Ianiv Lowy: Palestinian Statehood, An Israeli Invention – A Result Of Democratic Rule And Tolerance

2:47 PM by 
A Strategic Review by Ianiv Lowy

Ianiv Lowy is an Israeli born Canadian citizen. He has a Masters degree in Government, Counter-Terrorism and Homeland Security studies from the IDC in Herzliyah Israel. To contact him please send emails to ianivl3@gmail.com

By now, most of us are well aware of the recent Palestinian unity deal between rival factions Hamas and Fatah and the subsequent bid to render a Palestinian state by approaching the UN for approval. The PA’s Mahmoud Abbas and Salam Fayyad had sought to sidestep the pressure placed upon them and their administration from the US as well as the Mideast Quartet in reviving peace negotiations with Israel because ultimately hard and bold concessions would have to be made. Hence, the best alternative was to concede to a fellow Palestinian faction, better to concede to people of your own roots rather than the Jewish state right (considering a final peace status would most likely result in recognizing Israel as the Jewish State)? Yet again however, the Palestinian Authority took steps that were too myopic, not considering in the context of things the possible far-run effects that are just now unfolding.



For instance, Prime Minister Fayyad was forced to release a public statement on 03 July 2011, explaining that government employees will only be receiving half their salaries because “international donors were not making good on their pledges”. These international donors consist of fellow Arab nations as well as European nations. However, with the EU’s economic distress looking more and more dim as well as the ‘Arab Spring’ that is forcing Arab nations to recede outsource funding until they solve their own domestic issues, the PA now all of a sudden looks towards their popular Western sources, aka the United States, to bail them out of this new hole. What do we see all of a sudden? The PA knows the US will bail them out but only if they drop their UN bid for statehood. So, they laid down a couple of the usual pre-texts, Israel should withdraw to ’67 borders and halt settlement construction; two issues of which can be discussed in negotiations anyway. But hey, it’s nothing new after all, the PA doesn’t want to be seen speaking to a right-wing government no less than actually getting any closer to reaching a final status deal. I mean, they’ve already sought to overture the Oslo Accords and everything the PA, Israel, the US and the Mideast Quartet worked for up until this point since the early 90’s by heading to the UN for statehood and avoiding contact with Israel at all costs. Well that is a new approach, but what isn’t new is the PA’s lack of appreciation or understanding of how far they have come, since 1967 in terms of just the mere freedom to take such an approach, they could only thank Israel if they did.

Sure, Mahmoud Abbas does not want to be seen as the man who spoke with hard-lined right winger Netanyahu far less than he wants to be put down in the history books as “betraying” his people by agreeing to peace with a right wing Israeli government. Lest we forget that it was a right-wing government that got Egypt to the negotiating table and ultimately signed a peace treaty with them. We also can’t forget that it was also a right-wing former military man and politician, Yitzhak Rabin, that during his tenure as Minister of Defense for the Israeli right-wing Likud party (during the 1st intifada), he laid the ground work for the Israel-Jordan peace treaty, before leaving to head the left-wing Labor party (which won the next national elections and placed him as Prime Minister) and once in place as leader of the Israeli state, finalized the treaty with his Jordanian counterparts. Nonetheless, it’s not about being scared to lose your life like Anwar El Sadat or the fear of domestic assassination like Yitzhak Rabin, it’s more so just the lack of appreciation or mere understanding that thanks to Israel’s annexation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip in 1967, the Palestinian people no longer had to live oppressed, in fear and under strict confines to survive like they did under Egypt’s rule of the Gaza Strip or Jordan’s rule of the West Bank.

