He Used To Say Light Up The Oven

I used to know a guy who would throw his hands up in the air when provoked in a certain way and exclaim: “Light up the oven!” This habit deeply puzzled the people that met him for the first time because as you can imagine, they did not understand what he meant. They would ask why he who is a Jew was advocating the cremation of Jews in a manner that was reminiscent of the worst moments of the Holocaust. And he would explain that he was not advocating such a thing but was merely pointing out that the self appointed leaders of the Jews did something dumb. His aim was to warn that this sort of behavior will inevitably lead to the lighting up of the ovens and the holocausting of Jews like it used to happen in the bad old days.

A situation that would have irritated my Jewish acquaintance seriously enough to make him exclaim those words would be the reading of Tom Gross’s article in the December 3, 2009 issue of the Wall Street Journal. The article was published under the title: “Building Peace Without Obama’s Interference” and the subtitle: “A promising, Independent Palestine is quietly being developed, with Israeli assistance.” Had you been around my friend long enough to pick up his habit, and had you been reading the Tom Gross article, you too would have been provoked enough to throw your hands up in the air and exclaim: “Light up the oven!”

When you read this article you are hit in the face several times by statements that clearly show this man has reached a level of insanity equal only to the insanity of the editors who look for and run this sort of articles. But the hardest of the hits will have come because of an omission that was so glaring you could only despair at the inability of some people to cease doing the things that provoke violent responses from their fellow human beings. Let me explain. Like the title of the article indicates, the discussion is supposed to be about peace. And like the subtitle indicates, it is supposed to be about Palestine. Yet, the glaring thing is that not once in the article is there mention of how the Palestinian people want to see peace achieved. Instead, the article perpetuates the fantasy that the Palestinians feel good under Israeli occupation because they get “Israeli assistance” in one area of their existence or another. Tom Gross then warns, albeit in a subtle manner, that this newly developed relationship between the Palestinians and the Israelis may come to an end as a result of Obama’s interference.

Tom Gross begins the article this way: “It is difficult to turn on a TV … without finding some pundit … deploring the … dreadful living conditions of the Palestinians … Very little is changing for the Palestinian people on the ground, I heard [the] BBC … tell listeners three times in a 45 minute period the other evening …I had spent that day in the West Bank's largest city, Nablus … The city is bursting with energy, life and signs of prosperity, in a way I have not previously seen in many years of covering the region.” Further down the article, Tom Gross tells which day that was: “In Gaza too, the shops and markets are crammed with food and goods. But while photos from last Friday's Palestine Today newspaper, for example, depict sumptuous Eid celebrations, these are not the pictures you are ever likely to see on the BBC…”

So here it is, after many years of covering the region during which time he admits seeing what the BBC said the place looked like, Tom Gross now complains that the network has failed to mention that on one special day the Palestinians were determined to forget all their troubles so as to celebrate the festival of Eid, their most important religious holiday. Standing on this shaky ground, he then asserts that peace can come to Palestine if only Obama stopped interfering with a process that has the Israelis assist the Palestinians to plant strawberries. Of course as you would expect, Gross does not mention the fact that without the Palestinian farmer, the Jews of Israel would look like walking skeletons because they would be condemned to live on a mere 1000 calories a day which is all that their farmers manage to produce locally.

This is what the invaders who now call themselves Israelis did to the ancient Palestinian land of Milk and Honey which became the Palestinian portion of the Fertile Crescent which is now the land of Israeli desolation and toxic waste. And only when the Israelis were able to secure food assistance from Jordan, Egypt, Turkey and Lebanon (sometimes paid for by the Americans and sometimes by borrowed money guaranteed by America) did they begin to destroy what was left of the farms of Palestine which used to feed them almost free of charge. And to show the world how hideous they can be, they committed their wanton destruction by building an apartheid wall over and around the most fertile of those lands. Now this guy, Tom the grotesque, says that the Israelis are going to help the Palestinians do something that the latter have been doing better than anyone for thousands of years. Who is he kidding? Or must it again be: Light up the oven!

Anyone that has studied the modes of operation used by the Jewish leaders in Israel and in America will see right away that the Tom Gross article is but a continuation of the way that the Jewish organizations have been doing things for many decades now. Their aim is to get as much as they can from America so as to continue the occupation of Palestine, to ethnically cleanse the territory and to eventually annex it to Israel. In the meantime, they do everything they can to quash the possibility that what they receive may come with strings attached. Indeed, they want unlimited amounts of money, weapons, diplomatic backing and the exercise of the American veto in the Security Council to cover up the crimes they commit against humanity but they do not want the checks and balances that would temper their misuse of American largess.

