Zionists Want to Make You an Antisemite: Don’t Let Them!
I have often told my students that if they want a career in journalism there are certain ‘truths‘ they should not question in public such as the Warren Commission Report, or the official version of what happened on 9/11, or Israel’s right to exist. Here is yet another nail in my professional coffin.
The Zionists would have you believe that Israel represents all Jews and that therefore, in light of Gaza, all Jews appear to be racist, genocidal, sociopaths. They try to convince you that any criticism or rejection of Israel is antisemitism. They paint themselves as the victims of discrimination when they are the perpetrators of atrocities.
In reality, millions of Jews, especially in the UK and USA, probably the majority, are horrified by Israel’s crimes against humanity, war crimes, and state terrorism.

“Many of us like to ask ourselves, ‘What would I do if I was alive during slavery? Or the Jim Crow South? Or apartheid? What would I do if my country was committing genocide?’ The answer is, you’re doing it. Right now.“
Aaron Bushnell.
The 25-year-old Air Force serviceman’s self immolation in front of the Israeli embassy, Feb. 25, 2024, marked many.
The accusation of antisemitism is the fig leaf Zionists hide behind to shut down opposition. Many people, when faced with the apparent choice of being an antisemite or a decent human being, feel obliged to choose the latter. They fall right into the trap laid by pro-Israelis.
This false equivalence is reinforced by the media and political world which is also largely controlled by, or heavily influenced by, The Israel Lobby. 1
Side with the ‘Wrong Kind Of Jew’
There are many of ‘the wrong kind of Jew’ out there who also oppose Israel. Some of the biggest demonstrations in the US against Israel’s “barbarism” have been by Jews, including the occupation of the Capitol grand hall.
It is not antisemitic to oppose genocide.
It is not antisemitic to oppose Apartheid.
It is not antisemitic to oppose brutal, colonial, expropriation.
It is not antisemitic to oppose a racist ideology of ethno-religious supremacy.
The Zionist project from the outset was one of brutal colonization and ethnic cleansing. It is worth quoting Professor John Mearsheimer of the U. of Chicago at length when asked the question:
The Zionists understood from the very beginning that you had to cleanse...They knew exactly what they were doing, and they understood that they would have to do horrible things to the Palestinians in order to create a Jewish state.
Professor John Mearsheimer
Israel’s first act was to displace hundreds of thousands from their ancestral homes and massacre thousands of others in what is known as The Nakba. This followed years of Zionist terrorist activity in the British Mandate.
This didn’t begin on October 7th
The facts are well-known but they have to be restated:
Tens of thousands of Palestinians have been taken hostage, held in Israeli prisons, sometimes for years, without trial or charges, often tortured and raped. In April 2022, there were 4,450 Palestinian security prisoners in Israeli prisons – including 160 children, 32 women, and over 1,000 “administrative detainees” (indefinitely incarcerated without charge).
80% of post-1948 Palestinian lands have been stolen and illegally occupied by Israel.
They tell us Israel “has a right to defend itself” when international law clearly states the occupier has no right to self-defense against the occupied. To say Israel has the right to defend itself is like saying the rapist or abuser has a right to defend himself because the victim hit him. Article 51 of the UN Charter is not applicable to the Occupier.
As Norman Finkelstein points out, “Israel cannot pretend to a right of self-defense if the exercise of this right traces back to the wrong of an illegal occupation/denial of self-determination (ex injuria non oritur jus [No legal benefit or right can be derived from an illegal act]).” National Palestinian rights are paramount and protected by law.
Not a Liberal Democracy
It is a myth that Israel is a liberal democracy, or that it ever has been. At best, it may have been a self-styled Athenian Democracy which was an absolute dictatorship over the indigenous peoples of the region and no more democratic than was Apartheid South Africa.
Israel’s attacks on all its neighbors, its targeted assassinations in other countries, its lawless killings of noncombatants, and other internationally recognized crimes, are clear cases of state sponsored terrorism. Yet, they would have you believe that the Palestinians, or Lebanese, or Syrians, or Tunisians, or others who have been attacked and massacred, are the terrorists.
Millions of Jews around the world see this. They understand that it has been October 7, 2023, for the Palestinians since 1948. 2
How could Europe and the US impose a colonial state on the indigenous people without consulting them in a bid to cleanse their conscience for the NAZI genocide of Jews in Europe? It was a recipe for disaster.3
Qui Tacet Consentire
The fact that opinion polls show most Israelis support the crimes of Israel should not tar the image of all Jews, not even most of them. Israelis are proving to be ‘Good Germans’ as a whole and one day they will have to answer for their crimes. Israel’s mask has fallen and its true nature exposed for the world to see — the king is naked and the Zionists, and those they hold sway over in the US and Europe, are the only ones who don’t feel the cold breeze blowing between their legs.
The Zionists say Jews need Israel because it is “the only place they can be safe ” and escape discrimination. This is another lie, like so many falsehoods they have told: e.g. no 40 beheaded babies, nor babies in ovens, no evidence of mass rape on Oct. 7, many Israeli civilians were killed by the IDF in the counter attack, and so on. As each lie is exposed, the Israelis tell more and the western press repeats it as verified fact.
Jews are not discriminated against in Europe, the UK or the USA. Jews have been very successful and are represented in positions of influence and power well beyond their numbers in society. The French demographer, Emanuel Todd, points out in his latest book, La Défaite de l’Occident, that a full third of President Biden’s cabinet have Israeli citizenship.4
No, our countries are not antisemitic just because there are antisemites in them. Yes, antisemitic attacks have increased since October 7 because many people have believed the Zionist lie that Israel equals all Jews. In catering to the ‘Israel Lobbies,’ our western countries have become accomplices to Israel’s war crimes and crimes against humanity, not only by supporting Israel internationally, but also by giving them the means to murder. Our government leaders will also need to be held accountable.
The Zionists are doing everything they can to create antisemitism to ensure support for their Apartheid state and the ongoing genocide. It seems inconceivable to me that such an entity can survive. The pressures for the creation of an inclusive, pluralist, and egalitarian society in place of Israel are too great.
By siding with “the wrong kind of Jew” against Israel, you will hasten the liberation of the Palestinian people and peace in the Middle East.

Stalin failed to see that British Imperialism was crippled coming out of World War Two and was no longer the major threat to Soviet hegemony over eastern Europe. The Soviets believed the creation of Israel in place of the Palestine Mandate was a way of weakening the perceived British threat. The Soviets also failed to grasp the real nature of Zionism. Thus the Soviet Union and its eastern European satellites voted in favor of the creation of Israel. ↩︎

6 There has been a great confusion in Europe concerning what Israel is, and is doing, and the question of Muslim immigrants and their off-spring in western countries. This makes the debate over Israel even more murky and difficult to untangle and should be the subject of a separate paper. The Zionists are siding with Europeans hostile to immigration, which many are also calling “a Muslim colonization of Europe,” in order to build support for the Zionist colonization and ethnic cleansing of the Middle East.
