Kyle Rittenhouse – who was made famous by his justified shooting of two Antifa members/supporters in Kenosha, Wisconsin on 25th August 2020 and the subsequent trial – has long been vilified by jews as a ‘Nazi’, ‘White Supremacist’ and ‘Racist’. (1)
The Anti-Defamation League in particular has long vilified Rittenhouse and sees him as part of ‘anti-Semitic conspiracy’ against jews (2) and it has long mystified those on the political right as to why Rittenhouse got off so lightly (despite all the jewish pressure) compared to say the ongoing case against former US marine Daniel Penny, (3) the Charlottesville protesters (4) and those present at the January 6th incident at the US Capitol. (5)
Traditionally this has been ascribed to finding one of the few remaining honest and impartial judges left on the US benches (6) but another possibility reared its ugly head on 10th October 2023 when Rittenhouse himself made a surprising admission as part of his defence against the repeated charges – often made by jews and pro-Israel organizations ironically enough – of ‘anti-Semitism’ and allegations of links to Nick Fuentes that he was himself of jewish origin.
He wrote in a formal prepared statement posted on X (formerly Twitter) that:
‘– Media reports have falsely asserted the presence of Kyle Rittenhouse at a meeting in Fort Worth last week.
In a statement, Mr. Rittenhouse – speaking for himself and as a spokesperson for Texas Gun Rights – unequivocally denounced Nick Fuentes and the circumstances around the meeting taking place near Rittenhouse’s office.
"While I have office space in the building Fuentes visited, I did not take part in any meetings with him, nor would I,” said Rittenhouse. "As soon as I was made aware that Fuentes was in the office, I asked my supervisor to be excused for the day. I and the entire department were thankfully dismissed. Fuentes has attacked me personally, and his hideous views denigrate the memory and legacy of my Jewish family members, some of whom were victims of the Nazi’s holocaust."
TXGR, as an organization, has categorically denounced Fuentes and his abominable positions. His invitation to the building was not disclosed to TXGR, and TXGR leadership has objected to Fuentes' presence.
The organization has communicated to building’s management concerns for Rittenhouse’s safety. TXGR has issued notice that moving forward, robust safeguards must be established to prevent extending invitations to individuals who espouse racist and anti-Semitic views.’ (7)
That is pretty much conclusive as Rittenhouse clearly states he has ‘jewish family members’ some of whom ‘died in the Holocaust’ – meaning they weren’t converts or just remotely jewish according to the orthodox ‘Holocaust’ narrative anyway – and that as such necessarily implies (without directly stating) that he identifies as being jewish and because he is jewish therefore he ‘opposes anti-Semitism and racism’.
You don’t get a much clearer statement than that and all Rittenhouse could do to be more explicit about his jewishness would be to put on a kippah and dance the hora while flying the Israeli flag and in many ways he already has.
The real question here is not whether Rittenhouse is jewish – he undoubtedly is given his own statement to that effect – but rather whether Rittenhouse was let off the hook from his famous criminal trial because he was jewish.
