I was asked by USA Today to respond to remarks made by Hasan Piker about Zionism. Piker claimed as follows: โ€œZionism is the ethnoreligious supremacist ideology that is exterminationist in principle, born out of the wrong assessment that this was a land without people for a people without land. It required the extermination of the indigenous population, and that's precisely what has happened since its inception. And its final iteration of that has been the Gaza genocide that we watched unfold.โ€ You can call a blowtorch an avocado as many times as you want, but it still doesnโ€™t have a seed, and it still isnโ€™t green because itโ€™s still just a blowtorch. The claim that Zionism is an exterminationist ideology is just as nonsensical as calling a blowtorch an avocado. The suggestion that Jews want to exterminate the Arabs who also live on the land is likewise, as it has always been, ludicrous and false. Zionism is a simple idea, which is that Jews have the same rights โ€” not more rights, but also not fewer rights โ€” than every other people on Earth have to sovereignty in their national homeland. So just as you might think that Bulgarians have the right to sovereignty in their homeland, Japanese people, Korean people, German people all have the right to sovereignty in their homeland, Zionism is just the idea that Jews should be treated the same. By the way, this is in the charter, the charter that is the foundation of the state of Israel. In that document, the word โ€˜extermination,โ€™ of course, would never appear there, but anything that even remotely resembles that word or idea is foreign to any of the early laws or that document. In fact, the document says precisely the opposite. The document says that one of the purposes of the state of Israel is to allow Jews and Arabs alike to live in peace and to flourish together in the land of Israel. That's what the Declaration of Independence of the State of Israel says, and by the way, that's what the state of Israel has proven, more so than what it said in 1948, in the decades since.

"Ongoing" - One of the phrases increasingly used next to the term "Nakba" is "Ongoing" as in the recent proposal by Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib. Now westerners assume that the "ongoing" seeks to highlight continued suffering of Palestinian Arabs, but as with so many other phrases that serve as "dual use language" (as Eran Shayshon coined) is that the deep meaning is very different. Once it is known and understood that the real time meaning of the Nakba, as described by Constantin Zureiq as "Seven Arab states declare war in an attempt to subdue Zionism, stop impotent before it, and return on their heels" was the shameful failure to defeat the lowly Jews in war - it becomes crystal clear why it remains "ongoing": As long as Israel exists, the Arab, and especially Palestinian Arab shameful failure to dismantle Jewish sovereignty and "subdue Zionism" remains "ongoing". As long as, per Bevin's quote, the top goal of the Palestine Arabs "to resist to the last the establishment of Jewish sovereignty in any part of the land" remains unfulfilled, their definition of disaster remains "ongoing". In the updated book of The War of Return, "October Return", Dr. Adi Schwartz and I included a dictionary of sort to explore this dual use language. I share it here with you: "This becomes especially clear when analyzing the language of Palestinian identity and that of its supporters around the world. Terms such as โ€œtwo states,โ€ โ€œjustice,โ€ โ€œreturn,โ€ and โ€œrightsโ€ carry one meaning in dialogue between Palestinians and Westerners or Israelisโ€”but an entirely different meaning within internal Palestinian discourse. "Take โ€œtwo states,โ€ for example. During the years of negotiations, Palestinian leadersโ€”and many surveysโ€”expressed support for the โ€œtwo-state solution.โ€ Israelis and Westerners reasonably assumed that this meant one state for Palestinian Arabs and one for Jews. In retrospect, we should have checked. For when Palestinians speak of โ€œtwo states,โ€ they also maintain that millions of Palestinian โ€œrefugeesโ€ have a right to settle inside Israel. The implication is that the phrase โ€œtwo statesโ€ actually means a Palestinian Arab state in the West Bank and Gaza, alongside a second Arab-majority state that replaces Israel via the mass return of refugees. In effect: โ€œthis one is ours, and that one is also ours.โ€ "To this day, no official Palestinian peace plan includes the recognition of a Jewish state on any part of the land between the river and the sea. "It is also worth examining the meaning of a word like โ€œjusticeโ€โ€”so frequently invoked in phrases like โ€œa just peace,โ€ โ€œa just solution,โ€ or in the names of organizations such as โ€œStudents for Justice in Palestine.โ€ To many in the world, โ€œjusticeโ€ may simply mean that Palestinians should have a state of their own, or that Israel should not control their daily lives. That is a reasonable interpretation. But it is not the Palestinian one. "For Palestinians, there is only one concept of justice: the reversal of the injustice they associate with the creation of the State of Israel. And central to that โ€œcorrective justiceโ€ is returnโ€”which, by definition, entails the end of Israel as the nation-state of the Jewish people. "The same applies to words like โ€œrights,โ€ โ€œliberation,โ€ and, of course, โ€œreturn.โ€ As will become clear in the pages ahead, there is no ambiguity: โ€œreturnโ€ is the concept that embodies victory over the Jewish state and its elimination.

