Vladimir Jabotinsky arrived with his Zionist troop of Ukrainians, Poles and Lithuanians in 1917 with the British Empire to found “our colonial project” (Vladimir Jabotinsky)
The first massacres of the local population perpetrated by these violent and fanatic Ukrainians emigrants were in 1936
Massacres to make clear who is the dominant people, the “HerrenVolk”, and who are “the people of the (dominated) land” (“am ha’eretz”) which is what the Rag Doll rules in the hands of Aramaic ventriloquists: Book of Joshua and Book of Deuteronomy

I just read that Nazism was a “top-down” revolution in Germany.
Germans were not ready or willing to really rise up against anyone in the late twenties. They were just trying to survive.
Can Zionism be called a top-down revolution among the Jews—most of whom were not interested in it unless pushed and prodded by the under duress.

Fascism is always a ‘top down revolution,’ since it’s the form of the class dictatorship of the Bourgeoisie in times of crisis. The word ‘revolution’ is really out of place here, though, because the big capitalists have more direct control of government than they did under ‘bourgeois democratic norms.’ Nothing gets overturned in the class structure.

If the israelis “controlled” the USA, they wouldn’t be sending their 19 year old sargeants to be smoked by yassin rockets in Gaza and Hezbollah explosives in the north. There is NO SHORTAGE of dumb, white, impressionable american young men ready to be put into the iron sights of a Hamas RPG.
The why are the israelis, who have a small population of 9 million, giving away their kids in the war? Don’t they hold all the cards? Don’t they pull all the strings in Washington? The why aren’t they sending american kids to die in their place?
Whoever says that Israel commands the USA and isn’t able to answer this question has no footing in this discussion. America has its hand firmly in the wheel, denying that is trying to build some cover to the robber barons (most of them protestant anglos, by the way) that run this place for the last 300 years.

#NeverAgain FACT: Oct 7th the Israeli Regime unleashed their ‘Hannibal Directive’ where the IDF killed scores of their own citizens – before blaming g their deaths on Hamas and using them as justification for a genocide in Gaza…
Jonathan Cook
@Jonathan_K_Cook
Oct 6
It’s quite incredible that the Guardian has again revisited the Hamas attack of October 7, this time by detailing events at Kibbutz Nir Oz a year ago, and failed to mention that the Israeli army fired on its own civilians, killing at least one kibbutz member, Efrat Katz.
The Israeli media has reported repeatedly that the army invoked the hugely controversial Hannibal directive on October 7 – which authorises soldiers to kill their comrades to stop them being taken captive. But on that day, it was extended to executing Israeli civilians too.
Western media outlets have tried as best they can to bury this aspect of October 7, even though it came to light within days of the Hamas attack. The Guardian finally wrote a low-key report last July on the directive, basing it on investigations by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, but has avoided mentioning the directive since.
That the Guardian can retell the events of 12 months ago without mentioning the Hannibal directive entirely discredits its reporting.
The author of this piece, Bethan McKernan, has become one of the main players, along with her newspaper, in distorting the historical record of October 7 in ways that have made it easier for Israel to justify its slaughter in Gaza.
Earlier, she peddled an entirely evidence-free narrative that Hamas had committed “mass rape” on October 7, recycling claims from a now discredited report in the New York Times. She included a particularly lurid, and implausible, tale about Hamas fighters playing a game of football with a severed woman’s breast while in the middle of the battlefield.
In the next tweet is a link to one of my many stories outlining the extent to which western outlets like the Guardian and BBC have peddled a mix of misinformation and disinformation about October 7 – and thereby assisted Israel in manufacturing consent for Israel’s mass slaughter in Gaza.

“Moses” father-in-law is an Arab priest

If we look at Post WWII, various forms of extremism are little more than tools for the Anglo American powers that be.
Islamic extremism, Nazism, Zionism. Very much top down. Modern psychological operations ect.
Zionism as it is now was I believe originally a British creation. Islamic extremism of today is a CIA Saudi creation from 1979. Nazism – nurtured By US UK since WWII. Origins a little more organic, a product of its times and I guess certain elements in pre-existing German thinking of the time.

