There is only one way to fight antisemitism. That is with force. guns and drawing blood. We tried all those other ways. They don't work. They get us gas chambers and cattle cars. I know this is a low brow solution but look at the source of who we are dealing with.
I recommend “Ghosts of a Holy War: The 1929 Massacre in Palestine That Ignited the Arab-Israeli Conflict,” by Yardena Schwartz. The Hebron massacre of nearly 70 men, women and children by their Arab neighbors was a brutal precursor by almost 100 years to the Hamas-Palestinian slaughter-torture of Israelis in the “Gaza Envelope” and at the Nova Festival in Southern Israel. I also recommend Oren Kessler’s “Palestine 1936: The Great Revolt and the Roots of the Middle East Conflict”; “The War of Return: How Western Indulgence of the Palestinian Dream Has Obstructed the Path to Peace,” by Adi Schwartz and Einat Wilf; and “On Democracies and Death Cults: Israel and the Future of Civilization,” by Douglas Murray. Murray writes about October 7, 2023, and its aftermath. For the time-pressed, I suggest “The Ten Big anti-Israel Lies and How to Refute Them With Truth,” by Alan Dershowitz. His most recent publication is “Palestinianism,” a phrase I have heard Dr. Wilf previously use. Another Dershowitz book is: “Defending Israel (Against Hamas and its Radical Left Enablers)”; Continuing: “The Builder’s Stone: How Jews and Christians Built the West—and Why Only They Can Save It”, by Melanie Phillips”; “After the Pogrom: 7 October, Israel and the Crisis of Civilisation,” by Brendan O’Neill; “The Jews: An Indigenous People,” by Ben M. Freeman (I’ve often learned of these books by following the authors); “When the Stones Speak: The Remarkable Discovery of the City of David & What Israel’s Enemies Don’t Want You to Know,” by Doron Spielman; “Israeloph✡️bia: The Newest Version of the Oldest Hatred & What to Do About It,” by Jake Wallis Simons; “American Intifada: Israel, the Gaza War, and the New Antisemitism,” by Uri Kaufman; “Israel and Civilization: The Fate of the Jewish Nation and the Destiny of the West,” by Josh Hammer; and “The Invention of the “Palestinians” —The Revised Edition—27 Theses They Won’t Let You Hear Argued at the University on Israelophobia, Judaism, the Middle East, and Related Matters “ by Emmett Laor. This is hardly an exhaustive list. There are may other works and authors. Virtually all have their own podcasts and Substack, as well as You Tube Accounts and Channels, including “The Green Prince,” “Son of Hamas” Mosab Hassan Yousef; and Ayan Hirsi Ali (I believe that is correct), author of “Infidel” and other works.
Thank you for this thoughtful piece. I have been more connected and forever connected with my Jewish identity since October 7 and i’m so lucky and happy to have Judaism in my heart and soul.
A very good point about Jews always being put on trial and therefore forced always to be on the defensive. The emblematic scene in The Merchant of Venice is a trial scene and though technically Antonio is on trial, actually, of course, Shylock is: https://ruthvanita452091.substack.com/p/how-shakespeare-invented-what-we
Now we're talking! Just like the IDF graduation ceremonies in front of the Western Wall. Torah in one hand, M-16 in the other, slap them together. Welcome to the IDF!
Antisemitism is an active Program by trained Far Right operators in The State. It is an Active Psyops, internationally directed by violent institutions set up to subjugate Jews in the diaspora. Once you realise this the battle is half won. Further, we have put in place and monitored and outed these people here in London. This fight has been vital for ALL the original targets of the Nazis, including Britain, America and Russia. This time the Nazis re-formed The Nazi Party and wanted the re-match to bring the original Allies of World War Two to blows once again. Well, they failed. Furthermore, Israel is now rightly seen as a vital bulwark against Nazism, and their Islamist Fellow travellers. Both of these Ideologies bring Darkness and the end of Civilisation. Our job has been a superb victory! It has been achieved by people who have an ABSOLUTE Adherence to the Anti-Nazi calling: Jewish collaboration with non-Jewish anti-Nazis. One of the many lessons learned is that in this regard The Jewish People do need the active Diaspora, and non-Jewish anti Nazis to succeed in Defeating Nazism. Please remember this.
