(Jewish Group) Polish historian Ewa Kurek: Coronavirus is 'Jewfication' of Europe

According to Kurek, who began her academic career as a Holocaust historian and is now considered as a radical Catholic writer, COVID-19 is used to introduce “Jewish” values into “our Western Christian culture.” She claimed that in Spain, they are facing a shortage of ventilators and need to decide who gets to be treated and who isn’t, hinting that this is allegedly “Talmudic” logic and against the Catholic value of the sacredness of life.

No respectable media source reported that Spanish medical doctors are selecting which of their patients can be saved or not due to the virus outbreak. While Jewish scholars discussed medical ethics extensively – for example, it is allowed to stop a pregnancy if it is real danger to the life of the expecting mother – there is no Jewish understanding that only the young and healthy deserve to be treated. Catholic doctrine also allows for some flexibility in medical issues, making the argument into a misleading one.

Kurek went on to say that “Jewish-Fascist behavior” is now visible in Western Europe, which is controlled by “Jewish conglomerates.”

She also responded to the Israeli Embassy in Poland informing Israelis in the country that they have the option to return home by saying: “Who is a Zionist? A Jews who, for the money paid by another Jew, sends a third Jew to Israel.” This a well-known Jewish joke that, in this context, was used to suggest Zionism is a money-related scheme.

1. Virulent antisemitism is nothing new in Poland

While hundreds of years ago a Polish king welcomed Jews, (resulting in Poland having a relatively very large Jewish population) that welcome mat was hurriedly pulled back and, since that time Jews in Poland have lived in a very tenuous relationship with their Polish neighbors. This of course came to the forefront with the German invasion of Poland in 1939. It's no coincidence that all the Nazi extermination centers were located in Poland.

The old virus of antisemitism was never even close to being eradicated and now it's popping its ugly head up again in Europe, particularly in Hungary and Poland. This "former holocaust historian" is just preaching to the choir.