I recommend Professor Peter Peterson’s “Propaganda for War”, 1935, University of Nebraska……
Peterson details how London manipulated the American media with fake German war crime stories via cash bribes and threats. They skillfully whipped up American public opinion to point that German and Irish Americans were attacked in the streets and or arrested and imprisoned for anti Brit views on the European War of the Cousins.
Its a very old book and very good too, and totally relevant to the IDF fake news stories about civilian deaths on October 7th (most Israeli civilians deaths resulted from IDF Apache air strikes on the Rave festival kids, and IDF tank fire on civilian homes in the Kibbutz’…………), this is no joke, as Joementia would say (over and over again) !!
Remember the fake Brit news story of the bayoneted nurse murdered by the Germans? Same phony BS over a century later. Or the fake WMD story from GW Bush and R. Cheney and company……..

Well, as it turns out, it was a bit like that.
According to Israel Shahak, the people most threatened by the gradual emancipation of the Jews from 1789 to 1917 were those who either ran the ghettoes or who served as intermediaries between the ghettoes and the Xtian population. I’ve got to find the book I read that in because there was a lot of other outstanding material.
Anyway, it was those people who were facing the loss of their power who were behind the emergence of Zionism. So now they’re running Israel, a ghetto, on behalf of the West. Dream come true.

Wahhabi-type Islamic fundamentalism was promoted because
1) it served to harm Russia and China
2) it served to destroy societies with an Islamic cultural tradition
3) it served to create Islamophobia in the West
win win win
Zionism (if you are interested in this topic you can read its bloody pamphlets: Book of Joshua and Book of Deuteronomy) is an ideology of an Aramaic ruling class from the Persian imperial era that founded the province of “Yehud/Judea” and then expanded to “Perea”, “Galilea” and “Idumea”
The first version created a great fracture between the people of the ruling overlords and “the people of the land” (“am ha’eretz”) and the matter ended very badly.
And this remake (1917-) of the old film is even worse than the original version.

Meanwhile, it is reported that hundreds of Shahab-3B and Fattah-1 and Soumar missile systems have entered combat duty routes in Iran.
Unambiguous news from Tehran, speculation about a preemptive strike on the nuclear facilities of the Iranian program by Israel and Trump supporting it in this can lead to very strong disappointment for those who are desperately pushing for this young Jewish state.
A source in the Islamic Republic, in a private conversation with an official close to Khamenei, said that “Allah has already given us everything, everything is far from the eyes of the Zionists, and we are ready to release this genie in response to any hint of a real threat to the existence of our state”
“>https://t.me/vicktop55/27118

Remember when Allah told Iran that nukes where a sin? No? Neither do I.
Of course Iran had nukes and had them for a while otherwise its conventional force is useless. It’s impressive they managed to keep Israel at bay all this time, or misinformed, despite the Mossad infiltration, destroyed centrifuges, and murdered scientists they are locked and loaded. That wasn’t a test, much too late for that, it was a message.
My guess is they worked out a deal with N.Korea or Pakistan, and maybe Russia going through N.Korea, not that I think Russia gives much of shit about appearances toward the west anymore. First Iran built the missiles, proved their worth with two strikes and now let Israel and the USA know they are locked and loaded.
Think about all the spasms coming out of the west over the last 20ys about Iran and nukes, JCPOA HCR/Kerry/Trump shit on off off on. Netanyahu bloviating in the wilderness, and he was right! Iran has nukes and the west can go suck eggs. Question is will Israel and the USA push them like they are pushing Russia? Only problem is one miscalculation and the tiny nation of Israel ceases to exist, forever. Netanyahu seems to have stepped in shit, now it’s mano a mano across the Mid East.
Strange Mexican standoff world we live in where everyone has a nuke to everyone’s head.

Nukes are only good if they are known. A deterrent. NK did not hide theirs.
Russian and China had been against nuclear proliferation but Trump changed that.
After Trump pulled out of the Iran nuke treaty, Both Russia and China were against renewing Iran nuke related UN sanctions when they came up for renewal. Can’t remember if they vetoed them or what, but UN nuke sanctions on Iran sanctions were not renewed.

Have great difficulty believing Iran would launch a nuclear first strike on Occupied Palestine.
IF they have the bomb, possibly limited surgical strike/s only, and only in retaliation of Israeli nuclear launch/first strike/s. Take out Tel Aviv. They have more than enough conventional assets to wipe the floor, let alone multi-domain assymmetric options.
See: Dr Stranglove. Nuclear deterrance only works if publicized and accompanied by open declaritive policy.

