Thank you for connecting the knots of history - it is so important to understand the present situation. I would like to recommend a book that describes and explains the concept of colonialism and imperialism in great detail and with excellent documentation of the historical events and lasting effects in Ireland, India, South Africa, Jamaica, Palestine, Kenya, etc. "The Legacy of Violence: A History of the British Empire" by Caroline Elkins (2022)

I recommend "Lobbying for Zionism on Both Sides of the Atlantic" by Ilan Pappe, "Disappearing Palestine" by Jonathan Cook, and "The Hundred Years' War on Palestine" by Rashid Khalidi. For a start.

Excellent! Thanks for filling in lots of blanks in my knowledge and showing connections.

I know of a number of analysts whose output would profit from reading your essay.

Well said, especially this:

"The Nazis wanted to colonize Eastern Europe to have "Lebensraum" (living space), and tried to kill and ethnically cleanse the region's inhabitants to steal their land; just like Zionists want to colonize historic Palestine and other parts of West Asia to expand the “living space” of their own supremacist ethnostate, by killing and ethnically cleansing the indigenous inhabitants to steal their land."

"Zionism is colonialism, which is why it is no surprise at all that the Western imperial powers continue to back Israel so strongly. They do not need an Israel lobby to convince them to support colonialism; this is what imperial powers do."

These kinds essays must spill out into msm. We need to educate the general population.

I spend most of my time sharing this type of historical information as widely as I can. I regard it as my duty.

Terrific clear view of the history of Zionism.

To shine the sun through this fog of War is precious.

You should read Ilan Pappe and other authors who write about this history. The information is out there. Seek it.

The BRICS+ meeting in Kazan and the coming US Elections, both within 3 weeks, will change the Geopolitical narrative dramatically.

This well-written and informative piece is helpful in understanding why the actions in Kazan and DC will be taken.

It is amazing how Jewish and non Jewish Zionists deny the history, origins and true intentions of Zionism.

They continue to scream antisemitism when presented with the facts.

Many U.S. observers adhere to John Mearsheimer's analysis that AIPAC controls the U.S. empire in West Asia. This is a misunderstanding not only of the relationship between Israel and the U.S., but also of the structure of the U.S. imperial state.

Aaron Goode laid out the organization of the tripartite U.S. state -- security state, political (visible, elected, the part that is owned by AIPAC) state, and the overworld, which consists of Wall Street, big finance, and giant, especially transnational, corporations) in his book "American Exception".

Given this structure, is it not hard to understand that the U.S. security state does not require AIPAC to register under FARA because Israel owning the U.S. political state furthers the interests of the U.S., security state and the U.S.-centered imperial overworld.

Netanjahu hatte in den 1970er Jahren gesagt: „Wenn wir es richtig machen, haben wir im nächsten Krieg die Chance, alle Araber zu vertreiben …Wir können das Westjordanland übernehmen. Wir können die Westbank räumen und Jerusalem säubern“.

Just wondering, in your ‘genocidal league table’, where does a country that proposes the entire genocide of Israel sit? Above or below Israel?

And maybe while we’re on the subject of non-tolerance of other religions, where would a caliphatic !state’ sit in your league?

Btw. I’m not speaking as a Jew, or a Muslim. Obviously.

"Israel" is a genocidal state. And all other countries are OBLIGED to take up arms to stop it.

Not my judgement. The ICJ's judgment said that.

Can you answer my original question?

Expand full comment

"Israel" is COMMITTING genocide, it's not under threat of it.

Jews in Europe in 1944 were under threat of genocide...by Olav Schøltz and Bærbock's grandfathers.

But now it's not 1944. And the situation is now not about jews in WW II era Germany. Rather the situation is about the current day terrorist colonial state of "Israel" in the Middle East.

Its 2024 now, and the colonial terrorist regime of "Israel" has ben declared by the ICJ to be illegally occupying the palestinians, perpetrating apartheid and committing genocide, and the same ICJ says that every country in the world that subscribes to the Geneva Convention, has an OBLIGATION to help the Palestinians stop the terrorist Israeli regime from doing those three things, as they are crimes against humanity.

https://icj-cij.org/sites/default/files/case-related/186/186-20240719-adv-01-00-en.pdf

"...279. Moreover, the Court considers that, in view of the character and importance of the rights and obligations involved, all States are under an obligation not to recognize as legal the situation arising from the unlawful presence of Israel in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. They are also under an obligation not to render aid or assistance in maintaining the situation created by Israel’s illegal presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. It is for all States, while respecting the Charter of the United Nations and international law, to ensure that any impediment resulting from the illegal presence of Israel in the Occupied Palestinian Territory to the exercise of the Palestinian people of its right to self-determination is brought to an end. In addition, all the States parties to the Fourth Geneva Convention have the obligation, while respecting the Charter of the United Nations and international law, to ensure compliance by Israel with international humanitarian law as embodied in that Convention...."