Egypt placed military rule over the Gaza Strip from 1957 to 1967. During that tenure, the Palestinians were truly refugees. They were not absorbed as Egyptians nor given any sort of landed immigrant or citizenship status. A constitution was drawn up that gave the Egyptian military commanders full discretion on Gaza. “There were no elections. A puppet government automatically ratified all legislation that the governor brought before it. In 1965, even this façade of local autonomy collapsed when the Egyptian army dismissed the legislature.” Strict curfews were placed, in which no one was allowed outside their homes after 9pm until dawn or they would risk death. Other oppressive techniques were used such as the enforcement of secret police, leaving practically anyone vulnerable to sudden questioning, detainment or imprisonment. Due to their refugee status, most Palestinians were refused salaries or work, were barred from owning land and thousands of young Gaza residents were forced to conscribe to the Egyptian army.



It can only lead one to imagine what kind of intifada or revolution would need to take place to fight for sovereignty against the Egyptian military rule. How many deaths would be required? How many families would be lost? Would it look anything like the revolts happening now in Libya, Syria or Iran? However, before you can even get to those questions, one would need to ask if it would even be possible to speak up and have the freedom of expression, the freedom to gather in groups and march towards Egypt in demand of autonomy or sovereignty, the way they were allowed to do so under Israel’s occupation. Clearly, it’s a possibility the Palestinians only saw a light to after Israel took them over. Israel, the single democratic state in the region, permitted them to assemble their own rule and governance and to take the steps needed so that they no longer have to rely on Israel. Ariel Sharon, considered one of Israel’s strongest hard line right-winger leaders took a bold move in implementing, the first step in the late George W. Bush’s 2003 Road Map plan, and unilaterally at that, to secede from the Gaza Strip. In return, all Israel received was an Iranian-Syrian-Hezbollah proxy neighbor known as Hamas. But Israel’s intentions since 1967 had consistently been to give the Palestinians autonomy and sovereignty; they were lands acquired as a result of war and were not in Israel’s grand scheme of things except to be used diplomatically as bargaining chips to end hostilities with its neighbors. With regards to Jerusalem, it was ruled firstly by the British, then by Jordan which voided UN Resolution 181 that was to ensure Jerusalem be an international city, while also barring any Israelis from entering it hence violating the Armistice agreement that ended the Independence day War in 1949, and then finally Israel; any legal claims to the city by today’s Palestinians is merely a far cry from reality. Regardless, Egypt was more than happy to give up the Gaza Strip to Israel, they no longer had to place military rule over it and the Palestinians were even more ecstatic, they were no longer ruled by dictatorship. They could now return to ‘normal’ civil life without fear.

Observing occupation under Jordan, while not nearly as oppressive, was still futile. Unlike any of the other Arab nations that absorbed the Palestinian refugees (up until today), Jordan was the only one to give them citizenship. However, they still lived in refugee camps and depended almost entirely on UNRWA assistance for survival. UNRWA reported in 1956: "One of the obstacles to the achievement of the General Assembly's goal of making the refugees self-supporting continues to be the opposition of the governments in the area." Sir Alexander Galloway, a UNRWA official who quit in frustration, observed bitterly: "The Arab states don't want to solve the refugee problem. They want to keep it as an open sore, as a weapon against Israel. Arab leaders don't give a damn whether the refugees live or die." So of course, with knowledge of that, Jordan was more than prepared to give up the West Bank.

What happened as a result of Israel’s annexation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem since 1967? The development of roads, towns, cities and state institutions that today has allowed the PA to qualify for a statehood bid with the UN. If only the PA could realize that the reality in which they reside in today and the capacity for statehood that they have built for themselves is a result of being “occupied” by the only democratic state in the region and not their fellow Arabic theocracies and dictatorships, then maybe, just maybe, they would be approaching Israel with unilateral concessions with an open handshake for peace and not the other way around. Perhaps then we could finally lay to rest the popular expression/belief that if you give the Palestinians a hand they will want the whole arm. Israel has done a lot more for their cause whether directly or indirectly than any other nation or state in the region, arguably more than the Palestinians themselves and recognition of that could also lead the PA government to the end of hostilities, fears and mistrusts with Israel.

The Evolvement Of Zionism...And How The World Ignores It

1:38 PM by 
NOTICE: This article I submitted won in the finals of the Pro-Israel blog-off competition.

