At age 67, I remember younger days watching old WWII movies and Documentaries showing the atrocities Jews went through via The Final Solution agenda of German Nazis and their leader Adolf Hitler. The scenes of atrocities are embedded in my mind evoking disgust at the sight of seeing Jews rounded up across Europe as the Nazi war machine spread like a deadly demonic cancer: Violence, murders, rapes, thefts, Concentration Death Camps, Medical Experiments – just off the top of mind-recollection. IT WAS HORRIFIC!
I am appalled people in Western Societies are allowing a resurgence of such Jew-Hatred. ESPECIALLY at the hands of Muslims and Arabs-Who-Call-Themselves-Palestinians (no such historical people ever existed) who have encoded Jew-Hatred in their revered writings (Quran, Hadith & Sira – SEE HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE & HERE) from the days Jews rejected Muhammad as a Prophet. Muhammad then proceeded to slaughter Jews in the Arabian Peninsula [SA: HERE & HERE] in Muslim conquests first usage of ethnic cleansing to those refusing conversion to Islam. This was over a thousand years before Hitler and his Mein Kampf racial superiority creed.
How does a Jewish identity survive when history AND the Holy Bible shows thousands of years of efforts to exterminate people who identify themselves (whether Observant, non-Observant, Atheistic-yet-cling-to-identity, or etc.) as associated with Judaism. A religion in this present time so-called after the largest surviving Hebrew Tribe after the Babylonian Captivity.
(If one does the math, one probably wonders why traditionally there are 12-Tribes of the Hebrews instead of 13. Part of that reason is the Priestly Tribe of Levi were never allotted Land. The Levite Tribe was to be dedicated to Temple Service. The Tribe that would have been “Joseph” was then divided into two separate Tribes yet often called the half-tribe of Ephraim and the half-tribe of Manasseh. Those two tribes were a part of the Ten northern Tribes lost in history after Assyrian conquest and deportation.)
The Kingdom of Judah conquered by Babylon consisted of Judah and Benjamin and the Temple Levites. From Judah comes the term Jew. I’m not going to waste my time arguing between ethnicity and religious faith. That argument probably has been a thorn in the flesh of Jewish people and culture especially since the Romans forced a mass deportation of the faithful after the last Jewish revolt to Roman Rule circa 130s AD (or CE for you secular fanatics).
I have no doubt the flux of Jews settling in foreign lands contributed to a bit of assimilation to the gene pool of those foreign lands while retaining a Rabbinical Judaism. Shucks pilgrim, I can even speculate an infusion of non-Hebraic converts to Judaism occurred willing to undergo the rigor needed to becoming Jewish. Not an easy task since for male converts, that meant completing the conversion with the Covenant of Circumcision (Covenant-Keeping Orthodox Explanation at Chabad.org and lesser requirements of “Liberal” [I read Left-Wing Torah compromising] conversion that are Conservative and Reform Judaism).
Certainly Jew-Haters will disagree with my belief (theory) about Jewish Redemption in Christ. But at least dwell on a bit of honesty, trusting in Jews having an Abrahamic Covenant last minute choice in finding their Messiah in Jesus is far better than brutalizing all Jews with hate in this life.
Seek to be a Christ Follower in this Life toward all humankind, to the Jew First, then the non-Jew (Biblically labeled as Gentiles) and toward those claiming to be Christ-Follower.
5 [1]Therefore, having been justified by faith, [a]we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 3 And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces [b]perseverance; 4 and perseverance, [c]character; and character, hope. 5 Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
6 For when we were still without strength, [d]in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. 10 For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. 11 And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.

We are all watching the keffiyeh-wearing, terrorist-sympathizing, blithering idiots demonstrating on US campuses, disrupting daily lives, and calling for a final solution.
Genocide in Gaza is a fabrication by Hamas, a terrorist group, that is throwing out numbers without any facts to support them and the Muslim Brotherhood operating under the Muslim Student Association, indicted in the Holy Land Trial, pushing this lie across every campus where they have a presence.
Where is the outrage from these sympathizers when…
Five and a half million people massacred in Congo and Sudan?
Millions of Sudanese currently displaced and more than 14,000 people killed while eight convoys are blocked from getting aid to their people?
400,000 Yemenis killed and more than half the population is now in need of humanitarian assistance because of war in Yemen?
500,000 people killed in Syria?
300,000 people killed in Iraq?
250,000 people killed in Afghanistan?
Tens of thousands of Burmese forced to flee and 25% of the population is facing hunger and illness due to war in the region?
Where is your outrage over true genocides happening worldwide?
Do these people have zero value to you?
The reality is what we’re seeing right now in America is pure Jew-hatred.
It has nothing to do with genocide.
This is about their desire to see a Holocaust in our lifetime. This is their end goal.
They hate Jews so much that they are calling out loud in America in 2024 for the final solution.
We are not going to allow them to get away with this.

This Oscar-winning documentary examines the conditions for Jewish refugees after World War II, from their aspirations to emigrate to the reality of continued antisemitism.
Starring: Morgan Freeman, Israel Lau, Livia Shacter Directed by: Mark Jonathan Harris
Why did God choose the people of Israel to be a “royal priesthood” and a “holy nation” (Exodus 19:5)? Was it because of something inherently good in them? Was it because they were better than other peoples? The Lord answered this question directly, saying, “The LORD did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples. But it was because the LORD loved you and kept the oath he swore to your ancestors that he brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the land of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt.” (Deuteronomy 7:7–8)
Paul addressed this as well, writing, “For he says to Moses, ‘I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.’ It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy.” (Romans 9:15-16)
In short, Israel was chosen because of the sovereignty of God, not because of Israel’s own merit.
He set His love on Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and determined to bless the world through their offspring, meaning through the people of Israel and ultimately, through the seed of Abraham par excellence, Jesus the Messiah. And because He made unconditional promises to the patriarchs, He has kept His word through the generations, preserving the people of Israel, disciplining them, scattering them, and regathering them.
That’s the only reason we are still here (I say this as a Jewish person myself), and that’s why we are back in the Land today. This is by the sovereign will of God.
As He stated explicitly, “This is what the LORD says, he who appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars to shine by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar— the LORD Almighty is his name: ‘Only if these decrees vanish from my sight,’ declares the LORD, ‘will Israel ever cease being a nation before me.’ This is what the LORD says: ‘Only if the heavens above can be measured and the foundations of the earth below be searched out will I reject all the descendants of Israel because of all they have done.’” (Jeremiah 31:35–37)
There you have it. Israel will be preserved as a people no matter what.
We have been (and will be) judged and punished for our sins. But we will be preserved. So says the Lord.
As for Israel boasting in its own righteousness, the Lord actually said to the prophet Ezekiel, “You are not being sent to a people of obscure speech and strange language, but to the people of Israel— not to many peoples of obscure speech and strange language, whose words you cannot understand. Surely if I had sent you to them, they would have listened to you. But the people of Israel are not willing to listen to you because they are not willing to listen to me, for all the Israelites are hardened and obstinate.” (Ezekiel 3:5–7)
In short, He said, “If I sent you to prophesy to the nations, they would listen. But not My own chosen people!”
Paul reiterated this in the clearest possible terms, writing to Gentile Christians in Rome, “As far as the gospel is concerned, they [meaning the people of Israel who rejected Jesus as Messiah] are enemies for your sake; but as far as election is concerned, they are loved on account of the patriarchs, for God’s gifts and his call are irrevocable.” (Romans 11:28–29)
Israel remains elect and chosen for God’s sovereign purpose and plan. Israel still has a mission in the earth.
This does not mean that individual Jews are guaranteed salvation. Not for a moment. All of us, Jew and Gentile alike, have fallen short because of our sins, and all of us need mercy through the cross.
But this does mean that, despite Israel’s failings, God’s giftings to them remain intact and His election of them remains secure. He does not change His mind.
This should be a great comfort to Christians, a visible demonstration in the earth of the faithfulness of God. If He makes a promise, He will keep it, despite our failings and sins and shortcomings.
We stand by His goodness, not our own, by His mercy, not our righteousness. We, too, live by grace.
Unfortunately, many Christians take umbrage at the idea that the Jewish people are still chosen in any way, despite the explicit testimony of Scripture. They see this as somehow unfair.
To the contrary, God’s choosing of Israel is a reminder of His sovereignty, a testimony to His perseverance, and an ongoing, real-life example of the promise-keeping nature of our Lord.
Rather than grumbling about this, we should rejoice, recognizing that if God could break His promises to Israel, He could break His promises to the Church.
Thank God that is not who He is, and when you look at Israel today – the people worldwide and the nation in the Middle East – you’re looking at the sovereignty of God in action, right until this moment.
He can be trusted – fully.

UP FRONT:I suspect this post will inspire Jew-Haters on the Left, the Right and any in between to hurl epithets of disparagement and profanity (an indication of low intelligence) in comment sections of my Blogs or Social Media. Well boo-hoo, I’ll be blocking the low-thinkers and I will not even attempt to change those minds. I’ve tried in the past and discovered it’s a useless effort toward the dedicated Antisemite.
I rarely watch television MSM News these days, so I have not seen the coverage of college campus protests supporting the Hamas butchers as Israel has entered Gaza to punish pseudo-Palestinians for the October 7, 2023 genocide of Jewish men, women and children. [For the Jew-Hating Terrorism-Deniers and Pro-Israel Supporters alike: SEE HERE (ONLY available at CPCR due censorship), HERE, HERE, HERE & HERE.]
And I am not surprised by American Dem-Marxists and EU Leftists accusing Israel of genocide as so-called pseudo-Palestinian civilians have perished acting as Human Shields for Hamas terrorists. Yet there are numerous Conservatives such as Mike Adams (just example of many who come to mind) calling out the actions of Israel as the Gaza or ‘Palestinian’ genocide. That astounds me because most of those Conservatives berating Israel are otherwise people I admire for writing and speaking against Medical Tyranny, the Dem-Marxist political persecution of MAGA supporters and the Globalist Agenda of a ONE-World Government despotism.
When I hear the idiocy that protesters are calling for freedom when Hamas and pseudo-Palestinians in general are calling for Israel’s destruction. THAT’S NOT FREEDOM! THAT’S EVIL!
What I’m seeing on Leftist-brainwashed American campuses and across the once-upon-a-time Free World, is a Globalist instigation of social chaos all related to pushing for another World War. Alert Americans – at least – are becoming aware the Ukraine-Russia War is not only a lost cause wasteful of American taxpayer money, but also the government in Ukraine is among the most corrupt in Europe (God have mercy on the common Ukrainian citizens enduring that despotic corruption).
If the Ukraine cause is lost in causing a World War, what’s the next Globalist incitement step? VILLIFY ISRAEL by resurrecting bad old-fashioned Jew-Hating Antisemitism.
As a student of History (I actually have a Bachelor of Arts Degree in History), what is happening at this moment in time is eerily reminiscent of the social blaming against Jews in the USA and Europe in the decades between WWI and WWII.
Something to think about: The UK and France did not go to war with Hitler’s Nazi-Germany because der Fuhrer began rounding up Jews, Gypsies, the mentally deficient, Communists and so on; rather the UK and France were concerned about Germany’s expansionist agenda in Europe. The combined German and then ally Communist USSR invasion of Poland signaled to the UK and France that self-preservation was at stake. When Hitler pulled a just-kidding on alliance with Stalin coupled with siding with Japan against the USA, it was only a matter of time that resources that Hitler could not touch would be his demise.
Even so, the Nazis proceeded to exterminate as many Jews as they could (around SIX-MILLION) and what people do not realize another one-to-ten million considered-undesirables of the Nazi regime were also exterminated (Evidently historians are in disagreement on quantifying Nazi non-Jewish extermination. You can read some of those positions HERE, HERE,HERE & HERE).
John-Q-Public was not really made aware of Nazi extermination of Jews until after WWII when the death camps became a part of the Press Cycle. This is when the shame of Antisemitism began to emerge in the social conscience of the once-upon-a-time Free World.
So, how has Antisemitism once again reared it’s ugly-wicked-evil head again in the social consciousness in the confines of the once-upon-a-time Free World? As one might expect, Antisemitism reemergence has not been an overnight phenomenon.
I’m hardly a sociologist expert, but I can hazard an educated guess. Globalist ONE-World Government tyranny has been an aspiration for quite some time. And a part of that aspiration is to stir the world-wide pot causing forms of chaos leading to mass dissent which individual sovereign governments could have difficulty in managing. Especially when that management has led to a shredding of the constitutional rule of law by instituting Bureaucratic unaccountable rules and regulations exacting despotic processes nullifying legal redress in the name of imposed WOKE social norms. An example in the USA was race-baiting chaos of Antifa/BLM rioting and after that unconstitutional COVID Lockdowns and Mandates removal American Civil Rights. Add to that an Election Coup empowering Dem-Marxists in the Executive Branch and a politicized Judicial Branch to politically persecute Biblical Christians, MAGA Supporters and those who revere American Patriotism.
The goal of Globalist Elitists looking for ONE-World control is to neutralize dissent. One of the best ways to neutralize dissent are Endless Wars and the vilification of certain Classes of people. I already mentioned that Class of people in America. In the case of WORLD-WIDE, that vilification falls upon Jews. And though Jews live all over the once-upon-a-time Free World, that makes Jewish-State of Israel at target of the Globalist Elitists.
The irony is that many of the Globalist Elitists supporting this agenda are themselves people of a Jewish heritage. And most of these Leftist Jews have abandoned their Covenant relationship with the Almighty via atheism (embracing Marxism in many cases) or have watered down their Judaism via Reformed theology. Thus Leftist Jews practicing a diluted Judaism accept immoral godless concepts as the LGBTQ movement and Baby-Killing (aka Abortion) as normal.
As a side note: The Covenant of Promises flowing through Abraham becomes important through some clarity in the Fall of Adam and Eve from intimate fellowship the Almighty Creator. So let’s take a look at the Fall and the prophetic Word about Satan’s – the Deceiver – ultimate demise.
3 1Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?”
2 And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden; 3 but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die.’ ”
4 Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was[a]pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.
The Deceiver thus deceived. Adam and Eve did not die physically, died spiritually by becoming separated from the Almighty and transferring the authority God gave to Adam by rebellion to Satan.
THEN the Fallen Nature of Adam and Eve becomes apparent as the finger-pointing blame game ensues.
“Because you have done this, You are cursed more than all cattle, And more than every beast of the field; On your belly you shall go, And you shall eat dust All the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel.”
Verse 15 is the key to understand Satan’s agenda to attempt to thwart a “Seed” being born from a woman that will smack Satan’s head around and stomp Satan so hard with HIS feet, that the MAN’s heel is bruised. ALSO NOTE the part of verse 15 that God Almighty said, “And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed”.
In verse 15 the Almighty is not speaking of a human female’s egg, rather HE is speaking of the Divine “Seed” HE Divinely implants (NOT a sex act but rather a Holy placement) in a chosen female’s egg. A kind of Divine in vitro process.
THUS, Satan was made fully aware – because the ALMIGHTY informed him – that a human produced by Divine Seed in a fertilized female’s egg was to become the source of rebellious Satan’s undoing.
Satan’s awareness of how the Almighty would bring about his demise as the stolen lease lord of the Earth was to find ways to warp the DNA of humanity (Gen. 6: 1-8). When that didn’t work, Satan kept his evil eye out for the human female who might be the chosen vessel for the Divine “Seed”.
The Almighty’s Covenant with Abraham narrowed Satan’s search.
Satan began the process of attempting to corrupt and/or destroy the Promised descendants of Abraham through Sarah.
I encourage you to read your Old Testament to take note of many times the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob chose to be wicked in the sight of the Almighty AND REALIZE those choices were under the Satanic/demonic influencing. In way too many sad cases, those rebellious-to-God choices probably led to eternal damnation by not repenting of bad choices. Even in the Old Testament one can see actual repentance showed God’s Mercy was provided. The most classic example is King David. For all David’s obedience and exploits under God’s anointing, David earned the moniker A MAN AFTER GOD’S OWN HEART. Even so, David made his share of bad choices which I believe was under Satan’s influence to corrupt a godly line from which a future female vessel would have the Divine Seed implanted. Premiere of the bad choices was lusting after a married woman (Bathsheba) who was a spouse of the valiant soldier Uriah. David committed adultery with Bathsheba producing a pregnancy. Ultimately David commanded Uriah’s death by warfare to marry pregnant Bathsheba. God’s Judgment, the baby would die. David repented of his sin. God’s Mercy: Bathsheba gave birth to another son who would eventually be King Solomon. THE STORY HERE.
It would be David’s descendants that the Divine Seed would eventually find Mary the mother of Jesus the Son of God. (In case one wonders for the reason of two a bit different genealogies in the New Testament, the human stepfather (Joseph) who raised Jesus was also a descendant of David. THIS IS THE CLOSEST EXPLANATION I have an affinity toward.)
These are my initial thoughts on the persistent acts of Antisemitism that began – all the way back to Genesis 3: 14-15.
There are volumes of Old Testament Scriptures of Satan influencing the descendants of Abraham through Sarah to make bad and rebellious decisions. There are too many to enumerate in this post. I will show a few beginning in spot after Moses was the instrument to deliver the 12 Tribes of Israel from Egyptian slavery.
16 1Now Korah the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, with Dathan and Abiram the sons of Eliab, and On the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men;2 and they rose up before Moses with some of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty leaders of the congregation, representatives of the congregation, men of renown. 3 They gathered together against Moses and Aaron, and said to them, “You[a]take too much upon yourselves, for all the congregation is holy, every one of them, and the Lord is among them. Why then do you exalt yourselves above the assembly of the Lord?”
4 So when Moses heard it, he fell on his face; 5 and he spoke to Korah and all his company, saying, “Tomorrow morning the Lord will show who is His and who is holy,[b] and will cause him to come near to Him. That one whom He chooses He will cause to come near to Him.
20 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, 21 “Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.”
22 Then they fell[a] on their faces, and said, “O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and You be angry with all the congregation?”
23 So the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 24 “Speak to the congregation, saying, ‘Get away from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.’ ”
25 Then Moses rose and went to Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel followed him. 26 And he spoke to the congregation, saying, “Depart now from the tents of these wicked men! Touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins.” 27 So they got away from around the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram; and Dathan and Abiram came out and stood at the door of their tents, with their wives, their sons, and their little children.
28 And Moses said: “By this you shall know that the Lord has sent me to do all these works, for I have not done them of my own will. 29 If these men die naturally like all men, or if they are visited by the common fate of all men, then the Lord has not sent me. 30 But if the Lord creates a new thing, and the earth opens its mouth and swallows them up with all that belongs to them, and they go down alive into the pit, then you will understand that these men have rejected the Lord.”
31 Now it came to pass, as he finished speaking all these words, that the ground split apart under them, 32 and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, with their households and all the men with Korah, with all their goods. 33 So they and all those with them went down alive into the pit; the earth closed over them, and they perished from among the assembly. 34 Then all Israel who were around them fled at their cry, for they said, “Lest the earth swallow us up also!”
35 And a fire came out from the Lord and consumed the two hundred and fifty men who were offering incense.
36 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 37 “Tell Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, to pick up the censers out of the blaze, for they are holy, and scatter the fire some distance away. 38 The censers of these men who sinned [b]against their own souls, let them be made into hammered plates as a covering for the altar. Because they presented them before the Lord, therefore they are holy; and they shall be a sign to the children of Israel.”
13 1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Send men to spy out the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the children of Israel; from each tribe of their fathers you shall send a man, every one a leader among them.”
3 So Moses sent them from the Wilderness of Paran according to the command of the Lord, all of them men who were heads of the children of Israel.
21 So they went up and spied out the land from the Wilderness of Zin as far as Rehob, near the entrance of Hamath.
25 And they returned from spying out the land after forty days.
26 Now they departed and came back to Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the children of Israel in the Wilderness of Paran, at Kadesh; they brought back word to them and to all the congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land. 27 Then they told him, and said: “We went to the land where you sent us. It truly [a]flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit. 28 Nevertheless the people who dwell in the land are strong; the cities are fortified and very large; moreover we saw the descendants of Anak there. 29 The Amalekites dwell in the land of the South; the Hittites, the Jebusites, and the Amorites dwell in the mountains; and the Canaanites dwell by the sea and along the banks of the Jordan.”
30 Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, “Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it.”
31 But the men who had gone up with him said, “We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we.” 32 And they gave the children of Israel a bad report of the land which they had spied out, saying, “The land through which we have gone as spies is a land that devours its inhabitants, and all the people whom we saw in it are men of great stature. 33 There we saw the [b]giants (the descendants of Anak came from the giants); and we were like[c] grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight.”
6 But Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were among those who had spied out the land, tore their clothes; 7 and they spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying: “The land we passed through to spy out is an exceedingly good land. 8 If the Lord delights in us, then He will bring us into this land and give it to us, ‘a land which flows with milk and honey.’ 9 Only do not rebel against the Lord, nor fear the people of the land, for they[a]are our bread; their protection has departed from them, and the Lord is with us. Do not fear them.”
10 And all the congregation said to stone them with stones. Now the glory of the Lord appeared in the tabernacle of meeting before all the children of Israel.
11 Then the Lord said to Moses: “How long will these people reject[b] Me? And how long will they not believe Me, with all the [c]signs which I have performed among them? 12 I will strike them with the pestilence and disinherit them, and I will make of you a nation greater and mightier than they.”
13 And Moses said to the Lord: “Then the Egyptians will hear it, for by Your might You brought these people up from among them, 14 and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land. They have heard that You, Lord, are among these people; that You, Lord, are seen face to face and Your cloud stands above them, and You go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night. 15 Now if You kill these people as one man, then the nations which have heard of Your fame will speak, saying, 16 ‘Because the Lord was not able to bring this people to the land which He swore to give them, therefore He killed them in the wilderness.’ 17 And now, I pray, let the power of my Lord be great, just as You have spoken, saying, 18 ‘The Lord is longsuffering and abundant in mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression; but He by no means clears the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation.’ 19 Pardon the iniquity of this people, I pray, according to the greatness of Your mercy, just as You have forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.”
20 Then the Lord said: “I have pardoned, according to your word; 21 but truly, as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord— 22 because all these men who have seen My glory and the signs which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have put Me to the test now these ten times, and have not heeded My voice, 23 they certainly shall not see the land of which I [d]swore to their fathers, nor shall any of those who rejected Me see it. 24 But My servant Caleb, because he has a different spirit in him and has followed Me fully, I will bring into the land where he went, and his descendants shall inherit it.