Ambassador Chas Freeman: Israel Is Worse Than Nazis Itโ€™s very clear what Israel wants. Itโ€™s made no secret that it wants to depopulate Gaza by whatever means it can, by starving people into leaving, expelling them, or killing them all. And thereโ€™s no question that it meets the definition of genocide. They have the intent to destroy an entire people. They have the ability and they are, in fact, carrying out an operation intended to do so. I think itโ€™s also quite clear why Hamas did what it did. This was in the nature of a jailbreak from the worldโ€™s largest concentration camp. And having been treated like animals they behaved like animals. What they did was horrifying, it was inexcusable, but it was understandable. The Israeli reaction has been vastly disproportionate and that is Israelโ€™s custom. It tries to react disproportionately in order to intimidate and deter anyone from attacking it. That is not new but what is new are the genocidal statements and proposed emptying of Gaza. 60% of the buildings in Northern Gaza have been destroyed and we know that over 12,000 Palestinians have been murdered by one means or another. Israel has destroyed most of the hospitals in Gaza. It now seems to be working on the schools. So it is totally ruthless and the whole thing is particularly macabre because it is such a vivid reminder of the Warsaw Ghetto, a very parallel situation in which driven beyond any ability to tolerate what was being done to them, the Jewish inhabitants of the Warsaw Ghetto rose against Nazi Germany and the Nazis exterminated them all and leveled the ghetto. One would think that the survivors of that Holocaust and the larger Holocaust in Europe would not wish to repeat a holocaust against another people but evidently, that is expecting too much of human nature. It now appears that much of the killing at the music festival was actually done by Israeli forces who fired indiscriminately at both the Hamas warriors and the milling crowds at the festival. Similarly, some of the major damage in the kibbutzim and the murders of the settlers there were done not by Hamas but by Israeli forces firing tank bullets into houses and hellfire missiles into cars and so forth. So this was a dreadful beginning to what has turned out to be an absolutely nauseating months and a half of slaughter, not finished. The United States has the ability to stop this by halting armed supplies to Israel but does not do that, opposes a ceasefire in support of Mr. Netanyahuโ€™s revenge against the Palestinians, and Mr. Netanyahu, I would remind you, is on record many years ago as expressing hope for a war in which Israel could expel all the Arabs in its midst and seems to be taking advantage of this to do that hoping, I suppose, that his reputation which has been greatly damaged by charges of corruption and by his suspension of judicial independence in Israel, can somehow be redeemed by this act of revenge. Where we are is a very bad place. What Israel is reporting is extraordinarily crude propaganda, some of it obviously, utterly false, and theyโ€™ve been caught. Even some of the mainstream media are beginning to report that the Israeli Defense Forces are lying about a huge number of things. Younger people, generally in the West, certainly in my own country the United States, are far more inclined to be sympathetic to the Palestinians than they ever were before. Itโ€™s not that they dislike Israelis but now confronted with with graphic images of horror, the murder of 12,000 [Palestinians], theyโ€™re not dispassionate. Not only are they demonstrating in all of the worldโ€™s capitals for a ceasefire which their governments declined to support for the most part, but social media is now overwhelmingly pro-Palestinian as opposed to pro-Israeli. But I think the Palestinians, generally, have been motivated to remind the world that they exist. That their problems canโ€™t be set aside. The Israeli government, with the connivance of the Biden Administration, and before that the Trump Administration, was making an effort to set the Palestinian issue aside in order to produce Arab-Israeli normalization. And the Palestinians set out with this raid into Israel to demonstrate that that is impossible, that the only way that you can have peace in Palestine is with a two-state solution. And oddly enough, although Hamas, of course, started as a movement funded in part by the Israelis โ€” Mr. Netanyahu has openly admitted that he corroborated with Qatar to fund Hamas in Gaza in order to divide the Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza โ€” I think Hamas seized the moment to provoke Israel into doing exactly what Israel has predictively done in order to make it clear to the world that you have to have a two-state solution which had become a talking point. There was no reality to it at all. There had been no peace process for twenty-some years. Now there must be. People have recognized that the one-state solution โ€” which many favored, meaning a purely democratic one-man-one-vote arrangement in Palestine in which inevitably the Jewish population given its higher level of culture, civilization, and finance, would have called most of the shots โ€” is off the table. After all the hatred that has been demonstrated on both sides, coexistence in one state is obviously impossible in Palestine. Two states, however, would give the Palestinians a stake in peace. They have no stake in peace at the moment. Theyโ€™re like a rabbit being swallowed by some kind of boa constrictor. As time goes on they go farther and farther down the throat of the snake and theyโ€™re crying out, and they were doing so at a pitch that, apparently, no one internationally could hear. And now their cause has been dramatized. We canโ€™t have a resolution of what is going on now that takes the form of another expulsion of Palestinians, more tolerance of massacres, the condoning of genocide... and I think those in the West, including President Biden, who has been prepared to give Israel a pass on these issues, are beginning to pay heavily in terms of their political prestige in their domestic politics. Settler colonialism invariably leads to some attempt at genocide. That was the case in the United States, Canada, and Australia. It wasnโ€™t the case in New Zealand because the Mฤori were too tough. It wasnโ€™t the case in South Africa because the Zulus, and other South African blacks, were too tough. It wasnโ€™t the case in Kenya because, eventually, black Kenyans rose up in the Mau Mau movement, which was itself a horror, but it did result in a separation from the colonial rule of the British. The same thing could happen. Now the difficulty of all this is obvious in terms of the fact that youโ€™ve got an Israeli cabinet that is the most determined, genocidal cabinet the world has ever seen, and I donโ€™t excuse the Nazi cabinets from that comparison. The overt statements of genocidal intent are unmistakable. Thereโ€™s no effort, as the Germans did make, to conceal what is in store for the Palestinians. Thereโ€™s no fake camp for Jews like the one the Nazis set up to bring the Swiss Red Cross in to show how wonderful they were treating the people they had taken away from their homes. No effort whatsoever of that sort, just bombing and strafing and murder on the ground. Israel appears to be paying quite a heavy price for that in terms of combat losses, but, of course, is not reporting accurately what is happening.

(Political) Zionism is "inherently oppressive," as Peter Beinart explains: "Zionism, tragically, is inherently oppressive because it is based on the notion that the state has a higher level of obligations to Jews than it does to Palestinians... even in Israel "proper" those Palestinians who are citizens... are not treated equally. I'll give you just one quick example: 93% of the land inside Israel proper (I'm not talking about the West Bank and Gaza) is state land, much of it was taken from Palestinians when they were expelled in 1948. The Jews only lived on ~6% of the land before Israel's war of independence so much of it was land Palestinians controlled... Now it's called state land it's doled out for development in Israel by something called the Israel Land Authority. ...If you're a town or maybe even an industry & you want a chunk of land you're given a long-term lease by the Israel Land Authority so you can expand. The Israel Land Authority has 22 seats, 10 of those seats are given to the Jewish National Fund, whose explicit mission is the development of land for Jewish use. The other 12 (seats) are given to members of the cabinet... there's usually not one Palestinian on the Israel Land Authority (sometimes there's one) so that's why Palestinians are not given land for development in Israel... ...which helps to explain why Palestinian municipalities sit on 2% or 3% of the land inside Israel even though Palestinians are 20% of the population ... this helps explain why according to a study, 87% of the home demolitions inside Israel proper (I'm not talking about the West Bank) are of Palestinian homes because Palestinians are in very overcrowded, essentially ghettos, and all of the land around those Palestinian towns is controlled by Jews and Palestinians can't get access to any of that land... the state doesn't function for them.... it's a state in that essentially functions for the benefit of Jews, not for the benefit even of its own Palestinian citizens let alone the Palestinians who don't have citizenship."

