(Jewish Group) Anti-Semitism, the Holocaust and the Nazis are no laughing matter ... as if the world

(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!)

Anti-Semitism, the Holocaust and the Nazis are no laughing matter ... as if the world needed to be told these things

Gas the Jews! Hilarious, eh? I know it will be difficult to contain yourselves after that gem of a joke, but when you have finished guffawing we need to talk not just about what constitutes humour these days but also about the current, concerted and right across the political spectrum rise in anti-Semitism.

This week a Scottish "comedian" (self-designated) was fined £800 having previously been found guilty of broadcasting online a vile video of himself repeatedly shouting "Gas the Jews" to a pug dog he'd taught to do a Nazi salute.

The animal was filmed against a backdrop of footage of Nuremberg rallies and Hitler speeches and, for a bit of variety, also included the "comedian" shouting Seig Heil.

More pertinently, the case is a reminder that anti-Semitism isn't just a hallmark of the far-Left (and indeed, the nearer-Left) but of the far-Right and, increasingly of just about anybody in between who wants to hurl around a bit of racist abuse without facing the same censure they would if the target group were any other minority on earth.
