South African Jews should be ashamed of themselves

I haven't written a real rant in a long time. Mainly because I feel that it frustrates me too much to concentrate so much negative energy on something that I can't really do much about, however, this one needs to be written. If anybody has issue with me after they have read this post, its too bloody bad.

Attention South African Jews: SHAME ON YOU! All of you. You all sit there in South Africa oblivious to what's going on in your own country and the rest of the world. As long as you have your big house, your fancy car per member of the family, a maid to clean up after you, all is grand in this world. Who needs a conscience when you have GAP patrolling your neighbourhood after all.

In the past few months, the signs of anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism have been all to clear to the rest of us expatriates while the biggest issue in your lives is that some idiot messed up the South African national anthem at the big rugby match.

The funny thing about the South African Zionist is that he is not in the least bit Zionistic. Its not enough to have a Yom Haatzmaut party once a year or to sing HaTikva at school assemblies. The reason why the Muslim world has such a huge influence is not due to their size or numbers. It is due to the fact that every death of every single Palestinian is met with calls of "war crimes" by every Muslim on this planet. They are united against their enemy, be it the West, the Jews or Israel. However, South African Jews are simply to selfish and ignorant to care about anything but the materialistic bullshit that blinds them from the truth that they live in a third-world dump.

Several months ago, Jonathan Garb jeopardized the safety of every El Al passenger who flies from Johannesburg to Israel by exposing the security methods El Al uses to profile passengers. I was in South Africa at the time; there was no outrage, no concern for safety, nobody standing up for the Israeli embassy or El Al or even the safety of South African Jews.

The result - A security officer was deported this Friday. The South African authorities have threatened to deport all El-Al security officers. Well done guys, your apathy has resulted in, what may be, the end of direct flights from SA to Israel. Alternatively, El Al can yield and risk the safety of passengers and the state of Israel - Isn't it a shame that you might not be able to send your children on free birthright trips any more?

In August of this year, a South African had to cut his trip short because his indictment for war crimes had been made public. Two Muslim NGOs are working with a Muslim lawyer to make a case against 75 South Africans who bravely fought for the IDF and risked their lives for the safety of their people and Israel. According to South African "law" - Citizens are prohibited from fighting for another country. Every day, this is becoming a more serious threat. Every day, South Africans in Israel are waiting to hear what the Jews back home are going to do in order to defend them and allow them to come back to their families without the threat of being arrested.

And the more we wait for you to wake up out of your materialistic high, the more frustrated and disappointed we get. Do you think this is going to end at the airport or with soldiers? What about synagogues, Jewish events, Bar Mitzvahs, even your beloved GAP, it will all come to an end if you let these people send your sons to jail for having the balls to defend the country they love. It is your responsibility as a community and as individuals to use the democratic rights that you have to stand up and defend a just cause. Whether you think so or not, your safety as a Jew relies on the existence of Israel. These people are actively trying to destroy it and they are winning because you don't care to help us fight back.

But why should any single South African Jew take a stand for their own people? Its not going to make a difference in your life is it? The house will still be clean, the cars will be there unless you get hijacked - which is just one of those things that happen - and the kids will still go to King David to learn all about Judaism and Israel - or is it because in reality, you don't want your children integrating with blacks and gentiles? Make up your minds, either you want to be assimilated or you don't, you can't sit on the fence unless you openly admit that you are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites.

You are Jews and whether you ascribe to that ideology or not means nothing to those who are trying to persecute and destroy us. The Nazis did not ask people how Jewish they were on a scale of one to ten. The genetic connection was all that was needed and that remains true to this day. Left-wing, Right-wing or completely a-political, you do not have a choice in how somebody else identifies you. In their eyes, all Jews are the same.

South African Jews, you have a choice to make. Will you unite with your people and stand up for the South Africans who have sacrificed the material values of life to fight and support the country you claim to love. Or will you do nothing? The maid is not going to clean this mess up for you.

