Elder of Ziyon
No one seems very concerned that he is a Jew-hater.
He has said that Jews immigrated to America, took over its entire economy, and now control the entire world.
Hawass wrote in 2009, "The concept of killing women, children, and elderly people.... seems to run in the blood of the Jews of Palestine" and that "the only thing that the Jews have learned from history is methods of tyranny and torment—so much so that they have become artists in this field."
"When I speak of the Jewish faith, I do not mean their [original] faith, but the faith that they forged and contaminated with their poison, which is aimed against all of mankind," he added.
This distinguished academic also claims that the Tomb of the Patriarchs in Hebron, and Rachel's Tomb in Bethlehem, have nothing to do with Judaism.
Hawass has repeatedly rejected the idea of a museum of Egyptian Jewish history, similar to a museum of Coptic history in Egypt, saying, "How can we have a Jewish museum for the occupiers of Palestine?"\
If an avowed racist was to lecture in the US on any topic, there would be an uproar. But a Jew-hater, who happily spreads the most vile conspiracy theories about Jews?
Not a word of protest.
What would it take to get Jews to protest this lecture series?
This has nothing to do with Zionism - his comments are antisemitic no matter what definition you choose to subscribe to.
But will liberal Jews write letters and picket his lectures? Will the media cover his history of antisemitism when they report on his lectures?
What will it take for people who claim to care about antisemitism to act like it?
