Israeli Leftist Demands Journalist Be Murdered for Mocking the Left

alonakimhiThe Israeli media have been buzzing about the delicious story of Tuvia Tenenbom and his expose of the shenanigans of the radical Left operating in the West Bank.  Tenenbom is a multilingual journalist and play-write. He is well known as the founder of the Jewish Theater in New York.  Passing himself off as a clueless leftist German reporter, he allowed himself to be hosted by various far-Leftist propaganda groups operating in the West Bank, supposedly “aiding” Palestinians.  He wrote his experiences up in a delightful book called “Catch the Jew,” in Hebrew only for now (but in the process of being translated into English).

Much of the stories concern the anti-Israel NGO calling itself “Rabbis for Human Rights” run by Arik Ascherman, who claims to have Reform synagogue “ordination” together with his wife.  Ascherman has long been a bit of a laughingstock but comes over in the book like the Fourth Stooge.  Arabs working for Ascherman took Tenenbom to see how IDF soldiers harass and shoot poor Palestinians but all they could find was a soldier relieving himself behind a bush.   Others took Tenenbom to Yad Vashem and explained to him that the entire Holocaust is a hoax that never happened.    Excerpts from the book and articles describing Tenenbom’s experiences have filled the Israeli media and web the past couple of weeks.   Israelis have not laughed so hard since the Hamas issued its battle song in Hebrew.

Well, now there is a new twist on this story.  It involves a well-known Israeli leftist named Alona Kimche.  She is an Israeli author, song writer, and actress.  She made the news a couple of years back when she composed a malicious song about Israeli soldiers, accusing them of sadistic mistreatment of “Palestinians.”  The Israeli army radio station decided not to play the song, upsetting the radical Left.  Here are a few excerpts from it:

Chorus: Learning to kill is a matter of a push
It begins with something small, then it comes easier

Patrolling all night in the Nablus casbah
Hey, what here is ours and what’s yours
The beginning is an experiment
A rifle butt banging on the door
Fearful children, a terrified family
Then a closure, there’s already danger
…They aren’t men or women
They’re only things and shadow
Learning to kill is a matter of routine.

…Learning cruelty is a matter of a push
It begins with something small, and then gets easier
Every boy is a man thirsting for conquests
Hands behind the head, feet spread apart
It’s a time of danger, a time of terror
A soldier who weakens isn’t worthy of mercy
Your cousin is like an animal
He’s used to seeing blood.
He doesn’t feel any pain
He’s not a human being.
A field uniform, a jock itch, fragility and routine.
The distance between stupidity and evil is short.
The land of Israel is ours and ours alone
Learning cruelty is a matter of habit.

The Left denounced the army radio’s refusal to play this jock itch song as “McCarthyism.”

Kimche is active in and was on the Knesset election slate of the tiny semi-Marxist Meretz party, expected to disappear from parliament after the next election.  She is active in various other leftist causes.

Kimche was not amused by Tenenbom’s showing up the Far Left as a gang of circus clowns.  As reported by various news media in Israel, on her Facebook page she issued a call for Tenenbom to be murdered.   She said he should be burned at the stake for his “crime” of mocking the Left, and she added that she knows some shadowy friends of hers in Lod who “would be happy to do the deed.”

The radical Left in Israel loves to whine about being victimized by the political Right.  Just this week there is a petition being circulated that denounces “acts of violence against leftists by rightists” in Israel during the recent Gaza military operations.  The petition refers to cases where communists, radical Arabs and others held anti-Israel solidarity-with-the-Hamas rallies, and passing by Israelis cursed at them and maybe threw some things at them.   Dozens of prominent leftists endorse and cheer on terrorist attacks against Israelis.  A number of leftist professors have openly demanded that rightists be murdered.  But the petitioners have no interest in any of that.

Now in Israel it is supposed to be against the law to call for someone to be murdered.  The problem is that leftists who openly call for people to be murdered are never prosecuted by the leftist Attorney General.  Non-leftists can be arrested and indicted for things like saying they think Jewish women should only date Jewish men, or for wearing a tee shirt that reads “Without Loyalty there Can be no Citizenship.”   A number of people have demanded that Kimche be indicted, but there is little chance of that happening.  Hers is protected speech in Israel, unlike that of  rabbis who write controversial books about halakhic principles.

    SNAFU. The Jews have always been their own worst enemy. They did not see fit to give themselves a bill of rights, no first amendment, no second. No private property at all. And they call themselves a free country. What a scam.

    • tickletik

      We have a bill of rights, it was handed to us by God Himself. The greatest legal constitutions have been based on it. And one day, very soon, when this secular farce has played itself out as being morally bankrupt in every way, we will re-establish that excellent document as the basis for freedom, ushering in the fourth commonwealth, and a new golden age of liberty for all humanity

      • Lightbringer

        From your keyboard to the Almighty’s “eyes”.

      LOL pardon me? Are you nuts?