"Trained Far Right operators in The State"? You must be joking. All of the Hamas -Palestinian supporters in Western nations are of the left-wing persuasion and, despite their claim to the moral high ground they have become ignorant left-wing fascists. That may sound like an oxy-moron but it has become reality. They smirk and sneer and deny Israeli and Jewish suffering when presented with facts. They prevaricate, obfuscate and present their grotesque argument of moral relativism and their ideological garbage critical race theory and the its binary oppressed vs oppressor narrative. They shut down dissent and reasoned and civilised debate and jackboot their way over democratic norms. The left are the insidious operators in "The State".
All true about The Far Left, Andy. But these people in the Left are the Useful Idiots of The Far Right in The State. We have seen this in action many times over the years, and we have now Fully documented this.
Islamist extremists do fit the profile of Far Right and the Far Left have indeed proven to be their useful idiots. Both extremes of the political spectrum are equally grotesque but the useful idiots of the Far Left scream much louder and are currently (unfortunately) "in control" of the majority of Western democracies (US, Israel and Italy excepted).
It is called ‘Riding Herd’, the process of taking control of The Left to repurpose the Left’s political movements and their Hatreds, for Antisemitism, and to then put in place the Genocidal program against Jews on behalf of The Nazis.
Can't say I'm convinced on that one. The modern day Far right have never struck me as having the intelligence to control their extreme nemesis.
Let's also not forget the Palestinian identity was invented in the 1960s after the PLO was established under the tutelage of the Soviet Union in what became the Soviets' most enduring and successful subversion strategy against the West (that from the mouth of Major General Ion Mihai Pacepa, the highest ranking Soviet defector of the cold war era). Sure enough, the Iranian revolution was usurped by fascist Islamist extremists but it started out as a movement based in Marxism and has recently been proven something of a toothless tiger.
Your theory kind of flips history on its head and suggests the Soviets were being controlled by the Nazis? I find that a bit of a long bow to draw.
True,Andy, Modern day threats come from both ends of the Spectrum. But I can assure you The Nazis attempted to take cover inside the institutions of The West post war, and then used racism and Hatred of Jews to climb to positions of power in these institutions. We have now monitored the whole lot: Dangerous and subversive Nazism. All now monitored and in the record.
This is a world wide Muslim religious war...2.6 million blacks have been killed by Muslims in Africa in the last 20 years .... Christians are being killed churches blown up all over the world by Muslims ...UK Finland Sweden France Belgium Netherlands Portugal Spain Canada are now Muslim controlled countries.....
Please stop with the Jew hate....replace with. Muslim world wide religious war.....fyi the BDS movement are actually Muslim military cells....
I don't like to consider myself a victim or perpetual victim. That leads to a huge problem the world has today. This whole oppressed oppressor mentality is causing great societal harm.
You said "We must reclaim our language. We do not cede the ground. We are an oppressed people fighting a system of institutional racism whose shape we know in our bones."
This is a much better way of putting it. Thank you.
This was very moving in these dark times. We are an ancient people with a rich set of traditions and canon. We should not let anyone devalue us as a people. We are hearing a call from the past that brings us closer not just to each other under threat but to our rituals and learning.
Great article. "Our right to be here is questioned. Our right to exist in Israel is attacked. And now it’s clear: The two are linked." What this sentence expresses so clearly is that our right to exist at all is once again questioned -- by the very West to which we contributed a few foundational stones! It's almost funny, this obsession everyone has with "the Jew." Well, I refuse to be sad. F*#@k 'em.
Please change the title. I wasn't consulted on the title and subtitle. The title should be "Jewish Peoplehood in an Age of Antizionism." "Anti-Zionism" should not be written with a hyphen. That's not in the original text. Nor are the quotes. I write antizionism without a hyphen and treated it as a holistic ideology. The correct text can be found here : https://canadianzionistforum.substack.com/p/rethinking-antizionism, and here : https://www.indigenousembassy.org/articles/turning-point-in-history

A big thank you to all of you who write here.
As an assimilated secular Jew, I’m learning to be not only Jewish again, but to be a proud Jew !
Each text I read expands my self awareness and I’m immensely grateful t you.

This is a much better way of putting it. Thank you.
You must be firmly grounded in Jewish texts and tradition before you can deal with a toxic woke atmosphere
This was very moving in these dark times. We are an ancient people with a rich set of traditions and canon. We should not let anyone devalue us as a people. We are hearing a call from the past that brings us closer not just to each other under threat but to our rituals and learning.