This is a pertinent clip from Sam Harris on the moral difference between Israel and her enemies. The moral difference comes down to understanding the answer to this question: what would each side do if they had the power to do it? TRANSCRIPT: The truth is that there is an obvious, undeniable, and hugely consequential moral difference between Israel and her enemies. The Israelis are surrounded by people who have explicitly genocidal intentions towards them. The charter of Hamas is explicitly genocidal. It looks forward to a time, based on Koranic prophesy, when the earth itself will cry out for Jewish blood, where the trees and the stones will say โ€œO Muslim, thereโ€™s a Jew hiding behind me. Come and kill him.โ€ This is a political document. We are talking about a government that was voted into power by a majority of Palestinians. The discourse in the Muslim world about Jews is utterly shocking. Not only is there widespread Holocaust denialโ€”thereโ€™s Holocaust denial that then asserts that we will do it for real if given the chance. The only thing more obnoxious than denying the Holocaust is to say that it should have happened; it didnโ€™t happen, but if we get the chance, we will accomplish it. There are childrenโ€™s shows in the Palestinian territories and elsewhere that teach five-year-olds about the glories of martyrdom and about the necessity of killing Jews. And this gets to the heart of the moral difference between Israel and her enemies. And this is something I discussed in The End of Faith. To see this moral difference, you have to ask what each side would do if they had the power to do it. What would the Jews do to the Palestinians if they could do anything they wanted? Well, we know the answer to that question, because they can do more or less anything they want. The Israeli army could kill everyone in Gaza tomorrow. So what does that mean? Well, it means that, when they drop a bomb on a beach and kill four Palestinian children, as happened last week, this is almost certainly an accident. Theyโ€™re not targeting children. They could target as many children as they want. Every time a Palestinian child dies, Israel edges ever closer to becoming an international pariah. So the Israelis take great pains not to kill children and other noncombatants. What do we know of the Palestinians? What would the Palestinians do to the Jews in Israel if the power imbalance were reversed? Well, they have told us what they would do. For some reason, Israelโ€™s critics just donโ€™t want to believe the worst about a group like Hamas, even when it declares the worst of itself. Weโ€™ve already had a Holocaust and several other genocides in the 20th century. People are capable of committing genocide. When they tell us they intend to commit genocide, we should listen. There is every reason to believe that the Palestinians would kill all the Jews in Israel if they could. Would every Palestinian support genocide? Of course not. But vast numbers of themโ€”and of Muslims throughout the worldโ€”would. Needless to say, the Palestinians in general, not just Hamas, have a history of targeting innocent noncombatants in the most shocking ways possible. Theyโ€™ve blown themselves up on buses and in restaurants. Theyโ€™ve massacred teenagers. Theyโ€™ve murdered Olympic athletes. They now shoot rockets indiscriminately into civilian areas.

This is a pertinent clip from Sam Harris on the moral difference between Israel and her enemies. The moral difference comes down to understanding the answer to this question: what would each side do if they had the power to do it? TRANSCRIPT: The truth is that there is an obvious, undeniable, and hugely consequential moral difference between Israel and her enemies. The Israelis are surrounded by people who have explicitly genocidal intentions towards them. The charter of Hamas is explicitly genocidal. It looks forward to a time, based on Koranic prophesy, when the earth itself will cry out for Jewish blood, where the trees and the stones will say โ€œO Muslim, thereโ€™s a Jew hiding behind me. Come and kill him.โ€ This is a political document. We are talking about a government that was voted into power by a majority of Palestinians. The discourse in the Muslim world about Jews is utterly shocking. Not only is there widespread Holocaust denialโ€”thereโ€™s Holocaust denial that then asserts that we will do it for real if given the chance. The only thing more obnoxious than denying the Holocaust is to say that it should have happened; it didnโ€™t happen, but if we get the chance, we will accomplish it. There are childrenโ€™s shows in the Palestinian territories and elsewhere that teach five-year-olds about the glories of martyrdom and about the necessity of killing Jews. And this gets to the heart of the moral difference between Israel and her enemies. And this is something I discussed in The End of Faith. To see this moral difference, you have to ask what each side would do if they had the power to do it. What would the Jews do to the Palestinians if they could do anything they wanted? Well, we know the answer to that question, because they can do more or less anything they want. The Israeli army could kill everyone in Gaza tomorrow. So what does that mean? Well, it means that, when they drop a bomb on a beach and kill four Palestinian children, as happened last week, this is almost certainly an accident. Theyโ€™re not targeting children. They could target as many children as they want. Every time a Palestinian child dies, Israel edges ever closer to becoming an international pariah. So the Israelis take great pains not to kill children and other noncombatants. What do we know of the Palestinians? What would the Palestinians do to the Jews in Israel if the power imbalance were reversed? Well, they have told us what they would do. For some reason, Israelโ€™s critics just donโ€™t want to believe the worst about a group like Hamas, even when it declares the worst of itself. Weโ€™ve already had a Holocaust and several other genocides in the 20th century. People are capable of committing genocide. When they tell us they intend to commit genocide, we should listen. There is every reason to believe that the Palestinians would kill all the Jews in Israel if they could. Would every Palestinian support genocide? Of course not. But vast numbers of themโ€”and of Muslims throughout the worldโ€”would. Needless to say, the Palestinians in general, not just Hamas, have a history of targeting innocent noncombatants in the most shocking ways possible. Theyโ€™ve blown themselves up on buses and in restaurants. Theyโ€™ve massacred teenagers. Theyโ€™ve murdered Olympic athletes. They now shoot rockets indiscriminately into civilian areas. And again, the charter of their government in Gaza explicitly tells us that they want to annihilate the Jewsโ€”not just in Israel but everywhere.

