A composition by Anthony Hopkins, the Welsh actor of film, stage and television, live from Vienna
Presented to me on my 69th Birthday by my Beloved Niece Rubina Subrattyand which I dedicate to my Beloved Wife, Mother and Grand Mother Dadi Kaamilah Bint Qadar (Kathleen Parker Bates)
It
is never easy to put your feelings on paper because most of the time
people do not really feel from their heart what they write.
But,
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is my Witness that you have been my sun and I
never went to sleep or wake up without you in my mind.
I
thank Allah for allowing me to bring happiness into your life too and
from the bottom of my heart I wish you a very Happy Birthday and a very
Happy New Year 2015.
Thank you for being you and just you and not a pretend woman and wife.
I will never tire reminding you how much you mean to me and to our grand daughters.
In spirit I am with you, Wendy, Baby and Sean.
I love you!
This is what many call Destiny.
Happy Birthday my Love!
I cannot really imagine how my life would have been without you!
My
heartfelt feelings would suffice to tell you that I pray to Allah that I
can celebrate your Birthday many, many more times again.

ETonline - Remember in The Notebook, how
Noah went off to World War II and wrote a love letter to Allie for each
day he was gone (even though she never wrote back because her mom hid
them from her)? And they
somehow managed to overcome all the obstacles and end up together,
married, with kids? And then Allie got dementia and Noah had to read her
their love story, so she’d come back to them? And then they both died,
together, in bed? NEWS: Find out why Gosling tried to have McAdams
kicked off The Notebook This story is just like that... Well, mostly.
Floyd and Violet Hartwig met when they were in elementary school in
Fresno, but didn’t start going together until World War II, when Floyd
enlisted in the Navy and the two reunited at the Rainbow Ballroom in
Fresno. They exchanged more than 100 letters while Floyd was fighting
overseas. The Fresno Bee They married in 1947 while Floyd was on leave,
and after he was honorably discharged the following year, Floyd and “Vi”
started a farm back in Fresno. “They chopped cotton and fed turkeys
side by side,” their obituary says. They also had three children --
Donna, Carol, and Kenneth -- four grandchildren, and ten
great-grandchildren. The Fresno Bee Violet was suffering from dementia,
and in January, Floyd was diagnosed with kidney failure and given weeks
to live. On Feb. 11, surrounded by family, 90-year-old Floyd and
89-year-old Violet laid in their hospice beds, their children pushing
them together so their parents could hold hands. The Fresno Bee After 67
years of marriage, Floyd passed first. Five hours later, Violet joined
him. “They had a connection, and I think that connection just came more
and more, especially in the last months of their lives,” their daughter,
Donna, told The Fresno Bee. “My dad could hardly walk and his main
concern was my mom.” We think their love could do anything they wanted
it to. Here are a few movies that made us cry just as much as The
Notebook: less
FRESNO, Calif. (AP) — After spending 67 years together as devoted
husband and wife, there was no question how Floyd and Violet Hartwig
would end their lives — together.
Sensing the couple was close to death, their children pushed their two
hospice beds together and gently placed their father's hand in the
mother's palm.
Floyd, 90, died first. Violet, 89, followed five hours later. They died
Feb. 11 at home, just as they had wished, the family said.
"They wanted to go together," their daughter, Donna Scharton, said Thursday. "It was meant to be that way."
The two knew each other as children, growing up in the Central California farming community of Easton. Romance
sparked at a local dance hall one night when Floyd, a decorated Navy
sailor, was home on shore leave. They were married on Aug. 16, 1947, and
while away Floyd showered Violet with affection through love letters
the family cherishes.
Returning home for good, the two raised three children on their small farm, growing cotton and raising turkeys. Violet helped on the ranch and kept the house. She prepared breakfast early each morning for her husband, seeing him off to work as a ranch foreman and delivering eggs.
"They were dedicated to each other," Scharton said. "Even other people who met them said they had that connection."
The couple, who had four grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren, remained active until recently. Around
the holidays, the family noticed that Violet's dementia had worsened,
and in late January a doctor said Floyd's failing kidneys gave him two
weeks to live.
The family moved the couches from the living room of their ranch house,
making space for the hospice beds. Cynthia Letson said that after her
grandfather passed, they told her grandmother that she could go, too.
They told Violet that Floyd was waiting for her.
Letson said her grandparents are a positive example at a time with too many broken marriages.
"It would be nice if the world got back to the core of marriage," Letson
said. "I don't think people realize that anymore. They need to go back
to the basics that marriage is forever."