I did not write this article for Zionists. We are already aware of what we are. It was written for anti-Zionists who think they know what we are. However, if you are neither, then I hope you, too, will find this educational enough to help you decide whether Zionism is the real problem in the world or whether the lack of understanding of what it is in the rest of the world is the real problem.

For as long as I can remember being taught about Zionism as a child and adolescent, I do recall mainly learning about Political Zionism and Practical Zionism. These included; the reasons for Zionism during pre-State of Israel era and the "Return To Zion" (anti-Semitism, Pogroms, the Holocaust); the events leading up to the establishment of the State of Israel; the declaration of Israel's Independence; Socialist Israel (Kibbutzim); the details and success stories of every war that Israel has faced since the 1948 Independence War till the 1982 First Lebanon War; Agricultural and Technological accomplishments; the serious importance of maintaining Israel as a Jewish State, the only Jewish State in the world as well as Jewish unity; and of course the religious aspect of the Jewish ancestral right to the land and the need to return to it...

Being a Jew, the above reasons would become sufficient enough to convince me to make Aliyah. However, since living here for some time I have realized that Zionism has not only maintained its original stance of being "Patriotic to the Jewish State" but that it has also evolved in so many ways...

The definition of Zionism is "the national movement for the return of the Jewish people to their homeland and the resumption of Jewish sovereignty in the Land of Israel, advocated, from its inception, tangible as well as spiritual aims. The term 'Zionism' was coined in 1890 by Nathan Birnbaum." (source)

This definition, as any, just does not express enough the real meaning of what Zionism actually is today and what it means to me and so many others...



Most of the world has a very distorted impression of what Zionism actually is. This distorted view has sparked off the many anti-Zionist movements that we see today...The problem is that their out-of-context view of factual Zionist events from the past has left a stain on their real understanding of Zionism, its evolvement and what modern Zionism has become today... The categorization of Zionism as a form of Nazism, racism, land theft and Arab-oppression is a clear indication that the anti-Zionist movements of today do not understand the events leading up to the establishment of Israel and the events that followed in a relative manner... They also completely ignore the legality of Israels establishment as noted in UN Resolution 181... I believe they have indulged in too much Palestinian/anti-Israel propaganda...

The current misunderstanding of Zionism is that Zionists today are no different than the Zionists prior to the establishment of the State of Israel and after it. This is a false assumption... Our needs and goals have changed drastically. We have learned the lessons of our ancestral Zionists and the founders of our State... We have had the time to iron out the finer details of what we as Zionists want to bring to the world, not only to ourselves... The Zionists of yesterday focused all of their attention and energy on rescuing and protecting the Jewish people by means of Aliyah, defense and then finally the declaration of our Independence along with the founding of a proper moral defense army to protect its own, the IDF... As modern day Zionists, we share this same common goal but now we are not only fighting for our survival as a Jewish people, we are also fighting for the survival of our Jewish State, its legitimacy, and at the same time we are bringing new concepts, ideas and innovations into the world which benefit everyone.

Let us take a look at what yesterday's Zionism entailed and what it meant to the world...

