Deborah Lipstadt’s double standard on white nationalism and Jewish nationalism

On National Public Radio yesterday the Holocaust scholar Deborah E. Lipstadt said that “the so-called alt-right” is a euphemism for white nationalism, which is itself a euphemism for white supremacy; and the media should cut through the pretense and say “white supremacism.”

LIPSTADT: I would say white supremacism. I think white nationalism is just like Holocaust deniers calling themselves, you know, revisionists. To properly understand the danger, we should call them by what they really are, white supremacists..

I think it’s incumbent upon the media to understand who these people are and the kind of arguments they’re making and not to treat them as a benign point of view.

Meantime, in the Forward, Lipstadt has an article that while critical of rightwing Jewish groups for normalizing Trump’s racism, reserves its main blast for the left. “Didn’t Slam Anti-Semitism On the Left? Don’t Expect Credibility When You Slam It On the Right.” In this article, Lipstadt equates anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism.

For the past few decades, we have witnessed the rise of anti-Semitism from the left. From Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour Party in the United Kingdom to college campuses across America, the phenomenon is real, and it is dangerous. Yet, all too often, some Jews — both individuals and organizations — who inhabit the liberal or left end of the spectrum have tried to explain it away with the classic “yes/but” rationalization: “Yes, it’s wrong, but if only Israel would… then the anti-Semitism would disappear.” Maybe their fear of losing their left-wing bona fides blinded them to the fact that the only proper response to prejudice of any kind — anti-Semitism included — is unambiguous condemnation.

Lipstadt is advocating a double standard. If she is going to criticize white nationalism as a white supremacist ideology, then what about Jewish nationalism? Palestinians routinely describe the Zionist regime in Israel Palestine as Jewish supremacy; and there is plenty of evidence to support the victims’ view of the matter. As the illustration above makes plain, any Jew can move to Israel tomorrow; but a Palestinian who was born there and made a refugee by the Jewish state is not allowed to return to his or her own village. There are over 1.5 million Palestinians and registered descendants living in refugee camps right now. Many laws in Israel discriminate against Palestinians in favor of Jews, including many involving land ownership and zoning that are reminiscent of the Jim Crow South. And if you are a Palestinian living in the occupied West Bank, you can’t vote for the government that rules your life; but a Jewish settler living alongside you in an illegal colony can vote. That would seem to be the definition of supremacy.

So: Lipstadt is slamming white nationalism while extolling Jewish nationalism. The left is consistent in condemning both.

This debate is no longer confined to ideologues of Zionism and anti-Zionism. It has become an urgent American discussion because the Trump victory has pushed liberals and leftwingers into the same political space, of Trump resistance. Some of these anti-Trump activists are Zionists, some are anti-Zionists; and the contradiction is no longer sustainable: the lib-left must support equal rights for all people if it is to have ideological integrity and force in opposing Trump. I would argue that Hillary Clinton’s Zionism contributed to her defeat; and that once Jewish nationalism is exposed for its actual accomplishments in Israel and Palestine, Zionists are sure to lose this debate among freedom-loving Americans.

Here, Jared Taylor of AmRen (American Renaissance) analyzes the Demon-rat propaganda--racist, anti-white, and they're quite explicit about it--all part of the general satanic program being applied by Jews and buddies--still the goony morons of Jew S A, just can't figure it out.

 
Amazing low-key int-view of Jared Taylor by Jew who actually asks some fairly-intended questions, best he could, and Taylor does amazingly well for answers, analysis, and cogent info--well worth the listen, very impressive, in all truth.

 
The Israeli passport is a fraud

Link: https://alethonews.com/2018/02/13/the-israeli-passport-is-a-fraud/

By Eric Walberg | Intrepid Report | February 13, 2018

Writing The Canada Israel Nexus, I came across many ironies.

•Israel is a country, but without borders,

•it has created the largest refugee population in the world (6m Palestinians), rivaling its own diaspora (7m), both ‘exiles’ amounting to half their peoples. However, the Jewish diaspora is comfortably ensconced in the world economic elite or close to it, while the Palestinians mostly live in what amount to outdoor prison camps, or if lucky, snag a ‘landed immigrant’ status somewhere (there are 31,245 in Canada).

