For some of you who may be puzzled by that “AssaJew” combo: you may have noticed that many a “Jewish anti-Zionist” has this incurable habit of starting her/his anti-Israeli harangue by a sentence along the general line of “Being a Jew myself…” or “As a Jew, I protest…”. The latter gave an easy and natural birth to AssaJew.
For some reason the morons believe that the purely coincidental fact of a Jewish egg serving as a carrier for the future peculiar anti-Zionist being gives them some added authority in Israel – related matters. You just cannot disabuse them of that stupid notion.
One of the more rabid and vile carriers of AssaJew rank, Amy Goodman, and her lair, the perfectly putrid Democracy Now, are bashed here. Enjoy.

Nothing strange here. Marxism and its developments and variants have always rejected nationalism as unprogressive and a mask for the real primacy of economics. This, of course, refers only to certain forms of nationalism; Palestinian nationalism, for example, is very progressive.
But of all the reactionary and regressive nationalisms, from Marx’s early writings on Jewish nationalism has been identified as the most reactionary. If you have been born Jewish, what better way to demonstrate your progressive credentials than by leading the fight against Zionism?
And if you read Rachelg’s blog…good grief, sympathy for Ba’hai’s? Who the hell cares about them? Besides, since they’re being oppressed by a regime that is objectively progressive, even though it reeks of medieval regressiveness, “who cares?” doubled.