Look how Gross ends the article: “Israelis and Palestinians may never agree on borders ... Not all Germans and French agree who should control Alsace Lorraine. Poles and Russians, Slovenes and Croats, Britons and Irish, and peoples all over the world, have border disputes. But that doesn't keep them from coexisting with one another...” Thus, when you read the entire article and you see this ending, you ask: How is it that the man reaches these conclusions? You then remember that he already answered the question so you back up a few paragraphs and reread this passage: “And perhaps most importantly of all, we had driven from Jerusalem to Nablus without going through any Israeli checkpoints …There was one border post on the return leg of the journey, on the outskirts of Jerusalem, but the young female guard just waved me and the two Palestinians I was traveling with, through.”

What he is saying here is that because on the day of the Eid festival the Israelis had relaxed the afflictions of the occupation, we must now believe that the Palestinians can be made to accept that their relationship with the Israelis is comparable to that which exists between the Germans and the French, the Britons and the Irish, and so on. It is clear from this that what Gross and those like him are incapable of grasping – perhaps because they are endowed with an inferior IQ -- is that such relationships exist between sovereign peoples where both sides accept the relationship because each side gets to be treated as the equal of the other. In drawing the moral equivalence between this relationship and the sort that exists between an occupying power and an occupied people such as it exists between Israel and Palestine, Tom Gross is saying something profoundly ugly. He is saying the thing that would make you throw your hands up in the air and exclaim: Light up the oven!

Indeed, on behalf of Israel and the Jewish organizations, Tom Gross and the Journal are saying that the Palestinians must accept the Israeli occupation as something normal because all that they can aspire to be is second class human beings. The border post on the outskirts of Jerusalem which was mentioned in the article was only manned at the Israeli side and not at both sides which would be the case if the two peoples were treated equally. But this is how Gross and the grotesque Journal that purports to cater to Wall Street want to keep things. Then, they turn around and urge the world to embrace this ugly reality and feel good about it because they claim that the Palestinians have so miraculously come to accept it. Did Obama’s interference cause this miracle? They don’t say so. And when you add to their sick delusion the empirical observation that when they begin something, it is always the first step on a slippery slope that ends with the oven being lit up to take in the Jews, you realize that a holocaust is quietly being fashioned that will consume not only the Jews but many others around the world.

What do Gross, Israel, the Jewish organizations and the Wall Street Journal recommend in the final analysis? In fact, they do more than recommend something; they assert the recommendation forcefully like this: “The truth is that an independent Palestine is now quietly being built, with Israeli assistance. So long as the Obama administration and European politicians don't clumsily meddle as they have in the past and make unrealistic demands for the process to be completed more quickly than it can be, I am confident the outcome will be a positive one.”

You can be certain that neither Tom Gross nor anyone believes a word of this. The history of the region and that of the world negate a positive outcome to a situation where one people occupy another. And no one, however challenged he or she may be, are ignorant of this fact. But this deception is designed to achieve the criminal outcome of ethnically cleansing Palestine and handing it to anyone who converts to what they fraudulently call the Jewish religion. Achieving their dream may be a positive outcome in the eyes of those who cannot live without provoking a holocaust but it is an ugly crime in the eyes of a world that is trying desperately to prevent the eruption of one. Please, do not provoke the lighting of the oven again; the human race cannot stomach another one of these episodes.

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to everyone. See you next year.

Moral Clarity To Stun George Orwell

The Brits are conducting an inquiry these days at the start of which a cat that was not well tucked into the sack was let out of the bag at long last. This was the great big secret that everyone knew existed even as those who were in charge of keeping it hidden were denying its existence. Here is the famous secret: Moments after Uncle Sam was kicked in the testicles by the kids he trained and equipped to chase the Soviets out of Afghanistan only to abandon them after they had accomplished their mission, that same uncle turned to the Jewish organizations in New York and Tel Aviv, and took orders from them as to what to do next.

Like masters, the Jewish leaders instructed the foolish uncle to stand for moral clarity in the style of the Talmud and to go kill Iraqis in their bedrooms and their underground shelters instead of dealing with the disgruntled kids he double-crossed in Afghanistan. And guess what happened next! You got it; the said uncle did exactly as instructed. And long before he was finished with the pathetic performance for which he took instructions, he stood on the deck of an aircraft carrier and congratulated himself as if he had accomplished some kind of a noble mission. Of course, he could not explain what exactly he had done because he had no clue what the mission was in the first place as he was totally confused about it. How confused was that? Well, there is an expression in twenty-first Century colloquial North-American English to describe such a situation. It goes like this: He did not know the difference between the mission and a hole in his anatomy. I let you imagine the rest.

