Bret Stephens' great Service to Humanity

There is no doubt that the Jews have been the source of horrendous calamities on this planet for a very long time. Thus, to determine what gives them the ability to generate so much pain and suffering has become the number one preoccupation of those who look into these matters.

A great deal has been discovered and uncovered in this regard. But the one thing that remained mysterious up to now has been the way that these people were able to persuade officials at the highest level of government in the jurisdictions they infiltrated, to betray their own people so as to serve the Jews. Well, Bret Stephens has laid out the blueprint by which future historians will be guided to make definitive judgments on how and why planet Earth was so badly afflicted.

Stephens wrote “The Anti-Israel Money Trail,” a column that also came under the subtitle: “Pro-Palestinian campus activists have some 'very smelly' financial supporters.” It was published on April 26, 2016 in the Wall Street Journal.

Talking about an exchange that involved a member of the Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), Stephens says it “is another reminder of the anti-Israel, and increasingly anti-Semitic, environment students now experience on American campuses.” Linking the notion of opposition to Israeli policies with the notion of anti-Semitism by calling the opposition “anti” Israel is an old trick he is reviving. This approach comes around in cycles in that it is abandoned when Israel is doing well, and revived when Israel is doing badly.

But the notion of anti-Semitism no longer has the bite that used to galvanize people in the media and the political circles. Now, the bite is felt with the mention of – get this now – terrorism. And this is why Bret Stephens went on to pave the way for linking opposition to Israeli policies to terrorism. Here is how he began to do it: “That's the doing of several groups. None is so prominent as SJP … sponsor[ing[ anti-Israeli events, heckling pro-Israel speakers and agitating for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) resolutions on campus”.

Because no one in his right mind would see something wrong with that, the author has relied on the Jewish trick of using the students' own words, and make them sound like a terrible thing. Here it is: “SJP's self-declared goal is to end Israel's occupation and colonization of all Arab lands while promoting the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes”.

But who on earth except a bloodthirsty savage human-looking animal would object to that? Oh, there are some who are perfectly justified to object to that, says Stephens. And he explains why. It is because: “that's another way of saying destroying the Jewish state,” he says.

Well, it must be that he does not have the IQ to realize he just said that Israel's existence depends on occupation and colonization of other people's lands, as well as the denial of the rights of refugees to return to their homes. Go tell that to the refugees from Syria, Bret Stephens.

But if he does not have the IQ, he had the instinct that allowed him to sense there was something wrong with his presentation up to now. And this is why he handed the whole thing over to Jonathan Schanzer, one of the comics at the troop calling itself, Foundation for Defense of Democracies.

This guy Schanzer fancies himself as an expert on terrorism-financing. He volunteered to testify before the congress on what he knows regarding the link between the activities of college students in America and what he says is terrorism. After going on a long descriptive tour during which he laid-out a web of relationships that would raise your hair, he mentioned that the FDD had seen no evidence of illicit activities in any of that.

So you ask: What was the brouhaha all about to begin with? And Bret Stephens provides the answer. He says this: Everyone has rights, including to assembly and speech … still it is worth thinking about the politics that these people support.

That is, if Jews have it their way, your politics will determine whether or not you are a terrorist. This is the kind of noise that affects the feeble minded officials at the highest level of government. And this is why some turn against their own people to serve the Jews. Future historians will be pleased to know.
