The STAND Leagues crazies carry on as if their lies are not noticed.
Sockpuppet Norm Shannon just put forth a new plea to end anti-Semitism under the guise of explaining Rosh Hashanah.
He says: Hate crimes, according to the report, overall increased by 6 percent over the previous year with nearly 60 percent of the incidents targeting Jews and the Jewish community.
There is no question there has been a marked rise in hate directed at Jews. Far right groups have been stirring the anti-Semitic pot over recent years. Norm goes on to quote Jewish leaders and expresses his moral outrage that such terrible hatred towards Jews is tolerated.
Erm, Norm. Hold on a second.
Have you ever heard of that guy Louis Farrakhan and his sidekick Tony Muhammad? You know, the Tony Muhammad that is the IAS “Freedom Medal” winner and fundraiser/shill for scientology? The same guy who is featured on ScientologyTV as one of their “Voices for Humanity.”
These guys have been stirring the anti-Semitic hatred for years.
In case you are not familiar Norm, here’s an article that might help you direct your outrage to an ACTUAL source of anti-semitism rather than just a nebulous rant on a scientology website designed to trick people into believing scientology champions human rights and is not supportive of anti-Semites like Farrakhan and Muhammad.
An Update on the Anti-Semitics, Racist and Homophobic Statements by Tony Muhammad
Norm, to save you the trouble of having to actually watch any of his videos, here is a selection of quotes from “Minister” Muhammad:
“I’m going to show you how the Jews came to make sure that Black people never made no gains in America through jobs.”
“The serpent is the press, is the media, is the Jewish control. They’re lying. Lie, lie, lie, lie.”
“And I’m telling you the Jews do control the entertainment business. They control the banking. They control the athletics. They control basketball. They control baseball. They control it all. And, they control the drugs. They control the pimping. They control pedophilia. They control pornography. They control it all.”
Norm, if you are actually concerned about anti-Semitism, why don’t you write an article asking scientology leaders why they continue to support, and refuse to denounce, Farrakhan and Muhammad? That would be a far more effective action to take.
But then again, that would get you in deep trouble within the scientology bubble.
Maybe, if you actually LOOKED, you might realize that you would be better off outside that bubble,

O/T. I am for once deliberately making a comment on a day-old story.
I want to remind everyone that the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has a webpage devoted to Scientology Youth For Human Rights Award Winner Nation of Islam Brother Rizza Islam:
https://www.adl.org/resources/backgrounders/rizza-islam
/
Stefan says
Is there any idea to comment and or refer to for ex NOI on the STAND web site?
They have for ex that you can submit news etc or Report Hate Speech and Disinformation
Also do the same approach to NOI web site.
I understand though it probably is to no avail!
PeaceMaker says
The NOI is an ADL designated hate group for “deeply racist, antisemitic and anti-LGBT rhetoric” and their “theology of innate black superiority over whites.”

Their dear leader has his own history of very ugly antisemitic statements:
Farrakhan: In His Own Words

