

    The movement of (many) liberal American Jews away from a pro-Israel stance has myriad interacting causes, but the most important one is that their political liberal identity is more central to them than their Jewish identity. There was a long time when mainstream American liberalism was very pro-Israel, basically from the founding of Israel at least through the 90s, in fact it was more pro-Israel than mainstream conservatism for most of that time. So there was no conflict between liberalism and pro-Israelism for a long time in America, and liberal Jews could have their cake and eat to too so to speak, without even thinking about it too much.

    However since 2000 and especially accelerating in the past few years mainstream American liberalism has wholeheartedly embraced identity politics, intersectionality, and silly victimhood narratives that had previously been more the domain of the loony far-Left, or given only half-hearted lip service by real politicians. I mean who would have predicted, in say 2004, that actual cop killers would be applauded at the 2016 Democratic convention. Part of that turn toward identity politics of course means adopting the far-Left's position on Israel. When facing a conflict between their liberalism and their Jewish identity, clearly most liberal Jews have chosen their liberalism. That shows just how intensely tribal American politics is now. At least when it comes to the chattering classes of America, their political tribe means more to people than their actual tribe!

    -----

    For what it's worth, I do predict somewhat of a turn-around in this in the near future though. For one thing, the identity politics insanity is getting to be too much even for some well-indoctrinated people. Right now they are chuckling about niqabs being called "feminist" and the Berkeley elementary schools having Black Panther Day. But underneath those laughs is unease that just maybe things are going off the rails and should be dialed back - but they won't be dialed back. The other thing is that as Steve has pointed out, the identity politics coalition is not that stable. Many Jews will increasingly get the message that they are not particularly well liked by some elements of that coalition. For example in their mosque sermons, Muslim Imams don't celebrate the Khybar battle where Muhammad's army defeated the Israelis, they celebrate the Khybar battle where Muhammad's army defeated the Jews. Also the weird increasing convergence between the far Left and the far Right on Israel and Jews can serve as a bridge out of leftist politics. It is difficult for a good liberal these days to force themselves to be on the opposite side than Linda Sarsour, but easy to force themselves to be on the opposite side than David Duke.

    Good point IJ.

    I'd still say--though i don't have a survey that asks both questions and my personal dataset is much more limited than yours--that the median US Jew is supportive of Israel as an ethno-nationalist state, but supportive of open or at least "openish" immigration to the US.

    But i certainly agree that the trend is toward leftist Jews in the diaspora being full on loons across the board.

    My perception is that this "diversity" thing is like a mind virus or a cancer. Once you start spouting "diversity!" thoughts--even just to propagandize against/denounce bad thinkers--it starts colonizing more and more of your brain. Once infected, people become less and less capable of doing simple basic rational thought on all matters "diverse".

Most people have no idea, even the ones that understand that keeping the population reasonable wrt the area of good land is a good idea, that the American population would have been stable long ago if it hadn't been for the 1965 immigration act and our porous southern border.

    Here’s a statistic people should know. In 1940 we had around 140 million people. That allowed us to have around 12 million serve in WW2 and work our factories that churned out uncountable numbers of planes, tanks, ships and munitions. Today our population is over 325 million and climbing. We are number 3 only behind China and India. If we still had our 1940 population numbers, we’d still rank around number 10, trailing only China, India and a who’s who list of winners like Pakistan and Bangladesh.

    Without the 1965 act, our population would probably be around 260 million today which would mean we’d still be in third place.

    An additional factoid is that the initial waves of Mexican immigrants were allowed in to harvest fruits and vegetables on large farms, forcing millions of small farmers out of business along with the small businesses and communities they supported. "We" have benefited by getting cheaper fruits and vegetables.

    It has been said that it takes all kinds to make a world. Apparently someone decided that small farmers and the small businessmen they supported were a type we could do without. These folks did tend to be pretty hard-nosed and hard to get along if you crossed them - but hey! Look at all the cheap frozen foods we can buy at Walmart.

    Most don't realize our nation is fully settled. Or that we don't have the factory jobs of 100 years ago and that automation is going to reduce more jobs in the future.