George Orwell had a great deal to say about this sort of logic and that kind of behavior. For the readers who may be interested, the most telling of his addresses to humanity is contained in a novel he published in 1945 under the title “Animal Farm”. The novel was meant to serve as an allegory reflecting what Orwell surmised was going on inside the Soviet Union at the time with regard to the logic that animated the communist leaders in the Kremlin and their behavior on the world stage.

In the novel, the pigs overpower the drunken Mr. Jones. They kick him out of his farm, take control of it and put down 7 commandments to guide the other animals as to the principles of Animalism. These principles stand in contrast to Humanism which has come to symbolize human tyranny now considered to be the arch enemy of the animals. But when the exercise of power begins to corrupt the pigs who now rule the farm, and when they start to behave as badly as the humans did in their treatment of the other animals, the pigs find it convenient to amend the commandments so as to bring them in line with the tyranny they brought back to the farm and to justify it. The pigs continue to amend the commandments to keep up with the changing conditions on the farm but when they realize they cannot carry on with this charade much longer, they do away with the commandments altogether and replace them with the all encompassing dictum: “All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.”

The Jewish organizations too put down 7 commandments and handed them to Uncle Sam for enforcement. They are as follows:

Israel shall remain armed to the teeth at all time
No one in the region can be armed anywhere near adequate
Israel shall possess WMD and never declare them
No one in the region can posses WMD whether declared or not
Israel shall threaten to wipe out a neighbor or wipe them all out
No one can speak ill of Israel and stay in one piece
American suckers shall go broke and die enforcing these laws

But how does America translate such laws into policy?

Well, America is governed by a generation that was handed a country which was built into a lovable giant by the older generations. The nation used to be number one in agriculture, industry, commerce, technological innovation, scientific research and many other fields. The country had wealth and a high rate of savings that turned it into a creditor nation to the world. It was respected and consulted in every field of human endeavor by almost everyone on the planet. As a result, America had a military industrial complex that was second to none and a military that did not fight battles to win them because it could win without firing a shot.

Standing on this legacy, using the veto at the Security Council of the United Nations, exploiting its good standing to borrow from the Asians even as the country was going bankrupt and flexing its muscles to coerce the smaller nations, America managed to keep Israel afloat while suppressing every nation in the region that tried to raise its head above a level considered too high for Israel’s comfort.

And while this was going on, the Israelis used the most advanced of the American made smart bombs together with the planes and the helicopters that carried them, and they committed their usual crimes against humanity almost on a daily basis. They pinpointed the Palestinian women and children in their bedrooms, which the American weapons allowed them to do, and they blew them up in the middle of the night. This generated the material that fed the morning media in America which, in turn, recounted the gory stories to their audiences. And this type of stories made the Jewish leaders fantasize about an American population that danced in the streets before going to work and danced on its way there to celebrate the glory of Israel.

But the reality is that the ordinary people in America, like their counterparts everywhere, are never impressed with this Talmudic show of satanic horror. The only people that were impressed with Israel’s use of American weaponry were those in power and wished to hang on to it, and those who aspired to be in power and believed that the Jewish organizations will put them there if they kissed enough rear ends and did so with passion. Someone like the shameless Sarah Palin, for example, had the gall to go on television and congratulate the President for saying something good about Israel at one time but chided him for not saying it with enough passion. Make this woman commander-in-chief of the American armed forces -- which she wants to be -- and she will live and work for one purpose only: the pleasure of getting up in the morning to vacuum-kiss Jewish rear ends for breakfast. She might even invite the chiefs of staff of the American military to join her at the table and have their fill of koshered stuff before heading to the Pentagon and scheme to help destroy Israel’s neighbors or at least weaken them.

How did the Jewish organizations manage to fashion a soul that is as horribly disfigured as that of Sarah Palin? Well, to do this sort of thing, you must have a long term strategy and a bag of short term tactics. Let’s talk about the strategy. You accumulate four thousand years of experience with a litany of trial-and-error examples, some of which worked and some of which failed. When ready to start a new adventure, you take into account the fact that every epoch and every place have their peculiarities thus, you play the game with some flexibility as you keep adapting to the changing circumstances, and you emulate the examples that worked in the past. In the English speaking world, the best way to play the game is to do the sort of thing that would have stunned George Orwell, the thing that would make him turn in his grave.

