Joe Kaufman
Just when you thought Joe Kaufman couldn’t make more of a fool of himself he proves you wrong! Previously, Kaufman eulogized a dead terrorist and racist by the name of Rabbi Meir Kahane, and we thought “well he can’t top that!” Then he called for nuking Muslim countries, and we thought “OK, that’s it, no way he can surpass such lunacy.” Then it so happened we learned he’s been paying homeless people to join his pathetic anti-Muslim rallies to bolster their numbers, and we’re like “golly jee, he keeps setting the bar so low.”
Recently, Kaufman was at a rally to express love for anti-Muslim politician Allen West and condemn CAIR South Florida. I kid you not, Kaufman’s exact words at the rally were “I love Allen West.” But that’s not the real ludicrous bit.
The ridiculous portion is Kaufman’s response to a reporter who asked him about his infamous call to “nuke the Mooslims”:
Reporter: “Do you support the nuclear bombing of Iran?”
Joe Kaufman: “No…um, well, I would never say whether I would support that or not.”
Why is this so ridiculous? Well, Kaufman has had 10 years to reflect and ponder on how he would answer this inevitable question, and the above is the best he could do. Rather then coming right out and saying he “wouldn’t,” as most conscientious people would, he hesitated and dodged. By dodging however, he not-so-subtly implied he is open to supporting such horrific action. That’s wily Kaufman for you I guess.
Who is he?:
Joe Kaufman, has been on the Anti-Muslim scene for quite a while now and is dubbed by the far Right-Wing FrontPageMag as, you guessed it…another one of their ”Investigative Journalists.” That he has been influenced by Meir Kahane and the Kahanist ideology is well documented, as is his love and angst for Kahane.
In the past he has been accused of contributing to the terrorist organization founded by Kahane known as JDL (Jewish Defense League) while others accuse Kaufman of at the very least holding views that parallel JDL positions.
Kaufman’s unsavory associations and views are quite real and they are only dangerous to America if you’re stupid enough to swallow his conspiracy theories but other than that he is simply a half-baked paranoid conspiracy theorist, some what along the lines of the “9/11 Truthers.”
In every nook and cranny there is a “Mooslim”…hiding and ready to get ya…so beware and be afraid. Be veryyyy afraid goes his story.
In this special LoonWatch series we will detail the exploits and punchlines that Krazy Kaufman throws out there and attempts to pass as serious journalism, commentary and investigation.

Why do my fellow Jews insist on acting like the people who once persecuted them?? Do they not see how wrong that is??

Don’t worry about it Mindy! Loons come in all shapes, colours, creeds, sizes!

I like the smiley guy in the background with the banner.
He makes me chuckle!

Yawn….another no morals douchebag.

that guy in the background should be president.
September 8th, 2011 at 3:01 pm
What I would ask Kaufmann, is whether he supports anyone nuking Israel
September 8th, 2011 at 3:02 pm
We need to set up a Muslim Defense League in the USA.
September 8th, 2011 at 3:05 pm
Corey, the guy in the background is stupid.
Kaufman is not a racist, he is a bigot. An Islmaophobe doesn’t necessarily equal a racist. though one can be both, one does not qualify the other. Kaufman would be for nuking Muslim countries whether their people are white, black, yellow or brown. That means he is not RACIST, he is ISLAMOPHOBIC, HE IS A RELIGIOUS BIGOT AGAINST MUSLIMS.
I am tired of the number of people who confuse these two terms. Racism and religious bigotry.
September 8th, 2011 at 5:05 pm
Most Islamaphobes I’ve encountered are also racists and are also anti-semites. So while bigot is not interchangeable with racist, in an Islamaphobes you get a trifecta, they’re bigots, racists and anti-semites, basically the new nazis.
September 8th, 2011 at 8:44 pm
“We need to set up a Muslim Defense League in the USA.”
Get ready for the “MDL is a front for Hamas” or “MDL is a front for the Muslim Brotherhood” bit. :/

Word!