•Israel admits it is an occupying force, which implies that it will, according to international law, care for its victims, and leave, leaving behind the civilians and their homes intact. But the occupation is unending (70 years and counting), Israel has never paid to provide sustenance to its prisoners, the civilians persecuted daily, in full sight, and eliciting world condemnation. The EU foots the bill, as Israelis regularly bomb their meagre donations. The result—permanent occupation, theft and all the time more refugees.

•Israel is a ‘nation,’ but without a constitution. What?!

•That brings us to the biggest conundrum—the bright blue Israeli passport. As with all passports, the key box is ‘nationality.’ So there is an Israeli nationality? Which means all Israelis are citizens of Israel, their nation? Right?

Not. The passport is a fraud, or if you prefer the more genteel term, a confidence trick.

Israelis, both Jewish and non-Jewish, when asked at borders what their nationality is, answer politely, ‘Israeli,’ with an ironic smile if they bother to think about what they’re saying. Inside they are saying ‘Israeli Jew’, ‘Muslim’, ‘Christian’, whatever.

The Jews can cavalierly throw around ‘Israeli,’ but the non-Jews know it isn’t really referring to them. They are unwanted guests of the Jewish state. The passport is a lovely dream world, an act to trick the outside world into letting the inhabitants of the Holy Land travel abroad, but is more a laissez-passez, a proto-passport.

The holders return to “the only democracy in the Middle East” or what was proposed in 2011 in the Basic Law, a “Jewish and democratic state.” They go about their lives, but they live in two different worlds. Their real identity is buried at the state registry, with the label ‘Jewish’ or ‘non-Jewish,’ which appears only in your records and determines your civil rights.

•This brings us to the fact that there are two citizenship laws governing their lives, the famous Law of Return of 1950, which gives every Jew in the world the right to come to Israel and instantly receive citizenship. The much less known Citizenship Law, passed two years later, confers citizenship, in very restricted circumstances, to non-Jews.

“Nationality” sleight of hand

A constitutional committee was set up in 1949, but almost 70 years later, whatever rights there are for Arab Israelis are trumped by Jewish Israeli rights. Palestinians make up 20% of the population of Israel, 60% of overall population including the occupied territories. Those who reside in the occupied territories have no rights as citizens at all.

A constitution implies equal rights for all the nation’s citizens. To be a democratic nation, Israeli must be the nationality of Israel, with the Israeli state composed of ethnicities with equal rights. ‘Jewish’ is not even considered a distinct ethnicity anymore, at least according to the US census. Nationality in most cases more or less conforms to ethnicity, but if it differs, nationality trumps ethnicity as a signifier.

As of 2005, ethnicity is not printed on Identity Cards either; a line of eight asterisks appears instead. Sounds good. But the registry knows everyone’s ethnicity and their respective civil rights. Some major violations of civil rights result from this:

•A non-Jew can’t obtain citizenship unless married to a Jewish spouse who is a native Israeli. They must marry abroad or the non-Jewish spouse must convert under the supervision of the Orthodox rabbinate, very difficult. Palestinians who marry Israeli citizens cannot immigrate to join their spouses in Israel.

•Non-Jews, even relatives of Israelis, are not automatically allowed to immigrate to Israel, blocking relatives of Palestinian citizens from returning to join their families.

•The only Arabs who can be Israeli citizens are those born in Israel, i.e., the descendants of those Arabs who were not expelled in 1948 and 1967.

•The Jewish National Fund directly or indirectly controls 93% of the land in Israel, chartered to benefit Jews exclusively. The law claims that Arabs have equal rights, but only Jews are offered land for settlement, Jews do not have land confiscated as do Arabs, and disputes mostly go against Arabs.

•Many services and privileges are granted only to veterans, which means only Jews.

Even the US condemns Israel on these violations of the UN Declaration of Human Rights.

Forward-looking Israelis have since the 1950s petitioned to be assigned an Israeli nationality and are denied. In the latest decision in October 2013, the Israeli Supreme Court again denied the request to recognize Israeli as a nationality. This would compel Jewish citizens of Israel to choose between being Israeli and Jewish. Most Israeli Jews would be forced into an impossible predicament, seeing themselves as both Jewish and Israeli. The implication would be that Judaism is not a nationality but solely a religion, as indeed it is.

This idea is antithetical to the fundamental doctrine of Zionism as the national movement of the Jewish ‘people.’ If the nationality of Jewish Israelis is defined as Israeli rather than Jewish, then the national bond which binds together Jews in Israel and Jews in the Diaspora would be severed.

