Damned Spot!
Pro Palestine protestors have blood on their hands. And it won't wash away. UPDATED UPON REFLECTION 02.02.25
“Out, damned spot! …. Here’s the smell of the blood still: all the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand. Oh, oh, oh!”. Macbeth. William Shakespeare
Here’s the thing about having blood on your hands. As the great maestro himself expressed so eloquently in Lady Macbeth’s famous Act 5, Scene 1 monologue; once you’re stained with the guilt of murderous blood, it won’t wash off easily. If ever.
From the writer who never met a Jew in his life and yet concocted the world’s most antisemitic fictional character Shylock, he certainly had an insight into eternal shame and guilt.
Have you seen any of these harrowing hostage release parades?
Teenage girls stolen from their beds, threatened, witnessing the murder of comrades, being beaten, kidnapped and held hostage for 483 days. Then on their release, forced to walk through the crushing gauntlet of a baying mob of terrorists and their supporters. And there were the International Red Cross, sitting pathetically on their fat arses like idling Uber drivers, smiling for the cameras, after failing to visit any of the hostages in Gaza throughout the duration of this horrific war, not even to obtain proof of life.
None was more harrowing to witness than the hollowed out, visceral fear in Arbel Yehud’s eyes after her solitary confinement as a civilian hostage for over a year, not knowing the fate of her boyfriend captured with her.
Seeing these scenes, watching all the families reuniting in unimaginably emotional scenes of relief, pain and hope for a gentle recovery - through the tears, through the joy, the overwhelming emotion that I felt emerging was anger.
Scratch that, it was fury.
At Hamas, yes. Hezbollah and the Houthis, absolutely. At their sleazy Qatari paymasters, hosts and arch propagandists, of course. At the IRGC and their death cult, religious totalitarian regime, most definitely. The global Jihadi haters that seem to swarm throughout a western world that has embraced multiculturalism and been repaid with terror and violence. Oh yes.
The list of our enemies is far longer. And as we have been bitterly disappointed to discover since October 7, so much closer to home. Those who seek to destroy us have been dishonourably mentioned, but what about those enablers? Those who have propped them up, supported them, repeated and regurgitated their antisemitic lies.
Because, make no mistake, they’re not just against us, they’re not just antisemites parading as antiZionists, constantly finding fault with Jews and hiding their unacceptable discrimination under the guise of hating the mere existence of Israel. We know the difference between fair criticism of Israel’s government and Natan Sharansky’s 3Ds - Deligitimization, Demonization and Double standards.
For clarity on the existential imperative of Zionism here is one of my heroes of these times, the mighty Haviv Rettig Gur on the Free Press’ Honestly podcast
No it’s not just that they’re anti-Jew.
It’s not just that they’ve either been or become our mortal enemies. That’s bad enough, disgusting enough, deadly enough. It’s that through their constant braying, lying, rhyming, marching, flag-waving, keffiyeh-toting, campus-encamping, propaganda-repeating, self-righteous-opining, that this war dragged out much longer than it should have. It’s directly due to their actions the death toll (on both sides) is higher than it need be and the suffering of the Palestinian people is far worse than it should be.
I don’t doubt some of the stalling was due to the weakness and self-preservation of the current Netanyahu government.
Let’s not fool ourselves. But to understand all the facets of the political machinations, you would need to have been in the rooms, on the calls and in the meetings held not only on the Israeli side, but the American side too. And the people who would have borne witness to all these events, may amount to no more than two or three - and they sure as shit weren’t you or me.
However, it’s not like we haven’t all heard Hamas and their pals stating openly that their people are martyrs and that the human shield tactic is their main weapon to garner the sympathy and support of those who claim to support justice. Funny then, that the support dilutes to almost nothing in the case of the Kurds, Yazidis, Christians, Uyghar Muslims in China, Sudanese or even the Palestinians so brutally killed and displaced in Syria.
These protestors, media commentators, editors, NGO spokespeople are not just supporting the terrorists, they’re actually part of the plan. Like Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis and their various fringe offshoots, they too are proxies of the Iranian regime. They are factored in by the Ayatollah and his maximalist imperialist war strategy. Not just ‘useful idiots’ as we’ve described them in an attempt to undermine their actions. They - the wonky western social justice warriors - are soldiers of Jihad. This is the path they have chosen. And as such, they have blood on their hands.