a. Numbers 14:9 They shall be as food for our consumption.
When Joshua finally led the invasion to Possess the Promised Land from the Canaanites, the Almighty’s instructions were to exterminate the Canaanites because their godlessness had surpassed the point of mercy. The issue of destruction had zero to with racial superiority versus racial inferiority. Rather the issue was immoral godlessness on par with the past destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. An interesting insight in relation to the Promised Land and the wickedness of those dwelling in the land of Canaan at Deuteronomy 9.
Unfortunately, Joshua’s led invasion failed to complete the task of possessing the Land. One can read the Book of Judges of the ebb and flow Israel sins and God’s Mercy. In the last three chapters of Judges (19, 20 & 21) relates on how the Tribe of Benjamin had become so corrupted by immorality (especially homosexuality but not limited to that sin), that the entire Tribe was nearly obliterated. It’s a lot to post, so I decided just to provide the NKJV summary I was going to post: Judges 19: 18-30; 20: 1-48; 21: 1-25 NKJV.
From King Saul, King David, King Solomon and followed by the division between 10 Northern Tribes (Israel – capital city Samaria) dividing from the 2 Southern Tribes (Kingdom of Judah [Tribes – Judah & Benjamin] – capital city Jerusalem. Home of the Temple of God and David’s lineage).
The Northern Kingdom descended into the worship of other gods specifically breaking the Commandments given to Moses in Exodus 20: 1-5 NKJV:
20 1And God spoke all these words, saying:
2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of [a]bondage.
3 “You shall have no other gods before Me.
4 “You shall not make for yourself a carved image—any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; 5 you shall not bow down to them nor [b]serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting[c] the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me,
Without going into specific guessing. The Northern Israelites (probably the intelligentsia class) were deported by conquering Assyria. A few faithful worshipers of Yahweh God Almighty escaped to Judah (An interesting discussion on the lost 10 at Jewish website Chabad.org). Assyria colonized the conquered land. Just guessing: The deported Israelites essentially disappear from history probably because they had become so paganized, those that survived deportation probably assimilated into the cultures they resided in.
The Kingdom of Judah (from whence the modern term “Jew” derives) lasted roughly a hundred years longer after Assyria conquered Israel – the Northern Kingdom. Judah had an array of good and bad Kings. The good being dedicated to Yahweh and the bad either partially or completely pagan in their devotion. The last Kings fit the bad-bill so much, Judah was conquered by Babylon. The intelligentsia class of Judah were deported en masse to Babylon where under the tutelage of such Prophets like Daniel reorganized their Faith from Temple Worship to at least the beginnings of how Judaism is practiced today.
After Babylon was conquered by the Medo-Persians, those Jews who chose to return to their Homeland, did so. BUT not as a kingdom, rather to be ruled by Persia and later other foreign powers (with a brief interlude of Hasmonean dynasty independent rule [Short Version & Long Version]). Ultimately Roman rulers grew weary of Jewish rebellions causing the 2nd Jewish deportation/Diaspora also changing the name of the area to a Latinized version of the Philistines (Syria Palaestina) the ancient enemies of Israel (where “Palestine” comes from). Two histories of Roman instituted Diaspora: HERE & HERE.
It is after this last expulsion of Jews by the Romans with the emergence of Christianity (among Gentiles) and later Islamic conquests (Jew-hatred encoded in Muslim revered writings of Quran, Hadith & Sira) that Antisemitism becomes an on-and-off repeat in severity.
The first Christians were Jews. As Christianity spread among non-Jewish Gentiles, somehow (probably jealousy) Jew-Hatred emerges when Christian Clergy began teaching (NOT from the Bible) such distortions as “Christ-Killers” (when actually a twisted Jewish Sanhedrin collaborated with Roman rule to Crucify Jesus who had a primarily Jewish following) and idiot blood-libels accusing Jews of sacrificing Christian babies. Both Jew-Hating Christians take the fabricated (thus often labelled a forgery) “Protocols of the (Learned) Elders of Zion” written to imply Jews exist to execute world domination as gospel-fact. More up-to-date on the Protocols history and forgery like to excuse George Soros (a Jewish heritage, but definitely a Leftist Covenant-Breaker) trying to disassociate his money from supporting Leftist causes implying those links are an act of Antisemitism. In my opinion Soros’s actions with his money makes him an Antisemite. Thus, here are some pretty good histories of the Antisemitic Protocols until you get to Soros exoneration: HERE, HERE & HERE.
It is people with a Jewish heritage yet have profoundly abandoned their Jewish Covenant with the Almighty that has fueled a current social Antisemitism that rivals the decades between WWI and WWII. A examples: George Soros, Yuval Noah Harari (HERE, HERE & HERE), Leon Trotsky and (ironically because of Left orientation) Wikipedia explores dedicated Leftist Jews to which I question their dedication to Covenant. It is my opinion – which I hope I’m wrong about – that the current growing Antisemitism will be a primary ember inflaming a WWIII. God have Mercy on us all, if that happens.

If this post survives Blogger censors, PLEASE promote it on your Social Media outlets.]
For some upfront clarity, I’m Pro-Israel as in I trust the Word of God (The Holy Bible – NOT the demonic theology based on the Quran or the Book of Mormon or Leftist Biblical-rewritten interpretations that conform to Woke-Transformation).
So, I don’t follow Replacement Theology (as in Christians REPLACE Jews in the Promises of God). Rather I trust God’s Word where it states non-Jews (for that matter – non-members of the 12-Tribes of Israel) who BELIEVE Jesus the Son of God (the first-born son of the then Virgin Mary as the human agency vehicle to Redeem the Fallen descendants of Adam and Eve) died on the Cross then Resurrected bodily from death to life sitting at the Right-Hand of the Father. AND that those who BELIEVE (both Jew & Gentile) in the Risen-Savior Jesus are REDEEMED from Adam’s bequeathed Fallen Nature and are NOW new creations in Christ Jesus. MEANING: Christians who are non-Jews have become adopted (NOT REPLACING) into the very Covenants and Promises of God made to the genealogical line descending through Abraham, Isaac (NOT Ishmael) and Jacob (NOT Esau). THE KEY: Not Replacing, but rather joined by engrafting by the Redeeming Blood of Jesus – the Lamb of God.
That being said… I’m fully aware there are Jews today who still have pride in their Jewish heritage genealogically (whether by blood descent or descended from converted Jews who are so by Covenant. E.g., Rahab [SEE HERE & HERE] and Ruth [SEE HERE, HERE & HERE] to name a few), but have conformed to ungodly Covenant-Breaking (as in rebellious to God’s original Covenant) Left-Wing ideology that essentially makes them Jewish In Name Only. AND there are Jews by descent who have openly repudiated their ancestry by adopting atheism or the atheistic practices of Communism (Infamous Communists who had a Jewish ancestry: Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin & MORE). I am confidant if I performed a search of Communists who had a long religious genealogical pedigree that included Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Confucianism, Hinduism and so on; THAT LIST of Communist-atheists would be quite lengthy. AND YET it is the Antisemitic Jew-Haters who like to pin Communism exclusively to Jews and so condemn all Jews as evil. CAN ANYONE see the idiocy in blaming all Jews for the same things that former Christians, Muslims, Buddhist and so on have also embraced to the detriment of Individual Liberty and Freedom?
AND SO, as a Redeemed Christian and a Joint-Heir to the Covenants and Promises given by God to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; I SUPPORT ISRAEL. I support Israel’s right to be a HOMELAND to Jews. I support this because it is my belief that eventually Jesus will RETURN. And the Covenant-Keeping Jews who DO NOT TRUST Christians because of thousands of years of persecuting Jews over distorted and fabricated lies of Christ-killers (REMEMBER the first Christians were Jewish and it was jealous Pharisee and Sadducee leaders concerned about loosing their station that promoted the crucifixion of Jesus to Romans who actually killed Jesus) will recognize their true Messiah.
As a Covenant Supporter of Israel’s Right to exist. I AM NOT a supporter of Arabs who have adopted the name Palestinian to steal the Biblical Land Promised by God Almighty to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. There is ZERO history of a Palestinian people. The Arab refugees who holed up in Judea-Samaria (named the West Bank by Jordanian [actually British led Jordanian Army] conquerors) and the Gaza Strip after 1948 Israel Independence overcame multiple Arab armies who came to exterminate Jews. Every Arab-Israeli War since 1948 and every pseudo-Palestinian Terrorist attack on Israel the creation PLO and other pseudo-Palestinian terrorist organizations (e.g., Hamas) has been to exterminate Jews from their Biblical HOMELAND.
Frankly, I’m a bit mystified at how many fellow Conservatives have joined a bandwagon to condemn Israel for punishing Hamas and their pseudo-Palestinian supporters. Even accusing Israel of genocide for finally deciding to eradicate Hamas. The cry that innocent civilians are in the crosshairs of Israel is absurd after the fact is understood these civilians are willing [as in NOT FORCED] human shields for their Hamas overlords. The pseudo-Palestinians were and are fully supportive of the killing, maiming and raping of all Jews. I feel no sympathy with that Jew-Hatred attitude.
I’m certain this will rub the idiot supporters of the pseudo-Palestinians the wrong way. That includes Leftist Jews who moronically believe a Palestinian State will bring peace to the Middle East. It will not bring peace. A Jew-Hating Palestinian State will only bring a launching pad to bring more Islamic terrorist attacks to maim, rape, and kill Jews and any Christians and/or Americans who happen to get in the way.

October 7th Investigative Report: Sadistic Sexual Assaults Carried Out Systematically and Deliberately by Hamas; Identical Patterns of Action Repeated in Each Attack Zone
The ritualistic rapes and genital mutilations and murders executed by Hamas and allies on October 7th symbolically demonstrate that their intent was Jewish genocide. Furthermore, the burning of the bodies refers back symbolically to the Nazi genocide against the Jews. Today the number of Jews worldwide is only approximately 15 million – less than in 1939.
“Silent Cry: Special Report of the Association of Rape Crisis Centers in Israel Content Warning: The report contains graphic descriptions of sexual abuse, torture, and murder.
Abstract
Hamas’s attack on October 7 included brutal sexual assaults, carried out systematically and deliberately towards Israeli civilians. Numerous testimonies and pieces of disclosed and classified information present a clear picture of identical patterns of action repeated in each of the attack zones – the Nova Festival, private homes in the Gaza envelope kibbutzim, and IDF bases. With the abduction of 254 individuals to the Gaza Strip areas, sexual assaults continued to occur also in this arena. Therefore, there is a high likelihood that the kidnapped women and men in Hamas captivity are still at risk of sexual abuse at any given moment.
Hamas’s attack included violent acts of rape, accompanied by threats with weapons, and in some cases targeted towards injured women. Many of the rapes were carried out as a group, with the participation of violent terrorists. Often, the rape was perpetrated in front of an audience – partners, family, or friends – in a manner intended to increase the pain and humiliation of all present. Hamas terrorists hunted young women and men who fled the Nova festival, and according to testimonies, dragged them by their hair amid screams. The actions targeted women, girls, and men. In most cases, the victims were killed after or even during the rape.
A series of testimonies, interviews, and additional sources attest that Hamas terrorists employed sadistic practices aimed at intensifying the degree of humiliation and terror inherent in sexual violence. Many of the bodies of sexual crime victims were found bound and shackled. The genitals of both women and men were brutally mutilated, and sometimes weapons were inserted into them. The terrorists did not stop at shooting; they also cut and mutilated sexual organs and other body parts with knives.
This report is the result of an initial examination of all the public and classified information, interviews, and testimonies that can be revealed at this time, which will likely increase with time. The report clearly demonstrates that sexual abuse was not an isolated incident or sporadic cases but rather a clear operational strategy.
“We know they were raped in Hamas captivity’: Chilling details of what hostages faced By KIM HJELMGAARD, 12-20-23, USA TODAY “Israeli medical professionals and morgue workers said many women who died on Oct. 7 were found with broken legs and pelvic bones. They said the severity of the mutilations they examined were such that it was not always possible to distinguish female from male victims. At least one survivor of the attack who was at the Supernova music festival has told Israel police she witnessed a gang rape… sexual assault appears not to have been confined to Oct. 7. Two Israeli doctors, who have been treating released hostages, and an Israeli military official familiar with the matter confirmed to USA TODAY that some released hostages revealed they suffered violent sexual assaults in captivity.” https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2023/12/20/hamas-sexual-violence-rape-hostages-oct-7/71917113007/
“Israel Gaza: Hamas raped and mutilated women on 7 October, BBC hears
Published 5 December 2023 By Lucy Williamson Middle East correspondent, Jerusalem
The BBC has seen and heard evidence of rape, sexual violence and mutilation of women during the 7 October Hamas attacks. WARNING: CONTAINS EXTREMELY GRAPHIC DESCRIPTIONS OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE AND RAPE Several people involved in collecting and identifying the bodies of those killed in the attack told us they had seen multiple signs of sexual assault, including broken pelvises, bruises, cuts and tears, and that the victims ranged from children and teenagers to pensioners….” https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-67629181
“this was part of the plan. These were the orders. A report analyzing the use of sexual violence by Hamas based on numerous testimonies from victims, First Responders and witnesses reveals that nothing happened just spontaneously. It was all pre-planned.
They planned the sexual violence. They planned the torture. They planned the uploading of it. Every single one of the fighters came with the GoPro. They uploaded it as they went along…” Miri Eisin quote from: “Israel compiles evidence of sexual assault in Oct.7 attack” i24news, 21 Feb 2024 https://youtu.be/H0jseTtO5ak
News Release from the Israeli government, which includes the link to the document:
“ARCCI submits first report regarding Hamas October 7 attack to the UN Publish Date 21.02.2024 The report clearly demonstrates that this is not a “malfunction” or isolated incident but a clear operational strategy involving systematic, targeted sexual abuse. The report focuses on sexual and gender-based violence during the massacre of October 7, 2023, and the war that ensued, serving as a primary testimonial foundation indicating widespread sexual crimes.
Orit Sulitzeanu, CEO of the Association of Rape Crisis Centers in Israel, stated, “The report, submitted to decision-makers at the UN, leaves no room for denial or disregard. The terrorist organization Hamas chose to harm Israel strategically in two clear ways – kidnapping citizens and committing sadistic sexual crimes. Silence is no longer an option. We expect international organizations to take a clear stance; we cannot stand on the sidelines. Silence will be remembered as a historical stain on those who chose to remain silent and deny the sexual crimes committed by Hamas.”
The report is the first official research since October 7, consolidating evidence and providing conclusions. The report clearly demonstrates that this is not a “malfunction” or isolated incident but a clear operational strategy involving systematic, targeted sexual abuse. The report focuses on sexual and gender-based violence during the massacre of October 7, 2023, and the war that ensued, serving as a primary testimonial foundation indicating widespread sexual crimes. The report was written by, Dr. Carmit Klar Chalamish, head of the research department at the Association of Rape Crisis Centers in Israel, and Noga Berger, director of content at the organization.
Methodology
The report analyzes numerous confidential and public pieces of information, including testimonies, interviews with official and non-official first responders, information permitted for publication in various media outlets, and direct information received by the ARCCI. After gathering the information, a cataloging and analysis process was undertaken to map the areas and patterns of sexual crimes. The report does not provide quantitative information due to the nature of the events, most of which resulted in the victims’ deaths, making their full extent unknown and possibly unknowable. Findings
The report finds that the Hamas attack included brutal acts of violent rape, often involving threats with weapons, specifically directed towards injured women. Many rape incidents occurred collectively, with collaboration among the perpetrating terrorists. In some cases, rape was conducted in front of an audience, such as partners, family, or friends, to increase the pain and humiliation for all present. Some Hamas members pursued victims who escaped the massacre, dragging them by their hair with screams. The majority of victims were subsequently killed during or after the sexual assault.
Several testimonies, interviews, and additional sources indicate the use of sadistic practices by Hamas terrorists, aimed at intensifying the humiliation and fear of sexual abuse. Many victims’ bodies were found mutilated and bound, with sexual organs brutally attacked, and in some cases, weapons were inserted into them. Some bodies were discovered deliberately booby-trapped. It is essential to note that the report details only information from identified sources permitted for publication, while analysis includes additional confidential information that cannot be disclosed publicly. Analysis of the information reveals that sexual and gender-based violence occurred systematically in 4 arenas:
1. Nova Festival (Re’im music festival) –testimonies from survivors significantly indicate severe sexual assaults in the festival arena. There are eyewitness and earwitness testimonies of group rape. These testimonies align with descriptions from first responders and corpse-handling personnel.
2. Kibbutzim – Testimonies from first responders and corpse-handling personnel reveal signs of sexual assault in the scenes of the massacre. Many cases involve heinous attacks on women and girls, including a case of hiding a knife in a genital organ. Additional information was received by the ARCCI but cannot be disclosed due to privacy concerns.
3. IDF bases – Bodies of female soldiers arriving at the “Shura” camp exhibited clear signs of sexual violence,
4. Captivity – Information regarding sexual assaults in captivity has been published following the testimonies of those who returned from captivity. These testimonies include various cases, including those of captives who are still alive.
According to Dr. Carmit Klar-Chalamish and Noga Berger, the report’s authors,
“The brutal practices used on October 7, such as genital mutilation of girls, women, and men, shooting, and weapon insertion, were designed to destroy and inflict sadistic terror.
The manner in which these assaults were carried out aimed to reinforce their impact on the victims and their communities, which failed to prevent the harm.
As the scars in our hearts refuse to heal, and the souls of our sisters and brothers cry out to us from the depths of the earth, a significant portion of those we considered partners responded in silence and denial of these horrors.
We call on you to raise your voices and not allow the cries of these victims to fade away.” About the Association of Rape Crisis Centers in Israel The Association of Rape Crisis Centers in Israel was founded in 1990 as an umbrella organization, bringing together nine rape crisis centers across the country, addressing around 50,000 calls each year. The organization operates as an agency for social change, complementing and relying on the individual work carried out at the centers. The ARCCI works to promote rights and services for survivors of sexual abuse, adopt preventive measures, and reduce the prevalence of the phenomenon in Israel. The various services provided by the rape crisis centers and the ARCCI are the result of over three decades of experience, creating a professional knowledge base regarding the characteristics and implications of sexual assault on survivors and society as a whole.
An especially important point in the report, since Hamas refused to release the men: “Medical teams that treated the hostages who were released from captivity reported that men were also sexually assaulted in captivity.”

Yet the two most comprehensive genocidal tribunals, the International Criminal Tribunal for Yugoslavia (ICTY) and the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR), refrained from charging criminals with genocide when their victims are male. This Article will address how males, similarly to female, have been victims of genocide in the forms of genocidal rape and sexual violence, and will argue that the ICTY and ICTR should have used the 1948 Convention’s definition of genocide to achieve the goals of the United Nations”. https://scholarship.law.duke.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1555&context=djcil
“Sexual homicides consist of two key components: the homicide of a person and the sexual behavior of the perpetrator. The homicide may be an impulsive…. or an act meticulously planned for days or even weeks before the attack… Sexual behavior may occur prior to, during and/or after the homicide…. and may even be symbolically expressed through genital mutilation of the victim.” (“Sexual homicide: Brief review of the literature and case report involving rape, genital mutilation and human arson” Maria-Valeria Karakasi a, Epameinondas Vasilikos a, Polichronis Voultsos b, Aikaterini Vlachaki a, Pavlos Pavlidis c Journal of Forensic and Legal Medicine Volume 46, February 2017, Pages 1-10 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1752928X16301664?via%3Dihub

There are many Liberty-minded Conservatives for which I continue to have admiration EVEN THOUGH they condemn Israel for vigilantly as well as violently making an effort to exterminate the Jew-Hating Islamic Terrorist organization Hamas. Their reasoning for condemning Israel: “Those poor innocent Palestinian civilians are in the crossfire so Israel is guilty of committing genocide.”
REALLY?!?
If anyone bothers to check some facts, those so-called innocent civilians who are nothing more than Arabs who call themselves Palestinians (There is NO such heritage of such a people existing with an Arab ancestry!!!) are not only virulently supporting Hamas terrorism, murder and mayhem BUT ALSO participating alongside Hamas.
Melanie Phillips shares some details on her Substack Page that should bring some clarity to Conservatives. NONETHELESS, to those infected with blame ALL Jews (even though there are both Covenant-Breaking [Leftist] Jews and Covenant-Keeping Jews) for the woes of the world, blaming Jews for genocide rather than self-preservation will always be the first option.
AND NOW, learn the Melanie Phillips facts on the NOT so innocent Arabs calling themselves Palestinians.

In the current war in the Middle East, it’s a given that a distinction must be drawn between Hamas and the “ordinary” Palestinian Arab residents of Gaza.
This distinction, however, is largely spurious.
An article in The Washington Free Beacon that drew upon interviews given to Israeli TV by freed hostages has confirmed that ordinary Gazans were deeply involved in the October 7 pogrom and subjected the hostages to cruelty, abuse and starvation.
Nili Margalit recounted how Gazan “civilians, regular people” took her hostage at knifepoint in the October 7 attack. Margalit said a “boy … 17, maybe 18 years old” and an “older man with the knife” broke down the door of her home in Kibbutz Nir Oz and forced her, barefoot and in pyjamas, into a stolen golf cart.
Margalit said she saw a “mob, thousands of people,” including “women and children,” pouring across Israel’s breached border with Gaza less than two miles away.
She saw two boys, one “no more than four or five years old” and the other 15 or 16, riding an all-terrain vehicle that belonged to her father, a cattle breeder who was among those murdered that day. The boys had apparently already made one trip from Nir Oz to Gaza and were returning for another round of carnage.
A number of the freed hostages said they spent part of their captivity in family homes, hospitals and other civilian sites in Gaza where they were locked into rooms, starved and ill-treated.
Mia Schem, who was shot in the arm and abducted from the Supernova music festival, said her captors brought her directly to a hospital in Gaza as she was bleeding to death.
Schem then received no further treatment or even pain medication. She was taken to a private home where a man and his family held her captive with “pure hate,” forbidding her to speak, cry or move. She would go days without receiving food and was never allowed to bathe.
Bad as their conditions were, the hostages’ captors repeatedly told them that their lives would be at risk if they were discovered by ordinary Gazans. The hostages hardly needed any such warning.
Sharon Aloni Cunio recalled how she and her twin three-year-old daughters were mobbed on October 7 as terrorists brought them into Gaza on a tractor from their home in Nir Oz. “People start beating everyone who was sitting on the tractor — just beating us, from all sides. It was horrific,” she said.
The testimony of the freed hostages carries particular weight because these aren’t extreme nationalists. They are Israelis who, in general, were until October 7 the most fervent believers in peaceful coexistence with the Palestinian Arabs, ferrying Gaza residents to hospital in Israel and establishing many bonds with them.
They believed that whatever the failings of Palestinian leaders, the Palestinian people just wanted to live alongside them in peace and security. Now they say something very different. “I experienced hell. Everyone there are terrorists,” said Schem. “There are no innocent civilians, not one.”
Agam Goldstein-Almog, who was abducted with her mother and two younger siblings after Hamas murdered her father and elder sister in their homes in Kfar Aza, said: “If we previously believed that there was a chance for peace, we’ve lost all faith in these people, especially after we were there and among the population.”
Nor are most Arabs living in the disputed territories of Judea and Samaria any different. Between October 7 and January 15, Rescuers Without Borders recorded more than 2,600 attacks targeting Israeli civilians and soldiers, including 760 cases of rock-throwing, 551 fire bombings, 12 attempted or successful stabbings and nine vehicular assaults.
The IDF has been fighting heavy battles in these territories to thwart attacks and destroy terrorist infrastructure. In recent weeks, it’s been investigating possible infiltration tunnels discovered near Jewish communities in the Hebron Hills in Judea and Shiloh in Samaria’s Binyamin region.
The Palestinian Authority has never condemned the October 7 pogrom; on the contrary, its main party, Fatah, has repeatedly extolled the atrocities. A poll published by the Palestinian Centre for Policy and Survey Research showed support for Hamas in Judea and Samaria more than tripled after October 7, with no fewer than 82 per cent of Arabs there supporting the attack and 70 per cent of them supporting the “armed struggle” against Israel.
In any moral universe, a set of people bent upon exterminating another would be treated as pariahs by the international community and their rights would be considered forfeit.
Yet America is even now insisting that the “route to peace” is through a Palestinian state that must be ruled by a “revitalised” and “reformed” PA.
There’s zero chance of any such reform. Such a state would merely revitalise the capacity of the Palestinian Arabs to inflict yet more genocidal attacks on Israel.
America and Britain remain wedded to the “two-state solution” because they refuse to acknowledge that this conflict is not over a division of land. Instead, it is a war of annihilation against the Jewish homeland that has lasted for almost 100 years.
Moreover, the reason the conflict still endures is the behaviour of the west itself.
Led by Britain in the 1930s, the west has consistently rewarded and incentivised Arab aggressors bent on destroying Israel, while it has prevented Israel from taking the measures necessary to see off the threat once and for all.
The essential prerequisite for any solution is for the west to withdraw support for Palestinian aggression and unequivocally back Israeli self-defence. Deprived of both western funding and validation, the Palestinian agenda would fall apart.
Instead, the west continues to promote the murderous fiction that there are “good” Palestinians who deserve a state of their own — which would be a terror state with Israel at its mercy.
The west’s lethal error goes even deeper. America and the UK have failed to realise that, just as Hamas can’t be divorced from the Palestinians but are part of the same genocidal entity, so the war against Israel is merely the most neuralgic element of a civilisational war between the Muslim world and the west.
That war was declared in 1979, when the Islamic revolution in Iran galvanised and radicalised Sunni as well as Shi’ite Muslims across the world, helping to create al Qaeda.
The new Iranian regime declared war on the west and has prosecuted that war ever since with virtually no pushback. Instead, western appeasement has helped finance and bolster Iran’s terrorism, proxy wars and quest for hegemony.
That catastrophic strategy, combined with the west’s continued financing and support of the Palestinian agenda, enabled the Hamas pogrom and onslaught on Israel from multiple fronts in Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, Judea and Samaria.
This already metastasising conflict is feared to presage a world war in which Russia and China join Iran against a west which has shown such lamentable enfeeblement in the Middle East. [Blog Editor: Hmm… Sounds like a Gog – Magog & Revelation description to me. Perspectives: HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE & HERE.]
Britain and America do not only insist that “bad” Hamas is different from the “good” Palestinians. They similarly claim that al Qaeda, ISIS and other radical Islamists are merely rogue actors in an otherwise unthreatening Muslim world.
Both Britain and America have accordingly failed to recognise how jihadis intent upon conquering the west for Islam — as Hamas has said is its own ultimate aim —have tunnelled into British and American democratic structures and institutions as devastatingly as they have tunnelled into Israel from Gaza and Lebanon.
As a result of myopia, muddled thinking and moral cowardice, America and Britain are not just aiming to ensure that an Israel they protect from outright annihilation will nevertheless continue to twist in the murderous Islamist wind. They have also advertised to the enemies of civilisation that the west itself is ripe for conquest.
My most recent exclusive post for my premium subscribers argued that the British government’s attitude towards Islamism remains dangerously blinkered. This is how the piece begins:
At long last, the British government is to proscribe the Islamist group Hizb ut Tahrir under anti-terrorism laws. This jihadi group was founded in Jerusalem in 1953 with the aim of replacing Muslim leaders viewed as not Muslim enough and eventually establishing a caliphate with world-wide implementation of Islamic sharia law. —Read full story

I began this post on December 1, but it has taken me until December 3 to nail it down. Before I begin this Pro-Israel, Reject-Antisemitism and Abhor Islamic Supremacism cross post; I need to be clear on some personal views.
As to Antisemitism: It is my belief that there Covenant-Keeping Jews and Covenant-Breaking Jews. And among the Covenant-Breaking Jews there are self-deceived Jews who believe they keep their heritage and trust in Covenant-Breaking Leftist principles (i.e., principles that are against Torah principles). That is self-deception. Then there is another class of Covenant-Breaking Jews who just downright abandon their Judaism altogether by embracing Marxist-atheist values (which is a club NOT exclusive to Jews as there are many former Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, other religions and yes even [former] Muslims in the Marxist-atheist club).
The ONE thing Covenant-Keeping Jews and Covenant Breaking Jews have in common is being the recipients often times of violent Antisemitic hate. A history of Christians persecuting Jews because the wicked twisting of the facts about who killed Jesus and blaming ALL Jews for the actions of a minority of Jewish leaders (Divided Pharisees and pretty all Sadducees in the Jerusalem Sanhedrin in pre-Resurrection days). The idiocy behind the Christ-killer accusation is this:
3. The Apostle Paul (writer of most of the New Testament) clearly brought the Gospel to the Jew First and the Gentile Second followed by the Redeeming Blood of Jesus made the two one (NOT REPLACED) who by faith BELIEVED in the Risen Savior.
Then there are were/are Christians who fall for the idiocy that ALL Jews have an agenda for World Domination. The most cited document behind this idiocy is the forged/fabricated [SEE HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE & HERE]The Protocols of The Elders of Zion. The document has be proven forged and written specifically as a tool to incite Jew-Hatred to offset blame for bad political leadership. The forgery can be traced through the hands of French then German but specifically promoted by Czarist Russia. The obvious idiocy comes from simple Bible reading. The whole concept of a Promised Land is a specific area of land between the Red Sea and Euphrates River – NOT WORLD-WIDE. AND Jerusalem ONLY becomes a WORLD Capital under the reign of the RETURN of King Jesus in which the Chosen People get one more shot at accepting and believing by faith in their Promised Messiah. (I support these perspectives in GotQuestions.org: HERE & HERE. It is my opinion Covenant-Keeping Jews will see Jesus in His RETURN and recognize their Messiah. Sadly after the bodily Resurrection of Jesus many Jews missed their Messiah, it is my guess many will miss their Messiah at the RETURN of Jesus. Here is some Jewish Messianism for Christian Believers that are Intercessors might prayer-tools for Jews to recognize their MessiahHERE, HERE & HERE.)
Islamic Supremacism NOT PEACE
BUT WORSE THAN Christians persecuting Jews based on twisted facts and lies, is MUSLIM persecution of Jews. Unlike Christians who are supposed understand their Scripture, IT IS ENCODED in Islamic revered writings (Quran, Hadith & Sira) to hate and kill Jews. That same hate is extended to all who refuse to submit to Islam, but a special venom is placed on Jews firsts then secondly upon Christians as People of the Book for brutality if they refuse Islamic Submission. References of Islamic directed Jew-Hatred:

One of the most accurate aspects about Israel’s war with Hamas in Gaza is the use of the word Nazi to describe the terrorist enemy. No other label or historical parallel could capture the chilling ferocious madness – but not scope – of Palestinian butchery of Israelis. The Nazi vilification epithet has now become conventional Israeli discourse in public and media circles with the vivid revelation – in words and photos – of Palestinian savagery and barbarism by Hamas on October 7. Hamas terrorists, without an ounce of inhibition or remorse, shot youth in cold blood at the music festival at Re’im, burnt and beheaded Jews, vaunting their sadistic impulses upon children, men, and the elderly – raping women and girls. They decapitated a baby cut from the mother’s womb in front of her eyes. The pyromaniacs set fire to homes, barns and cars.
Nazis and Jews
The murder of approximately 1,200 Israelis in an orgy of bloodshed evoked the sensation that Nazis carried out such a horrific massacre of helpless Jews on that ‘Black Saturday’ on Gaza’s border. Decades of Palestinian terrorism upgraded from stoning and stabbing Jews to the diabolical nightmare of Nazi crematoria – burning Jewish people alive. Later, in a child’s room in Gaza, Israeli soldiers came upon an Arabic translation of Mein Kampf, Hitler’s bible. The kidnapping of 241 Israelis to Gaza became an additional chilling chapter of this unparalleled ordeal.
Are the Palestinians Nazis by ideology?
Berl Katznelson, the foremost leader of Labor Zionism until his death in 1944, was a witness to Arab massacres of Jews in the 1920s and 1930s. He referred to “the Palestinian Nazis who succeeded to unite here in [Eretz] Israel the zoological antisemitism of Europe and the lust for the dagger of the Orient.” The connection between Nazis and Palestinians led the esteemed songwriter Naomi Shemer to offer a remarkable insight:
“Arabs like their murder hot, moist, and steamy, and if they will ever be free to fulfill themselves, we [Jews] will yearn for the good sterile gasses of the Germans.”
In Kfar Aza and Be’eri, Nir Oz and Sderot, there was no Palestinian industrialized war machine in operation; rather just primitive hordes of “Muhammad’s monsters”[1] mangling and mutilating Jews whose innocence, in the double sense of the word, became ready prey for the Gazan rabble run wild. To define those Hamas Palestinian as ‘terrorists’ is a gross understatement, perhaps a euphemism.
In Israel today, after the October 7 pogrom, the liberation of language has allowed the use of ‘Nazi’ to describe the horrendous event. During the entire year prior to the pogrom, the leftist street protests against the judicial reform package of the Netanyahu government introduced the odious word – Nazi – specifically targeting Netanyahu himself. Placards portrayed him in a Nazi uniform, the demonization of the prime minister becoming a central axis of the intense brainwashing campaign. The year 1933 became a symbolic benchmark for Netanyahu’s devious dictatorial designs – said the protest.
Of memorable notoriety was ex-general and member of Knesset Yair Golan’s “processes speech” from 2018 that hinted Israel was already adopting Nazi features in its ideological transformation from a democracy to a dictatorship. The end of liberty in Israel was approaching. The leftist-liberal secular camp, unhinged and full of hatred for Netanyahu during the decades of his premiership, had lost its cultural poise and historical judgment.[2] When the Arab Nazis struck and slaughtered in October, the outrageous accusation that the rightist-nationalist camp is Nazi-like paled and dissolved.
The gruesome real Nazis changed the contours of the domestic Israeli dialogue. Now Netanyahu, the would-be Nazi in the furtive imagination of some bewitched Israelis, labeled Hamas leader, Yahya Sinwar, “a little Hitler hiding in a bunker” on November 5. Here was a candidate worthy of the title.
However, many years earlier, the enemies of Israel from near and far had adopted the Nazi charge against the Jewish state as an ideological staple of de-legitimization. The Russians had initiated this perversion of comparing Zionism to Nazism, and their Syrian proxy followed suit. The loathsome ‘Zionism-is-Nazism’ canard served to vilify Israel and render its existence to be a wicked injustice imposed on the Arabs, Muslims, and the world.[3] This fabricated indictment shaped the victimology of the Palestinians that became a marketable political logo.
Incompatibilities and Conflict: The Primacy of Islam
Islam, the religion of the Muslim faithful, predominates in the political calculus of Hamas (an Arabic acronym for the Islamic Resistance Movement). This turns the Israeli–Palestinian clash into a Muslim–Jewish religious war. In the language of the Hamas covenant from 1988 (Art. 15): “the Palestinian problem is a religious problem” which obligates Muslims to conduct jihad. [Bold Text Blog Editor’s] In Articles 20 and 31 Hamas makes the heinous accusation that Israel uses Nazi methods against the Palestinian people. Where has Israel concealed those death camps and gas ovens? Needless to say that the very victims of Nazism are not the Palestinians but the Jews, then in Europe and now in the Middle East.
It is worth recalling that the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) earlier flung the Nazi charge against Israel in its 1964 Charter (Art. 22). This diatribe against Zionism is an incredulous inversion of truth, no less because of the intimate collaboration in World War II between Hitler and Haj Amin Al-Husseini, the Palestinian leader in British-mandated Palestine. The latter’s ideological and nationalist successor, Yasser Arafat, stated in an interview in 1981 that “the Zionist invasion recalled the Nazi invasion” (of Austria, Poland…).[4] Fatah, the core faction in the PLO, and Hamas are of one Palestinian mind.
The religious engine instructing, validating, inspiring, and mobilizing Hamas is, expectedly, the Koran. The book of Allah revealed to the prophet Muhammad guidance [Bold Text Blog Editor’s] in confirming that the only true faith is Islam (3:18), it is above all religions (48:28), and it will conquer or convert the entire world. To “fight for the cause of Allah” (9:111) against “those who do not embrace the true faith” (9:29) is the greatest deed a Muslim can do. The “believers” (Muslims) must confront the “unbelievers” (Jews) and thereby establish truth and justice on earth. Indeed, “ruthlessness toward unbelievers” (48:29), beheading without mercy, is the mark of Islam as a complete religious-political way of life.[Bold Text Blog Editor’s] For hundreds of years Muslim regimes applied restrictions and humiliations against dhimmi Jews (and Christians) in the lands of Islam[5] – similar to Nazi Germany’s anti-Semitic legislation, turning Jewish citizens into outcasts and dwarfing their public presence. With the spread of armed radical Islam, militant and triumphalist, Muslims seek nothing less than a resounding victory against the Jewish people.
With an ineluctable mandate from Kitab Allah (The Book of God), no moral restrictions stayed the hand of Hamas savages. [Bold Text Blog Editor’s] Like the Nazis in the 1930s, Hamas was always rearming and preparing for the war it would start. Nazis reviled the godless communists, Hamas reviled godless Fatah – and both saw the Jews as the ultimate and diabolical enemy. Hitler aroused frenzy among the Germans, he whipped up passion and hatred, and the mob would follow him; all this featured in the role of Sheikh Ahmed Yassin and his successors – Ismail Haniyeh and Yahya Sinwar. In both cases, Germany and Palestine, exultant mass support for the regime as befits totalitarian movements was more essential than the democratic vote that brought them to power. [Bold Text Blog Editor’s]
Hamas cutthroats and murderers assaulted civilian communities and military posts across the Gaza line and slaughtered the Israelis. The spirit of Itbach el-Yahud – “slaughter the Jews” – filled the air. This sacred mission gave life significance and purpose. Twelve hundred dead Israelis and 241 Israeli hostages were a trophy of victory that, when the news of the operation spread, brought the Gazan Palestinians to the streets, joyous at the Jewish blood spilled, and – as is customary – to distribute sweets and candies in celebration. Fatah followers in the West Bank were no less exuberant. [Bold Text Blog Editor’s]
The Hamas plan for war was sophisticated in its tactical maneuvers and deceptive in implementation. In the months prior, Sinwar had avoided provoking Israel, rather conveying his emphasis on economic development for Gaza and shying away from joining the more active terror campaign by Islamic Jihad in Samaria. Netanyahu apparently may have believed that Israel had successfully deterred Hamas from any concerted military campaign. In the German case, until September 1, 1939 when Germany invaded Poland, Hitler conducted a disinformation campaign aimed at America, England, and Russia, to conceal his intention to go to war.[6] In the end, Hitler fooled Chamberlain and later Stalin; Sinwar arguably fooled Netanyahu – as Arafat fooled Rabin, not with war but with a peace offensive.
War is at the heart of Islam and conquest is the banner of its glory.[Bold Text Blog Editor’s] Ayatollah Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran inspiring, training, arming, and financing Hamas and other Islamic terrorist groups [Blog Editor: It is amazing how Jew-Hatred has brought unity between Sunni-Hamas & Shia-Iran – two Muslim groups who otherwise consider each other Islamic heretics.], declared in a speech in 1942 that Islam is not a religion of peace. Rather, “Kill them [the non-Muslims] put them to the sword…Whatever good there is exists thanks to the sword.”[7] Religious euphoria bonds with the Islamic maxim: Din Muhammad bi’l Saif (the religion of Muhammad by the sword). Khomeini demanded that no one should insult Islam by calling it a religion of peace. His Hamas proxies, bold and ferocious, did not disappoint.
The classic Islamic works – Sirat Rasul Allah and The Sahih Al-Bukhari Anthology – relate the gruesome actions and instructions of Muhammad against enemy forces. They document his war against his own Quraysh tribe, the expulsion of the Bani al-Nadir tribe, and the slaughter of the Bani Qurayza. Mercy, attributed to Allah in the opening Al-Fatiha Koranic verse, was not included in the arsenal of qualities or attributes of Muhammad’s Muslims. A traditional saying commands: “Kill any Jews that fall into your power.” The Hamas Charter (Art. 8) cites the movement’s slogan: “Allah is its target, the prophet is its model, the Koran its constitutions, jihad is its path and death for the sake of Allah is the loftiest of its wishes.”[Bold Text Blog Editor’s] In a street rally in Ramallah weeks into the Gaza War, the chant arose: “Whoever has a rifle, shoot a Jew.”[8]
The goal of the Nazis was to kill all the Jews and cleanse Germany of any Jewish presence. The Palestinians are unarguably their true successors and ideological compatriots in the Middle East, fighting to cleanse Israel of all Jews.
Reflections on Gnostic Heresy
The Hamas-Nazi analogy requires a few final reflections. Four distinctive features define the resemblance:
One: they engaged in the dehumanization of the Jews, as vermin (rats and parasitic insects) by the Nazis, and as apes and pigs by Hamas;
Two: they had the singular and obsessive objective of killing Jews more than even victory in war;
Three: they aspired to achieve global conquest in the name of their ideology – Nazism and Islamism – without compromise.
Four: German Nazism emerged in the 1920s with a fervent hatred of Great Britain and saw her as the major strategic rival, so to the Muslim Brotherhood – Hamas’ parent organization – was born in the same decade and saw Britain, with its mandate over Palestine, its Great Power enemy. The shame of the Versailles Treaty for Germany compared with the humiliation of the Balfour Declaration for the Arabs.
Germans and Palestinians acted under a mysterious spell, they did things out-of-the-ordinary in a conflictual-military context. They burnt Jews alive, and Hamas in earlier years conjured up the holocaust “still to come upon the Jews.”[9] A primordial force operated in such cultures dedicated to domination but also destruction, the perpetrators never blaming themselves. They do not countenance the possibility of error. The Nazi truth and the Hamas truth are unassailable: the faithful ask no questions. Hitler youth in Germany and Islamic youth in Palestine receive an education that prepared them to sacrifice, murder, and die. [Bold Text Blog Editor’s] [10] Anointed to rule with a mission to launch a new era, Nazism and Islamism set forth to build a new world.
Only with such language and interpretation can we begin to grasp the violent nightmares that these diabolical gnostic forces imposed on their Jewish victims, and the world.[11] Hitler’s declaration of the Thousand Year Reich, and Islam’s belief in the Coming of the Mahdi or the Day of Judgment, make possible and permit every conceivable monstrosity.

PMW has been actively involved in Israel’s war efforts from the very start of the Gaza War, both on a global scale and with Israel’s government and security services.
PMW is supplying Israeli security services with vital information on a daily basis. PMW closely monitors hundreds of Palestinian social media sites and shares critical information regarding terror in real-time with Israeli Army Intelligence. When the Army asked PMW to investigate four terrorists, PMW quickly sent them a detailed report. The Army’s response was: “Amazing, amazing, amazing …. The information is excellent.”
Over the past few weeks, I have traveled thousands of miles and spent many hours speaking in parliaments throughout Europe. Last week, I spoke at the European Parliament in Strasbourg and at the Norwegian Parliament. Yesterday I gave a Zoom lecture to members of the Italian senate, and next week I will speak at the European Parliament in Brussels and at the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva. Israeli ambassadors have also called PMW for information to use in their lectures and PR for Israel.
In my presentations, I focus on the PA/Fatah’s support of Hamas’ slaughter on October 7, as well as their calls to Palestinians in the West Bank to join the terror war. I also urge countries to accept Israel’s position that the PA cannot be the replacement to run Gaza once Israel destroys Hamas. It was the PA’s messages that PMW has been warning about for years that generated the support for Hamas that led to the October 7 atrocities.
I am giving between 1 and 4 interviews a day to the Israeli and foreign media. Fox News reported on the financial rewards the PA will give the terrorists and the Wall Street Journal[WSJ subscription may be required] published my op-ed this past Monday.
PMW’s activities with the army, internationally, and with the media have expanded significantly and our critical role in supporting Israel’s war effort has stretched PMW to the max. To continue to fulfill all these and Israel’s expanding needs daily, we must urgently hire additional staff and urgently need additional funding to do so.
Please contribute today to PMW. Your support is needed now more than ever.
Blog Editor: The following embedded links are from the email and are numerous so the email urls will be as is. They may or may not work depending on your browser security. I pray they do function because the info drives Jew-Haters and dedicated Muslims nuts when confronted with facts rather than propaganda.
Upfront – just to provoke all those Jew-Haters out there – here is a stand that will probably enflame many especially in our current Woke-Culture:
I believe Islam is an Antichrist-spirit theopolitical religion.
I am Pro-Israel
I consider myself a Christian Zionist but I separate myself from Covenant-Breaking Leftist Jewish Zionists who appear to me to have more an affinity to Socialist (God-help-them even Marxist) ideology more than the Almighty’s Covenant of Promise to the lineage of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. It’s my opinion: Being a Leftist Jew is an oxymoron. Clinging to a Jewish heritage yet separating from the precepts of Covenant is a sure recipe for a damnation descent rather than a Heavenly ascent. AND I realize the Jewish concept of Heaven and Hell (views HERE, HERE & HERE) is not the same as it is for a Christian. WHICH probably goes a long way to explain the existence of Jews clinging to their Jewishness yet living Leftist lives. And perhaps one reason Religiously Observant Jews who look for a Messiah have not recognized the son of Mary married to Joseph as THE Messiah (other than the historical Christian horrific persecution of Jews – Perspectives: HERE, HERE & HERE) – Jesus the Son of God.
The Arabs who call themselves Palestinians are a made up people who are just as much recent immigrants to the Jewish Homeland as the European Jews who immigrated back to their Homeland (circa pre-WWI through circa post WWII) with the hope of escaping pogroms and persecutions. The irony being Arab immigration was the result of European Jews creating employment situations by making the land usable again for farming. The people living in the Jewish Homeland before Arab and European Jewish immigration were a combination of Sephardic Jews who lived there at least from the Babylonian Captivity Return (and by extension earlier prior to the first Diaspora) and a peasant-class (fellah) tenant farmers who were lived nearly like old feudal serfs to absentee wealthy Arab land owners. Another irony being prior to Arabs seeking employment immigration, the primarily urban Sephardic Jews outnumbered the tenant-farmer rural fellah Muslims.
IT IS the brainwashing aspect of Arab-Pretend-Palestinians that leads me to conclude – certainly to be ridiculed by Leftists, Pro-Palestinians, Unwitting Conservative Condemners of Israel’s reprisals, et al – There are NO INNOCENT PALESTINIAN CIVILIANS. Indeed with a little digging, you’ll discover so-called civilians are willing HUMAN SHIELDS protecting their active Hamas terrorists and Hamas weaponry. AND WORSE, these so-called innocent HUMAN SHIELDS willingly sacrifice their children by making them HUMAN SHIELDS for the glory of Allah.
This where this post becomes lengthy. From here I embark to cross post information the Mockingbird Media and the supporters of Hamas Terrorism would rather say, “Believe our propaganda, not what you see and read.”
AND a bit of caveat that might irritate a few Pro-Israel supporters: Both the U.S. Government and the Israeli Government are inundated with Left-Wing-Globalists who would love to see any pretense for a global war to usher in a New World Order leading up to and including a ONE-World Government. The American Taxpayer can no longer afford foreign interventionism with an Obamanized/Bidenized military complex ran by weenies and military-Patriots purged from service or leadership. THE ONLY THING I’M WILLING TO GIVE ISRAEL IS MILITARY HARDWARE – NOT EVEN MONEY. But I will not condemn Israel for finally moving the terrorist capabilities and abilities of Islamic Terrorist pseudo-Palestinians FAR AWAY from killing their Jewish citizens. Even if idiot HUMAN SHIELDS willingly sacrifice themselves and their very children rather than take actual peace offers of UNDESERVED nationhood from Israel! I am now an Isolationist – NO MORE FOREVER WARS AND NO MORE AMERICAN BLOOD for useless Globalist wars!
In Case YOU Want to KNOW about Actual Islamic Ideology:
PLEASE! I need more Patriots to step up. I need Readers willing to chip in $5 – $10 – $25 – $50 – $100. PLEASE YOUR generosity is NEEDED. PLEASE GIVE to Help me be a voice for Liberty:

Children as Young as 10 Took Part in Hamas’s Oct. 7 Terror Attack, Survivors Say
Gazan children plunder Kibbutz Nir Oz in Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. (Via Eyal Barad) – Washington Free Beacon Photo
EILAT, Israel—Eran Smilansky, a 28-year-old potato farmer, watched Gazan children go from house to house in his kibbutz on Oct. 7. Hamas terrorists followed. The boys laughed as the gunmen shot or dragged away Israeli families.
“They were like young, young kids,” said Smilansky, who defended his home from terrorists for more than six hours that day. “They were going in front of the terrorists, laughing with their friends and looking very calm. I remember thinking, What the fuck?”
Smilansky was one of a dozen survivors of the Nir Oz massacre who told the Washington Free Beacon they witnessed boys or women from the Gaza Strip looting the kibbutz, helping the armed terrorists, and apparently enjoying themselves. The youngest children were around 10 years old, according to several of the survivors, one of whom provided photographs of some of the women and children he saw. The survivors spoke at a hotel in Eilat, Israel’s Red Sea resort town, where most of them have been temporarily relocated.
While the involvement of Gazan children and women in Hamas’s terrorist attack is not widely understood, evidence exists in the public domain. An online video of a 12-year-old Israeli boy’s abduction from Nir Oz, Israel, appears to show a Gazan boy of about the same age accompanying the kidnappers. Boys were among the mob of Gazans recordedcrossingintoIsrael after Hamas terrorists breached the border. And a Hamas-linked Associated Press stringer photographed a Gazan boy entering Kfar Aza, a kibbutz about 15 miles north of Nir Oz.
Hamas has used its nearly two decades of rule over Gaza to weaponize a generation of Palestinians against the Jewish state, according to analysts. In addition to the children, hundreds of ordinary Gazans, including teenagers, joined in Hamas’s bloody rampage across southern Israeli communities, the Free Beacon reported.
“Hamas directed the education system, the media, and the religious institutions to brainwash children, who make up half of Gaza’s 2.2-million-person population,” Michael Milshtein, the head of the Palestinian Studies Forum at the Moshe Dayan Center of Tel Aviv University, told the Free Beacon. “Israelis got their first up-close look at this Palestinian Gen Z on Oct. 7.”
Like most of the Nir Oz survivors, Eyal Barad and his family hid in the safe room of their house from about 6:30 a.m. until the Israeli military evacuated them 12 or so hours later. But Barad, an engineer, had a rare view of the outside world thanks to a speed camera he had recently set up to bust his neighbors for driving on the sidewalk.
On the camera’s livestream, Barad watched three types of Gazans pass by his house: uniformed Hamas commandos carrying automatic weapons, RPGs, and grenades; casually dressed gunmen; and ordinary-looking men, women, and children. Barad said the ordinary Gazans vastly outnumbered the armed terrorists. He estimated that he saw at least a dozen children, who were between the ages of 10 and 15, and 30 women from Gaza.
The armed terrorists were in charge, Barad recalled. They gave orders to the ordinary Gazans, like sending the children to loot specific homes. At one point, Barad saw a woman run up to an armed terrorist and point him toward a house.
“I’m guessing she saw people she wanted him to go kill or kidnap or I don’t know what,” Barad said. “But I can say with 100 percent certainty that [the women and kids] were not just innocent bystanders or looters. They were part of the massacre. They were part of the horrors that we endured that day.”
“How can a parent send a kid to do that?” added Barad, who has three young children. “I want to shelter my kids as much as I can. I want to try to prevent them from seeing and meeting the horrible things that this world can do. And they send their kids into the most horrible situation in the world to go and steal stuff?”
Barad’s neighbor was abducted and the houses next to his were looted and burned. His father-in-law was killed nearby. But for reasons Barad does not understand, no one came into his house.
While Barad’s speed camera lacked the capability to save the livestream footage, it did snap photos 155 of moving objects between about 9:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. Barad shared the images with the Free Beacon. At least five Gazan boys and two Gazan women can be seen riding stolen bicycles.
Amotz Bazer, a 52-year-old farm worker from Nir Oz, was hiding in his safe room with his wife and three daughters when his kitchen window was shot out. He heard the gunmen push two young boys through the window. The boys then opened the front door for the armed terrorists.
“They were not older than 10,” said Bazer, who understands some Arabic after decades of working alongside Arabs in the fields. “I heard their voices, and I have kids, so I know.”
Several waves of looters ransacked the house, but Bazer and his family were not discovered. Bazer had dragged a cabinet in front of the safe room before squeezing through the door that morning.
Natali Yohanan, a 38-year-old English teacher, said she thinks every day about what she would say if she met the young Gazan woman who took over her house. As Yohanan huddled in the safe room with her husband and two young children, the woman sang and danced, heated up leftovers, and watched TV on the couch.
“She turned on Netflix and changed it to Arabic. And she stayed in my house for hours, for hours and hours,” Yohanan said. “It was very, very, very humiliating for us to know that this young woman was in our house, coming and taking whatever she wanted. She wasn’t even afraid. That’s what was very hard for us.”
Yohanan said the woman was accompanied by a group of armed terrorists. She served the men drinks and told them which items she wanted them to loot for her. They took Yohanan’s jewelry, makeup, designer underwear, shoes, sunglasses, and passport, as well as her children’s clothing and toys.
“I think she’s a young mother. I’m a young mother,” said Yohanan, whose father and dog were killed in the kibbutz on Oct. 7. “And it’s very hard for me as a mother to think about a woman who came to my home and saw the pictures of my kids and still came to steal and to terrify my kids.”
As for what she would say to the woman, Yohanan said: “I would tell her that she’s a thief. That’s all she is. I think she believes there’s honor in stealing, being part of the thing they did to us. But there’s no honor in that.”
Raziel Tamil, 26, was hiding in a citrus grove a few miles north of Nir Oz on the morning of Oct. 7. Tamil, a restaurant worker from Kiryat Ono, had fled the Nova music festival in Re’im, Israel, after terrorists showed up and began massacring at least 260 of his fellow partygoers.
When Tamil looked back toward the festival grounds, several hundred feet away, he said he saw Hamas commandos holding a group of Israelis at gunpoint. Several children, ages about 6 to 10, then emerged from a pickup truck wearing Hamas outfits, he said.
“You could see the people on their knees and like begging for their life,” Tamir said. “I heard the screaming.”
According to Tamir, the commandos gave some of the children rifles and directed them to execute hostages, which they did. The terrorists shot more of the hostages and loaded the survivors into the truck, he said.
At that point, Tamil said, he ran further into the citrus grove, where he met up with his friend Alex Kalinin, a 27-year-old sales manager from Yehud, Israel. They eventually located Israeli troops, who evacuated them to safety.
Kalinin said Tamil had told him about witnessing the execution. But Kalinin was already too deep in the citrus grove to have seen it himself, the men agreed. The Free Beacon could not confirm that Gazan children were at the Nova music festival let alone that they killed Israelis on orders from Hamas terrorists.
Milshtein, who before joining Tel Aviv University was the head of the Department for Palestinian Affairs in the Israel Military Intelligence Directorate, said it was plausible that Hamas had used children to execute Israelis on Oct. 7. He noted that Hamas teaches children to celebrate violence against the Jewish state starting in preschool and runs summer camps that provide military training and anti-Israel education to some 100,000 children and teenagers each summer.
“This has always been the Palestinians’ culture,” Milshtein said. “What changes is their capability to act against Israel.”