Len Zinberg says
On the one hand it’s quite diabolical the way that Scientology consciously FOMENTS and encourages anti-Semitism, by promoting, elevating, and bestowing awards, trophies, plaques, and heaps of praise upon such Scientology luminaries and public anti-Semites as Tony Muhammad and Rizza Islam.
On the other hand, what should we expect from an organization that has absolutely no moral or ethical guardrails?
It is also an unfortunate fact, sometimes overlooked, that influential groups like the Congressional Black Caucus and some Progressive politicians have, on occasion, embraced the Nation of Islam and Scientology. This may also factor into Miscavige’s thinking.
Geoff Levin says
The hypocrisy of the Scientology Jewish community is long standing. It’s ok to go through the ritual of Judaism but nothing else. No going to temple or mixing with WOG Jews. The treatment of some sea Org members would actually making the Nazi SS blush.
This guy Norm is so full of excrement. Scientology doesn’t give a flying f—k about prejudice toward other religions. They only care that they are protected as a “religious” entity, which in truth they are not.
Mike Rinder says
Great comment Geoff.
It really is nauseating to know how little they care and watch how loudly they shout that they do…
ISNOINews says
Geoff, what you say is largely consistent with what the Church of Scientology told the IRS in their application for tax-exempt status. As Mike noted, the church told the IRS:
https://www.mikerindersblog.org/can-scientologists-be-christians-or-jews-too/
* * * * * BEGIN EXCERPT * * * * *
Footnote 6: Although there is no policy or Scriptural mandate expressly requiring Scientologists to renounce other religious beliefs or membership in other churches, as a practical matter Scientologists are expected to and do become fully devoted to Scientology to the exclusion of other faiths. As Scientologists, they are required to look only to Scientology Scriptures for the answers to the fundamental questions of their existence and to seek enlightenment only from Scientology. Thus, a Scientologist who grew up in the Jewish faith who continues formal membership in his synagogue and attends services with his family violates no Scientology policy or tenet. On the other hand, such a person is not permitted to mix the practice of his former faith into his practice and understanding of Scientology so as to alter orthodox Scientology in any way.
* * * * * END EXCERPT * * * * *

Geoff Levin says
Yes, mixing practices is forbidden. As far as Scientology is concerned a Jewish scientologist should be on course 5 nights a week or all weekend. That doesn’t leave any time for going to temple or observing the Jewish holidays.
Mark Kamran says
Geoff written : “Scientology doesn’t give a flying f—k about prejudice toward other religions. They only care that they are protected as a “religious” entity, which in truth they are not.”
Excellent comment , cover the whole topic in one paragraph.
otherles says
Antisemitism in politics is the practical equivalent of a dead canary in a coal mine, I can’t say this often enough. Antisemitism is a subset of Racial Collectivism. We (Humanity) have to condemn all forms of Racial Collectivism. We have to see that Antisemitism is a symptom of a deeper philosophical problem. So when someone attacks Jews they’re attacking all of us. Rejection of Racial Collectivism shouldn’t be a radical idea. I’ve been called a “bigot” numerous times because I didn’t believe in a person’s orthodoxy.
Richard says
What “far right groups” have been stirring the anti-Semitic pot? As I recall it was the Obama administration which was opposing Israel at the United Nations and radical Dems in Congress recently making negative statements. No need to respond – it’s just part of the crazy politics – ugh
Mike Rinder says
I am assuming you are simply trying to turn this into a political issue just because it’s your hobby horse. There is no dispute that far right/neo-nazi organizations are antiSemitic by their very nature. Remember the guys with the tiki torches marching in Charlottesville? Political positions vis a vis Israel are not the same thing as espousing hatred towards Jews.
Keith says
Wait, are you trying to say that chanting “Jews will not replace us!” is anti-Semitic? 😂😂😂
Aquamarine says
Richard,
Eleven Jewish Americans, keeping the Sabbath in the Tree of Life Synagogue, murdered in cold blood in a matter of minutes by Far Righter Robert Bowers while he shouts, “All Jews must die.”
No need to respond – its just part of the crazy politics – ugh.
Richard says
My point, not well stated, is why single out “far right” or maybe by implication all “right/conservative/Republican” groups as being anti-Semitic? Anti-Semitism is certainly not confined to just that grouping.
Maybe I’m now Straw Man? Any political comment puts me on a hobby horse? Maybe that’s just internet communication or miscommunication. I’m just shrugging it off.
Aquamarine says
Perhaps “far right” groups get as you say “singled out” when it comes to anti-semitism because members of these groups are quite vocal about it and it appears that members of such groups act out their prejudice.
Marching with overt anti-Semitic banners, murdering Jews in cold blood in synagogues, right here is America – this sort of behavior garners a certain amount of negative attention, Richard, whereas other groups in America if they harbor anti-semitism as groups don’t appear to be as vocal about and negatively demonstrative of their Jew hatred – at least in this country.
For example the Nation of Islam preaches that Jews are evil but to my knowledge NOI members don’t act out their hatred of Jews. To my knowledge Farrakhan tells his flock NOT to commit violence against Jews. Not that I’m any kind of Farrakhan fan – I detest that man, but facts are facts.
And of course, Muslim extremists, jihadists, etc., hate the Jews too, but in this country, in America at least, they don’t murder them in cold blood.
The poor white uneducated Far Right types, though – whackos like these – well, they can and do go the distance, in this country, demonstrating their hatred.
Are there educated, liberal lefty progressive types who hate Jews? I’m sure there must be some. I suspect though, that Jews themselves don’t have much to fear from this particular anti-Semitic demographic.
Zee Moo says
$cientology and its PR has always been a ‘do as I say, not as I do’ sort of thing. I suppose if you can swallow all that PTS/SP stuff and The History Of Man, you can swallow Farrakhan and Tony Muhammad.