    Here's a statistic people should know. In 1940 we had around 140 million people. That allowed us to have around 12 million serve in WW2 and work our factories that churned out uncountable numbers of planes, tanks, ships and munitions. Today our population is over 325 million and climbing. We are number 3 only behind China and India. If we still had our 1940 population numbers, we'd still rank around number 10, trailing only China, India and a who's who list of winners like Pakistan and Bangladesh.

    It's been a few decades since Israel could be termed a "Western" nation in the classical sense of the word. (I personally look at the 1977 elections as the paradigm changer, but I'm not a Jew and am no expert on Israel, so anybody here is free to correct me.) The majority of Israelis nowadays are either former Soviet emigrants, descendants of those expelled from the Arab World in 1967, or orthodox. In contrast to the remnants of the Labour-supporting Ashkenazim that read and write for shops like Haaretz, these groups view Israel as an explicitly Jewish nation-state, much like Egypt and Saudi Arabia are Arab nation-states.

    It’s not their fault if American leaders are too timid to speak forthright on these issues and Israeli leaders have no such problem.
     
    True. But it is their fault for trying to trick non-Jewish whites in the first place as part of a strategy to weaken non-Jewish whites (presumably to prevent future coordinated attacks against Jews). Just because a con man finds an easy mark doesn't make it any less of a crime.

    That being said, I refuse to lump whites with all of the other loser victim groups. We have agency. Jews are smart and control a huge portion of the commanding heights of society, but if non-Jewish whites didn't want this to happen, we would have stopped it. Returning to the con man analogy, you can't con an honest man. A large portion of whites get something out of all of this, whether that be more power, good feelings, whatever, or it would have been stopped.

    Reminds me of something the famous trend following investor Ed Sekota said about about investors: "Win or lose, everybody gets what they want out of the market. Some people seem to like to lose, so they win by losing money."

    At the moment, whites seem to like to lose, so we're winning by losing. How long that will last, no one can say. Trends last until they don't.

    Note that a Conservative yeshiva invited the African to live and study in Israel. Conservative Jews sponsored him and he was prevented from calling those same Conservative Jews.

    The barely concealed subtext of this event is the power struggle between Conservative [and Reform] Jews and the ruling Orthodox Jews. Can the Orthodox be forced to share power with Conservative and Reform Jews in Israel? For Israel's survival, I hope not.

    The Conservative sect embraces a peculiar --almost suicidal -- belief in Open Borders. In a recent official statement they elevated Open Borders to the central tenet of their sect. As their leaders in the US have declared:

    Let us be clear: there is no religious obligation more central to Judaism than the protection of refugees and immigrants. “You shall not wrong a stranger or oppress him, for you were strangers in the Land of Egypt.” (Exodus 22:20). According to the Rabbis of the Talmud, the Torah admonishes us no fewer than 36 times to treat those who are foreign born with fairness and compassion. No other commandment is repeated so often.

    [President Trump's] executive order [re Muslim immigration] flies in the face of that biblical principle—a principle upon which this country was founded and which has enriched the United States with a diversity of cultures, intellectual achievements, and artistic accomplishments. As an institution of higher learning, JTS has benefitted immeasurably from foreign born scholars who joined the faculty of JTS and contributed to its standing as one of the great institutions of religious scholarship in North America. We continue to attract students and visiting faculty from abroad and our community is richer as a result. The attack on immigration is an attack on the intellectual life of this country and on all institutions of higher education that nurture that life.

    We stand with our Muslim neighbors, both here and abroad, for we are all neighbors in this ever shrinking globe. Religious prejudice as reflected in words and policies is a desecration of God’s name and holiness. We will not abide it. “Spiritual betrayal on the part of one of us affects the faith of all of us,” said Professor Heschel.

    Good point IJ.

    But i certainly agree that the trend is toward leftist Jews in the diaspora being full on loons across the board.

    My perception is that this "diversity" thing is like a mind virus or a cancer. Once you start spouting "diversity!" thoughts--even just to propagandize against/denounce bad thinkers--it starts colonizing more and more of your brain. Once infected, people become less and less capable of doing simple basic rational thought on all matters "diverse".

