על מנהיגות וטירוף: מבט לסיכום שנת תשפ"ה

קירק היה גזען, אדם מלא שנאה שחשב גם שהיהודים שולטים באמריקה.

קירק – תומך בהתקפות על פרופסורים, על קבוצות ויחידים, אדם שדבריו ומעשיו היו מלאים בשקרים.

וההערצה של כץ לטראמפ – גוואלט! אתה צריך למצוא כותב אמיתי, לא חבר במועדון המעריצים של טראמפ.

מי כתב את זה? זה לא מאמר ביקורתי אלא משהו שחסיד עיוור של טראמפ היה כותב. בבקשה תנו לנו עיתונות אמיתית ולא משהו מה"חדשות" של פוקס.

מגיב מארהב ביקש להוסיף את תגובתו כלהלן:

Dr. Katz,
I enjoyed your sarcasm in your Yekum Tarbut article about Trump and Kirk.
I laughed when you praised Trump's

'הבהירות החדה והבלתי מתנצלת שבה הוא פועל,'

when the man is all about 'shooting from the hip', changing positions and policies by the minute though he is clear about his desire to become dictator.
He is all about chaos and destruction- of Democracy, government programs that help people and the environment, dialogue, respect.
He is a sexual predator and thief, corrupt and greedy (the 400 million dollar 'gift'/bribe of a plane from the murderous Qatari government but one example).
If you like wannabe autocrats you should have chosen Trump's friends and models Orban and Putin.

Kirk was a racist and a man of hate. His friend Trump has also been demonising people for ever, calling his opponents 'vermain' and 'scum'

What Kirk really was about

https://www.thenation.com/article/society/charlie-kirk-assassination-tragedy/

He is now presented as a saint and by Netnayhu as a great supporter of Israel when in reality he was an anti-semite who said that "Jews control…the colleges, the nonprofits, the movies, Hollywood, all of it."
He also said "Jews have been some of the largest funders of cultural Marxist ideas and supporters of those ideas over the last 30 or 40 years."
He was also a Christian fundamentalist, of the kind that believes that once Jesus Christ returns, all who do not accept him as messiah and king are doomed to the fires of Hell, hardly a belief of a friend.

Furthermore, a few months ago a right-wing man murdered Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman and her husband and seriously injured state senator John Hoffman and his wife, all Democrats. No word from Trump about their murder and of course no lowering of the flags across the nation for them.

More important than the murder of Kirk were 'little' things like the rise of fascism in the USA, the abandonment of the Israeli hostages by their own government and by a large section of the israeli population and oh, that little matter of the genocide of Gaza civilans.
