Today's Cultural Icon -"The SHJ"

It is actually a misnomer. These people love themselves to bits.
"The self loving Jews" is more accurate. It is a deadly mix of Jewish arrogance combined with a hatred of Western civlization.

I haven't read Jacobson's novel but I really don't think that he has met enough of these Jewish anti-zionists. These people have no self-doubt. What they want is political power; they want to be in charge and they want to tell everyone
what to do. If they can torture and kill some Jewish opponents, so much the better. They are psychotic Jews. Not self-hating Jews.

Jon,
Take a look at this...

I was particularly inspired by Anthony Julius’s long two-part essay published at the American Jewish Committee site, Z Word. The piece was called Jewish anti-Zionism Unravelled: The Morality of Vanity. (Pt. 1 & Pt. 2). Julius also rejects the notion of such Jews as being “self-hating”. Instead he refers to them as moralisers who continually desire affirmation from the non-Jewish world as to their righteousness.

"The moraliser makes judgments on others, and profits by so doing; he puts himself on the right side of the fence. Moralising provides the moraliser with recognition of his own existence and confirmation of his own value. A moraliser has a good conscience and is satisfied by his own self-righteousness . He is not a self-hater; he is enfolded in self-admiration. He is in step with the best opinion."

what are contra semitic activites? Are they financed by Oliver North?

Tony since you arrived on the scene big time I can see my mission to educate the whole of the JC blog readership is gonna take longer than the two weeks I had alloowed

SHJ?

And here I thought I was a Princess.

Steve,
If you would care to communicate in English (with the odd bit of grammmar), I might be able to understand what you are on about. At present, I am flummoxed.

JAP you will always be a princess on the bar top in the Dog and Duck in Bandon West Cork

Steve,

Try English. I know it can be difficult what with all the stuff that you have to get right in order pass IGCSE, but it is worth perservering.

Remember... Michael Heseltine was dyslexic and he nearly got to become PM.

Once you can put a sentence together, the sky's the limit. Avi Reiss aint no intellectual, and you will be able to convince him in no time...

Of course, Hoffman might still pose problems? But "English" is worth a shot and it can be great fun putting sentences together. Look, I just wrote one. Is it really that difficult?

Anthony
Thanks for the link.
Interesting stuff, but I still prefer "SHJ".
Avi Shlaim, Neve Gordon and the CiF contributors Naomi Klein, Richard Silverstein, Antony Lerman, Seth Freedman, Tony Greenstein,and their like.
Their vitriolic anti-Israel pronouncements are self loathing in its basest form, they mistakenly believe that by ingratiating themselves with our enemies in the way they do will make them "accepted", what they fail to realise is that behind their backs they are still sniggered at and pointed at as "those Jews". Very, very sad.

Jon,

It might be semantics, but I really do believe that "self-loving" is a lot more accurate than "self-hating". These guys are also getting massive adoration. So it plays to their enormous egos.

I dfefy you to find one of them who looks down in the dumps.

"This blog is not the place to "name names", but many of you will know who I am referring to."

Jon, well said. Remembering that the child-molester isn't Jewish, we know exactly to whom you refer.

There's nothing new about SHJ's, the innovation is their being exploited by the anti-Israeli groups. And it says something about the SHJ's that collectively they are to dumb to understand this.

I can't help wondering what their stand is on burkas? :-)

Is self hatred just a jewish thing or is there self hating presbytarian settler bastids too? So when where and how did this self hatred enter the jewish psyche and why ?

I ask in all innocence cuz i aint ever met one