O/T. “Christian” Scientologist Joy Villa is a Scientology Minister or Minister-in-Training.
In her recent Scientology personal ad, Joy Villa says that she is a Scientology Class 4 Auditor on her Internship at the Johannesburg Org.
As set forth in: (a) the relevant Scientology HCOPLs and HCOBs in the current Minister’s Course pack (which I have read); and (b) the official Scientology website:
(1) The Scientology E-Meter used by Auditors is a “religious artifact” “for use only by a Scientology minister or Scientology minister in training.”
(2) An Auditor is a minister or minister in training of the Church of Scientology.
(3) All Auditors are required to be ordained ministers of the Church of Scientology.
(4) Likewise, it is a prerequisite to for permanent certification as an Auditor that to become an ordained minister in the Church of Scientology.

Cindy says
Why would Joy Villa do her internship at the Johannesburg Org when she lives in LA?
Mike Rinder says
Its cheaper.
ISNOINews says
Also, while I didn’t cross-post it here because it seemed “gossipy,” Joy Villa recently got a new 2D in South Africa . (He is from India.) I wonder if she met him online and then traveled to South Africa to see him… and, if so, who paid her expenses.

A brief google search on Joy Villa answered some questions I had about this woman. In her late teens and early twenties she not only did porn but bondage porn. There are photos of her doing bondage porn that are literally gruesome, with her bound up in some sort of rubber rope and covered with blood, as if she had been whipped. Whipped on her face too, her face streaked with blood. Incredibly degrading. Of course, its fake blood but nonetheless these photos were shocking – to me, anyway. Because looking at them I realized that this is done because it turns some people on sexually. I analytically knew that before but looking at her in these photos, smiling and bound up with blood dripping off of her face and body…I just GOT that some people would find this horribleness – sexy, a turn on.
But to the point with regard to Joy Villa – doing this sort of work was how she supported herself. She’s a Fillipina girl. Very likely grew up dirt poor in that country. And somehow she gets to this country. Its not much of a stretch that she was probably a sex worker as well.
I don’t have proof of that by the way. its just my opinion. But I’d say that anyone ok with posing for photos like the gruesome ones I saw along with all the other types of porn shots, would also not be averse to picking up a few bucks by having sex – any kind of sex with – whomever. Again, just my opinion.
I used to loathe this woman but I don’t any more. Now I pity her. I really do.
The cult has to know all this about her. The kompromat they have on her has to be enormous. She is their creature. She’ll do whatever they tell her to do. She is thoroughly owned by them. Sad. And doI mean that. I’m not being sarcastic. It is very sad. She is utterly in their power.
Linear13 says
Believe it or not Joy grew up here in the US. There is no telling what lies she has propagated across the net. Here is a link at the Bunker about her past and history BEFORE the got bit by the $ci bug. Her last name supposed to be pronounced ‘vill-uh’ not the Spanish ‘vi-ya’…that is how her Italian father pronounced it since it is of Italian origin. She’s a fake through and through and will do ANYTHING for money and fame.

Wow. Wow wow wow. I read the article and many of the comments. Thank you. Have to mentally reprocess now.