-Zionism Of Hope
-National Zionism
-Patriotic Zionism

Waves Of Aliyot - Zionism Of Hope

  • Original Zionism as an ideology spread throughout various Eastern European and Middle Eastern countries during times of great oppression of the Jews. This lead to the first 5 waves of Aliyot mainly from these countries. The First Aliyah was also known as the "The Farmers Aliyah." These were the people who laid the foundation for some of Israel's (Palestine then) Jewish settlements, such as Rishon LeZion, Rosh Pina, Zikhron Ya'aqov and Gedera. These people also contributed to the development of already established towns such as Petach Tikva and Newe Tzedek.
  • The second wave of Aliyot were idealists who sought to establish a communal agricultural settlement system in Palestine. They were credited with the "Revival of the Hebrew language" and establishing it as the standard language for Jews in Israel. They became the first Zionists to establish the Kibbutz movement and in 1909 founded Degania, the first Kibbutz. Kibbutzim started off as Utopian styled communities based on socialism and Zionism and mainly focused on the development of agriculture and agricultural technology. They later developed into being the pioneers of many Agricultural and Technological developments that we, the world, use today. Although Kibbutzim evolved away from being the Utopian styled communities, their focus today is mainly on the development of technologies and research rather than the need for social development. After the establishment of the State of Israel, this social development played an important role in the successful collaboration of the many different immigrants from various cultures in order to indoctrinate the people into developing a single Jewish Israeli culture, the one that we know today. Considering the size of Israel and the amount of immigration Israel has seen, this indoctrination was an absolute necessity if the State of Israel wanted to successfully accomplish a united Jewish state and identity as well as Israeli nationalism. The second wave also created the first security organization called "HaShomer" which established the foundation of the Haganah, a Jewish paramilitary organization.
  • The third wave of Aliyot was pretty much a continuation of the second wave with one exception, they established some important institutions and organizations such as the General Federation of Workers or Histadrut which has become one of the most powerful institutions in the State of Israel. They also contributed to the founding of the Haganah.
  • The fourth wave of Aliyot did not see much of an influence to the already established movements, organizations and institutions but as they were mainly from middle class business and industrial backgrounds, they were the main reason for the further development of Tel Aviv into the city we know today.
  • The fifth wave of Aliyot, mainly caused by the rise of Nazi Germany, saw a mass influx of academics, doctors, lawyers as well as musicians who founded the Philharmonic Orchestra.  Some chose agricultural settlement and founded new Moshavim and Kibbutzim.
  • The sixth wave of Aliyot (Bricha) took place during the post-World War 2 period. It was a clandestine effort to help the Jewish Holocaust survivors escape Eastern Europe into British Palestine.

These six waves, although very similar in nature, saw the development of the State of Israel from the perspective of needing to escape anti-Semitism from their native countries. Their only intentions as far as Zionism was concerned was self-preservation and Jewish unity. Their reality consisted of nothing more than persecution, hatred, fear, oppression and the need to survive. Zionism was the only solution that would save them from all this. This level and definition of Zionism could be seen as "The Zionism of Hope".

Establishment Of The State And It's Defense - National Zionism

The six waves of Aliyot, which brought much hope to the Jewish people who were being severely oppressed, were in need of something more solid in order to assure their safety and the safety of the future Jewish population living in Palestine at the time.

During the British Mandate of Palestine, Britain would not allow opening Palestine to all Jewish refugees from Europe. In order to force the British to allow this, a Militant Zionist group called Lehi was formed in an effort to forcefully evict the British authorities from Palestine. Even though they were regarded as a "terrorist organization" by the British and later banned by the Israeli government, their intentions were solely to secure the safety of the Jewish refugees from other countries by allowing their immigration. They were, however, small in numbers.

Another Zionist Paramilitary group during the British Mandate of Palestine was called the Irgun. The British banned the immigration of more Jewish refugees from Europe so the intentions of the Irgun were to bring the millions of European Jews to Palestine and prevent them from being oppressed further. The Irgun oversaw the illegal immigration of these European Jews into the Land of Israel. The Irgun was also regarded as a "terrorist organization" by the British but after the establishment of the State of Israel it was relieved of that title. The Irgun sought to protect the Jewish people from the violent uprising of the Arabs towards Jews. Its policies included the right of every Jew to enter Palestine, the need for active retaliation to deter the Arabs and the understanding that only Jewish armed force would ensure the Jewish state. This policy needs to be understood relatively. They were later absorbed into the new Israel Defense Forces after Israel's declaration of Independence in 1948.

One of the larger Zionist paramilitary groups was called the Haganah, previously known as HaShomer, the defense organization established by the second wave of Aliyot. The roles of the Haganah included the protection of the Jewish people within Palestine against the many violent Arab revolts. Its members were trained and prepared for any external military attacks by surrounding countries. The Haganah later became the core of the Israel Defense Forces.

