Just the term "blood libel" denotes a serious, violent wording or writing. One of the most heinous blood libels would be the accusation that Jews use actual Gentile blood for food and sacrifices. If that were true, it would violate every human dignity and every Kosher food preparation practice. But unfortunately, quite a few in the Middle East believe this blood libel.
But perhaps the biggest blood libel of the 21st Century has to do with the origins of 9/11. Some of the Middle Eastern kooks who believe the Jewish blood libel discussed above also believe the 9/11blood libel. But unfortunately, so does a small but very vocal element of the American Left.
The 9/11 blood libel basically states that the "evil" government of George W. Bush and his Israeli allies set up 9/11 as a way to justify any military action in the Middle East. The sickos who believe this nonsense consider the whole Bush administration to be beyond corrupt and guilty of "war crimes". Of course these sickos also discount the fact that there is a real, foreign, radical terrorist organization that is really responsible for the atrocities of 9/11. These terrorists were aiming at the White House and Capitol. They killed over 100 people at the Pentagon- that attack alone justified war. And of course there were 2800 people killed in what used to be the World Trade Center complex in New York. And one of the casualties of those attacks happened to be Barbara Olsen, the wife of Ted Olsen, whom the Democrats will never forgive because he was one of Bush's lawyers in Bush vs. Gore, the Florida recount case that went to the US Supreme Court that help tilt the election in Bush's favor. At the very least, if Bush had any remote thing to do with planning 9/11, Barbara Olsen would still be alive, wouldn't she? And why would the translators of that infamous Osama Bin Laden videotape from November 2001 mis-translate his elation on how much carnage there was because of those terrorist attacks?
The 9/11 blood libel and all who believe and promote such nonsense need to be permanently discredited. What are these kooks going to say if Jerusalem is leveled by a mushroom cloud or if the West Coast is irradiated by Chinese nuclear weapons? What are these kooks going to do if their political allies cave in on the Iraq war and Al Qaida responds with a dirty bomb in New York or Washington? And if this country is no longer free, why are they still in this country sprouting such nonsense?
A country cannot survive if too much of its population is opposed to its existence. These kooks have already poisoned the political climate against George W. Bush. If they win in November, civil war or governmental collapse could ensue.
