Though I do hate the “Nazi” comparisons, the rising Antisemitism all over the world continues to give me limitless joy.

The Local:

A top Italian philosopher has sparked outrage in Israel and at home after saying that he would like to “shoot those bastard Zionists” and that Israel was “a bit worse than the Nazis”.

As violence escalates in Gaza, Gianni Vattimo also called on Europeans to club together to buy Hamas, the Palestinian militant Islamist organization, “better weapons”.

The former member of the European Parliament made the remarks on Italy’s Radio 24 but they were soon picked up by Israeli media, including Haaretz and i24 News.

In response to whether he would like to see more Israelis killed Vattimo, who co-edited a booked called Deconstructing Zionism. A Critique of Political Metaphysics, replied: “Of course! But unfortunately, I can’t really shoot”, due to being exempt from military service.

He also said Europeans should get together to fight along with Hamas, akin to the foreign volunteers who fought dictator Francisco Franco Bahamonde during the Spanish Civil War.

His comments sparked condemnation in Italy, with Renzo Gattegna, the leader of Italy’s Union of Jewish communities, saying in a statement that Vattimo’s words were “unacceptable” and “a mixture of the most heinous allegations” against Israel.

What happens is that the more public figures come out and say this stuff, the easier it becomes for others to do so.

What you are witnessing is the Jews losing their grip.