If they don’t care about the deaths, displacement, torture and kidnap of Jews, perhaps they might feel a tinge of guilt knowing that they have played a large part in the destruction of Gaza and the deaths of Gazans.
It’s directly due to their constant, self-serving, narcissistic, bleeding heart protesting that timorous governments and their cowardly ministers either backed away from supporting a decisive victory and an end to this ongoing forever war or openly called for ceasefire, without an end to Hamas or the return of hostages. And isn’t it strange then, how deafeningly silent our humanitarian activists have been over the ripping down and defacing of the hostage posters, the savage murders in Israel, the obvious mistreatment of women and men held hostage in Gaza. Or how about the displacement of almost 100,000 Israelis dealing with almost constant bombardment in the north from Hezbollah? That’s resistance, apparently.
Lady Macbeth by Charles Louis Müller
Too much? Can we seriously blame the media, the NGOs, the Academy and their vile professors, the flag-waving weekend wankers out for a nice march alongside genuine Jihadi hate-mongers for more death, dismay and destruction? Yes. You, me, we absolutely can.
These institutions, organisations and individuals have blood on their hands.
They are responsible for thousands of lost lives, destroyed homes, damaged childhoods in Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen, Syria and more. They are the primary source of encouragement for The deadly Hamayatollah. They are the reason Biden was unable to have a summit with Arab leaders in the first week of the war. Remember the fake news story about Israel bombing a hospital killing hundreds of patients that turned out to be an errant Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket that hit the car park? The war may have ended then had it not been for that Hamas story going unchecked, unverified and amplified across the world’s press.
The protests and encampments across USA, UK, Europe and Australia with their bloodlusty chants for Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis. That was all fuel to Sinwar’s fire. How do we know? The Ayatollah and Hamas leadership publicly thanked them on numerous broadcasts for playing their part in the ‘resistance’. And I quote…
“Dear university students in the United States of America, you are standing on the right side of history,” the 85-year-old radical cleric posted on X.
“You have now formed a branch of the Resistance Front and have begun an honorable struggle in the face of your government’s ruthless pressure – which openly supports Zionists,” Khamenei added.
NY POST 29th May 2024
These marches convinced the terrorists that they had the upper hand and didn’t need to make any deals with Israel. They were sure they could not only win the war, but continue to wreak havoc on the Palestinian people.
The very people those self-righteous protestors mourn, grieve and protect are those whose deaths, displacement and destruction they are responsible for.
If it wasn’t yet obvious to every intelligent person with 2 brain cells to knock around, the Palestinian people and their cause mean less than nothing to this IRGC regime, nor the leaders of its proxy armies surrounding Israel. The people are simply collateral damage and the cause is nothing more than a strategic canard, originally invented by the Soviet Union who placed their extremist Egyptian activist, Yasser Arafat as its original leader of the Palestinian Liberation Army.
As an illustrative aside to the disregard for the wellbeing of the ‘Palestinian’ people, Arafat died with a personal fortune valued anywhere between $300million - $1billion. Though some reports value his daughter’s personal wealth at $8billion.
If in doubt, follow the money.
J’accuse motherfuckers.
You’re all guilty as charged. Guilty as sin. And all the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten your little hands.
It’s you, with your ignorance, your miseducation, your indoctrination about the Israel / Palestine question that mosts harms Palestinians. And as a by-product, Israelis and Jews.
It’s you, with your genocide blood libel. Using that term shows not only a deep misunderstanding of its meaning, but demonstrates a millennia-long habit of accusing Jews of bloodthirsty murder and an intentional attempt to insult and further punish those of us whose people have suffered its true consequences.
As many have said before me, every accusation is a confession.
It’s you, with your obsessive focus on Israel when despotic dictatorships round the world expel and execute in their hundreds of thousands, without a whimper from the chattering classes.
It’s you and your ancient, instinctive, vindictive Jew hate.
Now you’re on the list, welcome to the club. Will we forgive? That’s an individual question. But I know that never in my lifetime and hopefully in our children’s children’s lifetimes we will never forget.
People love to throw around the phrase ‘the right side of history’. In this instance, all the distinguished people on the lists above and below will be remembered much like those compliant Germans, Poles, Lithunians, Latvians, Romanians, Dutch, French, Italians and more who somehow, almost magically hypnotically, got swept up and fell in line with the Nazi regime’s vision. For those who think it was just the Germans who perpetrated the worst humanitarian crime of all time, take a look at this morbid map of murder below, from Atlas of the Holocaust (Martin Gilbert).