All of which I do.]
As misinformed and indoctrinated college students continue to fall prey to the poison of Islamic totalitarian propaganda regarding the victim status that has been bestowed on Hamas, it would be prudent to push back against the false narratives flooding out of the mainstream media. As the facts present, Hamas is the aggressor – a totalitarian aggressor – which has more in common with Marxism than those who value individualism and freedom – the true ideology of the Western World.
Islamism and Marxism, at different times and in various regions, have exhibited totalitarian tendencies; and authoritarian appropriation through the use of oppression and violence at times tallying the slaughter of tens of millions in their quest for control, albeit for different reasons.
While their ideological underpinnings may seem fundamentally unique, there are notable and significant similarities in how they have manifested as forms of authoritarian governance. In the end, Islamic, Socialist, and Communist rule is – in every circumstance throughout history – oppressive and antithetical to freedom, choice, self-determination, and liberty.
A Cursory Historical Context
To understand the oppressively totalitarian similarities between Islamism and Marxism, it’s crucial to consider the historical context in which these ideologies emerged and gained power.
Islamism, a relatively contemporary political ideology circa 610 A.D., is based on a strict and fundamentalist interpretation of Islam. Devout Islamists consider the Quran as the literal word of Allah (words not open to interpretation), and the Hadith (mandated Muhammadian traditions for all Muslims). This stands in stark contrast to the Christian Bible and the Hebrew Torah, which are all interpretive records of individuals – Holy and otherwise – and historical accounts sans, the Ten Commandments.
More contemporarily, the 1979 Iranian Revolution, led by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, marked a turning point in the spread of political Islam. It demonstrated the potential for a religious movement to seize control of a state and establish an Islamic theocracy. Since then, various Islamist groups and regimes have emerged across the Muslim world, including the Taliban in Afghanistan, the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Hamas in Gaza, and Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Marxism, on the other hand, originated in the 19th century with the works of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. It evolved into various forms – including socialism, with communism being the most prominent.
The October Revolution in 1917 brought the Bolshevik Party to power in Russia, establishing the first communist regime. The 20th century witnessed the often violent spread of communism across Eastern Europe, Asia, and parts of Africa. It led to oppressive totalitarian regimes in countries like the Soviet Union, China, and North Korea, each of which came at the price of human purges – pogroms – that resulted in the mass slaughter of millions of people.
While the historical contexts of Islamism and Marxism differ in terms of geography, time, and ideological foundations (addressed later), both ideologies emerged in opposition to established political orders based on individualism and liberty and sought to establish new, elitist, authoritarian systems of governance.
The False Promise of Utopian Ideological Foundations
While Islamism and Marxism have distinct ideological foundations, there are noteworthy similarities in how each defines their respective “utopian societies.”
Islamism is rooted in a strict fundamentalist interpretation of Islam, aiming to establish a society governed by Islamic law or Sharia law. Its vision of a utopian society is deeply Muhammadian, emphasizing the “moral” and “ethical” values in their exclusive accordance with the Quran and Hadith, which have been proven to be authoritarian texts. In the Islamist view, a “just” and “virtuous” society can only be achieved through the application of Islamic jurisprudence.
This jurisprudence includes a woman to provide 4 male witnesses to any accusation of rape. If the woman claims rape and doesn’t provide 4 males willing to testify on her behalf, the woman is essentially admitting to having engaged in adultery, a “moral” crime punishable by death by stoning.
Marxism, in contrast, is a secular ideology that focuses on class struggle and the abolition of private property. The utopian vision of Marxism is a classless society based on equity where the means of production are collectively owned. It envisions any government based on the idea of individualism, liberty, and the will of the people eventually withering away, resulting in a society where resources are distributed according to the principle “from each according to their ability, to each according to their needs.”
Of course, even in a Marxian utopia, there would need to be a class (read: privileged and elite) that assures the acquiescence of the people to the “will of the collective” and defined by that elevated class, obliterating the “classless society” immediately in its use of an elite class of overseers.
Despite these foundational differences, both ideologies share a common aspiration to create an “ideal society.” They view the existing order as corrupt, oppressive, and in need of radical transformation. This shared vision of a utopian society is a critical similarity between Islamism and Marxism, as it motivates their followers to pursue authoritarian – and often lawless and violent – means to achieve their goals.
The Consolidation Of Power = Suppressing The Opposition
Totalitarian regimes, whether Islamist or Marxist, employ a range of methods to consolidate power and suppress opposition. These methods demonstrate striking similarities:
Suppression of Dissent: Both Islamism and Marxism rely on the suppression of dissent to maintain control. In Islamic theocracies like Iran, criticism of religious authorities or deviation from religious orthodoxy can lead to severe punishment or even execution. In Marxist states like the former Soviet Union and China, dissent against the ruling party’s ideology often resulted in imprisonment, forced labor, or execution.
Propaganda & Indoctrination: Both dogmas emphasize the importance of ideological purity, the propagation of their worldviews, and their dogma’s eventual global domination. In Islamist regimes, religious indoctrination is a mandatory central aspect of education and media. In Marxist regimes, the state controls information and promotes communist ideology through propaganda, censorship, and state-controlled media.
Cult of Personality: Totalitarian regimes, such as Islamism and Marxism are, often cultivate a cult of personality around their leaders. In Islamism, figures like Ayatollah Khomeini in Iran, Mullah Omar in Afghanistan, and the now-dispatched Osama bin Laden have been elevated to near-mythical status. In Marxism, leaders like Joseph Stalin and Mao Zedong – almost in ignorance of the tens of millions they both killed in their quests for revolutionary power – became iconic symbols of their respective regimes, with their images adorning public spaces and their thoughts enshrined as dogma.
Surveillance & Control: Both Islamism and Marxism have used extensive, pervasive, and limitless surveillance and control mechanisms to monitor and suppress opposition (a critical debate on the use of these actions is currently underway in the Western Culture). This includes the use of secret police and informants to maintain social order. In both cases, citizens may live in fear of being reported for deviating from the official ideology.
Violence & Repression: Violence and repression are common features of totalitarian regimes. Islamist groups have engaged in acts of terrorism and violence to achieve their political goals. In Iran, for example, the LGBTQ community is marked for immediate execution, while “immodest” women are often “disappeared.” Similarly, Marxist regimes have been responsible for mass purges, forced labor camps, and political repression on a massive scale. One need only consider the Soviet Gulags or the Uygher “re-education” camps in communist China.
The Threat To Global Stability By These Dogmas
The totalitarian similarities – the oppression, manipulation, coercion, and violence – between Islamism and Marxism have significant implications for political, social, and global stability:
Human Rights Violations: Both ideologies, when implemented in a totalitarian fashion (as they most often are), have a track record of severe human rights violations. The suppression of individual freedoms, freedom of speech, and religious liberties is widespread in Islamist and Marxist regimes. Citizens may face persecution and violence for expressing dissenting views or practicing their religion. Nowhere is this more evident than in communist China where Yughars [Blog Editor: Wikipedia alternate spellings: Uyghurs, Uighurs, Uygurs & Uigurs] and Tibetans are indentured, or historically in the Soviet Union where Jews were subject to pogroms and detention in the gulags.
Destabilization: Totalitarian regimes based on Islamism or Marxism often contribute to regional and global instability. Today’s spread of radical Islamist groups like ISIS, al Qaeda, Hezbollah, and Hamas – as well as the expansionist ambitions of Marxist regimes both today and during the Cold War, have disrupted international relations and contributed by way of aggressive destabilization as the catalyst in several global and large regional conflicts, including World War I, World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and today’s War in Israel where the Israelis are being forced to defend themselves against Islamofascist aggression emanating from Hamas, al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, and Hezbollah, the former and the latter controlled by the Islamist mullahs of Iran.
Resistance & Opposition: Totalitarian regimes also face resistance and opposition, whether from domestic dissidents, external actors, or regional alliances. Opposition to these regimes can take various forms, including armed conflict, civil disobedience, and diplomatic pressure. Two very good examples of this come in the current Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the free world’s opposition and push back against the Marxist-based “woke” movement.
Ideological Appeal Via Indoctrination: Despite their grotesque flaws, authoritarian tendencies, and quests for world domination, Islamism and Marxism continue to appeal to weaker, less educated, and intellectually stunted segments of the population. Today, the purveyors of the totalitarian dogmas disingenuously position themselves as champions of justice, equality, and sometimes religious righteousness. They attempt to achieve transitional chaos through the Balkanization of populations using the strategy of divide et impera – divide and conquer, commonly attributed to Niccolò Machiavelli but first conceptualized by Philip II of Macedon, the father of Alexander the Great.
In The End…
While Islamism and Marxism have unique and separate ideological foundations and historical contexts, they share significant and dangerous totalitarian similarities in their methods of control and the consequences of their governance. Both ideologies claim to want to establish utopian societies but in reality want to assume the position of elite and privileged overseers to the whole of those utopian societies, thus proving the lie of the utopian concept.
In the end, both Islamists and Marxists are willing to employ deceptive, manipulative, oppressive, and deadly authoritarian means to achieve their goals. The implications of these similarities and these chosen tactics are profound, as they manifest in unspeakable human rights violations, contributing to regional and global instability.
Understanding these factual parallels is essential for elected officials and their subordinate policymakers – as well as those in academia, advocacy, and individuals seeking to address the dangers posed by authoritarian ideologies, not only in their impact on societies and global affairs but to the very existence of individualism and freedom in the world.
Sadly, today the Marxist ideology holds significant sway through a corrupted media and through a network of fascist elites who give short shrift to the sanctity of individual freedom in their quest for privilege and control.
So, the next time you see the ignorant masses of the Western university undergraduate community chanting catchphrases and screeching hate towards Israel at pro-Hamas protests; the next time you see demonstrations hawking social justice or diversity, equity, and inclusion; the next time you see con-artists like Ibrahim X. Kendi, Klaus Schwab, Robin DeAngelo, George Soros, Nicole Hanah-Jones, Hillary Clinton, or Barack Obama pontificating about the need for “change,” please identify what their core belief systems are and realize that they are not liberators or even supporting the continued existence of freedom. They are the power-greedy elites who seek to rule over their fake utopias; utopias that in and of themselves are lies.
[Blog Editor: Whew, a lot of reading. YET, if you are awakening to the emerging tyranny much of which is associated with Islam, Marxism and the odd combinations of Globalist Totalitarian ideologies; READING is a good KNOW YOUR ENEMY moment.
SO, I got one more. If you made it this far, I share this post about and written by Ayaan Hirsi Ali because she was an important source and inspiration to me in my early Counterjihad education days. This gal left Islam and the land of her birth and moved to the Netherlands and actually became an elected politician there while criticizing Islam and embracing atheism. ALL dangerous to life & limb under threat from Muslims believing such actions are worthy of death. According to Britannica.com she became U.S. citizen in 2013, but I know she is under constant threat from Muslims since she dares to criticize Islam. Frankly, for her safety I have know idea where she currently resides. AND NOW Ayaan Hirsi Ali has abandoned atheism and has embraced Christianity. I am guessing now she has completed the cycle of reasons to watch her back from threats from WOKE-Lefties and demon-influenced Muslims. For those who don’t about A.H. Ali, here is a brief excerpt from her website ABOUT PAGE:
“Ayaan is a Somali-born classical liberal. A free speech advocate. An activist for the rights of women and girls. A public intellectual with a powerful voice. A woman that does not back down when she sees a problem.
Previously a Member of the Dutch Parliament (2003-2006), she regularly called for furthering the integration of non-Western immigrants into Dutch society, and defending the rights of Muslim women.
Now, a Research Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University and Founder of the AHA Foundation, she regularly comments on today’s issues and offers a platform to exchange perspectives that lead to real solutions.
AND NOW, to add to your potential lengthy reading, BELOW is the post Ayaan Hirsi Ali claims she is a Christian – well my impression is she learning to be a Christian. May the Almighty send her a modern Priscilla and Aquila to explain the Gospel more accurately.]

Why I am now a Christian
Atheism can’t equip us for civilisational war
Ayaan Hirsi Ali Webcapture of Photo attributed to Christian Marquardt/Getty Images
In 2002, I discovered a 1927 lecture by Bertrand Russell entitled “Why I am Not a Christian”. It did not cross my mind, as I read it, that one day, nearly a century after he delivered it to the South London branch of the National Secular Society, I would be compelled to write an essay with precisely the opposite title.
The year before, I had publicly condemned the terrorist attacks of the 19 men who had hijacked passenger jets and crashed them into the twin towers in New York. They had done it in the name of my religion, Islam. I was a Muslim then, although not a practising one. If I truly condemned their actions, then where did that leave me? The underlying principle that justified the attacks was religious, after all: the idea of Jihad or Holy War against the infidels. Was it possible for me, as for many members of the Muslim community, simply to distance myself from the action and its horrific results?
At the time, there were many eminent leaders in the West — politicians, scholars, journalists, and other experts — who insisted that the terrorists were motivated by reasons other than the ones they and their leader Osama Bin Laden had articulated so clearly. So Islam had an alibi.
This excuse-making was not only condescending towards Muslims. It also gave many Westerners a chance to retreat into denial. Blaming the errors of US foreign policy was easier than contemplating the possibility that we were confronted with a religious war. We have seen a similar tendency in the past five weeks, as millions of people sympathetic to the plight of Gazans seek to rationalise the October 7 terrorist attacks as a justified response to the policies of the Israeli government.
When I read Russell’s lecture, I found my cognitive dissonance easing. It was a relief to adopt an attitude of scepticism towards religious doctrine, discard my faith in God and declare that no such entity existed. Best of all, I could reject the existence of hell and the danger of everlasting punishment.
Russell’s assertion that religion is based primarily on fear resonated with me. I had lived for too long in terror of all the gruesome punishments that awaited me. While I had abandoned all the rational reasons for believing in God, that irrational fear of hellfire still lingered. Russell’s conclusion thus came as something of a relief: “When I die, I shall rot.”
To understand why I became an atheist 20 years ago, you first need to understand the kind of Muslim I had been. I was a teenager when the Muslim Brotherhood penetrated my community in Nairobi, Kenya, in 1985. I don’t think I had even understood religious practice before the coming of the Brotherhood. I had endured the rituals of ablutions, prayers and fasting as tedious and pointless.
The preachers of the Muslim Brotherhood changed this. They articulated a direction: the straight path. A purpose: to work towards admission into Allah’s paradise after death. A method: the Prophet’s instruction manual of do’s and don’ts — the halal and the haram. As a detailed supplement to the Qur’an, the hadeeth spelled out how to put into practice the difference between right and wrong, good and evil, God and the devil.
The Brotherhood preachers left nothing to the imagination. They gave us a choice. Strive to live by the Prophet’s manual and reap the glorious rewards in the hereafter. On this earth, meanwhile, the greatest achievement possible was to die as a martyr for the sake of Allah.
The alternative, indulging in the pleasures of the world, was to earn Allah’s wrath and be condemned to an eternal life in hellfire. Some of the “worldly pleasures” they were decrying included reading novels, listening to music, dancing, and going to the cinema — all of which I was ashamed to admit that I adored.
The most striking quality of the Muslim Brotherhood was their ability to transform me and my fellow teenagers from passive believers into activists, almost overnight. We didn’t just say things or pray for things: we did things. As girls we donned the burka and swore off Western fashion and make-up. The boys cultivated their facial hair to the greatest extent possible. They wore the white dress-like tawb worn in Arab countries or had their trousers shortened above their ankle bones. We operated in groups and volunteered our services in charity to the poor, the old, the disabled and the weak. We urged fellow Muslims to pray and demanded that non-Muslims convert to Islam.
During Islamic study sessions, we shared with the preacher in charge of the session our worries. For instance, what should we do about the friends we loved and felt loyal to but who refused to accept our dawa (invitation to the faith)? In response, we were reminded repeatedly about the clarity of the Prophet’s instructions. We were told in no uncertain terms that we could not be loyal to Allah and Muhammad while also maintaining friendships and loyalty towards the unbelievers. If they explicitly rejected our summons to Islam, we were to hate and curse them.
Here, a special hatred was reserved for one subset of unbeliever: the Jew. We cursed the Jews multiple times a day and expressed horror, disgust and anger at the litany of offences he had allegedly committed. The Jew had betrayed our Prophet. He had occupied the Holy Mosque in Jerusalem. He continued to spread corruption of the heart, mind and soul.
You can see why, to someone who had been through such a religious schooling, atheism seemed so appealing. Bertrand Russell offered a simple, zero-cost escape from an unbearable life of self-denial and harassment of other people. For him, there was no credible case for the existence of God. Religion, Russell argued, was rooted in fear: “Fear is the basis of the whole thing — fear of the mysterious, fear of defeat, fear of death.”
As an atheist, I thought I would lose that fear. I also found an entirely new circle of friends, as different from the preachers of the Muslim Brotherhood as one could imagine. The more time I spent with them — people such as Christopher Hitchens and Richard Dawkins — the more confident I felt that I had made the right choice. For the atheists were clever. They were also a great deal of fun.
So, what changed? Why do I call myself a Christian now?
Part of the answer is global. Western civilisation is under threat from three different but related forces: the resurgence of great-power authoritarianism and expansionism in the forms of the Chinese Communist Party and Vladimir Putin’s Russia; the rise of global Islamism, which threatens to mobilise a vast population against the West; and the viral spread of woke ideology, which is eating into the moral fibre of the next generation. [Blog Editor Bold Text Emphasis]
We endeavour to fend off these threats with modern, secular tools: military, economic, diplomatic and technological efforts to defeat, bribe, persuade, appease or surveil. And yet, with every round of conflict, we find ourselves losing ground. We are either running out of money, with our national debt in the tens of trillions of dollars, or we are losing our lead in the technological race with China.
But we can’t fight off these formidable forces unless we can answer the question: what is it that unites us? The response that “God is dead!” seems insufficient. So, too, does the attempt to find solace in “the rules-based liberal international order”. The only credible answer, I believe, lies in our desire to uphold the legacy of the Judeo-Christian tradition.
That legacy consists of an elaborate set of ideas and institutions designed to safeguard human life, freedom and dignity — from the nation state and the rule of law to the institutions of science, health and learning. As Tom Holland has shown in his marvellous book Dominion, all sorts of apparently secular freedoms — of the market, of conscience and of the press — find their roots in Christianity.
And so I have come to realise that Russell and my atheist friends failed to see the wood for the trees. The wood is the civilisation built on the Judeo-Christian tradition; it is the story of the West, warts and all. Russell’s critique of those contradictions in Christian doctrine is serious, but it is also too narrow in scope.
For instance, he gave his lecture in a room full of (former or at least doubting) Christians in a Christian country. Think about how unique that was nearly a century ago, and how rare it still is in non-Western civilisations. Could a Muslim philosopher stand before any audience in a Muslim country — then or now — and deliver a lecture with the title “Why I am not a Muslim”? In fact, a book with that title exists, written by an ex-Muslim. But the author published it in America under the pseudonym Ibn Warraq. It would have been too dangerous to do otherwise.
To me, this freedom of conscience and speech is perhaps the greatest benefit of Western civilisation. It does not come naturally to man. It is the product of centuries of debate within Jewish and Christian communities. It was these debates that advanced science and reason, diminished cruelty, suppressed superstitions, and built institutions to order and protect life, while guaranteeing freedom to as many people as possible. Unlike Islam, Christianity outgrew its dogmatic stage. It became increasingly clear that Christ’s teaching implied not only a circumscribed role for religion as something separate from politics. It also implied compassion for the sinner and humility for the believer.
Yet I would not be truthful if I attributed my embrace of Christianity solely to the realisation that atheism is too weak and divisive a doctrine to fortify us against our menacing foes. I have also turned to Christianity because I ultimately found life without any spiritual solace unendurable — indeed very nearly self-destructive. Atheism failed to answer a simple question: what is the meaning and purpose of life?
Russell and other activist atheists believed that with the rejection of God we would enter an age of reason and intelligent humanism. But the “God hole” — the void left by the retreat of the church — has merely been filled by a jumble of irrational quasi-religious dogma. The result is a world where modern cults prey on the dislocated masses, offering them spurious reasons for being and action — mostly by engaging in virtue-signalling theatre on behalf of a victimised minority or our supposedly doomed planet. The line often attributed to G.K. Chesterton has turned into a prophecy: “When men choose not to believe in God, they do not thereafter believe in nothing, they then become capable of believing in anything.” [Blog Editor Bold Text Emphasis]
In this nihilistic vacuum, the challenge before us becomes civilisational. We can’t withstand China, Russia and Iran if we can’t explain to our populations why it matters that we do. We can’t fight woke ideology if we can’t defend the civilisation that it is determined to destroy. And we can’t counter Islamism with purely secular tools. To win the hearts and minds of Muslims here in the West, we have to offer them something more than videos on TikTok.
The lesson I learned from my years with the Muslim Brotherhood was the power of a unifying story, embedded in the foundational texts of Islam, to attract, engage and mobilise the Muslim masses. Unless we offer something as meaningful, I fear the erosion of our civilisation will continue. And fortunately, there is no need to look for some new-age concoction of medication and mindfulness. Christianity has it all.
That is why I no longer consider myself a Muslim apostate, but a lapsed atheist. Of course, I still have a great deal to learn about Christianity. I discover a little more at church each Sunday. But I have recognised, in my own long journey through a wilderness of fear and self-doubt, that there is a better way to manage the challenges of existence than either Islam or unbelief had to offer.
Hamas attacks Israel, and then I begin to read the amazing typically anti-Globalist sources infiltrated by Jew-Haters, come out and blame Israel and support the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians.
This is what I know from extensive study of modern Jewish and Arab history merely from the top of my memory. Jews began to immigrate to the area now known as modern Israel that was under management of the then Muslim Ottoman Empire (modern Turkey today is remnant of that old empire).
Why did European Jews begin to immigrate to the area controlled by Ottoman-Turkey? A combination of circumstances created by an emerging Zionist Movement to return to the Promised Land given by God AND rabid European Antisemitism that brutalized Jews of lesser financial means.
To be upfront, early Zionist leaders were more Left-Wing than Biblical in their mindset. Many of the European Zionist-supporting Jews desired to keep their Jewish identity while also adapting Western Cultural benefits. The movement gained a large impetus from the French Dreyfus Affair. Here’s a paragraph summary (you should read the whole page) from Holocaust Encyclopedia:
‘Alfred Dreyfus (1859-1935) was a French Jewish military officer who was wrongfully tried and convicted of treason against France in 1894. The trial and ensuing events are referred to as the “Dreyfus Affair.”’
As I wrote, you should read the entire post for detail of conviction for treason more for being Jewish than any actual proof of treason. Her’s a summary of Dreyfus’ final exoneration which took quite some time and the experience of jail time on Devil’s Island:
“Dreyfus was not officially exonerated until July 12, 1906, by a military commission. He was readmitted into the army with a promotion to the rank of Major. A week later, he was made a knight of the Legion of Honour. Despite the toll which the years of imprisonment on Devil’s Island had taken on his health, he returned to serve in the French army in World War I and was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel at the end of the war.
Dreyfus died in Paris on July 12, 1935, at the age of 75.”
Enter prime-mover of Zionism Theodore Herzl. History appears to be in current dispute on how much the Dreyfus Affair affected Herzl. I found what I believe to be a great synopsis from the website my Jewish Learning:
“As a young man, Herzl believed Jews should seek to assimilate into European culture. According to several of his biographers, Herzl had an ambivalent relationship to his Jewish identity, both proud and ashamed, and sought to shed his distinctly Jewish traits and meld into the wider culture. But over time he came to lose faith in that approach. The conventional view has it that Herzl was deeply influenced by the trial of Alfred Dreyfus, a French-Jewish army captain falsely accused of treason in 1894. The case, which has come to be seen as a textbook example of enduring European hostility toward Jews, unfolded when Herzl was the Paris correspondent for the Viennese Neue Freie Presse. However, later scholars have suggestedthat Herzl’s transformation occurred earlier and that he played up the impact of the Dreyfus affair on his thinking only to win support for his political goals.
Either way, Herzl eventually came to believe in the futility of Jewish assimilation and efforts to combat anti-Semitism, promoting instead the idea that Jews should remove themselves from Europe and establish their own independent polity so as to secure their national rights. In Der Judenstaat, he proposed an independent state as the solution to the so-called “Jewish question” and laid out a detailed plan for its establishment. …” READ IT ALL
Herzl lived from 1860 to 1904. He never witnessed the complete exoneration of Dreyfus and neither did live long enough to see the restoration of the Jewish Homeland. Keep in mind Herzl became the typical of the Left-oriented European Jew weary of experiencing Antisemitism who did immigrate to a Palestine-area (part of a Syrian province-like administration) administered by Ottoman-Turkey. Contrary to claims of historical revisionists, Ottoman land mismanagement led to a relatively empty rural Palestine area with cities such as Jerusalem actually having more Jews than Muslims. European Jewish immigration brought Western innovation and the need for more employment. That is when Arabs began to immigrate to the area to work. The descendants of today’s so-called Palestinians were these Arab immigrants. It is a LIE of a long-time Palestinian existence in the Jewish Homeland.
Actual look of Ottoman-ruled Palestine area that included long-term Jews and European Jewish immigrants:
AND NOW the reason I’m a Christian Zionist – that term Antisemites, a good number of Jews (BOTH Covenant-keeping and Covenant-breaking Jews) and probably an unfortunate amount of Christians:
Genesis 28: 10-15; Numbers 34: 1-12 NKJV [just a small of God’s Word of His Promise to the descendants of Abraham through line proceeding through Isaac and Jacob (renamed Israel by the ALMIGHTY]:
Genesis 28:10-15
28 10 Now Jacob went out from Beersheba and went toward Haran. 11 So he came to a certain place and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. And he took one of the stones of that place and put it at his head, and he lay down in that place to sleep. 12 Then he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven; and there the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
13 And behold, the Lord stood above it and said: “I am the Lord God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give to you and your descendants. 14 Also your descendants shall be as the dust of the earth; you shall spread abroad to the west and the east, to the north and the south; and in you and in your seed all the families of the earth shall be blessed. 15 Behold, I am with you and will keep[a] you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you.” — Read full chapter
34 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Command the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When you come into the land of Canaan, this is the land that shall fall to you as an inheritance—the land of Canaan to its boundaries. 3 Your southern border shall be from the Wilderness of Zin along the border of Edom; then your southern border shall extend eastward to the end of the Salt Sea; 4 your border shall turn from the southern side of the Ascent of Akrabbim, continue to Zin, and be on the south of Kadesh Barnea; then it shall go on to Hazar Addar, and continue to Azmon; 5 the border shall turn from Azmon to the Brook of Egypt, and it shall end at the Sea.
6 ‘As for the western border, you shall have the Great Sea for a border; this shall be your western border.
7 ‘And this shall be your northern border: From the Great Sea you shall mark out your border line to Mount Hor; 8 from Mount Hor you shall mark out your border to the entrance of Hamath; then the direction of the border shall be toward Zedad; 9 the border shall proceed to Ziphron, and it shall end at Hazar Enan. This shall be your northern border.
10 ‘You shall mark out your eastern border from Hazar Enan to Shepham; 11 the border shall go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain; the border shall go down and reach to the eastern [a]side of the Sea of Chinnereth; 12 the border shall go down along the Jordan, and it shall end at the Salt Sea. This shall be your land with its surrounding boundaries.’ ” —Read full chapter
YUP, those Arabs that call themselves Palestinians (from a Latinized version of Philistine – enemies of Jews until King David vanquished them – so-called by Romans trying to villainize rebellious Jews) are mere Jew-hating squatters unworthy of the Land Promised to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
For me giving excuses to these vile human beings calling themselves Palestinians is REPRENSIBLE! I’ve read the – boohoo – how innocent Palestinian civilians should not pay the price for their leaders killing, maiming, raping and kidnapping Jewish civilians.
The Palestinians that are Muslim are not only brainwashed by their revered writings (Quran, Hadith & Sira) to hate Jews; Palestinian children from the cradle to the grave are taught to give their lives in the name of the demon-god Allah to kill Jews.
So here’s the thing. Left-Wing Jews – as Covenant-breakers – have given Antisemites plenty of fuel to be jew-haters. Realize that many Left-Wing Jews are very supportive of Globalist and Dem-Marxist ideologies and agendas yet cling to their Jewish heritage even though Leftist designs are diametrically contradictory to God’s Covenant with Abraham (Genesis 12: 1-3; 13: 14-17; 15: 1-21; 17: 1-15, 19-22 NKJV) and the Blessings and Curses Covenant delivered by God Almighty to the Law-Giver Moses (Deuteronomy Chapter 28 – NKJV).
Yet the Apostle Paul inspired by the Holy Spirit (Hence God’s Word) tells Believers in the Risen Savior to NOT disdain Jews because they are the people of Promise from whom Jesus the Messiah came and will Return to Restore the Kingdom of God on Earth. (Take a Look at Romans 1: 16; 2: 1-11; Galatians 3: 10-29; Ephesians 2: 11-22 NKJV) A careful-thoughtful reading Paul’s inspired Word of God should be noted the Gentile Believers DO NOT replace the Chosen People of the First Covenant but rather are engrafted to JOIN as fellow heirs in Christ Jesus.
Sadly, the People of the Covenant may not figure out that Christ the Redeemer is their Messiah until His Second Coming when many Jews will believe under a kind of weak Thomas Faith of seeing is believing. NONETHELESS, the Muslim world who revere Jesus as a prophet (their revered writings call Jesus by the name “Isa”, BUT REFUSE to believe Jesus is the Son of God and REFUSE Jesus died on the Cross and was Resurrected three days later) will have an even more difficult realization of Redemption because of their brainwashing revered writings. Hatred of all things non-Islamic are actually encoded in their revered writings – BUT that’s another subject.
I’m going to show you how vile these people beginning with short video of a Jewish father’s anguish over his kidnapped daughter because HE KNOWS her outcome will not be sugar and spice and everything nice THEN cross post from there.

