Chilean Senator calls local Jews ‘Israeli agents’

Chilean Senator Eugenio Tuma has just qualified himself for the next year’s Top Ten Anti-Semitic Slurs.
On December 27, 2010 – American Jewish Committee (AJC), one of US major Israel lobby group called the Senator “a bigot” for his remarks that prominent Chilean Jews including the country’s Jewish Interior Minister, Rodrigo Javier Hinzpeter Kirberg, in fact work for Israel. Senator Eugenio Tuma has also accused the interior minister being “an activist and militant for Israel”. The Senator also made similar remark about Gabriel Zaliasnik, the president of pro-Israel Jewish organization CREJ, which happens to be associated with AJC at international level to protect the interests of the Zionist entity.
Chilean Senator Eugenio Tuma who is a Christian of Palestinian descent, has claimed that the Chilean and US Jewish lobby groups are campaigning against Chilean recognition of an independent Palestinian State. Several Latin American countries, such as, Brazil, Venezuela, Argentine (home to largest Jewish community in South america), Bolivia, Uruguay and Paraguay, has recognized an independent Palestinian state on Palestinian land (Gaza, West Bank and East Jerusalem) captured by Zionist Jews in 1967.
On March 28, 2006 – Israel daily ‘YNet’ had boasted that “following the Israeli government, the newly elected Chilean cabinet is the most Jewish government in the world with three Jewish ministers and one deputy minister serving in government”. There are 15,000 Jews among country’s total population of 17 million.
Rodrigo Javier Hinzpeter Kirberg’s hatred is not limited to Arabs alone. Early this year, he had framed a Pakistani national Saif ur Rehman Khan, who was in Santiago to study Spanish language and to complete some time as an internee with the local Hotel. Khan was arrested and jailed on suspicion of ‘traces of explosives’ in his luggage, which could not be proved in court. Khan, after spending several months in Chilean jail, was exonerated of all Israeli cooked-up charges of “Muslim terrorist” against him on December 6, 2010.
Earlier, the Zionist entity, even tried to exploit Chilean mine tragedy for its hasbara (propaganda) through Chilean Jewish billionaire mining tycoon Leonardo Farkas.
Incidently, Senator Eugenio Tuma, is not the first person to criticize Jews for their disloyalty toward the country they live. In 2009, a poll conducted by an Israel lobby group, Anti-Defamation League (ADL) among seven European countries (Poland, Germany, Austria, France, Hungary, Germany and Britain), 50% of the participants said that they believe the Jews living in those countries are more loyal to Israel than the country they live in.
Arab businessmen and farmers started settling in Chile during the 1850s. Now they number 300,000, mostly Palestinian Christians.
