Anger At Newspaper Column That Blames ‘The Jew’ For Economic Troubles

Wilda Rodriguez’s piece in Puerto Rico daily El Nuevo Día is criticized as ‘practically the definition of antisemitism’

by Daniel Sugarman

The most widely read newspaper in Puerto Rico has been criticized for an article blaming “the Jew” for the island’s economic difficulties.

The piece by El Nuevo Día’s columnist Wilda Rodriguez published earlier this week was titled “What does ‘the Jew’ want with the colony?”

It suggested that the US Congress was under Jewish control and “will finally do what ‘the Jew’ wants, as they vulgarly call the prototype of true power.”

The Anti-Defamation League has published a protest letter it addressed to the newspaper’s editor, calling the column “a collection of classic anti-Semitic assertions.”

The letter said: “This is not the first time that confronted with an economic crisis Jews are accused of controlling the power and money. Wilma Rodriguez’s column published in your diary follows the worst legacies of anti-Semitic regimes that we would like to have left behind in the 20th century.

“Publishing an article accusing the Jewish people of controlling governments to the detriment of the future of Puerto Rico is practically the definition of antisemitism.”

The column also claimed Israelis proudly recognize “how the Jews control Washington.”

“For Israelis,” it says, “recognizing Jewish power over the United States is no offense. It is the victory of their diaspora.”

The Anti-Defamation League has published a protest letter it addressed to the newspaper’s editor, calling the column “a collection of classic anti-Semitic assertions.”

“Publishing an article accusing the Jewish people of controlling governments to the detriment of the future of Puerto Rico is practically the definition of antisemitism.”

The article is still available on El Nuevo Día’s website, with an added message at the beginning from the paper’s board saying “we want to be totally emphatic in that we do not promote content that can be interpreted as anti-Semitic, just as we do not promote content that sponsors hatred or discrimination based on gender, religion or racial ethnicity.”

An “explanatory note” from Ms Rodriguez has also been added to the article, saying: “I deeply regret that my writing has been interpreted as antisemitic. My path is clear. Prejudice and racial or religious hostility have never been part of it.

“I can understand the psychic reaction of some to the mere use of the Jewish word. But the intention is not to provoke offense, but to contribute to public discussion.”

Puerto Rico, which has been a US territory for 120 years, is still suffering from the after-effects of Hurricane Maria, which hit the island in September.

It has a Jewish community of around 1,500, with a Jewish Community Centre, Conservative and Reform congregations, and a Chabad.

Is there any truth to the claim?

For context, let’s take a look at AMERICA VANQUISHED, Part 1: America as an Israeli Colony HERE, (scroll down … title of the article is actually Netanyahu is the puppet master behind terrorist groups in Syria, including ISIS, whereby

Henry Kissinger tells author Michael Wolff, “It’s a war between the Jews and the non-Jews,”explaining there was a growing rift in the White House between former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and Jared and Ivanka Trump.

Another Zionist Quote of the day,

“We Jews Control America”

-Ariel Sharon

During an Israeli cabinet meeting (October 2001): Shimon Peres had been pressuring Ariel Sharon to respect American calls for a ceasefire, lest the Americans turn against Israel.

According to the BBC, a furious Sharon turned toward Peres, saying:

“EVERY TIME WE DO SOMETHING YOU TELL ME AMERICANS WILL DO THIS AND WILL DO THAT. I WANT TO TELL YOU SOMETHING VERY CLEAR, DON’T WORRY ABOUT AMERICAN PRESSURE ON ISRAEL. WE, THE JEWISH PEOPLE, CONTROL AMERICA, AND THE AMERICANS KNOW IT.”

Isn’t such colossal arrogance stunning?

You shouldn’t. Because It’s endorsed by the like of President Trump and 500 over Members of Congress you helped to place them in power. While your family is facing economic uncertainty, they are giving away $39 billion to Israel in military aid. Yes, that’s military aid alone.

Military aid for the world’s most powerful ILLEGAL NUCLEAR superpower

Illegal? Yes, Israel got nuke and the refused inspection by United Nation, because the US government will blindly veto any crime or wrongdoing for Israel, literally for no justification whatsoever (except maybe for pittance “reward’ to line your congressman’s pocket?).

Any other Nuke “New Kids On The Block” will be wiped out, eg. Iran and North Korea. So, why not Israel? They got enemy? Not that we are aware … Super nuke power like Israel is totally capable to wipe out any of the middle eastern country within hours, if not minutes.

So, ask yourself, why then do we need to fund the apartheid state whose military power is even stronger than US (in certain areas eg. Drone)?

Perhaps to they need your money to do this kind of “noble deed”: –