The
Zionist propaganda is on an endless loop emphasizing the wanton
slaughter of innocent Israeli citizens replete with now disproven claims
of beheaded babies, a baby in an oven and even the rapes.
However,
the repeated narrative of this attack as being a "surprise attack" is
just accepted by most as a fact. Anyone who has a modicum of knowledge
about the Israel defenses and surveillance of Gaza for decades already
knows that explanation does not hold up to plain facts about the level
of surveillance of Gaza.
This documentary confirms that suspicion
with facts about that day and the time leading up to that day to
conclude, there is no possible way Israeli intelligence and military was
not aware of the attacks both beforehand and while they were happening.
Take the time to watch this documentary and see for yourself.
In
increasingly obvious ways, the line between secular rule and theocratic
governance is breaking down. During the one-term US presidency of Jimmy
Carter, the Western powers played a role in bringing to power the
Islamic theocracy that presently prevails in Iran. Iran is the
modern-day outgrowth of ancient Persia. In 1979 this theocracy was made
to replace the US and Israeli-backed monarchical rule led by the Shah of
Iran.
Looking
out at the World from Canada is a reader-supported publication. To
receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid
subscriber.
The
theocratic character of the Islamic Republic of Iran is integral to the
country’s constitution. The open embrace by most Iranian people of
theocratic principles in their own governance offers one explanation for
the growing list of competitive advantages enjoyed by Iran in its
relationship with Zionist-dominated West. While the exercise of power in
the West pretends to operate on secular, egalitarian and universal
principles, it does not… far from it.
The West is now being
exposed as the stronghold of various strains of religious fanaticisms
that express the scriptural recognition of God’s supposedly Chosen
people. Jewish Chosenites and their Shabbos Goys are regularly exempted
from living within the requirements of a consistently-enforced rule of
law.
This pattern, with dramatically different rules for
different kinds of people, has become so pervasive and marked that it
has come to form the basis of a theocratic order widely adhered to
throughout the West. The double standards emanating from supposedly
divinely-sanctioned inequity are being drawn upon to sanction the mass
murder of one people by another people in Gaza.
Recently
the Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, dramatically put this
principle on full public display in the course of the gruesome genocidal
war whose utter brutality is doing much to bring to light the
theocratic satanism infusing Western governance. In order to justify his
government’s mass murder of Palestinians in Gaza, Netanyahu publicly
cited the Biblical text, namely Chapter 15, verse 2 of the First Book of Samuel. The Israeli Prime Minister proclaimed
“Thus
says the Lord of hosts, ‘I will punish the Amalekites for what they did
to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. Now go,
attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do
not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle
and sheep, camels and donkeys.’”
Benjamin
Netanyahu embodies an extreme expression of the ethos of Jewish
supremacy integral to the Zionist ideology that grew up in the movement
to create a Jewish state. Established in the late 1800s, Zionism began
as a mostly secular movement seeking to establish a place-based Jewish
nationality for all of worldwide Jewry.
In recent times, however,
more and more of Israel’s Jewish population have adopted increasingly
fundamentalist strains of Jewish religion. The result is that Israel
itself is becoming more and more theocratic increasingly along the lines
of Jewish supremacy as embraced most zealously in Talmudic scriptures.
From Christian Dispensationalism to God’s Chosen People and Jewish Zionism
A
major aspect of the Zionist quest to create, expand, and build up
Israel as the world’s sole Jewish state has been embraced by the most
commercialized, populist and politically-instrumentalized branches of
evangelical Christianity. In the realm of Christian Zionism, Jews are
embraced as God’s Chosen people just as Israel is embraced as God’s
Chosen state.
Christian Zionism is a many-faceted religious
phenomenon whose genesis is integral to the emergence of the Israeli
nationality in the twentieth century. The Christian Zionist spectacle
overseen by Pastor John Hagee embodies a pre-eminent contemporary
example of this messianic religious movement which epitomizes some of
the intolerance that sometimes goes hand-in-hand with theocracy.
Pastor
Hagee preaches the televised prophesies of “The Rapture” from his
Church in San Antonio Texas. His extended flock includes 11.5 million
Americans who are members of Christians United For Israel. Pastor
Hagee’s sermons anticipate that Jesus, the Son of God, is poised to make
a “Second Coming” in order to rule over a golden millennium of
righteousness centred in and around the Israeli and future global
capital of Jerusalem.
For many politicians, to receive the
blessings of Rev. Hagee and the powerful political apparatus over which
he rules, forms a necessary requirement along the way to some of the
highest elected offices in the USA. In the Big Leagues of Christian
evangelism in North America, Christian Zionism prevails. It does so with
very little overt opposition except from the likes of Pastor Rick Wiles
whose congregation revolves around the TruNews digital platform.