Crow
Stop generalising. A nazi doesn’t have to be an Islamophobe.
Racism has been defined in law. There are laws in place against racist discrimination. There are no laws in place against religious discrimination.
The two issues should never be confused.
Let me repeat, so that you, Khushboo, Corey and others understand
RACISM HAS BEEN CRIMINALISED IN LAW
RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY HAS NOT BEEN CRIMINALISED IN LAW
September 9th, 2011 at 1:59 am
Repeat.
RACISM IS NOT RELIGOUS DISCRIMINATION?
anyone not understand this?
September 9th, 2011 at 2:07 am
“Get ready for the “MDL is a front for Hamas” or “MDL is a front for the Muslim Brotherhood” bit. :/”
I’ve said before that if even half of what those “Muslim Brootherhood is behind EVERYTHING” conspiracy types say about the organization is true, I, for one, would welcome our new Muslim Brotherhood overlords. They have certainly earned the world!
September 9th, 2011 at 2:09 am
“RACISM HAS BEEN CRIMINALISED IN LAW
RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY HAS NOT BEEN CRIMINALISED IN LAW”
Someone in the US refusing to hire a Jew or Muslim would get sued off existence.

HGG
I’m not talking of employment.
In the media it is unacceptable to make racist comments. However religous bigtory is another matter.
September 9th, 2011 at 3:34 am
This is an easy one to refute; simply ask: What country in Southwest Asia currently has nuclear arms and has actually thought of using them?
Living in Beirut, in the shadow of this menace, is pure anguish.
But this is how these people are; they ignore their own violence, and project onto others. Ask anyone currently going ape shit over “9/11″ whether they are aware that 14 city blocks, a living community and vibrant neighborhood called Radio Row, with thousands of residents and tens of thousands of employees, was wiped off of the map to make way for those architectural monstrosities.
September 9th, 2011 at 6:19 am
Racial and religious discrimination in the workplace have been criminalized. That doesn’t mean it’s illegal to be racist or bigoted against a particular religious group, nor doesn’t it mean that one can’t express hateful views (for example) on the Internet.

