When Jewish extremists, fanatic Zionists, religious zealots, ultranationalists and crypto-fascists in the apartheid state of Israel say they want to wipe Gaza off the face of the earth, believe them.

Bad Moon Rising – by Mr. Fish
I covered the birth of Jewish fascism in Israel. I reported on the extremist Meir Kahane, who was barred from running for office and whose Kach Party was outlawed in 1994 and declared a terrorist organization by Israel and the United States. I attended political rallies held by Benjamin Netanyahu, who received lavish funding from rightwing Americans, when he ran against Yitzhak Rabin, who was negotiating a peace settlement with the Palestinians. Netanyahu’s supporters chanted “Death to Rabin.” They burned an effigy of Rabin dressed in a Nazi uniform. Netanyahu marched in front of a mock funeral for Rabin.
Prime Minister Rabin was assassinated on Nov. 4, 1995 by a Jewish fanatic. Rabin’s widow, Lehea, blamed Netanyahu and his supporters for her husband’s murder.
Netanyahu, who first became prime minister in 1996, has spent his political career nurturing Jewish extremists, including Avigdor Lieberman, Gideon Sa’ar, Naftali Bennett, and Ayelet Shaked. His father, Benzion — who worked as an assistant to the Zionist pioneer Vladimir Jabotinsky, who Benito Mussolini referred to as “a good fascist” — was a leader in the Herut Party that called on the Jewish state to seize all the land of historic Palestine. Many of those who formed the Herut Party carried out terrorist attacks during the 1948 war that established the state of Israel. Albert Einstein, Hannah Arendt, Sidney Hook and other Jewish intellectuals, described the Herut Party in a statement published in The New York Times as a “political party closely akin in its organization, methods, political philosophy and social appeal to Nazi and Fascist parties.”
There has always been a strain of Jewish fascism within the Zionist project. Now it has taken control of the Israeli state.
“The left is no longer capable of overcoming the toxic ultra-nationalism that has evolved here,” Zeev Sternhell, a Holocaust survivor and Israel’s foremost authority on fascism, warned in 2018, “the kind whose European strain almost wiped out a majority of the Jewish people.” Sternhell added, “[W]e see not just a growing Israeli fascism but racism akin to Nazism in its early stages.”
The decision to obliterate Gaza has long been the dream of Israel’s crypto-fascists, heirs of Kahane’s movement. These Jewish extremists, which make up the ruling coaltion government, are orchestrating the genocide in Gaza, where hundreds of Palestinians are dying daily. They champion the iconography and language of their homegrown fascism. Jewish identity and Jewish nationalism are the Zionist versions of blood and soil. Jewish supremacy is sanctified by God, as is the slaughter of the Palestinians, who Netanyahu compared to the Biblical Ammonites, massacred by the Israelites. Enemies — usually Muslims — slated for extinction are subhuman who embody evil. Violence and the threat of violence are the only forms of communication those outside the magical circle of Jewish nationalism understand. Millions of Muslims and Christians, including those with Israeli citizenship, are to be purged.
A leaked 10-page document from the Israeli Ministry of Intelligence dated Oct. 13, 2023 recommends the forcible and permanent transfer of the Gaza Strip’s 2.3 million Palestinian residents to Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.
It is a grave mistake not to take the blood curdling calls for the wholesale eradication and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians seriously. This rhetoric is not hyperbolic. It is a literal prescription. Netanyahu in a tweet, later removed, described the battle with Hamas as a “struggle between the children of light and the children of darkness, between humanity and the law of the jungle.”
These Jewish fanatics have begun their version of the final solution to the Palestinian problem. They dropped 12,000 tons of explosives on Gaza in the first two weeks of assault to obliterate at least 45 percent of Gaza’s housing units, according to the U.N.’s humanitarian office. They have no intention of being detoured, even by Washington.
