When you know that if you do something it will backfire and deliver the result you always said you dreaded, but you go ahead and do the thing anyway, you prove to the world that you had a change of heart or that you fell into a state of insanity.
This much can be said about the article that was written
by Jacob Nagel who is a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of
Democracies (FDD), a notorious Clifford D. May outfit. Nagel’s article came
under the title: “Patriot Missiles to Ukraine: Will Israel’s Iron Dome Follow?”
and the subtitle: “The war in Ukraine
has forced countries to clearly identify their national interests.” It was
published on December 23, 2022 in the National Interest.
What Jacob Nagel did, undoubtedly speaking in the name of
Clifford May and his Foundation, is that he tried to deceive the readers in a
manner that’s so insulting to their intelligence, the writer’s doing is bound
to backfire and go a long way toward the creation of a paradigm where denial of
the Holocaust will become commonplace. To understand why this will be the case,
you need to get familiar with how deceptions are used in the most subtle of
ways to spread disinformation.
Recall a time when you were watching your favorite
television show, and while absorbed by the scene, your attention was gently deviated
toward the image of a consumer product you normally see in paid-for
commercials. Well, that gentle deviation was also a paid-for commercial except
that the producers of the show decided to use the most subtle of methods to
advertise the product. They did so knowing that a subliminal message piggybacking
on your favorite show will have a greater impression on you than would an
ordinary commercial.
And this is precisely the method that Jacob Nagel has used
to resuscitate the long dead hoax that was once known as the Israeli Iron Dome.
It is that Jacob Nagel has piggybacked on the American decision to send Patriot
missiles to Ukraine, and spoke about the fictitious Iron Dome in the same
breath. He did all that as if the story of the Patriot and that of the Dome
were equivalent, maybe even interchangeable.
Look how deftly Jacob Nagel fashioned the nexus with
which he associated America’s decision to send the Patriot to Ukraine with
Israel’s potential move to do likewise with the Iron Dome. Here is the relevant
passage, reproduced in condensed form: “Biden announced one important change to US policy. Washington will now
send Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine. In some ways, the move also
puts a spotlight on Israel”.
Now that life has been breathed into the once dead Iron
Dome, Jacob Nagel began the task of restoring the respectability that was bestowed
dishonestly on the hoax at the start. To that end, the writer gathered the
false attributes that were conferred on the non-existent system, and bestowed
them anew on the resuscitated cadaver. And while doing that, Nagel started the false
discussion as to why Israel has refused to transfer the system to Ukraine. Here
is how he did all that:
“The country
refused to provide Ukraine with its Iron Dome air defense system, with its
more than 90 percent success rate intercepting rockets, missiles, and UAVs. The
reasons for Israel’s refusal are several. It harbors fears that if the system
were to be deployed, it would be captured by Russia on the battlefield. From
there, it will be sent to Iran for analysis. This could enable the regime to
find ways to counter the system in the battlespaces where Iran’s proxies and
Israel are squaring off. This would benefit Hezbollah, Hamas, and Palestinian
Islamic Jihad in future confrontations with Israel. The outgoing Israeli government
made clear this was not a risk it was willing to take. The new government will
probably say the same”.
Jacob Nagel went
on to say that Israel had three more reasons why it would not send its Iron
Dome to Ukraine — each of which is as phony a reason as the other. First: there
is a shortage of weapons, cried Nagel. But the truth is that shortage of
weapons has been an American concern developed by the fact that the country
handed weapons to its allies as if they were all threatened by someone. In
contrast, Israel had a year and a half since the last Gaza War to replenish its
arsenal of Iron Domes. If these things were real, there should be enough of them
by now to send to Ukraine and defend Israel against a Hamas attack. But they
are not real, which is the reason why they could not be given out. This is what
the Ukrainians have learned. It is why their President expressed profound
contempt for the Israeli government, and why Jewish Central declared him to be
an excommunicated non-Jew.
And when the American military said it will take time to
train the Ukrainians to use the Patriot, Nagel popped up out of nowhere, and
said it will take even more time to train the Ukrainians to use the Iron Dome.
That’s how he became phony in the superlative. Lastly, Nagel said that Israel
did not want to upset the Russians by arming the Ukrainians. But Israel always
said the Iron Dome was a defensive weapon designed to save lives, which is
something that the Russians say they are for. Their objection concerned the
supply of long range missiles that can hit the Russian homeland – and the Iron
Dome, even if it existed, never pretended to do that.
It should be clear by now that Jacob Nagel’s discussion
had one objective: To make the world believe that the nonexistent Iron Dome
does exist, and that it needs a permanent stream of cash from America to continue
existing. And this, my friend, is how hoaxes are created and maintained using disinformation.
Well, the Israelis may convince the American Congress of
fools that they are telling the truth. But the American public, like the rest
of the world, is not buying this garbage. What’s happening instead, is that
people everywhere are waking up to the possibility that if the Jews would go
this far to make you believe a hoax is true, could it not be that the Holocaust
is a hoax maintained alive by disinformation?
