I’ve been following the ‘debate’ about the Swedish blood libel scandal on Kos... and a few other places.
What I’ve been amazed at is how few actually got what this is about. The comments were like: Much ado over nothing... Tempest in a tea pot... Intimidation... censorship... A Lukud ruse... Does it deserve a full-blown diplomatic spat? It’s only a tabloid... A stupid little article... It’s partially owned by Jews.
This is @##* Blood Libel at it worst! How could it be worse? Makes the blood libels of old look like small town tittle-tattle.
It’s based on the vilest of Palestinian propaganda that’s been going around for years. Israel Defense Forces murdering young Palestinians to harvest their organs for the illegal market! As if this is even physically possible! Does it help to debunk these lies? Not much...
It’s just not what the public hears. What happens is that they put two and two together and get a four letter word: Jews
This is how the moron masses interpret it: "So dey kill da Palestinian children to get der orgens, din they sell it in da States for da big money...and you say da rabeyes is in on it too? Dats real cold! Dem jews! "
So you think I'm going a little over board? Well... what’s outrageous is that Anti-Semitism has become hot in Scandinavia. That’s right it's cool! Anti-Israel has become de rigueur and anti-Semitism has become hip!

This is Norwegian comedian Otto Jespersen on the country's largest commercial TV station last Christmas.
gave a "satiric" monologue of mixed anti-Semitic and anti-Israeli remarks. He concluded by wishing the Jews a happy Christmas. But then as an afterthought, he said this was not proper as the Jews had murdered Jesus.
It's like a Christmas card from Imus to Gibson... Jespersen's employers defended his right to make the jokes!
If you think that’s unbelievable, this is unimaginable. A week earlier Jespersen said this:
"I would like to take the opportunity to remember all the billions of fleas and lice that lost their lives in German gas chambers, without having done anything wrong other than settling on persons of Jewish background."
the director of the station defended this expression of "satire."