Native born Israeli Jews certainly don’t want to in large numbers live in the settlements but those military outposts need to be populated. The best way to go about it is to find a group of settlers from outside of Israel that can be brought in to do the job. Enter the Ethiopian converts who have several generations of Jewish identity in their lineage and a shared racial identity with the Ethiopian Jews in Israel. This is a group that can be assimilated and live in the settlements. They can also supply infantry, which is only going to become a growing problem. Since the Lebanon War over a decade ago it has become apparent that urbanites don’t want to fight in wars. There is the added bonus that if a lot of these guys die fighting in the next war, it will make assimilation much quicker and complete.

The majority of Israelis nowadays are either former Soviet emigrants, descendants of those expelled from the Arab World in 1967, or orthodox. In contrast to the remnants of the Labour-supporting Ashkenazim that read and write for shops like Haaretz, these groups view Israel as an explicitly Jewish nation-state, much like Egypt and Saudi Arabia are Arab nation-states.

    Combine that with the transition to a privatized economy in the 1980s, and you’ve got the recipe for Likud’s political success.

  159. OT, but I wonder what Bibi’s attitude on the Iranian protests are. I personally think that it is highly unlikely that any realistic Iranian regime is going to give up the bomb program, even if they intend to opt for nuclear latency or ambiguity even more than the mullahs. The Shah had one in the 1970s and it was only slowed down by the fact that the mullahs were stupid enough to purge the country’s scientific sector in the 1980s Islamic version of the Cultural Revolution. (Which is part of why you see a lot of Iranian-Americans in high-horsepower scientific professions.) While it’d obviously be preferable for them for a non-Islamist government to have a bomb than an Islamist one, that would still upset Israel’s nuclear monopoly, not to mention how their de facto allies in Riyadh would react.

    Jewish Agency Deputy Chairman David Breakstone warned: “I suspect our enemies will latch onto this to call us racists, and Kimani will become the poster boy for the BDS [Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions] movement and for those who call Israel an apartheid state.”

    There is no “unsolved” Palestinian problem. There is only a refugee problem. One group is comprised of Arabs who are having a lot of children; with the intent of flooding the country with unemployable youth. The other group is blacks; who are very dangerous and equally unemployable.

    Israel is a Jewish, Semitic country; just as America is a white Christian country. To allow anything less is to give the Muslims and Blacks free reign to destroy Western civilization. Both refugee groups should be expelled from America and Israel.

    Got to give Netanyahu credit where it is due. He takes no guff here. And I might add that Israel has set up a partnership with the Visegrad nations on the finer points of "border security", so whatever you think of Bibi, he's not being a hypocrite on this issue.

    >I thought, though, that Judaism had a pretty good method for discouraging all but the most pious adult male converts?

    I once heard that if you want to convert to Orthodox Judaism from another religion, the rabbi will pretty much list off the reasons for you *not* to convert and tell you how bad it is. The idea is, if you were meant to convert, you wouldn't care and wouldn't be convinced by anybody.

    The stated requirement is three attempted verbal dissuasions. You can imagine how sincerity and persistence can … vary.

  162. They can’t do that, though. Because it might challenge their hegemony in the USA, without which–no Israel. Hence they see open borders as an existential issue for the USA as well as for Israel, only in opposite ways. A United States where Euro-Americans stood a chance at regaining control is a United States which might one day apply the same standards to everyone, and this is absolute anathema to Tribalists.

    Jews are pretty good at existentializing their circumstances to up the stakes and rally the troops. Part of their general love of high-risk strategies that frequently blow up in their faces.

    The racial stock of Jews in Israel is already highly mixed,

    No it isn’t. It’s like 95%+ Levantine. That’s monochromatic mayo on white bread, as far as diaspora Jews are concerned, who do not accept a room with a Greek, a Russian, a German, and an Irishman as diverse enough to be Diverse. Sauce, meet gander.

    As for the rest of your comment, I think we’ve seen how the GoI feels about your plan; since they’re deporting their blacks, it’s probably a non-starter.

    Oh I wish. After all we’ve done for the bastards. They’re already seeking ways to cozy up to the Han, which would be hilarious to get to watch because they’re actually very similar and so their normal trickery won’t work.

    Han: you take 1m Han immigrant! We vet them for 120+ IQ; you confirm with IQ test. They transform your society for better, run country and institutions much better than you. Work harder, too. We even pay to build their housing and infrastructure.

    Jews: we know, we know; they’re just looking for a better life.

