You know, I had thought that one of the advantages of being Jewish is that nobody could accuse me of being a traitor to the so-called Aryan race… but I hadn’t counted on our modern, sensitized, 21st century Nazis being so inclusive:

Subject: RACE TRAITORJEW COMMUNIST SCUM, WE ARE WATCHING YOU!!!!!!!
Confidentiality Notice: The information contained in this e-mail and any attachments is Racially and Religiously privileged and confidential. It is intended for specific Aryan recipients only and Brothers and Sisters of their choosing. If you are a jew, you can only be in possession through deceit, treachery, guile, cunning, dissimulation and chicanery, and such possession of this e-mail is contrary to law. You are hereby notified that any dissemination, distribution or copying of this e-mail is strictly prohibited. If you have received this e-mail through the error of someone else, you must notify the sender and permanently delete this e-mail and any attachments immediately. You should neither retain, nor copy nor use this e-mail or any attachment for any purpose. Disclosure of all or any part of the contents to any other jew is a punishable offense.
The email went on to helpfully include the addresses of several Nazi websites, but out of deference to the confidentiality notice above, I have declined to promote them here. Out of similar respect, I have also redacted the email address of the sender, but I assure you that googling it would uncover additional useful resources on the American Nazi movement… that is, assuming you consider a handful of ridiculous, drably-costumed nutcases protesting ironic statues, to be a “movement.”
I should note that this is far from the first anti-semitic email I have received, nor is it remotely the most offensive… in fact, these “official” Nazis could learn quite a few tricks from the amateurs. But whether you chalk it up to boldness or stupidity, it is the first overt threat I’ve ever received where the sender apparently did not feel the need to maintain total anonymity.
For years, Dave Neiwert over at Orcinus has chronicled the gradual spread of eliminationist rhetoric from the far right-wing fringe into mainstream discourse. But the flip-side to the mainstreaming of their rhetoric, is that these extremists continue to grow ever more extreme. And bolder. And for this, the high-profile, professional antagonists who make their living parroting this violent hate speech (i.e. Ann Coulter) have at least some moral culpability.
Judging from his email address, my pen-pal fancies himself an elite, SS commando — a twisted, if sadly pathetic fantasy — though in the real world, I’m guessing he’s more beer belly than Beer Hall Putsch.
Whatever. Watch me all you want. (Right now I’m doing my one finger version of the Nazi salute.) Just bear in mind, we’re watching you too.

Jews have been reviled for ages by the populist right as a “conspiratorial cabal of international bankers” controlling world history (cf. John Birch Society and many others before them). On the other hand, many of the early socialists (pre Stalin & Mao) were jewish, and the left is often dennounced as a “jewish conspiracy” (cf one A. Hitler).
My question is this: If world history is just the unfolding of a massive jewish conspiracy by rabble rousing communist bankers, how could they have fucked it up so bady for themselves?

BTW, the definition of fascism starts sounding a lot more like the anti-war crowd who would like to see Sadam returned to power, now that we are losing the civil war. He was the embodiment of a dictator who uses nationalism to further his power. Last time I looked, he was on trial, and the Iraq was working its way to a better place.
But don’t let facts get in the way of sliming the right. It really adds credibility to an argument to toss in ad hominem attacks.

“Why is a party that has “sociali$m” in its name considered far right?”
Because the socialism the German national socialists were refering to was the supremacy of the Aryan race, who were to rule all things in Germany, regardless of economic considerations.
the anti-war crowd who would like to see Sadam returned to power
I haven’t heard anyone say that they seriously support the re-instatement of Saddam Hussein. I have heard people say that the region would be more stable and the U. S. better off if he had been left in power while a more rational plan for securing Iraq was thought out. This is the position of foreign policy “realists”. While us peace lovers sometimes agree with the realists, they favor the continuation of the US foreign policy of meddling in the Middle East, which makes the the “enemy of our enemy” kind of friend, at best.
Recently one such person, Rober Baer, who was a CIA case officer operating in the Middle East from 1976 to 1997 expressed this view:
QUESTIONER: We overthrew a country that despite how cruel Saddam Hussein was, he was not one to aggressively foster terrorism within Iraq. And yet you have the Saudis, who are our closest friends and who do finance terrorism, as you point out, to the tune of a billion dollars over the last decade. It seems like everything’s upside down.
BAER: Well, I think it is. I think it’s pretty clear now that Saddam was not supporting bin Laden to any degree that we can establish … So we have created a terrorist state where we didn’t have one before. Are we worse off with the terrorist state in Iraq now, or with Saddam before, who was out of his mind and could attack a country like Saudi Arabia? Who knows what he was going to do next. We’re facing two evils here. I’m frankly more scared of the fundamentalists than I was of Saddam.
Whatever you may think of Baer’s point of view, which Bush 41 and Brent Scrowcroft share with him, they aren’t a part of the “anti-war crowd”.
So, if you are concerned with observing the facts, try doing it yourself.

