The Taboos and Fantasies that Jews have imposed on the World

If a taboo is a reality which cannot be discussed in public, its obverse is a fantasy, a non-existent reality sustained solely by public discourse but especially by political/media power. These two phenomena are often intimately linked like a mirror image. Those initiating a taboo also tend to provide a fantasy as an alternative reality to that which cannot be discussed. This article highlights the taboos and fantasies that jews have imposed on the modern world. The number and substance of these taboos/fantasies provide an insight into the degree of power wielded by zionists around the world. There are allegations about how much power jews possess in politics, in the media, in the financial world, and in the business world. The vast majority of ordinary people have little involvement in the worlds of politics, media, finance, and business, so their personal experience of who is exercising power is virtually non-existent. However, taboos and fantasies are a common experience even amongst ordinary people. These experiences should enable them to gauge the power of those who have established these taboos and fantasies.

Zionism was formulated in the late 19thcentury. From the moment of its birth, zionists promoted a nazi-like slogan which denied the existence of anyone living in palestine, "A people without a country, for a country without a people".(1)
When they did admit there were non-jews in palestine they denied such people were palestinians because they claimed palestinians had no national identity i.e. they were not a palestinian people.
After the illegal establishment of the jews-only state they denied terrorizing palestinians out of palestine.
Then, once the zionists had taken over palestine, they denied there was any such place as palestine and insisted that nobody around the world mention the word.(2)

In september 2001 the british public discovered that the jews-only state in palestine was forcing british politicians to abide by the taboo on the word ‘palestine’. Jack straw, the left-leaning british foreign minister, mentioned the word during his tour of the middle east and ariel sharon erupted in fury. "Mr straw, who started a four day tour of the middle east yesterday, prompted controversy by writing a letter in which he twice referred to Palestine. The Israelis do not recognize the term for that part of the middle east. An Israeli cabinet minister called Mr Straw’s comments an "obscenity" which, he said, turned Israel from the victim of terrorism into the accused."(3) The jews were so intent on maintaining this taboo on british politicians that sharon even refused to meet straw in what would have been an unprecedented political rebuff. The meeting went ahead only after the personal intervention of tony blair who agreed that henceforth his foreign secretary would comply with sharon’s wishes.(4) After all, blair’s political career had been funded primarily by britain’s jewish lobby so he wasn’t going to turn against his jewish paymasters just to defend his labour cabinet colleague. The taboo on the word ‘palestine’ has been imposed not only on british politicians but on americans(5) and many others around the globe.(6)

This is far from being the only taboo that the jews-only state in palestine, and its allies in jewish lobbies around the world, have imposed on the global political community. Zionists insist that politicians should not use the word ‘occupation’ when describing jews’ military occupation of palestine. Neocons insist that the term "neo-conservative" should be verboten.(7) Zionists have also imposed a taboo on any comparison between the zionist state and the former apartheid state in south africa.(8) They project the fantasy that the zionist state is a secular, liberal, multi-racial, law abiding, democracy like those in the western world.

Zionists have also imposed a taboo on comparisons between the jews-only state and nazism. But this taboo is far more wide ranging than the taboo against comparisons with the south african apartheid system because it includes taboos on all the allegations that the nazis made against the jews. Thus since the end of nazism zionists have imposed a taboo on any discussion of jewish people running banks or hedge funds or private equity groups indeed, owning any wealth at all. There are taboos against public discussion of jews owning newspapers or playing a prominent role in the media especially hollywood. There are taboos against pointing out that wealthy jews use their money for political purposes; that jewish organizations wield political power; that jewish lobbying groups influence a country’s foreign policies; and that jewish individuals are members of a government.(9) These wide ranging taboos are reinforced by the jewish fantasy that jews are perpetual victims. How can they be wealthy, influential, or politically powerful, if they are by definition perpetual victims?

The word ‘holocaust’ is also taboo. It can be used only under two circumstances. Firstly, when referring to the nazi extermination of jews during the second world war and, secondly, when denouncing ‘holocaust deniers’.(10) In the west, the sacredness of the word is emphasized by its capitalization as "the Holocaust".

By far and away the most blatant of the taboos the jews-only state has imposed upon the world concerns its possession of nuclear weapons. No politician around the world is permitted to publicly mention such weapons nor their military implications.(11) For the last three decades, no president, prime minister, pope, or politician, anywhere around the world has dared to state publicly that the zionist state possesses nuclear weapons. This means it is impossible to point out that these weapons pose a terrible threat to every country in the greater middle east.(12) Indeed, since these weapons can now be launched by jewish submarines, they threaten every country around the world including america. The jews’ precise stance on their nuclear weapons is that they will neither confirm nor deny their existence. They have sustained this extraordinary political ambiguity for decades in a world where countries are preoccupied with their military capabilities and where billions of ordinary people are terrified of nuclear weapons.

The taboo over jews’ nuclear weapons has led to one of the most absurd political pantomimes in the modern age: a veritable brian rix west-end farce or a particularly extravagant episode of the muppet show. In the 1990s, the western world compelled the united nations to carry out the most systematic and intrusive inspections to search for saddam’s non-existent nuclear weapons. For the last few years it has also been insisting on intense ‘anywhere, anytime’ inspections to discover iran’s equally non-existent nuclear weapons. And yet no western politician dares to mention the zionist state’s nuclear weapons, let alone demand that the united nations send in inspectors to search for them, even though mordechai vanunu has provided far more evidence about their existence than united nations’ inspectors have found over last two decades about nukes in iraq and iran. The jews-only state imposes a global taboo on its own nuclear weapons whilst conversely imposing paranoid fantasies on the united nations about non-existent nuclear weapons in iraq, iran, and syria.

There is no more conclusive proof of the huge amount of political power that jews have over the world’s politicians than that they have succeeded in forcing these politicians to deny that jews possess nuclear weapons. The jews pull the strings of their puppets and get them running around hither and thither pretending to look frantically for non-existent weapons in iraq and iran whilst somehow failing to notice those in the racist state. Brian rix would be dazzled by their buffoonery. Doubtlessly the world’s politicians have their rationales for not mentioning jewish nukes that preserves, at least in their own eyes, a modicum of their political integrity. But to any rational outsider they are being made to look like preposterous fools as jews blatantly jerk their strings. How is it possible for these politicians to create the world peace they demand so fervently when jews have such inordinate power that they can prevent their puppets from confronting the reality of their nuclear weapons?

Quite clearly, any politician around the world who refuses to acknowledge the jews-only state’s possession of nuclear weapons is a liar whose views on all other issues should be regarded as suspect. Such politicians are almost certainly in the pay of jewish lobbies and thus solely interested in promoting the interests of the jews-only state in palestine no matter how much this might run counter to their country’s own national interests. And conversely, any politician who refuses to be stifled by this jewish taboo should be applauded as a person of integrity whose wider views should be taken more seriously.

One of the jews’ fastest mushrooming fantasies concerns the remit of anti-semitism. Most decent people would accept that an anti-semite is a bigot who has a hatred of all jewish people. But jewish commentators/lobbies around the world are not content with such a straightforward, and politically conventional, definition. They have been trying to extend this definition until it becomes all encompassing.(13) The first step in this expansionary process is to suggest that those who criticize the policies of the jews-only state in palestine and the existence of this racist state are also anti-semites. Even though such people may not hate jews at all, if they criticize jewish policies or the jewish apartheid state then they are denounced as anti-semites as if they were as bad as those bigots who hates jews. It is as if those who hated america’s war against vietnam were denounced as anti-americans who hated all americans. The great political advantage of this broader definition of anti-semitism is that it doesn’t matter what evils the zionist state might perpetrate, criticizing it is proof of anti-semitism. It is thus a device for undermining all those who criticize the racist nature of the jews-only state.

But jewish commentators/lobbying organizations are not even content with such a wide-ranging taboo. They have even greater imperialist ambitions. They insist that the definition of anti-semitism should also include those who try to encourage the jews-only state in palestine to sue for peace with its arab neighbours. Hence jimmy carter is denounced as an antisemite because he encouraged the jews to reach a peace agreement with egypt. "True, this effort has not much chance of success, but people in Jerusalem are worried nonetheless. That's just what we need, Bush acting like that anti-Semite, Jimmy Carter, who twisted Begin's arm and forced him to make peace with Egypt!" (Uri Avnery ‘Ahmadinejad Has Screwed Us Again! How They Stole the Bomb From Us’ http://www.counterpunch.org/avnery12102007.html December 10, 2007).

What this ever expanding definition of anti-semitism is leading to is that anti-semitism will be deemed to be any negative comment about a jewish person, or a jewish group, or the jews-only state. The goal of an all encompassing definition of anti-semitism is to make it illegal to criticize jews no matter what evil they do. The zionists are well on their way to establishing for jews, jewish groups, and the jews-only state, a criticism-free existence.(14)

A recent taboo that zionists have inflicted on the world concerns the ‘israeli lobby’. Hardline zionist fundamentalists insist there is no such thing as an ‘israeli lobby’ or a ‘jewish lobby’.(15) This taboo is at its most powerful in america but it also exists in all other countries around the world which have such a jewish lobby. Then along come other, less zealous, zionists who accept that the ‘israeli lobby’ exists but deny it has any major influence. For good measure, they continue to uphold the taboo on the phrase ‘the jewish lobby’.(16) Left wing zionists provide their extreme right wing jewish colleagues with legitimacy by arguing that although the ‘israeli lobby’ exists it is so utterly powerless it might as well be ignored. Even prestigious wasp academics such as mearscheimer and walt who seek to expose the activities of the ‘israeli lobby’ find themselves entangled in this semantic distraction and support the taboo on the phrase "jewish lobby" even though it is commonly used in the jews-only state.

