Running the
Gauntlet of Anti-Semitism
From
Polish Counter-Intelligence
to the German-American Marshall Center
by
Michael Moshe Checinski |
 Who
could have predicted that even
into the 21st century, Jews would
continue to feel the lethal blade
of anti-Semitism, with unrelenting
attacks on synagogues, rabbis,
individuals, Jewish institutions
and Jewish-owned property?
Michael
Moshe Checinski is not
surprised. He has lived through
the virulent anti-Semitism that
produced the Lodz ghetto and the
Nazi death camps. After the War,
as a member of Polish
Counterintelligence, Michael
confronted the anti-Semitism that
"cleansed" him from his native
land. As a Research Fellow, he
encountered the gargoyle of
anti-Semitism at Harvard, and as
Professor of Defense Economics, he
came face-to-face with unrelenting
anti-Semitism in the bastion of
modern Democracy, The
American-German Marshall Center.
At each period in his life,
Checinski believes firmly that he
has finally arrived in a social
Eden, only to discover that even
the good people turn away and
shrink from the fight against
anti-Semitism.

|
So, he
begins to collect data -- reports,
memos -- snippets of information
that will corroborate what he has
found out, first hand: that the
tentacles of anti-Semitism cannot be
cut off by just wishing them away,
or ignoring them. They must be
aggressively confronted and their
root cause, destroyed. Checinski is
on a crusade, but he is no Don
Quixote. He is a proud Jew, fighting
bigotry, and more often than not,
pays a high price for his ideals. |
