Please sticky this, somebody.
I'm writing this in response to the infamous "subhuman" thread that caused so much controversy at JTF. That was not my term, I did not repeat it, and I don't advocate it being used on the "Kahanist" Knesset member Ben-Ari. However, I'm most certainly not going to defend MBA on this forum in any way, shape, or form. Let me remind you all of Chaim's words on MBA:
http://74.86.238.186/forum/index.php/topic,65140.msg567884.html?PHPSESSID=3dafakb9slt6fcosmba6dv86t6#msg567884You stickied the thread and I unstickied it because we are not promoting Michael Ben Ari and his videos on this forum. After I unstickied it, you stickied it again. So the only way for me to stop the thread from being repeatedly stickied was to remove it.
We have made clear why we are opposing Ben Ari. He is not a Kahanist and not a genuine right-winger. If you want to support someone who says we must accept a nuclear-armed Iran, who condemns the underground fighters of Tag Mechir, who says that Jewish taxpayers should bail out and save the extreme left-wing newspaper Maariv, who blesses the memory of Yitzchak Rabin saying "zichrono livrachi" repeatedly after his name, who shakes hands with extreme left-wing Meretz traitors and blesses them with "shana tova" (good New Year), and who publicly ridicules our videos calling them "insanely laughable" - if all of this doesn't bother you, then support him. But we do not and will not support him.
You yourself told me that Baruch Marzel (the number two candidate on their party list) told you that I can go to Israel any time I want to. In other words, Marzel was claiming that I am not really banned from Israel, that I am making it up. This is just another example of how these people are vicious slanderers and backstabbers. I sent tens of thousands of dollars to help Marzel get elected to the Knesset - yet he repeatedly slandered me for no reason. What type of Jew behaves like this?
(emphasis and underlining mine. In addition to this, there is speculation that Baruch Marzel is a Shabak agent, and
if that is the case, then he really is a Nazi.)
Chaim very clearly lays out his reasons in opposing MBA and his friend Marzel. I think they are more than sufficient to convince everyone here. I am aware that Chaim has said that we must not engage in over-the-top hatred of these individuals, and I respect him and will abide by his wishes on this forum. That being said, I don't agree with even Chaim all of the time. It is my own, personal opinion (not JTF's) that these individuals are more dangerous and more wicked than the open and honest Israeli far left. They are deliberately deceiving and confusing genuine right-wing Jews, particularly youths, who think they are getting the real deal.
In my own opinion, MBA, Marzel, Guzofsky, etc. are a bunch of self-hating Jews who need a mental health evaluation. They are proclaiming to be a part of a movement that they clearly detest and it's all so that they can get the support and adulation of the NWO and its media organs. How are they different from somebody like Nellie the Weasel who sucks up to Obama and Bill Clinton, or Natan Sharansky who sucks up to Pat Nazi Buchanus?
I don't see how any reasonable, rational JTFer would think anything of these individuals besides that they are utter phonies and charlatans, but JTF is a political movement, not a cult that requires all of its members to think like one person.
