Roseanne slams 'Nazi' Israel
digital spy ^ | 01-10-09 | michael thorton

Posted on 01/09/2009 8:18:16 PM PST by HogsBreath

Roseanne Barr has described Israel as "a Nazi state" for its conflict with Palestine.

The comedian, who is Jewish, has used her radio show and blog to criticise the country's decision to attack the Gaza strip.

"Israel is a Nazi state. The Jewish Soul is being tortured in Israel. The destruction of the Jews in Israel has been assured with this inhuman attack on civilians in Gaza," she wrote on her website.

However, the former sitcom actress has since retracted her remarks and claimed to be pro-Israel.

"I am going to shut up now. Forever, perhaps. I cannot take the hatred that I feel from people, I cannot bear the weight of it, but yet I could not bear the weight of my own silence. I renounce all vows to anything but the most high creator," she wrote.

She is a complete kool-aide idiot. Maybe by her admission I am going to shut up now. Forever, perhaps, she sees how stupid she has been.

It’s become a favorite past-time of the liberals in America to equate everyone, and everything they don’t agree with as either Nazis or Fascists - never mind that the person or idea they are labeling is often the exact OPPOSITE of what they are accusing them of being...

As far as calling Israel a “Nazi” state - I guess they think it’s ironic, or funny in some way... I really don’t understand where in the hell they get the idea really - if Israel was rounding up Muslims that live (in PEACE) within Jerusalem for example and EXTERMINATING them then they would have a point...

I know I’m preaching to the choir here, but this is so asinine.

I truly hope she does shut up now, though. I’m getting so tired of hearing actors, comedians, etc... spouting off about political issues as if they have some special insight due to their celebrity status. Talk about the height of arrogance - typical elitists really... Eventually this will all come back to bite them in one way or another. They should remember that McCain almost got 50% of the vote as well. If they were smart they would ALL shut up because they really are at great risk of losing half of their “fans” (if they haven’t already).

Whatever respect I had for Roseanne is gone now... It’s a shame really. I guess she has more of her father in her than she’d like to admit...

I cannot bear the weight

That's understandable!

I don't understand what's going on with Jewish Americans.

Yes, amazingly Roseanne has managed to offend both Jews and Nazis at the same time!

You may be encouraged to know that Roseanne made this year’s list of the twenty most annoying liberals, as #13:

http://rightwingnews.com/mt331/2009/01/the_7th_annual_20_most_annoyin.php

As for what Roseanne said, here’s my response:

Calling someone a Nazi, or comparing him to Hitler, has been so overdone that it has become the lame response to any argument. Nowadays when I see somebody do that, it tells me the accuser has lost the argument, because they can’t think of anything else to say. And usually the Nazi-Hitler connection is applied to American conservatives or to Israel, when other groups, like Islamist terrorist organizations, show more of a resemblance. Finally, such behavior shows a lack of understanding for modern history. If you include the European phase of World War II, the Third Reich is responsible for somewhere between 40 million and 55 million deaths. In terms of suffering and killing, only the Soviet Union under Stalin and China under Mao have matched that; Neo-Conservatives and Israelis are not going to come close, even on their worst days.
