The Red-Green Alliance is increasingly influencing leftist politics across the West — and Israel pays the price. No self-respecting diaspora Jew can trust the Left anymore.
Israel and its supporters need to recognize that this abject capitulation to jihadism represents a major turning point in the relationship between the Jewish state and Western Europe. Israel and the new Axis of Cowardice have many issues that separate them, but there's also a very important one that needs to be faced: Israel is a young country (like America), that still has pride in itself and its people, and is willing to fight and die to achieve a safe and prosperous future for its children; Western Europe is quite opposite, it is in the process of trying to adminster a painless self-euthanasia, to finally escape the burden of history and to atone itself out of existence, as it is too weak, fractured and guilt ridden to fight to survive.
This is also another reason these dying countries—Britain, Canada, Australia, France et al—resent Israel: misery loves company and it drives Western liberals mad that some people and places refuse to follow them into the graveyard and commit suicide in the name of Social Justice. Just like stupid people resent smart people and celibates resent libertines, weaklings resent fighters, especially when they've long since abandoned any conception of fighting and would rather expire in quiet servitude than pick up a weapon. Western liberals have lost even the language to explain why their countries, peoples and history deserve to exist. People like Starmer, Macron and the faceless leader of Canada have no sacred values higher than the temporal and material and would only risk their lives to get their kids into good colleges and maybe score some Taylor Swift tickets.
It's time for Israel and its allies to brush up on our Houellebecq ("Submission" is a good start)—Western Europe is in the process of Islamization and is gradually transforming from allies of Israel to enemies. They are like a drowning swimmer who wants to save himself by pulling you under with him. People who still want to live need to steer clear of people determined to die.
That was so eloquently put and you hit the nail on the head 100%, these are all the precise reasons they all suffer from TDS and are angry at the USA for voting in Trump, but I think they are about to get a huge wake-up call, and as far as Israel and the USA goes, we cannot afford to back down from these whining pathetic losers, and we also cannot let them get away with it either. Islam is evil, pure and unadulterated evil, we need to wipe it out before it wipes out the world, and it will its just a matter of time!
Just as you wouldn't get in a car driven by someone with a death wish, Israel needs to keep its distance from Western liberals, who want to drag them along into dhimmitude if not total civilizational surrender. Israel has no reason to join in Western Europe's rituals of atonement, if anything Jews were more victimized by Europeans than any of their distant colonies.
In fact, underneath the capitulation to Muslim electorates, leaders like Carney, Albanese, Starmer and Macron, not to mention the entire slice of western European governments, are once again expressing the millennial Jew hatred that has ran throughout Christian European history and seeps through their pores even as they may think they are doing otherwise. Eighty years since the Holocaust and they are at it again, the governments echoing and reinforcing the mob.
No doubt, the Jewish scapegoat rides again. Old habits die hard and the Jewish scapegoat served too valuable a purpose to be killed off forever—it exists to give the world's angriest and most miserable losers an excuse for their failures and shortcomings.
"If only Jews didn't control the world, I wouldn't still be a virgin living in mom's basement!" ;)
Unfortunately you are absolutely right. Christian European antisemitism. When are they going to get over it? They will kill themselves, proclaiming it's the fault of the Jews the entire time they are sinking to the bottom of the ocean.
Too bad Europe doesn't have a Second Amendment; the "normies" are trying to rebel but they are getting arrested, beaten back, oppressed. And yet, the Muslims have weapons and will get more. America stands a chance, especially now, if the Turning Point wave takes off. But will Jews stand a chance in ANY Western country? I don't know.
You raise an important point. My #1 concern is the Red-Green alliance, but the right-wing Christian Nationalists are no comfort. I keep asking, "where do the Jews fit in to their vision of the future?" No one talks about it.
Turning Point is more "evangelical" than "nationalist." For now, at least. I hope they disown people like Candace or Tucker. They didn't invite Candace to the memorial, but Tucker got up there and said some something I find alarming, and he is slated to go on tour for TP. I'm very concerned and I really hope that soon, TP will clarify and insist they still support Israel/Jews and reject the conspiracy theories going around. We really need them to do that. It would be horrifying, truly horrifying, if TP ends up with many members turning on Israel.
Yes, the evangelicals, but at least -- so far -- they support Israel. I share your concern for the future. But in addition, Project 25 Christian nationalist types are also a concern. It's everywhere lately.