Posted by: Honzo | Oct 7 2024 19:57 utc | 107 “Fascism is always a ‘top down revolution,…”This part is true. Fascists are not put into power by the mobilization of the majority against Communists or Jews or even immigrants, it’s always with the cooperation of some of the big bourgeoisie/nobility/generals with what mass support they have largely from the petty bourgeoisie and some of the lumpen. The Nazis did not take power by winning street fights, but by political intriguers nominating Hitler as Chancellor. Hitler had to consolidate his power by appeasing the generals with the blood of his storm troopers, the death of Roehm et al. Indeed, Hitler was nominated after the Nazi party’s high tide in parliamentary elections, when they had at least temporarily began to lose in electoral strength, The argument one of the reasons the big bourgeois conservatives and generals felt more comfortable bargaining with Hitler was precisely because his independent strength had diminished putting the more legalistic or cautious conservatives in a better position, has some plausibility. (Not conclusive, too much of a counterfactual.)
“…since it’s the form of the class dictatorship of the Bourgeoisie in times of crisis.” Unclear as to the nature of the crisis. It’s common to say the crisis is the imminent threat of socialist revolution, but this is not the case. In the case of Germany the crisis was largely economic (the failure of such schemes as the Young and Dawes plans and the cul-de-sac of the Great Depression) and the desire to mobilize for war, for conquest and colonies. The continued existence of the liberal democrats of various types as well as the Social Democrats and the Communists was an obstacle, even though the real threat of socialism was pretty nil ever since the last great crisis in 1923.
“the big capitalists have more direct control of government than they did under ‘bourgeois democratic norms.’ This is incorrect as written. The people who ended up with the most direct control were of course Hitler and his subordinates like Goering, Goebbels, Hess, and so on. They were not big capitalists! Better to have written, the big capitalists have direct intervention by the lawless state on their behalf in the economy, both domestic and foreign (including military adventures.)
“Nothing gets overturned in the class structure.” Something of an exaggeration: The annihilation of trade unions and their replacement by government organizations labeled trade unions is a change in the class structure. Government enforced changes in wages, regressive taxation and direct financial support of selected big capitalists, legalized cartel structures, etc. This sort of thing is not an overturn of capitalist property relations, but they are infringements on the previous system. In my opinion, it is however incorrect to claim this sort of thing constitutes socialism, not even “national socialism.” Individual capitalists suffer from the loss of political power but as a class, the capitalists derive some benefit, even at the expense of the petty bourgeoisie so far as I can tell.
Nothing gets overturned in the class structure.

It seems like these nuclear rumors may be gaining enough traction that they become the Hidden Hand’s set-up for the long anticipated pre- US election big nuclear scare. Whether that means iran actually did a nuclear test or not is immaterial; iran must comply with all HH directives as it pertaims to the now 5 year old Non-Public Degrowth Agenda or else – just like everyone else. The big scare being israel nuking iran and irans response. We can be confident that iran’s oil infrastructure will survive because the DA, above, isn’t stoopid.

mind you I have assumed that Iran has had nukes for years. While i am sure they stopped working on them when there was a real chance of sanctions being lifted, from the moment Trump got it I feel sure they would have restarted.
Russia would NOT have given them much help until recently, since there was always the chance that iran would return to the western world, but since the clear division has been clear over the last 5 years, more help would have been given.

That statement betrays utter ignorance of the Third Reich.
It also shows ignorance of the difference between Konzentrationslager, Arbeitskommandos, Umerziehungslager, und Vernichtungslager. The character and purpose of all of these camps evolved as the Nazis planned and then took Germany to war.
The first concentration camp was KZ Dachau, opened on March 22, 1933. It was not “for Jews.” It was “for” anyone who did not go along with the Nazi Party’s early decrees and laws to quash all dissent and erect a totalitarian system in order to totally transform the country—quickly.
It was “for” the Nazis’ political opponents. They came in all religious and political stripes. For instance, journalists who did not toe the new line, Socialists, Communists, pastors, priests, doctors, administrators, etc.

