Alan Dershowitz is a confused old man, an attention whore, and a dishonest hate monger who kisses Trump's behind. But you knew all that.
Someone I thought of as a "friend" sent me the article, below. It is full of lies and hatred.
I reminded this "friend" that Christians are the most persecuted religious group in the world today, and that spreading hate and lies like this is used to justify that persecution.
I have a lot going on in my personal life so I don't have time to go through this lousy piece of blood libel point by point, but maybe someone will want to address this in the comments section. Fact based, hate free comments only. Resisting the hatred of some not all Jews for Christians DOES NOT justify responding with antisemitism.
And, no, I do not support any identification of Jesus with Muslim Arabs. Jesus was a JEW. No debate. It's the rest of the Dershowitz piece, full of hate mongering lies, that is vile.
PS: I'm dealing with life/death health issues and I have been doing so since a medical emergency in early November. It's been two months of fear, sadness, what work can I get done before I die, including work on Bieganski, looking at the will, the card donating my body to medical research, and endless medical appointments and big medical bills.
A social media friend, someone I liked and trusted, someone I'd known for ten previous years, in the midst of all this, a person who had previously said that she "loved" me, called me "vile" "pathetic" and a supporter of terrorism because I supported Kalama Harris in the 2024 presidential election, and was very opposed to Trump.
And then the piece below comes in my mailbox the very day I had surgery.
These two communications epitomize disregard for the humanity of the person to whom one is speaking. In both cases, my interlocutor was a Jewish person who saw me, in the moment, only as a -- what -- non-Jew? Enemy? Catholic? Polish Catholic?
Not as a human being they'd been friends with for years, a supporter of Israel, someone focused on life/death issues.
Just a person to bash.
No, this is not how all Jews behave. No, this is not a comment on a religion or an ethnicity. It's a comment on my own personal experience in the past months, an experience that happened more than once, with others as well.
People resorting to tribalism and forgetting humanity. People of all stripes do it. To the extent that Jews do it, I hope some will choose to examine this behavior and address it.
and to Jewish friends who did not take this route, thank you.