Within
the operations of Pastor Hagee’s Church we see the means of exercising
political and military power in ways that express the authority embodied
in large amounts of money. This convergence of great influence is
directed to the advancement of an Israeliocentric theocracy embraced by
much of the leadership in the United States of America.
The formulation of Christian Zionism figured significantly in the the rise of Jewish Zionism. In authoring Der Juden Stataat, Theodor Herzl and other secular Jews laid out a road map pointed towards the formation of a sovereign Jewish polity.
The
founders of Jewish Zionism were influenced by the trans-Atlantic
religious fervour generated initially by Anglo-Irish sources, but
especially by John Nelson Darby.
Darby’s
“dispensationalist” interpretation placed much emphasis on his
conception of the continuing importance of God’s Chosen people over
segmented intervals of time. In doing so he reinforced Biblical thinking
on the central role of Israelites in the unfolding saga of
Christianity. This emphasis was reinforced in 1909 in the authorship of
the heavily-footnoted version of the Bible by Cyrus Scofield. His volume
was prestigiously published with major Jewish financial backing by
Oxford University Press.
This highlighting of the future importance of the connections drawn in the Old Testament between Israelites and the Promised Land would take on amplified importance throughout the twentieth century.
In
Britain during the height of its global Empire, elite Christians made
common cause with elite Jews and especially with those in and around the
Rothschild banking dynasty. The result was the Balfour Declaration of
1917 where the making and expansion of Israel was formally embraced as a
core project of what would become the Anglo-American Empire.
The
Rothschilds famously financed the Jewish agricultural settlements and
co-ops that started the ball rolling towards the founding of Israel in
1948. Many Christian Zionist preachers prophesied that this event
pointed towards the imminence of The Rapture, a word, and an event contrived in the Scofield Bible.”
Controversies
Stirred Up in Response to the Genocide in Gaza and the West Bank
Generate Attacks on the Rights and Freedoms of Pro-Palestinian
Proponents
The
country that was first established on an appeal aimed at realizing the
full potential of “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” has
crashed into a deep swamp of vile contagion. The basis of this descent
into the quagmire of atrocity upon atrocity is the Biden
administration’s “ironclad” support for its joint genocidal project
done in partnership with Israel’s Netanyahu government.
The
Palestinian fate within Israel, the most aggressive and expansionary
outgrowth of the Anglo-American Empire, is precisely the opposite of the
promise seemingly directed towards posterity and the world in the USA’s
founding Manifesto, the Declaration of Independence.
In the
shared quest to follow through on the Zionist project of furthering the
exercise of Jewish Supremacy, the targeted natives in Gaza are being
subjected to industrialized death. This factory of death is being
accompanied by the ruthless repression of survivors in ways that counter
all conditions for the successful pursuit of happiness. In both the
United States and Israel, the appropriation of the lands of Native
peoples supplied settler populations with ample means for pursuing
happiness.
Within
the United States and throughout many Western countries, large numbers
of citizens have organized to express shared opposition to the
continuing travesty of the mass murder of the civilian population of
Gaza. One of the main factors behind the extermination is the rapid
demographic increase of native Palestinians.
This population
growth menaces the majority status of the Jewish population in the lands
governed by Israel. Without a Jewish majority in Israel, the permanence
of a Jewish state is threatened. This statistical explanation, however,
cannot provide any legal or moral justification for a many-faceted
genocide aimed at destroying a people through indiscriminate bombardment
and forced starvation. This genocide extends to the deliberate
shattering of every facet of the life support systems in Gaza, both
natural and man-made.
Especially through the upsurge of
pro-Palestinian encampments on US campuses, the genocide in Gaza and the
West Bank was met with much agitation by defenders of the rights of
Palestinians to life and liberty. The protesters, including many
university students and faculty, drew attention to many international
laws and human rights conventions whose proper enforcement should have
protected the targeted population.
The
campus protests in key centres of higher learning were made
all-the-more poignant by the fact that the genocidal assault targeting
important cultural institutions included the demolition of all twelve
universities in Gaza. Generally speaking, Palestinians place a premium
on good education including an emphasis on higher learning.
The
peaceful and principled educational protests outside Gaza were often
met with draconian measures in sharp violation of fundamental principles
like freedom of speech, assembly, and conscience. A number of prominent
Jewish Zionist billionaires mobilized in unison to threaten and execute
the removal of financial support from institutions of higher learning,
including at some of the most prestigious Ivy League schools in the
United States.
The billionaires’ agents along with Zionist
politicians and media operatives mobilized to cripple the
pro-Palestinian protests and turn public opinion against them. They were
instrumental in calling in riot squad teams of police as well as
Zionist-backed goon squads employed to break up the encampments and
brutalize those inhabiting the tent villages on campus.
Many
students were charged with crimes for exercising their own basic and
well-codified constitutional rights. Some students were removed from
their universities, denied the right to graduate, and subjected to
blacklisting in order to obstruct them from gaining future employment.
Many Zionist groups, including the secret backers of the notorious
Canary Mission web site, joined in the task of trying to disable the
messengers of the case against the blatant criminality of the Israeli
genocidaires and their American backers.
Similarly
some professors, including Jewish professors, were fired. Indeed, the
controversies generated by the US-Israeli genocide in Gaza and the West
Bank are creating major rifts dividing Jews throughout the so-called
Diaspora. Within Israel, however, there has been strong unity of support
by most Jews behind the military campaign to depopulate Gaza and the
West Bank of its Palestinian inhabitants. This depopulation is planned
to occur through extermination or through the coercive ejection of
survivors.
So far the Jewish Lobby’s war to control the
curriculum, the political discourse as well as the hiring and firing of
faculty and administrators, is going in favour of the pressure exerted
by billionaire donors. The result is the most concerted and well
organized assault ever on the vital principles of Academic Freedom on
campus.
If universities cannot provide forums of open debate
between proponents of competing theories in both the social sciences and
the hard sciences, where is this crucial process to take place? If
universities are to be sidelined as sites of contention in the
formulation of public policy based on verifiable evidence, what chance
do we have to hold back the obvious indications that tyranny and
authoritarianism are in rapid ascent.
This assault on Academic
Freedom has long been a high priority of those behind Zionists
“charities” in Western countries. These backers regularly display
theocratic zeal in blocking any free speech that they see as heretical
blaspheme running contrary to their fanatical attachment to the imperial
and now-fully-genocidal regime of Israel.
From Rabbi Meir Kahane to the Religious Zionism of Itamar Ben-Gvir
As
Goyim high and low in the pyramid of power increasingly display an
apparent willingness to go along with exempting Jews from many aspects
of legal accountability, the conditions on the ground support the
understanding that the universalist principle of equality before the law
has become defunct.
The Christian Zionist ethos continues to
spread. It supports the view that a divine license have been granted to
Jewish Chosenites, but especially to Chosenites who live in the lands
said to be granted by God to the self-declared Israelites.
This
theocratic understanding is reflected in the actions of Israel and its
main US military backers whose leaders are acting as if they are not
subject to many of the rules meant to circumscribe the conduct of other
people, peoples and governments.
The
current shrinking group of beneficiaries of the Israeli and US
governments are still prone to see their countries as exceptional and
messianic polities charged to realize a Manifest Destiny ordained by
God.
This theocratic bent is especially pronounced in the
current coalition led by Prime Minister Netanyahu. This messianic
sensibility is rooted in the religious and exclusivist, anti-Arab
preoccupations epitomized by Rabbi Meir Kahane. He is the founder of the
Jewish Defense League which was designated by the FBI in 2001 as a
terrorist group. Rabbi Kahane’s Jewish racism was considered too radical
for the Israeli Knesset. Its members prevented him from running for
re-election in 1988.
Rabbi
Kahane can be considered as something of a Jewish Orthodox patron saint
for Netanyahu’s extremist cabinet including Ben-Gvir and Bezalel
Smotrich. Ben-Gvir and Smotrich embody the anti-Palestinian zealotry of
those inhabiting the illegal Jewish settlements in the West Bank.
Ben-Gvir
also venerates the memory of Baruch Goldstein. Goldstein is the mass
murderer who shot 29 Palestinians and wounded 125 before he was beaten
to death at the mosque at Hebron’s Tomb of the Patriarchs during Purim
in February of 1994.
As Netanyahu’s Minister of National Security, Ben-Gvir is
obsessed with replacing al-Aqsa mosque, including the Dome of the Rock,
with a Third Temple in Jerusalem to fulfill some of the prophesies
preached by Pastor John Hagee among others. The controversies being
stirred up in these religious contentions have become serious
international topics of geopolitical calculation.
There is
much theocratic intensity attending the manipulation of events with an
eye towards bringing about a war as the prelude to the arrival of the
Jewish messiah or of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ in the journey
towards The Rapture.
10/7 as a Variation and Extension of 9/11
Especially
in the charges being brought by the International Criminal Court
against Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, many
careless commentators posit an equivalence between the criminality of
Israeli and Hamas officials. This assumption of an equivalence in blame,
has become a prevalent motif for those that compare the events of
October 7 and the subsequent post-October 7 genocide that continues
until this day.
