Following Republican Playbook, German Conservatism Breaks the Post-WWII Taboo

By Annika Brockschmidt

…ng to racist grievances (like the infamous “Kinder statt Inder”—“Kids, not Indians”—quote by Jürgen Rüttgers in 2000) and has long echoed the AfD’s racist, anti-immigrant rhetoric. Merz’s endorsement of collaborating with a fascist party on the local level may have seemed to him like the logical step in normalizing far-right views—but he misjudged the situation. Only four years ago, communal CDU politician Walther Lübcke, who had refused to adopt…

Palin Cries ‘Blood Libel’: Can Words Harm Us?

By Susannah Heschel

…eace and prosperity for all, not just for ourselves. Palin’s insistence on freedom seems to suggest freedom for oneself, without assuming any responsibility for others; a perspective that would create a wild realm in which each person looks out for herself, not for the collective. Yet again, that is not the message of the Bible. When God points out immoral behavior, it is of the collective people, not individuals. The prophet Amos condemns the cri…

Broken Courts, Big Lies and Genocide Rehearsal: A Review of 2022—And What We Can Expect From 2023

By Annika Brockschmidt

…the US, Canadian, and Australian boarding schools that sought to “kill the Indian, [and] save the man.” Once it becomes acceptable for one group of people to be criminalized for expressing their identity, then society becomes vulnerable to the genocidal targeting of other groups as well. In fact, anti-trans initiatives are closely tied to assaults on the rights of women, people of color, minority religious communities, and immigrants in the US and…

Forget “Nasty,” Trump’s Got a “Disgusting” Problem

By Karen E. Park

…issed a leper he met on the road. St. Catherine of Siena, St. Elizabeth of Hungary and many other saints cared for the sick, those who were too disgusting to touch, and brought themselves into intimate contact with the physical realities of infection and cancer. They understood that disgust for human beings has no place in the Christian life. Donald Trump seems to live in a near permanent state of disgust. He finds not only the human body but huma…

‘America First’ and the Origin of the Modern Jewish Conspiracy

By Eric C. Miller

…e use phrases like America First in the United States, Christian Nation in Hungary, or phrases like “cosmopolitan forces,” they are invoking language that has a long-standing relationship with racism and with anti-Semitism. So the first step is recognizing that. The second thing is to realize that these ideas have always expressed anxiety about the security of borders, fears about migration, loss of national and cultural sovereignty, and that thes…

In Sexual Abuse Hearing UN Calls Holy See on Girls’ Reproductive Rights

By Angela Bonavoglia

…hat “abortion is even more serious.” Soon after, another committee member, Hungary’s Maria Herczog, brought up a situation from Nicaragua, where the Catholic Church vigorously supports a ban on all abortions. The situation involved “a ten-year-old girl forced to give birth after being raped, with the full support of the Catholic Church and the local community. How do we challenge these unbearable situations in the name of the church?” she asked. A…

Politics in a Time of Crisis: Sandy? Blame Socialism

By Haroon Moghul

…the advertisement historically absurd—the U.S. is not a client state like Hungary was during the Cold War—the advertisement was also contextually absurd. If there is one thing people need during a national disaster, it is functioning and effective government. If there is one time we need redistributive justice, it is during a crisis. Much of politics perhaps just comes down to what is, and is not, a crisis—a hurricane I hope we can all agree on….

You’re Either Committing Ethnic Cleansing or You’re Not

By Haroon Moghul

…le and places. Jolie used regional actors, and the dialogue is in Bosnian. Hungary, where the film was shot, is a near approximation of Bosnia, though it subtly lacks in local color and feel (too much Austro-Hungarian and not enough Ottoman). But it is the intention here that matters, and such quibbles are minor. The bigger problem is that Blood and Honey seems to be several movies, few of which fit together, or even know what to do with each othe…

Killing For Religion, Not God

By Haroon Moghul

…tandard of living decline and social safety net fray, for the sake of visa-free travel conveniences and the privilege of more centralized banking. Don’t Trust Immigration (Islam), and Don’t Trust Marxism (Judaism) While in Bosnia, I was driven past Sarajevo’s historic National Library, which was deliberately torched during the 1990s war. Centuries of history were erased, part of a larger campaign to deny the historical existence—as well as biologi…

The Week in Religion, Poetically:

By Michael J. Altman

…ay where you can bid on a booty enhancement spell from a Wiccan. $8.95 and free shipping. Julia Roberts will no longer talk about religion. Thank you. Roberts said she remembered her mother’s wise words: “You’re an actor, act. Don’ at talk about politics or religion.” Roberts apparently converted to Hinduism during the shooting of her latest film, Eat, Pray, Love. Catholic Church leaders have given the film a thumbs down because Roberts’ character…