  • wileyvet

    I know leftists have always sided with the enemy of freedom, but Israel is the only country that is singled out for elimination and the extermination of its people by her murderous Islamic neighbours. Yet Israeli leftists are actively siding with those that seek her destruction. What do these people think would happen to them, if the IDF ever lets down its guard? What fate would await the blond haired Ms. Kimche at the hands of a Muslim mob? Many of her countrymen have been indiscriminately slaughtered over the years by the very same people and culture she so enthusiastically endorses. Absolutely insane thinking. She can always go marry a Muslim man, and take up residence in Gaza or PA territory, after she renounces her Israeli citizenship if she feels so strongly about it. After all she seems like she would fit right in with the Muslims, calling for the death of someone who insults the left is akin to death for a blasphemer against Muhammad and the religion of peace.

    • Moa

      Like all Leftists, she is a child in her thinking.

      She doesn’t understand what is necessary to keep her safe.

      She doesn’t understand that the very people she vilifies work hard and suffer to give her the right to speak nonsense.

      She doesn’t understand how hard entrepreneurs must work to support the Big Government programs whose money she’d love to control.

      She doesn’t understand just how much she doesn’t understand.

      Unfortunately, as the looks of Leftist women fade they can no longer use their allure to get people to listen, and they become even more rabid and counter-factual in their rants.

      • tickletik

        She is a “child” because she has never had to grow up. Not once in her vicious little life has anyone held her accountable

        We should be protesting day and night outside the homes of the prime minister and the swinish attorney general. DEMANDING that these B*$7^RDS apply the LAW to these CRIMINALS.

        There is a law. It has been used by the so called “elite” to steal from us, keep us down, wreck our homes, terrorize our families, and tear apart our culture. For once, FOR ONCE. These ANIMALS should be held to the laws that THEY HAVE WRITTEN.

        And if they don’t – GREAT. Let’s show the country that this government is TOTALLY ILLEGITIMATE. That it is a FARCE and a SHOW. Let’s shove this matter into their faces, make them force them to drop the lie that they have any legitimacy as a ruling body over the people.

      • Pete

        Why are there so many ‘blonde’ pictures of Alona Kimche?

        She is brunette. I think she has issues. she would have been happier if she had been born Lebensborn. You would not be able to tell the difference in rhetoric.

        en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lebensborn

        • Pete

          When a woman, who is brunette, tries too hard to be blonde, there may be something wrong with her. She might be high maintenance or some other defect.

          • Waiting

            It most likely means there is something she wishes to change about herself, but cannot, so changes her hair because she can. It may be that something she is not even aware of is causing her to change the color, style, etc. because hair grows back and can be changed often. It may be that she had a friend who was naturally blond and she wishes to be like her friend. To call for someone to be murdered as she did, definitely says something about her degree of happiness or lack thereof.

          • Pete

            ” It may be that she had a friend who was naturally blond and she wishes to be like her friend. ”

            She is photogenic enough. She should be happy with her looks.

            She is ugly on the inside.

            I wish she would live in a commune or an actual Marxist country and grow up. Maybe she would be pretty through and through then.

            It is much less embarrassing to grow up now than in purgatory. Just saying.

          • Lassiefaire

            Maybe she would prefer to hide her beauty under a burka and be silenced by real oppressors.

          • Waiting

            Sure, anyone who wishes to murder as she has expressed it needs the change on the inside. Basically, that is what I was attempting to say. Unhappy people don’t always focus where the need is, but on what they can see physically. And one cannot be truly happy leaving our Creator’s standards behind.

          • GeorgeRomero

            Yes , Beauty is only skin deep , under the skin lies the real person , in this womans case , ugliness and misguided hate of her own heritage.She has a lot of baggage in her tiny little mind.

        • Painted Horse

          I would guess vanity. That pic is from 1991 at 25 she probably has some gray hairs that she wants to hide at 48. But I’m curious as to what’s up with the different name variations? She was born Kimhi according to wikipedia, spelled differently in other publications using Kimche and also Kimchi.

      • Giborei1967

        She is NOT Jewish. She sneaked into Israel under the cover of Russian Jewish refusenik Alia in the 1970′s. She is traitor, and should be deported.

    • tickletik

      They were happy enough when they thought they could successfully impose their religion on us. Now that their vile demented ideology has been rejected by the people, they are doing what spoiled narcissistic little children do best, stamping their feet, throwing a tantrum and breaking all their toys.

      They are garbage, not fit for society, and should be cast out like the morally diseased refuse that they are. But first they MUST be held accountable and prosecuted for EVERY SINGLE LAW THEY HAVE BROKEN

      • Surak1

        You are 100% right. I wish it would happen as you say. But it’s very unlikely. Do you remember President Bush coming to office in January 2001? All the keyboards in the West Wing had the “W” key broken off. Like a good Christian, Bush turned the other cheek and refused to prosecute these crimes. He refused to prosecute Sandy Berger for destroying critical documents about the growth of al-Qaeda pre-9/11 from the National Archives. He refused to prosecute Dana Priest and James Riesen for revealing how the US government was tracking al-Qaeda activities. Now, it’s considered racist to enforce America’s immigration laws.

        The Israeli government is similar. Incitement to murder by the left is fine. Individual nationalist MKs doing their job get investigated for years. The law must be enforced.

  • Hank Rearden

    Maybe the best thing to do is to write a song about Ms. Kimche. It might go this way…

    Chorus: Learning to kill is a matter of a push
    It begins with something small, then it comes easier

    He doesn’t feel any pain
    He’s not a human being.
    Learning cruelty is a matter of habit.

    You get the picture.

    “Others took Tenenbom to Yad Vashem and explained to him that the entire Holocaust is a hoax that never happened” – Steven Plaut.

    Leftist Jews denying the Holocaust? That really takes the cake.
    ‘Jewish Nazis’ may sound like an oxymoron, but methinks it aptly describes these self-hating nutjobs.

    • Ken Kelso

      The Holocaust denier Steven Plaut is talking about is a Palestinian.
      It turns about B’Tselem gets a lot of its information bashing Jews in the West Bank and its source is Palestinian Holocaust denier Atef Abu Arub.
      Atef Abu Arub is also is an advisor to Gideon Levy In his articles.
      How crazy is the left that their using a Holocaust denier as their source.

    Hopefully Alona Kimche will soon join ISIS as part of their ‘Get Gang Raped for Allah” program.

  • Pete

    Alona Kimche was born in Lvov, USSR and moved to Israel at age 6 in 1972. She is a Marxist by desire. She only used Any Jewish identity she might haver left as a foil to stab her enemies.

    Since she is not Jewish, she should have the courage of her convictions and live in a Marxist society and not a Jewish one.

  • Well Done

    So, apparently, Alona Kimche’s mind is as warped as her face. She looks like a cold, determined serial killer.

  • uleaveuswithnoalternative

    These people should remember what Muslims do to their friends.
    Just ask James Foley, Steven Sotloff and all of the other Leftists who decided to befriend the Arabs.

  • carpe diem 36

    If she were to be judged by her “poetry”, she is not only devoid of talent, but she is devoid of brain. She was indoctrinated really early in life and remained in that state of understanding. She did not grow up, she was apparently not allowed to, and did not do it on her own. She is not a danger to anyone, she is just pure embarrassment to the left. They should at the very least find someone with more intelligence as their representative.

  • Ken Kelso

    Steven, great article.
    I have another good article about this book by Tenenbom.

    Atef Abu Arub is also is an advisor to Gideon Levy In his articles.

      The term itself is a dead giveaway. It’s short for “The image of G-d” with which every person is endowed (until he ruins it, anyway). Whenever such phrases are used by people who don’t believe in G-d, or “images of G-d”, you know you’re in for a long evening.

      • Lightbringer

        Yup. That and the overuse of “tikkun olam” (healing the world) to mean instigating a leftist revolution or green radicalism or whatever, rather than its proper meaning of behaving in a Godly and moral manner.

  • billobillo54

    The left is trying real hard to destroy western civilization. The left actively supports Islamicists everywhere.

  • DontMessWithAmerica

    Lunatic, radical leftists in a big country such as the U.S., are harmful to the country but don’t have the power to totally destroy it (though they are coming close today) Such people, however, in a small and very vulnerable state such as Israel, surrounded by savages with but one goal, her destruction, are dangerous to the country’s survival and should be dealt with severely. They must be eliminated one way or another. Have them deported or introduce capital punishment, try them and then put them out of their misery.

    • Lightbringer

      Or at least put them out of the country. Let them live in Cuba or North Korea if they are so enamored of leftist ideology. Come to think of it, that might not be a bad idea for the US, too.

    It matters why a person alters their looks. Some people do it for innocuous reasons like they want a change. Some do it for a better reaction. People treat them better as a blonde. Other people change their looks because they are sick.

    IMO Alona is doing it because she is sick. It is not that debatable. It is my opinion. Time will tell if I am correct.

    To some extent her actions of calling for the murder of people has vindicated my position. A person does an expose of you or the groups you belong to, where your on words d_mn you and you reply is to call for murder?

    If i had a daughter and they wanted to change their hair color for years on end, I would suspect they were unhappy with their looks or their lot in life.

    I expect people to experiment with long hair, short hair hair coloring whatever. It is normal. I have been around that stuff my whole life. It pays the bills & I never said there was anything wrong with it. I have and other have criticised people, who try too hard at things like that. There was the example of the blonde who used a bottle of hair spray everyday. Her hair fell out. She was beautiful, she primped too much. she failed. If a black woman does the blonde thing too long I think she is trying too hard. Black is beautiful after all.

    BTW have you taken an psych courses?

  • Nanush

    About Arik Ascherman and his wife: Spouses do not always share political and religious ideologies. Their opinions are quite far apart, and growing more so.

    Alona Kimche “apologized” to the press for her use of violent language – but not to Tuvia.
    Of course, nobody took her threats seriously, nor her use of racist stereotypes about the Arab drug dealers from Lod, who she would hire to knock him off.
    As we all know – Leftists are incapable of violence.