Many don’t understand that here in the US it only Trump and his sycophants who still support Israel. When Trump gets tired of losing his Noble prize because his support of Israel is now against the principles of the new West, he will capitulate, his deaf dumb followers will then follow him to the destruction of Israel and possibly the nation of Jews.
Trump loves holding the cards and the game against us. We are the jokers without a wild card. After all, those liberals who we thought would protect us do not, as I learned soon after 10/7 when they attacked me. Look at the next NYC mayor who is supported by the NY Governor and who will be the first mayor and governor here not to need the support of the second largest Jewish community in the world as he spreads intifada on us. And I am told that the guy is supported by many Jews as well.
We have not taught our children well and we have not fought the propaganda at all leaving us with nowhere to go. The lessons of the last million lost souls of the holocaust era have not been learned.
Thank you. Trump has screwed over everybody he has ever had dealings with when the couldn't longer do anything for or to him. If he lives long enough, Israel and Jews in the U.S. Will get hosed by him. Too many Jews cannot or will not see this, and this breaks my heart.
Oh yes, absolutely. I've said this from the beginning. He has no ideology other than his own wallet / ego. For sure, he will drop us as soon as he can't benefit from it. Perhaps our only chance is Ivanka. Perhaps.
Yes 100%. Pure evil. But I want to say that the West has no reason to be guilt-ridden. It has done nothing worse than every single civilization that ever existed. And it has done more to rectify injustice than any other. Call me outdated, I stand by Israel and the Western Enlightenment. There is no alternative at the moment. We need to remind the woke left that they are throwing away the greatest culture humanity has produced.
All true and well said. But let’s not forget that Qatar and others are spending freely to buy influence in the West. Perhaps Starmer and these other hacks are focused on their post-retirement secret Swiss bank account balances.
Bribery is eternal, but I don't believe that the entire Western leadership class from politicos to journalists to execs and professors etc have been bribed en masse.
The zeitgeist encompasses many things, money and business always being important factors, but there are also moral, cultural and civilizational arcs. The West has allowed itself to be poisoned by destructive postmodern ideology and subsidized its universities to teach at least two generations of their children to hate their own countries, peoples, tribes etc (and often themselves), and that Justice demanded that all these be deconstructed into oblivion in the name of "liberation".
Also, apex parasites like Starmer don't need to be bribed they just need to stay loyal to their class and they will enjoy a second career giving speeches and collecting sinecures at top dollar. That being said, there's no doubt that lower-level parasites like journalists and profs are dining well off the Qataris and will do or say anything their paymasters demand.
Also a good point. Why isn't the US passing a law that says NO FOREIGN MONIES TO OUR UNIVERSITIES ALLOWED? And . . . all funds previously received must be earmarked for STEM research or scholarships or given to the Treasury for all I care. I will never forgive Obama for building a base in Qatar WTAF?
Dear me, lard isn't kosher. And although I am sometimes wrong, I am not fat.
Over half of American Jews are either aligned with J Street, or even more vehemently against the policies of the Israeli government (e.g. JVP). But there is a minority who suspect that pogroms are fun if you are the perpetrators and not the victims, and we should at least check out that possibility.
Really depends on the context, I've been both many times. And I think it was pretty obvious I wasn't talking about myself or denigrating anyone.
Here is what I wrote: "Just like stupid people resent smart people and celibates resent libertines, weaklings resent fighters..."
It was metaphorical language about the difference bw European appeasement and Israelis being willing to risk their lives to protect their people. Feel free to disagree, but no need to attack me.
My profound horror over what Starmer has done today is immeasurable. I apologise on behalf of the UK for this catastrophic action. It has been taken because they are desperate to appease their Muslim voters. What they have done will endanger the hostages, it will achieve nothing. They have not taken into account the previous agreements regarding this issue. Hamas must be disarmed and destroyed. In the UK this government is despised beyond belief. It is destroying its self day by day. Most British people do not support this. I have complete confidence that once a new government is appointed, this crazy decision will be reversed. Please keep moving forward. 🙏
That is pure and utter BS spoken by a lair and the biggest BS-tter on this subtract, so why are you here TDS Teddy, whats your pathetic game plan other than to insult and talk crap about Israel and the Jews you love to hate!
I am willing to bet you jumped for joy at Charlie Kirk's assassination, no doubt by your demented standards he was a racist and a misogynist right!
