Anti-semitism is one of the most frequent allegations about people involved in the
9/11 Truth movement. Is it true? Are 9/11 truthers really anti-semites?
Well, prominent Rabbi Michael Lerner and other Jewish leaders are calling for 9/11 truth.
Indeed, Rabbi Lerner says that uncovering
the truth of 9/11 has the power to bring positive, lasting change to our nation and to our
world.
And some of the leading members of Scholars for 9/11 Truth are
Jewish.
As are some of the other prominent individuals
who have called for a deeper investigation into the events of 9/11.
Indeed, some of the most committed and hard-working 9/11 activists, such as Jon
Gold and many others, are Jewish.
So that must mean that these are "self-loathing" Jews, right? No, actually. I
know many of these people quite well, and they are wholly comfortable being Jewish. Many
are proud of their heritage and their faith.
In fact, the charges of anti-semitism are clearly illogical. For example, a book has been labelled as anti-semitic
even though its co-editor is Jewish and it
contains contributions from 4 Jewish writers.
While there are a very small number of people claiming that they are for 9/11 truth but
making anti-semitic remarks, they are shunned by the overwhelming majority of 9/11
truthers who abhor anti-semitism.
Given these facts, I would say this to anyone who claims that the 9/11 Truth movement is
anti-semitic:
