Al Bawabh News just published a long article that is a regurgitation of the standard antisemitic slanders, centered around the supposed influence of the Rothschild family who somehow never manage to make it to the top of the list of Forbes richest people.
The first paragraph says it all:
The Rothschild family is the oldest and largest Jewish family of the Jewish Khazars of German origin, owning 80% of the world’s wealth. The family is responsible for the creation of all economic crises, as well as political revolutions across the world in collaboration with Rockefeller and Morgan families as it is almost dominated all the central banks of each countries of the world with the exception of a few.
Each paragraph gets more absurd:
These three families have killed a number of American presidents, including President Abraham Lincoln and President William McKinney and President James Garfield and President John F. Kennedy and many members of Congress and the owners of the banks, to the degree that enabled them to provide the largest bribe in history in return for obtaining a sinister promise later named the Balfour Declaration! And all those who stand against these families are killed without pity or mercy.
The video that accompanies the story is narrated in Arabic but it is filled with graphics made by Internet antisemites making up bizarre stories like Adolf Hitler was the grandson of a Rothschild and quotes like this one:
This is what Egyptians are reading every day in their mainstream media.
And there is essentially nothing in their media that ever says otherwise.
But let’s talk some more about Islamophobia, because that is more “systemic.”
We have lots of ideas, but we need more resources to be even more effective. Please donate today to help get the message out and to help defend Israel.