How does one recognise a ‘State’ whilst at the same time [rightly] designating the Government of said ‘State’ as terrorists? Fucking crazy. Shame on you Canada, Aussie & UK.
Firstly I would like to wish you a Shanna Tova Joshua. We are looking at bad times now, but we are not the same Jews. We will stand up proud, together, and if need be, fight. I am a Montrealer, we won’t back down nor hide from anything. We have been betrayed, so we must form new alliances. SHANNA TOVA
This is Munich all over again but BH the State of Israel will not allow itself to be part of any arrangement that makes the State of Israel engage in national suicide that is orchestrated by the nations that paved the way to Auschwitz with their belief in peace in time
All true. I personally don't believe there is the slightest intention in the mediocre minds of the Western leaders recognising " Palestine" to appease Hamas. They know that it has been tried. Israel tragically did. Their volunteered recognition ( of what, exactly?) answers to their caving in shamefully to Islamic internal forces. The truth is that not only they don't aim to appease, but they surely know - it would take imbecility not to- that the "Palestinian" hoax aims at destroying Israel . They never wanted a state and they still don't. They want the whole of Israel and they openly say so.
So the three little Chamberlains know all this. But they don't care.
There, though, lays the tragedy of their shortsightedness and incompetence: not a matter of decency - they lack it- , but they have the absolute certainty that Israel, fed up and armed to its teeth, will continue its effort to destroy Hamas both in Gaza and in Judea and Samaria. Israel will terminate the massive hoax of "Palestine" by establishing facts on the ground, and somehow demanding that Arabs take responsibility for the misery they encouraged and whose festering they nurtured, and find a place for that rabid population none of them wants .Neither Egypt nor Jordan gave these " Palestinians" a state when they held those territories for 20 years. Israel, erratically, gave them Gaza on a silver platter.
There will be no " Palestinian" state. Israel will not allow it, and all three wannabe Chamberlains can continue making ridiculous announcements until the Messiah comes.
Time for Israel to start orchestrating some migrant boat caravans out of Gaza and ship a few thousand Palestinians to France and England. Then the white saviors of Free Palestine! will get to practice what they preach and live next door to their newest sacred victims. Skin in the game often leads to clarity.
“His Majesty’s Government have thus been faced with an irreconcilable conflict of principles … For the Jews the essential point of principle is the creation of a sovereign Jewish State. For the Arabs, the essential point of principle is to resist to the last the establishment of Jewish sovereignty in any part of Palestine”
Quote by British Foreign Minister Ernest Bevin in February 1947 in a speech to the British Parliament explaining why Britain can no longer carry out the mandate with which it was entrusted by the League of Nations and thus sending it back to the United Nation.
Note the date - February 1947: there is no Israel, no refugees, no occupation, no settlements, no blockade - none of the ‘understandable causes’ for Palestinian violence that even the UN Secretary General has fallen for.
And yet, already in February 1947 it is crystal clear why the conflict is already “irreconcilable”: as a matter of top priority, “the essential point of principle”, the Jews want a state whereas as a matter of top priority the Arabs of the land (later known as Palestinians) seek “to resist to the last the establishment of Jewish sovereignty *in any part* of Palestine”.
That’s the conflict. The Jews want a state in even a part of the land. The Palestinians want the Jews not to have a state in any part of the land. That’s “Free Palestine”. That’s “From the River to the Sea”. It’s an idea that guarantees that generation after generation trained murderers will rise under different names: Fatah, DFLP, Hamas, Jihad, to “Liberate Palestine”.
Not even a demand for the release of all hostages in return for recognition. At least America has remained strong in spite of this madness. The West would have fallen and been over-run by this year if The Democrats were now in power, along side the Governments in Europe. Thank goodness for President Trump. At least we have one Leader who still lives in the real world. Yes, The West is being over-run. Do they think we are so stupid we cannot see this!
This a letter I submitted to the National Post in Toronto - it might or might not be published
Mark Carney apparently beat England and France to the mark in officially declaring that Canada recognizes a Palestinian state. How does he have the conceit to speak for all of Canada? He certainly doesn’t speak for me.
In 2015, Carney’s predecessor, Justin Trudeau, declared Canada to be the first post national state, another first for the true north strong and free. Trudeau reasoned this because, “There is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada.” So how then does Carney get to speak for all of Canada, saying that all Canadians are just fine with rewarding a terrorist organization with its own state, even while it is still in the throes of its raison d’etre, the total destruction of Israel and its Jewish people?
