Makow - I Used to Be a Zionist
April 11, 2025
When I was in my twenties, I used to lull myself to sleep
by imagining I was gunning down "Palestinian terrorists"
who were attacking my kibbutz.
by Henry Makow PhD
I considered immigrating to Israel in 1972 and lived there for nine months.
I went to Labor Zionist summer camps as a youth.
In 1970, I huddled in a bunker at Kibbutz Ashdod Yaakov during a mortar attack.
I'm writing this because I hung out with Zionist Jews when I was young. They were good people.
Charming, warm, funny, smart. I never encountered a pejorative attitude to Gentiles.
What has happened to you?
How can you participate or condone this genocide?
Can't you see that the Hamas attack was orchestrated by Netanyahu to justify ethnic cleansing?
The IDF stood down for seven hours to allow the trauma brainwashing to be effective.
Hamas was funded by Israel to avert the two-state solution.
Can't you see? You have been duped.
Zionists funded Adolf Hitler to trauma brainwash Europe's Jews. Zionists foster antisemitism to control their fellow Jews.
Many Jews oppose Israeli barbarism and support the two-state solution. Not all are Soros' Communist puppets.
Many like Max Blumenthal and the folks at Electronic Intifata are courageous and principled people whom I admire.
CONSIDERED ALIYAH
I lived in Israel for nine months in 1972-1973. I was a copy editor on the Jerusalem Post.
My crowning achievement was a headline about a zoo that showed porn to chimps to encourage propagation. It read "Zoo Shows Porn to Boost Monkey Business."
I was living in Jerusalem when Israel shot down a Libyan airliner that had strayed into the Sinai. Their pathetic excuses really lowered Israel in my eyes.
I had been seeking my identity in community. I decided not to stay because I sensed the people were secondary to the state. No respect for the individual.
I felt strongly about leaving. "When you're stuck in an outhouse vault, it is no consolation that the bums on the pot are Jewish."
I saw student groups visiting Herzl's grave and wondered if I was missing an opportunity to belong to a larger cause. I decided to leave anyway.
I have known many Jews in my life and I like them. I don't have to tell you how talented many are.
BTW, I suspect there are at least 50 million Jews, not 15 million.
I intend to spend the rest of my life researching them. They are a mystery to me.
But, unfortunately, the Sabbatean Frankists (Satanist bankers) are in control.
The only do-able solution is the two-state one. Jews have no legitimate claim to Israel. The least they can do is share it.
But I'm afraid that Israel was established to create world war and catastrophe.
The people in charge are trying to bring about the End Times. It's insane.
Jewish people are smart but they are being used to bring tyranny and calamity.
Jews need to reinvent themselves as mensch-- neither Zionist nor Communist.
Zionists need to pay reparations to Palestinians, beg for forgiveness and make a new beginning.
RH said (April 11, 2025):
Isn’t Israel just a newer version of our Old West’s Cowboys and Indians? And didn’t that came out of European colonialism over the past 400 years. Europe’s great leaders didn’t seem to mind 1/2 of their population leaving their countries apparently to come to North America, displacing others. On a positive note, this saved a lot of people from being killed in the bluebloods’ never ending wars, I guess; even though many others were killed here. Oh boy. What a mess. We need to learn to stay home and behave.
