Introduction

On June 12, I wrote a small sarcastic essay called “KAPO – A Gallows Humor Joke.”  (It just gets worse.)  I neglected to give a proper definition of the term ‘KAPO.”

In Nazi concentration camps a KAPO was a special Jewish prisoner whose merciless brutality towards fellow Jews elevated his personal situation at their expense.  They made Waffen SS German (or Ukrainian) guards’ life easier and safer.  The slave labor concentration camps used until the ‘Final Solution’ of mass extermination beginning in 1943 produced useful products as minimally depicted in the movie “Schindler’s List.”  A slave ‘overseer’ in all human history was less brutal because killing a valuable slave would terminate their utility.  That limitation did not apply to KAPOs in Nazi concentration camps.

Part 1:  Personal History

Born in 1945, I never had much interest in politics, domestic or foreign, until the 1980s when I began to wake up.  To me the daily New York Times was almost exclusively a source of Sports News.

In the late 1970s, as a computer consultant, I shared an office for a few months with an Observant Jewish employee who spent the early morning hours studying the Times and bemoaning its coverage and editorializing as anti-Israel propaganda.  (He used to say that the biggest danger to Israel were the privileged Jews.  I did not understand that for years.)

[He had been born in a post-WW II ‘Displaced Persons Camp’ in 1947 of surviving Hungarian Jewish Parents. (They were probably two of the thousands saved by Raoul Wallenberg.)  The family made it to New York City surviving the Holocaust in an unusual westerly direction.  The Eastern European Jewish survivors, if they continued to survive, probably made it to Israel, first after forcible  detention in Cyprus, and thence to Israel in spite of British Military intervention by the new Socialist Labor Party Government efforts to pacify the original Racist Arab Supremacist Muslim Brotherhood leader, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem (Hussam al-Din Jarallah, 1884-1954).  (The 60-year old book and movie “Exodus” is a very accurate depiction of this.)]

My mother, born in 1919, died in 1998, came from an extraordinarily large family.  Her mother, my maternal grandmother, who I wrote about in a previous essay, was one of seventeen siblings of one father with two serially separate wives.  Four siblings made it to North America by the 1920s.  The rest all lived in post-WW I Poland with carloads of children.  They all perished in the Holocaust.

My mother had a strong sense of identity as a Jew – and no religious upbringing.  My 1958 Bar Mitzvah was an insincere ‘Reform Temple’ affair.  Within six months, I had even forgotten how to read Hebrew which I had been very good at for two years, albeit with zero comprehension.

My mother was a sincere and innocent Liberal Jew with only three serious rules or commandments for me, her only child.  [She had the humblest life possible, most especially compared to her two younger narcissistic and privileged siblings and her 1941-1948 equally Jewish husband who deserted her as soon as she was pregnant with me in early 1945.  Around the time of the 1948 legal divorce that he initiated, as I subsequently learned, he had come to my grandmother’s apartment where she had lived since he was in the Army earlier to take back my mother’s fancy engagement ring so he could give it to Wife #2.  (Her pregnancy had gotten him, at age 34, out of the Army – but I only knew him personally a dozen times from 1953 to 1958 when he took me on sales calls to a New York City customer for a couple of hours on Fridays after school.  He had also been tricked to show up at my 1958 Bar Mitzvah.)]

My mother’s three commandments were:  (1) ‘I don’t ever want to find out that you ever crossed a labor union picket line;’ (2) ‘ I don’t ever want to find out that you used a racial slur;’ and (3) ‘I don’t ever want to find out that you got into a fist fight – you run away.’  It would have broken her heart if I failed to finish college so I received my CCNY BS degree in chemistry in 1967.

She lived alone humbly for the last thirty years of her life in the Middle-Class Housing Development called Lincoln Towers right near Lincoln Center.  She never changed her sincere Liberal political beliefs at all but, in the last twenty years of her life, there were two modifications – performed with complete innocence.

Reading the New York Times daily, especially after her beloved New York Post went from Liberal Dorothy Schiff ownership to unacceptable Rupert Murdoch (then Conservative), she many times told me that she just could not understand why Israel was not ‘authorized’ to defend itself from the then Communist-Allied Racist Arab Supremacists.  [In subsequent years when I learned the truth, I could never get her to grasp that President Richard Nixon saved Israel in October 1973 with supplied NATO war planes flown in from Franco’s Spain during the Yom Kippur War.  A permanently secret credible truth I only learned of in the later 1980s.  (Richard Nixon and Joe McCarthy were the quintessential BAD American Politicians in her eyes forever.)]

She suffered from progressively worsening arthritis and could only occasionally ride a New York City bus to get around.  (Subway steps were impossible for her to navigate.)  Several unpleasant experiences with young black menacing males gave her the completely unconventional belief that, in December 1984, Bernard Goetz had every right to defend himself with a gun on a subway.  It was as incomprehensible to her that the New York Times got that adamantly wrong, the way they continued to get Israel adamantly wrong, and ever more so thereafter.

As a consequence of the months of television talk shows about the Goetz case, with young Curtis Sliwa and CORE (Congress of Racial Equality) Civil Rights Leader Roy Innes on one side versus William Kuntsler of the ACLU (and the National Lawyers Guild), she stopped trusting ACLU lawyer William Kuntsler.

(At the time, Kuntsler was usually accompanied by a young protégé that he was apparently grooming to be the World’s Greatest Racial Racketeer.)

