In previous articles we’ve highlighted the hideous things Pamela Geller said about the victims of the Oslo terrorist attack, calling them anti-Semites, socialists, Communists, Nazis, pro-Islamists, jihad-enablers, and rape-enablers. They had it coming.
But lest you think that Pamela Geller is the only one from the right-wing that has issued such insensitive and atrocious comments, let it be known that she is certainly not alone. Glenn Beck, for instance, referred to the victims as Nazis, claiming that they are the equivalent of the Hitler Youth. Another well-known personality and conservative blogger is also trying to grab the spotlight with her outrageous comments: Debbie Schlussel.
Remember how Pamela Geller included a racist caption saying that the victims were mostly “Middle Eastern” or “mixed” and not “pure Norwegian?” Seems like Schlussel wanted to top that, and so she had a similar picture but with a caption provocatively asking:
“Victims” or Perpetrators?
By the very fact that she asked the question–and that she placed the word “victims” in quotations and “perpetrators” without quotations–we can safely say that she is saying that the victims of the Oslo terrorist attack were actually perpetrators of terrorism–they were terrorists. At minimum, “they sided with Islamic terrorists.” Schlussel goes on to say (emphasis is mine):
Again, you must read Zalmi’s important piece on this, which provides far more detail on these “victims” of terrorism who celebrated terrorism against other victims.
Please savor the morbid nature of that statement: imagine, just for a minute, if some Muslim blogger wrote that the victims of 9/11 were in fact terrorists not victims. Can you imagine the outrage?
Schlussel also says that their deaths was just a result of “karma,” i.e. it was the universe giving them what they justly deserved. Opines Schlussel:
And I don’t get too upset when they face the karma that is their fate.
She goes on:
Karma is a bitch . . . especially for Jew-haters who were Fatah’s bitch. You hang out with snakes, you get bitten.
Oh, dozens upon dozens of children were shot and killed? Well, karma is a real bitch, suck it up. That’s the way the cookie crumbles, tough luck, bitches.
Schlussel agrees with Glenn Beck’s statement that the victims were equivalent to the Hitler Youth, saying:
More proof that Glenn Beck was spot on when he compared Norway’s Utoya Island political camp, shot up by Anders Breivik, to a Hitler Youth camp.
Aside from labeling them Nazis, Schlussel mocks the victims, calling them “spoiled airheaded kids” and “hateful, privileged brats.”
The delusional Schlussel calls the Oslo victims “would-be assassins,” saying:
I can’t feel sorry for those who support my would-be assassins.
What the smurf is she talking about? Basically, Schlussel has equated the Oslo victims with Hamas. Her proof for this amazing juxtaposition? Apparently, some of those on the island supported boycotting Israel for its apartheid policies towards Arabs. This “divest from Israel” campaign utilizes the methods used to pressure apartheid South Africa, and is in fact supported by none other than Nelson Mandela and Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Are Mandela and Tutu also a part of Hamas then? Are they anti-Semites and Jew-haters?
Schlussel also takes issue with supporting the Freedom Flotilla, shrieking that the children were playing a game
re-enacting of the HAMAS flotilla in which terrorists tried to murder Israeli soldiers
The Freedom Flotilla attempted to give humanitarian aid to the starving people of Gaza, who have been the victims of an inhumane and illegal blockade by Israel. It has nothing to do with Hamas.
Another image that Debbie Schlussel takes offense to shows a tee-shirt that says “tear down this wall,” which refers to the illegal Wall of Separation–more properly called the Apartheid Wall. Well, that’s the same decision that the United Nations and the International Court of Justice came to, namely that Israel must tear down the wall.
We could debate Israel and Palestine all day long, but regardless of that, is this really the time to be worrying about the Oslo victims’ political viewpoints? Perhaps we can just mourn their deaths as decent human beings are supposed to? No, not Debbie Schlussel. She calls the children “HAMASniks,” saying:
And I shed no tears for these HAMASnik campers with a Scandinavian dialect. Perpetrators are not victims. Sorry. HAMAS collaborators don’t get my pity. They never will.
Debbie Schlussel summarizes her cold-hearted and depraved position by saying:
For me, this is like Alien v. Predator. I’m not sad for either side. And I make no apologies for it. Now these kids’ families know what it feels like to be victims of the Islamic terrorists whose Judenrein boycotts and terrorist flotillas against Israel they support. We don’t live in a vacuum. I can’t feel sorry for those who support my would-be assassins. And I don’t get too upset when they face the karma that is their fate.
Sad for either side? What is the other side? There are the more than seventy victims–the majority of which were children–who were killed in this terrorist attack. And then on the other side is Anders Behring Breivik, the terrorist. Who in their right mind is feeling sad for Breivik that this even needs to be said? Is Schlussel equating Breivik to his victims? How absolutely sickening.
Debbie Schlussel calls the children “Fatah’s bitch.” I don’t know about that, but I do have some thoughts about who is a complete ….

