Kosher Aristotle and the Shoa Survivor Roman Polanski

By Gilad Atzmon

ccun.org, November 14, 2009


Here is a glimpse into the surreal world of Judeo-ethics. It is also an exceptional example of lame Jewish logic.

The French Jewish ‘philosopher’ Bernard-Henri Lévy is convinced that Roman Polanski should be freed from jail. Polanski was  recently arrested in Switzerland for having unlawful sex with a 13-year-oldgirl in 1977.  Lévy thinks that Polanski should evade justice, you want to know why? Easy, because he is a ‘Holocaust survivor’.

Here is an extract from Lévy’s celebrity petition (1):

“Seventy-six years old, a survivor of Nazism and of Stalinist persecutions in Poland, Roman Polanski risks spending the rest of his life in jail for deeds which would be beyond the statute-of-limitations in Europe.”

Following Bernard-Henri Lévy’s reasoning, survivors are beyond justice. They should never be jailed for the ‘rest of their life’, not even for unlawful sex with a minor. This sickening and morbid logic explains Israeli barbarism and Jewish collective support of Israeli war crimes. At the end of the day, too many Jews tend to regard themselves as a collective of survivors. Accordingly, in their eyes, they are indeed beyond the law.

I use this opportunity to call the artists who were foolish enough (2) to sign this unethical petition to follow actress, Emma Thompson and withdraw their names immediately.  Being a Holocaust survivor doesn’t
buy a legitimacy for unlawful conduct: neither rape nor genocide.