The latest fantasy that the jews-only state and its zionist, likudnik, neocon, allies around the world have started to promote is that all enemies of the racist state in palestine are part of a huge islamic conspiracy aimed at exterminating all jews around the world. Islamophobia is the belief that yasser arafat, saddam hussein, osama bin laden, mullah omar, mahmoud ahmadinejad, hassan nasrallah, and ismail haniyeh, to name but a few, are colluding with each other to overthrow the apartheid state in palestine and exterminate all jews around the world.(17) Even though saddam hated osama bin laden and went to war against iran; and even though shia iran nearly went to war against the sunni taliban in afghanistan, and have arrested hundreds of al quaeda members; all of this was just a ruse to cover up their conspiracy against the jews. In reality, islamophobia is the hatred that jewish racists and supremacists have for islamic people.

It is a not uncommon experience for non-zionists discussing the world’s power structures or the global political agenda to find themselves immediately confronted by paranoid, hysterical zionists intent on laying down the grounds rules for any further debate i.e. an acceptance of zionist taboos and fantasies. Palestinians? There’s no such people. Palestine? There’s no such place. Jewish nuclear weapons? There’s no such weapon. The jewish lobby? There’s no such organization. Jewish racism? There’s no such thing. It’s almost impossible for non-zionists to debate any substantive issue before they’ve been baptized by zionists into what is politically kosher and what is not. This is almost invariably accompanied by accusations should anyone stray beyond zionists’ ground rules. Zionists rapidly spin-off arguments into semantics to prevent any discussion of substantive issues.

It should be transparent from this cursory analysis that zionists determine politically what is real and what is not real irrespective of, to borrow a phrase, "actually existing reality". They compel the world’s politicians to abide by jewish taboos and to uphold jewish paranoid fantasies:
non-existent palestinians, living in a non-existent place called palestine;
jews’ non-existent nuclear weapons which pose a non-existent military threat to neighbouring countries;
the terrible threats posed to regional and global security by saddam’s/iran’s/syria’s non-existent nuclear weapons; and,
the fantasy of the global islamic conspiracy which poses a non-existent threat to all jews around the world.

Such taboos and fantasies have nothing to do with rational political discourse but are insane rantings which ought to be confined to mental institutions.

There is no other country that is able to impose so many taboos and fantasies on so many fundamental global political issues as the jews-only state in palestine. Indeed, there is even a growing taboo on the words jew/jews which the global jewish elite forces google to acknowledge. The zionists have established themselves as the world’s "masters of discourse" (israel shamir) who enforce politically kosher taboos and turn jewish fantasies into global realities. Zionists’ ability to determine politically what is real and what is not, is a measure of their world domination. Zionists ability to determine the world’s global political agenda is another effective measure of zionist world domination.

Footnotes.
(1) "From its first day, the Zionist movement has lived in total denial of the Palestinian issue. As long as possible, it denied the very existence of the Palestinian people. Since this has become ridiculous, it denies the existence of a Palestinian partner for peace. In any case, it denies the possibility of a viable Palestinian state next to Israel. The idea of turning the West Bank over to the Hashemite kingdom was built on the illusion that there is no Palestinian people ("They are all Arabs!"), so it could suffer no injustice." (Uri Avnery ‘An Israeli Love Story’ http://www.antiwar.com/avnery/?articleid=11258 July 9, 2007).

(2) Even today there are jewish extremists who argue that palestinians don’t exist. "In rereading Norman Finkelstein's book, Image and Reality of the Israel-Palestine Conflict, I noticed that in the furor that occurred in the mid-80s over the false issue of whether there were even Palestinians in Palestine when Israel was born, an important part was played by the great former New York Times columnist Anthony Lewis. Not to get too deep into the issue, but in 1984 Joan Peters published From Time Immemorial, which claimed that most Palestinians had immigrated into Palestine once the Jewish immigrants got things rolling there. She based her "analysis" on British Mandatory records of in- and out-migration. A couple of scholars, notably Norman Finkelstein and Yehoshuah Porath, defenestrated Peters's claims. They looked at the same records and showed that she had misrepresented numbers, gotten numbers wrong. All to serve a highly tendentious argument, that there were no Palestinians, or few of them. Finkelstein says there was a struggle to get the word out. Joan Peters's book was a Jewish bestseller, endorsed by Saul Bellow and Barbara Tuchman. Finkelstein had trouble publishing his own findings. Ultimately Alex Cockburn wrote about them in the Nation, though, and that did some good; and Porath published in the New York Review of Books. And then in the middle of it all, Anthony Lewis wrote a noble column: "There Were No Indians." He called the lie a lie in the center of mainstream-intellectual culture, the Op-Ed page of the Times."

(4) "The row began when Mr Straw said anger over the plight of the Palestinians was helping to breed terror. He also referred to Palestine, a term Israel does not recognize. Downing street said "no offence was intended" by Mr Straw’s remarks. The Prime Minister’s spokesman said the government will go back to referring to the "Palestinian controlled authorities" instead of Palestine. Mr Straw said, "I stand very firmly against the terrorism which the Israeli people have suffered."" (Mirror 26.9.2001 p.5).

(6) "Pro-Israel advocacy groups campaign around the globe against the use of the word Palestine, since no such country exists, but it turns out that globes being sold in Israel bear the term. Billed as an educational toy that teaches young children geography, the widely sold "Ravensburger Puzzle Ball Classic Globe" includes both Israel and Palestine . Although the product has been on the market for more than two years, all of those contacted by The Jerusalem Post, from toy store owners to the Israeli distributor to the German manufacturer, reacted with surprise when informed of the imaginative geography. Demands to change the design have been quick to follow discovery of the error, with those involved in distribution and sales of the globe in Israel saying they have appealed directly to Ravensburger. "I was very, very angry when I found out about this," said Meir Klughaft, CEO of Saheknu, which imports the puzzle globe. "I personally asked [Ravensburger] to change the product, and to remove the word Palestine and leave only Israel . They promised me in a letter that they would.""

(7) "The New York Times announced last Saturday that Bill Kristol is becoming an Op-Ed columnist. Its story is remarkable for a few reasons. First, the article insists on calling Kristol "a conservative" and describing his father, Irving, as "one of the founding forces behind modern conservatism." Irving and Bill are neoconservatives. Evidently that's the new n-word. (And so it follows the protocols of the other n-word: from now on, only neoconservatives can say it, but anyone else who uses the word is antisemitic.)"

(8) See for example. "The two respected journalists (alan rusbridger, the guardian's editor and the former haaretz editor david landau) also talked about the infamous series of articles written by a former Guardian correspondent to South Africa and Israel. In 2006, Chris McGreal published a special report comparing Israel to apartheid South Africa. Speaking on Sunday night, Rusbridger said the word "apartheid" may not have been the best term to use."

There are, however, a number of commentators who defy zionist condemnations and highlight the similarities between the two political systems.

Robert Fisk.
"But in this context, why, I wonder, didn't The New York Times and the other gutless mainstream newspapers in the United States mention Israel's cosy relationship with that very racist apartheid regime in South Africa which Carter is not supposed to mention in his book? Didn't Israel have a wealthy diamond trade with sanctioned, racist South Africa? Didn't Israel have a fruitful and deep military relationship with that racist regime? Am I dreaming, looking-glass-like, when I recall that in April of 1976, Prime Minister John Vorster of South Africa, one of the architects of this vile Nazi-like system of apartheid, paid a state visit to Israel and was honoured with an official reception from Israeli prime minister Menachem Begin, war hero Moshe Dayan and future Nobel prize-winner Yitzhak Rabin? This of course, certainly did not become part of the great American debate on Carter's book." (Robert Fisk ‘Banality and barefaced lies’ http://news.independent.co.uk/world/fisk/article2097774.ece December 23, 2006).

Chris Hedges.
"And the tools of repression against Palestinians now match those once imposed on South African blacks by the apartheid regime, with the exception that the South Africans never sent warplanes to bomb the townships." (Chris Hedges ‘Mutually Assured Destruction in the Middle East’ http://www.truthdig.com/report/item/20060714_chris_hedges_mutually_assured_destruction/ July 14, 2006).

Axel Brot.
The use of the term "Bantustan" in this context has nothing to do with an anti-semitic slur: when former South African premier and Nazi sympathizer John Vorster visited Israel in 1976, Shimon Peres, Menachem Begin, Yitzhak Rabin, Israel Shamir, et al, lauded the South African system of racial separation as a role model for dealing with "their kushims" ("niggers"). During the 1970s and 1980s Israel and South Africa were joined at the hips in their common fight against the kushims (and against the still numerous Jewish communists, hated by the Israeli political class more than the remaining German Nazis)." (Axel Brot ‘Germany, The Re-Engineered Ally. Part 2: Everything is broken’ http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Front_Page/IH09Aa01.html August 9, 2007).