It’s official. “Dirty Shits-el” is either completely insane, or PURE EVIL! If her actions weren’t so repulsive, i would make a few blonde jokes right about now. As for “b*tches” who support terrorism and deserve “karma” to catch up with them, she can chill with her fellow terror-huggers: Glenn Beck, Pamela Geller, Robert Spencer, David Horowitz, Osama bin Laden…

It seems like a lot of Jews are embracing the extreme far right ideology. I think that is ironic and sad, but not surprising. It seems that once the heat is taken off of us for a little bit, we end up doing the same things that were done to us, oblivious to how confused we really are.

Anti-Muslim Blogger: Slain Norwegian Teens Were ‘Hateful, Privileged Brats’
Posted in Anti-Muslim by Robert Steinback on July 29, 2011
Death and suffering to those she considers infidels – regardless of guilt or innocence – has become Schlussel’s stock in trade. After the American raid that resulted in the death of Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in May, Schlussel wrote, “Rot in hell, Osama Bin Laden. One down, 1.8 billion to go” – meaning the entire population of the world’s Muslims – “many of ’em inside U.S. borders.” Schlussel also danced a jig after the sexual attack on CBS correspondent Lara Logan in Cairo in February: “So sad, too bad, Lara. No one told her to go there. She knew the risks. And she should have known what Islam is all about. Now she knows. Or so we’d hope. … How fitting that Lara Logan was ‘liberated’ by Muslims in Liberation Square while she was gushing over the other part of the ‘liberation.’ Hope you’re enjoying the revolution, Lara! Alhamdilllullah (praise allah) [sic].”

American Jews Not Prejudiced Against Muslims, New Poll Finds
By Nathan Burstein
For all the distrust that supposedly separates them, American Jews feel a lot of solidarity with their Muslim counterparts.
That’s the stereotype-defying implication of a new poll by the Abu Dhabi Gallup Center, which shows that American Jews express more understanding for American Muslims than any other U.S. religious group.
Eighty percent of American Jews believe U.S. Muslims are loyal to the country, placing them behind only Muslims themselves (93%), and far ahead of the next most sympathetic religious group, Catholics, 59% of whom see American Muslims as loyal.
Jews also topped all other religious groups — except for Muslims themselves — in expressing the belief that U.S. Muslims don’t support al Qaeda.
In one case, American Jews actually managed to be more sympathetic to Muslims than Muslims themselves, with 6% more asserting that U.S. Muslims face prejudice from other Americans.
Gallup’s accompanying report doesn’t speculate on the causes of this affinity, but The Shmooze wonders whether centuries of “dual loyalty” accusations have heightened Jews’ ability to identify with other minorities.
Even on the most polarizing issue that divides them, American Jews and Muslims share the same general vision. Eighty-one percent of U.S. Muslims support a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, a view held by nearly the same proportion — 78% — of U. S. Jews.

I completely sympathize with your feelings. However, it is difficult in our view because most of the “faces” of right-wing conservatism in the media are vile, obscene characters. I am certain there are sensible conservatives. I know some. But their voices get drowned out by their extremist counterparts. Muslims are experiencing similar unbalanced coverage.

August 4th, 2011 at 9:51 am
@ bin dead for a while – in your search for “good” Jews (other than Mindy and at least one of the Loonwatch ‘staff’), you should check out Jewish Voice for Peace (http://jewishvoiceforpeace.org/). You could also look up “True Torah Jews Against Zionism”; “Jews Not Zionists”; “Naturei Karta”; and “Jews for Justice for Palestinians”. (I would give the links, but the comments section doesn’t seem to want to accept multiple links). None of these Jewish groups have found it necessary to renounce Judaism in order to seek justice and righteousness as regards Palestine and the conflict with Israel. In fact, some at least explicitly state that they don’t believe it’s possible to be a true Jew and a Zionist at the same time.
August 4th, 2011 at 10:07 am
Jim Kirk,
I stand corrected. Yes, even though I do not agree with Zionism, that does not mean you cannot have decent Zionists – you can. Thank you for correcting me.

