ADL, Under Pressure From Elon Musk, Issues Tepid Condemnation of Anti-White ‘Kill The Boer’ Song
After Twitter/X CEO Elon Musk called out the Anti-Defamation League for staying “silent” on a South African black party chanting for the “literal genocide” of whites, ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt issued a comically tepid condemnation of what he called the “crude lyrics” of their “historic protest song” which “could be interpreted as a call for violence.”
“ADL is focused on fighting the surge of global antisemitism, but we have observed the recent debate over the song ‘Kill the Boer,'” Greenblatt said in a statement released on Wednesday afternoon. “While it is a historic protest song that called for the dismantlement of the racist apartheid system in South Africa, its crude lyrics could be interpreted as a call for violence.”
“At a time of intensifying political tensions worldwide, we see time and again that words matter, and people, especially those in public life, should refrain from expressions that invoke the threat of violence,” he continued.
Greenblatt went on to condemn “baseless claims” of “white genocide” made by “right-wing extremists in the U.S., particularly white supremacists.”
“Such wild charges have been used to excuse hate, to justify harassment and to rationalize violence,” he insisted.
From ADL.org, “ADL Statement on ‘Kill the Boer’ “:
New York, NY, August 9, 2023 … ADL (the Anti-Defamation League) today issued a statement in response to the recent debate over the song, “Kill the Boer” and baseless claims of “white genocide” that have been made by right wing extremists, and particularly white supremacists, in the United States for years.
Jonathan Greenblatt, ADL CEO and National Director, issued the following statement:
ADL is focused on fighting the surge of global antisemitism, but we have observed the recent debate over the song “Kill the Boer.”
While it is a historic protest song that called for the dismantlement of the racist apartheid system in South Africa, its crude lyrics could be interpreted as a call for violence.
At a time of intensifying political tensions worldwide, we see time and again that words matter, and people, especially those in public life, should refrain from expressions that invoke the threat of violence. Such rhetoric can prompt real-world consequences. This is true in the physical world. This is true on social media, including X. It has no place.
At the same time, baseless claims of “white genocide” have been made by right-wing extremists in the U.S., particularly white supremacists, for years. Such wild charges have been used to excuse hate, to justify harassment and to rationalize violence. This is an issue ADL has tracked for decades – and we will continue to call it out. [Emphasis added]
No doubt the ADL would have a similarly nuanced take if EFF leader Julius Malema was chanting “Kill the Jews.”
Contrast Greenblatt’s lukewarm response in this case with the time in 2018 when he threatened the entire country of Iceland that if they dare to ban circumcision (male child genital mutilation) then the ADL will use their power over the media to destroy their tourism industry by smearing their island nation as being “associated with Nazism,” “even if that association is not justified.”
The ADL has pushed for mass censorship of the internet by claiming that Big Tech platforms allowing free speech is a form of violence but here an explicit call for genocide must be treated with the utmost nuance.
Of course, Greenblatt said nothing about deplatforming Malema, boycotting his party, or prosecuting him for hate speech — instead he just gave a generic suggestion for people in general to avoid talk that “could” possibly be interpreted as a call for violence (even if it’s actually about “dismantlement of the racist apartheid system”).

Incredible: After Celebrating An Actual Nazi In Parliament, Trudeau Complains About ‘Russian Propaganda’
“I think it’s going to be really important that all of us push back against Russian propaganda”
Despite the fact that he met with and then invited a former SS soldier into his parliament, where the 98-year-old Nazi was given a standing ovation, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau complained about “Russian propaganda” and “Russian disinformation” Monday.
Here’s the backstory from yesterday:
Trudeau was asked about the situation by reporters and commented, “Obviously it’s extremely upsetting that this happened,” before immediately blaming the Speaker of the House, noting “The speaker has acknowledged his mistake and has apologized. This is something that is deeply embarrassing to the Parliament of Canada and by extension to all Canadians, I think particularly of Jewish MPs and all members of the Jewish community across the country, celebrating, commemorating Yom Kippur today.”
He then pivoted to Russia, stating “I think it’s going to be really important that all of us push back against Russian propaganda, Russian disinformation and continue our steadfast and unequivocal support for Ukraine.”
Incredible.
Watch:
Opposition leader Pierre Poilievre told parliament that “Canadians are sick and tired of a prime minister who never takes responsibility for things that happen under his watch,” adding “he always finds someone else to throw under the bus,” and asking the Speaker of the House “are you that person?”
Poilievre demanded that Trudeau personally apologize, describing the situation as “an appalling error in judgment on the part of Justin Trudeau, whose personal protocol office is responsible for arranging and vetting all guests and programming for state visits of this kind.”
“It was impossible for any parliamentarian in the room (other than Mr. Trudeau) to know of this dark past,” Poilievre added of the SS veteran.
Meanwhile, comedian Rob Schneider hit out at Trudeau, and said he has cancelled his upcoming dates in Canada in protest:

Canada’s Speaker Of The House Apologises For Honoring An Actual Nazi
Whoops, sorry we gave a standing ovation to an SS soldier
The Canadian speaker of the House of Commons has issued an apology after he asked the entire Parliament to give a standing ovation last week to a 98 year old Nazi Waffen-SS soldier in the presence of the visiting Ukrainian President Zelensky.
Anthony Rota issued the apology Sunday, claiming that the decision to honor Yaroslav Hunka, a Ukrainian who fought with 14th “Galicia” division of the Waffen-SS in the Second World War, was entirely down to him.
“I wish to make clear that no one, including fellow parliamentarians and the Ukraine delegation, was aware of my intention or of my remarks before I delivered them,” Rota noted, adding “This initiative was entirely my own, the individual in question being from my riding and having been brought to my attention.”
“I particularly want to extend my deepest apologies to Jewish communities in Canada and around the world. I accept full responsibility for my actions,” Rota further stated.
Mistakenly honouring one of Hitler’s henchmen, hardly a common error is it.
As the chamber applauded, Zelensky punched the air while stood next to Canadian Prime Minster Justin Trudeau.
Rota fawned over Hunka, telling MPs that he is a “veteran from the Second World War who fought for Ukrainian independence against the Russians and continues to support the troops today even at his age of 98.”
Rota failed to mention the fact that Hunka is an actual Nazi who somehow walks free today.
Here’s how the guy ended up living a decent life in Canada:
Trudeau should also be held accountable, particularly given that he likes to throw around the word ‘Nazi’ when describing anyone he disagrees with.