“It became evident to U.S. officials that Israeli leaders believed mass civilian casualties were an acceptable price in the military campaign,” The New York Times reported.
“In private conversations with American counterparts, Israeli officials referred to how the United States and other allied powers resorted to devastating bombings in Germany and Japan during World War II — including the dropping of the two atomic warheads in Hiroshima and Nagasaki — to try to defeat those countries,” the paper continued.
The goal is a “pure” Israel, cleansed of Palestinian contaminants. Gaza is to become a wasteland. The Palestinians in Gaza will be killed or forced into refugee camps over the border in Egypt. Messianic redemption will take place once the Palestinians are expelled. Jewish extremists call for the Al-Aqsa mosque – the third holiest shrine for Muslims, built on the ruins of the Jewish Second Temple, which was destroyed in 70 CE by the Roman army – to be demolished. The mosque is to be replaced by a “Third” Jewish temple, a move that would set the Muslim world alight. The West Bank, which the zealots call “Judea and Samaria,” will be formally annexed by Israel. Israel, governed by the religious laws imposed by the ultra-orthodox Shas and United Torah Judaism parties, will be a Jewish version of Iran.
It is a short step to total Israeli control over Palestinian land. Israel’s illegal Jewish settlements, restricted military zones, closed highways and army compounds have seized over 60 percent of the West Bank, turning Palestinian towns and villages into ringed ghettos. There are over 65 laws which discriminate directly or indirectly against Palestinian citizens of Israel and those living in the occupied territories. The campaign of indiscriminate killing of Palestinians in the West Bank, many by rogue Jewish militias, along with house and school demolitions and the seizure of remaining Palestinian land will explode. Over 133 Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank by the Israeli army and Jewish settlers since the Oct. 7 incursion by Hamas and thousands of Palestinians have been rounded up by the Israeli military, beaten, humiliated and imprisoned.
Israel, at the same time, is turning on “Jewish traitors” who refuse to embrace the demented vision of the ruling Jewish fascists and who denounce the horrific violence of the state. The familiar enemies of fascism — journalists, human rights advocates, intellectuals, artists, feminists, liberals, the left, homosexuals and pacifists — are already being targeted. The judiciary, according to plans put forward by Netanyahu, will be neutered. Public debate will wither. Civil society and the rule of law will cease to exist. Those branded as “disloyal” will be deported.
Fascists do not respect the sanctity of life. Human beings, even from their own tribe, are expendable to build their deranged utopia. The zealots in power in Israel could have exchanged the hostages held by Hamas for the thousands of Palestinian hostages held in Israeli prisons, which is why the Israeli hostages were seized. And there is evidence that in the chaotic fighting that took place once Hamas militants entered Israel, the Israeli military decided to target not only Hamas fighters, but the Israeli captives with them.
“Several new testimonies by Israeli witnesses to the October 7 Hamas surprise attack on southern Israel adds to growing evidence that the Israeli military killed its own citizens as they fought to neutralize Palestinian gunmen,” Max Blumenthal writes in The Grayzone.
Tuval Escapa, a member of the security team for Kibbutz Be’eri, Blumenthal notes, set up a hotline to coordinate between kibbutz residents and the Israeli army.
Escapa told the Israeli newspaper Haaretz that as desperation began to set in, “the commanders in the field made difficult decisions – including shelling houses on their occupants in order to eliminate the terrorists along with the hostages.”
The newspaper reported that Israeli commanders were “compelled to request an aerial strike” against its own facility inside the Erez Crossing to Gaza “in order to repulse the terrorists” who had seized control. That base housed Israeli Civil Administration officers and soldiers.
Israel, in 1986, instituted a military policy called the Hannibal Directive, apparently named for the Carthaginian general who poisoned himself rather than be captured by the Romans, following the capture of two Israeli soldiers by Hezbollah. The directive is designed to prevent Israeli troops from falling into enemy hands through the maximum use of force, even at the cost of killing the captured soldiers and civilians.
The directive was executed during the 2014 Israeli assault on Gaza known as Operation Protective Edge. Hamas fighters on Aug. 1, 2014 captured an Israeli officer, Lt. Hadar Goldin. In response, Israel dropped more than 2,000 bombs, missiles and shells on the area where he was being held. Goldin was killed along with over 100 Palestinian civilians. The directive was supposedly rescinded in 2016.
Gaza is the start. The West Bank is next.
Israelis who cheer on the Palestinian nightmare will soon endure a nightmare of their own.

I find it interesting that no mention of the Balfour Agreement signed in 1947 by the United Kingdom stealing Palestine and giving it to the Zionist as a fake homeland for the supposed “Hebrews” of the old testament. Because the Zionist succeeded in getting the US into two wars their payment was their “biblical homeland”. First and foremost, DNA testing of 2 Israelis Scientists showed that they were Ashkenazi who ancestors came from Kharzia (now the Ukraine). They were shocked that they were not Hebrew meaning their genetics did not come from Abraham, Issac and Jacob and from the House of David. They are basically converts to Jewdeism from way back in around 1500 AD. I watched a video by a reporter interviewing Netanyahou around 2016 being confronted with this info. His reply was, “Well, they can return to their homeland anytime and we will call it Israel Two. That is the Ukraine former Khazaria.
Next comment is the Biblical Hebrews were told by their God that because they had disobeyed him they were to roam the world and never have a homeland. When growing up in the 50’s we had neighbors from Russia who where Jews and when asked why they did not want to go to their new homeland they said to my mother they were never to have a homeland of their own. Their reason was the one given above. Their Ashkenazi background means they are Turk/Mogul. Unless they can prove they are descended from the Biblical Hebrews I do not know how they can be Semite. They can claim their are the lost tribe which if that is the case they should still have the genetic lineage in the DNA. What is going on is a genocide of the indigenous people of Palestine. The Balfour agreement stated the Zionist were not to take anymore land than that spelled out in the agreement, they were to live in peace with the indigenous people. Neither stipulation has been upheld since the takeover. The Israeli people need to be concerned as I can bet they will be next on the genocide list.
Fair retribution Eloise, for a group of people that their own history as shown in the bible and Torah, were directed by their leaders in those rare occasions where they took an enemy city or village, to kill every living creature human and animal literally, and so it happened.
That savage instinct is alive and well, even for people who are not related to the Jewish population of biblical times. That is neither important or necessary, since Zionist ideology replaces their racial identity. Dr. Shlomo Sand Prof. at Tel Aviv University, proves this fact scientifically in his book ‘The invention of the Jewish people’. Consequently for all practical purposes every so called Jew residing in Israel, has to be taken as his word and face the music when their time of reckoning come around .
Eloise your assessment is mostly correct from what I’ve studied. My research found that the khazars were kicked out of turkey in early AD later declaring themselves as Jews around 600AD. General Patton during the aftermath of WWII found them to be so distasteful that he said he’d been fighting the wrong people. The white supremist khazars were kicked out of several different countries always saying that they we’re “victims”. Victomhood has been their mantra for hundreds of years and no matter what is said about or to them their favorite phrase is that the sayer is “anti-Semitic” even though they are not Semitic. The numbers of them that died in WWII, according to many historians is about 250,000 and certainly not the numbers that they claim. Their victomhood mantra has netted trillions for themselves and it’s estimated that they are worth as much as 20 trillion today but they want more.
Eloise the belfour agreement was signed around 1917 and that is what brought the US into WWI. There is an interesting story of how the belfour agreement brought the US into WWI basically the Rothschilds told a very desperate British that the US would help the British fight Germany if the British would give Palestine to the Jews. Palestine didn’t belong to the British and the Rothschilds didn’t have a right to use the US military. However with a president like Woodrow Wilson anything was possible. He had already given the US banking system to the Jews so why not give them the military. tWoodrow Wilson and the Jewish people is very interesting. The women’s vote movement was also involved. The US never should have been involved in WWI or any other war for that matter.
Extremism Apartheid Supremacists formed their club under the insignia banner of Swastika. Again, they have formed the same club but now they formed it under the insignia banner of Star of David. They are the same evil European mongrels who have always succumbed to this extremists ideology even when they were Barbarians. Under these insignias they found that religion can play major part in enforcing others to bow down to them.. Today its the Muslims including children & babies being slaughtered by these God’s cursed tribe and tomorrow, not too far away in line are the Christians.. Never forget Jews have not forgiven Jesus & his followers.. Its just a matter of time… they will come & massacre Christians… Now, todays world should know why God took away their homeland till eternity & cursed them on disobeying His Commands. We must read Torah, Talmud, Bible & Quran … All the 4 Holy Books have cursed & prescribed due unforgivable punishment of these Jews on their demeanor towards non-Jews as they treat non Jews as Gentiles (human animals). Zionists are just the Jews Catalysts expediting that process of their due punishment as God promised.
All Juz (with a few decent exceptions) have blood on their hands. The ongoing mass murders of innocent Palestinian women, and children (more than 10,000) by the Juz of Israel has legitimately led to rise in hostility and public anger towards Juz in Europe, who are enthusiastic supporters of Israeli violence and its Fascistic policies against the Palestinians. This has nothing (never) to do with “antisemitism”. All Arabs, including the Palestinians are Semitic people.
I know that this sounds like conspiracy theory writ large but those psychopathic monsters have a long time held plan to take over the capitalist west and then took over the rest of the world including communist China. That they will not succeed in this deluded plan should go without needing to be said. And were it not for the existence of nuclear weapons it would be an attempt leaving millions dead but the rest of the world intact. But now this one of the two deadly dangerous threats to the ongoing survival of the human race, The other is of course capitalist caused Catastrophic Climate Change.
The Jewish upper echelons decided long ago to exploit the German’s Jewish massacres in the late 1930s to 1945 -which were greatly exaggerated by the way by what some sane Jews have called the Holocaust industry. The exploiters became Zionists and the super rich US zionists made sure that the Zionists who came to Israel would be well suppled with modern heavy weapons. I tragedy for Jews and for all the gentiles concerned.
There is an opinion about why Israel is enforcing the decimation of Gaza – The West and Israel want to build another larger Canal, 200 metres wide, to take larger ships running both ways and unless they deecimate Gaza and the Palestinians the route of the Canal has to take a major diversion around Gaza. Without Gaza no major diversion is required! Follow the Money !
There is also over 500 billions worth of natural gas offshore, and so near to energy poor europe! 12 contracts have already been made with petrochemical giants to exploit the resource that belongs to Gaza.
Some observations on the Israeli Hamas “war or conflict” whatever you want to call it. A question? Why does Israel need $14 billion more dollars? To protect itself from Hamas? Well maybe some money but not $14 billion. Ok moving on, what Hamas did to Israel was by definition an unprovoked act of aggression. So Israel had every right to react. Normally does the country attacked “go after” the attackers immediately? Not necessarily. The military asses the situation and decides what the plan for retaliation will be. It could start in days or weeks. So Israel’s ground offensive started on October 28 three weeks after Hamas attacked. So normally between the time of the attack and the attacked countries response what happens? Not much action mostly planning. So did Israel take any action immediately after the Hamas attack? Yes they started bombing Gaza. So if you started bombing before the ground invasion what would you bomb? Mainly military installations and troops right? So what did Israel start bombing? Military installations? No they started random bombing of Gaza Ciity. Random bombing?Yes people’s homes schools hospitals churches not Hamas. Why would they be doing this kind of bombing? Good question. Maybe you readers have have an answere. To date over 10,000 people including lots of children have died. Oh I know these deaths are causalities of “war”. Really? That’s a lot of casualties for just three weeks of “fighting”. I thought one of the conditions of warfare was to try to not kill or injure civilians. So yes of course there will be causalities of war. So these 10,000 then are causalities of war? I guess so what else could they be? So then in this case to stop the casualties you would have to stop the fighting with a ceasefire right? So is a ceasefire in the future?. The Israeli president backed by the US has said no. So will the bombing continue now that the ground invasion has started with the goal of the elimination of Hamas? Good question. There has been an average of 475 “casualties” per day since the bombing began. So will that daily average go up if the bombing continues? And if there is finally a ceasefire, how may more “casualties of war” will there be? Only time will tell.
