The American liberalism that failed

Our brothers, the liberal Jews in the United States, are in the eye of the storm and take a most visible position in the campaign against President Trump and the conservatives.

Our brothers, the liberal Jews in the United States, are among those who want to revive the socialist revolution. Many of them are hardcore about globalism.

As a result, they worked tirelessly to eliminate the candidacy of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. This is in contrast with the conservative positions of the American Right, a supporter of capitalism, patriotism and the right of every state to govern itself.

Our brothers, the liberal Jews in the United States, are in the eye of the storm and take a most visible position in the campaign against President Trump and the conservatives.

Where has liberalism led us? To cheap and free sex, which resulted in sexual harassment; lack of respect from children to their parents and teachers; lack of respect from young people to adults; and the lack of respect from soldiers to their commanders in the military where parents “have taken over.”

So much so that carrying out military tasks is secondary to the soldier’s comfort. “Liberalism led us and continues to lead us toward use of drugs and now we are in the midst of the battle to forbid the free use of cannabis. (“Liberal” Canada and several “liberal” American states have already approved it.) Liberalism has led the world to greed, the pursuit of publicity, and the takeover of the media by tycoons who in turn control the state. Because, after all, greed and popularity in the media have become global values.

Everyone submits to the media tycoons, from politicians to army commanders to entertainers.

Hollywood, which is the “bastion of liberalism,” has taught us to ask, “When a woman says ‘No,’ what does she mean?” It leads the world in the areas of sexual harassment and free, cheap and compulsive sex. Harvey Weinstein, Roman Polanski, Woody Allen, Dustin Hoffman and Kevin Spacey are just some examples.

During the peak of their famous movies, to force a woman with a hug until she surrendered and hugged back was a normal sight worthy of applause. Even the flower children of the 1970s, who were a liberal symbol, were a role model for millions of people around the world.

HOLLYWOOD PAINTED them, perhaps rightly so, as people who used sex as a “commodity” and relegated the family framework and values to media. Family values were a non-priority and they have yielded to the communal way of life. Remember the musical Hair?

Globally, our Jewish brothers led the Communist Revolution in Russia at the beginning of the last century, which ultimately failed. Trotsky and Marx set the ideological tone, while 30% of Bolshevik leaders were our Jewish brothers.

The revolution led to Bolshevik regimes that were totalitarian, corrupt, cruel, bloody – and barren of liberalism and freedom. Ultimately, the conservative American capitalist regime defeated them.

Those who argue for the justification of the failed revolution claim that people were simply not prepared for communism. This is a familiar and condescending claim that suits the global liberal elite as well as it does the American Jewish community.

Another point with a direct connection to Israel is that global liberalism led to the “migration of the Muslim peoples” to Europe and other places. The Muslims are growing and their political influence is increasing and influencing the positions of the so-called liberals across Europe.

This effect is making Europe hostile toward Israel. Are liberal American Jews trying to help us in this matter? Do American liberal Jews help us fighting the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement that targets Israel, or are they in fact part of the BDS establishment?

My liberal friends, what are you so proud of and arrogant about?

I support the conservatism that upholds family values, holds nation-states responsible for themselves, and works toward eliminating drug use.

I support turning sex into something pure; creating a relationship of respect between children and parents and between students and teachers; stopping immigration that harms security; and not returning to the corrupt socialism paradigm but rather to a more enlightened capitalism.

I also support the return of values and the desanctification of money; the aspiration for excellence and the return of control over the army to the commanders; and I support the return of control in the schools to the teachers, less liberal and more disciplined.
