Catholic Church equates anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism

Catholic Church equates anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism

Haaretz Correspondent

The Catholic Church condemned anti-Zionism as a cover for anti-Semitism by means of a joint statement issued by a forum of Catholic-Jewish intellectuals this week.

The announcement was made at a gathering of religious, academic and other leading Jewish and Catholic figures in Buenos Aires.

"We oppose anti-Semitism in any way and form, including anti-Zionism that has become of late a manifestation of anti-Semitism," the statement said.

This is the first time that anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism have been equated by the Catholic Church.

The statement also includes a stern condemnation of terrorism, particularly terror in the name of faith.

"Terror is a sin against man and against God. Fundamentalist terrorism in the name of God has no justification and cannot be justified."

Ilan Steinberg, director of the World Jewish Congress, one of the forum's organizers, described the joint statement as "an historic moment."

"For the first time, the Catholic Church recognizes in anti-Zionism an attack not only against Jews, but against the whole Jewish people."

Senior Jewish figures called the announcement a significant, public statement of support by the Catholic Church in the face of anti-Zionism.

"In the past, Zionism was equated with racism, and this statement turns anti-Zionism statements to a form of racism," a Jewish leader said in New York.

The statement joins a prior European Union announcement and UN declaration of war against anti-Semitism as part of a global front fighting the scourge.

LOL. Looks like I've missed the last few meetings of "the gang", but I do have my secret decoder ring with me.

unwritten rules, Sammy, SG, aka Mojo (Mr. Mojo?) and his band of maggots, if your decoder ring does gibberish let me know what the the nutcase is saying.

JJR a crook, Jews on FR flying around like monkeys (a rather Islamic choice), stupid FR Jews, Evil FR Jews,.... I've heard stuff like that elsewhere. Be careful where you surf harrowup, I wouldn't want your computor to catch internet VD

Now, is Mojo taking credit for the 'gibberish' nonsense? Shame on him; that was s-squat when he couldn't handle the heat...and he stole it from Appy Pappy and I think he may have used Blazing Saddles as his source.

As to your warning about dangerous surf, I don't visit aimoo and/or communicate with any of those lunatics except those, like you, who use different names here and there.

By the way, did you know Mojo used to pretend he was black so he could vent his racist opinions without fear? It didn't work. The real blacks on the site kicked him out in a few days of his ranting. In that regard, I am amazed you've lasted as long here.

Are you going to vote for Ditka?

And, veronica. You did get the memo...long, long time ago.

That said, you all have proved my points...that you are racist-bigots, liars and bullies. What I didn't know until now is that Sammy has been a stealth anti-FReeper all this time. Do you play golf, Sammy?

I'll let you have the last word Sammy. Anti-FReepers and those whose aim is to destroy this site if they can't run it are not on my list of pigs I can live with without getting very personal in a private kind of way.

I think you’re a lunatic.

Aimoo has some interesting biographical info on you, I admit.

I was thinking of Libertypost. Remember LP? You started this idiocy there. Harrowup posts there, SJackson occasionally posts there.

They talk about the Jews on FR infiltrating places frequently (at the other libertyforum too), including the role of the ADL. There’s a thread on it. Ironic you’re apparently the only member of the ADL in this conversation, yet you bash everyone else over their ADL sympathies. Typical leftist. Along with a lot of other anti-FR idiocy, FR thievery, FR reading private FRMail, you know that. It seems to me you suggested we go over there to discuss this, so we can swear freely, and get Libertypost some hits besides, maybe even a new member or two.

I don’t get the Mojo and Sammy stuff, any more than I get SG. Is Mojo Mr. Mojo? What Appy Pappy has to do with all this I don’t know. He seems like a nice guy. Of course I don’t get what blacks have to do with anything either.

I’m curious, FR has a multitude of ping lists. You freak out only about the ping lists supportive of Israel, why is that?

You consistently refer to Alouette and I as pigs and flying monkeys, rather Koran-ish, isn't it? Why is that, keeping common cause with the jihadists?

Veronica, next time give me a copy of the memo, then I’d know what he’s hallucinating about.

Negative. It did come from Blazing Saddles but he didn't get it from me. I think he got it from watching you.

The odds that an anti-Zionist is not also anti-Semitic are vanishingly small.

I trust you.

