Hello Eli; A sincere heartfelt tribute performed by U2 for those brutally murdered while attending the Super Nova festival. It takes real heroes from all walks of life to rise up & make their voices heard. To call out the evil of those who would commit these atrocities. Prayers to all the victims who have suffered this terror. Your friend, Tina
An emotional tribute by U2 indeed, Tina. But do you think it takes a hero to choose good upon evil and to say it out loud? Unfortunately, not many famous world artists have decided to do so, for one reason or another… Thank you for your prayers, Tina. You are a true friend. Eli from Israel
Thank you U2...lifting up and celebrating our kind of people, through super-music; our hearts with those poor victims, those celebrating that day...celebrating God, through love and creativity...for the good. God bless Bono and U2.
Very nice moment Eli. It makes me so happy when musicians acknowledge these terrible situations. I also hope that the families of anyone who lost someone finds peace. I do not like wars of any kind. I truly hope that there is some kind of end to all of this soon. I am thinking of you and your family. Stay safe Eli~ Rob/Boston
It makes me happy too, Rob. I wish more musicians would do it. I am still waiting for Morrissey to do so. In the past he confirm his support for Israel and its people (In the song “Israel” for example). Oh how I hate wars, Rob. Our actual existence is threatened by wars. That is why our military name is: I.D.F. = Israel DEFENCE Force. Unfortunately, our neighbours don’t want us living here. Or living at all. Maybe if you think about Al-Qaeda or ISIS you would understand - but for us its not a remote threat… and the sheer evil… and as Bono said and sang: the kids just wanted to celebrate music and peace… Thank you again for thinking about me and my family my dear friend. It’s comforting and uplifting in this troubled time. Eli from Israel

(Google translate) Mi dispiace dirlo, ma non ne sai nulla. Il 7 ottobre è stato il momento clou di una serie di brutali attacchi terroristici contro Israele da parte di Hamas per molti anni. Lo stupro di giovani donne, la decapitazione di bambini e il rapimento di sopravvissuti all'Olocausto e di altri a Gaza per essere tenuti in ostaggio in costante tortura fino a questo momento, è l'attacco più orribile contro gli ebrei dai tempi dell'Olocausto. La risposta di Israele è adeguata perché Hamas ha costruito un hub di tunnel terroristici sotterranei per lanciare missili sulla popolazione civile israeliana senza confini di sorta e utilizzando la popolazione civile di Gaza (che secondo tutti i sondaggi la stragrande maggioranza di loro sostiene Hamas) come scudo umano. Persino la Corte internazionale dell’Aia ha rifiutato di accogliere le accuse contro Israele in tale materia. Bono e gli U2 sanno chi ha ragione e chi ha torto.

Why are you swearing? If you would know history, then you would know that MLK would’ve support this Irishman’s version. But you are right. You’re not bright at all…
Everyone should read it: The Virtuous Antisemitism of Campus Protests Against Israel (Part 1) Eva Illouz May 21, 2024 The left that calls itself "woke" is demonstrating in the streets and on campuses around the world to demand a "free Palestine," which means, in many cases, the simple elimination of Israel. These protests, it should be stressed, are very different from the demand for a political solution to the agonizing conflict that divides Israelis and Palestinians. The protesters have often embraced and celebrated Hamas, a fundamentalist terrorist organization; they advocate severing ties with Israel, a very imperfect democracy, but a democracy nonetheless. They dub Israel an apartheid state and call for it to be dismantled, a call never heard before, not even for aggressively imperialist Russia, genocidal Rwanda, or for that matter, South Africa itself. The idea that Jews threaten the world is deeply embedded in Western culture, so deeply in fact that this category is automatically evoked when the Israeli state sometimes breaks the law, as many states around the world do. A fierce military response facing unprecedented challenges in the history of warfare - because of a highly densely populated urban area, an underground city built below a civilian population - has become in the eyes of many a bona fide case of genocide. Protesters have also often kindly invited Israelis to go back to Brooklyn and Poland. To complete the picture, Israel - a state born out of the ashes of the Holocaust - is now equated with Nazism; that is, the ultimate human evil. Jews, Zionists and moderate people from all political parties and religions have watched the campus protests unfold in amazement, unable to believe the unselfconscious double standards, the baselessness of the historical parallels, the unprecedented intensity of the animus for far-away events. (Remind me, when was the last time anyone protested with the same intensity against Iran's oppressive regime, against China's genocide of the Uyghurs?) Despite the students' desperate attempts to depict themselves as similar to the 1968 protests, they are very far from the anti-Vietnam War movement and its authentic revolutionary spirit. A conflict that has been dubbed by many as the most intractable and complex on the planet is treated as if it were