For example, the Jewish organizations began their conquest of the English speaking world by “educating” the public and by “sensitizing” it to the effect that to criticize anything Jewish or Israeli was to be anti-Semitic. This meant that the culprit who would engage in such criticism would be calling for a holocaust that would do away with Jews in a final solution that would be truly final. At the same time, the organizations practiced the Yiddish discourse which consists of destroying by character assassination the people they want to see eliminated. This is easy to do when you are fluent in Yiddish because the language is not really a language but a dictionary of defaming invectives. Actually, you do not even have to speak Yiddish, you can only be familiar with the culture and you’ll do fine.

The leaders of the Jewish organizations practiced that discourse sometimes with humor, sometimes tongue-in-cheek and sometimes with deadly seriousness; all of which had the effect of confusing the public as to how it could push back against a situation that sickened it no end. Thus, at the end of the day, the net result of the drive to educate and to sensitize the public was that everyone who had the knowledge and the talent to criticize Israel was kept out of the English media while everyone who would kiss Jewish rear ends and support Israel was taken into the fold whether or not they had any talent.

And this was not all. While securing control of the media, the Jewish leaders accumulated the dirt on the Christian leaders of the televised church and a number of other personalities who were in the public eye. Letting all these people know they had the dirt on them, they blackmailed them into making it their preoccupation to go out and preach the Jewish narrative of boosting the splendors of Israel. To this end, they made them recite the talking points that flaunted the accomplishments of Israel however phony they were, and the worthiness of the Jewish causes however fraudulent they were. They got the church leaders to say that the Jews are gods who should be worshiped like Jesus. And they got the other personalities to sing the praises of Israel at the same time as they showered her enemies with demagogic fabrications that suited the moment. And to make it all look like it came from the heart -- or a foot below that -- they lit up a fire in the bellies of those characters before letting them go out and spread the new gospel; which they did with a passion that must have pleased the likes of Sarah Palin.

Let’s now talk about the tactics.

In every discussion they had, the Jewish leaders soft-pedaled the point that Jews must not be compared with someone else; and Israel must not be compared with another country. With this, they advanced the subtle point that Jews stand apart from everyone, and Israel stands apart from everything. When this is soaked in, which it always does by the force of incessant repetition, the audience is conditioned to accept the proposition that there is never a moral equivalence between what Israel does and what someone else does. Thus, Israel can commit any crime that someone else would commit but Israel can never be held accountable for the crime in the same way that someone else would be. In fact, one of the Jewish leaders made this assertion sometime ago and neither he nor they ever retracted it. “All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.” Now you know why George Orwell keeps turning in his grave.

Furthermore, because any possibility of a push back against this sort of atrocious logic was eliminated beforehand, the Jewish leaders could proceed to cement the notion that Israel has the right to defend itself on the mere suspicion that it may be attacked. It can do so by launching what it calls a pre-emptive strike against anyone with or without notice because the best defense is a good offense. And when Israel does it, the Jewish leaders fantasize about seeing the Americans dance in the street on their way to work to celebrate the glory of Israel.

Knowing all of this, it is now easy to understand how the Jewish leaders managed to get the American officials to judge the conduct of everyone on the planet and to ask for punitive action where they believe malfeasance was committed at the same time as they block the world from judging the conduct of Israel such as it happens all the time but more specifically as it happened with the Goldstone report which awaits being sent to the Security Council. Once again “All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.”

Now, listen to me America; you are making a big mistake taking ownership of Israel’s criminal activities. And remember this; believing that your finances were limitless you went bankrupt backing Israel’s every political and economic whim for decades. Likewise, believing that your moral standing is unshakable, you will soon find yourself in league with the likes of Pol Pot and other mass murderers if you continue to interchange your values with those of Israel or you merge them with those of the Jewish organizations whose only objective is to ethnically cleanse all of Palestine and to colonize it.

I say to you, America: Back off; you don’t have much left that can be used to boost the fake glory of Israel or to support the fraudulent Jewish causes. It is time that Israel and the Jews do what everyone does which is to win the respect and the affection of their neighbors and all human beings by dealing with people the way that ordinary humans do, not the way that the fake gods or the true disciples of Satan do.

And this is the sort of moral clarity that will let George Orwell rest in peace at long last.