If its non Jews then its Casualties of War… then so are the 6 million too; .. casualties of war. Exactly like the Zionists are doing today, …extermination of their enemy including unarmed men women children & babies.. so, What else is new ?? why do tantrums for then & now rejoice for these atrocities committed .. its the same people doing the same thing.. but under different banner on their flag .. actually they both are the same.
William the occupying country does not have a right to murder the occupied for any reason however the occupied have a right to reclaim their property.
Enough of the Promised Land bullshit. The Hebrews evolved during a time when Egypt was a super power of the ancient world. Thousands of years have passed. There is no real estate anywhere promised to anybody by a (“their”) supreme diety. These religious traditions make no sense in a modern world, although they were embraced during Bronze Age. Are we still a planet inhabited by ignorant Shepards and primitive agriculturists? Or just crazy people with nuclear weapons?
All facts:
Zionist Judaism = Nazi Germany
Jews murder Palestinians because they are Palestinians.
Jews are murdering Palestinians without accountability.
Jews are controlling Biden and the US government.
Jews and the US government are committing war crimes.
Sam:
Germany was a victim, not the aggressor. Suggest you read some real history books.
Is the USA the victim of the Bush attacks on Iraq and Afghanistan?
In some ways yes, but also in some ways, we the people must share responsibility for it. I can make a lengthy argument for it, but not here. Not for you.
Sam:
I was referring to your specific first sentence comment. As for sharing responsibility for what the U.S. government does, that is not true either. You know why? The United States is neither a democracy or a republic.
The United States is a government of the politicians, by the lobbyists, and for the special interest groups. Therefore, I share no responsibility for what the government does regarding foreign policies. That applies to domestic policies as well.
Thanks Sam for as they say “telling it like it is”. I am William Keyes. I posted 4 posts above you. If you read it you can see where I was going without coming out and saying it and that is the bombing campaign was the beginning of the extinction campaign to wipe out the entire Palestine population. In the original post I drafted after I said why does Israel need $14 billion? I said to kill more Palestinians faster. So
W. I believe it’s best to state facts as simply as possible.
Woopy, I think the most erroneous and consequential belief that Jews impose on the world is their religious argument that they have the moral rights to Palestinian land.
It’s ludicrous. Yet, we hear it all the time, especially when Jews speak among Jews. Most notably, Israeli Jews in their government, when they have private and semi-private talks with fellow Jews.
Doug you make good sense. Only one comment is that “these religious traditions make no sense in the modern world”; probably better stated is that the religious beliefs make no sense anytime. It’s ok if Jews have their beliefs however not ok when their beliefs infringe on other’s rights no matter what time in history. Murder, stealing, torture and lying about it are never ok.

“The Palestinians have unwittingly sacrificed themselves for the purposes of enlightening the entire planetary civilization to the profound evil and satanic nature of the Zionist State of Israel,” wrote the Armchair Prophet. A profound statement. Gaza is Christ, and Israel is Israel. But Gaza is also Amalek. Amalek was Christ from the beginning, but we didn’t see it, because we were told that Christ was Yahweh’s son, and one with him. Now we can begin to see our tragic mistake. This is our wake up call. Let us face the truth about Yahweh and the chosen people he created in his image (or the other way around).