Kaveh L Afrasiabi.
"The US has no manifest destiny, no holy mandate, to "democratize" other nations, including the ones in the Middle East. Nor, as the United States' solid backing of 19th-century oil sheikhdoms of the Persian Gulf or the apartheid state of Israel clearly show, is this an ideal put in practice consistently by Washington, rather than an instrument of influence mostly used against America's adversaries." (Kaveh L Afrasiabi ‘Calling time out on UN sanctions’ http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Middle_East/IC22Ak01.html March 22, 2007).

(9) "While anti-Semitism is gaining ground both in Europe and the United States, Jews must fight back "without being intimidated," Anti-Defamation League National Director Abraham Foxman told The Jerusalem Post Sunday. The new form of American anti-Semitism, he said, is not unlike the old claims that Jews run the banks, the newspapers, Hollywood. The difference is that now, that perception is gaining ground in the mainstream. Foxman said that over the last two years, questions of Jews' loyalty to the United States and to what extent Jews dictate American foreign policy, have been given new legitimacy. "We have lived this for years, but never quite like today," he said." (Saul Elbein ‘'Jews worldwide should fight back'’ http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1182409629306&pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull June 24, 2007).

(10) "The use of the term "holocaust" is usually restricted to descriptions of the Nazi genocide of the Jews in Europe in the Second World War, and many Israelis resent its use in any other context." (James Hider ‘Israel threatens to unleash 'holocaust' in Gaza’ http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/middle_east/article3459144.ece March 1, 2008); "Presumably uncomfortable with a senior public figure in Israel comparing his government’s policies to the Nazi plan to exterminate European Jewry, many news services referred to Vilnai’s clearly articulated threat as a "warning", as though he was prophesying a cataclysmic natural event over which he and the Israeli army had no control. However, no one in Israel was fooled. "Shoah", which literally means "burnt offering", was long ago reserved for the Holocaust, much as the Arabic word "nakba" (or "catastrophe") is nowadays used only to refer to the Palestinians’ dispossession by Israel in 1948. Certainly, the Israeli media in English translated Vilnai’s use of "shoah" as "holocaust"."

(12) Chirac broke the taboo in an offhand comment but was quickly chastised by the taboo masters. "The advocates of the war declare that it is necessary in order to prevent a "Second Holocaust". That has already become a mantra. This week, Jacques Chirac nearly exploded it, when he expressed the self-evident: that if an Iranian nuclear bomb were launched at Israel, Israel would wipe Tehran from the face of the earth. The Iranian rulers are not mad and the "balance of terror" will do its job. But the "friends" of Israel and the USA started to pelt Chirac with verbal rocks, and he hastily retracted."

(13) For zionists global efforts to promote a global concept of anti-semitism please see. "What do Einstein, Mahatma Ghandi, Ehud Olmert and, yes, me all have in common? We could each be censured for racism according to the European Union Monitoring Centre's 'working definition of anti-Semitism' which was last week adopted by the UK's National Union of Students as official policy. This definition has lately been sweeping all before it, taking endorsements everywhere from the All Party Parliamentary Report on anti-Semitism to the US state department's special envoy for combating anti-Semitism. The British government has pledged to re-examine its own definition of anti-Semitism if the EUMC's successor body, the Fundamental Rights Agency, ratifies the new lingua franca. So it's actually a bit shocking to discover that it was largely drafted by a pro-Israel advocate who gives talks on how to elide the distinction between anti-Zionism and Jew Hatred. Kenneth Stern is the American Jewish Committee's expert on anti-Semitism and in 'Defining Anti-Semitism', a paper published by Tel Aviv University's Stephen Roth Institute, he explained how he developed the working definition 'along with other experts' in the second half of 2004." (Arthur Neslen ‘When an Anti-Semite is Not an Anti-Semite’ http://www.counterpunch.org/neslen04072007.html April 7/8, 2007).

(14) The reason that zionists are so intent on hyping up the fantasies about anti-semitism is because they want to combat assimilated jews and pressure them into emigrating to palestine. "If we have a conference on anti-Semitism," he (Anti-Defamation League National Director Abraham Foxman) said, "sure, it could be here. But it would be better for it to be in Brussels. I think Israel is the ultimate answer to anti-Semitism, but as a place of refuge. The Law of Return is the most powerful weapon for fighting anti-Semitism that the Jewish people could have ever created."

Hitler’s Second State

Zionists’ goal of Creating a Jews-only State.
Since its conceptualization in the late 19thcentury, the goal of zionism has been to create a jews-only state in palestine. The hope was that once this state had been established, all jews around the world would emigrate to palestine and all palestinians would be removed, dead or alive, from their own country. After the second world war zionist terrorists began terrorizing palestinians to force them out of the country and then stole their land to create the illegal jewish state.(1) The process of terrorizing people into fleeing their homes and country, or deporting people from their own country, or killing them because they won’t leave, is what is currently called ethnic cleansing. In the days of the nazis it was called ‘lebensraum’: the creation of living room for the german volk.

The zionists’ propaganda slogan was, "A people without a country, for a country without a people". This clearly reveals that from the very start, zionists were nazis long before the nazis came into being. The similarities between these two ideologies were reinforced in the 1930s by a close political collaboration between zionists and nazis.(2) The nazi character of zionism became manifest during zionists’ violent establishment of the jews-only state. Zionists modeled their state on the nazi state in order to pursue similar totalitarian goals.(3)

Jews’ recent goal of Starving Palestinians into Submission.
In january 2006, hamas won the general election in palestine to become the palestinians’ legitimate government. Jewish leaders were so incensed by hamas’s victory they decided to ramp up their lebensraum policy by gradually starving palestinians into submission either forcing them to flee palestine or to die in their own country. "The Hamas team had not laughed so much in a long time. The team, headed by the prime minister's advisor Dov Weissglas and including the Israel Defense Forces chief of staff, the director of the Shin Bet and senior generals and officials, convened for a discussion with Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni on ways to respond to the Hamas election victory. Everyone agreed on the need to impose an economic siege on the Palestinian Authority, and Weissglas, as usual, provided the punch line: "It's like an appointment with a dietician. The Palestinians will get a lot thinner, but won't die," the advisor joked, and the participants reportedly rolled with laughter. And, indeed, why not break into laughter and relax when hearing such a successful joke? If Weissglas tells the joke to his friend Condoleezza Rice, she would surely laugh too." (Gideon Levy ‘A Chilling Heartlessness: As Israel's Hamas Team Laughs’ http://www.counterpunch.org/levy02202006.html February 20, 2006). The jews continually launched military raids into occupied palestine, taking care to maximize civilian fatalities, and then used palestinians’ token acts of resistance to whip up domestic and international support for tightening the blockade.(4)

Gaza: From Refugee Camp to Prison to Concentration Camp.
Gaza becomes a Refugee Camp.
In 1948, jewish terrorists drove hundreds of thousands of palestinians from their homes to establish as racially pure a jewish state as it was practically feasible to create at that moment in time given the military balance of power in the middle east. Many palestinians ended up in refugee camps in neighbouring countries where they and their offspring still live in appalling conditions. Some fled to the gaza strip which became an internal refugee camp. "With just under two million people, it (the gaza strip) has one of the world's highest population densities. Half of all the people in Gaza are refugees, or their descendants, from Israeli wars." (Peter Beaumont ‘Gaza's falling wall changes Middle East map for ever’ http://observer.guardian.co.uk/world/story/0,,2247566,00.html January 27, 2008).

Gaza becomes an Occupied Territory.
After the 1967 war, the jewish army occupied the gaza strip and the west bank and forced palestinians to live under brutal military rule. The jews turned palestinians into stateless people in their own country and took the opportunity to deport as many as they could.(5) For the following forty years, the jews denied palestinians any political rights but allowed them a small degree of economic development.(6)

Gaza becomes a Prison.
After hamas’s electoral victory in january 2006, the jews turned gaza into something resembling an open prison. Palestinians were stopped from exporting/importing commodities without the express permission of their jailers which was usually not forthcoming leaving huge amounts of food to rot at the borders between the two political entities. Palestinians’ living standards plummeted.(7)

However, as the jews’ blockade on gaza tightened and the jewish wehrmacht killed increasing numbers of innocent palestinians, comparisons between gaza and an open prison became increasingly divorced from reality. "A refugee camp now for three generations, it should feel like a dump for unwanted humanity: but everywhere you go you are impressed by the resilience of people, their deep desire to get on and lead better lives. The world's largest prison, Gaza is often called, but that understates it. At least in a prison, people know more or less how long they are going to be there. Gaza is the world capital of uncertainty, of lives unfulfilled. So much suffering for so many in such a confined space is literally unbearable." (Barbara Stocking, Director of Oxfam ‘The state of Gaza should shame us all’ http://www.telegraph.co.uk/opinion/main.jhtml?xml=/opinion/2008/02/01/do0108.xml January 31, 2008).