There have been plenty of terrorist attacks on Israel. A dozen or so conventional wars of various magnitude have been waged against the Jewish state. And more often there have been mixtures of both.
Yet never have hundreds of gangs of black-clad murderers carefully planned to swarm Israel, with an agenda to pull random Jews out of their homes and off the street, murder them, and toss their bodies in the street.
In fact, the closest parallel to the sort of methods Hamas is now embracing is something close to the Rwanda 1994 mass killing, when swarms of Hutu militia killers launched a preplanned murder spree against thousands of Tutsi civilians.
Note one common theme of these horrific videos of the murdering of young women: the bloodthirst of the Gaza crowd. There appears a natural desire of everyday Gazans to video the mutilations, an embrace of the spitting on the doomed, a frenzied effort to mutilate the dead—and the absence of a single Gazan objecting to the group murder of a civilian.
Hamas did not act out of the ordinary, but in sync with its people. In truth, there is something so terribly wrong in Gaza that the United States should keep as far away as it can from such barbarity—and hope that it too feels the same about America and keeps to itself.
So again why did Hamas mount such a long-planned and multifaceted assault on Israeli towns, public buildings, soldiers, and civilians?
The invasion was not so much a surprise attack, in the conventional Pearl Harbor sense, as a carefully calibrated land, sea, and ground effort at mass killing and hostage taking. It was designed to execute noncombatants, grab Jews for bargaining leverage, and to shock Israelis through their pre-civilizational desecration of the bodies of the dead.
It targeted first a youth concert near the border, on the theory the cowardly killers could gain maximum media traction and Arab solidarity by sensationally butchering and kidnapping helpless adolescents. Will the murderers in the weeks ahead transfer their killing zeal to attacks on the IDF? They will soon have their long desired and ample opportunity to showcase to the world their bravado as they face real soldiers and not unarmed elderly and youth.
Apparently, the Palestinians in their now ISIS role also thought their descent into even greater barbarity, rarely witnessed in even the most savage parts of the world, would shock Israelis into assuming some sort of collective fetal position, with hands over their ears screaming, “make all these demons just go away.”
If so, Hamas sorely miscalculated.
The sheer horror of their methods, and the cowardice shown by focusing on teen-aged girls and children rather than the IDF, will have the exact opposite effect, both in Israel and worldwide.
Israel now knows there is no living with a precivilizational Hamas. It must destroy it, permanently block off Gaza from itself, and adopt a strategy of chronic disproportionate response from now on out.
In such a change of strategy, Israel will have the backing of most of the civilized world and its own people, since there is no other choice once Hamas has adopted its campaign of death. We will likely see things in the next month that no one has anticipated, and yet the Israeli response will be in the eyes of most of the world long overdue.
In other words, few will pay any more attention to the Squads of the world, or the radical Jew-haters of the Western Left, or the Democratic-Socialists of America who cheered on the killing. They are now revealed on the side of death for death’s sake and cannot be reasoned with.
We are not yet 80 years out from the Holocaust. Yet here again we witness black-clad cadres of special killer units trying to round up Jews and execute them on the spot. There is one strange difference though between the current Hamas SS cadres and their spiritual forefathers in Nazi Germany.
Between 1941-45 America fought to destroy the SS and its hired local death squads. But in 2023, the Biden administration has restored hundreds of millions of dollars in aid to the Palestinian Authority and to Gaza under Hamas, despite the commitments of both to the destruction of Israel and the mass killing of Jews—and regardless of the warnings of its own State Department.
That too will change, as there will soon be zero American support for giving one more cent to any Palestinian “organization.”
Why the attacks now? Other than the usual reasons the Palestinians slaughter Jews—envy, the easy preference to destroy others than to create a successful modern state of their own, ethnic and religious hatred—the timing and methods of this particular killing spread were predicated on some particular catalysts.
Palestinians wanted to stop any rumored rapprochement between the Gulf monarchies—their traditional purse strings—and Israel, by forcing the issue of Arab solidarity in times of “war,” especially through waging a gruesome attack aimed at civilians and encompassing executions and hostage taking. They wished to force, for example, the Saudis to endorse their mutilation of corpses or else be to seen as sell-outs to the “Jews.”
Iran is the likely driving force in prompting the war. Its greatest fear is a Sunni Arab-Israel deal that would finally transcend the anti-Semitic and ethnic hatred that now resides most prominently in Palestine and Iran.
In addition, Arab forces only achieve success against Israel in surprise assaults during an Israel holiday. So the current attack was timed 50-years after the October 6, 1973 beginning of the Yom Kippur War. They struck during Simchat Torah, coming at the end of a weeklong Jewish celebration of Sukkot. And yet despite the iconic date, Hamas caught both the sophisticated intelligence networks of Israel, the United States, and the West in general completely unaware.
Did Hamas think Hezbollah and Iran would join in? Will they? If one believes their rhetoric they will; if one believes that they do not wish to experience what will likely follow in Gaza, they will not.
For the time being, after all, there are now zero restraints on Israel for the first occasion perhaps in its history. Few other than the international relations major AOC or a bigot in the American State Department will call for proportionality, an immediate ceasefire, or an Israeli stand down.
Hamas may also have reckoned that recent Israeli turmoil and mass street protests over proposed reforms of the Israeli Supreme Court had led to permanent internal divisions and thus a climate of domestic distraction if not an erosion of deterrence.
True, there was something eerie about the Israeli left’s opposition that extended to the politicization of IDF recruits. This propensity to commit collective civilizational suicide is now toxic in Western society, from Sweden to America. But in a frontline state like Israel it could prove fatal–as Hamas apparently also reasoned.
Let us also be candid, the Biden administration has contributed to the notion that Hamas was a legitimate Middle-East player. It fueled the perception that the U.S. was backing away from its traditional support for Israel—to the delight of Hamas—based on inexplicable policies.
Remember there is an iron law in the Middle East: anytime the U.S. distances itself from Israel, and gravitates to Iran, its violent enemies see that as a de facto greenlight to ratchet up their aggression. It is now a tenet of the base of the new woke Democratic Party, whether on campuses, among its Squad, in the media, or as championed by its identify politics caucuses, that Israel is an illegitimate state, while radical Palestinians are freedom fighters.
Do we remember that in February the ridiculous Secretary of State Blinken bragged that not only had the Biden administration resumed massive aid to the corrupt PLA, canceled by Trump, but also cumulatively had transferred $1 billion—even as Palestinian authorities and Abbas bragged that they would continue to pay bounties to the families of “martyrs” (i.e., those killed while conducting terrorists attacks against Israel)?
All such funds are fungible. So the more Biden’s people brag that the money goes to humanitarian purposes or has not yet arrived in Iranian accounts, the more these terrorist entities preemptively free up cash to mobilize for war.
So millions of American dollars went into Gaza, run by Hamas—despite the Biden administration’s efforts to keep mostly quiet the resumption of such inexplicable support.
In this regard, note the shameful State-Department (“U.S. Office of Palestinian Affairs”) website news release that was posted instantly after attack (since mysteriously taken down). It had ended with this quite embarrassing, morally equivalent admonition:
“We urged all sides to refrain from violence and retaliatory attacks. Terror and violence solve nothing.” “All sides?” “Refrain from retaliatory attacks?”
So Israel is to be the moral equivalent of terrorists executing civilians and brutalizing their corpses? And all this from the U.S. government? And what exactly is the “U.S. Office of Palestinian Affairs,” a megaphone for “normalizing” Hamas?
The IDF then is not to retaliate against these killers?
Does the Biden administration now also call upon Ukraine, “to refrain from violence and retaliatory attacks?” Does it believe that Ukraine’s “violence” in response to Putin’s “terror” will “solve nothing?”
Remember also the Biden administration had recently released some $6 billion to Iran through a prison swap deal that saw South Korea had over embargoed Iranian money to Qatar—despite Tehran’s increased anti-Israeli rhetoric and its loud brag about the escalation.
In fungible fashion and in anticipation of the arrival of this cash windfall, Iran no doubt accelerated its shipments of arms to Gaza. We should assume Iranian money for rockets (Hamas claims they have launched 5,000, and have received 100,000 of them via the Damascus airport) and weapons in general for Hamas were supplied by Iran, a terrorist state that the Biden administration apparently sees as a strategic partner.
Almost immediately, after his inauguration an eager Biden mobilized to resume the bankrupt Iran deal. In unhinged fashion, he appointed the anti-Israeli bigot, pro-Iranian zealot journalist Robert Malley as America’s chief Iranian negotiator. Remember, Malley was the special ISIS advisor of Barack Obama (who kept mum during the 2009 mass uprising against the Iranian theocracy), when ISIS overran Iraq.
Our envoy Malley apparently advertises himself, to quote his Wikipedia bio, as “an expert on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and has written extensively on this subject advocating rapprochement with Hamas and Muslim Brotherhood.”
We are now witnessing the reification of our Iranian envoy’s idea of “rapprochement” in the streets of Israel.
Note that Malley is now under FBI investigation for security breaches, involving disclosing classified U.S. documents. He also is under further scrutiny for allegedly helping pro-Iranian activists and propagandists land influential billets inside the U.S. government.
Imagine that: Iran now cheers on mass death in Israel while its agents and provocateurs burrow into the U.S. government (which might explain the Biden State Department’s immediate call to cease Israeli retaliation).
The result of this madness is that there was a general Hamas and Iranian perception that the Biden administration had resumed the discredited Obama insanity of empowering Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas. This discredited agenda aimed to “balance” the power of Israel and the moderate Arab Gulf governments to achieve “creative tension,” and was certainly exacerbated by Biden’s loathing of the government of Benjamín Netanyahu.
Note as well that the Biden administration has insidiously siphoned off key weapons and munitions from emergency stockpiles inside Israel apparently to transfer them to Ukraine. The so-called “War Reserve Ammunition—Israel” is reportedly all but depleted of just the sorts of weapons and shells that will be likely needed in the present crisis.
Who knows, we should soon expect that some of the multibillion-dollar arsenal abandoned to the Taliban—who have now voiced a willingness to help Gaza in the killing of Jews—will end up with Hamas. So we deplete strategic arsenals in Israel, but leave them to the Taliban.
In this regard is there a Carteresque pattern here?
Upon the ascension of Biden and his woke strategic agendas, we witnessed the following chain of events: 1) the 2021 complete humiliation of the U.S. miliary in Kabul in its greatest defeat in 50 years; 2) followed by Vladimir Putin’s 2022 opportunistic invasion of Ukraine; 3) followed by China’s new belligerence and escalating threats to Taiwan; 4) followed by Turkey’s new de facto alliance with Russia and recent drone encounter with the U.S. air force in Syria; 5) followed by the Hamas/Iranian inspired attack on Israel—6) with more to come unfortunately.
Will Biden finally get the message from the attacks on the Ukraine and Israeli borders, that borders matter? We too are being invaded, with the encouragement of the Mexican government and to the advantage of the cartels. Biden should carefully digest the ranting of President Obrador who seems to feel he has veto power over the White House, as he demands our own borders remain open to his citizens for whom he cannot provide, while he seeks to influence U.S. elections.
In a sane world, the Biden administration would immediately cancel all talks with Iran, renew sanctions, and stop any cash transferences. (Why were the Obama and Biden administrations so fond of sending so much money to theocratic Iran)? It would stop all aid to the West Bank and Gaza. It would put a travel ban on anyone from Iran or the West Bank and Gaza and pull visas of any currently from Palestine in the U.S. It would immediately ramp up defense spending, especially on missile defense, dismantle the woke commissariat in the Pentagon, and prepare for the unthinkable and existential abroad.
And there is likely zero chance that the handlers of Joe Biden will do any of that.
Following Hamas’ terror massacre on Israel Saturday morning, Abbas’ Fatah Movement has urged Palestinians in the West Bank and Jerusalem to join in the terror against Israel, as Palestinian Media Watch documented yesterday.
The “successful” terror attack, in which Hamas terrorists have murdered between 800 and 1000 Israelis – mostly civilians – wounded over 2,500, and taken approximately 150 hostages into the Gaza Strip, is seen by the Palestinians as a great “victory.” Official PA TV broadcast a Fatah member mocking Israel that its allegedly “undefeatable army is weaker than cobwebs”:
PMW Screengrab of Official PA TV Videos
[Blog Editor: Here is the post associated with the above Screengrab:]
Fatah Tubas branch member Ghassan Daraghmeh: “Long live our Palestinian people, since yesterday [we are] rising up and there is a state of great joy… We say to the Zionist enemy that you and your army that was called ‘an undefeatable army’: Here, it has been proven that it is weaker than cobwebs, and that the concept of deterrence and of a pre-emptive strike against the PA and the Palestinian resistance [has failed]. Yesterday the fundamental message of the Palestinian resistance was that we are capable, we remain, and we are continuing.”
The PA and Fatah top have legitimized the slaughter and capture of innocent Israelis as “self defense” and Fatah has called for “escalation” of the terror.
Hamas war on Israel October 2023 – At least 800 Israelis were murdered and over 2,500 wounded, in addition to approximately 150 Israelis who were abducted into the Gaza Strip, when hundreds of Hamas terrorists broke through Israel’s security fence at the Gaza Strip border and launched a surprise attack, taking control of several Israeli towns on the Jewish holiday of Shemini Atzeret (Simchat Torah), which fell on the Sabbath, Oct. 7, 2023. Hamas terrorists also fired at least 3,000 rockets at Israeli population centers. In response, Israel launched Operation Iron Swords to counter the Hamas terror threat.
[Blog Editor: HERE ARE THREE VIDEOS I uploaded to my Bitchute Channel which are only the tip of the iceberg of how heinous Muslim Hamas and the pseudo-Palestinians are.]
Shani Louk was originally mis identified as an abducted Israeli woman probably because was taken by Hamas thugs at an Israeli youth festival. She was actually from Germany (Yahoo News – https://tinyurl.com/mu874ecw). This video was acquired from a X/Twitter JIX5A post: https://tinyurl.com/etjs3ktb
Although JIX5A mistakenly identifies Louk as an Israeli woman, the description is otherwise spot on:
“Barbaric Palestinians Extremists can be seen parading around the body of a young Israeli woman.
These are the people the Western world and its leaders want Israel to make peace with.
The United Nations is a farce! We have liberals trying to tell us that they came to India in peace. No, they didn’t, same happened in India! Hindu Women suffered such unspeakable brutality.
This video was acquired from a 10/7/23 post from the NY Post (https://tinyurl.com/54uwnhsj). It comes with a graphic warning but mercifully the Post obscures the most detestable views with blurring. The Post either shows other Hamas atrocity videos or links to where they were from all along stipulating they could not verify authenticity which in my opinion is a bit lame.
This edited video is from thequint.com posted on 10/9/23 (https://tinyurl.com/4tjdkknh).