another version of American imperialism. Faced with the demonstrators' disarticulation of words and the reality of this century-old conflict, these protests give me no choice but to ask myself if, after all, something like the phantasmagoric irrationality of antisemitism is at work here. There has been a lively debate on whether these protests are antisemitic. Three arguments have been mobilized against this accusation - that many of the demonstrators are Jews, that this accusation aims to silence legitimate political dissent, and that anti-Zionism is legitimate (a matter of opinion toward a state), while antisemitism is not (a negative attitude toward a group). None of these arguments hold water. One of the woke left's most precious contributions to our political landscape has been its claim that sexism and racism do not only exist in the conscious mind and in the intentions of sexists and racists, but in unconscious cultural layers we all bathe in. This is the reason why "giving a compliment" to a woman about her figure is considered sexist today, despite the good intentions of the compliment giver. ("I just wanted to be nice!") The woke left has consistently argued that racism and sexism deposit themselves in images, in words' connotations, in mental associations, all of which perpetuate domination, exclusion, hierarchy. This is why the woke left wants to police speech, precisely because language and culture contain these sedimented layers hiding diverse forms of domination beyond conscious intentions. It's no surprise that the young people who all over the world are calling for the dismantling of the State of Israel do not consider themselves antisemites. If that is true of women, Muslims and Black people, it is all the more true of the group that has been the object of the oldest hatred of Western culture, the Jews. Let us then apply to antisemitism the tenets of the woke left and ask if these demonstrators are bathing in profoundly antisemitic cultural meanings. What does the strange irrational hatred called antisemitism consist of? I am not a historian of this vast topic, but personally I define it as the theory that holds Jews responsible for the spilling of the blood of non-Jews. Thus, I do not think Christian anti-Judaism stems from a competition between two faiths claiming their theological primacy. (Christians call this verus Israel or supercessionism.) Belief systems and religions have no problem discarding whoever preceded them and viewing their version as the first and only true theology. Antisemitism much more likely stems from one key Christian belief - that Jews were guilty of the worst crime of all, the deicide: killing God himself.
(Part 2) The Book of Matthew says as much. Pilate, the Roman governor who had been mandated by the Jews to execute Jesus, claims: "I am innocent of this man's blood." The Jewish crowd responds: "His blood be on us and our children," known in Christian theology as the blood curse. Christian iconography abundantly represented Jesus' blood on the cross. The image of blood, when associated with the sacrificial death of a compassionate son of God, is likely to have struck the imagination of Christians all the more because this image widely reverberated throughout the centuries. In a world where Christian paintings were the only visuals and were accompanied by the shocking narrative of God's murder, Jews could only appear as a group conspiring to throw the world into chaos and suffering. It is therefore unsurprising that in the 12th century, especially in France and England, Jews were accused of killing Christian children in order to use their blood for baking Passover matza. In a world where Christian paintings were the only visuals and were accompanied by the shocking narrative of God's murder, Jews could only appear as a group conspiring to throw the world into chaos and suffering. The drawing of blood was not their only crime. Jews were said to poison wells and desecrate the host, the Communion bread, one of the gravest offenses for Catholics. Jews fared even worse with Luther's Protestantism. The title of his book "On the Jews and Their Lies" gives it away. He viewed Jews as liars, idolaters, thieves and robbers. He recommended that they be expelled, their homes razed, their schools and synagogues burned. Thus the idea that dominated Christian culture, at least until the Enlightenment, is that Jews are criminals, outside the law and intent on destroying whatever is worthwhile. This is so much the case that 18th-century philosopher Gotthold Ephraim Lessing wrote "Die Juden" to make the (then radical) point that Jews could be as moral as any other person. Twentieth-century anti-modern and antidemocratic ideologies amplified the view of Jews as a fundamentally criminal group. In Russia, the 1903 "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion" warned that Jews were plotting to control the world in order to destroy it, the secular equivalent of the deicide. As historian Michael Berkowitz has further argued, the view that Jews were criminals constituted a significant dimension of Nazi antisemitism. (See his book "The Crime of My Very Existence: Nazism and the Myth of Jewish Criminality.") Communists and anarchists were viewed as dangerous criminals and threats to the social order, with Jews the most dangerous among them. Jews