Israel in command

Palestine is losing. And losing very badly. Israel is winning. And winning spectacularly.

The strange characteristics of our times is a veritable transvaluation of values. Those who clamor for justice cannot even see that justice is now so far beyond the pale that drastic measures are necessary. Of course, when it comes to voicing much needed drastic measures, every single justice warrior remains silent.

What do they do instead? They wax on breathlessly about how this time is different. How this time, the whole world can see what Israel is doing. Ergo, Israel is losing the hearts and the minds of world opinion and when the dust settles, the Palestinians will be victorious.

Hahahahahahahaha! What a fuckin croc!

By transvalution of values I mean this: what is taken as veritable proof of destruction and loss is presented as victory; what is taken as irrefutable proof of victory is translated into loss. Israel’s stunning victories are signs, apparently, that it will eventually lose. The Palestinians gross and unimaginable decimation is taken as sign that they will, in the end, win.

Give me a fuckin’ break!

Israel has war-gamed this scenario in every possible way. Israel knows very well that outraged world opinion would react just as they are. But Israel also knows the world, collectively, will do jack shit. This is exactly what is happening!

I’m also convinced they war-gamed their ability to control public opinion. They could reduce the scope of legitimate outrage by ensuring that all aggrieved parties would stop short of two things:

1)      Calling for military escalation. If you love and care for the Palestinian people, you ought to be out on the street demanding not a ceasefire, but escalation. Some entity or coalition (international or otherwise) needs to put the Israelis in their place and punish them for such blatant and violent transgression not of international law but basic humanity. But no bleeding heart radical will dare utter such a thing.

2)      Recognizing unequivocally Hamas’s legitimacy. Who gives a flying fuck about how many Israelis were supposedly killed on October 7th? That has nothing to do with anything! But the moment you express your sympathies for all parties (including the “innocent” Israelis who are equally a victim of this recent escalation of violence), you have already apologized for the aggressor. This is all Israel requires to maintain their prevailing propaganda Overton window that equates the heinous violence of Israel with the supposedly equally heinous violence of Hamas. The two are not the same. Hamas needs to take violence to the next level if Palestine hopes to survive; but they cannot do so without (other) state intervention. Since all states cower at the prospect of provoking Israel, the decimation of the Palestinian people is an assured certainty.

The only lesson Israel has learned through all this is that they can escalate and the world will do fuckall. Even if things calm down in the months and years to come, know that Israel has not been chastened in the least. The only thing they have learned (are learning) is that there is no end to the violence they can unleash that will make any state actors anywhere retaliate. We are dealing with thugs and this is thug mentality. If you are fighting turf wars on the streets in California, do you think you can survive by appealing to public opinion and counting that as victory?

Rabbi Shmuley’s latest humiliation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is telling. Shmuley, don’t forget, is the advocate of open hostility between the Jews and the world goyim, meaning he sees no reason for Israel any longer to appeal to the international community but to instead bare its fangs. What about all those who said for so many years that Jews actually run the world, or US foreign policy, through backdoor lobbying and psyops?

What Rabbi Shmuley is saying is not that this is untrue but that this need no longer remain hidden. Because the world has shown it is impotent and powerless to curb Jewish power, Jews ought to openly assert their full spectrum dominance.

If such is the case, the cowardly reactionary Left will howl that Israel’s now open and transparent acts of aggression will surely entail its own demise!

Hahahaha! I don’t think so. Rather, it will entail more acts of barbaric violence against the Palestinians and even more reluctance by any legitimate state actors to do anything at all. That is the only lesson Israel could possibly take away from all of this. Mark my words: Israel is in full control in the geopolitical arena. They are the only political entity that acts with any real sense of sovereign interest. The rest of the world operates on a negative vision of sovereignty that makes any discreet political action or intervention impossible. The rest of the world, that is, prides itself on a cowardly Machiavellian vision which boils down to wait and see: “I’ll pretend I know what I’m doing and that I’m allowing the bad actors to destroy themselves.” This is cover for: “I don’t know what the fuck I’m doing or what I’m supposed to do, but I trust all will sort itself out.”

When exactly did the world become so cowardly? Rabbi Shmuley and Benjamin Netanyahu are being vindicated daily. Netanyahu called the world’s bluff and he is winning in the fullest possible sense. Why indeed should he back down? He won’t. Not until the Palestinians are expelled completely from the Gaza strip.

Ever wonder why ghastly images of Israeli destruction of Palestine are allowed to proliferate? You think the public dissemination of Israeli barbarity will blow up in Israel’s face? Haha!

The reason these images must proliferate is because what is ongoing in Palestine is a public crucifixion. What does it matter to drive stakes into Jesus’ wrists and ankles if the rest of the world cannot see it? The goal is deterrence. The horror inflicted on the Palestinians must be known not necessarily to the world but certainly to the Palestinians. That is the only way to guarantee evacuation.

Once evacuation and ethnic cleansing are complete, then perhaps Israel can tone down its barbarity and start granting Palestinians certain concessions, like limited right of return or even some rights as Israeli citizens. But make no mistake: the strategy is full-spectrum bloodshed now and reconciliation later. And so far, all signs point to overwhelming Israeli victory.

And please stop crying for the US to end the carnage. What sort of dignity will be restored to the Palestinians or the world at large if the US comes in and finally decides to wipe up Arab asses? Do you think this will alter or fundamentally reset power relations in the region? The Arab world has to fight because it is their fight.

I’ll say also that it is China’s fight too. Because another takeaway for the hawks in the State department is not only that Russia will do nothing (in the Ukraine), so too will the Arab world (including Iran) do nothing. Ergo, it only stands to reason that if the US wants to start shit in Taiwan, China will also do nothing.

I think it is true! If the US begins operations to draw China into a wider conflict over Taiwan, what will China do? Based on the world-historical-geist thus far, it stands to reason that China will also take a go-slow approach, which is cover for, “We don’t want to escalate either!”

This will be hidden behind obfuscatory rhetoric of being the better nation and thus allowing the imperialists to die on their own sword. Pundits like Pepe Escobar will tell you this is all part of some grand strategy of a coming and inevitable multipolar world and that the decimation of Taiwan (in the wake of Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Sudan, Ukraine, and Palestine) is all part of the multipolar-world plan! All defeats and slaughter of innocent human populations in all these countries is just more evidence of a coming just and new world order!

How did we get here exactly? I mean, how did we get to be so trapped and cowardly in our own thinking and views about the world and its realities? I don’t have an answer. But I do know that the only real solution requires violence—i.e. risking the cataclysmic violence the imperialists are not afraid to risk only because they are certain the world, collectively, will back down.

I also believe we will continue to back down for many more years and decades to come. All this to say that I am in full agreement with Sheikh Imran Hosein’s eschatological prophecy that Israel will, in the near future, most certainly drop a nuclear weapon on the Arab world and wipe out 95 percent of the Arab population. After this act, the world won’t come to its senses and suddenly retaliate but likely cower further and accept that Israel is now sole arbiter in a new unipolar world. This is pretty much already the case, but it remains hidden. No reason to suppose this will remain hidden for much longer.