Arab irony

The supreme irony is that the only countries following international norms with respect to Israel are the Arab states that refuse to recognize Israeli passports, which claim a nationality that doesn’t exist. That is why Israeli governments feel it is so important to get these Arab countries and the stateless Palestinians to recognize Israel as a Jewish state. That would supposedly legitimize Israel without worrying about declaring an Israeli nationality for all Israelis, Jew or Arab.

But that is why it is impossible to do, as that would automatically validate Israel’s de facto dispossession of its non-Jewish citizens. Unlike Canada with the native peoples, the Israelis are not seeking Arab assimilation into Judaism, nor do they want to assimilate them as Israelis with full citizenship. Were it not for the international acceptance of the duplicity of the Israeli passports, the Israeli Arabs would de facto be stateless. One can only marvel that Israel managed this confidence trick with most of the non-Arab world.

The West violated international law by recognizing Israel, a nation with no fixed borders, accepting without question its claim as a Jewish state. The requirement from 1948 onward was to recognize Israel as a normal state, abiding by international norms, without a formal demand on Israel’s part for recognition as a “Jewish state,” which is not an international norm. A clever deceit, but the Arabs saw through it. The latter became an issue only after the Oslo Accord in 1993, where the PLO recognized Israel as a normal state, but when asked to do so as a “Jewish state,” rightly balked. Israel ‘forgot’ to demand this from Jordan. “Why didn’t they present this demand to Jordan or Egypt when they signed a peace agreement with them?” PLO chair Mahmoud Abbas asked the Arab League when they too refused.

The contradiction in attempting to craft a democratic state based on the Jewish race is epitomized in the Kahane amendment to the Basic Law in 1985, which forbids “negation of the existence of the State of Israel as the state of the Jewish people, negation of the democratic character of the State, incitement to racism.” But limiting democracy to ‘Jews only’ is by definition both undemocratic and racist. Most Israeli Jews (79%) don’t see the contradiction, agreeing that Jews deserve preferential treatment in Israel. They do not see an inherent contradiction between a Jewish homeland and a functioning democracy providing equality before the law for non-Jews.

Irony of ironies: Israel as a religious state

The US census effectively undermines Israel’s claim as a Jewish state. As ‘races,’ the US census shows White/ Black/ Asian/ Native/ Polynesian. For ethnic subdivisions, there is no Jewish ethnicity. Jews are considered members of some other ethnicity (European, Russian, Moroccan, etc.). Jewish is only a religious category and the census doesn’t do religion since the 1950s (a blowback from Nazism).

Ergo, a Jewish state can only be a religious state a la Iran/Saudi Arabia, presumably with the titular head of state a chief rabbi, though with laws protecting all citizens equally. All ethnicities have equal rights, and the various confessions either abide by a generally agreed legal system or operate legally according to their religious laws.

Iran uses sharia but as interpreted by the elected government. Israel, in line with Saudi Arabia, uses religious law as issued by the religious establishment (though less and less, mostly limited to family issues), already admitting it is at least the pretense of a religious state, but still falling short of the ‘equal rights’ bit. Wait! Yet another irony: Rather than its enemy, Iran is in fact more a model for Israel as a viable religious state than, say, Saudi Arabia.

This does not please Rabbi Avi Shafran, a spokesman for Agudath Israel of America, “While Judaism is a religion, the Jewish people is a people. Peoplehood, at least Jewish peoplehood, transcends ethnicity and race.” (I’m not making that up.)

Sorry, Rabbi Shafran. The Zionist dream of a Jewish state was built on sand, and is still, 70 years after declaring independence, and fighting to gain international acceptance. Not a shred of “justice and hope” in sight. Almost all Jews wanted no part of this a century ago, when Zionism’s founding father, Hertzl, launched the Zionist Organization. Many Jews and non-Jews have continued to resist this “idea,” though until recently, Jews were cowed, too polite to protest, worried they would be perceived as traitors to their ‘race,’ and be cast out of the tribe.

Any people who recognize the problem, especially Jews, are hounded as “anti-Semites,” the Jewish ones as “traitors” or “self-hating Jews,” including the ultra-Orthodox Jews who reject the very notion of a Jewish ‘state’.

Why this hysteria, 70 years after the state came into being? How will normality ever be established? In researching the history of Canada and the Zionist project, you find unremitting slander, the creation of ever growing mechanisms and institutions to defend the indefensible, avoiding the underlying catch-22.
 