Islamic Inventors, no one said that racism=islamophobe but usually people who are racists are also homophobic, islamophobic, anti-semitic. They are, whether you like to believe it or not, are considered the “neo-nazis”.I believe that’s what Crow was saying and I simply agreed with him. I don’t know why you are so angry about this as if you’re defending them. NO need to get nasty and shout!
September 9th, 2011 at 9:35 am
It is time the Muslims would ask Iran to stop threatening Israel.Who are the bigots now?
September 9th, 2011 at 10:03 am
It is time the Muslims would ask Iran to stop threatening Israel.Who are the bigots now?
Is it ? er why ? When Isreals 200+ atomic weapons are a threat to all its neighbours .
Think about Irans recent past and its other neighbours as another reason for wanting atomic weapons Pakistan has the bomb Iraq had poison gas and wanted atomic weapons Plus there is Isreal with its vast atomic arsenal.
better question why wont Isreal allow inspectors in ? Iran does
September 9th, 2011 at 10:48 am
@Sir David:A knife in the hand of a surgeon can save a life but in the hand of a CRAZY MUSLIM can take away life.Israel has every right to defend itself.What about the Nuclear arsenal of Pakistan? Any comments about that? Are you a puppet of Muslims hoping for 72 virgins in the seven star Islamic BROTHEL called Jannat{Islamic Paradise}.
September 9th, 2011 at 11:02 am
Halal pork since you lucky and caught me at a good time and since I believe greatly in prayers to Allah; it’s Friday today and we are having Jummah prayers so I will utter a special prayer for you.
Halal Pork, May Allah put a permanent halt to all your abilities to spread lies about Islam, Amin.
No need to say thanks! You are welcome!
September 9th, 2011 at 11:14 am
@ Islamic Inventors:
You’re right; Islamophobia is not NECESSARILY the same as racism. However, in my experience the two are more often linked together than not. A typical Islamophobe will often say something like ‘Islam isn’t a race,’ and then go on to denigrate Arabs, Asians, Turks or any other perceived ‘Muslim race.’ They will very seldom attack black Muslims, white Muslims, or whatever. In fact, most seem unaware of the racial diversity within Islam. To them, Islam is automatically identified as ‘foreign,’ ‘no and ‘non-white’.
We’ve seen examples right here on LW. Remember the one about a community that was fine with a mosque once they found out the attendees were white Muslims from Albania rather than ‘Arabs.’ Or the comments from that German loon about how ‘backwards’ the Turks living in Germany were. I’d never heard of the guy before and quite frankly can’t be bothered to remember his name, but you should be able to look through past articles and find it. Point is, more often than not, hatred of Islam is used to justify hatred for ‘brown people,’ or ‘non-westerners’ in general.
So yes, not all racists are Islamophobes, nor are all Islamophobes necessarily racist… but there IS lots of overlap. The same people railing against Islam today are the same ones who rails against Jews, blacks and immigration in decades and centuries past. And if it wasn’t for Islam being the new political scapegoat, it would be someone else. Do you really think the EDL/BNP thugs would be cool with a Sikh, Hindu or even Asian Christian marrying their daughter, let alone holding public office in Britain? Unsurprisingly, their own supporters *ahem*token minorities*ahem* are jumping ship now that they’ve realized the EDL is anti-Semitic!
@ Halal Porker:
I wasn’t aware we Muslims have a top secret hotline to the President of Iran! Especially those of us who are not of Persian descent and/or don’t live in Iran in the first place, much less speak Persian (or Dari, or Tajik)!
September 9th, 2011 at 12:00 pm
Yes Mr Pork, maybe you can share with us how nukes can, ‘in good hands’ save lives…
Oh and you know that there are Fatwa’s that are against nukes? I agree with them; basically a nuke is far to indiscriminate and does far to much damage to be able to be considered for use by a Muslim military. They go against everything in the rule book.
Oh and do you also know that the USAF was using the Bible to justify the launching of ICBM’s? Them’s the big missile thingys that the US have a huge number of and that have lots and lots and lots of nukes in them and can take out whole countries.
See the contrast? No, of course you don’t.
Oh and I know a *lot* of Muslims surgeons and doctors thank you very much, actually the best dentist I ever had was a Muslim, I still fly back to the UK for him to do my dental work sometimes. Heck, if there weren’t Muslim surgeons and doctors in the US and Europe then the health system would have sunk far lower than it is now, deny that at your peril. People like you always scream and shout about deporting Muslims without realizing what a stinking hole it would leave in the job market.
September 9th, 2011 at 12:01 pm
Also, good for you AJ, I have also prayed for Mr Pork and people like him on a number of occasions. I think we should all help him as much as possible, I feel quite sorry for him.
September 9th, 2011 at 12:25 pm
@Zakariya
that cant be true, everybody is aware of the muslim hive mind that the patriots created in order to control the world for there ends in fact spencer found out about this from his rubber ducky named “raynald”
September 9th, 2011 at 12:28 pm
Jack C,
Exactly. Lets all say special prayers for these loons whenever we have a chance. I think too often Muslims get distressed with all the Islamophobia spread around. As it’s said in the Quran [2:62];
“Lo! Those who believe (in that which is revealed unto thee, Muhammad), and those who are Jews, and Christians, and Sabaeans – whoever believeth in Allah and the Last Day and doeth right – surely their reward is with their Lord, and there shall no fear come upon them neither shall they grieve.”
Yes, we shall not be fearful nor shall we grieve. We will pray, InshAllah

