More Vile Antisemitism in the Rahm Thread

Millfield posted a poignant (and now deleted) comment in a comment thread on Rahm Emanuel that devolved into Stormfrontesque type commentary:

Here are a selection of some of the comments that prompted Millfield to ask this all important question.

Rahm Emanuel follows a long line of Jewish Zionists who have steered US government policy to benefit Israel.

co2fortrees, there is another possibility.
The entire “team”, including the Leader, are evil. They dutifully serve the financial oligarchy, the banking elite, the Zionist lobby and the military-industrial complex. They will stop at nothing to protect the present fractional reserve banking system, never give up pushing cheap credit, continue endless “Wars on —-XXX” and print money.
He never did want change at all, if change were to mean anything significant.
You know, as we all grow older (I’m 49), we learn better and better to detect the “have I got a deal for you!” individual who actually only wants something from us.
Just another salesman…

There are far too many hard right Zionists who have power in America — that is the problem. Obama is a puppet of right wing neo cons,warmongers and zionists with their own agenda to re-structure the world for their own benefit, particularly, the Middle East. Just don’t mention Iran, and the ‘ threat’ they pose to ‘us.’
Cliched rant you say ? Sorry, it’s not my fault if the truth is a cliche.
Why do we have to have these people deciding our lives for us? It’s not only Obama who is under their thumb, look at UK too with Miliband, Mandelson, and Brown and all the rest.
Puppets and stooges.
Why do the wicked ones rule? Why is human society like that, and always has been, whether under Communist elites, or Capitalist hierarchies?
Rotten bouregois decadence, from top to bottom.

Anti Semitism means saying something Israel doesn’t like.

It seems that anytime anyone criticizes Israel, he is labeled as an anti semite and anyone who says a few words in support of the Palestinians is in favor of terrorism.

I’ve seen now the post by Taxhaven ( 14 Mar 2010, 2:46PM ) which answers in part what I had asked her.
Here is a fundamental article about Rahm by Alexander Cockburn

Remove the Zionist from the WH. Israel is acting horribly and should be treated accordingly, not given billions every year. Get Rid of Rahm.
