I don't loath myself, just my people (continued)

PJM tackles the problem of Jew hating Jews:

Jews who viciously condemn the Jews—the phenomenon has, lamentably, been with us for hundreds of years. In medieval and later times, famed apostates like Nicholas Donin, Abner of Burgos, Johannes Pfefferkorn, and others would convert to Christianity and then use their “inside” knowledge of Jews and Judaism to attack their former people mercilessly and ostensibly confirm all libels leveled against them.

This, for me is the most important graf:

Particularly since 1977, when, for the first time, the right wing won an Israeli election, prominent Israeli leftists like Amos Oz, Yeshayahu Leibowitz, Zeev Sternhell, David Grossman, and many others have not been content merely to insist obsessively that Israel’s presence in Judea and Samaria is a primal sin. They also make a point of portraying Israel—and whenever possible, in venues abroad—as a country sinking into darkness and evil. It was in the 1990s that these highbrows’ main acolyte among Israeli politicians, Shimon Peres, was the driving force behind the disastrous “Oslo process” of appeasing terror that left thousands of Israelis dead, injured, and traumatized. By now, in the political sphere, the Israeli left has been soundly rejected by the population and is in bad shape. But the embittered leftist scribblers—concentrated in their stronghold, the Haaretz daily—keep pounding away with global, destructive criticisms.

Israel has been drifting right for decades. Even the political opposition to Likud is centrist right that leftist. And here is the nut. For Jewish and Israeli leftists, they are leftists before Jews and Israelis. Muscular, well armed Jews are a social problem with the smart set. Who wants to go to those parties in Manhattan when whole armies of Jews are blasting their enemies to bits?