Forgive me for not pinging you but read the thread, and his other attack thread and you'll understand why. Kind of like discussing cuisine with Jeff Dahmer. I think I get the sammy and golf thing now, I understand Ditka, our own Jessie Ventura good for months, maybe years of discussion, but who's mojo?

Mojo - former freeper in good standing. Ran security at the March for Justice. Sworn enemy of OWK. Now an anti-freeper.

Speaking of gibberish, do you ever tell the truth? That is rhetorical.

Sorry, punk. I don't freak out anywhere. Not my style. I have criticized your use of the ping list to gang bang posters who step out of your control. Should you ever take the time to actually read and comprehend what I have written it should be clear to you, but given the fact that you seem to think that aimoo and Phats are good sources I'll leave it there.

You abuse the ping list. That makes you a thug. You fail to question the hatefulness of the JDL. That makes you a racist and bigot. You consistently confuse The ADL and Abe Foxman's misuse of his position in a fragment of the ADL. That makes you stupid.

You've apparently forgotten the times that I have replied positively to your posts with which I agreed. I don't take this personally but you seem to think you are important enough to be targeted. That makes you a professional victim. Meet Phats HappyPappy, another victim of a more fundamental nature. He likes to talk about Jews too, just like Mojo likes to talk about blacks. It gives them a chance to wallow in the garbage while maintaining their innocence. They leave in a huff if you don't let them spout.

In the end it all comes down to the fact that you are now firmly in their camp and that makes you worse than a pig; you're now just a common maggot on a hamster...and that ain't gibberish boyo, that's history...and I've wasted enough time on your ignorance and bluster, but if you want the whole story I suggest you ask someone not affiliated with any of your current sources. Maybe ask John Robinson. He knows them very well.

I will continue to comment when I think it is appropriate and feel free to disagree, but if you choose to bring in your attack team bear in mind that I will point it out to you.

Pig is an inside joke about funnier days at FR and flying monkeys have been a staple long before Israel was reconstituted and in my use whatever connection there is to the Koran is in your paranoid mind. But, if it bothers you and keeps you acting like a lunatic, rest assured I will continue to mention that you are a pig surrounded by flying monkeys.

Does your rag-tag team have a schedule or do you just agree that the last drunk to bed gets a shot? You missed.

I have no *gang* but as individuals, we certainly have caught your attention, haven't we? That is quite understandable since we are such a gifted people. However, I cannot make hide nor hair of your incessant squallings and inconsistancies, so I must assume you are playing some jind of a masturbatory mind game wherein you use as many words as possible to say exactly...nothing. except you don't like us because we can present facts and all you present are straw men and ad hominem attacks on each and every one of us. And yet you do fully understand that every one of us would, and have, also defended America in spite of your irrational ravings.
Has it occurred to you that not a single post you have made on this thread is either true or rational?
Now, I asked you a question way back on another thread about who you would want at your back. You promised an answer, but it was never forthcoming. So consider the question asked yet again.
BTW, are you a recruiter for the JDL? If you aren't, you should be. People who post the kind of unbridled animosity towards us politically Conservative, mostly Orthodox, Hebrews usually do more to strengthen us than weaken us...so by all means, continue exactly as you have. Your salesmanship by example is better than any recruiting literature we could possible come up with.
Anybody for the Second Ammendment? harrowup ain't... for *Jews.* He does the bidding of every far left dingbat association that wants G-d out of our lives; the Ten Commandments gone from Courthouses and Statehouses; a redistribution of money; and all those things we most hate about the left.
The next thing you know, he'll be claiming his daddy was a woman which is about as ridiculous as everything else he's claimed on this thread.
See, Lar, I can laugh at you because you try so hard to sound intelligent when a 12 year old can see that you can't. The more outrageous your claims, the more I want you to keep jabbering away 'cause we just couldn't make all this up if we tried. But for you, a special prayer Trust me....

In any case I just discovered after this many months that the way to quickly become a top of the line disruptor/detractor is to just lie more than anyone else.

Just why FreeRepublic would allow disruption of this type a week or so after the How do we penetrate Free Republic? thread on Stormfront is puzzling.

BTW, don't you love the pigs and flying monkeys jihadist stuff.

You offerin' some of yours, dudley? Thanks, but no thanks anyway. Makes a person crazy...as we can plainly see....and obviously you remain oblivious to it all. You should really report those side effects before you begin thinking you are also the Unknown Soldier lest you forget who all else you are. Smile, Sybil, you're on.