Beginning Excerpt from The Quint
“(Trigger warning: This story has disturbing details. Viewer discretion is advised.)
A horrific video showing an Israeli family being held hostage reportedly by armed members of Hamas has surfaced online, in the aftermath of the Hamas group’s sudden assault on Israel, on 7 October 2023.
The video shows the family desperately trying to free themselves after their captors seemingly executed one of the daughters of the family, in front of them.” …MORE TO READ

[Blog Editor: HERE ARE SOME POSTS OF INTEREST I used to research my blog post:]
Left-Wing Jews who have essentially abandoned their Covenant with God Almighty by gravitating toward godless principles embodied by Marxism which has led to amplifying such godless lifestyles as the LGBTQ Movement as normal providing ammo to the arsenal of Antisemitism. When a call to transform society refutes the Creator you know either a move of God to restore moral thinking is near OR a period of God turning humanity over to suffer in their sinful choices – perhaps even a move to the Last Days when Jesus Returns.
Globalism is Antichrist Transhumanist Babel System
Yuval Noah Harari is a fellow that has a Jewish heritage yet is an atheist and a homosexual and a proponent of the agenda of the World Economic Forum (WEF) which pushes Transhumanism and the supremacy of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Harari is a classic example of growing Antisemitism among Christians. Many point to Jews like Harari and justify Jew-Hatred. Certainly Harari is consumed with an Antichrist spirit.
Check out this video clip where Harari denigrates the Divine by giving deity to humanity as in a Transhumanist superiority managed by Artificial Intelligence (AI):
Brian Wilson analyzes a recent speech made by Yuval Noah Harari where he slanders Christianity and promises his followers a new bible and heaven from artificial intelligence.]
I’m here to tell you, throwing all Jews into one Jew-Hatred camp because of Left-Wing Covenant-Breaking Jews like Harari is a dangerous path to embark on.
A good piece of Scripture to digest is in Numbers 16. There you will see the Rebellion of Korah (a Levite like Moses), Dathan and Abiram (both Tribe of Rueben). The members of the Twelve Tribes (including Judah from which the word “Jew” ultimately derives. The same Tribe in the lineage of Jesus from human-side) had to choose between supporting Korah’s rebellion of God’s Covenant leader Moses. God viewed rebellion against Moses as a rebellion against the ALMIGHTY. See what happens to those who reject covenant in the NKJV:
16 1Now Korah the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, with Dathan and Abiram the sons of Eliab, and On the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men;2 and they rose up before Moses with some of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty leaders of the congregation, representatives of the congregation, men of renown. 3 They gathered together against Moses and Aaron, and said to them, “You[a]take too much upon yourselves, for all the congregation is holy, every one of them, and the Lord is among them. Why then do you exalt yourselves above the assembly of the Lord?”
4 So when Moses heard it, he fell on his face; 5 and he spoke to Korah and all his company, saying, “Tomorrow morning the Lord will show who is His and who is holy,[b] and will cause him to come near to Him. That one whom He chooses He will cause to come near to Him.
20 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, 21 “Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.”
22 Then they fell[a] on their faces, and said, “O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and You be angry with all the congregation?”
23 So the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 24 “Speak to the congregation, saying, ‘Get away from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.’ ”
25 Then Moses rose and went to Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel followed him. 26 And he spoke to the congregation, saying, “Depart now from the tents of these wicked men! Touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins.” 27 So they got away from around the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram; and Dathan and Abiram came out and stood at the door of their tents, with their wives, their sons, and their little children.
28 And Moses said: “By this you shall know that the Lord has sent me to do all these works, for I have not done them of my own will. 29 If these men die naturally like all men, or if they are visited by the common fate of all men, then the Lord has not sent me. 30 But if the Lord creates a new thing, and the earth opens its mouth and swallows them up with all that belongs to them, and they go down alive into the pit, then you will understand that these men have rejected the Lord.”
31 Now it came to pass, as he finished speaking all these words, that the ground split apart under them, 32 and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, with their households and all the men with Korah, with all their goods. 33 So they and all those with them went down alive into the pit; the earth closed over them, and they perished from among the assembly. 34 Then all Israel who were around them fled at their cry, for they said, “Lest the earth swallow us up also!”
35 And a fire came out from the Lord and consumed the two hundred and fifty men who were offering incense.
Jew-Haters point to the constant conflict between the 12-Tribes (of which after dispersions Judah – largest remaining, Benjamin and only fractional remnants of the other 10 survive – hence modern day “Jews”) and their Covenant God (via promise passed down through Abraham, Isaac and Jacob/Israel) for blaming the woes of the world upon the Jewish people as a whole. Thus grouping the Covenant-Keeping and the Covenant-Breaking as one lump to hate with vitriol. I’M HERE TO TELL YOU IF YOU ARE A BELIEVING CHRISTIAN, THAT’S A DANGEROUS PATH TO TAKE!
Things to consider:
The Risen Savior Jesus the Son of God and son of Mary was of the line of David and ultimately of the Tribe of Judah. As a Christian you should realize the Lion of the Tribe of Judah is Jesus the Messiah.
Gentile gal asks for Deliverance for her daughter. Jesus shares object lesson on faith. But note: Children=Jews and Dogs=non-Jews – Mark 7: 24-30 NKJV:
724 From there He arose and went to the region of Tyre [a]and Sidon. And He entered a house and wanted no one to know it, but He could not be hidden. 25 For a woman whose young daughter had an unclean spirit heard about Him, and she came and fell at His feet. 26 The woman was a [b]Greek, a [c]Syro-Phoenician by birth, and she kept [d]asking Him to cast the demon out of her daughter. 27 But Jesus said to her, “Let the children be filled first, for it is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the little dogs.”
28 And she answered and said to Him, “Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs under the table eat from the children’s crumbs.”
29 Then He said to her, “For this saying go your way; the demon has gone out of your daughter.”
30 And when she had come to her house, she found the demon gone out, and her daughter lying on the bed.
Apostle Paul (Tribe of Benjamin) called himself a Jew and established principle to the Jew First even though Paul is the Apostle to the Gentiles. Romans 1: 16; 2: 8-11; Ephesians 2: 17-22; 3: 1-6 NKJV:
Romans 1 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel [a]of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.
8 but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness—indignation and wrath, 9 tribulation and anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the [a]Greek; 10 but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 11 For there is no partiality with God.
17 And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near. 18 For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.
19 Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, 20 having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone,21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, 22 in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.
Ephesians 3
1For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you Gentiles— 2 if indeed you have heard of the [a]dispensation of the grace of God which was given to me for you, 3 how that by revelation He made known to me the mystery (as I have briefly written already, 4 by which, when you read, you may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ), 5 which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to His holy apostles and prophets: 6 that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs, of the same body, and partakers of His promise in Christ through the gospel,
The PROMISE covenanted to Abraham is through ONLY one seed (NOT many seeds, for Abraham had more than one son BUT ONLY ONE from Sarah through whom the promised seed flowed). That LINE: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob (renamed Israel), on through the Jacob’s 12 sons, of note for Christians – through Judah, on down through David, the Judah kings through the Diaspora survivor Zerubbabel (who rebuilt the Temple) on down many more through Mary the mother of Jesus. TO WIT THE SIGNAFICANCE OF THE PROMISE is shown in Galatians 3 (You should whole chapter). For summary’s sake here are verses 16, 18, 23-29 NKJV:
Galatians 3
16 Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, “And to seeds,” as of many, but as of one, “And to your Seed,” who is Christ.
18 For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no longer of promise; but God gave it to Abraham by promise.
23 But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, [a]kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed. 24 Therefore the law was our [b]tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.
26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
b.Galatians 3:24 In a household, the guardian responsible for the care and discipline of the children
Jew-Hating Antisemitism severely risks one’s name in the Book of Life opened up at the Last Judgment. There are many who deserve their names to blotted out from that book – Jew, Christian and Gentile in-general who refuse any pf God’s Covenant plan. ONLY people who Believe Jesus arose from the dead to establish His Redemptive Blood will find their name in the Book of Life. The Redeeming Blood washes the stain of sins and rejecting God Almighty. I pray the Covenant-Keeping Jews recognize their Messiah Jesus by the time of His Return.

Regardless of the Christian beginnings of this post, the bulk of the thoughts deal Antisemitism and the wonderment to why Jews might support modern perpetrators of Antisemitism in America.
I’m a supporter of Biblical Morality and Biblical Christianity. I was sad to discover that search engines (and not just Google) have become so warped by Secular Humanism they ignore the standard Biblical interpretation in favor of placing website toward the top justifying sin as normal. The homosexual sin was my first test search. Indeed, search engines appear to me to be so complicit to twisting Biblical wording to justify sin as normal rather than the ORIGINAL INTENT (boy that sounds familiar) of the CREATOR of ALL that exists. So here I focus on the CREATOR’s ORIGINAL INTENT rather than man-made word twisting justifying sin as acceptable. For Christians to contemplate primarily from Chapter 2 of the Revelation of Jesus Christ to the Apostle John (Revelation 1: 11; 2 – Amplified Bible, Classic Edition):
Revelation 1:11
11 Saying, I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last. Write promptly what you see (your vision) in a book and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia—to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamum and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea.
Revelation Chapter 2
2 To the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Ephesus write: These are the words of Him Who holds the seven stars [which are the messengers of the seven churches] in His right hand, Who goes about among the seven golden lampstands [which are the seven churches]:
2 I know your industry and activities, laborious toil and trouble, and your patient endurance, and how you cannot tolerate wicked [men] and have tested and critically appraised those who call [themselves] apostles (special messengers of Christ) and yet are not, and have found them to be impostors and liars.
3 I know you are enduring patiently and are bearing up for My name’s sake, and you have not fainted or become exhausted or grown weary.
4 But I have this [one charge to make] against you: that you have left (abandoned) the love that you had at first [you have deserted Me, your first love].
5 Remember then from what heights you have fallen. Repent (change the inner man to meet God’s will) and do the works you did previously [when first you knew the Lord], or else I will visit you and remove your lampstand from its place, unless you change your mind and repent.
6 Yet you have this [in your favor and to your credit]: you hate the works of the Nicolaitans [what they are doing as corrupters of the people], which I Myself also detest.
7 He who is able to hear, let him listen to and give heed to what the Spirit says to the assemblies (churches). To him who overcomes (is victorious), I will grant to eat [of the fruit] of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.
8 And to the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Smyrna write: These are the words of the First and the Last, Who died and came to life again:
9 I know your affliction and distress and pressing trouble and your poverty—but you are rich! and how you are abused and reviled and slandered by those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.
10 Fear nothing that you are about to suffer. [Dismiss your dread and your fears!] Behold, the devil is indeed about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested and proved and critically appraised, and for ten days you will have affliction. Be loyally faithful unto death [even if you must die for it], and I will give you the crown of life.
11 He who is able to hear, let him listen to and heed what the Spirit says to the assemblies (churches). He who overcomes (is victorious) shall in no way be injured by the second death.
12 Then to the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Pergamum write: These are the words of Him Who has and wields the sharp two-edged sword:
13 I know where you live—a place where Satan sits enthroned. [Yet] you are clinging to and holding fast My name, and you did not deny My faith, even in the days of Antipas, My witness, My faithful one, who was killed (martyred) in your midst—where Satan dwells.
14 Nevertheless, I have a few things against you: you have some people there who are clinging to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to set a trap and a stumbling block before the sons of Israel, [to entice them] to eat food that had been sacrificed to idols and to practice lewdness [giving themselves up to sexual vice].
15 You also have some who in a similar way are clinging to the teaching of the Nicolaitans [those corrupters of the people] which thing I hate.
16 Repent [then]! Or else I will come to you quickly and fight against them with the sword of My mouth.
17 He who is able to hear, let him listen to and heed what the Spirit says to the assemblies (churches). To him who overcomes (conquers), I will give to eat of the manna that is hidden, and I will give him a white stone with a new name engraved on the stone, which no one knows or understands except he who receives it.
18 And to the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Thyatira write: These are the words of the Son of God, Who has eyes that flash like a flame of fire, and Whose feet glow like bright and burnished and white-hot bronze:
19 I know your record and what you are doing, your love and faith and service and patient endurance, and that your recent works are more numerous and greater than your first ones.
20 But I have this against you: that you tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess [claiming to be inspired], and who is teaching and leading astray my servants and beguiling them into practicing sexual vice and eating food sacrificed to idols.
21 I gave her time to repent, but she has no desire to repent of her immorality [symbolic of idolatry] and refuses to do so.
22 Take note: I will throw her on a bed [[a]of anguish], and those who commit adultery with her [her paramours] I will bring down to [b]pressing distress and severe affliction, unless they turn away their minds from conduct [such as] hers and repent of [c]their doings.
23 And I will strike her children (her proper followers) dead [thoroughly exterminating them]. And all the assemblies (churches) shall recognize and understand that I am He Who searches minds (the thoughts, feelings, and purposes) and the [inmost] hearts, and I will give to each of you [the reward for what you have done] as your work deserves.
24 But to the rest of you in Thyatira, who do not hold this teaching, who have not explored and known the depths of Satan, as they say—I tell you that I do not lay upon you any other [fresh] burden:
25 Only hold fast to what you have until I come.
26 And he who overcomes (is victorious) and who obeys My commands to the [very] end [doing the works that please Me], I will give him authority and power over the nations;
27 And he shall rule them with a sceptre (rod) of iron, as when earthen pots are broken in pieces, and [his power over them shall be] like that which I Myself have received from My Father;
28 And I will give him the Morning Star.
29 He who is able to hear, let him listen to and heed what the [Holy] Spirit says to the assemblies (churches).
Way too many people slip into Antisemitism and castigate ALL Jews for the tendency of far too many Jews embracing the Globalist-Marxist-Pseudo-Fascist dictates of the WEF on an international scale and the Leftist Democratic Party (now closer to Marxism than anyone would have conceived during the days of JFK or Senator Scoop Jackson and a few others). To those condemning ALL Jews for the choices of Left-Wing Jews (Jews by heritage ONLY and not by Covenant), shame on you!
If you are a Dem-Marxist voting individual, you might not realize you are voting for issues contrary to specific Torah Law issues which in essence separates a Jew from the Torah-Covenant made by the mediator Moses between God Almighty and the Twelve Tribes of Israel.
UNFORTUNATELY, I suspect the same kind of Word-twisting employed to fool Christians on the CREATOR’s ORIGINAL INTENT also is disseminated to fool Jews. The following quotes are from The Complete Jewish Bible by Chabad.org:
13And a man who lies with a male as one would with a woman both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon themselves.
Pushing Gender Identity Issues among Children Undermines Parental Authority
16Honor your father and your mother as the Lord your God commanded you, in order that your days be lengthened, and that it may go well with you on the land that the Lord, your God, is giving you.
“Parental authority (as much as divine authority) is probably the greatest single obstacle to the Left attaining control over a society. Therefore, the Left, like all totalitarian movements and like all cults, has always sought to undermine parental authority. That is precisely what has been taking place in America over the past few generations. In every case, the diminution of parents’ authority over their children is portrayed as reasonable and even morally necessary, but the end is clear: Allow left-wing laws and institutions to direct your children.”
The Fundamental Human Distinction – TWO Genders created: Male and Female NOT Innumerable Genders
1This is the narrative of the generations of man; on the day that God created man, in the likeness of God He created him.
2Male and female He created them, and He blessed them, and He named them man (Adam) on the day they were created.
Abortion – I’ve noticed among Jews the wisdom of the Talmud (which a kind of Torah commentary) is sometimes given more weight than the ORIGINAL wording of the Torah. Talmud scholars cannot seem to agree on the literalness of Exodus 21: 22-25 with many scholar leaning toward a dilution of the Torah penalty. I don’t depend on the Talmud, so you can guess where I stand.
22And should men quarrel and hit a pregnant woman, and she miscarries but there is no fatality, he shall surely be punished, when the woman’s husband makes demands of him, and he shall give [restitution] according to the judges’ [orders].
23But if there is a fatality, you shall give a life for a life,
24an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, a foot for a foot,
25a burn for a burn, a wound for a wound, a bruise for a bruise.
When the laws of men are held in higher esteem than the Covenant of the Creator, Jewish red flags should be raised.
1This is the commandment, the statutes, and the ordinances that the Lord, your God, commanded to teach you, to perform in the land into which you are about to pass, to possess it.
2In order that you fear the Lord, your God, to keep all His statutes and His commandments that I command you, you, your son, and your son’s son, all the days of your life, and in order that your days may be lengthened.
3And you shall, [therefore,] hearken, O Israel, and be sure to perform, so that it will be good for you, and so that you may increase exceedingly, just as the Lord, the God of your fathers, spoke to you, a land flowing with milk and honey.
4Hear, O Israel: The Lord is our God; the Lord is one. [Blog Editor: In full disclosure this is where Jewish adherents to Covenant have a problem with Trinitarian Christians. Most Jews have a difficulty with the Three Persons (Father, Son & Holy Spirit) are ONE Godhead Christian concept. To which I can respond time will tell when the Messiah returns in hopefully religious Jews and Biblical Christians recognize without any present day brow beating persecution as Christians did in history.]
5And you shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart and with all your soul, and with all your means.
6And these words, which I command you this day, shall be upon your heart.
7And you shall teach them to your sons and speak of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk on the way, and when you lie down and when you rise up.
Returning to the idea that religious Jews who support the Dem-Marxist Party principles might desire to change that support. If you are not a religious Jew but proud of your Jewish heritage, YOU too might to re-seek a Covenant status. If you have not noticed, Antisemitism is rearing its ugly head again. There is actually a mapping project that wants to track where Jews are located. If German and European Jews who just wanted Gentile acceptance would have been more forceful to the designs of Adolf Hitler’s Final Solution, perhaps the Holocaust could have been avoided. Jews SHOULD WONDER OUTLOUD what kind of purpose mapping Jewish locations serve!
Sadly, the CBN News article tries to play a balancing act between what the article calls Far Left Antisemites and Far Right Antisemites. No doubt much of the interview information comes from the Faux-Elected Biden Coup Administration. If you ask a Dem-Marxist any Conservative-Patriot supporting the ORIGINALIST Constitution or Trump-style America First or the MAGA Movement are called Far Right racists. AND THAT IS A BLATANT PROPAGANDA LIE! The Far Right Jew-Haters are typically Neo-Nazis, KKK, Skin Heads, and that kind of ilk which actual Conservative-Patriots shun like an actual plague rather than the made-up Plandemic lies fostered on Sheeple.

