Criticising antisemitism is now racist, in Germany
In Germany, any kind of antisemitism is illegal and will be prosecuted. Unless you are black or Muslim, in which case hating Jews is apparently a-ok. This is how the issue with an extremist, antisemitic Muslim is introduced by the far-left Berliner Zeitung:
"Following a racist campaign by the Springer press, WDR annulled their contract with science journalist Nemi El-Hassan"
Ah, if you complain about antisemitism stemming from a Muslim, it's "racist" 😒
One cannot even explain that hatred of Jews is an integral part of Islam without getting labled "Islamophobe", although that's simply not up for debate - it's a fact:
https://www.minds.com/SMetzeler/blog/antisemitism-in-the-quran-1241736360498892800
This vile fanatical supporter of Islamic terrorism and antisemitism, Nemi El-Hassan, participated in an anti-Israel demonstration where hatred against Jews was freely expressed on signs and in chants. This is her - hijabi, pro-terrorism:
If these had been Neonazis, the media would have nuked them from orbit. But how do they present it when the antisemitic scum are Muslims?
"Started by the Springer press, it all began when footage „emerged“ of Nemi El-Hassan attending an antizionist protest"
Ah, it's not "antisemitic", it's "antizionist". I've never seen any difference. Every single person I ever found who proclaimed to be "antizionist" just hated Jews, in the end:
"in 2014 known as the „Al-Quds March,“ where antisemitic chants have been reported in recent years."
Note how they are unable to maintain their own lies - the chants were not "antizionist", they had to admit that they were "antisemitic" 🤔
Attacking the whistleblower
"ZEIT Online traced that footage back to a YouTube producer called Irfan Peci, who has ties to the far-right AfD. He proudly took credit for the revelations."
So let me get this straight: Instead of finding the individuals who spread antisemitic hatred in public, they wonder who could possibly have recorded them?
In a typical fallacy attack, they immediately try to smear the author, Peci, by association with the AfD. He has ties with the "far right AfD", so he must be a bad person.
Who is Irfan Peci?
He's a Bosnian Muslim and former supporter of Islamic terrorism, now very active in denouncing Islamic extremism. As former insider, he knows all about their beliefs.
He has his own web site:
https://irfan-peci.de/ueber-mich/
[NB: I got a warning that his web site was "unsafe" because he does not have an SSL certificate; don't worry, it's perfectly safe; just a Wordpress site]
"Irfan Peci, geboren 1989 in Serbien, aufgewachsen in Bayern, schließt sich als Jugendlicher der islamistischen Bewegung an und wird 2007 zum Deutschland-Chef der »Globalen Islamischen Medienfront« (GIMF), ein islamistisches Propaganda-Netzwerk. In Haft findet ein Umdenkprozess statt, von da an arbeitet er verdeckt in der Dschihadistenszene für ein deutschen Inlandsnachrichtendienst. Aufgrund dieser Zusammenarbeit können dutzende Dschihadisten an der Ausreise in Kriegsgebiete gehindert werden, desweiteren wird ein geplanter Terroranschlag im Anfangsstadium verhindert und mehrere Finanzströme verschiedener Terrorgruppen trocken gelegt.
Heute engagiert sich Peci hauptsächlich im Präventions- und Deradikalisierungsbereich, hält bundesweit Vorträge und fungiert als Berater."
To sum it up, he explains that he used to be a Muslim extremist, but is now active in exposing Islamic networks, helps the police in identifying terrorist organizations and tries to de-radicalize young people.
So he's an immigrant and former Muslim who allies with the AfD to prevent Islam from gaining political power in Germany and he denounces antisemitic hatred among Muslism ... and that makes him a horrible racist?
Whitewashing hatred of Jews and Israel
The Berliner Zeitung continues their whitewashing of El-Hassan:
"Actually antisemitic rhetoric and acts shouldn't be tolerated, and attending an event like the Al-Quds-March is no trivial matter. We should, however, allow for the possibility that people change"
Yes, sure, absolutely. That's why they smear anyone who ever associated with the AfD, although there's ZERO evidence that the AfD is "evil" through guilt by association - they have or had members who might be antisemitic or have Nazi sympathies. The AfD actually took steps to kick out anyone who was openly Nazi declared their opposition to any form of antisemitism when the JAfD section was created - Jews in the AfD.
"Juden in der Alternative für Deutschland"
http://www.faz.net/aktuell/rhein-main/region-und-hessen/gruendung-der-jafd-juden-in-der-afd-15800593.html?GEPC=s2
Ah, but that was not good enough, they are still considered as irredeemably evil.
Meanwhile all El-Hassan had to do was to say that she was "reformed" and no longer hated Jews "cross my heart", "pinky promise".
"El-Hassan is an award-winning journalist"
I'm 99.9% sure that she didn't actually do anything award-worthy - it must have been attributed based on her identity as Muslim migrant. Prove me wrong! Show me what she did that was so fabulous.