I’m just trying to figure out what you anti-war folks want to do now. Just saying “get out” isn’t an answer. I figured you all thought things were better with Saddam in power than out, so why not return him? He’ll murder enough people to get things back under control.
There isn’t a civil war happening in Iraq. There is an insurgency, being led by foreigners, and causing lots of pain and agony for Iraqis. The Iraqis want the US to stay until things are stable. And, no, I’m not looking up the references for you. I’m tired of your laziness for not reading something other than this blog and Daily Kos. Get out of the house once in awhile.

Janet S. @ 21 and which Iraqi’s are the ones you say want us to stay? The government puppets?, the Sunni’s? You seem to know so much about insurgency. What do you think would have happened in the 60’s if Cuba or Russia had attacked the US with nuclear weapons? Would the entire 250 million of us have just rolled over and became Communists? We would have been the insurgents in the US trying everything possible to get the ‘predators’ out. Many in Iraq now see the US as predators. Building 13 or 14 PERMANENT military bases! Does that sound like an ‘exit plan’. I would really like to see your comments Janet S. You know, something that might make a little sense.

Cougar in the 60’s that would not have happen in the first place, for one Cuba lack the military might to complete that task. Russia lack the Navy and Air power to invade this country. Today you don’t have to invade this country take over its goverment. Seattle would act like the French,they would walk around all day with their hands up, and shake profusely from fear that someone would hate them. You know like Teddy Kennedy after a hard night out on the town and he can’t find his car. The first thing he does is check all the local morgus for dead wemon, and then calls home.
Janet S spews:
Donna, why can’t you ever launch a coherent argument about anything, rather than invective?
Cougar – I want the Iraqis to win, and become a stable, free society. If that means that the Kurds become autonomous, fine. What the latest violence has shown is that there isn’t the huge divide between Sunnis and Shia that the media likes to play up. Iraq is not a particularly religious state, and so the sectarian stuff doesn’t play as well there. If the economy is moving, and people are gainfully employed, there is less energy to indulge in the insurgency.
The Iraqi police need to establish themselves as a law abiding force, that have the respect of the public. Once that happens, we can leave. It isn’t something that happens over night, but it is happening faster there than expected.
Donnageddon spews:
Janet, I examined your lies in the “Shield Laws” post @ 78

“Why is a party that has “sociali$m” in its name considered far right?”
Because it IS far right, dummy! Nazi ideology had all the following similarities with right wing movements everywhere, including the neocons:
1. Ultra-nationalism
2. Militarism
3. Bullying tactics
4. Uses sedition laws to suppress dissent
5. Supports use of torture, violence, and war
6. Racially exclusive
7. Caters to entrenched private capital
8. Relies on propaganda, lies, fear tactics, smear tactics, and demagoguery to sway public opinion
9. Anti-democratic; rigs or abolishes elections

What makes you think I’m one of the generous donors who paid for his lawsuit?*
* Note that I didn’t call it a silly-ass lawsuit. I have not commented on the merits of Stefan’s lawsuit against King County. Maybe it has merit, maybe not. All I can say is, I worked in government for three decades, and most bureaucrats simply don’t take the public disclosure laws seriously enough, and don’t understand the potential for financial penalties when they don’t.
The attorney general has hired a full-time attorney to work on public disclosure issues, and part of his duties include educating state agencies about the requirements of the law — and the consequences of not complying with them. Most of the state’s largest agencies are taking the PDA seriously, but the message has been slower to get to bureaucrats at county, city, school district, and port district levels. And perhaps the skulls at thicker at the lower levels.
Maybe Dean Logan and KCRE has complied with the law. Clearly, they’ve gone to extraordinary lengths to accomodate him. They’ve given him access to over 600,000 documents, and they assigned a staff member to work full-time on fulfilling his requests for six weeks, plus they gave him use of a room in a public building for several weeks — possibly at the expense of other citizens. In short, KCRE bent over backwards for Stefan. But that may not be good enough. If they were dilatory about providing even ONE public record, that’s all the grounds Stefan needs to sue.
However, awarding attorney fees and monetary penalties is at the judge’s discretion, and if the judge finds KCRE acted in good faith in trying to fulfill Stefan’s requests, it’s unlikely the court will award him any money.

Hayduke spews:
From Wikipedia:
The German Nazis (“National Socialists”) used the word “socialist” in their official name, but most scholars argue that this was done purely for propaganda purposes and that they tended to adopt either a pro-worker or pro-business line depending on the given audience. The Nazis did demand some nationalization of big industries and land reform before their rise to power. However, once in power, they allowed (friendly) capitalists to thrive while liquidating socialists everywhere (including from within their own party in the Night of the Long Knives). Socialists reject the racialist theories and totalitarianism of the Nazis, while Nazis rejected the internationalism, egalitarianism and the class struggle policies pursued by many socialists.

