Sicko Spits Abuse At Me

Someone over at Bernard Avishai's blog left this nasty, silly, vicious and incorrect comment, typos, etc. left in situ:

Well, well. If it isn't the Gaulieter of Judea, Yisrael Goebbels. Nice to see you again, yankeleh. Read your letter to the LA Times this morning. Did you know they published it in the Entertainment Section? The Los Angeles Times is not the publication it once was, but I have to hand it to them. After years of humoring your ego, they finally understand you for the clown you actually are, and are now showcasing your "talents" where they can do the most good. Very sensible. Times being what they are, we can all use a good laugh.:-).

Now, I'm sure back in that alternative universe known as Meedad Manor (its kind of like "Meerkat Manor", except here the little meerkats wear kippot and orange tee shirts, and while still retaining the abilty to stand erect on their haunches, have also mastered the art of goose-stepping) you're considered to be some sort of history scholar. Unfortunately, in the real world, the standards for scholarship are somewhat different. You see the problem here yankleh, is that when a known facist works for an organization called "The Menachem Begin Heritage Center", the perception is that you're more interested in polishing images and promoting ideologies than you are in "scholarship".;-)

To wit;

"...The full truth, as our archival documentation demonstrates, is that Mr. Begin refused to desert, and in autumn 1943, negotiations were conducted with the Polish Army Headquateres, with the participation of Aryeh Ben-Eliezer, who traveled from the United States, and Marek Kahan, among others, on the matter of releasing him through an official procedure"

but it was this little qualifier that confirmed my suspicions as to the veracity of your "official" narrative;

"...The anti-semitism that many Jews suffered while serving in Anders Army of Free Poles should not be forgotten either."

Los Angeles Times, Sunday, March 8, 2009, Entertainment Section, Pg D2, Feedback.

Nu, Yankeleh, I'm sure you won't mind if I take a moment to translate this magical mountain of horsesh*t into plain english.

Aryeh Ben Eliezer came from the U.S. with a suitcase full of money. He then proceeded to buy Begins release.

Clearly, the goal of this blather is to paint Begin as this honourable guy who would not desert the Army of his homeland. Please. The truth is likely far more common and mundane. I suggest that begin was a city jew in an army made up of disposesed polish catholic farm boys, along with all of the attendant jew hatred. He probably figured he was better off with them than in some ghetto back in Poland. But he was miserable and he was probably getting the crap kicked out of him on a daily basis. He needed to get out and go to Palestine. Desertion was not an option, as Anders Army, though Polish (and at some point early on had been under soviet authority) was essentialy a formation within the British Army and therefore subject to a code of Military Justice. Had he deserted and made his way to Palestine he would've been subject to arrest and inprisonment at anytime, anywhere. One thing this effete europaen does not like is prison. What to do? Get hold of his Betarnik buddies in the states to finagle an "official" release.

"... Let's not corrupt history with corrupt thinking and ideology."

Yeah. You're probably right. We should leave that to professional bullshit artists like youself.

Well, well. It's been a long time since such drivel has been spit my way. Truth, though, I really can't tell if this is a Polish-American or a psychotic left-wing Jew. I'm going for the latter even though the atrocious spelling is indicative of the other option.

By the way, all Ben-Eliezer promised was to lobby on behalf of the Poles in Washington where they had developed excellent contacts. Any money would surely have gone to the underground resistance struggle.

And my name is Yisrael, not Yankeleh.

The fact that he doesn't agree with you doesn't make him psychotic.

Suzanne Pomeranz said...

That a person disagrees is one thing.

That it's done in a vicious and anonymous way is another. It's the latter that makes this person probably psychotic!

Kudos to Yisrael for being the stand-up, intelligent and NICE guy that he is!

Hey Suze,

Heres a tip. Spend more time reading "The Sex Lives of Cannibals by Maarten Troost" and less time indulging in remote psychoanalysis and empty headed insights. Blog commenting is what I do to blow off steam. This is a discussion that is taking place in virtual reality, not in actual reality. And thats were its going to stay. I see no reason to compromise my privacy or the security of my wife and child just to satisfy your solipsistic definition of honorable behaviour. If chuckles can't stand the heat, he should get the hell out of the kitchen.

Suzanne Pomeranz said...

Blowing off steam is good - in the shower, running a marathon, such as that... but it's NOT good when it's done to denigrate human beings, whether real or "virtual" as you put it.

Disagreeing is one thing, but when it's done with hatred and the ugliness you display, it's totally inappropriate.

There's a certain etiquette that should be maintained on the Internet, and you crossed the line into virtual viciousness, towards Yisrael and now towards me, and both times, for absolutely no reason.

An apology is due to both of us. I suggest you spend more time around people and less time "blowing off virtual steam"! Try being an actual human being for a change.

He's struck again over at Avishai:

Yankeleh, Yankeleh. What? No melo-drama? No pleas to Bernard to intercede? You're taking all the fun out of this.:-)

So which is it, yankel? Am I silly. Am I vicous? Boy, that last post must've stuck a wild hair up your ass. You're like a chicken with its head cut off. Sorry about the spelling though. I lead a busy life which doesn't leave much time for editing blog commentary. Unlike yourself, I actually have a function. Unbelievable, isn't it? That there are people in this world who perform jobs and services that don't consist of pissing in the wind on cyberspace. It is instructive however that you focus on trivialities and indicative of a disturbingly pedantic and petty nature. I think you're a little obsessive compulsive. You might want to have that looked into, goebbels.

Now, as to your expected hackneyed retreat into victimhood status. This is not about anti-semitism. This is not about Jew hatred. I'm Jewish. I'm Israeli. My wife and son are Israeli. I served and fought in Zahal for 3 years. So for a guy who hates Jews, I sure have a funny way of showing it. Either that or I'm a glutton for punishment. This is not about Jews. This is about you. Whithout making too fine a point of it, you're drek. Now you know you're a drek. But since your're loathe to discuss this facet of your personality, I didn't think you'd mind if I took a crack at it.

Polish American or Psychotic Left-Wing Jew? Wrong again. I'm a Chinese Jet Pilot. Have a nice day yankeleh.

Dear Pirate,

I have had some experience dealing with slightly psychotic individuals who seek to define themselves, and thus justify their existence, by expressions of outrageous behavior, rantings and other forms of seeking to upset others so that their imbalanced nature will find comfort.

But I don't do that.

It's like the joke: "what did the masochist say to the sadist after the sadist requested him to whip him?" You know the answer, yes? It was: "No."

So, let's get back to basics: besides my name not being "Yankeleh", why do you find a need to employ Nazi terms? There are so many English words? Writing German enhances your lowly self-esteem? Is it better than acts of self-eroticism?

I do, actually, have a job and while not rich, I have succeeded in using my talents, admittedly more due to intelligence than brawn and technical ability to use my hands, to earn a living.

Now, since I do believe in self-improvement and even, what we refer to in Judaism as "doing repentance", if you would so kindly be more detailed as to what exactly irks you off about me, 'drek' is such an imprecise definition, I'd be happy to discuss matters.

Since I have corrected your errors about your wild claims regarding Begin, can we move on to more important issues, other than you?

And, if there is anything I can do for you, other than ignoring you which would be rather painful for you, just let me know. But try spelling correctly (or writing in Hebrew) since some words, if spelled wrong, can be misunderstood, and I wouldn't want to misunderstand such a unique example of a Jew. Unique, almost sui generis.

Have a nice life.