"Her work is dedicated to fostering intercultural dialogue and fighting antisemitism and racism"
I will believe that if she actually committed public apostasy, i.e. left Islam. If she didn't, then this is all Taqqiya. She cannot actually "fight antisemitism" without saying that the Quran is wrong. As long as she's Muslim, she can't do that. Just as no Muslim can say that slavery is wrong.
Mohammed enslaved people, used, raped and traded slaves. Saying that slavery is evil is equivalent to saying that Mohammed did something immoral. The same goes for antisemitism. To say that it is wrong to hate Jews is equivalent to saying that Mohammed was wrong to hate the Jews.
"She has apologized substantively for her participation in the protest"
Sooo convincing, stemming from someone whose cultish belief system legitimizes lying to any non-cult-member.
Aaand it was Taqqiya
She never believed a word of what she said:
"Just as the media campaign against El-Hassan seemed to be flaming out, BILD started covering El-Hassan's Instagram activities. Apparently, she had liked posts from an Instagram account called „Jewish Voice for Peace,“ belonging to a left-wing organization from the US known for its critical stance on Israel."
"Critical"? Seriously? Jewish Voices for Peace is run by Muslims, with a few token Marxist Jews.
Even Wikipedia admits that they have zero credibility and are clearly extremists:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_Voice_for_Peace
The far-left ADL - which I'm truly no friend of - denounces JVP as antisemitic extremists:
https://www.adl.org/resources/backgrounders/jewish-voice-for-peace
The Berliner Zeitung instead tries to explain what a great organization JVP is, because:
"Members on its advisory board include the playwright Tony Kushner, the writers Sarah Schulman, activist Naomi Klein, and linugist Noam Chomsky."
Chomsky is the psychopath who praised the Khmer Rouges 10 years after the Killing Fields were discovered. It was already well known, by that time, that they had massacred more than 3 million Cambodians. Sure, having him on the board of JVP makes them instant humanitarians 🙄
So Nemi El-Hassan liked JVP content, last November. She still hates Jews and Israel. She never changed.
"El-Hassan has expressed her „deep sadness“ about being removed from her presenter role. She feels that some people are allowed to make more mistakes than others."
She chanted antisemitic songs, she expressed the wish for Israel to be destroyed and she still has celebrities and the media supporting her - and she's complaining? 😒
"She says she's grateful for the support but also feels that the debate has harmed her reputation."
Having her true nature exposed harmed her reputation, not the debate.
Why should she have the job at all?
The article then continues with a lengthy debate on how unfair it was to exclude her from a job that implies an enormous influence over kids and adolescents with the argument that it was not absolutely guaranteed that she is antisemitic.
Should she be "pardoned" for her past errors? Should her more recent actions be seen as proof for her continued antisemitic, Islamic extremist views or should she be given the benefit of the doubt?
The main question is: why in the world do they talk about her as if she was somehow entitled to holding such a job?
I would assume that there are hundreds of qualified individuals. Why would they try to hire the ONE person who follows an extremist ideology and who has made openly antisemitic statements in the past?
Pardon Antisemitic Muslims, but not for the AfD
Would WDR hire someone who is - or previously has been - a member of the AfD party? Would they even consider it? If not, why not? Would Hanno Hauenstein defend someone who is or has been with the AfD?
My guess: Anyone whith ANY connection with the AfD could not even hope to get an interview.
So apparently, the "pardon" for past errors or the speculation about some implied guilt by association is only suspended for followers of Islam, but not for the German political opposition.
And there it is:
"It's alarming to see the WDR ignore this open letter and instead give in to a pressure campaign created by right-wing spin doctors and the AfD"
Yes, he said it: the mere association of this criticism with the AfD means that it's somehow "dishonest" and should be ignored.
So what, exactly, is so horrible about the AfD?
It has a Jewish section, the JAfD, as mentioned above. It is by far the ethnically most diverse party - it has more former immigrant members than any other German party.
Take Leyla Bilge, a former refugee from Kurdistan who fights against the oppression of women under Sharia law. She was actively helping other refugees, so she used to get praise ... until she joined the AfD. Apparently, that made her a bad person:
http://nrw-direkt.net/leyla-bilge-helferin-und-kritikerin/
Homib Mebrahtu is a former refugee from Eritrea and is now a politician with the AfD. Must be a white supremacist... 🙄
https://alternative-heidelberg.de/tag/homib-mebrahtu/
He explains in this interview with a fellow Eritrean (who is Muslim) that the AfD had a lot of success in his district, where 80% of the population are former immigrants:
Apparently, people such as Homib Mebrahtu are despicable, although he was never racist, is black and from an immigrant family, because he's in the AfD - the only German party that is willing to debate the negative aspects of Islam and Merkel's mass immigration, as well as the massive expansion of government.
According to the journalist Hanno Hauenstein, El-Hassan must be defended, although she is clearly a Muslim extremist and openly antisemitic, but AfD is the enemy who is not even worthy of respect or debate.