The run up to, and the nature of, the events of
October 7, which are sometimes referred to as 10/7, should not be
treated as an open and shut case whose true content can be taken for
granted. In fact there are many uncertain aspects of what really
transpired to make the events of 10/7 unfold as they did.
As with
9/11, many official sources repeat the lame claim that the events of
10/7 emerged from an “intelligence failure.” The prevalence of this
assertion can be seen as constituting a red alarm pointing to the
probability that the events of 10/7 were something like a false flag
combined with elements of an “inside job.”
Who benefited from
10/7? Whose roles in the operation are most subject to suspicion?
Benjamin Netanyahu readily fulfills both criteria. The events of October
7 immediately resuscitated the current Prime Minister’s political
career. His declaration of a war to “eradicate Hamas” kept him out of
prison for having piled up a number of domestic corruption allegations
and convictions.
As many have observed, the supposed collapse of
all Israeli security protocols during the early morning of October 7 is
simply not credible. Nevertheless this supposed breakdown in the most
sensitive aspects of national security have become integral to the
narrative employed to justify the genocidal elimination of large numbers
of Palestinians.
The events of 10/7 just happened to occur at a
moment when the extremist Kahanist government of Israel was and is more
vehemently anti-Arab than any prior government. It just happened to
occur at a time when the demographic balance was swinging to favour the
numerical strength of Palestinians over Jewish Israelis in the so-called
Promised Land. This demographic alteration helps explain the apparent
blood lust in the current IDF assault that is clearly targeted
particularly at children as well as at their fertile-aged mothers.
For
the naive, the Hamas prison breakout just happened to deliver
justification for what the Netanyahu government most needed and wanted.
This coincidence closely resembled the scenario wherein CIA asset Osama
Bin Laden just happened to deliver on 9/11 the key to materializing the
wish list sought by the heavily Zionist Project for a New American
Century (PNAC).
In the run up to 9/11, PNAC and Mossad were very
busy mapping out the requirements to make the US Armed Forces a more
effective fighting force in the US-led wars for Israel that were about
to take place in, for instance, Iraq, Syria, and Libya. The supposed
actions of Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda turned out to be a gift
providing the Israel Lobby with exactly what it most wanted from the US
government.
The timing and elaborate intelligence-agency
involvement in the background to the events of October 7 call into
question the current justification being used to explain the massive
extermination campaign done in the name of “eradicating Hamas.”
As
the longtime darling of Likud prime ministers, Hamas became the object
of close and supportive attention by Netanyahu. He used the Muslim
Brotherhood organization to counter the secular attractions of the PLO
and to obstruct any serious grappling with a two-state formula to ease
the Israel-Palestine conflict.
Like the events of 9/11, the
events of October 7, 10/7, were immediately interpreted in
sensationalized media reports to justify history-changing military
invasions before any formal investigations conducted by neutral
observers were even attempted. This failure of investigation is strongly
suggestive that the fix is in and that the genocidal assault on Gaza
was not a spontaneous response to a surprise event. Rather the evidence
is strong that 10/7 was a pre-planned episode emerging in part at least
from the national security apparatus of Israel and its Anglo-American
sponsors. See
The
failure of the international system to delve into the substance of the
basic rationale given for such a horrific genocide can be seen as yet
another sign that the Kabbalistic character of a Luciferian agenda are
in the ascendancy. There must be some reckoning with this important
driver of current events. The rise of a menacing form of Western
theocracy continues to overtake the inheritance of Enlightenment
rationality.
God’s Aberrant Chosenites
In
late May Karim Khan, the Chief Prosecutor of the International Criminal
Court, announced that he was well advanced in the process of seeking
judicial approval for pressing charges against Benjamin Netanyahu and
Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. Kahn emphasized the international crime
of imposing starvation with the object of exterminating the Palestinian
population of Gaza. He also singled out three leaders of Hamas for
conducting war crimes.
After a close reading of the allegations,
Michel Chossudovsky pointed to the absurdity of the charges against
Hamas officials as if Israel is the primary victim of the Gaza conflict.
He implicitly lends credence to the lie that the genocidal response to
10/7 represents a legitimate act of self-defence on the part of the
Israelis. His attempt to appear equitable in his allegations is in fact a
presumption of the outcome of the necessary judicial investigation into
10/7 that has yet to take place
Prof
Chossudovsky’s important critique notwithstanding, the announcement by
the Chief Prosecutor of the ICC of charges against the top officials
overseeing the assault on the people of Gaza were well received by many.
Alternatively the charges were immediately condemned by many Zionists.
