Farrakhan Demands Boodle Reparations from Jewish Organizations
2010-07-13
This is an offer asking you and the gentiles whom you influence to help me in the repair of my people from the damage that has been done by your ancestors to mine. This is a wonderful way of the present generation of Jews to escape the Judgment of Allah (God) by aiding in the repair of His people.

However, sbould you choose to make our struggle to civilize our people more difficult, then I respectfully warn you, in the Name of Allah (God) and His Messiah, Tbe Honorable Elijah

Muhammad, tbat tbe more you fight and oppose me rather than belp me to lift my people from their degraded state, Allah (God) and His Messiab will bring you and your people to disgrace and ruin and destroy your power and influence here and throughout the world.
[the letter is from June 2010 but only recently was made available by Danial Pipes on National Review Online.]
Mr. Pipes nicely evicerates the letter and illuminates the background to its sending.

#3  A Jewish organization should respond thusly:

Dear Louis Eugene Walcott (his Christian name),

In that your mother, Sarah Mae Manning, was from Saint Kitts and Nevis, and your father, Percival Clarke, was from Jamaica, we have forwarded you request to the British and French embassies.

However, that being said, we are more than happy to send a check to the amount of bupkus, that you may use to repair your defective and gutter religion, so that it may continue in its racist and misogynistic path, keeping your followers downtrodden, poor and ignorant, until they die out either in prison or from shooting each other.

May you buy a nice, used hotel, and in every room of that hotel may you have a heart attack.

Yours,

The Jews

#2  I should have noted that the spelling mistakes are because of the translation from .pdf. They were not in the original Farrakhan statement.

That is, even if he is a bigot and a bully and illogical, the letter was spellchecked.

#1  OK, let's examine the logic here.

So basically Farrakhan is saying that the jews (and, one assumes, anyone of jewish descent, even though not jewish) will be judged by what their ancestors did, but that the current generation of those Farrakhan considers his people aren't going to be judged for their lack of civilization and degraded state in the here and now.

(Yah, yah, you could argue that they're oppressed. I am going to argue right now that they're oppressed by having Farrakhan as a leader, telling them their current state of degradation is because of someone else instead of their choices in the here and now. And if "the Jews" are doing anything wrong, it's in going along with Farrakhan's damn "you're not responsible for your own actions" mantra, that his congregation really doesn't need to hear.)
