Interview with Attorney Kenneth Ryesky on the rise of antisemitic  doctors and other professionals whose social media accounts call for violence against Jews and Israel. Should professional schools institute new vetting committees? Once upon a time, antisemitism was considered taboo like other forms of racism, but we are now in 2021, America has “returned to normalcy” as Joe Biden would put it, and antisemitism is not only on the rise, it is skyrocketing. To make matters worse, it is becoming very normalized thanks to the media, academia, the halls of Congress, and a perverted new movement called “woke-ism,” which together with a very determined and successful alliance with the “free Palestine” and Hamas caucus, have mainstreamed and normalized the most virulent form of Jew-hatred not seen since the 1930’s Europe. Antisemitism is no longer the domain of the David Duke’s of America, but has permeated every aspect of American life. In 2012, a medical student named Lara Kollab publicly stated her intent to inject dangerous drugs into Jewish patients. When this became public in 2018, our guest, Kenneth Ryesky, wrote a column in the Algemeiner titled, Hospitals and Schools Must Ensure That No Medical Professional Ever Uses Their Position to Harm Jews. For every one person like her who gets exposed, there are hundreds who are under the radar. Last week, a Phoenix-based doctor from a Children’s Hospital, named Fidaa Wishah tweeted that “Israel’s end is near.” One of the oldest binding documents in history isthe Hippocratic Oath that is held so sacred by physicians. It is accepted that those idealistic men and women who go into medicine, who swear to dedicate their lives to treat the ill are doing so because they are humanitarians of the highest degree. But, when it comes to a hater of Jews, the oath does not matter.   2 weeks ago in Philadelphia, an Israeli catering-truck business called Moshava Philly was disinvited to a food event organized by the city of brotherly love after allegedly receiving threats of violence if they are allowed to participate.  This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.