were also parasites and leeches, animals that suck blood. French writer Louis Celine, an enthusiastic Nazi sympathizer, called the Jews the most ferocious and corrosive parasites. In the Soviet Union the 1953 "doctors' plot" - a conspiracy theory in which physicians, most of them Jewish, were accused of planning to kill top Soviet leaders - made the link with Zionism. Doctors, who spill blood as part of their profession, were accused of poisoning Soviet leaders. As Pravda put it, "The filthy face of this Zionist spy organization, covering up their [the Jewish doctors'] vicious actions under the mask of charity, is now completely revealed." One year earlier, in 1952, the antisemitic Slánský trial in Czechoslovakia against Jewish members of the Communist Party also called the defendants "Zionist-imperialist." These carefully crafted words were enough to send them to their execution. The connection between Jewish criminality and Zionism, antisemitism and anti-Zionism was made by the Soviet Union and slowly penetrated the rest of the world. (It is exactly this tactic that Vladimir Putin used when he called the Ukrainians "Nazis.") This would be amplified by Arab propaganda, which opposed Jewish nationalism (Zionism) by using the same antisemitic tropes. The Soviets' involvement in the Middle East after World War II consolidated the amalgam that Muslims drew between antisemitism and anti-Zionism. A 1948 Arab League report submitted to the United Nations was called "Jewish Atrocities in the Holy Land." The title aimed to evoke Christian sentiment, and its content was a compendium of the most virulent antisemitic tropes: Jews were not fighting a war but were barbaric murderers of innocent women and children. And these Jews were now called "Zionists." Israelis are held to a different standard because it is almost impossible to separate them from the old category of Jews as criminally threatening the world order. A number of important points derive from all of the above. Antisemites nourish a hatred of Jews, who are depicted as threats to the moral order. Antisemitism does not feel primarily like hatred of a group. Once Jews are portrayed as a dangerous entity that spills blood, ignores laws and wreaks carnage, antisemitism becomes the ideology of humanity, morality, order and law, what the great Austrian essayist Jean Améry called virtuous antisemitism. Antisemitism elicits intense moral fervor and passion precisely because Jews are viewed as a danger to humanity. It's no surprise then that the young people who all over the world are calling for the dismantling of the State of Israel do not consider themselves antisemites. They can deny Israelis their right to existence (a right not denied any other people on Earth) because they are passionately defending the survival of the world threatened by a thug state whose criminality is viewed as unique and uniquely threatening. No other state violence elicits the moral outrage that Israel's does. No other country triggers such an urge among well-meaning people defending morality for that country to be eliminated.
(Part 3) The idea that Jews threaten the world is deeply embedded in Western culture, so deeply in fact that this category is automatically evoked when the Israeli state sometimes breaks the law, as many states around the world do. There is no doubt that in recent decades, Israel has acted in defiance of international law (and its own as well), and that its military response in Gaza has been disproportionate and brutal. But I have trouble believing that under the same circumstances other countries would have acted differently. In light of its history, I am betting that the response of the United States, for example, would have been far more devastating. (Just remember the Americans' horrifying response to their October 7, the attack on Pearl Harbor.) Israel has not proved worse than humanity's dismal historical record. Perhaps it has even been better.
Students and activists unroll a Palestinian flag as they set up a tent camp in the courtyard of the Statale University in Milan, Italy, Friday, May 10, 2024.Credit: Luca Bruno,AP Yet Israelis are held to a different standard because it is almost impossible to separate them from the old category of Jews as criminally threatening the world order. When Zionism is made synonymous with radical evil, it is because cognitively and emotionally we cannot disconnect Israelis and Jews, Israeli crimes (ordinary in humanity's sad history) and the deep cultural sense that Jews are dangerous for the world. Let me provide an analogy. It would be difficult to separate the concept of "skirt" or "dress" from the concept of "woman." Even if we know that Scottish men sometimes wear skirts or that Muslim men wear robes that resemble long dresses, "skirt" and "dress" inevitably invoke femininity, not masculinity. Zionists and Jews are inextricably linked following a similar cognitive logic. It is very difficult to disentangle the two even if we know that not all Jews are Zionists and not all Zionists are Jews. (A 2021 Pew poll found that a majority of U.S. Jews view Israel as part of their identity, suggesting that the two are deeply intertwined.) While empirically "Jews" and "Zionists" can sometimes be distinct, they cannot be separated in mental representations and are connected in a quasi-automatic way. When