Netanyahu and Queen Esther of Persia

Rehmat

Benjamin Netanyahu while addressing the American Knesset in Washington DC invoked Persians’ hatred toward country’s Jewish community over 2500 years ago.
Tomorrow night, on the Jewish holiday of Purim, we’ll read the Book of Esther. We’ll read of a powerful Persian viceroy named Haman, who plotted to destroy the Jewish people some 2,500 years ago. But a courageous Jewish woman, Queen Esther, exposed the plot and gave for the Jewish people the right to defend themselves against their enemies. The plot was foiled. Our people were saved,” Netanyahu said.
However, as an abnoxious Zionist liar, Netanyahu skipped the part from his Holy Book of Esther that describes how Queen Esther with the help of Mordechai’s (her father, uncle, boyfriend or whatever!) armed Jewish terroristsmurdered 75,000 Persian civilians in cold-blood.
Today the Jewish people face another attempt by yet another Persian potentate to destroy us. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei spews the oldest hatred, the oldest hatred of anti-Semitism with the newest technology. He tweets that Israel must be annihilated,” Netanyahu added.
Netanyahu was referring to Israel National News (January 28, 2010) report that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatullah Khamenie told the visiting Mauritanian president Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz: “The region would soon witness the annihilation of the Zionist regime. The timetable for the destruction depends on the functioning of the Islamic countries and Muslim nations.”
Israeli newspaper statement admits that Khamenie predicted the “annihilation” of “Zionist regime” – and not Jews or the state of Israel. But then, Zionist Jews are never known for a guilty conscience.
Rabbi Michael Lerner whom British Jewish writer, blogger and activist Paul Eisen called snake-oil doctor for selling the Zionist entity by acting as an anti-Zionism – posted an article, entitled Benjamin Netanyahu’s Fantasy World at his Tikkun Daily Blog on March 3, 2015.
Netanyahu is a master of manipulating the fantasies that the right-wing discourse advances. For example: the view of the world that sees “our side” (whether that ‘our’ be the US or Israel) as always innocent and good, and “the other” as intrinsically evil,” wrote Lerner.
Iran with nuclear weapons would be a danger to everyone. Well, that’s partially true and partially false. It’s true to the extent that any country having nuclear weapons is a danger to everyone on the planet (though the US is the only country in the world to have ever actually used nuclear weapons in a war). But it’s not true that Iran would use those weapons,” Lerner said, but then the “snake-oil doctor” came out of his closet, “While I detest the current regime in Iran and hope for its nonviolent overthrow by the people of Iran, I see nothing in their behavior that leads me to believe that they are suicidal. On the contrary, they have a strong desire to make their Islamic republic the model for all future Islamic societies.”
