#Pizzagate Resurfaces an Old Anti-Semitic Slander
The underpinnings of the baby’s blood allegations will be horrifyingly familiar to Jews who grew up hearing about it from family members who escaped European pogroms. “The ‘blood libel’ refers to a centuries-old false allegation that Jews murder Christians—especially Christian children—to use their blood for ritual purposes, such as an ingredient in the baking of Passover matzah (unleavened bread),” according to the Anti-Defamation League. “It is also sometimes called the ‘ritual murder charge.’
The blood libel dates back to the Middle Ages and has persisted despite Jewish denials and official repudiations by the Catholic Church and many secular authorities. Blood libels have frequently led to mob violence and pogroms, and have occasionally led to the decimation of entire Jewish communities.”
Trumpen American laps this stuff up, just like European peasants did from the Middle Ages onward. Their credulity could be a testament to the failure of American public education and the absence of a mental health safety net. In the hive mind of the American conservative underworld, the old blood libel has found new, 21st-century targets—leftists, feminists and, yes, urban Jews.
