As in grammar are the main and secondary recommendations, so in life there are major and 
minor issues. The suspicion that while significant and not trivial is slightly misleading. 
Just in the same way as if removing a deftereousa proposal from one main phrase can stand 
irrational and incomprehensible, so the secondary (or secondary) things in life are often 
necessary to obtain reasonable and the main ingredient. ---- Allow me, therefore, from 
indolence pauses me to address a secondary issue related to the absolutely tragic and 
criminal situation right now in Gaza is that the criminalization of "Jews" as an ethnic 
group, a caricature -in MY opinion of historical anti-Semitism. And I will explain why in 
my opinion this attitude turns into perspective against the Palestinian struggle and the 
struggle of the whole oppressed peoples for their emancipation.

You do that, obviously not taking even one "and" from what I have written so far for Gaza 
and my opinion on the state of Israel -and that even my "cost" and a few welcome deletions 
of some here, including a professor in the humanism of the addressed more in cats than in 
children and a "situationist" characterized for days "tzichantonazistes" me and my mates 
organization. But this can not hide from my eyes cases like my listeners deemed wise to 
send a message to the station "Take the shit-Jew" when I put a song by Leonard Cohen or 
the lady who wrote that Hitler "not only was a fascist, but he did half the job "or 
continuous reference to" Jews "who either deliberately or by confusion, substitute in this 
formula is why the State of Israel.

Antisemitism, historically, is the matrix, the basic constituent substance of European 
racism, already faded from the late 18th century. Around him up the idea of ??the 
superiority of the European race and especially European culture, unifying element of 
which is Christianity -as mechanism connected to the states. That is why, a common class 
for Jews is that "Christ crucified." Around this idea the anti-Semitism will not only get 
great proportions throughout Europe, but it will become and integral part of political 
nationalism in Europe -in base will integrate newly established nations and states. Around 
the idea of ??anti-Semitism will support the idea of ??authoritarian states will 
experience Europe after the Commune and even be set up by the European Right. The most 
important political workshop of Europe in the early 20th century France, the anti-Semitism 
or denial will become a second dividing line between left and right, after the main class, 
the Dreyfus affair and then. The birth of the secular state in France will rely largely in 
denial of anti-Semitism. The actual anti-Semitism will however remain very popular in 
nationalist trend in Europe and will certainly become the largest nationalist flag crime 
history, this committed by Nazi Germany.

The most important, however, perhaps, is that the idea of ??Christian superiority, 
cultivated under antisemitism, will be transferred as such in the same way -and based on 
popularity of antisimitismou- every ratistiki expression of European civilization. The 
most case is interested, is the justification for colonialism. The European campaigning in 
Africa and Asia, slaughter, destroy cultures, populations disappear, in the name of the 
superiority of the Christian European culture that turns into a collective neurosis 
throughout the continent and defeating each voice claiming to challenge the correctness or 
political virtue colonialism. In this ratsistikikapitalistiki Europe, twice would come to 
declare war on itself managing to surpass him both to cruelty, anti-Semitism is the main 
expression of the internal enemy.

The Holocaust of the Second World War would lead relatively quickly to the criminalization 
of "anti-Semitism", while the rest of European racism and innervation of the superiority 
of white Christian civilization will remain intact, creating a new wave of fans even 
during revolutions that will crush colonialism in Algeria, in India and elsewhere.

The rib is at the root of each new European racism and the most aggressive among them 
today is Islamophobia. No racism would not be so strong in Europe if not based on the 
powerful concept of anti-Semitism. And it is not by chance that these two seemingly 
opposing racism, anti-Semitism and Islamophobia, peacefulness coexist in most potential 
racist movement in Europe today, the "National Front" of Marine Le Pen. There the old 
anti-Semitic guard daddy Le Pen maintains excellent relations with the new generation 
ilamofoviki that surrounds the pupil, just because consolidated around the central idea of 
??the traditional white and Christian supremacy.

The problem with the "left" anti-Semitism is therefore not simply to be "unholy" or 
"disrespectful" to the victims of the Holocaust. The problem is that the logic of 
reproduced, lurks all the power of racism and Islamophobia. Moreover, throughout Europe, 
the ruling classes fought the Muslims, Islamists and migrants, with the same or similar 
arguments that politicians ancestors beat the Jews.

This case has two sides: Those and many in the name of defending the Palestinians resort 
to anti-Semitism by referring to "Jews", reinforcing with all their might the arguments 
upon which the current European Islamophobia. Those and many in the name of defense 
against the anti-Semitism resorting to Islamophobia, reproduce with all their might the 
arguments gave rise to anti-Semitism. A look at the positions of the Israeli and 
Palestinian anarchists and communists, will help you to realize their error.

Between these two clashing rocks, the Argo of Liberty must be passed with the lowest 
possible losses. For us, anarchists, communists, libertarians, socialists, it is about 
coexistence without bosses and exploitation. This does not mean neutrality and away from 
the logic of "equidistance" between murderers and victims. Such a liberating development 
can not be realized outside the full solidarity with the people of Palestine, in the 
desperate struggle for freedom and life, still struggle to win it any way they can forget. 
But this support in a race with national characteristics is the wing that gives the Argo 
in an attempt to get the clashing and walked to freedom of each and equality for all. If 
you fall in inverted racism will never reach there.

Not only because no racism is not "good". But why behind any racism hiding another and 
this perpetual reproduction nourishes the powers and allows powerful exercise theirs.

Victory to the people of Palestine. This victory passes from the denial of anti-Semitism 
and Islamophobia and to claim the right of peoples to live without oppressors. Thousands 
of rebels, Arabs and Jews, have understood and fought for it. It's our turn.