The condemnations included those of Netanyahu who predictably declared
the ICC and its Chief Prosecutor to be “anti-Semitic.”
Among those that praised this major juridical development was Simon Tisdall at The Guardian in Great Britain.
Tisdall anticipated on 29 May that “the
world will know the truth, just as it has slowly come to know the truth
of Gaza. The truth is, Israel under Netanyahu’s leadership, at a moment
of truly dreadful national trauma, has gone rogue. It will not begin to
heal until he, like the leaders of Hamas, is made to answer for his
actions in a court of law.”
Tisdall’s essay followed up on a topic introduced in The Guardian
the prior day. In a investigative report, Harry Davis described the
shocking undercover operation by Israeli authorities under Netanyahu’s
command. Netanyahu directed his agents led by Mossad Chief Yossi Cohen
to infiltrate and sabotage the ICC.
The
primary target of the operation was the then-ICC Chief Prosector, Fatou
Bensouda. Bensouda and her family were secretly surveilled for
anything that might prove incriminating or compromising. The Israeli
sting operation was aimed especially at preventing deep ICC
investigations of possible infractions of international law in the
Israeli treatment of the native inhabitants in the Occupied Territories
of Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
In looking back on this history of Netanyahu’s efforts to subvert one of the two UN courts, Tisdall observed
Once
again, Netanyahu has crossed a line. Once again, his contempt for
global opinion, for the values of the western democracies which too
unquestioningly sustain and arm his country, and for the most basic
principles of international law, is on galling display.
If true, this devastating assault by the upper echelons of the Israeli
government on the independence and integrity of the International
Criminal Court demands a decisive disciplinary response. Tisdall’s
indignation is therefore welcome. It is also truncated. Where is there
comparable indignation against those in the so-called “western
democracies” who “too unquestioningly sustain and arm” Israel.
Where
is there indignation against the media colleagues of Tisdall who
usually ignore and steer around the kind of revelations that might have
made Netanyahu and Cohen think twice before engaging in a criminal
subversion of the often compromised system of criminal justice at the
international level.
Where is the indignation about the workings
of an international system of finance that so obviously favours hugely
disproportionate apportionments of assets and liabilities. How is it
that the disproportionate rewarding by Zionist operatives and their
wealthy backers can succeed so opulently in purchasing politicians,
public opinion, judges, prosecutors and on and on and on.
The
bought-and-paid-for corruption made integral to the workings of our core
institutions, subjects Enlightenment rationality to the pervasive evil
cultivated by the religious cult of money.
The audacity of the
Chosenites finds many expressions. Why is it, for instance, that the
government of Israel is able to continue pretending that it does not
possess an arsenal of nuclear weapons? By maintaining this lie, the
Israeli government is allowed to exempt itself from being subject to the
usual inspections and regulatory controls associated with the
possession of nuclear weaponry. Who is complicit in maintaining this
corrosive manifestation of Chosenite exceptionalism?
Why does the
community of nations tolerate this Israeli contempt for the rest of
humanity? Why should we tolerate any longer being rendered subject to
the outcomes of neocon games of Russian Roulette. Those playing these
games of depopulation and potential mass extinction apparently think
nothing of treating the destiny of all life on earth as the object of
their own perverse orgies of high-risk behaviour.
The role of the
United States in this ongoing display of Chosenite double standards is
being put on public display in Congress where the flagrant buying power
of Israel First/ AIPAC bribery is notorious. The House of
Representatives has approved of a Bill to press harsh legal penalties on
all the staff members of the ICC instead of on the likes of Netanyahu
and his Mossad hit men.
Moreover, the dominate factions in the US
Congress are preparing to shower on accused genocidaire Benjamin
Netanyahu many more standing ovations as he prepares to address the
world from the once bully pulpit of America’s failed and discredited
democracy. This saga is unfolding as the front runner in the US election
campaign, Donald Trump, makes it clear that the core of his electoral
strategy is to outbid Biden is the contest to win over the Zionist
clique who are the real rulers of the United States as well as Canada,
France, Germany UK etc etc.
While
the theocratic government of Iran is far from perfect, it offers its
citizens a more transparent system of transactions than the Western
alternative. The Western approach includes the veiled incorporation of
theocratic principles that severely undermine the principles of
universality integral to a viable rule of law. This double standard
shows up in the discordant treatment afforded those inside and outside
the circle of God’s aberrant Chosenites.
This
piece is a real tour de force. Not many of us are aware of Trump's role
in this shameful attempt to subvert the ICC. Thanks so much for writing
it Kudos ,and keep up the good work!
