Please support our work on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/redspinsportsPart II features a series of #ApartheidIsrael #NFL whitewashing videos produced by groups ranging from Christians United for Israel to NFL Films. The insidiousness of this alliance is not only on full display, but brought into focus with the critical analysis you won't find in mainstream (political or sports) media. Redspin Sports founder Nate Wallace co-hosts Part II of this two-part special with Max Blumenthal, Editor of The Grayzone (@TheGrayzoneNews) and co-host of the Moderate Rebels (@Moderate_Rebels) podcast, & the co-host of Redspin Sports Michael Sampson, an organizer with the Jacksonville (Florida) Community Action Committee (@JaxTakesAction), working to galvanize public support around the demand for Community Control of the Police.The context for the discussion stems from our incredulity at the way in which some of the most far-right elements of the Israel Lobby have exploited the situation Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Desean Jackson created, and then found himself in the midst of a firestorm as a result, earlier this month when he re-shared anti-Semitic words in an Instagram Story from a sermon delivered by the Nation of Islam's Louis Farrakhan.Far-right Israeli lobby & Bibi Netanyahu P.R. firm, From the Depths, has cynically deployed the MAGA Trump devotee and corrupt New Jersey real estate developer & multi-millionaire, Edward Mosberg, to play a central role in the reeducation and potential "reclamation" of the 33 year-old Jackson. The problem centers around what we've learned about Mosberg and From the Depths founder, Jonny Daniels. Jackson agreeing to be educated on anti-Semitism by From the Depths' frontman, Edward Mosberg, means he'll be learning a lot more about the importance of embracing political Zionism than he will about seriously combatting anti-Semitism. This is evidenced by Mosberg's unabashed praise for the racist politics of Trump and Netanyahu, and From the Depths' record of providing what amounts to Jewish political cover for far-right Eastern European heads of state like Hungarian President, Viktor Orban, and Polish President Andrzej Duda; both of whom benefit greatly from having their domestic anti-Semitism whitewashed by From the Depths thanks to their staunch for Israel on the international stage. In short, opposition to Israel's political Zionist ethnocracy is NOT analogous to anti-Semitism! However, as this Redspin Sports special illustrates, this fact will hardly stop Netanyahu and his From the Depths lackeys from doing all they can to portray the two as being one in the same.The discussion portion of the program was recorded on July 12th, 2020, and was published to YouTube on July 31st, 2020.
