Dear Bill Maher,
Your Panelists Were Wrong
As I sat watching your show a few nights ago, Bill, you described your gut-wrenching shock at the recent rise in antisemitism in America. Your panelists echoed your comment that “antisemitism is the most ancient form of bigotry, and it is something that is wrong for civilized people to believe in.” That is, unfortunately, not correct.
While you and most other Americans have been shocked by this recent outpouring of antisemitism, I am not. I am not shocked because I have been watching and covering this since May 2021. Since then, I have been nervously watching as we move closer and closer towards an American pogrom.
When I first used the term “American Pogrom,” in 2021, people thought I was insane. In fact, they still think I’m insane, and they’re right. I’m insane because I’m right.
A pogrom, for anyone who doesn’t know, is: “an organized massacre of helpless people and especially of Jews.” The most classic example is Kristallnacht, which happened 85 years ago today, in which German citizens attacked and ransacked Jewish businesses and places of meeting. Another example of a pogrom is what happened on October 7th all across Israel, but especially on the Kibbutzim and at the Music Festival. The fact that we are not universally calling the attacks a pogrom is also quite alarming, but that’s a topic for another time.
Antisemitism is not a monolithic form of bigotry, and it cannot be understood within the confines of modern American race theory.
If your panelists’ assertion was correct, that the reason we are seeing such violent antisemitism at the moment is due to its ancient history, then we would expect to see violent antisemitism like this happening consistently throughout history, but we don’t. There are often periods, and they can be extended periods of time, where it seems that antisemitism is in abeyance, or even decline. And, unfortunately, there are often periods when we see antisemitism rising to levels and heights never previously seen any time before in history. If one thing about the history of antisemitism is clear, it is that it is not a static beast.
The violence of the pogrom, which usually begins and ends on the same day, cannot be understood without first understanding the slow, non-violent, historical process that lays the groundwork for the inevitable pogrom.
The pogrom cannot be understood solely in the moment that it happens. It must be understood from the intellectual and spiritual developments that precede it.
To understand the imminent American Pogrom, we must understand what has been happening since 2015, with the beginning of the “whose life matters” wars. Then, we can see the way that Jews were systematically excluded from the liberal discourse in a way that would ultimately characterize Jews as inhuman.
(Has anyone ever heard someone say Jewish Lives Matter in this context? Or does saying that mean you’re a racist zionist? Because I have never heard a progressive say those three words, maybe it’s just me.)
The first and most important step in the organization of a pogrom is to intellectually prove that Jews are not human. This has been effectively done by antizionists. The number of college educated students who say things like, “there are no Israeli civilians” is shockingly high. If Israelis, even infants, cannot be civilians, and they are all robotically labeled “oppressors,” then they are always legitimate targets. No matter how old; no matter how young. Once the antizionists convinced the Left of this, they had effectively set their Pogrom in motion.
I became aware of this on May 12, 2021. Since then, I have been screaming myself crazy about the coming American Pogrom, and I’m telling you Bill, with all due respect, that every single talking head in America is missing the point.
Antisemitism is rising faster than it has since 1923, and no one in the American media has any idea why. We have just seen how, over the last decade, the Left intellectually legitimized the killing of Israelis by erasing their status as civilians.
If you want to hear the rest of my analysis of the situation, then I guess you’ll just have to have me on your show.
