“Almost all people of all eras are hypnotics. The proper authorities saw to it that the proper belief should be induced, and people believed properly.”
— Charles Hoy Fort
“Dr. Elias Jarade is an Orthodox Christian member of Parliament from south Lebanon, Jarade defeated a Hezbollah politician in 2022 as part of a list of candidates seeking to break down sectarian divides….that changed after Israel used booby-trapped pagers to attack Hezbollah leaders two years ago. Jarade, an eye surgeon, was horrified by the gruesome injuries he saw in civilian patients and disgusted by Israel’s celebratory response to the attack, which injured thousands.
“They congratulate Netanyahu for what he has done…Let them come see the children, the elderly, that were blinded by these pagers. How come you are congratulating them? You know what the impact will be. There are two crimes that happened at the same time, the pager attack and the silent attitude of the whole world.” (Cf. Lydia Polgreen, “Lebanon Is Fed Up,” New York Times, June 3).
The celebrated pager attack of 2024, considered by the US media as a masterstroke of retribution against terrorists, reminds me of the equally applauded assassination of Ali Khamenei, Supreme Leader of the Islamic regime along with nine other Iranian leaders on February 28. What was not reported in any detail was the fact that this bombardment also killed several members of Khamenei’s family, including Zahra Haddad-Adel, wife of Mojtaba Khamenei; Mesbah Bagheri Kani (the husband of Hoda Khamenei); as well as Ayatollah Khamenei’s 14-month-old granddaughter, Zahra Mohammadi Golpayegani. Mansoureh Khojasteh Bagherzadeh, wife of Ali Khamenei was severely wounded.
Imagine the colossal fury that would have erupted in the American media had the Iranians bombed Netanyahu’s house and in addition to killing him and his military commanders and security and nuclear officials, also caused the deaths of their wives and his grandchildren. Persian life however, is cheap and the family members killed by Netanyahu and Trump are not mourned in America, nor are the 175 school girls we killed in Minab at the start of our mass bombardment.
The ferocity of the daily Israeli holocaust proceeds apace with only the faintest sidelong glance from the American media. There are many reasons for this racist myopia. Among the most telling is the Babylonian Talmud’s low view of gentiles as nefesh-deficient — less than human.
Shortly after lunchtime on April 8, Israeli fighter jets pummeled the Lebanese capital Beirut and other parts of the country. They struck densely populated areas without warning. Residents had no time to flee as missiles rained down on crowded neighborhoods that were once considered safe. At least 182 people were killed and around 900 wounded in the attacks.
If, instead of indiscriminately killing Lebanese civilians, the victims were Americans or Israelis, the daily kill totals would be a cause for a five-alarm fire in the editorial rooms and government offices of the West. Everything would stop, nothing would matter, nothing would be comparable to the fury the routine slaughter of Americans and Israelis would elicit. Every time we drove to the grocery store, watched television, tuned to the radio and Internet — photographs, videos, headlines and editorials would be emblazoned with images and texts presenting in horrific detail the atrocities.
At fever pitch and with relentless urgency we would be morally challenged by a question that would confront us in a hundred venues every hour of every day, ‘What are you doing to stop this 21st century Holocaust?’
Because it is Arabs who are being holocausted and because the perpetrators are Churchianity’s manufactured Holy People, human responses to the American-funded and supplied mass murder in Lebanon and Gaza are almost totally absent from the media of mass communication.
This is a Talmudic state of affairs. The “proper authorities” have seen to it that the bigotry of the Talmud of Babylon is not only etched into the press and our educational institutions but ingrained in our collective psyche without any of us having so much as sneaked a peak at a single page of the Talmud. Our rapacious elites have done so for us. The result of their study is the curtain of silence that envelops the shedding of oceans of Arab blood.
The Israelis will not only bomb an entire Lebanese apartment building filled with dozens or hundreds of people with the justification that there were two Hezbollah fighters sheltering there, they kill the ambulance workers who arrive to treat the victims of the Zionist terror attack:
“I headed inland toward Nabatieh, a city nestled among rocky hillsides that Israeli strikes had pummeled for weeks despite the cease-fire. Suddenly, I was in the only car on the road, speeding past shuttered storefronts and ghostly piles of rubble. Almost everyone had left, heeding Israeli evacuation orders.
