Arutz Sheva, an Internet based news outlet in Israel, reported on Friday the existence of anti-Semitic content at the liberal website Daily Kos (h/t Little Green Footballs, emphasis added throughout):
The Daily Kos blog, one of the most popular American political websites, is featuring anti-Semitic graphic content since Thursday. The Daily Kos reportedly receives 600,000 visits a day, and between 14 million and 24 million visits per month. It is often used by politicians – including Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama and many others – for dissemination of their materials.
The article continued:
The content is featured in a 'diary' by one of the site's contributors, a Belgian graphic artist. It shows a composite of Minister Avigdor Lieberman's face and Adolf Hitler's face holding a skull painted with a Star of David, under the caption "Zionism was and remains a racist ideology."
As Charles at LGF noted, the picture and diary are still available at DK.
How disgraceful.
Please be advised that despite the atrocious content, the picture in question has been included here for posterity’s sake just in case the folks at DK do finally remove it, and deny it ever having been posted.

April 6, 2007 - 14:22 ET by Roger the ShrubberDear Mr. Sheppard,
I must protest. I see no resemblence whatsoever between the face in that picture and the facial features of Herr Hitler. And no, those aren't ovens you saw at the Worker's Camp outside of Buchenwald.

April 6, 2007 - 14:34 ET by Gat New YorkEven though they have some bloggers who are Jewish, Kos is himself an anti-Semite and has a history of posting similar anti-Israel and anti-Jewish propaganda. This is horrific and even more so because the cartoonist I believe is Jewish himself. Prior to the outbreak of World War II there were many Jews who rather than have to courage to confront Hitler and anti-Semitism around the world and in the U.S. chose to capitulate and appease their attackers.
Very much the same thing is happening now. There is growing anti-Semitism here and abroad. Why confront the fascist Islamists when it is safer to join them and blame the Jews. What makes it worse is the growing number of Jews who are joining them and turning their backs on Israel. The cartoonist is among them.

Very true, that. The most vile of the judenrat are still among us. And they will be the same syncophants to the Islamofascists as were their predecessors were to the Nazis.

April 6, 2007 - 14:43 ET by PeterDWhy is anyone surprised? The Left are the biggest collection of hyprocrites ever assembled. They lie. They cheat. They smear. They will use all kinds of racists rants and its ok, because they're doing it. But at the same time they will throw the name Ann Coulter around all day as an example of a conservative who need to be targeted for making "vile" statements.

April 6, 2007 - 15:10 ET by Guy Arthur ThomasI am just waiting for Balbozo (balboa for those who have just joined us or regulars too stupid to make the connection) to show up and and defend this vile crap and Free Stinker to eagerly jump to balbozo's defense and then Bumbler (tumbler for those who have just joined us and no regular is too stupid to make the connection here) jump in and some how produce a rant about anti-Latino racism.
Shut up and blog! If you claim to be a conservative, please don't disgrace yourself and conservatism by thinking and arguing like a liberal. Go Rudy!

Travel to any blog on the internet.

My Uncle took a picture of a group of prisoners sometime after his unit shutdown a Nazi concentration camp in WW2. More than one prisoner you could actually his the outlines of his ribs they were so malnourished. It truly disturbs me at times that they are people out there with so much hate in them that they will spread lies just so they can make their political point in this case the holocaust did not happen etc. So much for the tolerant left.