Show us the text of a "nation" that "proposes the entire genocide of Israel." You see, "Israel" is supposedly a democracy and supposedly allows non-Jews to exist equally and in peace, with satisfaction that justice and the rule of law applies to all, inclusive of non-Jews. Further, "genocide" is what colonizers do to the colonized, not the other way around. When a put-upon resistance group speaks of taking back their nation "from the river to the sea" - after decades of peaceful attempts to co-exist despite violence being visited upon them and their property and land stolen - they are not talking about genocide. But when the colonizer continually refuses to negotiate in good faith - because the goal of a colonizer is total control no matter what they say out of the other side of their mouth - eventually the resistance will take on more radical ideas. And guess what: It's every occupied people's RIGHT to resist, including through violent means.

Your disingenuous question is akin to asking the Jewish prisoners in concentration camps in Nazi Germany and the European countries in which other camps were operated to please stop "proposing the genocide" of their captors and occupiers - the Nazis. Would it be so far out of bounds to think that maybe some, if not many, of the prisoners in those camps would want to see the Nazis "genocided" or just forced from power and brought to justice for their crimes? Were Jewish, Polish, Slavic and other prisoners in the camps right or wrong to consider (and employ) violence to free themselves from their occupiers?

Jews existed before the state of Israel. The destruction of Israel state is not a call for genocide of Jews.

However if you want to take that conflating stance then Zionists denying the existence of Palestine and the right of a Palestinian state is a call by Zionists for genocide.

1. Before commenting, FIRST READ THE ARTICLE. (The article is excellent, you won't regret it.)

2. Which country is proposing "the entire genocide of Israel"? (Where did you get this information? I cannot find it anywhere, let alone in this article...)

3. As for religious tolerance, listen to this interview with Myriam Charabaty, who is Lebanese Christian: https://beeley.substack.com/p/supporting-the-resistance-is-a-duty, and you'll get the answer. (In short, different religions CAN AND DO coexist peacefully, West Asia is the best example of that.)

4. Have you ever heard who created and financed Muslim Brotherhood, Al Kaida, ISIS, and other radical terrorist groups all over Muslim world? (Hint: It was not Muslims or Arabs or Iranians. If you are curious, you can, for example, check this interview with the founder of Jihadist movement in Egypt and a former top Al-Qaeda commander Sheikh Nabeel Naiem - he tells openly where his organization got the money from: https://syrianews.cc/isis-the-bombshell-interview-to-impeach-obama/)

Here a more in depth unconventional analysis of the situation.

By the way, including the Egyptians and foreigner living there there, the number was close to 3 million people in Gaza till October the seventh 2023.

Ho and israel, has already sunken in the blood which is has spilled.

The article screams Holocaust denialism

About the only thing I'll say about the alleged gas chambers used by the Nazis is that to this date, no sufficient technical explanation has emerged to demonstrate the exact operation and how the deadly gases were kept confined to the chambers, thus why many Nazi camp operators weren't killed by their own airborne poisons. I'll gladly consider such evidence if it exists, but my understanding is that far more Jews (and others) were killed by firing squads than in gas chambers. Perhaps the gas chamber operators donned gas masks, which is technically feasible, but the chambers themselves were nowhere near sufficiently sealed to safely (for the operators or surrounding villages) murder so many people through the use of concentrated poison gas.

Here is your answer: Get a long tube and connect it to the exhaust of your car, leave car window open to get the tube from exhaust into your car. Then sit in the car and start it. Hint: Although car window is opened, you will finally die of gas poisoning, so you better don't try it.

The main flaw of your logic: You cannot explain how you get dead bodies of people who come, get separated from others and go to "bathrooms" - and they didn't get out of those "bathrooms" alive. Second flaw, you skipped the reason for typhus outbreaks - malnutrition. Malnutrition happened to those who were separated to the second row which was sent to live in baracks (i.e. Nazis found them strong enough for forced work).

THEY BOTH DIED!!! AND THE NUMBERS WERE MASSIVE!!! And you are trying to prove that people weren't killed by Zyklon-B in death camps??? What purpose did Zyklon-B serve then??? We know who was producing it (IG Farben, a company which was later rebranded as Bayer), and we know where its tin cans were found (in death camps with furnaces - in Auschwitz, Nazis tried to hide the furnaces by destroying them, but one was left when Soviets liberated Auschwitz!), and we know how the "work" of burning corpses was organized (prisoners who worked on this "post" got better rations, in the end the group was eliminated too, and the next group was sent to this post, etc.)! And there are plenty testimonies how people were going to "bathrooms" from which no one got out alive! READ AND YOU WILL FIND PROOF! There is plenty of documentation! With photos and also documents, because Nazis meticulously recorded everything they did. Not everything was burnt at the end of war.