There are a few things things that college kidsโ€”especially the ones chanting "free palestine" and "from the river to the sea"โ€”should know about the history and founding of Israel. A Palestinian state was already created in 1921. There was a British mandate of Palestine, which was a foreign occupied colony of the British Empire, which comprised modern-day what's Israel and what's now Jordan. The Jews believed they were entitled, based on the Balfour Declaration of 1917, to the entire mandate of Palestine to be the future Jewish state. In 1921, it became clear that wasn't to be. The British understood they were gonna need oil from the Arab states in a future global conflict, and so they ceded 77% of that land to create a state for the Arab Muslim Palestinians. They weren't called Palestinians then, but they were the Arab Muslims who lived in the British colony of Palestine. That country became first known as Transjordan on the other side of the Jordan, then it became the Kingdom of Jordan, and ultimately today we know it as Jordan. So there is a Palestinian state full of Palestinian Muslim Arabs. There's a Palestinian queen in that state today. The prince and future king of that state is a Palestinian, and over 60% of the population are people who are Arab Muslims from the mandate of Palestine. So there is a Palestinian state. What they really want is a second Palestinian state, a 58th Muslim state, a 23rd Arab state in the worldโ€”but it's just too much to have one teeny-tiny Jewish state. The second and more important thing to understand is that Israel and the international community have already offered the Palestinians on six prior occasions, in 1936 in the Peel Commission, 1947 in the Partition Plan, 1967 at Khartoum after the Six-Day War in Sudan, 1993 at Oslo, 2000 at Camp David with Bill Clinton, and again 2008 with Ehud Olmert as the prime minister. On six different occasions, Israel, America, and the international community offered the Palestinians their own state, their own sovereign territory with their own government to to do as they please with, on the land that college kids now seem to believe they deserve a state on. And what college kids don't understand is the Palestinians rejected that state on six different occasions. On college campuses, when kids chant "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free," realize that is only the English jingle that was created in order to appeal to and deceive American college kids. In Arabic, the original phrase is: "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be Arabic." They want a full Palestinian Arab state from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea with no Jews on it. That's what they've done in every other Arab country in the world, where they've expelled and ethnically cleansed the 850,000 Jews who lived all over the Muslim world, starting in the middle of the 20th century. People who have lived there, by the way, for centuries, all ethnically cleansed. They want to do the same thing with the 10 million people who now live in Israel, and we're never gonna allow that to happen.

Billed as the 'experience of a lifetime', here is a video published by a 'Zionist' school in Brent, London on its pupils trip to Israel. The whole video is below in case it disappears from YouTube. The school, JFS, has been running these trips for 'over 40 years' and it says they promote 'the values and ethos of JFS including the ideals of Zionist Modern Orthodoxy.' The school they visit is based in a city called Hod HaSharon built on land that was taken from the Palestinians by Jewish settlers in the 1920s and 1930s. The school is supported by the Jewish National Fund the Israeli land theft agency and 'national institution'. Amongst the teachers at the school in 'Israel' there are English settler-colonists from London, Sunderland and Bristol. According to one of the teachers in the video: 'They [The visiting students] fall in love with the country'. When they are taught that they have a right to be there, is it any wonder that inculcating racist views are the price and indeed the point of these trips? #DismantleZionism

Hamas leader Fathi Hammad torched the biggest lie in the Middle East. He admitted that the so-called โ€œPalestiniansโ€ are not indigenous at all โ€” theyโ€™re Arab Muslims who invaded and settled in the Land of Israel from Jordan, Egypt, Syria, and every surrounding country. There was never a โ€œPalestinian people.โ€ Only opportunistic Arab-Muslim colonizers who invented a national identity to wage Jihad on the Jews. The leftโ€™s entire narrative was just destroyed โ€” by one of their favorite terrorists. This is the red-pill truth theyโ€™ve been trying to bury for decades.