I have always had a problem also with SA Jews who are so Zionistic and those who work for the Zionist Fed etc who never go on Aliyah Be that as it may one can not fault people for living where they are for whatever reason as the reasons are complex By the way SA s are definitely not ignorant as far as what`s going on Some may say that it`s more important to try and make a living as not everyone has geld in the bank and things are tough and getting more so AS for what you assert as far as El Al is concerned Maybe just maybe J Garb was forced into doing what he did as a result of the poor working conditions which he and others supposedly had to endure Whether he should have gone public is a moot point We all know that washing ones dirty linen in public as well as it being losh is not a good idea especially where Israel is concerned especially in these difficult times As for the soldiers going on `trial`.This problem is a world wide phenomenon which the Israeli govt as well as I presume the Board of Deputies are very concerned with Shouldn`t the British Jews leave as well Well maybe they should but Aliyah is not the solution for everyone As far as SA is concened the Rebbe gave many brochas for Jews to live in SA Of course Israel is central to our lives but do we want an Israel where the supreme court of bullsh-s dictates that the Beth Din must give a hechsher to a missionary organization to open a `kosher` restaurant/s Feh! or one that is more in tune with Israel being a Jewish state Yes there are lots of things going pearshaped in the world Maybe the solution is to do more and more good deeds both to Jew and gentile and in that way hasten the coming of Mashiach speedily in our day

I'm sorry, but this post really misses the point. You're repeating yourself time and time again and most of it doesn't really seem to be based on anything.

Not all Jews see themselves as Jews. Some South Africans simply see themselves as South Africans. You've found a cause that is important to you, that's fine. That's great, even. But don't expect it to be important to everyone.

You know, even if someone's religion IS important to them, that doesn't mean that going out to the streets and speaking out for a country they don't live in is going to be anywhere near as important.

Stop whining. You chose to leave SA, no one forced you. If you want to talk to the government, send a fucking letter.

There are many aspects to the original message and the comments raised by Dov "Anon". I want to comment on the FAT CAT South Africans , unable to stand their ground as far as Israel is concerned.
Firstly Israel relies very heavily for funds from all the Satellite (Fat Cat) communities. Even if all the Jews emigrated to Israel joined the army and lived Misirash Nefesh , Israel would be far worse off and would need to become totally selfsupplying, which history has taught was never possible. So trhe FAT CATS are needede. However, complacency has no place in the Jewish framework as if we do not do for us, noene will! I take the point that we need to become more vocal and i for one will.
What we DO NOT need is self sabotage , and what J Garb did was in my opinion exactly that and he acted like a petulant child who did not get his candy and washed our (Jewish) laundry in public. A Chilul at best! We do not need to give ammunition to our detractors and deal with issues in public, especially when ALL the INTERNAL avenues have not been exhausted. This is not an excuse for or a defense of any alleged wrong doings on the part of El-Al but it is an indictment on those who would sabotage us from within!!

@ Dov-JHB While I agree that aliya is not for everybody - I did not imply that everyone should make aliya. Simply that those who choose to stay in the galut should feel a certain responsibility towards their own.

What is happening in South Africa is not an attack on Israel any less than it is an attack on Jews in general. The South African government has identified you as Jews first and South Africans second - your opinion, in their eyes, means nothing unless you make it mean something.

@Anonymous - How can my post miss the point when I am the one making the point?! Also, if you had rad the post, the danger is not in Israel, the danger is in South Africa - When you are being persecuted against because of your Jewish blood, will you think it is our responsibility to come and get you because you are Jewish? You my friend are the one who is clearly missing the point

By the way The B O Deputies engages with the govt all the time I am not by the way associated with them at all One thing I will say When the trade union movement and the Palestinian soliditary campaign and Ronnie The Red Kasrils demonstrated outside Sydenham shul awhile ago I was disappointed with both the community`s and my response I actually wanted to engage but stood on the sidelines shouting at the crowd who were half a block away The community did come out in force when we had a solidarity march from Yeshiva college but that was in our area You know what we are not chicken but we are also docile SA`s We are not used to large scale protests as they are in NY for eg

Ok.... Youre right, but please tell me one thing.... What is a zionist - not a south african zionist - a "real" zionist???

Someone who cares about Israel??
Someone who loves Israel??
Someone who makes aliya?

Perhaps I am missing the point??