True, the past two years’ attacks on Jewish communities in Canada, the university encampments, the synagogue and Jewish school shootings and so on, mean that some Canadians are indeed rejoicing at Carney’s declaration. But I hope that this is not “mainstream,” or “core,” to Canada’s identity, and that many more Canadians would object, if Carney ever bothered to find out what they actually think, before speaking for them.
The erstwhile PM should amend his statement accordingly, at the very minimum, to say, “The Canadian government recognizes a Palestinian state.” It is arrogant to think that he has the moral right to speak for all Canadians and for the entity of Canada, especially when he speaks in support of a terrorist, jihadi organization.
As an Australian Jew, it is clear that this country is no longer safe for us. The government talks out of both sides of its mouth and today’s recognition of Palestine (whatever that is; on television this morning the Prime Minister couldn’t answer the question about ‘Palestine’s’ geographical borders) is an appalling capitulation to domestic, left radicalism. It seem terrorism does pay.
“Why do the nations rage and the goyim devise a vain thing? The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers take counsel together against The LORD and against His anointed…He who sits in the heavens laughs, The Lord scoffs at them.” Ps 2.
“For Gaza will be abandoned…the word of The LORD is against you and I will destroy you so that there be no inhabitant…and the coast will be for the remnant of the house of Judah…”. Zephaniah 2.
Excellent essay. Good thing any declaration of recognition of a Pal State is 100 % meaningless and has absolutely zero power to do a damn thing. These Western leaders have ensured that the terrorists now will continue to believe they have a chance of "winning." Instead, they face more death, destruction and eventual expulsion and/or relocation. There will be no Pal state unless one is created out of a Muslim Country, or better yet, in one of the countries "recognizing" a Pal state. Bibi already made a partial comment about all this (that there will NEVER be a Pal state) and has announced a full comment is coming soon.
I’m sorry to say every word of this article is true, Joshua! You didn’t miss a beat and were on point in your criticisms of the international community and the western left. The Red-Green alliance is very real and it has hijacked the left. Today, Britain, France, Canada, Australia, Andorra, Ireland, Portugal, and Malta all voted to recognize a Palestinian state at the UN today. It was a HUGE mistake! But it was done purely for political reasons as left-wing governments are beholden to the woke leftists and Jihadists that have taken over their party. Many of these countries’ governments are trying to save the political careers because they are wildly unpopular. But what they are doing is rewarding Hamas and giving them a big PR victory. Now, Hamas can say to the Palestinian people “Look what we got you! A state! International recognition! You can believe in us and together we’ll achieve mutual liberation!”
Starmer and Macron remind me of Chamberlain and Daladier in their knowing capitulation to Hitler and Mussolini at Munich in 1938. No left-wing political party can be trusted anymore to protect the Jewish people in the West. They must look to the right and the center for protection. As for the international community, they are SO naive about the Palestinians! They were all for the Oslo Accords in 1993 and the Camp David Talks in 2000. They fell for the lie that Yasser Arafat was willing to live in peace with Israel. In public he pretended to, but in private he spoke of intifada revolution and conquering the rest of the holy land when the chance came. He helped wreck Oslo and turned down the proposed Camp David peace agreement even though Bill Clinton and Ehud Barak gave him everything he wanted and more. He was never serious about peace and the hardliners in Palestinian society were only to happy to all they could to collapse the peace process as well.
Today, Fatah and Hamas show no interest whatsoever in peace. Abbas and his Islamist counterparts want it all from the river to sea and want it to be Judenrein. There would be no place for a Jewish state in their perfect scenario for the holy land. So why does the dimwitted international community keep insisting on the long dead and buried two-state solution? Why do they think recognizing a Palestinian state and emboldening Iran and its proxies is a good idea? They are total fools and their purely symbolic moves mean absolutely nothing! The United Nations is a corrupt joke at this point. The European Union is broken and has lost its way. Britain, France, Canada, and Australia are run by weak, pathetic excuses for “men” who are kowtowing to Arab and Muslim voters to save their dying political careers. But as polls show, Starmer and Macron for instance, don’t speak for the silent majority of Brits and Frenchmen. Across the political spectrum left, right and center, the vast majority of the British and French public oppose the recognition of the Palestinian state.