Gaza becomes a Concentration Camp.
In june 2007, hamas overthrew the quisling palestinian authority in gaza thereby pre-empting an attack on hamas by a paramilitary force led by mohammad dahlan which had been financed and armed by likudniks in the bush regime and by the jews-only state. The jews were appalled by this turn of events and used this as an excuse to transform gaza into a concentration camp. In civilized countries, prisoners are given regular meals, decent accommodation, and are legally entitled to be protected from vindictive or cruel treatment at the hands of prison guards and other prisoners. However, in the gazan concentration camp, the jews were intent on starving, brutalizing, or executing, their prisoners. They employed a range of population reduction methods from targeted assassinations; military incursions maximizing the "accidental" deaths of innocent palestinians; the denial of hospital treatment for sick people or pregnant women which often led to fatalities; the refusal to allow in medicines. The jews increased their culling of palestinians albeit at a rate which wouldn’t arouse too much global indignation. They used access to medical treatment as a bribe to extract information about gaza’s palestinian inmates.

In the 1930s the nazis organized conferences for state and party officials to ensure the legality of their extermination programme. This preoccupation with providing legal cover for acts of barbarism, is yet another tactic the zionist state has borrowed from the nazis. In 1967, after the jewish invasion of gaza and the west bank the legal status of these two palestinian enclaves was defined by international law as areas under occupation. This meant the jewish military had a legal duty to look after their palestinian prisoners. However, after the democratically elected hamas government forced the palestinian authority out of gaza, the jews-only state redesignated gaza as a "hostile entity" to make it legally permissible for jews to deny food, energy, medicines, water, etc, to their palestinian inmates.(8) In other words, they transformed gaza from a prison to a concentration camp.(9)

Jews carrying out Genocide in Gaza.
After the conceptualization of zionism in the late 19thcentury, zionists endlessly debated how to get rid of palestine’s indigenous peoples. They faced exactly the same dilemma about what to do with palestinians that the nazis would face four decades later over europe’s jews: mass deportations or mass extermination. (They had no more interest in reaching a peace accord with palestinians than the nazis desired peace with european jews). But, after the founding of the zionist state, neither option was viable. The mass expulsion of all palestinians was much too dangerous politically and militarily since such huge numbers of palestinians in neighbouring countries might have encouraged them to launch revenge attacks on the jews-only state leading to a regional war. The mass extermination of palestinians was simply not politically feasible given the emergence of a new world order in which two superpowers, russia and america, competed for allies to boost their international dominance. So the jews’ only option was terrorizing palestinians on a piecemeal basis without arousing too much global indignation. However, after the collapse of the soviet empire and the increasing control of america’s jewish elite over the bush regime, the jews acquired a freehand to implement their long term objective of genocide against the palestinian people.(10)

A Jewish Nazi Promises a Holocaust against the Palestinians.
The rise of nazi, and stalinist, totalitarian forms of government and the second world war resulted in the slaughter of around 50 million people. This outbreak of totalitarianism was the most self-destructive carnage in human history. However, zionist propagandists abstracted from this terrible series of events the idea of "a holocaust" inflicted on only one group of people. Over the decades, this propaganda had two consequences. Firstly, "the holocaust" became more politically significant than totalitarianism and the second world war. Secondly, focussing attention on the deaths of millions of jews pushed the deaths of all others in this global carnage into the background. The holocaust industry’s propaganda was so successful that today it is possible to ask any westerner what they understand by the phrase "the Holocaust" and they will refer solely to the extermination of jews as if the deaths of all others during the age of totalitarianism did not matter or did not occur. Today, nobody talks about a polish holocaust, (11) a russian holocaust, an european holocaust, or even a german holocaust. The so-called "Holocaust" (Shoah) is a jews-only phenomenon.

Jewish revisionists have corrupted history by fabricating the notion of a "jews-only Holocaust" which deserves greater political prominence than nazi/stalinist totalitarianism, the second world war, and the deaths of 50 million people. The "jews-only Holocaust" is not merely the worst that has ever happened in human history (not true); nothing like it has happened since (not true); and it is the worst that could ever happen in human history (highly unlikely). It has assumed such monumental phantasmagorical proportions that it now verges on the blasphemous for anyone to draw comparisons between it and other massacres in human history. "The centrality of the Holocaust in Jewish consciousness caused the Jews to insist on its absolute exclusiveness. We are shocked and furious when somebody tries to remind us that the Nazis exterminated other communities too, such as the Roma, the homosexuals and the mentally ill. We get very angry when somebody comes and compares "our" Holocaust with other genocides: Armenians, Cambodians, Tutsis in Ruanda and others. Really! How can one compare?" (Uri Avnery ‘Memory of the Holocaust: from Jewish property into human possession’ http://www.gush-shalom.org/archives.html#articles March 19, 2005).(12)

At the end of february 2008, the zionist’s deputy defence minister, speaking in hebrew, suddenly blurted out that the zionist state was intent on inflicting an even greater Shoah on palestinians than the nazis had inflicted on the jews. "The more Qassam fire intensifies and the rockets reach a longer range, they will bring upon themselves a bigger holocaust because we will use all our might to defend ourselves," Matan Vilnai, the Deputy Defence Minister said." (James Hider ‘Israel threatens to unleash 'holocaust' in Gaza’ http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/middle_east/article3459144.ece March 1, 2008). This confession was an explosive political shock for many reasons.

Firstly, vilnai was implying the jews could be even more barbaric than the nazis.

Secondly, if vilnai was justifying a jewish holocaust against palestinians wasn’t he also justifying the nazi holocaust against jews? "Well, if Israel thinks that carrying out a holocaust against its victims in Gaza and Rafah and Khan Younis can be justified, then why blame Hitler for effecting a holocaust against his own respective enemies? Is Vilnai vindicating the holocaust?" (Khalid Amayreh ‘Jews and the Gaza Holocaust’ http://peacepalestine.blogspot.com/ March 1, 2008).

Thirdly, vilnai was implying the jews were like nazis. "It is clear beyond any doubt that the Israeli Deputy Defence Minister was far from being reluctant to equate Israel with Nazi Germany when revealing the genocidal future awaiting the Palestinian people …" (Gilad Atzmon ‘Freedom of Speech: the right to equate Gaza with Auschwitz’ http://peacepalestine.blogspot.com/2008/03/gilad-atzmon-freedom-of-speech-right-to.html March 01, 2008).

Fourthly, the word Shoah is supposed to be used only about the nazi slaughter of jews so when vilnai used it to threaten palestinians he was debasing one of the sacred tenets of this new secular religion. "Is it only when Israeli Deputy Defense Minister Matan Vilnai used the word shoah to describe what will come to Gaza that some media outlets took note. Here was an Israeli government official himself invoking the Holocaust, of his people's most horrific massacre, in reference to the fate of Gaza. But it was not necessarily because Gazans may suffer the same fate that they were perturbed, but rather that this event, this phrase, genocide or holocaust, could be used with such seeming levity, that using such a loaded term may somehow lessen the true horror of the original act." (Laila El-Haddad ‘The Gaza genocide’ http://electronicintifada.net/v2/article9359.shtml March 02, 2008). What made the blasphemy even worse was that the blasphemer was jewish.

A number of jewish commentators immediately responded to this public relations’ disaster by trying to muddy the water to limit the political damage so the world wouldn’t take vilnai’s statement at face value and would not infer that those carrying out this "bigger holocaust" were jewish nazis.(13)

Palestinian responses to the threat of a Jewish Holocaust.
After suffering from six decades of jewish terrorism whilst their tormentors indulged in the financially and morally extortionate propaganda of ‘There’s no Business Like Shoah Business’, palestinians were quick to highlight the jewish threat of a "Shoah" against them.(14)

After seeing dozens of palestinian children slaughtered by the jewish wehrmacht, and after the threat of a "Holocaust" against the palestinian people, a lone palestinian reacted with rage by killing eight trainee religious soldiers at the mercaz harav yeshiva. Yeshivas are religious indoctrination and military training centres which churn out judaic fundamentalists to help jewish settlers to terrorize, and even kill, palestinians in order to steal their land and build more illegal jewish settlements.(15) Indeed, true to its nature, the mercaz harav yeshiva had been built on land stolen from palestinians and was thus another illegal jewish settlement. Over the decades it had become, "the mother of all settlements." (Uri Avnery "Kill a Hundred Turks and Rest": The Five-Day War in Gaza http://www.counterpunch.com/avnery03102008.html March 10, 2008).(16) Yeshiva students are jewish nazis who are indoctrinated into believing that palestinians are subhumans. "The Israeli media, which is subject to routine government censorship, normally avoids giving "detrimental details" about Palestinian resistance attacks, especially when Israelis get killed, ostensibly in order to reap maximum propaganda benefits by giving an initial impression that the victims were innocent civilians, not soldiers or settlers. The Israeli media, especially those targeting foreign audiences, also ignored the fact that Merkaz Ha'rav, the ideological central nervous system of religious messianic Zionism, combines Talmudic studies with military training in its educational program. This is known in Hebrew as "Hesder Merkaz" Even Yitzhak Rabin’s killer, Yigal Amir, is reportedly to have studied at the Merkaz Ha’rav." (Khalid Amayreh ‘Soldiers (not innocent students) killed at settler center’ http://www.palestine-info.co.uk/en/default.aspx?xyz=U6Qq7k%2bcOd87MDI46m9rUxJEpMO%2bi1s7xuuuYm7oomTPYJk4BeOWi9mLJClAaA63K5veXEh2NaO3xfRKU1H1tafb1RMerIE1CDIHjC9ZHY6M009NrGmnxpzZRGkXe%2b%2fS%2f2aYKRl62IM%3d March 08, 2008).