the young protesters express their wish to eliminate Israel, they also express the wish to annihilate the Jews living in Israel. As for the claim that if Jews participate in a movement, that movement is exempted from the accusation of antisemitism, this is also an old trope cultivated by the Soviets. (Some Jewish communists in the Soviet Union persecuted other Jews.) As feminists or African Americans will surely tell you, some women and African Americans hold sexist or racist ideas. Since the 18th century, Jews have tried to belong to their culture and society in the Diaspora, and anti-Zionism has been one route for membership, whether in the Soviet Union or the West. Early 20th-century Jewish anti-Zionism was a legitimate opinion in debates on the role nationalism should play in Jewish existence. But the meaning of anti-Zionism today has vastly shifted and is no longer a theoretical discussion on the best strategy for survival. Anti-Zionism has been appropriated by a variety of political actors who use it to legitimize their intent to eliminate the state of the Jews. All of the above is catastrophic not only for us Jews or us Israelis, but for the Palestinians as well. Israelis were gruesomely attacked on October 7, and they interpret the protests around the world as deeply antisemitic. This reinforces in Israelis the feeling that the world intends to destroy them and that they can count only on military force to protect themselves. The military race to deterrence diverts Israelis further from a political path that offers Palestinians dignity and sovereignty. It makes Israelis acquiesce more easily to the decisions by a horrific government bent on destroying every shred of democracy in Israel. Instead of helping create broad coalitions to demand a just peace for Israelis and Palestinians, instead of uniting Palestinians and dovish Zionists to search for sanity, the protests around the world create unprecedented divisions, mistrust and enmity between people who should otherwise have been allies. The result will be to erase an already very weak peace camp. Never has morality been such an enemy of the good.

@@MrElirecords you forgot 75 years of illegal occupation and all the persecutions and injustices of the palestinians... being a Zionist means being equal to those who persecuted you in the past! Free Palestine
@@user-zd9yp3di4d So you haven't seen the video... Indeed, the conflict did not start on the 7th Oct. But it not even started 75 years ago. It started more than 100 years ago, when Jewish immigrants came to the land of Israel and started to build their ancient homeland (It was controlled by the Muslims after they invade it brutally in the 7th century and later was controlled by the Ottomans. Before the establishment of the state of Israel, it was held by the British according to a League of Nations mandate). The Palestinian population (mostly came to the land in the 19th century) did not see the Jewish aspiration (Zionism) in a good way and started waves of pogroms against the Jews of the land in 1920/1, 1929 and between 1936 to 1939 in which many Jews were killed by terrorist acts. In order to defend its population, the Jews established a defense force (The Haggana - The Defense), which later became the IDF. While the UN decide upon the partition of the land in 1947 to 2 independent states: Jewish state & Palestinian state, the Jews accept it and the Palestinians didn’t (not for the first time and not for the last…) and started a war against the Jews of the land (and later in collaboration with the invasion of the neighboring Arab countries to the new state of Israel). The result was the win of Israel against its enemies and the start of the Palestinian refugees problem - that all of them were under control by the Arab states. Only after 6 days war of 1967 (That was inflicted upon the region due to the threats of the Arabs to throw to the sea the people of Israel), Israel became to control the Palestinian territories. After many years of terrorist aggression by the PLO (like murdering the Israeli delegation to the 1972 Olympics or kidnapping planes and many more atrocious attacks like this), the Oslo accord of 1993 tried to reconcile the 2 sides into a peace process by Israel giving the Palestinians a self-rule in their territories. But instead of being a good neighbor, the “Refuse Front” of Hamas and the Islamic Jihad, refused to recognize Israel existence and engaged in atrocious terrorist suicide attacks. Even after Israel complete withdrawal from Gaza (and the self-destruct of Jewish settlements there) Hamas brutally gained control of the area and start rocketing Israeli civilians. The Palestinian refused (as always) to a finishing settlement of the conflict in 2006-2008 which gave them 98% of the territories including control over most of east Jerusalem. Anyway, Hamas built terrorist tunnels all along the Gaza area and on the 7th Oct launched the most brutal attack against the Jews since the Holocaust. So, you support the acts of raping young women, beheaded babies and abducting Holocaust survivors and others to become hostages in Gaza to this day… Bono knows best. You don’t
After reading your comment I got cholera... Raping young women, beheaded babies and abducting Holocaust survivors and others to Gaza to suffer torture to this minuet - was the call of that day.

