The situation in Israel and Gaza keeps getting worse, not better. This is a fact. Stop pretending it’s not. War tends to get worse before it gets better, also a fact. This is not a fucking game. There is a lot going on in internal US politics that we should be talking about. And we will. BUT…

The fact I cannot let go of the war in Israel has to do with the seriousness of the situation, and notice I wrote “war in Israel”, not just Gaza. Yesterday, Iran put Israel on notice it should expect a direct attack within 48 hours. There are constant terrorist attacks inside Israel, and along the green line zone in the West Bank. Hezbollah has been more and more active in the North. This could escalate to all out war at any minute.

There are still hostages in Gaza, 182 days into this crisis. Innocent lives are being lost every day. Hamas is still VERY active. And this is just over seas, while here at home, in the US, and around the world, antisemitism rises more each day. So no. I am NOT letting go of this subject. It’s not just important. It’s essential. And no, I am NOT a Jew.

Having watched how the Jewish population in the Old Continent dealt with the Nazi threat, I am only too aware of the “old Jew” mentality. Integrated into society, well established Jews had, for the most part, their guard down in the 1930s. After the Reichstag fire, Hitler made a speech that should have sent all Jews in Europe moving away from it. But they didn’t believe him. They thought he was playing politics, and war was still avoidable. They were very wrong.

“Today I will once more be a prophet: If the international Jewish financiers in and outside Europe should succeed in plunging the nations once more into a world war, then the result will not be the Bolshevization of the earth, and thus the victory of Jewry, but the annihilation of the Jewish race in Europe!” - Adolf Hitler

 

I can still hear those words, as Hitler barked them in the film registration of this speech…

“Die Vernichtung der jüdischen Rasse in Europa.”

Today, just as we did in the 1930s, we as a global community are downplaying a lethal threat to us all, for exactly the same reason. It seems to apply to Jews, alone. Well, I have some breaking fucking news for you: it applies to us all. Not just now; this has been growing for years, with very clear signs, of which 9/11 was but a small ripple, compared to what’s to come.

We must never forget to thank the Jewish people for being the canary in the coal mine, for the rest of us. Because that’s what they are. But they’re not just that, anymore. Unlike the 1930s, today Jews are not just the canary, they are the Lion. And they are our first line of defense.

I want you to go back to 2012 with me, and read an excerpt from a letter sent by the permanent representative of Israel to the UN to its Secretary General, at the time Ban Ki-moon, and the Presidency of its security council, then held by Morocco, on December 12, 2012, quoting Khaled Mashaal, the most senior member of Hamas at the time. This letter sounded the alarm as loud and urgently as possible, about the true objective of Hamas in Palestine.

In this letter, Ron Prosor, the Israeli representative, warned the United Nations, and thus the whole world about the ultimate goal of Hamas in the region.

 

“(…) Mashaal said again that Hamas seeks to wipe Israel off the map using terrorism and violence. He said, “Liberating Palestine, all of Palestine, is an obligation … the jihad and the armed resistance are the true and correct way to liberation.” Mashaal made clear that Hamas does not recognize Israel’s right to exist. He said, “Palestine - from the [Jordan] river to the [Mediterranean] sea, from the north to the south [i.e. all of Israel] - is our land … there will be no surrender of even the smallest piece of it … it is unthinkable that we would recognize the legitimacy of the Israeli occupation of it”.

Hitler’s Reichstag speech of January 1939, is perhaps the most remembered of his antisemitic outbursts, but just one among many others that were ignored. Mashaal’s speech of December 2012 is perhaps the most notorious, as it was brought to the attention of the UN, but only one among many others as well. And ever since, to this day, we pretend they are not serious, not real threats, just bravado politics. They don’t really mean that, Hamas is just talking shit, many of us think.

The new Jews don’t give a shit what “many of us think” anymore. And you know what? Good for them! If you think those of us who read the writing on the wall are overreacting, fuck you. I completely understand when Jews say they don’t care what the rest of us think about their right to exist, about their right to defend Israel, and about their right to destroy their enemies.

At first, as an ally I truly am, I was a little hurt they would state this resolve to go it alone, seemingly throwing all gentiles under the bus, but they are fucking right. They do NOT need our blessing, our permission, or even our understanding. They can and they will defend themselves. They will not be taken out. And they will fight. The reason for their determination in such terms comes from the sense of abandonment they felt in the past.

The few Jews who chose to fight back in Poland, in the Ukraine, and in other places during World War II, were looked down upon by local resistance movements, many times forsaken by them. And they got practically zero help from the allies. And as for the implementation of the resolution by the League of Nations to make good on the Balfour Declaration in Palestine after the war, we all know how well that went.

The British, who supposedly were in charge of the transition of their protectorate to Jewish hands, immediately gave up the Eastern part of Palestine to the Arabs, creating Jordan, but they had to be kicked out of the Western portion, so that Israel could finally exist. Talk about trust issues. Who wouldn’t have trust issues, with a history of betrayal such as the one the Jewish people have? How can anyone blame them?

As an ally to the Jewish people, I stand by them, I support them, and the right of Israel to exist, but I am well aware they do not require my support to stand up for themselves. They don’t want me to hide any of them in my basement. They don’t even want me to join them in the streets, to fight by their side. But I will, if it comes to that, and I am sure my support, and the support of millions like me, is appreciated. But make no mistake: it is not required.