The yeshiva rabbinical council’s response to the revenge attack was to demand an increase in the jewish seige of gaza. "The responsibility for the massacre lies with the governments of Israel, which for years have displayed weakness and exhaustion and have seen to the armament of the enemy," the Yesha Rabbinical Council wrote in a stinging rebuke of the Israeli leadership following the Thursday's deadly terror attack against a Jerusalem yeshiva. Calling the seminary a "flagship of those who love the Torah and the country," the council vowed that the spirit of the yeshiva would "triumph over the evil." Many of the students who attend Mercaz HaRav belong to the settlement movement. "Even now, the government is continuing to supply electricity and fuel to the Gaza Strip and negotiate with a Holocaust denier (an apparent reference to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas) over the division of Israel and holy Jerusalem," wrote the council." (‘Yesha rabbis: Government responsible for yeshiva massacre’ http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3516098,00.html March 07, 2008). One rabbi made his desires clear. "Meanwhile, a prominent rabbi has once again called the Palestinians Amalekites, which the Bible says "must be destroyed" and "wiped out from the face of earth." Amalekites were members of an ancient nomadic people of ancient Palestine which the Bible says were descendants of Esau's grandson, Amalek. The Rabbi, Ya’akov Shapira, who is also the current Director of Merkaz Ha’rav, suggested that all Palestinians would have to be exterminated. "The murderers are the Amalekites of our day, coming to remind us that Amalekites have not disappeared, just changed their appearance," the rabbi was quoted as saying." (Khalid Amayreh ‘Soldiers (not innocent students) killed at settler center’ http://www.palestine-info.co.uk/en/default.aspx?xyz=U6Qq7k%2bcOd87MDI46m9rUxJEpMO%2bi1s7xuuuYm7oomTPYJk4BeOWi9mLJClAaA63K5veXEh2NaO3xfRKU1H1tafb1RMerIE1CDIHjC9ZHY6M009NrGmnxpzZRGkXe%2b%2fS%2f2aYKRl62IM%3d March 08, 2008).(17)

Conclusions.
Zionists are as bad as the Nazis.
Zionists are transforming gaza into a concentration camp with the objective of starving or terrorizing palestinians into leaving palestine or simply slaughtering them. They are carrying out a lebensraum policy.(18) In other words, a genocide, a holocaust, against the palestinian people. What the zionist state is doing to six million palestinians is in principle no different from what the nazis did to the jews.(19)

Hitler’s Second State.
The connections between zionism and nazism are blatant. The originators of zionism in the late 19thcentury were intent on establishing a racially pure jewish state. They endlessly discussed whether it would be better to deport palestinians or to exterminate them (whilst frequently pretending they did not exist). The zionists most famous battle cry "A people without a country, for a country without a people" was nazi-like long before hitler founded nazism. It is exactly the sort of slogan hitler could have used when talking about the german colonization of poland and russia. In terms of the development of political concepts, zionist ideology provided hitler with important ideas in his formulation of nazism.

Zionist ideology did not merely help to give birth to nazi ideology. Throughout hitler’s time in power zionists enthusiastically co-operated with the nazis because they believed the nazis would help them create a jewish state in palestine. Zionists did not object to the nazis’ anti-semitic propaganda because they realized that the more the nazis alienated assimilated german jews the more such jews would want to emigrate to palestine to set up a jews-only state.(20) Zionists controlled jewish communities across europe.(21) They compelled jews to co-operate fully with the nazis when jews were being stripped of their assets and citizenship before being shipped east to oblivion. Zionists demands for jewish people to abide by nazi orders led to millions of jews walking to their deaths like Sheep. If jewish people had refused to cooperate with the nazis, even if they’d only refused to answer their front doors when the nazis came to pick them up to take them to the railway station, the numbers of jews who lost their lives would have been a fraction of those eventually lost. Zionists ended up sacrificing millions of jews in order to push small numbers of jews to palestine to fight for a jewish state. The zionists were responsible for a significant proportion of jewish deaths during the nazi period because of their insistence on jewish co-operation with the nazis.

In many ways there would never have been a jews-only state in palestine without the nazis. Balfour’s imperial commitment to a jewish homeland and the growing political and economic power of jews living in america both contributed to the establishment of the jews-only state in palestine but the biggest contributor was adolf hitler. Without hitler’s rise to power, without his provoking the second world war, and without his efforts to exterminate jews, the zionists would never have succeeded in de-assimilating jews from their country of birth and then helping them to escape to palestine to create a zionist state. And the jewish state would never have been recognized internationally if the international community hadn’t been sympathetic to the jewish people for what the nazis had inflicted on them. The international community’s sympathy for the jews deterred it from raising any objections when the zionists used nazi methods to create a zionist state and modeled their jews-only state upon nazi principles.

The jews-only state is in many ways hitler’s second state. It is a monument to nazi principles. The jews undoubtedly suffered a terrible nakba during the nazi reign but the zionist propaganda of "the Holocaust’ has been cynically used to cover up some hideous nazi-like realities. Firstly, that zionists collaborated with the nazis to inflict a catastrophe on their own people. Secondly, zionists manipulated european guilt about the slaughter of european jews to win support for the creation of a jews-only state based on nazi principles. And, thirdly, that zionists have been inflicting a "nazi holocaust" on palestinians for the last sixty years.(22)

The Zionists’ Promotion of a Third World War.
After the stupendous carnage of the second world war it might have been thought that today no rational decent person would ever want the world to suffer another such massive outbreak of death and destruction. And yet jewish zionist commentators seem intent on provoking world war three (or world war four as some of them suggest). "I hope and pray that President Bush will do it (attack iran). Although many persist in denying it, I continue to believe that what Sept 11, 2001, did was to plunge us headlong into nothing less than another world war. I call this new war World War IV, because I also believe that what is generally known as the Cold War was actually World War III, and that this one bears a closer resemblance to that great conflict than it does to World War II." (Norman Podhoretz ‘The Case for Bombing Iran’ http://www.opinionjournal.com/federation/feature/?id=110010139 May 30, 2007). Jewish zionists, and they alone, concocted the idea of a third/fourth world war. They are the sole promoters of such a world war. And they are the primary activists manipulating the world’s greatest military power into another such war. Jewish zionists, and jewish zionists alone, initiated this monstrously evil policy which is now becoming popular amongst zionist quislings like george bush, tony blair, gordon brown, and nicholas sarkosy.(23)

The critical question that needs to be asked is not how terrible was the jews’ suffer during the reign of nazism but what was the true horror involved in nazi totalitarianism? Certainly the nazis’ extermination of minorities from the mentally retarded, the disabled, to homosexuals, and those on the extreme left was horrifying. As was the extermination of non-arayan peoples from gypsies, poles, russians, slavs, and jews. The appearance of extermination camps revealed the nazis’ shocking depravity and monstrous evil. Perhaps even more horrifying is that millions of ordinary, civilized, non-racist, law abiding, people contributed to this extermination process. The appearance of extermination camps in the centre of europe being run by ordinary civilized people shakes to the core our understanding of a civilized society. How is it possible to gauge whether a society is civilized enough to resist such a moral collapse or not? But the greatest horror of nazism is something much more obvious: its virulent warmongering, its constant invasion of one country after another, until the whole world was swallowed up in death and destruction. The essence of nazism was not concentration camps nor ideology but the desire to wage perpetual war, a war without end, a world war to achieve its long term political objectives. Today, those who support world war three are by definition the new nazis and most of them are jewish zionists.