I truly hope that there is some kind of end to all of this soon. I am thinking of you and your family. Stay safe Eli~

In the past he confirm his support for Israel and its people (In the song “Israel” for example). Oh how I hate wars, Rob. Our actual existence is threatened by wars. That is why our military name is: I.D.F. = Israel DEFENCE Force. Unfortunately, our neighbours don’t want us living here. Or living at all. Maybe if you think about Al-Qaeda or ISIS you would understand - but for us its not a remote threat… and the sheer evil… and as Bono said and sang: the kids just wanted to celebrate music and peace…

The allegations you mention about Hamas's supposed atrocities have in many instances been debunked and/or withdrawn even by the State of Israel. That you still believe and quote the most false of them undermines your credibility. That you support as a response to the crimes of Hamas the ongoing slaughter of, so far, at least 30,000 Palestinian people, the majority of whom are women and children, destroys your moral seriousness as much as anything could. Hamas, despite its heinous crimes on 7th October (and because Israel refuses to allow the ICC to investigate, the facts are far from clear), is a legitimate resistance organisation, even though I do not share its theocratic goals nor its religious beliefs any more than I do the goals and beliefs of the Israeli occupation forces.

You need an explanation - Here goes:
I'm a second generation Holocaust survivor that was born in Israel. My dad immigrated to Israel in 1948 as a refugee with nothing on him but his cloths. My mother is a 5 generation native in the land of Israel. So I am a true Zionist - the movement of the Jewish aspiration to be free and safe in their ancient homeland.
I'm sorry that you had bad experience in Israel. I myself object to the extreme settlers in the West Bank (I'm a center left voter), but that doesn't mean that you can compere them to the extremists on the other side. The Palestinian extremists are butchers and wants to kill all the Jews in Israel (look at their charter). They have much support among the Palestinian population.
Anyway, Hamas using the civil Gaza population as human shield and hide behind schools, hospitals and mosques to deliver his brutal terrorist attacks and missiles on Israel. What would you do in this situation? "Turn the other cheek" as Christianity tells us? The Jews tried it once (without any choice, really) in the past during WW2 and everybody knows where it got us...

Mi dispiace dirlo, ma non ne sai nulla.
Il 7 ottobre è stato il momento clou di una serie di brutali attacchi terroristici contro Israele da parte di Hamas per molti anni.
Lo stupro di giovani donne, la decapitazione di bambini e il rapimento di sopravvissuti all'Olocausto e di altri a Gaza per essere tenuti in ostaggio in costante tortura fino a questo momento, è l'attacco più orribile contro gli ebrei dai tempi dell'Olocausto.
La risposta di Israele è adeguata perché Hamas ha costruito un hub di tunnel terroristici sotterranei per lanciare missili sulla popolazione civile israeliana senza confini di sorta e utilizzando la popolazione civile di Gaza (che secondo tutti i sondaggi la stragrande maggioranza di loro sostiene Hamas) come scudo umano.
Persino la Corte internazionale dell’Aia ha rifiutato di accogliere le accuse contro Israele in tale materia.
Bono e gli U2 sanno chi ha ragione e chi ha torto.

Everyone should read it:
The Virtuous Antisemitism of Campus Protests Against Israel (Part 1)
Eva Illouz
May 21, 2024
The left that calls itself "woke" is demonstrating in the streets and on campuses around the world to demand a "free Palestine," which means, in many cases, the simple elimination of Israel. These protests, it should be stressed, are very different from the demand for a political solution to the agonizing conflict that divides Israelis and Palestinians.
The protesters have often embraced and celebrated Hamas, a fundamentalist terrorist organization; they advocate severing ties with Israel, a very imperfect democracy, but a democracy nonetheless. They dub Israel an apartheid state and call for it to be dismantled, a call never heard before, not even for aggressively imperialist Russia, genocidal Rwanda, or for that matter, South Africa itself.
The idea that Jews threaten the world is deeply embedded in Western culture, so deeply in fact that this category is automatically evoked when the Israeli state sometimes breaks the law, as many states around the world do.
A fierce military response facing unprecedented challenges in the history of warfare - because of a highly densely populated urban area, an underground city built below a civilian population - has become in the eyes of many a bona fide case of genocide. Protesters have also often kindly invited Israelis to go back to Brooklyn and Poland. To complete the picture, Israel - a state born out of the ashes of the Holocaust - is now equated with Nazism; that is, the ultimate human evil.
Jews, Zionists and moderate people from all political parties and religions have watched the campus protests unfold in amazement, unable to believe the unselfconscious double standards, the baselessness of the historical parallels, the unprecedented intensity of the animus for far-away events. (Remind me, when was the last time anyone protested with the same intensity against Iran's oppressive regime, against China's genocide of the Uyghurs?)
Despite the students' desperate attempts to depict themselves as similar to the 1968 protests, they are very far from the anti-Vietnam War movement and its authentic revolutionary spirit. A conflict that has been dubbed by many as the most intractable and complex on the planet is treated as if it were another version of American imperialism.