These performative moves won’t lead to peace but to greater legitimacy for Jihadists. Also, you are going to recognize a Palestinian state with NO conditions?! So, you won’t add the caveats that Hamas must surrender unconditionally and the hostages must be turned over and the Palestinians must recognize Israel? 🤦♂️ The international community got taken back in 1993 and 2000 and history is repeating itself in 2025! I call for the election of Kemi Badenoch in Britain, Pierre Poilivere in Canada, Sussan Ley in Australia, and Bruno le Maire in France!
"Palestinian society has not yet produced leadership willing — or even capable — of governing in peace with Israel." Considering the prevailing view of so-called "Palestinian socety" any concept of live and let live from them is wishful thinking as Islamist supremacy IS the core of their world view.
No self-respecting Jew should accept the Israeli plan for ethnic cleansing and apartheid, which now features pogroms in Area C on a near daily basis even though Hamas doesn't operate there.
But not only self-respecting Jews, all self-respecting persons.
Israel and its supporters need to recognize that this abject capitulation to jihadism represents a major turning point in the relationship between the Jewish state and Western Europe. Israel and the new Axis of Cowardice have many issues that separate them, but there's also a very important one that needs to be faced: Israel is a young country (like America), that still has pride in itself and its people, and is willing to fight and die to achieve a safe and prosperous future for its children; Western Europe is quite opposite, it is in the process of trying to adminster a painless self-euthanasia, to finally escape the burden of history and to atone itself out of existence, as it is too weak, fractured and guilt ridden to fight to survive.
This is also another reason these dying countries—Britain, Canada, Australia, France et al—resent Israel: misery loves company and it drives Western liberals mad that some people and places refuse to follow them into the graveyard and commit suicide in the name of Social Justice. Just like stupid people resent smart people and celibates resent libertines, weaklings resent fighters, especially when they've long since abandoned any conception of fighting and would rather expire in quiet servitude than pick up a weapon. Western liberals have lost even the language to explain why their countries, peoples and history deserve to exist. People like Starmer, Macron and the faceless leader of Canada have no sacred values higher than the temporal and material and would only risk their lives to get their kids into good colleges and maybe score some Taylor Swift tickets.
It's time for Israel and its allies to brush up on our Houellebecq ("Submission" is a good start)—Western Europe is in the process of Islamization and is gradually transforming from allies of Israel to enemies.

That was so eloquently put and you hit the nail on the head 100%, these are all the precise reasons they all suffer from TDS and are angry at the USA for voting in Trump, but I think they are about to get a huge wake-up call, and as far as Israel and the USA goes, we cannot afford to back down from these whining pathetic losers, and we also cannot let them get away with it either. Islam is evil, pure and unadulterated evil, we need to wipe it out before it wipes out the world, and it will its just a matter of time!
Just as you wouldn't get in a car driven by someone with a death wish, Israel needs to keep its distance from Western liberals, who want to drag them along into dhimmitude if not total civilizational surrender. Israel has no reason to join in Western Europe's rituals of atonement, if anything Jews were more victimized by Europeans than any of their distant colonies.

You should spend less time playing violent video games, because your blood lust is ugly.
Out of curiosity, do you have combat experience? Not on a screen?
was this for me? my bloodlust? i have no clue what you're talking about.
He seems to be a troll ignore him.
He is a useless fat tub of lard from JStreet, pay no attention to the dickwad!
i really have no clue what he's talking about...
Dear me, lard isn't kosher. And although I am sometimes wrong, I am not fat.
Over half of American Jews are either aligned with J Street, or even more vehemently against the policies of the Israeli government (e.g. JVP). But there is a minority who suspect that pogroms are fun if you are the perpetrators and not the victims, and we should at least check out that possibility.
That sound like you?
Actually his statistics are wrong. Half of American Jews are not aligned with J Street. But they are aligned with liberalism.
Of course. Example: "weaklings resent fighters".
I think we know which group you think you are in. Although, sight unseen and you with a pseudonym, I'm guessing you do your fighting vicariously.
"I think we know which group you think you are in" ???
I really have no clue what you're talking about. Also, I was in no way talking about myself.
I don't think you understand the concept of irony or the difference between descriptive and prescriptive writing.
SSHHH do not engage the village idiot he is not worth the effort.
i know i know
thanks
Do you see yourself as a weakling or a fighter?

Europe is finished. Israel is heading in the right direction by fostering alliances with countries such as India.