The zionists manipulated america into the invasion of afghanistan. There was no need for the american military to invade afghanistan. American politicians had spent the 1980s condemning the soviet empire for invading and occupying the country. The bush regime could have sent in a crack team of military specialists to track down and capture osama bin laden. But zionists and the american jewish lobby were desperate to push the american military into the greater middle east because they saw this as the first step in a series of wars leading to world war three. The invasion of afghanistan was not a one-off military move designed to capture or kill a group of terrorists. It was the first step towards world war three. The invasion of iraq had nothing to do with saddam’s non-existent nuclear weapons nor his non-existent relationship with al quaeda. It was the second step towards world war three. Zionists are currently stirring up islamophobia against lebanon, syria, and iran, in the hope that the next war against one of these countries will trigger world war three. The turmoil created by america’s proxy zionist invasions of afghanistan and iraq has now spread to pakistan and zionist commentators are arguing there is now a need to invade that country as well. And zionists are similarly stirring up demands for intervention in egypt and saudi arabia. There is no point in objecting to the invasion of afghanistan, and then objecting to the invasion of iraq, and then objecting to an invasion of iran or pakistan or lebanon etc as if these are all isolated events. These invasions are part of a grand design to provoke world war three. It is imperative to oppose the new nazis, people who are so hysterical and paranoid as to relish the idea of another world war. Only zionists are fixated on 1939. They are a mere step away from their goal of starting a new world war.(24)

Zionists compare everyone with Hitler and the Nazis but they’re just Objectifying.
Ever since the end of the second world war, zionists have accused their enemies of being nazis and enemy leaders of being hitlers. First it was president nasser of egypt. Then saddam hussein. Then osama bin laden. Then mullah omah. Then yasser arafat. Then it was mahmoud ahmadinejad even though iran is proud of its indigenous jewish community which has lived happily in the country for millenia. "Since last year, when we gathered together in this city, events have gone from bad to worse," said Howard Kohr, Aipac's executive director, addressing a record number of delegates during his opening night address. Kohr's sobering speech was an exercise in Holocaust analogy. It was preceded by a short video bluntly comparing Iran to Nazi Germany and the Islamic Republic's president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, to Adolph Hitler. "The parallels of the geopolitical climate of March 5, 1933, and that of March 5, 2006, are stunning in their likeness, eerie in their implication," Kohr said, adding, "Unlike the ominous days of the 1930s, this time we must not ignore the approaching thunder." (Ori Nir ‘Reporter’s Notebook’ http://www.forward.com/main/printer-friendly.php?id=7487 March 10, 2006). More recently it’s been hassan nasrallah.(25) And at the moment it’s ismail haniyeh.

Let’s ignore the utter preposterousness of comparing such leaders with one of the most devastatingly powerful military’s in european and human history. Let’s ignore the even more preposterous allegation that there seems to be quite a few hitlers around the world at the present moment which is all too reminiscent of the woody allen film where two identical napoleon bonapartes end up scuffling with each other in someone’s drawing room.

The zionists pouring out these hysterical accusations are exposing their own nazi-like mentality. They are simply objectifying their own attitudes on those who stand in the way of jewish supremacism. So let’s translate a statement made by olmert. "In a recent interview with German daily Bild Acting Prime Minister Ehud Olmert launched a scathing attack against Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, referring to the Iranian president as a "psychopath" and comparing him to Adolf Hitler. "He is a psychopath of the worst kind," Olmert was quoted by the newspaper as saying. "He speaks as Hitler did in his time of the extermination of the entire Jewish nation."" (‘Olmert compares Ahmadinejad to Hitler’ http://www.ynetnews.com/Ext/Comp/ArticleLayout/CdaArticlePrintPreview/1,2506,L-3245121,00.html March 29, 2006). What olmert is really saying is that he is a "psychopath of the worst kind," and that he "speaks as Hitler did in his time". A few months later olmert terrorized a million people out of southern lebanon and then plastered the region with at least four million cluster bombs.(26) Jewish zionists pour out these denunciations not because they fear these hitlers put their survival at risk but as a rationale for provoking world war three. Only nazis provoke world wars.

Footnotes.
(1) According to one jewish politician. "In his speech, Netanyahu referred to historic claims that the Irgun movement was itself involved in terrorist actions, claiming that throughout its operations, the group had always refrained from targeting civilians, with the exception of the bombing at the King David Hotel in Jerusalem in 1946. "Those who followed in Avraham Yair Stern's footsteps became members of the democratic Israeli parliament, while those who followed in Haj Amin al-Husseini's footsteps continue the murderous terror war to this day," said Netanyahu. "When we witness a terror attack, we know that if they could they would have murdered us all."" (Roni Arison ‘Bibi: Terrorists' propaganda reminiscent of Nazis'’ http://www.ynetnews.com/Ext/Comp/ArticleLayout/CdaArticlePrintPreview/1,2506,L-3517325,00.html March 10, 2008).

(2) Avraham Stern, the founder and leader of the Zionist underground terrorist organization later known as Lehi and also known as the "Stern Gang," attempted to make an agreement with the Nazis in 1941. "Stern felt that the only salvation for the Jews was to produce their own Zionist form of totalitarianism," writes Lenni Brenner. "He had seen the WZO [World Zionist Organization] make its own accommodation with Nazism by means of the Ha’avara; he had seen [Ze’ev] Jabotinsky [an admirer of Mussolini] entangle himself with Italy; and he personally had been intimately involved in the Revisionists, dealings with the Polish anti-Semites." The Revisionist Party eventually mutated into Herut and finally Likud, the current political party ruling in Israel. Even though Likud is based on racism, terrorism, violence, territorial expansion, rabid nationalism, and ethnic cleansing, as was its predecessors, Steven Plaut believes Likud is guilty of "cowardice" (even as it repeatedly violates the Geneva Conventions and ignores United Nations resolutions by the dozen). In other words, according to Plaut, the Likudites are wimps and Ariel Sharon, indicted as a mass murderer and war criminal, is too "timid."" (Kurt Nimmo ‘Pantheon of Far Right-Wing Delusion: Plaut Calls the Fascist Kettle Black’ http://kurtnimmo.com/blog/index.php?p=650 May 03, 2005); "This policy of attaching more importance to the establishment of Israel than to the survival of the Jews led the Zionists to collaborate with Nazism and even be decorated by Hitler's government. The best known case was that of Rudolf Kastner, who negotiated the emigration to Palestine of some of Hungary's most prominent Jews in return for his help in arranging the orderly deportation of the remainder of Hungary's Jews to the camps. For his efforts, Kastner was praised as an "idealist" by no less an authority than Adolf Eichmann. (The best study of Zionist-Nazi relations is Lenni Brenner, Zionism in the Age of the Dictators.)"

"Zionism is all about running Palestinians off the land. "I support compulsory transfer," or ethnic cleansing, declared David Ben-Gurion in 1937. "I don’t see anything immoral in it." For Zionists, the Palestinians are "the rocks of Judea, as obstacles that had to be cleared on a difficult path," as Chaim Weizmann saw it. Weisglass’ mentor, Ze’ev Jabotinsky, believed there was "no choice: the Arabs must make room for the Jews of Eretz Israel." According to Yitzhak Avira, a Haganah Intelligence Service officer, the Zionist view in 1948 was that "the [Palestinian] Arabs are nothing. Every [Palestinian] Arab is a murderer, all of them should be slaughtered, all the [Palestinian] villages that are conquered should be burned." Of course, in 2006, it would be impossible to kill every Palestinian and burn every Palestinian village, so instead the Zionist state has decided to slowly asphyxiate the Palestinians."

"The Israeli-U.S. strategy for Palestine is now crystal clear: overturn the will of the people (in this case as expressed through democratic elections), kill off any resistance (Hamas in this case, along with any civilians who might get in the way), co-opt a quisling leadership (Fatah and Mahmoud Abbas), push out and kill if necessary as many people as international opinion will allow, ultimately rid Palestine of most Palestinians. The cast of characters and organizations has changed from earlier times, but this has essentially been Israel's strategy from the beginning."

"Only time and more media leaked plots will reveal what is to transpire. However, the early signs, that of Israel's intention to starve Palestinians through sanctions, coupled with unequalled enthusiasm among US lawmakers to punish Palestinians for electing Hamas, makes the coming Israeli and US foreign policy course even more predictable. While Israel sees little harm in making Palestinians a 'whole lot thinner' as a result of its economic sanctions policy, the US' rash response in chastising Palestinians will likely scar US credibility, or whatever remains of it."

"Their (Vilnai and Barak) ultimate goal appears to be related to Vilnai’s "shoah" comment: Gaza’s depopulation, with the Strip squeezed on three sides until the pressure forces Palestinians to break out again into Egypt. This time, it may be assumed, there will be no chance of return."

(5) There were direct deportations but also soft deportations. "Israel has had a practice for years of trying to empty out the West Bank of its young Palestinian men. When a young Palestinian would leave home to go to college in another country, the Shin Bet would visit the young man’s parents, telling them that their son was wanted for unspecified crimes that were made up on the spot. The reaction of the parents was predictable. They would get word to their son that the Shin Bet was looking for him, and that he should never come back to Palestine. One such Palestinian, Sami Ismail, who was attending college in Michigan in the 1970s, learned that his father was seriously ill. He immediately made plans to return to the West Bank for what he was certain would be his father’s funeral. The FBI, which obviously had been watching Sami, informed the Shin Bet that he was on his way back to Israel. He was arrested at the Tel Aviv airport and put in prison. After being beaten and tortured, he was, a few years later, released and is now back in Michigan." (James Abourezk ‘The Bully of the Middle East’ Review of John J. Mearsheimer and Stephen M.

The soft form of deportation has even been imposed on palestinian israelis who are supposed to have far more rights than their stateless palestinian counterparts. "Israel cancelled the east Jerusalem residence permits of a record number of Palestinians in 2006, effectively expelling them from the city, the human rights groups B'Tselem said on Sunday. A total of 1,363 Palestinians had their residence permits withdrawn last year compared with just 222 in 2005, the watchdog said, basing its figures on interior ministry statistics."