April 6, 2007 - 23:36 ET by Noel SheppardKevin,
Congratulations. You've just posted one of the most inane and absurd comments ever published at this website since its inception more than 20 months ago. You should be very proud.
After all, using the facile definition you presented for "nutpicking":
With this in mind, I didn't sift through such at all. Did you miss the fact that this piece was about an article posted at an Israeli website? I must say that even with the deplorable level of reading comprehension we witness here at this website on a regular basis from your ilk, this might actually be the worst to date.
Once again, you must be very proud.
Furthermore, did you happen to notice that what the Israeli organization reported on was a diary posted at DKos, and not something from the comments section, or is this beyond the scope of your intellectual capacity?
Moreover, did you notice the title of the diary in question? Think it took at lot of "nutpicking" to identify the obviously offensive nature? Or, is it safe for our readers to assume that given your displeasure with this diary being so criticized by the various entities in question that you quite agree with its contents? After all, why would you go to such great lengths to defend it unless you sided with the despicable views presented by the author?
Regardless, please don't expect any further response from me, for you have quite adeptly demonstrated -- in one of the fastest times yet for a member here -- what your disgraceful beliefs are, and I have absolutely no desire to interact any further with someone as racist as yourself.
In fact, just this small amount of contact with someone so low on the food chain requires me to wash both my hands and my keyboard with industrial strength disinfectant. Alas, I sincerely hope that will be enough to scrub away any remnants of you. ns

April 7, 2007 - 12:27 ET by Kevin from the North ShoreNoel--
Fascinating. I'll concede the definition of "nutpicking" is specific to comments. However, anyone -- you, me, Charles Johnson, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad -- can post a diary on Daily Kos without the approval (or even knowledge) of Kos and the front page editors.
(Had the linked diary been on the front page, I'd be in full agreement with your point.)
Instead, not only has the diary been rightly criticized by yourself, LGF and the original Israeli organization -- but also by the Daily Kos community as evidenced by that diary's "Troll Diary" tag and high ratings for comments disagreeing with its subject matter and finally banning of the author by the editors.
Since we all agree that the content and images are vile, tell me again how this reflects negatively on Daily Kos? That is closer to what Kevin Drum was getting at in his original post. (This community's bizarre assumption that I supported the diary in question being just gravy.)
Your kneejerk reaction to thi
April 7, 2007 - 15:26 ET by Roger the ShrubberYour kneejerk reaction to this thread was proof enough for me that you endorsed that piece-of-sh*t picture that appeared on the KOS. You could have condemned it outright, but noooooooo, you only did it after KOS took the picture down.
Nice try with the "poor poor Daily KOS!" routine, too, since it took, what, 6-7 hours before they removed the diary in question?
Face it, Sparky. KOS f-ed up, and you look like a complete tool for jumping to their defense (which is exactly what you did).

April 7, 2007 - 07:32 ET by Andrew H.The KOS kids are... kids. They're taking positions unmindful of the consequences should their view of the world prevail they know nothing about. Were they not so silly and stupid they'd be dangerous.
Um, silliness and stupidity are dangerous. I stand corrected.
Liberalism is a convenient lie.
Wahhh!!
April 7, 2007 - 15:14 ET by thefirststrikeOr...it could be a fine example of attentive and concerned bloggers and regular citizens bringing to the attention of the rest of us various racist and hateful content that we would not see otherwise. Regardless, it is clear that this particular piece of material, posted at the left wing Daily Kos, is the type of CRAP that, if posted here or at any conservative website, would bring the liberal hounds of hell barking and salivating at our doors, screaming for our deaths. Just because it happens to have been posted at a liberal website does not make it any less vile or of less concern.
In fact, I would argue that is makes it MORE IMPORTANT, because it highlights the fact that, despite their protestations to the contrary, liberals are NOT the fair, open-minded, anti-racist, diversity loving people they claim to be. Otherwise, they would neither post garbage such as this (Kos), nor would they (the bloggers amd readers of the Kos) tolerate the posting of it on their favorite website. Bloggers at Kos should be outraged over this!!!

It amazes and still stuns me
April 7, 2007 - 09:34 ET by kathleenirishIt amazes and still stuns me that after all the complete nightmares millions have suffered and been anniliated by in the last century, especially when it comes to communism and Nazism, the Holocaust and the genocides, the Cold War...the Left is still ready to jump to the defense of evil. The real war is with these forces of hate. When my breath is sucked away when I read the vitriol and vomit of websites like Kos. They have learned nothing. Nothing. I can only conclude...the Loony Left is about hating humanity, when it comes down to it.
God Bless Everyone at Newsbusters for Passover and Easter.