The largest and most successful defense force of the Jewish people and the State of Israel was and still is the Israel Defense Force. From the establishment of the State of Israel until today, Israel has seen numerous wars instigated first by its internal Arab population and then through a continued instigation from its neighbouring countries and people. The need for the IDF became not only a right but also a complete necessity in order to defend the Jewish state. This wave of Zionism received more than 4000 volunteers from 56 countries to help fight in the War of Independence.

The IDF not only defended the Jews within the State but sought to bring the same protection to Jews in other countries. The IDF launched Operation Magic Carpet in 1949 and Operation Moses in 1984 to bring the oppressed Jews from Yemen and Ethiopia to the State of Israel where they could live freely and be permanently protected from any anti-Semitism and persecution.

While there may be some conflicts of interest between the various Zionist paramilitary groups, it is evident that all these groups shared a common goal, the protection of the Jewish people and the Jewish state. The Jews of the time needed this protection and most definitely needed the establishment of the State in order to assure their survival, nothing more. Their reality had moved from needing hope to securing hope by establishing their own national identity. This level and definition of Zionism could be seen as "National Zionism".

Protection Of The State And National Identity - Patriotic Zionism

Since its foundation, the State of Israel has been through many wars both on the battlefield and also in the political arena. Both required the constant dedication and commitment of the local population to defend the borders of the State as well as to fight the many political battles that Israel has faced over the decades and still faces today.

Mandatory military service was and still is a large part of this commitment. Citizens required constant affirmation that protection of the State was and still is Israel's first priority and that the battle to maintain Israels sovereignty and legitimacy is a completely legal and ethical one.

Patriotic Zionism also played a large role in the Zionist movements abroad whereby people such as myself were taught about Israel from a Patriotic perspective. In fact this level of Zionism was the highlight of everything I was taught regarding Zionism and Israel in general. Understanding the necessity to be patriotic to a country that I was not even born in and that I did not even live in yet became an instinct of second nature along with an unquestionable dedication to defend the State of Israel in any way possible from thousands of kilometers away. It's intention, I believe, was also to offer the diaspora Jews an opportunity to be a part of a Jewish national and international identity be it religious or secular. To be a part of the only Jewish State in the world.

The Zionists of yesterday understand the reality of the need to protect the State, as they felt first hand the wrath of the Arab revolts and uprisings before a solid foundation of Israel was established. Their reality moved from securing hope to securing the State and its people in every way possible. This level and definition of Zionism could be seen as "Patriotic Zionism". It is still very much in existence today.

The above forms of Zionism or "Original Zionism" as I like to call it, evolved solely around the preservation and protection of Jews both in and outside of the State of Israel. Protection of Israel's right to exist in the first place. However, people show mixed feelings about Original Zionism, while one shows inspiration and awe the other expresses hatred and disgust. I understand both, relatively, but only agree with the former. My understanding of this hatred towards Original Zionism is the understanding of the reasons people generally express. It usually stems from a serious lack of understanding of Jewish history and the history of Palestine as well as the assumption that Zionism is selfish due to it being almost exclusive to Jews. Before the State of Israel this assumption was accurate. Typical expressions such as "What is so special about Jews that only Jews should be saved?" arise. My response: "Jewish oppression has been the highlight of history. Nobody has ever and will ever look after the Jews, only Jews will look after the Jews, Zionism is the only thing that embraced the Jews. All actions to defend one's own family is deemed selfish, we just have a bigger family, wouldn't you do the same if it was your family in need of being saved?" Since the States founding, this assumption remains false.

Today we see many new forms of Zionism or New Age Zionism which has taken on not only Israel but also on the world. We have moved from the "selfish" act of needing to be saved and protected from the hands of anti-Semitism to the selfless want to bring all of our wonderfully creative ideas to the world and we have done just that.

Let us take a look at what Todays Zionism is and what it means to the world...