(6) The situation became even worse after 2005 when the jews pulled out of gaza. Palestinians were as oppressed and stateless after the jews withdrew from gaza as they’d been whilst under military occupation. "The recent crisis reveals, once more, that Israel's August 2005 unilateral withdrawal from the Gaza Strip was not an act of decolonization but rather the reorganization of Israeli power and the implementation of neo-colonial rule. Israel realized that in order to maintain sovereignty all it would have to do is preserve its monopoly over the legitimate means of movement. Very different from the withdrawal of British forces from the various colonies of old, it accordingly continued to dominate Gaza's borders, transforming the Strip into a container of sorts whose openings are totally controlled by Israel."

After five days of extreme suffering, a group of Hamas militants took the lead, and blew-up parts of the steel wall along the Egyptian border. Within hours more than 100,000 Gazans crossed the border into Egypt. They were hungry, thirsty and sick of being locked up in a filthy cage. Once in Egypt they bought everything they could get their hands on and waited patiently for the international community to intervene on their behalf. Yet the world leaders failed them again, and on January 28, after a five day respite, the iron wall was re-erected and the Palestinians were pushed back into the world's largest prison, the Gaza Strip."

(8) "But this is not the first time that Vilnai has expressed extreme views about Gaza’s future. Last summer he began quietly preparing a plan on behalf of his boss, the Defence Minister Ehud Barak, to declare Gaza a "hostile entity" and dramatically reduce the essential services supplied by Israel, as long-time occupier, to its inhabitants, including electricity and fuel. The cuts were finally implemented late last year after the Israeli courts gave their blessing. Under international law, Israel as the occupying power has an obligation to guarantee the welfare of the civilian population in Gaza, a fact forgotten when the media reported Israel’s decision to declare Gaza a hostile entity. The pair (Vilnai and Barak) have therefore claimed tendentiously that the humanitarian needs of Gazans are still being safeguarded by the limited supplies being allowed through, and that therefore the measures do not constitute collective punishment. Last October, after a meeting of defense officials, Vilnai said of Gaza: "Because this is an entity that is hostile to us, there is no reason for us to supply them with electricity beyond the minimum required to prevent a crisis."

The jews-only state’s decision to turn gaza into a concentration camp has recently been given approval by the zionist supreme court. "The Israeli Supreme Court has approved this policy of mass, brutal collective punishment of over 1.4 million civilians. (Haaretz February 2, 2008). They have imposed a tight blockade on food and medical supplies resulting in what the United Nations officials and international human rights groups have called a humanitarian disaster of unprecedented magnitude with widespread disease and famine becoming a reality. The Israeli Army blocks even the movement of sick and critically injured children. The Israeli judicial system led by its Supreme Court judges has ruled in favor of the power cuts, bombing of generators and water treatment plants and blockage of food, providing an unprecedented ‘legal’ framework for genocide."

Already a massive concentration camp with a largely starving population, Gaza has provided Israel with a perfect opportunity to start sending stern messages to the other players in the region."

In many ways, this is a more sinister genocide, because it tends to be overlooked: all is ok in Gaza, the wasteland, the hostile territory that is accustomed to slaughter and survival; Gaza, whose people are somehow less human; we should not take note, need not take note, unless there is a mass killing or starvation."

The latter (who is also an outstanding journalist) had asserted that the killings in Gaza represented a form of "genocide" and "ethnic cleansing". Arab intellectuals, often wary of the use of certain terminology, since Western sensibilities don't accept associating Israel with genocide and ethnic cleansing, became less hesitant after Israeli Deputy Defense Minister Matan Vilnai warned Palestinians in a radio interview to expect a "bigger Holocaust"."

Matan Vilnai's Aides.
"The use of the term "holocaust" is usually restricted to descriptions of the Nazi genocide of the Jews in Europe in the Second World War, and many Israelis resent its use in any other context. Mr Vilnai’s deployment of the word appeared to show Israel’s growing frustration that Hamas and other militant groups in Gaza refuse to curb their attacks, despite heavy tolls inflicted in Israeli air strikes and tank raids. As Israeli media relayed his controversial comments, Mr Vilnai’s spokesman was forced to issue a clarification. "The minister used the Hebrew term 'shoah' which means 'catastrophe' and in this context does not refer to the 'the Shoah, the Holocaust," he said." (James Hider ‘Israel threatens to unleash 'holocaust' in Gaza’ http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/middle_east/article3459144.ece March 1, 2008); "Vilnai's aides released a statement saying the former career army officer had only meant to imply a disaster. Others defended him as a victim of sloppy out-of-context translation. Tom Gross, a media affairs columnist for the conservative National Review Online, said there was a major difference between "a shoah" and "THE shoah." "It is like confusing a 'white house' with 'The White House,' " Gross wrote." (Ashraf Khalil ‘Israeli's use of 'holocaust' has fallout’ http://fairuse.100webcustomers.com/itsonlyfair/latimes0125.html March 2, 2008); "But Vilnai's spokesman took strong exception to media reports that quoted the minister calling for a "Holocaust" in Gaza. "The minister used the Hebrew term 'shoah' which means 'catastrophe' and in this context does not refer to the 'the Shoah', the Holocaust," Eytan Guinsburg said on Friday." (Ali Waked ‘Abbas: IDF's Gaza operation worse than a holocaust’ http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3513195,00.html March 01, 2008); "His comment, picked up by the Reuters wire service, was soon making headlines around the world. Presumably uncomfortable with a senior public figure in Israel comparing his government’s policies to the Nazi plan to exterminate European Jewry, many news services referred to Vilnai’s clearly articulated threat as a "warning", as though he was prophesying a cataclysmic natural event over which he and the Israeli army had no control. Nonetheless, officials understood the damage that the translation from Hebrew of Vilnai’s remark could do to Israel’s image abroad. Within hours the Israeli Foreign Ministry was launching a large "hasbara" (propaganda) campaign through its diplomats, as the Jerusalem Post reported. In a related move, a spokesman for Vilnai explained that the word "shoah" also meant "disaster"; this, rather than a holocaust, was what the minister had been referring to. Clarifications were issued by many media outlets. However, no one in Israel was fooled. "Shoah", which literally means "burnt offering", was long ago reserved for the Holocaust, much as the Arabic word "nakba" (or "catastrophe") is nowadays used only to refer to the Palestinians’ dispossession by Israel in 1948. Certainly, the Israeli media in English translated Vilnai’s use of "shoah" as "holocaust"." (Jonathan Cook ‘Israel Plots Another Palestinian Exodus: The Meaning of Gaza's 'Shoah'’ http://www.counterpunch.com/cook03082008.html March 8-9, 2008); "The BBC later reported that "many of Mr. Vilnai's colleagues have quickly distanced themselves from his comments and also tried to downplay them saying he did not mean genocide." An Israeli foreign ministry spokesman, Arye Mekel, claimed that Vilnai used the word "in the sense of a disaster or a catastrophe, and not in the sense of a holocaust.""

David Landau.
One jewish commentator insisted the word shoah was a commonly used word and thus of no political significance. Alan rusbridger, the guardian's editor "was also taken to task by (former Haaretz editor David) Landau over his publication's explanation of the word "shoah" in an edition last week, in reference to Deputy Defense Minister Matan Vilna'i's comments that the Palestinians would be "bringing a greater shoah because we will use all our strength in every way we deem appropriate, whether in air strikes or on the ground." Landau said that he could not accept that the Guardian would choose to use a headline with the word "Holocaust." "I can't accept that the correspondent or sub-editor, or whoever was involved in the story, seriously thought that they could justify the use of the word Holocaust, with uppercase 'H,' in the headline attributed to the Israeli minister, and that with all sincerity and with no disingenuousness reflecting it as honestly meaning what the man said," Landau said. The second paragraph of the article says that the word "shoah" is almost invariably used to mean the Holocaust; Landau questioned whether that was meant to imply that the deputy minister had that in mind. The former Haaretz editor said that as someone who has been speaking Hebrew for the past 40 years, he knew that it was not always the case. Rusbridger conceded that Landau "may be right" and talked about the difficulties in news reporting and the way in which writing has changed over the years, with the Internet pulling information out of context." (Jonny Paul 'Guardian' editor apologizes for Jenin editorial’ http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1204546391279&pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull March 4, 2008).

Uri Avnery.
"As if an example for the folly of the propagators of this concept had been lacking, it was provided on TV by ex-general Matan Vilnai, when he said that the Palestinians are "bringing a Shoah on themselves". The Hebrew word Shoah is known all over the world, where it has one clear meaning: the Holocaust carried out by the Nazis against the Jews. Vilnai's utterance spread like a bushfire throughout the Arab world and set off a shock wave. I, too, received dozens of phone calls and e-mail messages from all over the world. How to convince people that in day-to-day Hebrew usage, Shoah means "only" a great disaster, and that General Vilnai, a former candidate for Chief of Staff, is not the most intelligent of people?" (Uri Avnery "Kill a Hundred Turks and Rest": The Five-Day War in Gaza http://www.counterpunch.com/avnery03102008.html March 10, 2008). In other words, when jews talk amongst themselves they are able to use the word lower case ‘shoah’ to mean any old disaster but when they are talking to non jews they use upper case ‘Shoah’ to mean the nazis’ nakba against european jews.