August 4th, 2011 at 11:51 am
You know what? Call yourself whatever you want, Schlussel. Perhaps Right-wings sometimes have a little something against Muslims or something like that. But I REFUSE to label you as one. In fact, I can’t believe any right-wing conservatives on the media. Your actions should never represent a community of people, and I cannot consider someone so hateful to be a believer in a higher power. CHILDREN! you use the deaths of beautiful young creation to further your political agenda? Stay quiet, miss, and mourn the death of all life, because a child will never deserve an early grave. You and your pal Brehvik can stumble through some feeble anti-Palestinian crap some other day in your lonely corner on the internet, but hateful words will never survive in the afterlife. Let this plague you until then. Then we’ll see who taking in the karma.

I’m just flabbergasted this new pro Zionism push is going beyond racism into hating ANYONE who has the least negative thing to say about the Zionist state.

Secondly this woman is desperate for attention(maybe some psychological illness) to the extent that she gets an orgasm every time some other blog mentions her. Maybe it is time for loonwatch and other websites to simply ignore her

@marco
It is ridiculous to compare boycotting Israel to the Nazi boycotting of Jewish businesses in the 1930s. Israel has very wealthy and powerful friends, they’re not going to starve to death anytime soon.
I have a colleague who is part of a group that encourages boycotting Pakistan for (women and human rights reasons), I don’t see that as anti-Pakistani or anti-Muslim in any way and I don’t see how anyone can see it that way. Boycotting a nation is a way of showing that you object to it’s politics. I don’t boycott any countries and I think it’s a silly strategy.
I would equate this with the Muslims who compare our situation to that of Jews in 1930s Germany or who go on about a luming ‘Muslim holocaust’.

Meet Debbie Schlussel, who says Norway’s ‘HAMAS Youth’ got what was coming to them
by Paul Mutter on August 5, 2011
But back to Schlussel’s own anti-Islamic agenda. Before this most recent denunciation of insufficiently Zionist individuals, she famously responded to Osama bin Laden’s death by quipping “1 down, 1.8 billion to go.” When a family of West Bank settlers were murdered earlier this year, she approvingly quoted PM Netanyahu’s son’s remarks that “terror has a religion and it is Islam” and “not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims.”
Schlussel is an ardent Zionist – Hamas and Fatah are basically the same thing, in her analysis, and are dedicated to ending Israel forever. With this in mind, few individuals or institutions are pro-Israel enough for her: Republican Governor Chris Christie, for instance, is “Hamas GOP” because he appointed Pakistani-American Sohail Mohammed, a Muslim attorney who defended individuals (including Hamas supporters) that the federal government sought to extradite from the U.S. after 9/11, to the NJ State Supreme Court. Whole Foods is “anti-Israel” because it sells fair trade products from Palestinian farmers in the West Bank and has dared to wish its customers a good Ramadan (there is ill-intent behind this marketing ploy, of course). And, like Robert Spencer and Pat Robertson, she believes that mainstream media is “anti-American” (and thus, anti-Western) and panders to Islam because it is anti-Semitic, anti-Christian and anti-Western.
Both Congressmen Ron Paul (who has called for a U.S. withdraw from the Middle East and an end to the US$3 billion in aid Washington sends Israel annually) and Dennis Kucinich (who condemned the Israeli assault on the first Freedom Flotilla) are “for” Hamas, according to Schlussel. That a libertarian who caucuses with the GOP and one of the most lefit-wing members of the Democratic Party are somehow colluding to advance Hamas’s agenda is well within the realm of possibility for Schlussel: either you are with Israel (and the West – which, by extension, means you’re “with” civilization), or against it. For Schlussel, no Muslim can ever be “for” those things.

Well..now that you ask…
“I’ve written in the past about the vile, open anti-Semitism and Israel hatred espoused by Desmond Tutu, the celebrity cleric and activist in the fight against South African apartheid.”
“Tutu’s Israel-hatred is mirrored in many of the pan-Communist participants in the anti-Apartheid movement and their extremist African National Congress (ANC). And that includes Nelson Mandela.”
“And let’s face it. While they decried racism in South Africa, they hypocritically espouse the most vitriolic brand of anti-Semitism.”

I really hope the FBI or other law enforcement agencies are monitoring her statements, she should be under investigation and indicted. I mean if a Muslim was doing this about 9/11 victims he or she would be arrested and charged with in days. Not to mention the outrage he or she would be facing. I hope this will finally open up eyes and people will see the scum this pathetic excuse for a human being and those like her are.