-Sympathetic Zionism
-Philanthropic Zionism
-Social Zionism
-Green Zionism
-Idealistic And Visionary Zionism




Helping Our Enemies - Sympathetic Zionism

Zionist Israel is probably the only country in the world and in history that has ever cared for, aided and assisted its own arch enemy on a daily basis for years on end.
  • Israeli settler wants to help Syrians with humanitarian aid. He says: "As neighbors, and a people who take pride in our Jewish values, Israel can assist in the form of humanitarian and medical aid and benefit from the Syrian revolt."
  • Palestinian children who had been diagnosed with cancer had the opportunity to visit Israel's ski resort in the Hermon, they were accompanied by their families and had a fun filled day with the IDF's Alpine Unit.
  • An IDF paramedic helped a Palestinian woman give birth inside a military ambulance. She called for help and the IDF responded to it even though the area she was in was unreachable by an ambulance. The IDF paramedics comment on this: "I just reacted to the situation as any human being would."
  • An Israeli helps Palestinians get access to better medical treatment. His comment: "Regardless of whether political or religious, I think that we are all human beings."
  • An Israeli doctor extends helping hand to sick Palestinians. The doctor's comments: "When we are coming to pick up the sick kids, the (Palestinian and Israeli) checkpoint managers help us a lot."
  • Israeli companies to help build a Palestinian city in the West Bank city of Rawabi.
  • Israel helps 300 Palestinians living in Libya, whose lives are endangered, into the Palestinian Authority-controlled area.
  • A Kibbutz built a dairy farm for Palestinians in Hebron.  A Palestinian said: "We turned to Kibbutz Afikim because the Israeli milk industry is No. 1 in the world, and we are happy to be able to use the knowledge and modernization of our neighbors to help us increase the amount of milk in the PA."
  • The IDF helps transfer Palestinian cucumbers.
  • An IDF soldier and settlers save a Palestinian baby's life. The soldier said: "They know we have a skilled medical team here, and in any case of accident or injury they arrive and we help them."
  • The Ministry of Agriculture helps Palestinian farmers improve their techniques. A Palestinian doctor said: "We live in the same climate and under the same conditions so we don’t try to avoid receiving help from the accumulated Israeli experience."
  • The IDF sends 14,000 tons of aid to Gaza.
  • The IDF sends humanitarian aid to Gaza during IDF operation to crackdown on Hamas. The aid was up 900% .
  • Israel helped about 150 Palestinians escape from Gaza after a bloody Hamas crackdown in Gaza. They were assisted in being relocated via Israel to Jericho.
  • Israelis help Palestinians harvest olive crops. One says: "I think what we do now is the way of peace. Palestinians and Jews work hand in hand on the trees and pick fruit together."
  • Israelis help Palestinian veterinarians fight avian flu. A doctor's comment: "This support sometimes helps us provide the Palestinians with services without charging them."
  • 1976, the IDF opens a section of the Lebanese border, known as The Good Fence, to allow medical and other aid to residents of southern Lebanon who stood in need.
The list goes on...

Which country, army or ideology will help its own enemies in wartimes and in moments of peace? A Zionist one!

Helping The Sick And Needy - Philanthropic Zionism

Zionist Israel helps more countries and people in need of medical and charity assistance than any other country in the world.
Zionist Israel is usually the first country to respond to natural disaster situations than any other country on the planet.

Helping With Social Development And Education - Social Zionism

Zionist Israel does everything it can to develop social understanding, skills and education between various cultures and religions including it's own enemies.
Which other country, that has as many enemies as we do, offers this amount of social and educational development to anyone who needs it including its own enemies? A Zionist one!

Helping The Environment - Green Zionism

Zionist Israel cares about more than people, it cares about the environment too, which either way directly or indirectly affects people anywhere on the planet.
Which country has ever developed and shown as much interest in environmental technology, to be shared with the world, as Israel has? A Zionist one!