    I’ve actually run across quite a few former South African Jews in Chicago. One of them told that virtually everyone in his Jewish high school class in Joburg had emigrated to Israel, the UK, America, and Australia.

    One reason not to break out the fiddle for Jews having to leave a country is that they don’t, unless they’re setting out a tin cup.

Do they hate Israel because at least some Israeli Jews are actual Jews who follow the Jewish religion? Do they think Israeli Jews are Nazis? Do they think American Jews are the only real Jews? Is it Ashkenazi prejudice against non-Ashkenazi Jews?

    Replies: @biz, @silviosilver

    This is a great question and I applaud you for asking it.

    The movement of (many) liberal American Jews away from a pro-Israel stance has myriad interacting causes, but the most important one is that their political liberal identity is more central to them than their Jewish identity. There was a long time when mainstream American liberalism was very pro-Israel, basically from the founding of Israel at least through the 90s, in fact it was more pro-Israel than mainstream conservatism for most of that time. So there was no conflict between liberalism and pro-Israelism for a long time in America, and liberal Jews could have their cake and eat to too so to speak, without even thinking about it too much.

    However since 2000 and especially accelerating in the past few years mainstream American liberalism has wholeheartedly embraced identity politics, intersectionality, and silly victimhood narratives that had previously been more the domain of the loony far-Left, or given only half-hearted lip service by real politicians. I mean who would have predicted, in say 2004, that actual cop killers would be applauded at the 2016 Democratic convention. Part of that turn toward identity politics of course means adopting the far-Left’s position on Israel. When facing a conflict between their liberalism and their Jewish identity, clearly most liberal Jews have chosen their liberalism. That shows just how intensely tribal American politics is now. At least when it comes to the chattering classes of America, their political tribe means more to people than their actual tribe!

    —–

    For what it’s worth, I do predict somewhat of a turn-around in this in the near future though. For one thing, the identity politics insanity is getting to be too much even for some well-indoctrinated people. Right now they are chuckling about niqabs being called “feminist” and the Berkeley elementary schools having Black Panther Day. But underneath those laughs is unease that just maybe things are going off the rails and should be dialed back – but they won’t be dialed back. The other thing is that as Steve has pointed out, the identity politics coalition is not that stable. Many Jews will increasingly get the message that they are not particularly well liked by some elements of that coalition. For example in their mosque sermons, Muslim Imams don’t celebrate the Khybar battle where Muhammad’s army defeated the Israelis, they celebrate the Khybar battle where Muhammad’s army defeated the Jews. Also the weird increasing convergence between the far Left and the far Right on Israel and Jews can serve as a bridge out of leftist politics. It is difficult for a good liberal these days to force themselves to be on the opposite side than Linda Sarsour, but easy to force themselves to be on the opposite side than David Duke.

    It does seem that the position of a designated victim group in the victim hierarchy can and does change and the fetish for intersectionality is a recipe for chaos. And a recipe for some very nasty in-fighting. With so many sub-groups the difficulty is that none are sure exactly where they stand in the victimhood power struggle and they're all trying to jockey for position.

    It could get badly out of control and we could see a lot of denunciations and counter-denunciations. It could make the Cultural Revolution look like a Sunday School picnic. And there's no Chairman Mao to restore order.

    Most people have no idea, even the ones that understand that keeping the population reasonable wrt the area of good land is a good idea,
     
    Most don't realize our nation is fully settled. Or that we don't have the factory jobs of 100 years ago and that automation is going to reduce more jobs in the future.

    Here's a statistic people should know. In 1940 we had around 140 million people. That allowed us to have around 12 million serve in WW2 and work our factories that churned out uncountable numbers of planes, tanks, ships and munitions. Today our population is over 325 million and climbing. We are number 3 only behind China and India. If we still had our 1940 population numbers, we'd still rank around number 10, trailing only China, India and a who's who list of winners like Pakistan and Bangladesh.

    Without the 1965 act, our population would probably be around 260 million today which would mean we'd still be in third place.

I mean who would have predicted, in say 2004, that actual cop killers would be applauded at the 2016 Democratic convention. Part of that turn toward identity politics of course means adopting the far-Left's position on Israel. When facing a conflict between their liberalism and their Jewish identity, clearly most liberal Jews have chosen their liberalism. That shows just how intensely tribal American politics is now. At least when it comes to the chattering classes of America, their political tribe means more to people than their actual tribe!