Question from journalist: โ€œFrance says that they will support Palestinian statehood in the next short while. Youโ€™ve described that as a reward for Hamas here. Other countries like Australia are also walking down this path. Not quite there yet. How much of this is a reward for Hamas, and how much of it is actually countries like those who have repeatedly said Israel does have a right to defend itself, but are now struggling to stomach what theyโ€™re saying you and your military are doing in Gaza?โ€ -- Prime Minister Netanyahuโ€™s Response: โ€œWell, first of all, those who say that Israel has a right to defend itself are also saying, but donโ€™t exercise that right. When we do what any country would do, faced with this genocidal terrorist organization that has performed the worst attack on Jews since the Holocaust, I think weโ€™re actually applying force judiciously. And they know it. They know what they would do if theyโ€™re right next to Melbourne or right next to Sydney. You had this horrific attacks. I think you would do it, at least what weโ€™re doing, probablyโ”€ maybe not as efficiently and as precisely as weโ€™re doing it. Weโ€™ve lost quite a few soldiers in that effort. But, thatโ€™s the first thing. I think that, the second thing you ask is a Palestinian state. Well, the assumption, the prevailing assumption, in this, is that the problem that we have with the Palestinians is the absence of a Palestinian state. And if they were given a Palestinian state, they would stop the efforts to destroy the Jewish state. But the Palestinians were offered a state many times, including in the partition resolution, and they turned it down. They were offered statehood by my predecessors with lavish, lavish concessions. They turned it down. Because the Palestinians are not about creating a state; theyโ€™re about destroying a state. Thatโ€™s why they opposed the Jewish national movement to create a state. Itโ€™s called Zionism. They opposed it before the inception of the Jewish state, and theyโ€™ve opposed it since. Theyโ€™ve opposed it when they had Judea and Samaria, the West Bank and Gaza in their whole. They didnโ€™t say, letโ€™s start, letโ€™s create a state there. They didnโ€™t say that, because, again, their goal is the destruction of a state. It defies imagination or understanding how intelligent people around the world, okay, including seasoned diplomats, government leaders and respected journalists, fall for this absurdity. Itโ€™s so easy to verify, you know. And look at the PA. Okay. Look at the Palestinian National movement today is divided between two forces: The Palestinian Authority in Judea and Samaria, and Hamas in Gaza. Okay. Hamas in Gaza had a de facto state. It had a state and it used it to launch a war of terror against Israel, because their doctrine, that is, that the destruction of Israel should proceed with forceful and direct military and terrorist moves. Thatโ€™s what they did on October 7th. Thatโ€™s what theyโ€™ll do again if we donโ€™t destroy them. The Palestinian Authority, on the other hand, says, โ€˜No. First, Israel has to be reduced to indefensible boundaries. Youโ€™ve got to get them out. With the ICC, with the UN, with the Security Council resolutions: Drive them to indefensible boundaries and then deliver the blow, because Israel is too strong in its present configuration.โ€™ These discussions are open. Theyโ€™re held. Anybodyโ”€ you donโ€™t need Israeli Intel for it, believe me. You can just scour the web, youโ€™ll find it. Okay. So they have no difference about the goal. Thatโ€™s why the Palestinian children in Judea and Samaria and the Palestinian children, that is, the Palestinian children under the PA, and the Palestinian children under Hamas are educated with exactly the same textbooks. Thatโ€™s why the PA calls its public squares against mass killers of Jews. Thatโ€™s why they have pay for slay: The more Jews you murder, the more you get paid. Or your family gets paid. I mean, so that thatโ€™s the crux of the problem. The real reason that this conflict persists is not because of the absence of a Palestinian state, but the persistent Palestinian refusal to recognize a Jewish state in any boundary. Now, when you give them a Palestinian state, when they havenโ€™t abandoned the goal of destroying the Jewish state, all youโ€™re doing is youโ€™re making, youโ€™re bringing the next war closer. Again, Hamas had a state. You just brought the war closer. And if you did the same thing in Judea and Samaria, right above Tel Aviv, enveloping Jerusalem, some say cutting Jerusalem into two, thatโ€™s all thatโ€™s gonna happen. Youโ€™re going to have the radicals again take it over, Iran, take it over, and start a state from improved boundaries, start a war with improved boundaries. Thatโ€™s not going to happen. I think the solution to this problem is that the Palestinians should have all the powers to govern themselves in the places where they live, and none of the powers to threaten Israel. They should obviously reform their whole education system. They should reform their whole historical outlook and say, โ€˜All right, you know, we accept that Israel is here to stay,โ€™ not as a fact, as a physical or geographic fact, but as a fact of historical equity. You know, if they want to live here, next to us, they have to stop seeking our destruction. And to give them an independent state, with all the trimmings, is to invite a future war and a certain war. And thatโ€™s something that, today the Israeli public forcefully opposes. Before the war, by the way, it was about, you know, a third [for a Palestinian state] / two thirds [against], in the overall population. Probably 60 [against a Palestinian state]/40 for a state. Or even more, against [a state] in the Jewish population. But now itโ€™s changed more dramatically [to more against a state]. I mean, we had a vote in the Knesset, a few months ago, about the possibility, you know, of having a Palestinian state. And the result was 99 to 9. 99 to 9. And that covers a very broad spectrum. And today most of the Jewish public is committed โ€“ is against the Palestinian state for the simple reason that they know it wonโ€™t bring peace, but itโ€™ll bring war. To have uh, European countries, and Australia, march into that rabbit hole โ€“ just like that, fall right into it โ”€ and buy this canard is disappointing. And I think itโ€™s actually shameful. But itโ€™s not going to change our position. Again, we will not commit national suicide to get a good op-ed for two minutes. We wonโ€™t do that. Thank you very much.โ€

The Jews lived in the Holy Land for centuries, even before the Romans named the land โ€œPalestina.โ€ During the Ottoman occupation, Jews lived legally in Jerusalem and major cities in the Old Yishuv. Ottoman Jews were there long before the rise of the Zionist movement in Europe. Even during the British colonial rule, a.k.a. the British Mandate of Palestine, which started in 1917, the Jewish community prospered. Jews bought land legally and turned the desert into a paradise. When Britain returned the mandate to the UN, the Jews accepted the partition plan and agreed to establish a Jewish state next to an Arab state and live in peace with their Arab neighbors. But the Arab Muslims rejected it and repeatedly started wars to destroy the State of Israel and ethnically cleanse the Jews. They lost all the wars they started. Somehow, they managed to convince people in the West that Jews are โ€œillegalsโ€ in the Land of Israel and that Israel has no right to exist. This is the big lie.