Faced with the demonstrators' disarticulation of words and the reality of this century-old conflict, these protests give me no choice but to ask myself if, after all, something like the phantasmagoric irrationality of antisemitism is at work here.
There has been a lively debate on whether these protests are antisemitic. Three arguments have been mobilized against this accusation - that many of the demonstrators are Jews, that this accusation aims to silence legitimate political dissent, and that anti-Zionism is legitimate (a matter of opinion toward a state), while antisemitism is not (a negative attitude toward a group). None of these arguments hold water.
One of the woke left's most precious contributions to our political landscape has been its claim that sexism and racism do not only exist in the conscious mind and in the intentions of sexists and racists, but in unconscious cultural layers we all bathe in. This is the reason why "giving a compliment" to a woman about her figure is considered sexist today, despite the good intentions of the compliment giver. ("I just wanted to be nice!")
The woke left has consistently argued that racism and sexism deposit themselves in images, in words' connotations, in mental associations, all of which perpetuate domination, exclusion, hierarchy. This is why the woke left wants to police speech, precisely because language and culture contain these sedimented layers hiding diverse forms of domination beyond conscious intentions.
It's no surprise that the young people who all over the world are calling for the dismantling of the State of Israel do not consider themselves antisemites.
If that is true of women, Muslims and Black people, it is all the more true of the group that has been the object of the oldest hatred of Western culture, the Jews. Let us then apply to antisemitism the tenets of the woke left and ask if these demonstrators are bathing in profoundly antisemitic cultural meanings.
What does the strange irrational hatred called antisemitism consist of? I am not a historian of this vast topic, but personally I define it as the theory that holds Jews responsible for the spilling of the blood of non-Jews.
Thus, I do not think Christian anti-Judaism stems from a competition between two faiths claiming their theological primacy. (Christians call this verus Israel or supercessionism.) Belief systems and religions have no problem discarding whoever preceded them and viewing their version as the first and only true theology. Antisemitism much more likely stems from one key Christian belief - that Jews were guilty of the worst crime of all, the deicide: killing God himself.
(Part 2)
The Book of Matthew says as much. Pilate, the Roman governor who had been mandated by the Jews to execute Jesus, claims: "I am innocent of this man's blood." The Jewish crowd responds: "His blood be on us and our children," known in Christian theology as the blood curse.
Christian iconography abundantly represented Jesus' blood on the cross. The image of blood, when associated with the sacrificial death of a compassionate son of God, is likely to have struck the imagination of Christians all the more because this image widely reverberated throughout the centuries. In a world where Christian paintings were the only visuals and were accompanied by the shocking narrative of God's murder, Jews could only appear as a group conspiring to throw the world into chaos and suffering. It is therefore unsurprising that in the 12th century, especially in France and England, Jews were accused of killing Christian children in order to use their blood for baking Passover matza.
In a world where Christian paintings were the only visuals and were accompanied by the shocking narrative of God's murder, Jews could only appear as a group conspiring to throw the world into chaos and suffering.
The drawing of blood was not their only crime. Jews were said to poison wells and desecrate the host, the Communion bread, one of the gravest offenses for Catholics. Jews fared even worse with Luther's Protestantism. The title of his book "On the Jews and Their Lies" gives it away. He viewed Jews as liars, idolaters, thieves and robbers. He recommended that they be expelled, their homes razed, their schools and synagogues burned.
Thus the idea that dominated Christian culture, at least until the Enlightenment, is that Jews are criminals, outside the law and intent on destroying whatever is worthwhile. This is so much the case that 18th-century philosopher Gotthold Ephraim Lessing wrote "Die Juden" to make the (then radical) point that Jews could be as moral as any other person.
Twentieth-century anti-modern and antidemocratic ideologies amplified the view of Jews as a fundamentally criminal group. In Russia, the 1903 "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion" warned that Jews were plotting to control the world in order to destroy it, the secular equivalent of the deicide.
As historian Michael Berkowitz has further argued, the view that Jews were criminals constituted a significant dimension of Nazi antisemitism. (See his book "The Crime of My Very Existence: Nazism and the Myth of Jewish Criminality.") Communists and anarchists were viewed as dangerous criminals and threats to the social order, with Jews the most dangerous among them. Jews were also parasites and leeches, animals that suck blood. French writer Louis Celine, an enthusiastic Nazi sympathizer, called the Jews the most ferocious and corrosive parasites.