Bravo
Tony for taking on this depressing - nay, disgusting - topic and asking
such pertinent questions, given that Zionism is one glaring
contradiction after another.
I'd like to address your
starting question though. Iranian 'theocracy' works because the (Shia)
Islam it professes is a proper religion whose central and guiding
principles are shared by Christianity and by all the world's cultures.
These principles - sometimes called 'natural law' - underlie Iran's
body of laws, just as they do in Christian countries - whether they are
now technically secular or not.
Preceeding Islam by
half a millenia, also in west Asia, was the Eastern Roman Empire
'Byzantium'. The symbol of Byzantium is the double headed eagle on a
gold background - this illustrates the inseperably twinned rule in one
body of the sacred (God's wisdom through the church) and earthly (the
King or emperer). There is not a single Orthodox church that does not
fly this flag and not a single Orthodox believer that does not endorse
this principle.
Secularity is a modern innovation of
the West by the haters of Christianity. No need to ask who hates
Christianity most of all. Clue: it is not muslims, who are also waiting
for Christ's return and elevate Mary above all women. Funny how most
North Americans are unaware of this fact!
Both Islam
and Orthodoxy share a central concept, in Islam known as jihad, in Greek
from the earliest times, preceeding Christianity by millenia, known as
philotimo. The West translates the latter as honour and deliberately
misunderstands jihad as some sort of warfare. No, it is the struggle
within every person to do the honourable thing, for onself, for one's
family, neighbours, country, for God - it is deeper than 'conscience'
but conscience is close enough.
There is too much to
say about the illegitimacy of the hebrew tribe's claims to ancient
Canaan, the proven nonsense of their bible stories (archeological and
textual), the lie that al Aqsa sits on the site of the original hebrew
temple - it was built on the base of the Roman Fort Antonia - etc.etc.
What is important is that from their first appearance in what is now
Palestine c, 550BC they were an aggressive group that envied, hated and
waged war on the people around them to steal their lands and wealth and
in captivity waged war in a more stealthy way. Right up to the present
IMHO. And the dual essence of this disguised warfare has always been
financial on one hand and on the other the
destruction
of theocratic / natural law of the foreign societies in which they
reside, and thus the destruction of the social fabric. For them
philotimo / jihad is viewed as ridiculous weakness, exploitable. Thus
they have no limits....because in truth they have no god (they are not
monotheistic, see Ron Unz's article Oddities of the Jewish Religion https://www.unz.com/runz/american-pravda-oddities-of-the-jewish-religion/
and Micheal Hoffman's book Judaism's Strange Gods), so there is no
deity to account to: they are their own gods, which is the very essence
of secularism.
It
seems to me that maybe Iran has an advantage because the theocratic
nature of the country is up front. It's clear to people how decisions
are made. There's transparency. But then when I look at my own society,
Western society, I think, well, that's become very theocratic as well.
There are inheritances from the Old Testament, the Torah, having to do
with this concept that there is a chosen people—that going back to
Abraham and his son Isaac and Isaac's son Jacob, there is a covenant
with a chosen people who represent the seed of Abraham.
And
this Chosenite ethos seems to have become very powerful in the West.
And it is now being expressed even to the point where one Chosenite
people, the Jewish people and their state—their state is becoming like a
chosen state. It has a different set of rules. It's not bound by the
same limitations as the rule of law, equality, and the universal nature
of laws and the understanding that everybody be treated equally. It's
even reached the extent that one people is claiming the right to kill
another people, to eliminate another people, in what's being called a
genocide.
And the people perpetrating the genocide are the victims, they tell us.
That
raises the whole issue of the Holocaustianity and another approach to
theocracy. The story of World War II creates the context out of which
Israel emerges after World War II as a kind of phoenix rising.
So
it seemed to me that it would be useful to think about the Western
governance as saying there is a uniform rule of law, as saying we're all
equal before the law, but the reality is it's not at all like that. And
Israel itself is becoming a kind of theocracy with the likes of these
settlers, the Ben-Gavirs and Smotriches and all they embody. It's
becoming a messianic, very religious country where people are obsessed
with ideas of a third temple and ruling the world from Jerusalem.
And a bunch of Americans support that, including Christians. Do you want to talk about John Hagee and Christian Zionism?
I
don't know that much about John Hagee, but as far as I know, he's a
typical example of these dispensationalist-type Christians, the
Christians that got waylaid by the Scofield Bible and went down the path
of becoming extremist Christian Zionists who have the bizarre idea that
we should force God's hand
by encouraging the Jews to commit abominations in the Holy Land, which
will then somehow bring Jesus back, and Jesus will save the elect, the
few, and damn almost everybody else. And somehow that's good. And then
they'll take credit for making Jesus come back and do that. It’s one of
the dumbest theologies that I've ever heard of.