Israel And Its Supporters Are Causing Attacks On Jewish Institutions Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt gave a bizarre appearance on CNN in response to an attempted car bombing of a Michigan synagogue by a man whose Lebanese family members were killed by Israeli forces. โ€œWe are seeing Jewish people, the Jewish state, blamed for the war in the Middle East,โ€ Greenblatt said. โ€œThat is wrong. It is wrong to scapegoat, it is wrong to hold Jewish people accountable for something you donโ€™t like on the other side of the planet. And we really need leaders on all sides in politics, running for office, podcasters, to stop with the conspiracies, to stop with the accusations, and then tell us โ€˜but we oppose antisemitismโ€™. You donโ€™t get to say youโ€™re opposed to hate if youโ€™re trafficking in hateful conspiracy theories.โ€ Now, at first glance it this might read like Greenblatt is taking the entirely reasonable position that it is wrong to blame Jewish Americans for the actions of the Israeli government. But take a closer look at his use of the phrase โ€œthe Jewish stateโ€. What Greenblatt is actually doing here is claiming itโ€™s an antisemitic conspiracy theory to blame the state of Israel for its war crimes, while simultaneously lumping all Jewish people in with the actions of that state. Thatโ€™s what heโ€™s doing when he says โ€œJewish people, the Jewish stateโ€ in the same breath while talking about Israeli acts of mass military violence. Itโ€™s so obnoxious how genocide apologists like Greenblatt make a living actively telling everyone that Jews and Judaism are inseparable from the acts of the Israeli government, but whenever thereโ€™s an extremist attack by someone who doesnโ€™t distinguish between western Jews and the state of Israel it gets blamed on the pro-Palestine left. Pro-Palestine leftists perform endless verbal gymnastics to avoid conflating Jewish people with the state of Israel, while Israel and its supporters conflate them constantly. Yet weโ€™re always the ones who get blamed whenever thereโ€™s a terror attack on a Jewish institution by someone enraged by Israelโ€™s actions. Zionists are the ones doing everything they can to make sure people see the state of Israel as synonymous with Jews and Judaism. That is what they are doing every time they claim a criticism of Israelโ€™s actions is hate speech against Jews. They are claiming that the nation and its government are one and the same as the entirety of the Jewish faith and its adherents. Pro-Palestine leftists have been doing the exact opposite. We go to great pains to make sure all our arguments are carefully worded to avoid being interpreted as an attack on the Jewish faith, making it clear that our grievance is with the state of Israel and the political ideology of Zionism which supports that stateโ€™s abusive nature. And then Israel apologists come in and smear those meticulously crafted arguments as a hateful attack on all Jews everywhere. Zionists are therefore responsible for the growing perception that our Jewish neighbors and countrymen are culpable for the abuses of the Israeli government. When more attacks on Jewish institutions occur (and they will), it is Israel and its supporters who will hold the blame for this, not the pro-Palestine left. I am not saying attacks on Jewish institutions should happen. I am not saying it will be good when they do happen. Iโ€™m saying it will happen, and when it happens it will be a terrible thing. And it will be the fault of Israel and its supporters. Weโ€™ve been running around like crazy trying to stop this, falling all over ourselves to thwart the Zionist efforts to conflate Jews with Israel, but our voices arenโ€™t strong enough. Weโ€™re not the ones getting loudly amplified by every mass media outlet, they are. Itโ€™s not people like me getting invited to appear on CNN to talk to Wolf Blitzer, itโ€™s people like Jonathan Greenblatt. So when we lose the narrative war on this front and the next extremist attack occurs, it wonโ€™t be our fault. It will be theirs. It will be the fault of Israel and its apologists. We fought them as hard as we could to prevent this, but they won. And the consequences of this will therefore rest squarely on their shoulders.

But take a closer look at his use of the phrase โ€œthe Jewish stateโ€. What Greenblatt is actually doing here is claiming itโ€™s an antisemitic conspiracy theory to blame the state of Israel for its war crimes, while simultaneously lumping all Jewish people in with the actions of that state. Thatโ€™s what heโ€™s doing when he says โ€œJewish people, the Jewish stateโ€ in the same breath while talking about Israeli acts of mass military violence. Itโ€™s so obnoxious how genocide apologists like Greenblatt make a living actively telling everyone that Jews and Judaism are inseparable from the acts of the Israeli government, but whenever thereโ€™s an extremist attack by someone who doesnโ€™t distinguish between western Jews and the state of Israel it gets blamed on the pro-Palestine left. Pro-Palestine leftists perform endless verbal gymnastics to avoid conflating Jewish people with the state of Israel, while Israel and its supporters conflate them constantly. Yet weโ€™re always the ones who get blamed whenever thereโ€™s a terror attack on a Jewish institution by someone enraged by Israelโ€™s actions. Zionists are the ones doing everything they can to make sure people see the state of Israel as synonymous with Jews and Judaism. That is what they are doing every time they claim a criticism of Israelโ€™s actions is hate speech against Jews. They are claiming that the nation and its government are one and the same as the entirety of the Jewish faith and its adherents. Pro-Palestine leftists have been doing the exact opposite. We go to great pains to make sure all our arguments are carefully worded to avoid being interpreted as an attack on the Jewish faith, making it clear that our grievance is with the state of Israel and the political ideology of Zionism which supports that stateโ€™s abusive nature. And then Israel apologists come in and smear those meticulously crafted arguments as a hateful attack on all Jews everywhere. Zionists are therefore responsible for the growing perception that our Jewish neighbors and countrymen are culpable for the abuses of the Israeli government. When more attacks on Jewish institutions occur (and they will), it is Israel and its supporters who will hold the blame for this, not the pro-Palestine left. I am not saying attacks on Jewish institutions should happen. I am not saying it will be good when they do happen. Iโ€™m saying it will happen, and when it happens it will be a terrible thing. And it will be the fault of Israel and its supporters. Weโ€™ve been running around like crazy trying to stop this, falling all over ourselves to thwart the Zionist efforts to conflate Jews with Israel, but our voices arenโ€™t strong enough. Weโ€™re not the ones getting loudly amplified by every mass media outlet, they are. Itโ€™s not people like me getting invited to appear on CNN to talk to Wolf Blitzer, itโ€™s people like Jonathan Greenblatt. So when we lose the narrative war on this front and the next extremist attack occurs, it wonโ€™t be our fault. It will be theirs. It will be the fault of Israel and its apologists. We fought them as hard as we could to prevent this, but they won. And the consequences of this will therefore rest squarely on their shoulders.

Ceasefire now, people say. But what does that actually mean? So ceasefire is what we've had on October 6th and what we all want, obviously. But President Biden said it best. Ceasefire and a hostage deal, he said, is at the hands of Hamas. President Biden said that Israel put down a rational offer because Israel is a rational country. The problem is that Hamas is not a rational actor. It is a genocidal Jihadi terrorist organization that doesn't care about the lives of Palestinians. And people in the West have been yelling ceasefire now at the wrong side of this war. Hamas has rejected countless ceasefires. Hamas and Iran are not trying to build a better life for the Palestinian people. You have to understand what Hamas and Iran are doing right now is they're actively trying to inflame the entire Middle East right before the holy month of Ramadan, which as President Biden said is going to be very, very dangerous. And this is exactly what they are after. There is currently a multi-front war going on in Israel in which Israel is being attacked by Jihadi terrorists from all sides, all prompted, pushed, and sponsored by Iran. Hamas, according to what was published, said that they have Israel exactly where they want her. That means the international pressure is on Israel to stop the war so that Hamas can remain in power in Gaza. So if you're calling at Israel to ceasefire, you're doing the bidding of Hamas. Hamas does not want to ceasefire. They're going to do whatever it takes in order to maintain power, including hiding in the elaborated tunnel system that they build instead of building a Palestinian state and remain in power at the cost of Israeli children and Palestinian children. It's time to dehamasify Gaza. And next time you demand a ceasefire, just make sure you aim it at the right direction. As President Biden said, this is at the hands of Hamas.