The list goes something like this…
It’s comprehensive but not exhaustive. Please feel free to add your own.
And in case I haven’t made this point clearly enough, these are not just the enemies of the Jews and the Jewish state. These are the enemies and enablers of great harm to the Palestinian people.
- Governments and politicians across the board, who have either stood by impotently, offered, then retracted their support or openly encouraged and bolstered the Palestinian cause. Special shoutouts to Ireland, Spain, Venezuela. And of course the US AntiZionist representatives like AOC, Ilhan Omer, Rashida Tlaib and their vile ‘squad’ in the party formerly known as The Democrats.
- The irresponsible, biased mainstream media across Europe, the USA, UK, Australia. That could be a whole post on its own.
- The pathetic puppet South African government with their Iranian-backed accusation of genocide against an Israeli government at war with Hamas.
- Speaking of the ridiculous case, let’s throw in the kangaroo courts of the ICC and the ICJ for good measure.
- And coming in closely after are the dictator-sucking clowns at the United Nations and their subsidiaries UN Women, who would rally millions around any women’s cause apart from that of Israeli women and of course UNRWA, who are basically Hamas along with the almost useless UNIFIL who sat blindly as Hezbollah dug terror tunnels within metres of their posts in northern Lebanon. That’s not a smear, it’s documented fact.
- Obviously the obvious Jew hating, terror-funded organisations like SJP, JVP, Within our Lifetime, Code Pink, The People’s Forum and more, who infiltrate colleges, stir up protests and generally spread hate for Jews and Israel.
- I’m tempted to put anyone who has stayed silent on this subject, but today I’m giving them a pass (for now).
- Vocal AntiZionist Jews however are firmly on the list as self-hating, self-serving, ‘please love me even though one day it won’t matter what kind of Jew I am…’. Narcissists like Gabor Maté and his vile sons, encouraging hatred of Jews in Israel. Like the old joke goes:
A Zionist Jew and an AntiZionist Jew walk into a bar. The bartender says, ‘Get out, we don’t serve Jews’.
- The greedy scumbags in their ivory towers at America’s elite universities taking funds from Qatar, Iran, North Korea and Russia. They have sold out the minds and souls of their gullible students, establishing their Middle East departments with freshly installed Jew-hating AntiZionist ideologues who indoctrinate their naive, white-guilt-ridden, privileged students with bullshit critical theory and intersectional Marxist bollix. These kids swallow it up and repeat on their ‘Flood the streets’, lookie-likey, please like me, egotistical, narcissistic, nursery rhyming parades designed to disrupt, annoy and intimidate like a bunch of brain-dead zombies.
- But it’s not just students. It’s the weekend warriors. The bleeding heart white guilt, bored and purpose-seeking protestors… there’s a whiff of Christian morality play about them. The social media cowards and personalities / celebrities wearing badges and posting videos excoriating Israel with no comment on the atrocities, terrorists or hostages taken on October 7th. Nor the promise of Hamas to repeat these deadly attacks again, again and again. How would they respond if the same threat was made to their lives on the borders of Mexico, Canada, Belgium or Wales I wonder? Would resistance still be justified?
-Actually the celebrities deserve a line item all of their own. Here it is. You snivelling overprivileged, no-skin-in-the-game shit stains. The Brits have excelled in this regard. They came in early and hard, with their collective letters to the world while it took the Americans a little longer to don their bloody hand badges / pins at their prize-giving parades. If you don’t know who they are, please feel free to get in touch and I’ll provide you with more detail. Gladly all their comments will be preserved for all history.
Yes, that is a long list. And a lot of blood on a lot of hands. So surely all these people can’t be wrong. Sometimes we have to turn to our wisest teachers for guidance. And in this case, it’s The Rambam, Rabbi Moses ben Maimonides, our great 12th Century Jewish scholar, guide, philosopher, physician, astronomer and all round genius who passes down this wisdom through the ages…
“Truth does not become more true because the whole world agrees with it, nor less so even if the whole world disagrees with it.”
So there we have it. If it’s good enough for The Rambam, it’s good enough for me.
And for my next post, I shall consider how we remedy these issues, rise above the madness and what you can do to feel slightly more empowered to deal with this situation and less despair, frustration and isolation.
Meanwhile, for all you guilty parties, I believe there’s a wire brush and some bleach under the sink you may want to try…
