In Europe and America, antisemitism and “Islamophobia” are on the rise, and the same media identifying this disturbing trend are also the ones behind the rise, with leftist ideologies pushing the world towards greater and greater hatred against their neighbors rather than the ones, the elites who own or control these media outlets, who caused it in the first place.
The Israel-Hamas war has produced hateful screeds against the nation of Israel by the far-left factions that control global mass media, with the DNC-CCP being the most powerful and most offensive among those factions. The result is the rise of antisemitism across the board, and with it also a rise of “Islamophobia,” something that doesn’t actually exist, as phobia implies irrational fear, but there are real rational reasons to fear the spreading and establishing of many (but not all) forms of Islam.
An article by the Guardian about the rise in Antisemitism is quick to also point out a rise in “Islamophobia” almost as a whataboutism or a “no, you too” counter to what publications like the Guardian have directly contributed to, a portrayal of the Israeli nation in the worst light, giving full credence to the propaganda of Hamas whenever it makes Israel look like Nazis.
From the Guardian:
The war that has followed the terrorist attacks by Hamas in Israel on 7 October has led to an unprecedented increase in antisemitic incidents. High numbers of civilian casualties caused by Israel’s response have raised tensions further.
Recent figures compiled by the US-based Anti-Defamation League (ADL) revealed a 300% rise in Austria. In the UK, London police said 218 antisemitic hate crimes had been reported from 1-18 October, more than 13 times more than the same period last year.
In Germany, the antisemitism monitoring organisation RIAS reported a 240% increase in antisemitic incidents since 7 October, a total the country’s antisemitism commissioner warned risked transporting the country back to its “most horrific times”.
Even as they cite these alarming figures, they have to add “[Michael O’Flaherty, the director of the EU’s agency for fundamental rights] added that it was ‘also important at this time to be vigilant and condemn all forms of hatred that manifest themselves in Europe, including hatred against Muslims’.”
Take away the loaded term “Islamophobia” and use the term anti-Islamic and this writer is onboard with calling out the actual bigotry now being directed against Muslims and anyone people associate with Islam. The demonization of what Hamas and Israel represent is happening across the board in most societies around the world, and the mass media is mostly to blame.
Whenever they push hateful lies and over-the-top demonizations against the Jews, as they often do (including the Guardian), they create hatred for both sides, with those predisposed to hate Jews finding more “validity,” more social acceptance for being out and open with their hatred (and to do something about it), and those predisposed to hate Muslims and anyone that looks like they might be Muslim (because we in the West think Arab and Muslim, Semite and Muslim, are the same things) being emboldened through anger to openly express their hatred of Muslims.
In America, we have on one side groups of people celebrating the market assassination of people who support Hamas and/or the Palestinian people, and on the other side we have college students hunting down Jews to physically assault. This writer supports no side as far actual bigotry is concerned as it undermines the American standard that individuals have a fundamental right to be stewards of their own beliefs, their own pursuit of and definition of happiness, even if they’re “wrong.”
The far-left faction in this country in particular is the fundamental driver of hate in an effort to divide and conquer the American people, a people that includes Jews, Muslims, Christians, Arabs, Atheists, Europeans, etc., a nation whose diverse reality makes it particularly vulnerable to bigotry as no one group anymore can dominate the rest. We will all stand together or fall together and, I’m afraid, the far left pushing this hate wants just that, for America to fall.
The rise in bigotry is a direct threat to our republic and to the stability of any nation comprised of diverse peoples such as we are, and that destabilization is just what the planners of the new world order seek, to drive us to seek protection at the cost of liberty from the same people that caused the instability in the first place.
