Jewish Unease Towards Mass Immigration From Islamic Countries Spreads Left

January 5, 2009   Immigration, Jewish Community

For a long-time in the mainstream Jewish community, it seemed only Stephen Steinlight was brave enough to publicly declare it wasn't in the Jewish community's interest to support mass immigration from Islamic countries. (In fact, Steinlight went further, questioning the wisdom of accepting mass immigration from Mexico, because he is a fearless and principled man, who treasures his country and his community more than being popular).

Well...it's over seven years later, and finally the hawkish Left is coming round.

Marty Peretz writes on TNR,

    As it happens, jihadism has less deadly manifestations than murder. As the Ku Klux Klan had less deadly manifestations than lynching. This morning I watched a frightening episode in the public life of America. It was a demonstration by, say, 200 Muslim immigrants in Fort Lauderdale against the Israeli air strikes over Gaza. Now, the first amendment protects such demos, and I would not for a moment want to curb them. But I ask each of you to pay attention to the details of what was being shouted. Especially by the young women screaming, "Jews to the ovens." No jihad in America, huh? Do we want such immigrants in our country? Well, John, do we?

Most Jews on the social Left will continue to denounce our concerns as "fascist" and "racist" and will continue to give space-cadet reasons why we shouldn't be concerned AT ALL about little inconveniences like terrorism, harassment, and a loss of power from say, an additional ten million religious Muslims immigrating to the U.S.

But they aren't who we need to convince. We need to convince the likes of Rabbi Yoffie, The Forward, Zionists who should really, really know better, and the AJC. And getting a nod from a TNR macher is a solid step in the right direction.

As for the Muslim immigrant masses themselves, well...they'll always have Paris.

We really don't need more of this shit.