And if they did, what would then happen to the complex ethnic balance in northwestern Iran? Look at a map before making such a statement.
“Iraq is not a particularly religious state, and so the sectarian stuff doesn’t play as well there.”

XmasG… “do you really have this much trouble with the truth/common english?”
No, it is more a trouble with swallowing the Bullshit you keep repeating.
You really fit the NeoCon mold to a “T”.
You just keep repeating the same lies, and expect that through repetition alone it will become truth.
The world just doesn’t work that way, XmasG.
christmasghost spews:
donna…why don’t you specifically tell me what “the lie” i repeat is?
hmmmm?
i would love to see that…
but i think we all know that you can’t.
after all…anyone that is so childish as to use terms like “neo-con” are backward to say the least.
sticks and stones baby…that’s all you’ve got.
but i’m waiting for you to tell me THE LIE……
tick tock baby…we haven’t got all day here.
you do…but the rest of us don’t.
Donnageddon spews:
XmasG, the lie you keep repeating is that the fighting in Iraq is between non-Iraqi’s.
That, XmasG, is a lie, and you know it.
Donnageddon spews:
And XasG, I have to assume from your posts that you are 5 years old.
So you ignorance is understandeable.
Mickymse spews:
Goldy, if you have a real e-mail address and links to various websites, you should be sure to forward that over to the folks at the Anti-Defamation League since they track stuff like this…
Dr. E spews:
“dr.e and donna………where have you two been? do you have absolutely no idea of what is really going on?”
Tellya what, why don’t you turn of Faux News and ask your hubbie to translate this for you;

“And XasG, I have to assume from your posts that you are 5 years old.

****need i really say more????? god…too funny.******
and dr.e….i don’t generally watch fox news except for occasionally watching brit hume. but i take it you are a big fan?
i think the best way for anyone to get their news is from several sources…you should try that. and try to stay away from the obvious shills like der spiegel….cripes, i can’t believe you used that one.honey…step away from the red herrings for your own sake, will you? but thanks for the laugh. have you not heard the rumor that the germans aren’t exactly big fans of america? so, in the real world, smart people try to exclude the obvious ones like that. and before you go on some rant about them not liking us because of george bush…think again. remember, i have a german husband. they really hated clinton. they thought he was “trash”.
they were right too.
Dr. E spews:
“obvious shills like der spiegel”
What the hell are you talking about? Have you ever read the magazine?
“i think the best way for anyone to get their news is from several sources…you should try that. ”
What would those be? I get mine from at least half a dozen sources on a daily basis, and have a read the foreign press regularly — in several languages.
“have you not heard the rumor that the germans aren’t exactly big fans of america? ”
To be frank, most of the world aren’t exactly fans of America anymore. If I understand your view correctly, one should only get news from sources friendly to the current administration. Is that true?
Jesus Christ, woman, your ignorance is massive and impenetrable.
Dr. E spews:
BTW, it’s exactly this type of ignorance that keeps the ignoramus Bush on the throne.
christmasghost spews:
dr.e….found religion have you?
your ignorance is truly frightening. number one, when you say extremely telling things like “I get mine from at least half a dozen sources on a daily basis, and have a read the foreign press regularly – in several languages.” and “To be frank, most of the world aren’t exactly fans of America anymore”
don’t you realize just how transparent you are? they were never fans of america except on a fair weather basis. where have you been?
you cannot run a country [or a business] on a popularity contest.you obviously have never been involved in running either. let me guess….prof. at evergreen with a Ph.D. in old english?
christmasghost spews:
no wait…i got it. your “degree” is in poli-sci isn’t it?
Dr. E spews:
88/9
I don’t really understand your comment… let’s see:
“you cannot run a country [or a business] on a popularity contest.”
What do you advocate? A to-hell-with-diplomacy, bombs-away foreign policy?
and:
“you obviously have never been involved in running either.”
You mean like a marathon? You’re right, I don’t run marathons.
Dr. E spews:
Incidentally, do you have a “degree”, and if so what kind?
christmasghost spews:
dr.e…so sue me …i left out a word. i meant to say “you have never been involved in running one”…as in a business. i assume i don’t have to ask you that about a country.
no, i do not advocate a ‘to hell with diplomacy’ policy. i want real diplomacy. not the chamberlain kind.
however…if the diplomacy fails…you bet …BOMBS AWAY. i am a firm believer in security through strength…especially when dealing with islamofascists. guess who said this:
“”How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property — either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.”
any guesses?
no degree. i don’t need one to be an artist. artists with degrees are called failures in my line of work.LOL [professors]
but i am surrounded by Ph.D’s…….
now, guess without googling [that would be cheating]