American Jewry’s Disgraceful Hypocrisy​

Dec 20, 2015, 9:22 PM

Of course Israel is the Jewish State, and affirming such may be among the least controversial things one could possibly say to a group of American Jews. [And when I say “Jews,” I mean people affiliated, to some degree, with the faith, even if they are not Orthodox.] To these people, Israel being the Jewish State is simply taken for granted. So if one told this same group that the United States ought to support Israel, the Jewish State, and recognize her as such, he would be as equally uncontroversial.

Why is it then that when I raise my voice in support of nationalism and self-determination for the peoples of Europe, I am met with skepticism, if not downright contempt? Why is it that when I praise the nationalist parties of Europe (many of whom are actually Zionistic), I am questioned with unease?

It appears to me that the same people who so vehemently call for Israel to be Jewish lack that same vigor when calling for France to be French, Germany to be German, or Sweden to be Swedish. Indeed, a lack of vigor would actually be satisfactory. In fact, it’s not even that: those same Zionists, by and large, fight against the nationalist sentiments in Europe. The establishment Jewish groups in the US, all of whom lock arms for Israel and lobby the American government to categorically support her at every turn, are the same groups that consistently call for open borders in Europe, increased immigration from the Middle East, a full-out embracing of multiculturalism, a weakened national culture, and a diminished Church. They are the same groups that slander and defame leaders like Le Pen in France and Wilders in the Netherlands. They are the same groups that push for the death of Europe and her people.


Quite plainly, any Jew in the US who calls for American support for the Jewish state but condemns the nationalists in Europe is a hypocrite. He is a hypocrite for the very simple reason that he wants national self-determination for a people in one part of the world but not for another in a different part of the world. He is a hypocrite because he wants his country, the US, to protect the nationalist and ethno-centric aspirations of Israel, his homeland, but not those of Europe.

But it’s even more nuanced than this. The peculiar position of these Jews is not so much in their exclusive nationalist desires for one state. It is in their exclusive denial of such nationalist rights to the peoples of Europe. For some strange reason, there is a hate for the European race, and that hate translates into a desire for its ultimate destruction. After all, what better way to crumble Europe than to replace its volk? As it is said, “demography is destiny.” Every other country on the planet, especially including the Jewish State of Israel, is entitled to national self-determination—to an ethnic nation-state. Why must Europe be left out?

The hypocrisy is glaring, and all those who praise Netanyahu and scorn Le Pen are guilty.

One common response, however, is that the nationalist Right in Europe is “anti-Semitic.” (Of course, this term has lost so much of its substance. As Joseph Sobran, an accused anti-Semite, wrote: “an anti-Semite used to mean a man who hated Jews. Now it means a man who is hated by Jews.”). First off, the Jew should not be all that confused when the European he’s trying to destroy distrusts him. But secondly, the hard truth is that Europe is becoming less safe for Jews, regardless of who is in charge. And in fact, the perpetrators of day-to-day anti-Semitic attacks are Muslims. Leftist rule has only ensured a growth in the Muslim population in Europe, which, as we have seen when Israel conducts operations against the Palestinians, spells doom for Europe’s Jews. The Muslims in Europe are the ones who have brought back the pogroms of old. At least the Right has pledged to stem immigration from the Middle East.

In short, I do not think the “who’s better for the Jews” question is relevant here. The short answer is: probably no one. [However, the majority of the far-Right parties in Europe have rooted out all traces of Nazism and anti-Semitism, and are often vigorously pro-Israel, unlike their Leftist counterparts who criticism Israel at every turn].

That being said, with the Jewish question set aside, why don’t Jews about the European civilization and people as an issue in it of itself? The displacement of a people is no small exploit, especially a people that has played such a critical role in human history in the creation of Western civilization. With Europeans’ dwindling birthrates, the necessity to preserve the national identity of the European peoples becomes ever more important. Jews, whose homeland is the world’s shining example of the ethno-nation state, should be at the forefront of this fight. Jews, who understand better than most people the importance of continuation and preservation, should be at the forefront of the fight for Europe. It is selfish to stay out, and hypocritical to counter.

Unfortunately, the Jews seem to be on the wrong side. Again.
 

Meet ‘proud racist’ May Golan, set to become Israel’s Consul General in New York​

Benjamin Netanyahu's appointment of self-described "proud racist" May Golan as Consul General in New York will likely alienate more American Jews from Israel.