๐Ÿ’ฅOmer Bartov, one of the leading scholars of the Holocaust, raised in a Zionist family, appeared on Italian television to explain how Zionism has evolved into an increasingly expansionist ideology: "October 7 was described as the largest killing of Jews since the Holocaust. Hamas was portrayed as Nazi-like, and society gave a blank check to the hundreds of thousands of reservists who were called up and sent to Gaza to level it. Today, the Holocaust is no longer seen only as an event belonging to the past, something to be commemorated, but also as a present and imminent danger, an existential threat. Yet the last real war fought by Israel was in 1973. That was the war in which I also took part. All the wars that followed have been wars of choice, fought against people who fought back in response to Israeli policies. So who, within this narrative, is supposed to represent an imminent danger to Israel? The Palestinians. Palestinians can carry out a suicide attack or launch a rocket, but they have never possessed the power to constitute an existential threat to the Israeli state. Then there is the unquestioning support from the West. European politicians, much of the media, and large parts of the academic world in Europe are terrified of being labeled antisemitic. In the West, a deep sense of guilt has developed over the Holocaust, for having participated in it, been complicit in it, or remained indifferent to it. This has facilitated Israelโ€™s attempt to secure a blank check for all of its actions by claiming that any criticism of Israeli policies, Israeli expansion, or what Israel has done in Gaza is antisemitic. In this way, a moral barrier has been created. Zionism must be abandoned because it has become an ideology that justifies genocide, and an ideology of that kind cannot be repaired. We must return to the beginning and create a state that guarantees equal rights for all of its citizens. This requires a fundamental paradigm shift. It cannot come from within. Strong pressure on Israel is needed in the form of political, economic, and military sanctions that force it to confront the limits of its power and redefine itself as a state."

Former Fox News anchor Melissa Francis shared a chilling firsthand account: while visiting a Palestinian home in the West Bank, she was told directly to her face that they wanted to kill her. Not because of something she did, but because of what she represents. She was told to take a message back to America: Israel is โ€œthe appetizer.โ€ America is โ€œthe main course.โ€ Let that sink in. For years, weโ€™ve been told that the violence against Israel is about borders, โ€˜resistance,โ€™ and โ€˜occupation,โ€™ but when a people constantly and openly declare that their fight doesnโ€™t end with Israel, that it extends to the United States and the West, the false narrative collapses. The Islamist terror groups that target Israelis are funded, trained, and ideologically fueled by the regime in Iran, and their collective stated goal has never been coexistence. It has been elimination, first of Israel, then of all Jews, then of the broader Western world. Jew-hatred has always been the canary in the coal mine. When extremists chant for the Jewish peopleโ€™s destruction, believe them. When they say America is next, believe them. This is not just Israelโ€™s fight, nor is it just a Jewish issue. Itโ€™s a civilizational, ideological one. We must confront extremist ideology with clarity and courage before the โ€œappetizerโ€ becomes the warning everyone ignored. Join us in the fight to #EndJewHatred by confronting these ideologies wherever they exist.

As Arabs, we need to understand that Israel and the West are not our oppressors or enemies. We, Arabs, are our own worst enemies. We, Arabs, are our greatest oppressors. We, Arabs, have killed and oppressed a million times more of our people than the West and Israel can ever do. It is not Israel that married off my mother when she was a child. It is my people who did. It is not the West or Israel that has been bombing Yemen for the past decade and killed 400,000. It is us, Arabs, who did it. It is not the Israel that implanted Islamic extremism in the East and the West. It is our mosques, it is the books we worship, it is the Imams we follow, it is what we learn and what we teach. It is not the West that forces us to treat women like commodities. It is our people. And most of all, it is not the West or Israel that doesnโ€™t value Arab lives. It is us, Arabs, who do not value human life. If we do not admit to ourselves that WE are the problem, that WE are refusing to progress, and that WE need to change โ€“ then change will never happen, blood will keep flowing, and we will never know peace. How do we expect the world and the International Community to respect us, when we donโ€™t respect ourselves?

Finally. The official government of Israel stood on the world stage, at the morally bankrupt, tyrant-embracing, terror-tolerating United Nations, and declared the simple truth: the Jewish people are the indigenous people of the Land of Israel. The Jewish people are called Jews because we originate from Judea (falsely called the โ€˜West Bankโ€™ of the Jordan River!). Arabs are called Arabs because they originate from Arabia! Jews have continuously lived in Israel for over 3,500 years, despite many being exiled. Both the First and Second Temples were built in Jerusalem centuries before Muhammad was born and invented Islam, back when Arabians were still pagans. Arabs only first came in the 7th century, as part of the brutal Arab Muslim conquest of the Middle East. They are the outsiders, the occupiers. Persecuting non-Muslims today as they persecuted non-Muslims for 1,400+ years. Finally, the State of Israel is proclaiming the one and only truth about the one and only indigenous people to the land of Israel! History!!! Oh, and by the way, check the archives, before 1948, when world used the term Palestinians, it referred to the Jews! Thatโ€™s why the headlines back then screamed ARABS INVADE PALESTINE!!! I love the truth!!!