"In June, 1942, in reprisal for the assassination of the Nazi commander Reinhard Heydrich, the Germans carried out a murderous rampage of murder and terror throughout Czechoslovakia. The small Czech village of Lidice bore the brunt of the German revenge, with the SS killing all the men, deported all women and children and razed the village to the ground. Now what is the difference between these Nazi atrocities and what Israel, the "only democracy in the Middle East" is doing in the Gaza Strip, where "the most moral army in the world" is slaughtering babies as young as six-months’ old? I know that many Jews, especially Zionist Jews, have developed almost instinctive knee-jerk defensive reactions to any comparisons between Israel and Nazi Germany. However, the truth must be proclaimed aloud, irrespective of how many Zionists will get angry. Hence, Jews around the world, especially those who support Israel, should be willing to bring themselves to recognizing that what their wonderful state is doing to these helpless Palestinians is a virtual holocaust or at least a holocaust in the making."

(18) "In today’s (March 12, 2002) Ha’aretz, Amnon Barzilai reports on the new opinion poll carried out by the Jaffa Institute of Strategic Studies. According to it, 46 per cent of Jews in Israel support mass deportation (transfer) of the Palestinians. If the question is asked in a more ‘soft’ form, the support for the Final Solution rises to 60 per cent. Nazis never openly declared their intention to massacre Jews and Gypsies, they spoke of ‘deportation’ and ‘transfer’ as their ‘Final Solution’. Even in 1938, these ideas did not have such wholehearted support in Nazi Germany, as they have now in the Jewish state." (Aijaz Ahmad ‘The Nazification of Israel’ http://www.altpr.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=17 Spring 2003).

(19) By brazenly resorting to Nazi-style rhetoric and methods of persecution in Palestine, Israel, with the consent of the majority of its own people and the unlimited support of the United States, perpetrates the kind of crimes that the Jewish state claims as the raison d’etre of its own creation in 1948. A decisive shift that has been perceptible for some time seems now to be substantially in place in Israel, from settler-colonialism of the familiar kind to full-scale Nazification. For virtually the whole of its existence, Israel has modelled itself upon the South African racist regime of the apartheid days: a settler colony, calling itself a "Jewish state" and asserting a manifest right to "the Biblical lands" for a "Chosen People" defined by race and religion, it has been unwilling to grant equal rights to the original inhabitants of the land owing to differences of race and religion, and unwilling even to pay compensation, let alone a right of return, to refugees created by its colonial wars. Instead, Israel has relentlessly carried out a policy that Nelson Mandela has called "worse than apartheid" and the Speaker of the Greek Parliament has recently characterised as "genocide." Even in the earlier stages of the present assault, Ze’ev Sternhell, Israel’s leading scholar on fascism, could already write that the government "is no longer ashamed to speak of war when what they are really engaged in is colonial policing, which recalls the takeover by the white police of the poor neighbourhoods of the blacks in South Africa during the apartheid era." The point that Israel is actively acting on the model of the Nazis was made, for example, by Assaf Oran, one of the more than one thousand Israeli reservists who have refused military duty in the current war on the Palestinian people, in an ‘Open Letter to American Jews’ which he published on the eve of Passover this year, in response to a massive outpouring of anger against his ‘refusenik’ comrades: "Where were all these holy souls, who now scold Tikkun [an organisation supporting ‘refuseniks’] because they indirectly allude to the Nazi horrors, where were they all when a senior IDF [Israeli Defence Forces] officer proudly called, ‘in order to beat the Palestinians, let’s be Judeo-Nazis’." The well-known Israeli daily Ma’ariv has also quoted an Israeli officer exhorting his men to study the tactics adopted by the Nazis during the Second World War: "If our job is to seize a densely packed refugee camp or take over the Nablus Casbah, and if this job is to be given to an Israeli officer to carry out without casualties he must before all else analyse and bring together the lessons of past battles, even, shocking though this might appear, to analyse how the German Army operated in the Warsaw Ghetto.""

(20) Indeed, throughout the history of zionism, zionists have deliberately stirred up anti-semitism because it is their best tool for forcing assimilated jews to move to palestine.

(21) "The reason Jews went quietly is not a mystery. Jewish leadership betrayed them. Hilberg attributes it partly to an age-old Jewish habit of persevering in the face of overwhelming odds. But a more important factor is that both Jewish world leadership and the Judenrats were dominated by Zionists." (Henry Makow ‘The Holocaust As Mental Paradigm Why The Jews Didn't Resist’ http://www.samliquidation.com/chaba_ii-a.htm January 28, 2003).

(22) The reciprocity between the nazis and zionists would only be of historical interest if the jews-only state had transformed itself into a secular, liberal, multi-cultural, democracy like other countries in the western world. But it has refused to do so. The jews-only state has continual engaged in pre-emptive wars, continually organized black operations like the lavon affair to provoke more wars, it has continually stolen land from palestinians and sought to turn them into stateless refugees in their own country.

(23) The ‘war against terrorism’ quickly became a war against ‘terrorists threatening the jews-only state’. It then became the long war. "The Pentagon has officially retired the phrase "The Long War" as the designated moniker for the Bush Administration's global wars. Apparently the head of Central Command, Admiral William J. Fallon, phased out the phrase because of the message it sends to countries around the globe that U.S. forces are intent on occupying foreign nations for extended periods of time (It is startling to consider what isn't obvious to the Pentagon). Now Bush's reckless wars are nameless. For the past year, General John Abizaid had pushed the term "the Long War" as the preferred phrase for Bush's terror wars, but outside the select group of military and intelligence insiders this name never really caught on. When I first heard a Pentagon spokesperson say, "the Long War" I was startled to hear someone so openly admit that this really was supposed to be the war without end that we all assumed it would become. We all know that Pentagon spokespersons aren't supposed to be this honest." (David Price ‘This Occupation Shall Remain Nameless. The Long Lost War’ http://www.counterpunch.org/price04252007.html April 25, 2007). Bush has hinted that it is now the third world war.

(24) "But while you and I get depressed by the horror and suffering, the neo-conservatives revel in it. They devour the flesh and drink the blood of the people of Afghanistan, of Iraq, of Palestine, of Lebanon, yet remain ravenous, and now call for Iran and Syria to be placed upon the feasting table. More than one of them has used the expression oderint dum metuant, a favorite phrase of Roman emperor Caligula, also used by Cicero, "let them hate so long as they fear". Here is William Kristol, editor of the bible of neo-cons, "Weekly Standard", on Fox News Sunday, July 16: "Look, our coddling of Iran ... over the last six to nine months has emboldened them. I mean, is Iran behaving like a timid regime that's very worried about the U.S.? Or is Iran behaving recklessly and in a foolhardy way? ... Israel is fighting four of our five enemies in the Middle East, in a sense. Iran, Syria, sponsors of terror; Hezbollah and Hamas. ... This is an opportunity to begin to reverse the unfortunate direction of the last six to nine months and get the terrorists and the jihadists back on the defensive." Host Juan Williams replied: "Well, it just seems to me that you want ... you just want war, war, war, and you want us in more war. You wanted us in Iraq. Now you want us in Iran. Now you want us to get into the Middle East ... you're saying, why doesn't the United States take this hard, unforgiving line? Well, the hard and unforgiving line has been [tried], we don't talk to anybody. We don't talk to Hamas. We don't talk to Hezbollah. We're not going to talk to Iran. Where has it gotten us, Bill?""

(25) "Gillerman's remarks during an appearance on CNN, where he was spurred on by host Anderson Cooper's comparison of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah to Adolf Hitler. "I certainly hope the world understands [that] this war is not just about the safety of Israel or the freedom of Lebanon, it is about preserving civilization as we know it," Gillerman said." (Mark Perry and Alastair Crooke ‘The loser in Lebanon: The Atlantic alliance’ http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Middle_East/HH08Ak01.html August 8, 2006); "On July 12th, for example, the mass-circulation Israeli newspaper Maariv compared Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah to Hitler, saying that it left Israel with 'one choice: To respond with might, in one fell swoop, unless it does not wish to live!' The resonance with Menachem Begin's justification for carpet bombing Beirut in 1982 was unavoidable. Then, Begin had compared Yasser Arafat to Hitler, hiding in a bunker surrounded by civilians."

(26) This is one that readers can try for themselves at home. Here’s olmie: "In a special Knesset session Monday marking the International Holocaust Remembrance Day, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert drew a parallel between the current threat of a nuclear Iran and the Third Reich. He added that Israel could not afford to stand by while other nations called for its annihilation. While he did not name Iran, he said the Jewish state must defend itself against calls "premised on zealous, murderous ideology, a tyrannical terror-supporting regime that recklessly aspires for regional hegemony, and a malicious program for developing weapons of mass destruction."" (Sheera Claire Frenkel ‘PM: Jews will never again be powerless’ http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1201523778011&pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull January 29, 2008). Olmert’s fantasy about iran is really a precise analysis of the jews-only state in palestine. The jews-only state is "premised on zealous, murderous ideology, a tyrannical terror-supporting regime that recklessly aspires for regional hegemony, and a malicious program for developing weapons of mass destruction."