(Any other Left-Wing Extremist ACLU lawyer was still trustworthy.  That was a huge change, but it never expanded.  When I would tell her the extreme Left-Wing would never allow violent crime to be controlled by the Rule of Law because every discussion was instantaneously transformed into a Racial Discrimination discussion, she would say reflexively that it was a ‘Gun Problem’ just like they do today.  At that point, I would say: “so you want Bernie Goetz to spend even more time in jail,” she would always stare into space until a new topic could be discussed.)

[After December 1984 and the Goetz case, never again did the EVIL SCUMBAG PRESS ever allow both of two sides to a criminal dispute between Black criminals and anyone else ever to be both heard by the public.  All such cases were instantaneously presented exclusively as a RACIST VIOLENCE STORY starting with the massive Howard Beach Racial Hoax within a year later.]

Part 2:  Today’s World and Today’s KAPOs

Today’s KAPOs are all either Left-Wing Extremists like the permanent political prototype Bernie Sanders, or completely subservient to Left-Wing Extremist organizational pressure and, therefore, conformist employers of their rhetoric (i.e., ‘Talking Points’) disseminated via the Evil Scumbag Press.

[THE DEMONSTRATED POLITICALLY ORGANIZED ANTI-SEMITIC MASS MURDER EVIL ON OCTOBER 7, 2023 HAVING LONG SINCE BEEN FORGOTTEN BECAUSE THE PICTURES OF THE ATROCITIES HAVE BEEN PERMANENTLY CENSORED IS NO LONGER RELEVANT – NOR WOULD SUCH RACIST ARAB SUPREMACIST EVIL EVER BE REQUIRED TO BE TOTALLY DESTROYED LIKE ANY OTHER EVIL PLAGUE SO AS TO SAVE WHAT IS LEFT OF CIVILIZATION.  OUT OF SIGHT; OUT OF MIND.]

First a little mandatory context – a little chronologically sequenced set of historical events in Israel.

1. On June 2, 2021, an election was held and, in record time, Naftali Bennett put together a government on June 13, 2021.
2. For whatever personal reason, he chose to leave office on June 30, 2022.
3. The next day, a Left-Wing Extremist career journalist who had formed his own party in April 2012, Yair Lapid took office and could barely wait to give away the northern half of Israeli off-shore gas reserves to Hezbollah-controlled Lebanon – all by himself – no legislative votes, nor public referendum.
4. The dictatorial actions of Lapid led to a snap election four months later on November 1, 2022, but, due to normal chaotic Israeli party politics, it took two months until the end of December 2022 for Bibi’s government to take power.

The organized Left-Wing Extremists led by Lapid spent many successful months disruptively ‘Protesting and Demonstrating’ against the Legislative restoration of actual government policy that had been progressively usurped, in stages, over two and a half decades by an ever-growing Left-Wing Totalitarian Judiciary.  This has yet to be achieved, because on October 7, 2023, Hamas changed the narrative of government policy to preventing Holocaust II, if possible.

Today’s nominee for KAPO of the month has been a Democrat Party New York City Congressman for well over three decades.  Unless I am confusing him with yet another Liberal Democrat New York City Jewish Congressman, my first observation of him was a CSPAN broadcast House Committee hearing to promote a pay raise for congressmen.  I thought it quite amusing when I watched.  Way back then, Ralph Nader, a big political hero to the Big Government Left-Wing crowd was yet to enter their doghouse as he did by running for President on the Green Party ticket in 2000 and, thereby, become one of the ‘fall guys’ for Al Gore’s defeat.  As a witness before the committee, his persistent questioning of the justification for government representatives to even further increase their salaries compared to the lowly American common citizen, led this particular careerist political clown to point out that, unlike Ralph Nader who had no family to support or other material life’s expenses, they had families to support and (egregiously) ever-growing college expenses for their (privileged) children.  This clown’s persistent, personal criticism of Nader led the Great Ralph Nader to repetitively say: “you are forcing me to retaliate.”  I found his future threat very funny to watch.

Skipping ahead to Wednesday, July 23, our KAPO of the month nominee, actually attended Bibi Netanyahu’s address to Congress unlike most of the Left-Wing Tribe and then rushed on to the Extremist Left-Wing MSNBC to trash the speech, the speaker and thereby the Jewish people.  He even had an innovative slander that I had never heard before.  He accused Bibi Netanyahu of ‘telling Qatar to arm Hamas before the (November 1, 2022) election.’

In his extensive Manhattan Congressional 12^th District, the biggest richest concentration of Liberal Professional Class Privileged Jews have a Temple on Fifth Avenue at 65-66 Street called TEMPLE EMANUEL.  They twice supported the Great Obama for President, invited him to speak therein, and probably still ‘kiss his a$$.’

(After October 7, 2023, Liberal Long-Term ACLU spokesman Lawyer Alan Dershowitz is forbidden to enter since he has come around to publicly recognizing the Atrocities of October 7, 2023 as memorably important and critically necessary to permanently correct.)

On that same Wednesday, July 23-24, even Temple Emanuel was defaced by a pro-HAMAS mob of menacing, intimidating criminals eternally labeled as ‘mostly-peaceful Protestors and Demonstrators’ by the Evil Scumbag Press, and totally immune from American Gestapo (FBI) law-enforcement.  I don’t know whether to laugh or cry at the irony.  [By the way, there is a sister Temple Emanuel in the gated Presidio in San Francisco where Nancy Pelosi (Schmucky Schumer’s boss) has her main residence among the super-rich.

My nominee for KAPO of the Month:  Congressman Jerrold Nadler.