Let me be the one highlighting the silver lining of the #October7 tragedy! As horrific as it was, October 7, 2023 will be remembered as the day that changed the Middle East forever... perhaps for the good. It was meant to be the end of #Israel, just like the #Holocaust was meant to be the end of the Jewish people in #Europe. Yet, thanks to the mighty Israeli army, this day will be written down in history books as the beginning of the end of #Hamas, #Hezbollah, and #Iran-sponsored terrorist organizations that have been wreaking havoc all over the Middle East for decades. It was the point when the geopolitical status quo that had empowered these terrorist organizations to dominate the Middle East region since the 1980s was broken... ... and the masks covering the ugly faces of radical Islamists and terrorism supporters in the East and the West fell off. It was the day when the state sponsors of terrorism (known as the Axis of Evil) were exposed, and their scheme to destroy the West was unveiled. It is a war on the West... What is happening now in the Middle East, and its loud echoes in American and European societies and universities, is part of the greater scheme of Iran's war on the West, Iran's war on the United States. ...and Israel has been working hard to block the ambitions of the Axis of Evil and protect not only itself but also the United States, Arab countries, and even the people of #Gaza. Hamas terrorists had not only attacked Israelis, but they also tortured and humiliated the people of Gaza for almost two decades and then used them as human shields in a war that they did not choose or want. A war that even Israel did not choose or want. A war that only Hamas and Iran wanted to fuel their greater scheme of destroying the West. Hamas threatened the security of Arab countries, including my own home country, #Egypt, and if it were not for the cooperation and help of Israel in 2013-2015, we would not have been able to get rid of the terrorists that Hamas implanted in #Sinai in the aftermath of the Arab Spring. Hamas and its fellow terrorist organizations are not only targeting the Israelis, but they have also been chasing and terrorizing liberal Muslims and Arabs like myself. That is why I applaud the Israeli army for crushing Hamas and Hezbollah and feel so ashamed of the stance of the majority of Arab states against Israel at this challenging time in the history of our region. When Hamas terrorists launched the October 7 attacks on Israeli civilians last year, I was one of only a handful number of Arabs and Muslims who dared to publicly condemn Hamas's terrorism and show support for Israel's right to defend itself. I paid a heavy price for my position in support of Israel. I was forced to leave my country after radical Islamists and also my own people in Egypt wanted to imprison and kill me because I dared to say the truth... I said, in Arabic, to the Arab audience that "Hamas is a terrorist organization and Israel is doing the right thing by chasing Hamas in Gaza, and that if Arab states are thinking straight, they should be supporting Israel in this war." Thank G-d! One year later, Israel has proved my point right, and heroically and single-headedly, the Israeli army has been combating Hamas and Hezbollah to the point of defeat. Now, Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon are almost defeated. However, the fight against the Axis of Evil that aims to dominate the Middle East and destroy the United States is still going on. Do not forget that! Well, History may also remember this day as the beginning of the end of the Islamic regime in Iran. Israelโ€™s astonishing progress on the battlefield so far makes us safely hopeful that this could really happen.

Scott Ritter: Itโ€™s time for everybody to get angry. This is not about anti-Semitism. The Netanyahu regime is a war criminal regime. This is not a Jewish problem. This is about political Zionism. Eretz Israel is finished. Itโ€™s time for Israel to be terminated as a political Zionist state because until it is, these crimes will continue. The lives of Palestinians mean nothing to them. Nothing happens in Gaza unless the Israelis deem it fit to happen. That is the definition of occupation. How is Palestine going to get their independence? Who is going to give it to them? No one. The Palestinian people had been forgotten. Only Hamas was speaking up for them. The Likud Party invented โ€œfrom the river to the sea.โ€ If Israel is politically controlled by people who say that Palestine canโ€™t exist then the only solution is that Israel canโ€™t exist and Israel must be eliminated. One way or another, the political Zionists will either learn how to peacefully live with their Palestinian neighbors or be driven into the sea.

Megyn Kelly was pro-Israel until after Gaza because enough is enough. What does that mean? What are her specific problems with how Israel handled Gaza? She doesnโ€™t tell you because of faced with an actual opponent to debate she couldnโ€™t debate herself out of a box. Thatโ€™s why they are all grandstanding demagogues. 10/7 was the largest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. There was systematic rape, mutilation, burning of families alive, documented on the perpetratorsโ€™ own cameras and 251 hostages tortured for over a year. This was not the first time. These are the people that rejected every single offer for a two state solution. They donโ€™t give a damn about statehood they want to exterminate the Jews and pretending otherwise makes you a leftist. A military campaign ensued to eliminate Hamas. The people in Gaza have been radicalized beyond belief. They celebrated the rape and mutilation of Israeli women and through parades that they brought their children to and donโ€™t you dare tell me it didnโ€™t happen because I saw it with my own two eyes on video. Israel issued warning systems that exceed most military standards. Itโ€™s not their fault that the terrorist organization that holds hostage an entire group of people in that region uses civilians for safety and cover. Operation conducted in one of the most difficult urban warfare environments ever created deliberately, by Hamas. Every single made up claim that has ever been brought forth has all been brought forth by organizations that are biased against not just Israel, but the United States of America. The Palestinian project is the same thing as the third Reich and any conservative who is not capable of separating the truth from their personal hatred of Israel or Jews should not have a national platform to speak on. This lady wouldnโ€™t survive 10 minutes in a debate with somebody who actually called her out on her bullshit.

Palestinian UN staffers got traumatized during this emergency session at the Human Rights Council, after Mosab Hassan Yousef (son of Hamas founder) ruthlessly destroyed their false narrative which always portrays Israel as the "Islamophobic aggressor" and the Palestinians as "victims" of Islamophobic oppression. It took him these 4 sentences to completely expose and destroy the lies of the Palestinian leadership: "[...] The suffering of the Palestinian people is the outcome of your selfish political interests. You are the greatest enemy of the Palestinian people. If Israel did not exist, you would have no one to blame. Take responsibility for the outcome of your own actions [...] The UN Human Rights Council held an emergency session to focus on Israel and condemn the Jewish state for its treatment of jihadist terrorists [...]" Pro-Palestinians in the West may find it hard to swallow, just like the Palestinian delegation members at the UN (please go to 0:45 in the video and take a look at their faces).
