You may have noticed that conservative students and their mentors have just concluded “Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week” on American college campuses. The goal, according to the David Horowitz Freedom Center, was to “draw attention to a leading issue of our time, radical Islam and terrorism.”
I mention this only because, for those readers living in Israel, the event would have been easy to miss. Not only because it was taking place thousands of miles away, but because of a concurrent local campaign which is still going on. Inexorable, inescapable, it has reached every home in the nation.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you: Judeo-Fascism Awareness Month.
The campaign can be seen to be more effective by far than its American counterpart. Perhaps this is because it cannot be ignored. Perhaps it is because it is led by the Judeo-Fascists themselves.
They are a compelling group. You can’t take your eyes off them. There is Larissa Trimbobler, who plays the beloved if dubious Sarah to Yigal Amir’s Shabbatai Zvi. Then there are the apostles. There is singer-screedwriter Ariel Zilber, who appears either to be permanently self-medicated, or in need of being. There is Avigdor Eskin, the prince of pulsa denura. There is Yigal Amir’s mother Geula, the molder of young minds, everyone’s favorite day care provider. And then there are the disciples, the rank-and-defile, the hilltop hopheads, the gunslinger grunge and grange society of the wild West Bank, the Kahane worshippers, the Muslim-baiters.