“I’m proud to be a racist!” shouted Israeli lawmaker May Golan in 2012, when she was an activist in one of the nationalist rallies inciting against African refugees in Tel Aviv. Now she is on her way to New York City. Benjamin Netanyahu has tapped her to become Consul General in NYC, a position that is considered influential because it covers not just New York state but also New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. This means that it covers the largest Jewish population in the world outside of Israel — nearly 3 million people.
Back in 2012 when Golan was inciting against African refugees she was aligned with Kahanists. In 2013, she officially ran for office with Otzma L’Israel (Power to Israel), a precursor of the now powerful Jewish Power party led by National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. Golan has labeled the refugees as psychopaths, as infectious carriers of AIDS, and murderers — when you’re a Kahanist, it goes without saying that you want Jewish purity, and it’s not only about wanting African refugees out, it’s also about Palestinians. The problem, according to Golan, is that “Palestinian Kids & Teenagers are being brainwashed against Israel day and night,” and that this results in “constant violence against IDF soldiers,” as she tweeted in 2017.
She joined the Likud party and became a lawmaker in 2019, and has been pushing dehumanizing incitement against Palestinians from her new seat in the Knesset. Two months ago, Jewish Power lawmaker Almog Cohen aired an appallingly inciteful video by him in the parliament, where he likened lawmakers affiliated with Palestinian-representative parties to animals. His targets included the Jewish lawmaker in Hadash, Ofer Cassif, who he heckled by imitating a sheep. Cohen refused to apologize later, saying lawmakers in the Hadash-Ta’al alliance were “not worthy of being sheep, they’re not humans” and vowed to “make their lives miserable.” Some around him seemed to enjoy his racist incitement, including Shas leader Arye Deri, who chuckled, and May Golan, who came over to Cohen for an extended exchange immediately following his animal-farm comedy. Golan urged Cohen to shout the word “out” in Arabic (“barra”) at an unidentified female lawmaker, as Times of Israel reported. Cohen answered that he would only shout “barra” to “haters of Israel” — “only to Cassif.”

‘The opposite of what Israel needs’​

Yesterday, U.S. State Department spokesperson Vedant Patel was asked during a briefing:
“The Israeli Government has nominated a minister of the current government named May Golan to be the consul general of New York. Ms. Golan has previously described herself as a ‘proud racist.’ She’s said that she refuses to eat with African asylum seekers because she fears she’ll contract AIDS. Does the State Department have any concerns about credentialing this person?”
Patel referred solely to the “rhetoric” but would not comment on the appointment itself, which he maintained was Israel’s business:
“So I would refer you to the Government of Israel specifically on any of their personnel announcements and how that relates to credentialing within foreign missions here in the United States. But broadly, we would condemn such kind of rhetoric and believe that such kind of language is also particularly damaging when it’s amplified in leadership positions. So – but I don’t have any other updates to offer on that.”
Responses to the reported nomination were nonetheless vociferous among Zionists. The more liberal-leaning were horrified, and several former diplomats called Golan a “divisive and racist” figure and “the opposite of what Israel needs in such an important region.” T’ruah, a progressive rabbinical human rights group, said, “Golan and her far-right cronies are not welcome here.”
The far-right Zionist Organization of America, on the other hand, was elated, with its leader Morton Klein calling Golan “an extraordinary Israeli patriot,” opining that “she will inject a dose of reality to the media in NY and America as well as to the Jewish organizational and political leaders” and “will become one of the finest Consul Generals we’ve ever had.”
That “injection of reality” appears to be a very explicitly racist reality, which Americans — Jewish and non-Jewish — may have a harder time swallowing.
Golan would nonetheless not be the first unapologetic far-right Israeli ultranationalist in the post. Dani Dayan, former longtime leader of the Israeli YESHA settler council, was Consul General in NY between 2016 and 2021. The post is about to be vacated because Dayan’s successor, Israeli centrist Asaf Zamir (former lawmaker in Benny Gantz’s Blue and White party) resigned last month in protest of the Israeli government’s judicial overhaul moves.
There is speculation that sending Golan over to NYC is a move intended by Netanyahu to actually weaken support for the judicial overhaul, since Golan is one of the most ardent supporters of Justice Minister Yariv Levin’s efforts to pass the legislation, and she would have to resign from the parliament in order to assume her new post. Netanyahu might want this because he now finds himself in need of balancing his act, as polls show markedly reduced support for the Likud following the massive protests against the new legislation attempts. Netanyahu may thus be attempting to slow down the overhaul, or attempting a kind of “overhaul-lite,” so to speak. Golan might be too fast and furious for that kind of approach.
Likud issued a statement (in response to the news on Israeli Channel 12) claiming that the appointment was simply due to Golan’s “excellent hasbara skills in English,” and that there is “no connection to the minister Levin.”