In the Soviet Union the 1953 "doctors' plot" - a conspiracy theory in which physicians, most of them Jewish, were accused of planning to kill top Soviet leaders - made the link with Zionism. Doctors, who spill blood as part of their profession, were accused of poisoning Soviet leaders. As Pravda put it, "The filthy face of this Zionist spy organization, covering up their [the Jewish doctors'] vicious actions under the mask of charity, is now completely revealed."
One year earlier, in 1952, the antisemitic Slánský trial in Czechoslovakia against Jewish members of the Communist Party also called the defendants "Zionist-imperialist." These carefully crafted words were enough to send them to their execution. The connection between Jewish criminality and Zionism, antisemitism and anti-Zionism was made by the Soviet Union and slowly penetrated the rest of the world. (It is exactly this tactic that Vladimir Putin used when he called the Ukrainians "Nazis.")
This would be amplified by Arab propaganda, which opposed Jewish nationalism (Zionism) by using the same antisemitic tropes. The Soviets' involvement in the Middle East after World War II consolidated the amalgam that Muslims drew between antisemitism and anti-Zionism. A 1948 Arab League report submitted to the United Nations was called "Jewish Atrocities in the Holy Land." The title aimed to evoke Christian sentiment, and its content was a compendium of the most virulent antisemitic tropes: Jews were not fighting a war but were barbaric murderers of innocent women and children. And these Jews were now called "Zionists."
Israelis are held to a different standard because it is almost impossible to separate them from the old category of Jews as criminally threatening the world order.
A number of important points derive from all of the above. Antisemites nourish a hatred of Jews, who are depicted as threats to the moral order. Antisemitism does not feel primarily like hatred of a group. Once Jews are portrayed as a dangerous entity that spills blood, ignores laws and wreaks carnage, antisemitism becomes the ideology of humanity, morality, order and law, what the great Austrian essayist Jean Améry called virtuous antisemitism. Antisemitism elicits intense moral fervor and passion precisely because Jews are viewed as a danger to humanity.
It's no surprise then that the young people who all over the world are calling for the dismantling of the State of Israel do not consider themselves antisemites. They can deny Israelis their right to existence (a right not denied any other people on Earth) because they are passionately defending the survival of the world threatened by a thug state whose criminality is viewed as unique and uniquely threatening. No other state violence elicits the moral outrage that Israel's does. No other country triggers such an urge among well-meaning people defending morality for that country to be eliminated.
(Part 3)
The idea that Jews threaten the world is deeply embedded in Western culture, so deeply in fact that this category is automatically evoked when the Israeli state sometimes breaks the law, as many states around the world do. There is no doubt that in recent decades, Israel has acted in defiance of international law (and its own as well), and that its military response in Gaza has been disproportionate and brutal.
But I have trouble believing that under the same circumstances other countries would have acted differently. In light of its history, I am betting that the response of the United States, for example, would have been far more devastating. (Just remember the Americans' horrifying response to their October 7, the attack on Pearl Harbor.) Israel has not proved worse than humanity's dismal historical record. Perhaps it has even been better.

Yet Israelis are held to a different standard because it is almost impossible to separate them from the old category of Jews as criminally threatening the world order. When Zionism is made synonymous with radical evil, it is because cognitively and emotionally we cannot disconnect Israelis and Jews, Israeli crimes (ordinary in humanity's sad history) and the deep cultural sense that Jews are dangerous for the world.
Let me provide an analogy. It would be difficult to separate the concept of "skirt" or "dress" from the concept of "woman." Even if we know that Scottish men sometimes wear skirts or that Muslim men wear robes that resemble long dresses, "skirt" and "dress" inevitably invoke femininity, not masculinity.
Zionists and Jews are inextricably linked following a similar cognitive logic. It is very difficult to disentangle the two even if we know that not all Jews are Zionists and not all Zionists are Jews. (A 2021 Pew poll found that a majority of U.S. Jews view Israel as part of their identity, suggesting that the two are deeply intertwined.) While empirically "Jews" and "Zionists" can sometimes be distinct, they cannot be separated in mental representations and are connected in a quasi-automatic way. When the young protesters express their wish to eliminate Israel, they also express the wish to annihilate the Jews living in Israel.
As for the claim that if Jews participate in a movement, that movement is exempted from the accusation of antisemitism, this is also an old trope cultivated by the Soviets. (Some Jewish communists in the Soviet Union persecuted other Jews.) As feminists or African Americans will surely tell you, some women and African Americans hold sexist or racist ideas.