Israel will terminate the massive hoax of "Palestine" by establishing facts on the ground, and somehow demanding that Arabs take responsibility for the misery they encouraged and whose festering they nurtured, and find a place for that rabid population none of them wants .Neither Egypt nor Jordan gave these " Palestinians" a state when they held those territories for 20 years. Israel, erratically, gave them Gaza on a silver platter.
There will be no " Palestinian" state. Israel will not allow it, and all three wannabe Chamberlains can continue making ridiculous announcements until the Messiah comes.
Time for Israel to start orchestrating some migrant boat caravans out of Gaza and ship a few thousand Palestinians to France and England. Then the white saviors of Free Palestine! will get to practice what they preach and live next door to their newest sacred victims. Skin in the game often leads to clarity.
Greta Thunberg can pilot them.....
Ha! 3 little Chamberlains…that’s the truth. Waving his worthless paper signed by Adolph. ‘Peace’ he said.
3 Little ChamberPOTS!
Ha!
LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!!
Three Little Chamberlains!!! Someone should write a song. Love it.
Einat Wilf:
“His Majesty’s Government have thus been faced with an irreconcilable conflict of principles … For the Jews the essential point of principle is the creation of a sovereign Jewish State. For the Arabs, the essential point of principle is to resist to the last the establishment of Jewish sovereignty in any part of Palestine”
Quote by British Foreign Minister Ernest Bevin in February 1947 in a speech to the British Parliament explaining why Britain can no longer carry out the mandate with which it was entrusted by the League of Nations and thus sending it back to the United Nation.
Note the date - February 1947: there is no Israel, no refugees, no occupation, no settlements, no blockade - none of the ‘understandable causes’ for Palestinian violence that even the UN Secretary General has fallen for.
And yet, already in February 1947 it is crystal clear why the conflict is already “irreconcilable”: as a matter of top priority, “the essential point of principle”, the Jews want a state whereas as a matter of top priority the Arabs of the land (later known as Palestinians) seek “to resist to the last the establishment of Jewish sovereignty *in any part* of Palestine”.
That’s the conflict. The Jews want a state in even a part of the land. The Palestinians want the Jews not to have a state in any part of the land. That’s “Free Palestine”. That’s “From the River to the Sea”. It’s an idea that guarantees that generation after generation trained murderers will rise under different names: Fatah, DFLP, Hamas, Jihad, to “Liberate Palestine”.
Nailed it. Well said.
Not even a demand for the release of all hostages in return for recognition. At least America has remained strong in spite of this madness. The West would have fallen and been over-run by this year if The Democrats were now in power, along side the Governments in Europe. Thank goodness for President Trump. At least we have one Leader who still lives in the real world. Yes, The West is being over-run. Do they think we are so stupid we cannot see this!
This a letter I submitted to the National Post in Toronto - it might or might not be published
Mark Carney apparently beat England and France to the mark in officially declaring that Canada recognizes a Palestinian state. How does he have the conceit to speak for all of Canada? He certainly doesn’t speak for me.
In 2015, Carney’s predecessor, Justin Trudeau, declared Canada to be the first post national state, another first for the true north strong and free. Trudeau reasoned this because, “There is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada.” So how then does Carney get to speak for all of Canada, saying that all Canadians are just fine with rewarding a terrorist organization with its own state, even while it is still in the throes of its raison d’etre, the total destruction of Israel and its Jewish people?
True, the past two years’ attacks on Jewish communities in Canada, the university encampments, the synagogue and Jewish school shootings and so on, mean that some Canadians are indeed rejoicing at Carney’s declaration. But I hope that this is not “mainstream,” or “core,” to Canada’s identity, and that many more Canadians would object, if Carney ever bothered to find out what they actually think, before speaking for them.
The erstwhile PM should amend his statement accordingly, at the very minimum, to say, “The Canadian government recognizes a Palestinian state.” It is arrogant to think that he has the moral right to speak for all Canadians and for the entity of Canada, especially when he speaks in support of a terrorist, jihadi organization.
As an Australian Jew, it is clear that this country is no longer safe for us. The government talks out of both sides of its mouth and today’s recognition of Palestine (whatever that is; on television this morning the Prime Minister couldn’t answer the question about ‘Palestine’s’ geographical borders) is an appalling capitulation to domestic, left radicalism. It seem terrorism does pay.
What are Israel's geographical borders? (Israel doesn't say, so I guess it doesn't really exist?)
The recognition of Palestine is an attempt to make ethnic cleansing as planned by Smotrich and Ben Gvir not pay.
