<p>British comedian David Baddiel slammed leftist Whoopi Goldberg during a Wednesday appearance on “Good Morning Britain” where he dismantled the anti-Semitic remarks that she made at the start of the week that have resulted in her suspension.</p>
<p>Goldberg has faced intense backlash, including calls for her to be fired, after she falsely claimed that the Holocaust was &#8220;not about race.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;There are so many issues [with what] she&#8217;s saying,&#8221; Baddiel said. &#8220;It does reveal an awful lot about the confusions that people have around anti-Semitism that are explored in my book. And the principal, one of the principal things going on here is the resistance to the idea that anti-Semitism is racism. And I think, what does Whoopi Goldberg think it is? Well, I think what a lot of people think it is, is religious intolerance.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And the problem with that is, I&#8217;m an atheist, and the Gestapo would have shot me tomorrow,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;My great uncle Arno, who died in the Warsaw ghetto, was not an observant Jew. And indeed, it&#8217;s not just the Holocaust. Now, Neo-Nazis marching with torches, saying the Jews will not replace us in Charlottesville — they would not ask a Jew whether he kept kosher before they set light to that house; they&#8217;re not interested in faith, and the Nazis weren&#8217;t interested in faith. They were interested in racial purity. That&#8217;s what the laws, the Nuremberg laws, they were racial purity laws.&#8221;</p>
<p>When one of the show&#8217;s co-hosts pointed out that his remarks suggested that there are people who exist who think that &#8220;racism is only about the color of your skin,&#8221; Baddiel responded, &#8220;Yeah, no, that&#8217;s true.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And there&#8217;s a specific thing that I think is going on here, which is, you know, Jews and the whiteness of Jews is a very complex thing. I use this phrase in the book, it&#8217;s a bit early for this, but anyway, called &#8216;Schrodinger&#8217;s white,’” he continued. &#8220;So, what I mean by that is, Jews are seen as white or non-white depending on the politics of the observer, right? So, far-right groups, and for years and years, centuries, have seen Jews as not part of the white races; absolutely part of Hitler&#8217;s project to say Jews are not part of the Aryan white races. But meanwhile, on the other side, on the far-left, the association of Jews, which is a racist thing, with power and privilege, makes them kind of super white.&#8221;</p>
<p>He noted that Goldberg’s comments effectively watered down the horror of the Holocaust and that what happened was &#8220;actually a very particular type of genocide.”</p>
<p>“She talked on Stephen Colbert’s show about two sides fighting. This was not two sides fighting. This was an ethnic group being marked out to be destroyed by a military industrial machine.&#8221;</p>