Since the 18th century, Jews have tried to belong to their culture and society in the Diaspora, and anti-Zionism has been one route for membership, whether in the Soviet Union or the West. Early 20th-century Jewish anti-Zionism was a legitimate opinion in debates on the role nationalism should play in Jewish existence. But the meaning of anti-Zionism today has vastly shifted and is no longer a theoretical discussion on the best strategy for survival. Anti-Zionism has been appropriated by a variety of political actors who use it to legitimize their intent to eliminate the state of the Jews.
All of the above is catastrophic not only for us Jews or us Israelis, but for the Palestinians as well. Israelis were gruesomely attacked on October 7, and they interpret the protests around the world as deeply antisemitic. This reinforces in Israelis the feeling that the world intends to destroy them and that they can count only on military force to protect themselves.
The military race to deterrence diverts Israelis further from a political path that offers Palestinians dignity and sovereignty. It makes Israelis acquiesce more easily to the decisions by a horrific government bent on destroying every shred of democracy in Israel. Instead of helping create broad coalitions to demand a just peace for Israelis and Palestinians, instead of uniting Palestinians and dovish Zionists to search for sanity, the protests around the world create unprecedented divisions, mistrust and enmity between people who should otherwise have been allies.
The result will be to erase an already very weak peace camp. Never has morality been such an enemy of the good.

7th Oct was the pick of a series of brutal terrorist attack against Israel by Hamas for many years.
Raping of young women, beheaded babies and abducting of Holocaust survivors and others to Gaza to be hostages' in constant torture till this minute, is the most horrible attack on Jews since the Holocaust.
Israel response is adequate because Hamas built a hub of underground terrorist tunnels to fire missiles on Israel's civilian population with no boundaries whatsoever and using Gaza civilian population (that by all the surveys the vast majority of them support Hamas) as human shield.
Even the International Court in Hague refused to except the allegations against Israel in that matter.

Indeed, the conflict did not start on the 7th Oct. But it not even started 75 years ago. It started more than 100 years ago, when Jewish immigrants came to the land of Israel and started to build their ancient homeland (It was controlled by the Muslims after they invade it brutally in the 7th century and later was controlled by the Ottomans. Before the establishment of the state of Israel, it was held by the British according to a League of Nations mandate).
The Palestinian population (mostly came to the land in the 19th century) did not see the Jewish aspiration (Zionism) in a good way and started waves of pogroms against the Jews of the land in 1920/1, 1929 and between 1936 to 1939 in which many Jews were killed by terrorist acts. In order to defend its population, the Jews established a defense force (The Haggana - The Defense), which later became the IDF.
While the UN decide upon the partition of the land in 1947 to 2 independent states: Jewish state & Palestinian state, the Jews accept it and the Palestinians didn’t (not for the first time and not for the last…) and started a war against the Jews of the land (and later in collaboration with the invasion of the neighboring Arab countries to the new state of Israel). The result was the win of Israel against its enemies and the start of the Palestinian refugees problem - that all of them were under control by the Arab states. Only after 6 days war of 1967 (That was inflicted upon the region due to the threats of the Arabs to throw to the sea the people of Israel), Israel became to control the Palestinian territories. After many years of terrorist aggression by the PLO (like murdering the Israeli delegation to the 1972 Olympics or kidnapping planes and many more atrocious attacks like this), the Oslo accord of 1993 tried to reconcile the 2 sides into a peace process by Israel giving the Palestinians a self-rule in their territories. But instead of being a good neighbor, the “Refuse Front” of Hamas and the Islamic Jihad, refused to recognize Israel existence and engaged in atrocious terrorist suicide attacks. Even after Israel complete withdrawal from Gaza (and the self-destruct of Jewish settlements there) Hamas brutally gained control of the area and start rocketing Israeli civilians. The Palestinian refused (as always) to a finishing settlement of the conflict in 2006-2008 which gave them 98% of the territories including control over most of east Jerusalem.
Anyway, Hamas built terrorist tunnels all along the Gaza area and on the 7th Oct launched the most brutal attack against the Jews since the Holocaust.
So, you support the acts of raping young women, beheaded babies and abducting Holocaust survivors and others to become hostages in Gaza to this day…
Bono knows best. You don’t
after listening to this guy's delirium I got diarrhea
After reading your comment I got cholera...
Raping young women, beheaded babies and abducting Holocaust survivors and others to Gaza to suffer torture to this minuet - was the call of that day.
Hamas is using the civil population of Gaza as human shield. His bloody terrorists that wish to destroy Israel and kill al the Jews (look at their charter) hide behind schools, hospitals and mosques.
What would you do in this situation? If you condemn Israel then you should condemn the Allies for bombing Nazi Germany...
But then - You are evil yourself...