The new Jews are not waiting around for us to come rescue them. And should these fuckers in the streets of America, claiming for intifada, try anything stupid, they will be met with a push back the likes of which the world has never seen. And they will run back to their mama’s basement, if they are lucky. This is not a drill. Many of us may be delusional about what is going on, but the Jews are not. The old Jews are gone.

As for the rest of us, we really need to pay attention to what the Lion is doing. Forget the canary in the coal mine, we already saw it, we should recognize what it means. Now watch the Lion fight for us. Because that’s what is going on. You want to know how bad this is, right now? Go and watch reel after reel of those who chant for global intifada in the streets of London, Paris, and New York. Not the dumbfucks, the other ones, the ones who know what this is about.

As they proclaim the destruction of Israel as a nation, and the extermination of all Jews, they reveal there’s more. Much more. And when asked about what that is, they no longer hide it. They have been saying it openly, in our cities, across Europe and America. The ultimate goal is the imposition of Islamic Law in the West, whether we like it or not. Period.

“Oh, shit! Here we go!”, many will say. “Oakie has joined the Cucamonga ranks! He’s lost it now!” I wish you were right. I really do. Boy, I would love to be proven wrong, on this one. But I am looking at a dead canary, and I am witnessing the rise of a fierce fighting Lion, and I understand what these signs mean to me. To all of us. We all better recognize them too, and join the fight. Not for the Jews alone. For our own lives.

Europe has it the worst. They have allowed, generously, humanely, millions of Muslims to live among them. As they should. We can’t stop being humane. We must always look after our brothers and sisters in need. We should take them in, and help them. Always. But there’s a catch. Our humanity and generosity should not be given at the expense of our freedom, our values, and ultimately our lives.

Think of it from a micro perspective. Your family, your home. When a storm hits, if you are lucky to endure and survive it, you should open your door to the less fortunate. You should care for them, and in return, they should help you. Their gratitude should be measured by how they repay you in kind. If they are welcomed to stay, they will improve your life, add value to it, make it better. If they choose to leave, they should take your kind example with them, so they may help others.

But what if they don’t? What if it’s all just a way to exploit your kindness, abuse your generosity, and use your humanity against you? Would you let them replace your values with theirs? Kick you out of your own home? Eventually pose a threat to you, as they start showing signs that is their objective? Knowing this, would you still keep them in your home, or would you get them out? Because that’s where we are.

I don’t even give a shit about religion, skin color, place of birth. I am talking about people who are acting like they want me to give way to their own vision of what my life should be, regardless of who I am, where I came from, or what I want for myself and my family. Yes, exactly what the Nazis did in Germany. We are witnessing the result of our foolish conception of power. The one our ancestors thought was best.

In a not so distant past, we thought the Muslims could be better exploited if they just stuck to their God, and left knowledge and development alone. This, we thought, would allow us to become so advanced technologically, they would never again not only pose a threat to us, but challenge our superiority and global designs. We were wrong. And look, the chicken have come home to roost.

Islamophobia is as dangerous as antisemitism, but we must all understand that we CANNOT allow either to make us look the other way when they threaten our very existence. Now take a look around and think about which poses an existential threat to you? The Jews or the Muslims? There are close to 16 million Jews in the world, today. As for Muslims, they are close to two BILLION. With a B. Granted, the vast majority of them both want to live their lives in peace, the best they can.

The threat comes from the radicals, the fanatic. Let’s not even look at studies and statistics, and wildly assume that only 5% of fanatical Jews and Muslims exist in the world, focusing ONLY on numbers, not philosophical, political, or religious considerations. In the whole wide world, there would then be 800 thousand fanatical Jews, and one hundred MILLION fanatical Muslims. Which do you think would pose a greater threat?

Now let’s look at fanatical intent, keeping those hypothetical numbers in mind. At their worst, fanatical Jews want to drive all Palestinians out of Palestine, and create a one state, greater Israel. That’s it. That’s the ultra radical Jewish wet dream. As for the intent of radical Islamists, they aim to replace all Western values with their own, forcing the world into a golden era of Islam. That’s the ultra fanatical Muslim wet dream. Which do you think poses an existential threat?

Europe is fucked. Between the Russian delusions of Empire from the East, and the growing radical Muslim fifth column, if they don’t wake the fuck up soon, they will be overrun. And this time they didn’t forget the British isles. I pray to God I am wrong, as much as I wish the needed awakening will not lead to right wing authoritarian rule over Europe, as some countries already started to extradite radical Muslims in droves.

The truth is there is no possible comparison between radical Judaism and radical Islam. Not in intent, and certainly not in numbers. And by the way, if you believe only 100 million Muslims are radical fanatics, I have a bridge to sell. The truth is we need to wake the fuck up and start thinking about the Islamic Jihad as a global threat, not in abstract, but right here, in our midst. We let the wooden horse inside the walls, and it’s not Greeks in its belly.

Spare me the Islamophobia schtick. This is not about deporting peace loving Muslims from our communities, most of the fucks shouting “Free Palestine” in our streets couldn’t point to Mecca if their lives depended on it. We are talking about two world views, one is openly tolerant and humane, the other is fanatically intolerant and inhumane. Pick a fucking side.

And as for the fucking Jews, if you can’t help them, get the fuck out of their way, and let them handle it. Because they fucking will, I shit you not. And in doing so, they may just be saving the rest of us fuckers, whether we like it or not.

 

Am Yisrael Fucking Chai.
