> “Jewish donors have a lot of explaining to do. A lot of decoupling to do,” he said. “Because Jewish donors have been the No. 1 funding mechanism of radical, open border neoliberal quasi-Marxist policies, cultural institutions and nonprofits. This is a beast created by secular Jews. And now it’s coming for Jews, and they’re like, ‘What on Earth happened?’ And it’s not just the colleges. It’s the nonprofits, it’s the movies, it’s Hollywood, it’s all of it.”
> About two weeks later, Kirk again made a similar argument.
> “Jews have been some of the largest funders of cultural Marxist ideas and supporters of those ideas over the last 30 or 40 years. Stop supporting causes that hate you,” he said on his podcast. “Until you cleanse that ideology from the hierarchy in the academic elite of the West, there will not be a safe future. I’m not going to say Israel won’t exist, but Israel will be in jeopardy as long as the Western children, children of the West, are being taught, with primarily Jewish dollars, subsidizing it, to view everything through oppressor/ oppressed dynamic. Until you shed that ideology, you will not be able to build the case for Israel, because they view Israel as an oppressor.”

I leave others to decide whether they think that's anti-semitic or sounds like a conspiracy theory.
- delichon 1y agoAs a Jew and a Zionist I agree with him. It is a legitimate criticism of my tribe. I still love and support my people and Israel though, so it's hard to describe myself as antisemitic. I happen to think we have contributed more to civilization than we have deranged it. It's OK to have complicated feelings about complicated questions.
- n4r9 1y agoDo you agree that criticising the actions of the Israeli government and military is the same as hating Jews? Because that seems to me to be what Kirk is saying there.
- delichon 1y agoCriticising Israel does not amount to antisemitism. Spreading blood libel about Israel, such as the genocide lie, does.
- n4r9 1y agoDespite the consensus of the UN and the International Association of Genocide Scholars...?

- delichon 1y agoUN employees participated in the 10/7 attack. You and I are not going to agree on their neutrality or authority.
- n4r9 1y agoSome members of a specific agency the UNRWA were investigated and fired for being "involved" (unknown if they participated). There's also the IAGS as well as rulings by the ICJ that Israel violated international law and arrest warrants from the ICC. Far-fetched to imagine that this is all some anti-Semitic conspiracy.
- dlubarov 1y ago> unknown if they participated There's clear public footage of Faisal Ali Musalam Naami (UNRWA employee) participating, at least. The Telegram chats also show widespread support for Oct 7 and other overt antisemitism - https://unwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/UN-Watch-UNRWA-Terrorgram-.pdf https://unwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/UN-Watch-UNRW... You can UNRWA is just one small part of the UN, but so was the commission of inquiry behind the genocide accusation, which consisted of 3 individuals with some questionable backgrounds. > arrest warrants from the ICC Why would Israel hand anyone over to a court whose jurisdiction it never consented to?