Widening gulf between Israel and American Jews​

Golan has also been a vociferous opponent of pluralism, even regarding Jewish worship. Last year, she disparaged Naftali Bennett’s so-called “government of change” for “promoting initiatives” that would provide more worshiping rights for Reform Jews at the Western Wall. She called those who give in to such pressures will become “puppets of the Islamist movement and the de facto Prime Minister Mansour Abbas” (Abbas’s United Arab List was a member of the former government with four seats).
This kind of fundamentalist ideology does not sit well with American Jews, who mainly belong to more progressive streams of Judaism than the Orthodox stream that dominates Israel today — in the U.S., about 35% of all Jews are Reform, 18% are Conservative (milder than Orthodox), and only 10% are Orthodox, according to the Pew Research Center.
Golan’s attacks on non-Orthodox streams of Judaism (even though she considers herself not religious) are part of the reason why the head of the Union for Reform Judaism, Rabbi Rick Jacobs, said:
“We need a thoughtful, diplomatic, morally credible new consul general in NY. May Golan is none of those. Her brand of Zionism is antithetical to the majority of our community. She will harm, not help Israel’s cause.”
In other words, this will distance American Jews further from Israel.
Rabbi Jill Jakobs of T’ruah is also warning of this widening gulf:
“Netanyahu’s anti-democracy, pro-occupation agenda is already alienating both the American government and American Jews, and sending Golan to represent Israel will only widen that gulf.”
Golan herself has tried to be reassuring:
“I want to assure everyone that if I will be appointed, I will represent 100% the mainstream policies of PM Netanyahu and the Likud party to which I belong.”
She also tried to assure all American Jews that they would not be alienated:
“I am completely committed to the unity of the Jewish people, and that is the exact policy that I will follow,” she tweeted. “If appointed, I will work with the leaders of all the Jewish organizations — as part of the effort to strengthen the great partnership between Israel and the American Jewish communities.”
We will see whether Golan’s “excellent hasbara skills” in English will make her a success for Jewish unity in the U.S. or whether it will only widen the gulf. Alternatively, maybe Golan will just be making hasbara more difficult for “progressive” Israel apologists, who still seek to portray Israel as a democracy and the occupation as temporary. Maybe the proud racist will show the true face of Israel, which many have been wary of admitting.

For The New York Times, not all Americans killed in Palestine are equal​

When a foreign government and its citizens kill American nationals, it usually raises media outrage in the U.S. But, Israel’s recent spate of violence against Americans, including the killing of Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi, has barely received coverage.

By Lara-Nour Walton September 9, 2024 8

26-year-old American, Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi, had arrived in Palestine just three days before Israeli forces shot her in the head. At the time of her September 6 death, she was peacefully protesting illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank village of Beita. The murder was business as usual.
Israel has a history of killing American citizens in cold blood; at the turn of the millennia, there was a steady trickle of killings every few years. In 2003, an IDF soldier operating a Caterpillar D9 bulldozer repeatedly ran over Rachel Corrie, a U.S. citizen who was attempting to block the demolition of a Palestinian home. She was crushed to death.
Then, in 2010, 19-year-old Furkan Doğan fell victim to Israeli fire aboard a ship in international waters. The American national was attempting to deliver humanitarian aid to a besieged Gaza Strip.

