According to Fiddish’s Steven I. Weiss, what is a quality J-blog? The answer is this one.
Let’s see..we have rubbishing fundamental beliefs of the Jewish religion:
Never missing an opportunity to make Orthodox Jews look like fundamentalist maniacs, Aish HaTorah provides this lovely article on “The Spiritual Roots of Anti-Semitism,” citing antisemitism as God’s punishment for assimilation.
(More here)
Rubbishing a true Jewish hero (Natan Sharansky):
He pied a notoriously scummy politician (felt that way by some israelis themselves not just crazies like greenhouse) and you think it’s ok to call him up and curse him out?
Defending Noam Chomsky:
Chomsky puts this in much more potent terms, quoted at the end of the film segment: “It is a poor serivce to the memory of the victims of the holocaust to adopt a central doctrine of their murderers.” It’s a hard pill to swallow, yes, but this statement should not be misconstrued as an attack on the Jewish people. Rather, I believe, it is the concern of an extraordinarily ethical Jewish man, who is hopelessly trying to talk some sense into his terribly hysterical people. For this he should be admired, and not condemned.
And rubbishing Israeli actions taken solely in self-defence (there are plenty more examples of this elsewhere in the archives).
I wonder if Mr Weiss can explain why exactly this is a quality J-blog? Solely because of the Jooglebomb campaign?
