Krugman, demagoguing http://blogs.jta.org/ENTRY_PERMALINK_HERE/krugman-demagoguing/ Paul Krugman, the New York Times economist who is usually very persuasive and reasonable—he’s a Nobel laureate and I’m not—has launched something of a loony jihad against the ADL. en-us rkampeas@jta.org Copyright 2010 2010-08-27T;20:06:00-05:00 Comment by Eliyahu eagreen@gmail.com It seems that neither Krugman nor Kampeas know about Muslim bigotry against Jews going back to Muhammad’s time, nor do they know about the traditional Arab/Muslim persecution, oppression, humiliation and pecuniary exploitation of Jews going back to early Islam—in fact back to Muhammad, according to Muslim sources. I modestly suggest my two articles linked to below, which may be helpful in this regard: http://hnn.us/articles/56698.html The following article was published in Midstream: http://www.think-israel.org/green.islamoppressedjews.html On the Ground Zero Mosque issue, Krugman ought to know that there are still people who deny the Jewish right to build homes, even in places where Jews lived before, and to restore Jewish holy places and synagogues, even in places where synagogues and Jewish holy places long existed. One of those denying people is Mr Barack Obama. If I am not mistaken, Paul Krugman supported Mr Obama’s candidacy to be the POTUS. Now that he is the POTUS, Mr Obama denies the Jewish right, for instance, to go back and live in the Shimon haTsadiq Quarter of Jerusalem, whence Jews were driven out by Arab armed forces in December 1947. He also denies the Jewish right to go back and live in the Silwan neighborhood whence Jews were driven out in the mid-1930s, with British acquiescence, to be sure. Judea-Samaria was the heart of the ancient Jewish homeland. Its Jewish connection was recognized by the League of Nations in 1922. Hence, it was legally recognized as part of the Jewish National Home in international law. This status was not changed by the 11-29-1947 partition recommendation of the UN general assembly.  Yet the POTUS refuses the Jewish right to live in Judea-Samaria. Even on real estate that has belonged to Jews for generations. How does that square with Professor Krugman’s supposed opposition to bigotry??
