As we know, Jews are threatened by cohesive, patriotic nationalism, and for a good reason. After all, they were amongst the prime victims of such an ideology. <\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\" lang=\"EN-US\">Bizarrely enough, dazzled by the emerging false prophecy of post-68 \u2018identity politics,\u2019 the Left was quick to drop its universal ethos. While in the past it aimed to cross the divide and unite the working people, the post-68 Left actually split and ghettoized the Western subjects by means of identification. <\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\" lang=\"EN-US\">Instead of being and celebrating who and what we are, we\u2019ve learned to identify with ready-made soundbites. Rather than simply being Jill, Joseph, Abe or Youssef, we are now identified \u2018as a woman\u2019,\u00a0\u2018as a gay\u2019, \u2018as a Jew\u2019,\u00a0\u2018as a Muslim\u2019, and so on. In practice, the New Left has been erecting walls around us in an attempt to separate us into infinitesimally small, marginal identity groups. Peculiarly, it is the post-68 Left, rather than the capitalists, that drove us into segregation, isolation and political paralysis. <\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\" lang=\"EN-US\">But then, pretty much out of the blue, Dieudonn\u00e9, a black French comedian, has managed to re-unite the working people: the migrant communities, the Black, the Muslim, the North African as well as the White proletarian and at the same time, to deliver a universal message.<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\" lang=\"EN-US\">Dieudonn\u00e9 has reminded us what the Left stood for in the first place, before it was conquered by Marcuse and his Frankfurt Yeshiva\u2019s pals.\u00a0 It is the French entertainer who brings to light the most instinctive Left insight &#8212;\u00a0we are actually united and identified in opposition to our oppressors, namely, the establishment. <\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\" lang=\"EN-US\">The \u2018quenelle\u2019 &#8212; a salute that was initially introduced by Dieudonn\u00e9 &#8212; embodies a modest and graceful openness of true resistance. It is a simple, restrained and poetic take on the crude Anglo-American \u2018up yours\u2019. The gesture is obviously universal and an open call &#8212; everyone, including Jews, are welcome in, as opposed to the post-68 identity discourses that are largely defined by biology and race. Being an emblem of an ethically driven and universalist standpoint the quenelle also symbolizes an opposition to the primacy of Jewish suffering and the tyranny of political correctness. <\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\" lang=\"EN-US\">Dieudonn\u00e9 is the definitive hero of genuine socialist thinking\u00a0in the spirit of the\u00a0Paris Commune, and\u00a0as such, he indeed poses a great danger to fake New Leftists and their paymasters at CRIF. The kosher Frankfurt graduate sees the French masses gathering momentum and the people marching in the streets of Paris shouting \u2018the emperor has no clothes\u2019. In fact, there is not much to be concealed or suppressed anymore. Once <\/span>meaning-of-dieudonne<span style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\" lang=\"EN-US\"> again, the bare truth reveals itself and against all odds.<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span class=\"yiv1595675561mhrhead\"><strong>The Wandering Who?
