non-sequitor
Here’s what it says. Not a word here about the Zionist movement funding Hitler. And certainly all such cooperation came to an end by 1939.

In one instance only were the economic conditions
of emigration somewhat facilitated. Not only did
the regime encourage Zionist activities on the
territory of the Reich, but concrete economic
measures were taken to ease the departure of Jews
for Palestine. The so-called Haavarah (Hebrew:
Transfer) Agreement, concluded on August 27, 1933,
between the German Ministry of the Economy and
Zionist representatives from Germany and Palestine,
allowed Jewish emigrants indirect transfer of part
of their assets and facilitated exports of goods
from Nazi Germany to Palestine. As a result, some
one hundred milliReichsmarks were transferred to
Palestine, and most of the sixty thousand German
Jews who arrived in that country during 1933-1939
could thereby ensure a minimal basis for their material existence.

How about the fact that he’s a Jew-hating wack job?
Just asking.

Rubbish: a very good example
And you obviously can’t write, because you don’t even know how to spell simple words like “none” or “will,” much less make any substantive argument. This post is being presented as an example of the kind of “rubbish” which will no longer be tolerated on this website. If you don’t like it: too bad. Get your own damn blog, and diss us to your heart’s content. We have no responisibility to serve as a forum for such semi-literate bovine excrement.

Thus it is argued…
in the British Marxist journal Workers Liberty. Here’s one depressing tidbit:

There were a number of allegations from the King campaign about anti-semitism, including Respect canvassers urging Bengalis not to vote for King because she was Jewish. Oona King cites a case of young people shouting “Jewish bitch, get out of here.” Galloway/Respect claim fabrication, but there was undoubtedly one well-established and reported case during the campaign, the commemoration of the largely Jewish victims of the last German V2 raid on World War 2. Some Bengali youths threw objects and shouted anti-semitic abuse at those commemorating the dead. Respect’s response to this event was a shameful silence.

In similar vein Galloway/Respect argue that Oona King’s Jewish background was not an issue when she was elected in 1997 and 2001, and therefore could not have been an issue in 2005 – or, contradicting themselves, if it was, it was because she had first raised it! People voted against her in this election, they say, not because she was Jewish, but because she was a New Labour “stooge”, a “warmonger”, etc. They could, of course, have combined both motives: the fact of anti-Blairism does not mean that anti-semitism played no role in this election.

There were new elements in 2005, including the existence of Respect itself, running an aggressive, populist communal campaign, and refusing to come out clearly and sharply against anti-semitism.

On the issue of anti-black racism, it is common coin on the left that seeking to ignore its existence, and refusing to come out clearly against it, amounts to complicity. It is a sign of terrible political decay when people who call themselves socialists do not apply the same argument to anti-semitism.
