• Around 2004, changes in technology created Web 2.0.[1] As technology adapted, so did online antisemitism. With the new "social web" came a new "social antisemitism." This Antisemitism 2.0 is the use of online social networking and content collaboration to share demonization, conspiracy theories, Holocaust denial, and classical antisemitic motifs with a view to creating social acceptability for such content.
• This phenomenon is spreading antisemitism and acceptability of antisemitism in new and increasingly effective ways. Social pressures are key to understanding Antisemitism 2.0, which is a combination of the technology and the emerging social environment.
• The main threat posed by Web 2.0 to the Jewish people and their supporters is the creation of a culture where antisemitism has social acceptability, particularly among young people, resulting in the lowering of resistance and the establishment of hate networks.
• To challenge Antisemitism 2.0, the Jewish community must as a strategy begin to engage online as an online community made up of individuals and organizations. The community has the talent to combat antisemitism online, but only if it is recognized, trained, funded, and given a shared sense of ownership in the fight against this newest manifestation of antisemitism.

Around 2004, changes in technology created Web 2.0, the social web where users, not publishers, create the content.[2] As technology adapted, so did online antisemitism. With the new "social web" came a new "social antisemitism," an Antisemitism 2.0. This phenomenon is spreading antisemitism and acceptability of antisemitism in new and increasingly effective ways.

As European liberals attempt to dismiss the vilification of Jews caused by the witting, systematic libel of Israel, typified by France2TV's Mohammed-al-Dura scandal, the Paris suburb of Bagneux produces yet another French anti-Semitic torture crime.

PARIS (EJP)---French officials voiced outrage Wednesday after it emerged a gang had locked up and attacked a Jewish youth in the same Paris suburb where Ilan Hamili was tortured to death two years ago.

Six youths from the southern Paris suburb of Bagneux, aged 17 to 25, are accused of locking up 19-year-old Mathieu Roumi in a storage room on February 22, beating and sexually tormenting him

Aged 17 to 25, the six youths -- who knew the victim -- had falsely accused him of stealing from them in order to lure him into a trap, judicial sources said.

"Sharia law is a a manifestation of clerical fascism," claims pundit Pat Condell. "It favors men over women which makes it a violation of civilized, democratic values."

The British public's surprising reaction to the Archbishop of Canterbury's pro-Sharia endorsement, Condell asserts, is the emergence of people's anger at not being allowed to express an honest opinion about the encroaching Islamicization of our society.

Rep. Myrick further lavishes deserving praise upon Major Coughlin’s thesis, "Major Coughlin’s thesis must be read by everyone responsible for ensuring the safety of America," for which we now learn he has been retained, and arguably even promoted, within the DOD.

But Congresswoman Myrick’s statement also evidences a curious if not disturbing cognitive dissonance about her expressed concern over jihadist "infiltration," when it comes to Hesham Islam.

Depty Secy England said of Hesham Islam, “Hesham has wonderful friendships and relationships, and therefore he can give me extraordinarily good advice in dealing with countries and people,” England said. “I take his advice, and I listen to him all the time.”

Depty Secretary England said he rarely disagrees with Islam’s guidance.

But a senior U.S. official says the life-story that Hesham Islam presented on his "resume didn't add up- and he knows it. He's voluntarily leaving the government in March."

As WND previously reported, FBI officials believe Islam is involved with the U.S. branch of the Muslim Brotherhood and is helping its front groups run "influence operations" against the U.S. government.

"He's a Muslim Brother(hood-ist)," an FBI official told WND. "He's a bad actor, and he's made other unreported nefarious contacts."

The Investigative Project's Steven Emerson comments in Family Security Matters "why the Muslim organizations Louay Safi (executive director of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) Leadership Development Center) refers to are considered questionable. It is documented facts like this.

Safi's organization, ISNA, is the first organization identified on the document's last page among "A list of our organizations and the organizations of our friends," by a secret Muslim Brotherhood committee created to advance the Hamas agenda in the United States.

And what is the committee's ultimate objective? See page 21 of the same document. Remember, these aren't some wild-eyed Neocon fantasies, but the words of the committee members themselves:

The Ikhwan [Muslim Brotherhood] must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and "sabotaging" its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions.

That helps explain why some people raise questions about outreach and partnership efforts by the departments of Defense, Justice and Homeland Security to a group like ISNA.