This is from the Tehran Times. I don’t have any experience with this paper – it may be all propaganda.
Big, if true:
—————-
TEHRAN – The Iranian parliament is drafting a defense and security pact to be signed among “Resistance groups and their supporting countries”, according to reports by Iranian media. 
The proposed legislation seeks to create a common defense structure designed to counter external threats, particularly from the United States and Israel. According to the text of the proposal, all member countries or freedom movements will be required to provide comprehensive support—including military, economic, and political assistance—should any member state come under attack from Israel or its allies.
Key clauses within the proposal stipulate that any freedom movements included in this pact must receive approval from Iran’s Supreme National Security Council. Additionally, the executive regulations for the pact, including the establishment of a secretariat and the delineation of responsibilities among various agencies, will also be overseen by this council.
One of the most significant aspects of the proposal is the establishment of a joint military headquarters intended to facilitate coordination between Iranian forces and Resistance groups. The headquarters would serve as a central command for managing military operations and crisis response, reinforcing operational capabilities through planned joint military exercises.
The representative who introduced the proposal to Iranian media emphasized that this pact aims not only to enhance military cooperation but also to bolster infrastructure development for Resistance groups. Collaboration in building military bases and training centers is expected to improve readiness against potential threats.
As Israeli aggressions in the region persist, the formation of this defense structure could pave the way for greater stability and security among member countries. If successfully implemented, it is believed that this alliance could significantly shift the balance of power in the region, presenting a formidable counterweight to Western influence seeking to wreak havoc in West Asia to Israel’s benefit.

Lowball Military Censor BS ?

Israel reveals its military losses (RT)
More than 700 Israeli troops have been killed in the country’s bloodiest conflict in five decades
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has published an extensive casualty list, revealing that it has lost at least 726 troops since the war in Gaza began a year ago. More than 4,500 soldiers have been injured in the same period.
Some 726 Israeli soldiers, reservists, and security officers have been killed since the Israel-Hamas war began a year ago on Monday, the IDF said in a statement on Sunday. Of that number, 346 were killed during ground operations in Gaza, which began on October 27 last year.
These losses are the highest suffered by Israel during any military conflict since the 1973 Yom Kippur War, in which more than 2,600 Israeli soldiers were killed. The IDF noted that the current body count only includes those “whose names have been permitted for publication,” meaning that the true number could be significantly higher.
Of the 726 killed, 56 died due to friendly fire or other “operational accidents,” the IDF stated.
A total of 4,576 Israeli troops have been injured since the beginning of the war, 2,300 of them during ground operations in Gaza, the statement continued …

Initially “revolution” meant a return to an initial state, as in cosmology.
I forget when it switched to the modern meaning: either with the English or the French revolution.
I believe more recently “revolution” is meant to indicate a left-ward turn, and “counter-revolution” is meant to indicate a right-ward turn.
So the end of communism in the Soviet Union was a counter-revolution conducted by some of the nomenklatura and the black marketeers.

“The IRGC’s Quds Force Commander Brigadier General Esmail Qaani is safe despite recent rumors regarding his well-being, confirmed Brigadier General Iraj Masjedi, Deputy Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) Quds Force for Coordination Affairs.
During a local ceremony at the Shahid Beheshti Cultural Complex on Monday, Masjedi addressed the issue, stating that Qaani was currently carrying out his mission without disruption in light of escalating regional Israeli aggressions.
“He is in good health and is carrying out his activities. Some ask us to issue a statement… there is no need for this,” he was quoted as saying by Iranian state media. ”

So that’s why JAB is correct: There were no camps for Catholics, although it would’ve been better to say that Catholics were not a persecuted class/group. Bluntly put: Catholics weren’t opposition. The rapid self-dissolution of the Catholics’s party in the Reichstag is sufficient demonstration of that fact.

Nobody claimed there were camps FOR Catholics, rather, Catholics were sent to concentration camps. Not in the numbers or proportions that Jews and Gypsies were, because they were a third of the German population, but the church was harrassed and activist catholics arrested and sent to concentration camps. Catholics were not the center of mass of resistance to the Nazis, but neither were Jews or Gypsies. The Nazis were pro-active in driving the non-activist catholics away from activism.

Wyatt at DPA says that Iran made a nuclear weapons test. Some people have said it was an earthquake, but wave form doesn’t look like an earthquake, it looks like a nuclear test.

I don’t think it was. USGS has it at depth of 10 km, there is no reason to put a test device that far underground. Most test seismograph have a single initial spike then exponential decay with a possible smaller secondary accompanying the collapse of the cavern. The initial spike is by far the most energetic part of the waveform unless it was a fizzle. If this was a test it was probably a fizzle, but given the depth and the waveform I don’t see any compelling reason why it has to be a test.

I admit i have not followed any of his stuff on Palestine.

I had a huge argument with the guy in the comments section of one of his Palestine videos where he basically turned out to have the same viewpoints as a hasbara bot.
He tries very hard to look neutral but watch him long enough and the paint begins to wear off.
I suppose it’s because he’s Singaporean and they have this Israel-worship thing going, along with an underlying fear of anything Islamic on account of being surrounded by Muslims. My theory anyway.