READER SUPPORTED! I need Readers willing to chip in $5 – $10 – $25 – $50 – $100. PLEASE I need your generosity. PLEASE GIVE to Help me be a voice for Liberty:
BOSTON, MA – Jews in the US are becoming more concerned for their safety and for good reason. In addition to growing violence, a new way of targeting them is underway.
Creators of The Mapping Project have developed an interactive website that seeks to expose those who support the colonization of Palestine by revealing the names and addresses of close to 500 organizations and individuals in Massachusetts, many who are Jewish.
Rob Leikind, the regional director for the American Jewish Committee (AJC) in New England, is listed and he’s sounding the alarm, alongside a host of other Jewish advocates and community and regional leaders in the Boston area.
“There’s tremendous anxiety in the Jewish community,” Leikind told CBN News. “This is a moment where people feel like things have changed.”
Ellie Cohanim, the former deputy special envoy on anti-Semitism at the State Department says the map puts Jewish individuals and institutions at risk. “This is coming at a time when there is a rise in anti-Semitic incidents and attacks all across the country,” she said.
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) tracks anti-Semitic harassment, vandalism and assault in the US. Last year, it recorded 2,717 incidents, a 34 percent increase from 2020 and the highest number since it began tracking in 1979.
The American Jewish Committee states that one in four American Jews have been the target of anti-Semitism in the last 12 months. Those included physical attacks, verbal harassment and online targeting.
The AJC calls it a severe problem, requiring urgent attention.
Leikind notes that history is repeating itself. “The anti-Semitism which after the Holocaust was kind of an obscenity, today is becoming normalized again. That people who have those ideas, who kept them to themselves now feel increasingly comfortable expressing them,” he said.
Jewish advocates like the AJC see the threat coming from both the extreme left and the extreme right. For example, in 2018 far right white supremacist ideology motivated the Pittsburgh synagogue shooter to kill eleven people.
Leikind explains the disturbing line of thought.
“Jews are somehow the engineers behind a vast conspiracy to turn America into mud people. We’re race mixing, all of a sudden going to turn this country into a homogenous country where white people will no longer exist. That idea sounds crazy to many of us,” he noted. “But it now has a fairly substantial audience.”
On the left, there’s anti-Zionism which leads to anti-Semitism say Jewish advocates.
“The notion that Israel is the worst place on earth,” Leikind explained. “That Israel is the exemplar of all that is bad with the nation state, with nationalism, that Israel is the avatar of modern colonialism.”
Cohanim points out a trend in Europe where attacks on Jews increase when there’s conflict in Israel. That’s now happening in the US, most recently during Israel’s conflicts with Gaza.
“We had caravans of Palestinian-flagged cars driving through Jewish neighborhoods, particularly looking for Jews to attack and in fact they did attack Jews, all across this country,” she told CBN News.
The FBI is keeping tabs on the Mapping Project. In Boston, a wide array of elected officials and community leaders have denounced it.
In light of that, Leikind is even more focused on building bridges and encouraging conversations about anti-Semitism, hoping people will learn to better tolerate and even appreciate their differences.
I begin with stating what Dem-Marxist Lefties and Resurrected-Christ-hating Muslims abhor: The Arab descendants of the Arab-Muslims who immigrated to then Ottoman controlled lands transformed from uninhabitable land to prosperous land by returning Jews are a fake-people. After the Ottomans lost WWI, the land reverted to British control under name the British Mandate for Palestine. During this Mandatory period, the returning Jews to their Land of Promise were called Palestinians as much as the Arabs residing there. The Arabs in the Jewish Land were not termed “Palestinian” until a combined conspiracy between the then Arab League and the Soviet Union created an umbrella organization of Islamic terrorists after invading Arabs lost two wars with a then new independent Israel. Arabs derived the name Palestinian from the terrorist umbrella group known as the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO).

I call these fake-people with no actual history to the Land Faux-Palestinians. You will read in Justin Smith’s essay on the current Israel-Hamas hostilities and ensuing Muslim rioting in the USA refers to these fakers with the diminutive “palestinian”. That works for me. As I prepare to post this, a tentative ceasefire exists even though – as usual – Muslims are provoking Israel patience with acts of violence.
Justin takes a great look at Muslim rioters on U.S. soil, the right of Israel to defend itself and a brief history Muslim violence against Jews merely reclaiming their ancient heritage.
(Because I am a bit late in posting Justin’s submission, I have not performed the editorial sourcing this awesome essay deserves. I have posted voluminously on many of the points Justin asserts. Feel free to search the blog for corroboration.)

Palestinian Protests in America Breeding Grounds for Future Terrorists

“They are flooding all over the city now buried into torpor and sleep and wine, the invaders. And meanwhile, through its open gates, others irrupt to join their henchmen’s platoons.” ~ Virgil, ‘The Aeneid’ (The burning of Troy) [Blog Editor: I could not find this specific quote by either Virgil or in the Aeneid. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. My guess: there are variations of English translations of Virgil’s Latin.]
My blood has ran hot with anger over the past several days, at the sight of Palestinians waving their flag in the streets of America, from I-278 near Los Angeles, in front of the Federal Building on May 15, 2021; to downtown Memphis and Nashville on May 18, 2021; as well as in numerous other cities, including Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Dearborn and Atlanta. They have the freedom of expression right to fly that disgusting flag, representative of the Palestinian Liberation Organization and the Hamas terrorists, who have committed murder and mayhem, across the globe for the past six decades, but it is a fight they should have kept in the Middle East, if it’s one they believed must be waged against Israel, even though an accurate accounting of history exhibits multiple fallacies and a myth surrounding the “palestinian people”.
Jew-Hating Faux-Palestinians Displaying Hate for Israel (photo collage sent from Justin)
It should be a revolting sight for any true American, who loves the idea of America and its Freedom and Liberties of days past, because whether these “palestinians” are recent legal or illegal immigrants or second and third generation “American citizens”, nothing can be clearer than the fact that they consider themselves Palestinian and Muslim first and a U.S. citizen or “an American” second, and they are here as part of a larger agenda, that has very little to do with desiring a better life and everything to do with subverting America and its alliance with Israel, in order to eventually eradicate the sovereign Jewish nation of Israel.
This is reminiscent of a “peaceful” protest by the Muslim community in my hometown of Murfreesboro, TN on January 9, 2009 and again in 2012 en masse in support of Hamas murderers and terrorists in Gaza, along with the discovery that one of the board members of the Islamic Center of Murfreesboro was a radical jihadist.
It also brings up memories of my youth and witnessing a majority Christian nation, Lebanon, being slowly devastated and destroyed, building by building, community by community, with one bombing to the next and many thousands murdered by armed marauding bands of PLO “freedom fighters” and their Iranian Hezbollah allies, during the 1970s. Through this the early benevolent legal immigration and the massive subsequent illegal invasion of Muslims, from Jordan, Syria and Iran, all with their own particular Islamic identifiers and nomenclature, Lebanon soon became a nation largely held hostage by Muslims who loved her not.
I recall the second civil war in India that resulted in the new Muslim nation of Bangladesh, and Dacca and the Muslim massacre of eight hundred Hindus, including many women. Their corpses laid out for days feeding the vultures. A great cloud of vultures descended on the area, unrolling the bowels of the dead Hindus, like so many paper streamers, and taking them in their beaks up into the sky.
On May 18th, it was [JOS]reported by my good friend, Dave Urbanski (Blaze Media) that a caravan of Palestinians drove through LA and stopped to assault diners at one restaurant, after asking for any Jews to identify themselves. Two Jewish men spoke up and were immediately attacked, just for unabashedly declaring themselves to be of the Jewish faith, in a country where everybody is supposed to be tolerant of one another’s faith.
[Twitter video found on The Blaze showing the violence of Jew-hating Muslims in Los Angeles:
— The Post Millennial (@TPostMillennial) May 19, 2021
Hamas attacks Jews in Israel so Muslims calling themselves Palestinians attack Jews in Los Angeles.]
Please note that these are people of like minds with their Muslim brethren in Gaza, who elected Hamas to lead them, by way of “free elections” that only offered Hamas or PLO candidates to choose between; the same Hamas that is largely seen and designated as a terrorist organization across the Free World, what’s left of it, and supposedly the U.S. too. These are the same people who use our Freedoms against us, to end them, because they believe that ultimately Islam and Allah must reign supreme over all, including America and the West.
They are of the same ilk as the Muslim Brotherhood that has been operating in America, since 1962. These are the same sort who assassinated Egyptian President Anwar Sadat in 1981, due to his peace initiative with Israel, and the same type who took control of Egypt during the Muslim Brotherhood coup of the “Arab Spring” — brothers to the terrorist hijackers who took down the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001.
America hasn’t been on such a precarious footing, since the 1960s, when it experienced an unprecedented wave of Muslim “students” from the large Islamic regions of Africa, who were funded by Middle Eastern Islamic nations, under the slogan “Revival of Islam.” A direct result that saw immediate harmful consequences was the emergence of a particular sect of Islam known as the Nation of Islam and the Black Muslim Movement — currently led by Louis Farrakhan, a white hating racist — even though the largest portion of Black America were still standing alongside Dr Martin Luther King, Jr., a Baptist minister.
For the Whites, the Black Muslims held, and still hold to this day, a ferocious hate, along with contempt for Martin Luther King.
How curious and maddening it is to hear the “palestinians” wail over being abused, by Israel, when it’s their leaders who instigated and initiated the current conflict, as well as each and every past conflict in recent memory. One must suppose that they would have the Jews of Israel simply lay down and die before them, without any protest or defense of themselves, in the face of some 3500 rockets raining down upon them.
As such, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is well within his rights and authority to do everything he can to stop these terrorists dead in their tracks and ensure that they do not soon, if ever again, attempt to do harm to Israel; but given the dynamics and the centuries old fight being played out in real time, over the past seven decades, this is a war that will not end, until one or the other is defeated definitively and finally, since Hamas will never agree to allowing Israel to exist in peace.
This is especially true, in light of the fact that many legal Israeli residents and citizens of the Islamic faith have now turned on the Jews within their own country, burning neighborhoods, hundreds of cars and many synagogues too.
In this sense, PM Netanyahu is one hundred percent right to also rebuff the Idiot in the Oval Office, Joe Biden, and refuse Biden’s demand that he basically standdown. Biden is just as wrong on this issue as he has been over the past 50 years on every foreign policy issue, holding true to his record even now, inconsistent and weak, rather than fully supporting Israel and demanding that Gaza and its Hamas leaders recognize Israel’s right to exist.
On May 12th, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) stated:
“The conflict we are seeing is the direct result of the tragic mistakes of the Biden foreign policy. And when you are ambiguous, when you are agonizing, when you undermine our support for Israel, what happens is it encourages the terrorists who attack and launch the kind of missile and rocket attacks we’re seeing right now.” … adding that President Trump’s decision to move the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem in 2017 “made clear to our friends and our enemies that we stand unshakably with Israel.“
Astounding as some may find it, there actually are a couple of Democrats who really get it and are supporting Israel in its these tumultuous and deadly times.
Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY) went on the record, tweeting:
“Firing rockets at civilians in Israel is an act of terrorism, period. The latest rocket fire underscores the need for missile defense programs, such as Iron Dome, which protects Israeli citizens — both Arabs and Jews — from the terrorism of Hamas.”
And, from the floor of the House, Rep. Ted Deutch (D-Fla), chair of the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on the Middle East, North Africa, and Global Counterterrorism, stated:
“Please don’t be fooled by false choices. Israel and Hamas? If I am asked (to choose) between a terrorist organization and our democratic ally, I will stand with Israel every day of the week.”
Nobody who understands history can watch as these Muslims, these faux “palestinians”, march in our streets in their Palestinian Liberation Army war garb, cowls, djelabalahs and chadors, alongside their Communist allies of the Democratic Party, in their suits and ties, all professing to be “pacifists” — the Islamofascists, Bolsheviks and traitors to America hand-in-hand — and espousing the PLO propaganda even in the halls of our Congress, without having their blood boil. All are anti-American, anti-Christian and anti-Freedom, and it is their love for the authoritarian collective — the Theocratic State in regard to the palestinians — and their hate for America that unites them. And the aforementioned are masters at using our freedoms against us to actually destroy those same freedoms.
These pacifists seem to be calling for a unilateral “peace”, one where Israel doesn’t fight back and they remain free to bomb Israel at will. What war are they raging against? [Is it] Only the way fought by way of Israel’s superior armaments? What about Hamas rockets given to them by Iran or their war waged by way of suicide-bombers that take out entire city blocks at a time and murder thousands of innocents?
And all the while, the hypocrites [as in Dem-Marxists] never wave their rainbow flags to condemn Hamas or general Islamic initiated terrorism, as the suicide bombers and remote-controlled bombs take out entire city blocks, like they did in Beirut, while imams preach “holy war” from their mosques.
For one who may be a Christian, it’s worth noting that Jesus really wasn’t much of a pacifist, as he commanded us to hate evil just as he does, and despite his admonishment to “turn the other cheek”, he also was the one who said, in the Gospel of St Matthew, Chapter 10, verses 34-35:
“Think not that I am come to bring peace on earth. I came not to bring peace. I came to bring a sword. I came to separate the son from the father, the daughter from the mother, the daughter-in-law from the mother-in-law.”
And in the meantime, the Leftists and the Liberals, the ugly and intellectually dishonest secularists among us, spout their fear driven propaganda, as they wave their white flags and kiss the ring of the Islamists and sing out the glory of the Koran and Allah.
Recently, Representative Cori Bush, a Democrat from Missouri, actually had the ignorant, damnable temerity to connect this recent outbreak of violence between Israel and Gaza to police brutality and racial injustice in America, as he equated the Communist Black Lives Matter movement to the “palestinians” liberation movement. He added that he opposed sending money to Israel due to its “occupation and systems of violent oppression and trauma”.
Not to be outdone, a first generation “Palestinian American”, Representative Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) stated that she was “a reminder … that Palestinians do indeed exist, that we are human”, while going on to castigate her counterparts in Congress for their “unconditional support” for Israel that “has enabled the erasure of Palestinian Life”.
Often noted by Yasser Arafat, former leader of Fatah and head of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (1969-2004), an infamous terrorist organization and an ally of Iran’s Hezbollah terrorists:
“We plan to eliminate the state of Israel and establish a purely Palestinian state. We will make life unbearable for Jews by psychological warfare and population explosion. We Palestinians will take over everything, including al of Jerusalem … Peace for us means the destruction of Israel. We are preparing for an all-out war, a war which will last for generations.”
If one should wonder about the heartless, purposeful resolve of Arafat, everything becomes clear, once one is presented the fact that Arafat was the nephew of Amin al-Husseini, the former Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. Husseini paid homage to Hitler in 1944, and he was also responsible for organizing some 24,000 Bosnian Muslims under the command of the SS to hunt Jews to feed to the furnaces.
The devil in the details is that the so-called “palestinians” have been given many opportunities to have a “homeland” and a real peace with Israel, which is how they gained Gaza, although it must be noted, they were handed a “homeland” the day that the nation of Jordan was split and created from the lands of the Palestinian Mandate in 1921. But any gain is never enough, so long as a sovereign Jewish nation exists, and the palestinians have become masters at playing the victim, from the very beginning; they are in this plight, because the Arab nations perpetuated the myth of the existence of a “palestinian people”, who have simply been Arabs all along, the descendants of those Muslims who attacked Israel in 1948.
The word “palestine” does not occur in the Old or New Testament at all; however, after the Jewish revolt of Bar-Kokhba in 135 A.D., the Romans renamed Judea to be “Palestine” or “Syria Palestina”, with the intention of obliterating its Jewish identity. The earlier name never disappeared, and as late as the 4th century, Christian author Epiphanus referred to “Palestine that is Judea”.
The “Arab Palestinian” was never a serious age-old or even century-old national identity. The term was introduced as a tool after the 1967 Six Day War, and, according to the British Palestine Royal Commission Report, “In the twelve centuries or more that have passed since the Arab [read Islamic] conquest … In the realm of thought, in science or in letters, it (Palestine) made no contribution to modern civilization.”
As Rosemary Sayigh wrote in the ‘Journal of Palestine Studies’, “a strongly defined Palestinian identity did not emerge until 1968, two decades after expulsion”. It had taken twenty years to establish the myth prescribed by Muslim activist Musa Alami.
Upon the emergence of the Sovereign Jewish State of Israel in 1948, there were no more than 430,000 genuine Arab/Muslim refugees, although the UN asserted 500,000 officially. But ironically, more than 750,000 Jews were dispossessed and forcibly expelled from surrounding Arab nations during this same period. This is the same UN that for many long years protected the Islamic fundamentalist dictatorship in Sudan, as well as in any country where such existed.
President Truman’s International Development Advisory Board, March 7, 1951; and the Arab sponsored Institute for Palestinian Studies in Beirut agreed that 68% of the Arab refugees left in 1948 at the urging of Arab leaders and Islamic imams, rather than any expulsion by the Israeli military. As some Arab leaders demanded the “return” of the “expelled” refugees, Emile Ghoury, Secretary of the Arab Higher Command, told the ‘Beirut Telegraph’ on August 6, 1948:
“It is inconceivable that the refugees should be sent back to their homes while they are occupied by Jews … It would serve as the first step toward Arab recognition of the state of Israel and Partition.”
From Khaled Al-Azym’s 1972 memoirs (Syrian Prime Minister 1948):
“Since 1948, it is we who demanded the return of the refugees … while it is we who made them leave … We brought disaster upon … Arab refugees by … bringing pressure upon them to leave … We have rendered them dispossessed … Then we exploited them in executing crimes of murder, arson and throwing bombs upon … men, women and children — all this in the service of political purposes.”
Today, the Jewish Temple Mount is the third holiest site in Islam, behind Saudi Arabia’s Mecca and Medina, but Muslims believe once they claim a piece of land, it belongs to Islam forever, whether those claims are based on facts or a lie, exhibited in their claim to Jerusalem. During Mohammed’s lifetime, Jerusalem was an unimportant city in the Byzantine Empire and a Christian city without a single mosque. The Al Aqsa mosque is a conquest mosque built atop the ruins of the Church of Saint Mary of Justinian. And, although Islamic tradition says Mohammed ascended into Heaven from Al Aqsa mosque, there is no record of Mohammed ever having been to Jerusalem.
After the 1973 Yom Kippur War, Albert Memmi, a Tunisian born writer, responded to a Libyan official’s invitation to Libyan Jews to return to Libya:
“Is it true that you have said that the Jews have always lived at peace in the Arab countries? And that you have nothing against Jews, only Zionists? … The error which may have been made at Deir Yassine [Palestinian Jewish Irgun and Stern troops inadvertently killed 250 Arab civilians in 1948] is constantly thrown in our faces. Ah, but we have undergone a hundred Deir Yassines, a thousand Deir Yassines! And not only in Russia, Germany or Poland, but also at the hand of the Arab people; yet the world has never been upset over it! … If you really wanted to avoid having us come together on this particular bit of land … Israel … then why did you hound us and expel us from the regions over which your power extends?”
Just as an illustration, let’s recall that 1956’s Egypt held thousands of Jews without trial, after Egypt’s Sinai Campaign, confiscating their property and assets. Around that same time frame, in Iraq, Zionism became a capital crime, and Jews were hanged in the center of Baghdad, in front of cheering crowds of Muslims; and, although no laws authorized the confiscation of Jewish property in Iraq before 1950, the Jews were stripped of millions of dollars through economic discrimination and government extortion.
Anti-Jewish broadcasts from Egypt, in response to the partition of Palestine resulted in the December 2nd, 1947 pogrom in Aden. Eighty-two Jews were murdered, scores more were wounded, while 111 Jewish stores were robbed bare and over 200 Jewish homes and four synagogues were burned to the ground. Aden’s 1958 riots directed violence and murder at the Jewish community once again, and after the 1967 Six-Day War, it became apparent that the Islamofascists were preparing to massacre what remained of the Jewish community, so the British evacuated them. And this scene was repeated time and again across the entire Arab/Muslim world.
This current crop of “palestinian refugees” who have fled to America have been spoon fed the propaganda of Islamofascism and the myth of their victimhood from birth, and they believe it whole-heartedly, uneducated in this respect as they are. It is this same ignorance that holds them currently incapable of fully appreciating and comprehending the concepts of freedom and republics that function via democratic mechanisms; they reject freedom and true liberty because both are too different and antithetical to the Islamic ideology, and their Allah who commands all, who decides human destiny, leaving no real choice for any man or even any room for common sense and reason.
The Palestinians in the streets of LA, Memphis, Nashville, Atlanta, Philadelphia and all points in between have grown up learning to be good Muslims, in the best evil sense of any understanding by an Islamofascist, and, more than this, they follow a certain “Palestinian code” as it was delivered by George Habash, a terrorist who carried out some of Europe’s bloodiest attacks. They have spent a lifetime learning that America and Europe, too, are their enemies, alongside Israel, and that they must strive to unite the entire Muslim world against them and wage an all-out war against the West. And, as a part of that war, along with acts of terror, they have been taught to work to achieve victory by overwhelming the West through immigration and procreation, to advance step by step, inch by inch, year by year, and decade after decade — determined, stubborn and patient — until they have expanded across the planet and Islam reigns supreme.
Trump’s Abraham Accords mean nothing to these Muslims, in the grand scheme of things, for too many reasons to list.
For now, Americans are fighting against this evil and many others with the pen, but there comes a day when the pen is no longer enough, after one sees one’s country attacked and put upon for too long a time, by so many enemies aligned and allied with one another, both foreign and domestic. And, just as any normal red-blooded American would do in the face of an invasion, one fights with everything within them; one makes war no matter how ferocious the oncoming assault and attempts to subdue them might be, no matter what the Marxists and Islamofascists of the world have to say, because the difference between living under any tyranny and in Freedom and Liberty demands such a war, a dutiful, righteous and legitimate war.
This is the same reason Israel fights. They fight to exist. They fight to live free. Their war is a righteous and legitimate war.
