David Aaronovitch Annihilates the Bugger Boys

So it is interesting to me to see that many of those involved in the boycott campaign use “Zionist” as a term of abuse, not analysis. For example, Mr Mark Elf, a heroic correspondent to the letters page of this and any other journals, describes Tony Blair as a Zionist almost entirely because he doesn’t like the PM.
He tells another critical correspondent on his Jews Sans Frontieres blog “not to lie or evade, I know that as a Zionist you find thus difficult to impossible…”. Used in this way, Zionist is just another word for bad, like the apartheid regime in South Africa was bad, or fascists are bad. It is a word to be applied to people whether they believe themselves to be Zionists or not.
As deployed by some agency entirely external to the Jewish communities — an Egyptian newspaper, say, or an Iranian TV channel — such a demonology is to be regretted but can at least be understood as an attitude towards the “other”.
But when it is used in this way by people who go to such lengths as Mr Elf or his ubiquitous comrade, Mr Tony Greenstein, constantly and at every opportunity to stress their Jewish origins, something else would seem to be going on. Ah yes, say some readers, we are way ahead of you. Mr Elf and Mr Greenstein are archetypal “self-haters”. They are typical Jews who hate Jews (an organisation, come to think of it, which would complete the long, self-indulgent list of Jews For or Against This or That). They wish somehow to lose their unwanted Jewishness by currying favour with the goyische welt. They like the Nobel prizes and the comedy, but they don’t want to be associated with the big noses and loud behaviour in Waitrose.
There are Jews who hate Jewishness. In his excellent book about being brought up in a fascist household, Trevor Grundy describes his late discovery that his fiercely antisemitic mother was herself originally Jewish. Bad experiences at the hands of her step-father might have accounted for her pathological rejection of her own people. But the very extremeness of her example indicates why I distrust the “self-hating” diagnosis as much as I distrust the Elfian definition of Zionism. Both are impertinences. “I don’t hate myself,” Mr Elf might say with justice, “I just hate you.”
Trevor Grundy’s mother hid her Jewishness. Jews Against Zionism (or whatever) luxuriate in their superior version of theirs. Indeed, their profession of Jewishness is as excessive as anybody’s on their hate-list, though it seems to exist for the sole purpose of negative deployment. I knew Tony Greenstein many years ago, when he reminded me of John McEnroe in a kefiyeh.
The boycotters, and especially the Jews for Boycotts, are not self-hating Jews — they’re adolescents. It isn’t themselves they hate, but Daddy and Mummy. In fact, they’re so vain they probably think this piece is about them.

Roland's Guru GreenStalin steps in his own doodoo
Well, in one of the funniest web incidents in recent days, Tony Greenstein waxes on about how communism has absolutely nothing in common with nazism, nothing at all. Then Tony GreenSoprano, renowned for his penchant for using the credit cards of The Other, also insists - indeed swears to Marx - that he had never compared Zionists to nazis.
And moments later "Mikey" threw a cyber-pie in GreenSoprano's puss! Here it is:

Tony Greenstein cannot remember what he says one week to the next. Tony Greenstein March 25 2007 - see above " I have never said that Zionism is 'like' Nazism. " Tony Greenstein March 16 2007 - comment to Alef list http://list.haifa.ac.il/mailman/private/alef/2007-March/010465.html (via subscription) Fri Mar 16 20:13:44 IST 2007 ....Zionism shares many facets with Nazism - see the tribute to Ilan Papper from some illiterate jerk who exclaims that Haifa will smell nicer after he is gone. A good example of the Judaeo-Nazi mind that seeks to cast out any intellectual who goes against the national myth. You simply wouldn't get such a reaction to a radical professor in Britain but maybe that's because the mores of civilisation has yet to percolate throughout most of Israeli academia. Zionism's state worship is another similarity with Naziis - e.g. the obsession with recognising the right of the Israeli state to exist etc. Tony Greenstein

Atzmon and Rance in Rodent Fight

Seems that Roland is upset because Gilad Atzmon keeps up-staging him at all those leftist Nuremberg rallies demanding that all the Jews be killed. Rance and friends have essentially the exact same political agenda as the Neo-Nazi Atzmon but are jealous because Atzmon is getting all the press and also plays the sax, where as Roland only plays his little thing with that single hole.
Here is Harry's Place:
"In his own way, Atzmon called the far Left on this tactic. Just as Atzmon's associate slammed the British National Party for being run by "jewish overseers", Atzmon denounced what he called the "jewish gatekeepers", who sought to police the boundaries of acceptable politics within the Palestinian solidarity movement. The far Left jewish activists, Roland Rance, Tony Greenstein, and Mark Elf, and indeed anybody in the anti-Zionist camp who identified as jewish naturally became the particular targets of Atzmon's accusations. ...
"This weekend, Tony Greenstein will propose to the Palestine Solidarity Conference that they proscribe Deir Yassin Remembered: an organisation which brings together two Atzmon associates, and fellow racist cranks, "Israel Shamir" and Paul Eisen. ...
"At some point, no doubt, the Socialist Workers' Party will decide that it has to cut its links with Gilad Atzmon."
Of course, Stalinists like the Bugger Boys are little better than Atzmon.