“I drove to a hilltop hospital to speak with the skeleton crew of medical workers that remained behind, tending to those who were unable to flee or who chose not to. Among them was a paramedic named Hussein Dakdouk. A few days before, he told me, in the aftermath of an (Israeli) airstrike, a man pulled up to the paramedics’ headquarters, his leg badly injured by the blast. Two paramedics rushed toward the man with their emergency gear, and Dakdouk ran to the ambulance to prepare it to transport the man to the hospital. As he turned the key in the ignition, he saw a rocket tear into his colleagues.
“I saw them being blown into pieces,’ he said.
“Two medics and a member of the administrative staff were killed in the strike, he said, three of more than 116 people killed by Israeli strikes on health-care facilities since March, according to the World Health Organization. Rescue workers and journalists across southern Lebanon have been killed in so-called ‘double tap’ strikes, in which an Israeli rocket hits a target, and then another rocket is fired once people arrive to provide medical aid and document the scene. Such strikes were a hallmark of the Gaza war. “Whenever separate previous incidents follow the same pattern, this makes us believe that this is not something random that is happening,” Dakdouk told me.

In terms of its coverage of Talmudism, Zionism and Israeli warfare, the vast majority of the articles in the Times are supportive and appear in its news pages. Rare essays like the preceding one by Polgreen and last month’s exposé of Israeli prison rape by Nicholas Kristof which are unfavorable to the Israeli narrative, are published largely with the intent of salvaging the humanitarian image of the newspaper and serve as a token propitiation of the concerns of its social justice readership. These sparse essays usually appear on the paper’s less authoritative opinion page, which is the case with the writing by Polgreen and Kristof.
In almost every other respect the New York Times upholds Zionism and fails abysmally to adequately report the genocide in Gaza and the mass murder in Lebanon, while stoking contrived hysteria over “The rising tide of anti-Semitism sweeping America.”
Call to Execute Writers
On May 11, Emory University Prof. Deborah Lipstadt, a World War II researcher who served as Joe Biden’s U.S. Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (she swore her oath of office on a copy of the Talmud), appeared to endorse Adam Louis-Klein’s apparent veiled threat against New York Times personnel for having published Kristof’s report.
On “X” Mr. Louis-Klein wrote, “Julius Streicher, the editor of the Nazi propaganda rag Der Stürmer was convicted of crimes against humanity at Nuremberg for inciting hatred and violence against Jews. He was hanged in 1946…One day soon, history will render the same verdict on antizionism…the contemporary form of Jew-hatred. And when that day comes the New York Times will face a long over-due reckoning. Because we are documenting it all.”
Nine days after Prof. Lipstadt’s seeming endorsement of an alleged call to see New York Times personnel hanged for “Jew-hate,” the Times mentioned nothing about it and quoted her positively as part of its anti-Semitism delirium, overlooking her approbation for Louis-Klein’s outburst. The paper’s reporters, Lisa Lerer and Jennifer Medina wrote:
Moments after he learned his nearly 14 years in Congress were coming to an end, Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky offered an explanation for his defeat rooted not in his state but thousands of miles east.
“I would have come out sooner, but I had to call my opponent and concede, and it took a while to find Ed Gallrein in Tel Aviv,” he told cheering supporters at his election-night party, referring to the Republican who beat him.
The comment was a clear reference to the millions of dollars spent against Mr. Massie, a longtime critic of Israel and more recently of the war with Iran, by prominent pro-Israel donors and advocacy groups, including a super PAC tied to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
…Mr. Massie’s remark was the latest to strike a nerve among some Jewish leaders, who argue that politicians and their supporters have repeatedly blurred the lines between opposition to Israel and antisemitic tropes about Jewish money and power.
The prominence of such comments in politics — particularly after a series of antisemitic attacks— is alarming and potentially dangerous, they say.
“This is at warp speed, unlike anything I have ever seen,” said Deborah Lipstadt, a Holocaust scholar at Emory University who served as the Biden administration’s special envoy to fight antisemitism. “This is the mainstreaming and normalizing of antisemitism.”