Watch In Bad Faith, a new satirical video from Mondoweiss and Mohammed El-Kurd.
It was 2016 when Mahmoud Shaalan, wearing a North Face hoodie and blue jeans, set out to pay his aunt a visit. He never made it—an Israeli soldier fatally shot the Florida teenager at a West Bank checkpoint.
2022 was a lethal year—ushered in by the brutal arrest and subsequent death of dual Palestinian-American man Omar Abdulmajeed Asaad. The Palestinian Health Ministry said that the 80-year-old Asaad, who had been caught in an Israeli arrest operation in his hometown, suffered from a heart attack “caused most likely from the beating and aggravated by the long detention and then abandoning him handcuffed for several hours in a building…on a very cold night.”
Then, of course, there was Shireen Abu Akleh in 2022. The American Al Jazeera journalist was wearing a clearly labeled press vest when an IDF marksman assassinated her.
But, as Israel continues waging its war on Gaza, which has now claimed the lives of at least 40,000 Palestinians, that steady trickle of U.S.-citizen killings has suddenly become a cascade. Eygi’s death was preceded by the murders of two 17-year-old Americans Mohammad Khdour and Tawfic Abdel Jabbar, and World Central Kitchen worker Jacob Flickinger. In August, American school teacher Amado Sison was shot and injured at the same weekly anti-settlement protest that Eygi was murdered at.
When a foreign government and its citizens are caught murdering American nationals one after the other, it is reasonable to assume that this pattern would engender at least a modicum of U.S. media outrage. But, Israel’s recent spate of violence against Americans has received thin coverage.
The New York Times has not published a single story acknowledging Khdour or Sison, while Flickinger’s name was mentioned in six articles and Jabbar’s in two. By comparison, Hersh Goldberg-Polin’s name appeared in 26 articles in the first week since his killing in Gaza.
By September 6, the supposed newspaper of record, The New York Times, had not published a single story acknowledging Khdour or Sison. Combined, Jabbar and Flickinger’s names were mentioned in eight articles—Jabbar’s in two, Flickinger’s in six.
By comparison, the Hamas killing of the American hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin garnered far more media attention. On September 6, Goldberg-Polin’s name had already appeared in 26 New York Times articles and newsletters since his September 1 execution.
While the under-reporting of Palestinian death is a trend that has long blighted the New York Times and corporate news media more generally, it now appears that the mere act of aligning oneself with the Palestinian cause saps one’s murder of newsworthiness—even if the victims of Israeli state violence are American.
It now appears that the mere act of aligning oneself with the Palestinian cause saps one’s murder of newsworthiness.
In its scant reporting of the murders preceding Eygi’s, The New York Times neglected to evoke, even once, Israel’s well-established history of assassinating American nationals. Without including that vital context, how could a newsreader possibly grasp the scope of this phenomenon?
In the wake of Eygi’s murder, The New York Times’ reporting did not improve. On September 6, the paper ran “American Woman Shot and Killed at West Bank Protest.” Evidently, The Times did not think it newsworthy enough to include Israel’s responsibility for the murder in the headline. In fact, a reader would have to get through three paragraphs before finding unambiguous phrasing suggesting Israeli military culpability. They would have to venture even further down—past Anthony Blinken’s quotes about the importance of “gathering facts” before jumping to conclusions—to find a damning eyewitness account of the murder.
Later in the day, the Times published “Aysenur Eygi, the American activist killed in the West Bank, had been a campus organizer,” still refusing to pin blame on Israeli fire in the title.
The New York Times’ exculpatory approach to reporting this tragedy is not unique. Other mainstream American outlets have similarly skirted around the perpetrator—keeping the word “Israel” far away from the headlines:
  • American activist fatally shot in head in the West Bank (ABC, 9/6/24)
  • American citizen killed in West Bank anti-settler protest (USA Today, 9/6/24)
  • American activist shot dead in occupied West Bank (Politico, 9/6/24)
  • American woman, 26, dies after getting shot in the head in West Bank (New York Post, 9/6/24)
However, given its reach and national reputation for trustworthiness, it is gravest when The New York Times fails in its duty to employ elucidatory language. This is especially true when, in the face of Israeli violence towards Americans, the U.S. government extends carte blanche time and time again. Because, if the fourth estate, the ostensible watchdog of American government, cannot even hold Israel to account, then who will?

ed note–keep in mind a few minor details here…

This is not ‘Khazar’ Judah-ism. It is not ‘Talmudic’ Judah-ism. It is not ‘Zionist’ Judah-ism. As the story makes plainly clear for those with eyes to see and brains to cogitate and discern, this is the Judah-ism of the Torah and of the Old Testament…It is the Judah-ism of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, Solomon, Esther, etc, etc, etc…It is the Judah-ism that rejected Jesus Christ, hunted down His apostles and subjected them to prison, torture, and death…It is the Judah-ism that acted as the electrical current fueling the Bolshevik revolution, WWI, WWII, etc. It is the Judah-ism that runs Hollywood, the porn business, abortion on demand, the banking system in the West, etc. It is the Judah-ism that animates ‘good Jews’ like those at Neturei Karta, Jewish Voice for Peace, J-Street, and all those other groups whose job is to keep Gentiles confused about what the nature of the problem truly is. It is the Judah-ism worshiped by certain backwards sects within Christianity, including Christian Zionism and Christian Identity. It is the Judah-ism that destroyed Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen, and if it gets its way, will see the entire world hacked to pieces in exactly the same way that these poor kids were murdered, because as far as Judah-ism is concerned, the term ‘Amalekite’ is a one-size-fits-all designation that can be/is used whenever someone else’s existence has been deemed a threat to the greater good of Judea, Inc.