“In the media it is unacceptable to make racist comments. However religous bigtory is another matter.”
Depends on the media. Saying Jews control the media got Rick Sanchez fired from CNN and saying Muslims made him uncomfortable got Juan Williams fired from NPR.
September 10th, 2011 at 3:19 am
NassirH thank you for that link. You’re right, I meant on the internet, or even generally, it’s not yet socially unacceptable to count religous bigotry as unaccepable as say racism.
Khushboo,
I’m “angry and nasty” about it, (but not at you, don’t take it personally) because it’s the reason Muslims are lousy at fighting Islamophobia. A lot are recent immigrants and confuse racism and Islamophobia. It’s only now, that some are getting and understanding it, and fighting it effectively.
You are right, you can be both racist and bigoted, but the two are not the same, nor do bigots have to be racists, Islamophobes for example ally themselves with all races.
September 10th, 2011 at 4:23 am
halal dork: AJ;You might as well pray to a Tree or a Black- Stone of Kabba which you worship and kiss at Mecca.
Do you worship Justin Bieber?
September 10th, 2011 at 5:16 am
Oh dear Mr Pork… not a bright one are you? I happen to be a Muslim thank you very much, how about you read the Qu’ran for a change rather than spouting your hate? It is you that needs to open their eyes, not us. Also, the main ingredient of terrorism being Islam… how are you explaining all the non-Muslim terrorist groups? And are you also going to kick out all your Muslim doctors in the US now? Please do, more for us in the rest of the world.
And I know that nutters like you like to do the whole numerology thing but 9:11 being chosen specifically over certain numbers doesn’t make sense at all. Partly because they were terrorists and would have done it when they could but mostly becuase most of the world don’t use the American dating system; most countries in the world use day/month/year rather than the American month/day/year, i.e. it would come out 11/9/2001 which doesn’t correlate to everything. Plus they’d have been using the Islamic calender, not the Georgian one. But don’t let the facts get in the way of your false numerology, I know it is central to your faith so I fully expect you to ignore this paragraph and everything else I write. You can’t handle truth can you?
Oh and of course, 9/11 didn’t just kill Americans thank you very much, there were hundreds of people of different nationalities there, including 300 Muslims. More truth for you.
September 10th, 2011 at 6:40 am
halal Dork
you just Hate. Are you sure this will give you a long life and maybe an eturnal one hereafter?
I suspect it will lead to stress in this life resulting in early death and burnt toes in the next life.
Have a nice day
September 10th, 2011 at 8:15 am
As expected, the numerology bit was ignored
No Mr Pork, if I am to bow my head in shame, then you are to bow your head in shame for all the Christian mass murders that have happened throughout history. But I don’t demand that you do that. Why? Because both you and I are disconnected from said mass murderers. I had no direct link with the people who carried out 9/11, none at all, why should *I* be responsible for their grievous sins? They did the wrong, they went against Islam doing it, they are the ones responsible and on their heads and shoulders it will weigh.
Oh and drop the BS about you being granted eternal life, how do you know you’re going to get it? Like Sir David says, you’re hardly doing your record very good here are you?
September 10th, 2011 at 10:07 am
Go on then Mr Pork, I could use a laugh tonight. Because, of course, you know my faith far far far better than I could! The fact is that, in committing the 9/11 attacks the attackers went directly against Muhammad teachings about not harming civilians.
Oh and according to you isn’t Jesus basically God? In that case, he comited many many acts of genocide, the city of Sodom comes to mind, when he was God. You really really don’t want to go down this path, I eat missionaries for breakfast.
September 10th, 2011 at 10:15 am
“He is the SAVIOUR of HUMANITY and not the DESTROYER.”
You must have missed Gill’s Exposition of the Entire Bible regarding Jesus’ return:
“There shall be no more war; horses and chariots shall be no more used in a hostile way; but there shall be perfect peace, all enemies being destroyed, which agrees with Micah 2:3 Zechariah 9:10.”
September 10th, 2011 at 10:19 am
@halal dorkkk
well gee isn’t there a verse in the bible to where he told his apostles that if a city rejected them he would destroy the city worse then what was done to sodom, then there is the biblical end times where it is said jesus would return an kill unbelievers and establish a kingdom in a theocracy after having all those who don’t accept him as god placed into eternal torment in hell.
