The Blood Libel Lives

It's gratifying to know that this is the land of freedom. Freedom to lie, slander, brainwash and spread filth that 'sane' society extirpates. I recently went to a gun show where, among the weapons, knives, replica fantasy swords, nazi and Japanese war memorabilia and countless guns in countless varieties, there were a few book vendors.

To their credit, all book vendors save one stayed on the relatively straight and narrow: military history, survival, care and feeding of weapons, historical fiction... the usual. One store had more "interesting" wares, including the book pictured above.

Blood libel has been one of the bugbears scaring the stupid, the blight-minded and those more willing to hate or blame the unknown than take responsibility for themselves and the vagaries of existence. Supposedly gone are the days where witches, spirits, or Jews are blamed for failing crops, dying or missing children, or the Plague.

But not gone here, in this small corner of the gun show, where any and all books are sold with equal equanimity: how to fake a drug test, how to get around sexual discrimination lawsuits, how Jews have killed Jewish children to make matzah, how to turn a hunting rifle into a sniper weapon, how to collect wild nuts and mushrooms to stay alive when the Jewish media take over the planet... It's all a melange of like flavors.

With bile and nightshade wrapped tightly around the dish.