In short, Judah-ism, from root to stem, is a sickly, diseased tree that has never produced any fruit, exactly as Jesus Christ charged. It is a mental illness all its own that infects and destroys all living things in its environs, and the only substantive difference between what this father did in hacking his family to pieces vs what the IDF, Hagganah, Stern Gang, etc have done/do on a regular basis is that he did it in a ‘hands on’ manner rather than with the sexy, sophisticated use of high-tech weaponry.

Times of Israel

A man was charged Thursday with murdering his wife and two young children along with a neighbor’s child and attempting to murder another child, after being judged fit to stand trial.

Nadav Sela, 28, was accused in the Nazareth District Court of stabbing to death his wife, Dor Crasanti-Sela, 23; sons Yosef, just under 2, and Binyamin, 8 months; and neighbor Nachman Atia, 11, in the family’s home in the northern town of Migdal outside of Tiberias on Saturday, January 28.

Nachman’s brother Natan, 10, was knifed in the face, neck and hands but managed to survive by playing dead and later escaping out of a ground-floor window. Nahman and Natan had been invited over for a Shabbat meal.

According to the charge sheet, Sela did not stop the stabbing even as the victims begged to be spared and did not leave the house until he was sure that he had killed everyone.

While Sela was changing his clothes Natan Atia managed to jump out of a bedroom window and run for help. Dor’s father, Eitan Crasanti, arrived at the house, saw through an open window what had happened, and called the police.

A mobile police unit arrested Sela shortly after the killings at a nearby grove of olive trees. He confessed, the charge sheet read, and just mumbled the words “They’re Amalekites, they’re Amalekites.”

In biblical Jewish tradition, the nomadic Amalekite tribe came to be viewed as the essence of evil.

Of the 613 commandments followed by Orthodox Jews, one — based on 1 Samuel 15.3 — orders the destruction of Amalekites and says, “Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.’

No traces of alcohol or drugs were found in Sela’s blood. During questioning, he just repeated, “I murdered everyone at home because they were Amalekites.”

Ofer Osta, head of the Israel Police northern district’s homicide unit, revealed that after questioning dozens of family acquaintances as well as rabbis with whom Sela had studied, in an attempt to discover the motive for the crime, “We found a piece of correspondence in one of his religious books that said something about the Amalekites. There’s a verse like that in the book he was reading but he didn’t know how to explain it or to quote any spiritual authority.”

Psychologists ruled that Sela was fit to stand trial after observing him for more than two weeks at a psychiatric medical center. During a previous remand hearing, he had said he was “a cat” and that he had slept with other women.

Osta said, “I sat opposite him [Sela] for 19 hours and the man was under the microscope. He behaves in a normative way.”

“We checked the whole family background,” Osta went on. “Dor, the mother, was pure and always did want he wanted and protected his dignity, raised the children and broadcast to the outside world that everything was okay. Her parents were the ones who helped them financially.”

Osta said, “This was one of the most difficult crime scenes that I’ve witnessed in my long service with the Israel Police.”

The court heard that during the days before the murder, Sela had contacted individuals in town to apologize for various things.

That cohered with statements by Dor’s mother, Ravit Crasanti immediately after the killings, in which she said she was certain that her son-in-law had planned his actions in advance.

“He went and said goodbye to everyone,” she said. “On Friday night he sat with me at the table and asked for forgiveness. He said, ‘I’m sorry if I hurt you, I’m sorry if I said anything bad about you.’ He did the same to other people in the community,” she said. “He took his leave of them.”

Shortly before the court hearing, Crasanti burst into the hall carrying pictures of her daughter and her dead grandsons and repeatedly called on Sela to look at them. “You low-life murderer! Just look what you took from us!”

“It was important to me that he sees the faces of the children, that he understand what he took, the happiness of the family. Since then, there’s no happiness. He’s taken the life from us,” she said.