    For what it's worth, I do predict somewhat of a turn-around in this in the near future though. For one thing, the identity politics insanity is getting to be too much even for some well-indoctrinated people. Right now they are chuckling about niqabs being called "feminist" and the Berkeley elementary schools having Black Panther Day. But underneath those laughs is unease that just maybe things are going off the rails and should be dialed back - but they won't be dialed back. The other thing is that as Steve has pointed out, the identity politics coalition is not that stable. Many Jews will increasingly get the message that they are not particularly well liked by some elements of that coalition. For example in their mosque sermons, Muslim Imams don't celebrate the Khybar battle where Muhammad's army defeated the Israelis, they celebrate the Khybar battle where Muhammad's army defeated the Jews. Also the weird increasing convergence between the far Left and the far Right on Israel and Jews can serve as a bridge out of leftist politics. It is difficult for a good liberal these days to force themselves to be on the opposite side than Linda Sarsour, but easy to force themselves to be on the opposite side than David Duke.

    Not all Jewish liberals resolve the double standard by starting to oppose Israel though. Some just drop the pretense and go full Jewish nationalist. The paradigmatic example here is Alan Dershowitz. There is a youtube of debate between him and Meir Kahane from the mid-80s where Dershowitz is being the good little liberal. Fast-forward thirty years, though, and Dershowitz sounds no different to a diehard Likudnik.

    Svigor,

    You make a good point. All of the orthodox exemption rules should be ended. These people should work and serve in the Army just like everyone else. But the fact remains that the population of Gaza has gone from 2 million to 4 million in just twenty years. There will be starvation there eventually.

    But population growth issues aside, there is a deeper problem; the Islamization of the West, including Israel. Islam is fundamentally incompatible with Western Culture. You can talk about the "melting pot" all you want, but in the end, all of the Muslims and blacks will have to be expelled from Western Europe. This will lead to war; with America, England, Germany and France on one side, and Turkey, Egypt, and Africa on the other.

    Mass deportations are the only long-term solution, and it won't be nice when it happens.

    The people who live in Gaza are not refugees; they are sworn enemies of Israel. In fact, population growth in the Arab world is a huge problem, which cannot be solved by letting them come to the West. The Muslims, including those in Gaza, will have to go back where they came from. Mainly Jordan, Egypt, and Lebanon. To clarify this point, consider that there is not one single functioning democracy among all of the Arab nations. When Arabs host international sporting events, they will not allow the Israeli national anthem to be played. Thank God that President Trump plans to end all aid to Gaza and Pakistan.

    Palestine is and has forever been defined as the land between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean
     
    Nope. The British Mandate of Palestine from the League of National after WW1 included what is now Jordan. The Brits broke off the Transjordanian piece in the 1920s and gave it to the Heshemite clan as their own fiefdom. Your second map there is of the UN Partition Plan from 1947, thus after this, so of course it doesn't reflect Transjordan having actually been part of Palestine.

For the period from 1947-1967 it meant only what is now Israel - the original PLO charter explicitly denied that what we now call the West Bank was part of "Palestine." I'll bet you didn't even know that, because you are so seeped in knee-jerk idiotic anti-Israel propaganda. Then after 1967 the definition was changed again to include the West Bank and Gaza.

    This is a great question and I applaud you for asking it.

    The movement of (many) liberal American Jews away from a pro-Israel stance has myriad interacting causes, but the most important one is that their political liberal identity is more central to them than their Jewish identity. There was a long time when mainstream American liberalism was very pro-Israel, basically from the founding of Israel at least through the 90s, in fact it was more pro-Israel than mainstream conservatism for most of that time. So there was no conflict between liberalism and pro-Israelism for a long time in America, and liberal Jews could have their cake and eat to too so to speak, without even thinking about it too much.

    However since 2000 and especially accelerating in the past few years mainstream American liberalism has wholeheartedly embraced identity politics, intersectionality, and silly victimhood narratives that had previously been more the domain of the loony far-Left, or given only half-hearted lip service by real politicians.