“Why do the nations rage and the goyim devise a vain thing? The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers take counsel together against The LORD and against His anointed…He who sits in the heavens laughs, The Lord scoffs at them.” Ps 2.
“For Gaza will be abandoned…the word of The LORD is against you and I will destroy you so that there be no inhabitant…and the coast will be for the remnant of the house of Judah…”. Zephaniah 2.
Hang on, beloved of HaShem.
Yes, please hang on you beloved of HaShem. Alex
Excellent essay. Good thing any declaration of recognition of a Pal State is 100 % meaningless and has absolutely zero power to do a damn thing. These Western leaders have ensured that the terrorists now will continue to believe they have a chance of "winning." Instead, they face more death, destruction and eventual expulsion and/or relocation. There will be no Pal state unless one is created out of a Muslim Country, or better yet, in one of the countries "recognizing" a Pal state. Bibi already made a partial comment about all this (that there will NEVER be a Pal state) and has announced a full comment is coming soon.
I’m sorry to say every word of this article is true, Joshua! You didn’t miss a beat and were on point in your criticisms of the international community and the western left. The Red-Green alliance is very real and it has hijacked the left. Today, Britain, France, Canada, Australia, Andorra, Ireland, Portugal, and Malta all voted to recognize a Palestinian state at the UN today. It was a HUGE mistake! But it was done purely for political reasons as left-wing governments are beholden to the woke leftists and Jihadists that have taken over their party. Many of these countries’ governments are trying to save the political careers because they are wildly unpopular. But what they are doing is rewarding Hamas and giving them a big PR victory. Now, Hamas can say to the Palestinian people “Look what we got you! A state! International recognition! You can believe in us and together we’ll achieve mutual liberation!”
Starmer and Macron remind me of Chamberlain and Daladier in their knowing capitulation to Hitler and Mussolini at Munich in 1938. No left-wing political party can be trusted anymore to protect the Jewish people in the West. They must look to the right and the center for protection. As for the international community, they are SO naive about the Palestinians! They were all for the Oslo Accords in 1993 and the Camp David Talks in 2000. They fell for the lie that Yasser Arafat was willing to live in peace with Israel. In public he pretended to, but in private he spoke of intifada revolution and conquering the rest of the holy land when the chance came. He helped wreck Oslo and turned down the proposed Camp David peace agreement even though Bill Clinton and Ehud Barak gave him everything he wanted and more. He was never serious about peace and the hardliners in Palestinian society were only to happy to all they could to collapse the peace process as well.
Today, Fatah and Hamas show no interest whatsoever in peace. Abbas and his Islamist counterparts want it all from the river to sea and want it to be Judenrein. There would be no place for a Jewish state in their perfect scenario for the holy land. So why does the dimwitted international community keep insisting on the long dead and buried two-state solution? Why do they think recognizing a Palestinian state and emboldening Iran and its proxies is a good idea? They are total fools and their purely symbolic moves mean absolutely nothing! The United Nations is a corrupt joke at this point. The European Union is broken and has lost its way. Britain, France, Canada, and Australia are run by weak, pathetic excuses for “men” who are kowtowing to Arab and Muslim voters to save their dying political careers. But as polls show, Starmer and Macron for instance, don’t speak for the silent majority of Brits and Frenchmen. Across the political spectrum left, right and center, the vast majority of the British and French public oppose the recognition of the Palestinian state.
These performative moves won’t lead to peace but to greater legitimacy for Jihadists. Also, you are going to recognize a Palestinian state with NO conditions?! So, you won’t add the caveats that Hamas must surrender unconditionally and the hostages must be turned over and the Palestinians must recognize Israel? 🤦♂️ The international community got taken back in 1993 and 2000 and history is repeating itself in 2025! I call for the election of Kemi Badenoch in Britain, Pierre Poilivere in Canada, Sussan Ley in Australia, and Bruno le Maire in France!
"Palestinian society has not yet produced leadership willing — or even capable — of governing in peace with Israel." Considering the prevailing view of so-called "Palestinian socety" any concept of live and let live from them is wishful thinking as Islamist supremacy IS the core of their world view.
Thank you Josh Hoffman! Once again, bullseye! Shana tova 🍯🍎
No self-respecting Jew should accept the Israeli plan for ethnic cleansing and apartheid, which now features pogroms in Area C on a near daily basis even though Hamas doesn't operate there.
But not only self-respecting Jews, all self-respecting persons.