Well,
there is this phenomena called Christian Zionism.And we'll look at the
deeper historical roots of it. But these days, Pastor John Hagee is kind
of the dominant figure because of his group that has over 11 million
members, Christians for Israel. And so he is running a major empire.
He's a multi-billionaire by now.
This
is an extremely lucrative approach to Christianity. The big evangelical
churches are all to some extent Christian Zionists. There's the odd
Christian critique of Christian Zionism, like Rick Wiles, but the big
commercial audiences, the big television audiences, are dominated by
this obsession now with something called the rapture and the second
coming of Jesus and somehow Israel becoming the center of world
governance for a golden millennium. And the Christians think that Jesus
will be in control. And then the Jews haven't had their Messiah yet, but
they're still waiting for their Messiah. And how is this going to work
out?
So
Mike Pence or other people who want to get into high office have to go
through John Hagee. And John Hagee can harness millions of people to
electoral campaigns. And you've got to play with big money to be part of
this system. It is forming a national church in the United States,
Christian Zionism.
So
we're living in a society which definitely has a powerful theocracy
which is not really noticed. So my effort in this essay was to say,
let's notice it.
It's
not only about Christian Zionism. It's about largely the fact that we
have this thing called the rule of law, but then we have an
understanding that some people are exempt.
The
Chosenites are exempt. So now it's seen as strange that they're being
held to some kind of account by these UN courts, the International Court
of Justice on the one hand, and now the ICC, the International Criminal
Court, which is being infiltrated.
And
now Britain has intervened to say, you can't charge Netanyahu and
Gallant and probably others. Why? Well, hey, come on. They're the chosen
people. They're doing a noble task. It's not genocide. They're simply
defending themselves from the sins of the real genociders who came out
on October. And Hamas are charged along with the Israelis. It's sort of
like the real damage was done to Israel, which now has to defend itself.
So
I'm trying to look at all of these developments through the lens of
this theocracy that we don't acknowledge, but we now have to acknowledge
because it's hitting us in the face: the disparity of conduct and the
disparity of wealth and the disparity of power. The fact that it's not
an egalitarian system and people are not subject to the same rules.
There is a Chosenite category, which is highly theocratic in its roots,
and it's becoming the obvious defining principle in how our world is
unfolding.
Yeah,
I would have to pretty much agree with most of that, Tony. One thing I
think I would add, though, is that I think that the theocracy in the
West is not so much the pastor John Hagee’s, though he is one wing of
it. But I think the dominant official religion in the West is secular,
progressivist, materialist humanism. Now, that actually gets tied in
with Judaism because Judaism is very materialistic. It doesn't believe
in an afterlife. There are only very vague allusions to an afterlife in
Judaism and not much attention is paid to it. What's important in
Judaism is this life: having a good life materially and getting power
and the Jewish tribe having power and pleasure and prospering. And they
don't worry about the next life.
And
so this secular materialist progressivist humanism is also very much
like Judaism because Judaism is narcissistic. It worships itself, the
“chosen people.” Sandra Lubarsky, who co-edited with me the book 9/11 and American Empire: Christians, Jews, and Muslims Speak Out, said it directly to me that today the Jewish people has replaced God as the object of worship of the Jews.
So I said, that's very bizarre, Sandra. That's totally cosmically narcissistic.
But
it's true. And just as humanism is humans worshiping humans, which is
cosmic narcissism, likewise, Jews worshiping Jews is cosmic narcissism.
So
we have these materialists, narcissists, humanists, whatever. And then
progressivists. The Jews are trying to get closer and closer and closer
to this utopia on earth that they believe will happen when their Messiah
comes and conquers and subjugates all of the non-Jews. That's the
traditional Jewish eschatology. So things are supposed to get better and
get really good in the end. Progressivism is also like that.
So
this seemingly non-religious faith of the elites of the West, which has
been around for more than a century, which is basically
atheistic—secular, progressivist, materialist humanism— is very much a
kind of a spinoff on millenarian messianic Judaism.
And
so for me, Pastor John Hagee is just some whack job representing a
bunch of very low IQ, relatively low income people. That's why they give
a lot of their what little income they have to John Hagee, because
they're so low IQ Those people don't matter (in terms of exercising
power). They're just smart enough to figure out how to find their way to
the voting booth and pull the lever that their Jewish billionaire
masters tell them to pull.
But
the real religion of the West, the real theocracy is secular,
materialist, progressivist humanism. And that is a spinoff on Jewish
millenarian messianic thought. So that's my take…