    It does seem that the position of a designated victim group in the victim hierarchy can and does change and the fetish for intersectionality is a recipe for chaos. And a recipe for some very nasty in-fighting. With so many sub-groups the difficulty is that none are sure exactly where they stand in the victimhood power struggle and they’re all trying to jockey for position.

    It could get badly out of control and we could see a lot of denunciations and counter-denunciations. It could make the Cultural Revolution look like a Sunday School picnic. And there’s no Chairman Mao to restore order.

    Good point IJ.

    I'd still say--though i don't have a survey that asks both questions and my personal dataset is much more limited than yours--that the median US Jew is supportive of Israel as an ethno-nationalist state, but supportive of open or at least "openish" immigration to the US.

    But i certainly agree that the trend is toward leftist Jews in the diaspora being full on loons across the board.

    My perception is that this "diversity" thing is like a mind virus or a cancer. Once you start spouting "diversity!" thoughts--even just to propagandize against/denounce bad thinkers--it starts colonizing more and more of your brain. Once infected, people become less and less capable of doing simple basic rational thought on all matters "diverse". I've seen this not just with lefties but with nominally normal centrist church going Lutherans in my own family. It's scary stuff.

    I still think you’re too hard on us. Take an average person (of any religion) with some vague liberal instincts, put him on an all-MSM diet, and you’ll get a supporter of “openish” borders (and much other nonsense too). Hell, I consider myself a natural skeptic and contrarian, but if our government had somehow prevented dissident right web sites from ever taking root, I’d probably believe today that Salvadoran “refugees” are mostly nice kids who “fled violence”, and that Somalis are rapidly assimilating to Minnesota Lutheran niceness.

  192. I made thousands of tweets criticizing Zionism in “mainstream” threads (Big Media tweets, Big Media personality tweets, etc.). Mostly I got chirping crickets. The vast majority of the exceptions were from Zionists condemning something I said. I can’t recall any leftists agreeing with me, or reframing my right-wing criticism in a way that comported with left-wing sensibility, or anything like that. All of the agreement and “likes” came from alt-righters (one or two of them Jewish apostates).

    Most Jews in Europe were created this way...by splitting from Christianity. That is why wherever there are Christians, there are Jews.

(The personality profile is quite different to the stereotype of African Americans, who are portrayed – according to stereotypes – as extroverted).

    There is also African American Christian community living in Dimona in Israel. It’s kind of cult-group that has created their own Kibbutz. They have US citizenship and keep their American culture, but they serve in the Israeli army and are considered quite popular (a kind of tourist attraction).

    As for rest, there's not comparison with the current situation of African Americans, who have been soaked in American life for centuries. This [Ethiopian] is a group has largely arrived only in 1990s, mainly from undeveloped rural areas of Ethiopia - in other words, they were taken straight from a Bronze Age society to a post-industrialize society. The older generation from rural areas spent half their life in the Bronze age and half of it in the post-industrial age.

    The unflattering comparison people like to make is to post-Soviet ('Kolbasnaya Aliyah') immigration of the 1990s, who arrived in a similar situation of poverty, but who rapidly joins the middle class or lower middle class (and within their ranks, account for most of the country's best scientists). But comparison is entirely unfair, as this group immigrated from what was the world's most modern culture (pre-collapse USSR) to a less developed and more primitive culture (Israel), effectively going through cultural reverse situation of the Ethiopian immigration.

    An over-simplification, my friend. Ask any Russian in Israel. And there's plenty of those.

    If the "weight of the evidence" is that you want to immigrate to Israel for non-economic reasons, then almopst always you will at least be allowed to have multiple renewals of a Temporary Residency.

    After that, just marry a local-yokal, or put your existing kid into a local Public school. And maintain a clean police record.

    Example: almost none of the Filipino over-stayers actually get deported, or even hassled. And there's plenty of those.

    It is not like converting to be a Catholic or a Lutheran or even a Mormon. It is not a universal religion, but an ethnic group.

    I get females--like Ivanka, though i'd be strongly against my daughters doing it--they are delivering themselves (body and soul) to their husband and becoming one of his people. Women do surrender themselves--it's inherent in the act. If you're letting a man plant his seed in you--you're his, part of his people.

    But a guy converting? You're just selling out your birthright as a white man. And for what? Saying a bunch of mumbo jumbo does not change your lineage and make you a Jew. This guy should just cut his balls off.