Helping The Medical, Technological And Scientific World Develop - Idealistic And Visionary Zionism

Zionist Israel cares for people and their environment, and at the same time cares for every important scientific and technological field that exists in order to improve the lives of everyone on the planet via research and development.
Which country has shown as much skill and innovation in the scientific, medical and technological fields in order to change the world for the better? A Zionist one!



I still do not know how so many people in this world can completely ignore the true meaning of Zionism and how it has progressed from being a "selfish" ideology as seen from an outsiders perspective (originally exclusive to Jews during times when it was absolutely needed) to being a completely selfless reality that shows absolute care and concern for its own people and people of every country/culture/race/religion in the world. Ask yourself this question, would you not do the same for your own family and then once your own family is safe from harms way would you not want to do the same for everyone else?

It is time the anti-Zionist movements of the world start to wake up and realize their own ignorance and the lack of understanding of Zionism that they preach to their followers. They need to realize that we cannot take full responsibility for the actions of our forefathers, we also cannot judge their actions in a negative light without fully understanding the realities they came from and the absolute necessity to never re-live those experiences. The only people alive today that completely understand that reality are the survivors of the Holocaust as well as the original pioneers of our country who gave their blood, sweat and tears to defend the people from the constant Arab uprisings. Israel is here, Zionism exists but Zionism is no longer about the need to have our own State, we have our own State whether the world likes it or not, Zionism is about what we can bring to the world through our own people and State.

If Zionism is Nazism then please tell me what good Nazism ever brought to the world besides being banished? Then compare it to the enormous amount of things that Zionism has done for its own people and the world and you will find that you can never mention that awful word (Nazism) in one breath with Zionism again.

This being said, we can, and should take responsibility for our actions today and the actions of our future. Zionism is there for everyone, it should be the answer to every world issue and I do hope that one day it will be seen in this light.

Zionism has evolved! It is time for the rest of the world to acknowledge its evolvement!

Am Zionist Israel Chai!




A Film Unfinished....Continues Today

1:37 PM by 
NOTICE: This article I submitted won in the semi-finals of the Pro-Israel blog-off competition.

During Yom Hashoah this year I managed to watch the latest documentary on the Nazis titled "A Film Unfinished", it inspired me to write this article. It is about a 60 minute reel of raw footage that was discovered in an East German archive labeled "Das Ghetto" and which portrays the life of Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto of 1942. The film not only shows the life of Jews within the ghetto, but it deliberately intends to show the extreme differences between rich and poor Jews. The differences, however, had all been staged to service the needs of the Nazi propaganda machine.

To quote parts from the documentary trailer: "In 1942, one of the only known films of the Warsaw Ghetto was shot. Scenes of Jewish life were documented. For decades after World War II, this footage was presented as truth. Until 40 years later, when a missing reel was discovered..."

"This is the story of a film that was never completed. A film designed to service propaganda for the third Reich, that empire that knew so well to document its own evil."

"Let the world see what a paradise the Jews lived in."



In short, the documentary exposes the methods in which the Nazis intended to show the general German population and the world how "well" Jews were living in the Ghettos, even though the scenes were staged, and then to show how the Jews that were living "well" did "not care" about the poor, starving or already dead Jews at all... Other staged scenes included leaving dead bodies out in the streets and then having "rich" Jews walk past the bodies and not even budge an eyelid or show any concern, as though Jews do not care that the dead lay in their streets... Next they would show scenes of the "rich" having a proper Jewish burial as opposed to the poor who were just dumped into mass graves one on top of the other, to "show" that Jews do not value the lives of the poor...

It then moves to another level whereby they intended to show the world the "barbaric" rituals of Jews with regards to circumcision, keeping in mind that the Germans of the time and most non-Jews did not circumcise their babies, so seeing this could easily disgust people and lead them to believe that Jews are inhumane, primitive and barbaric in our practices...Furthermore, they showed staged scenes of poor religious men in a Mikve, naked, with "rich" women who were also naked, in an attempt to portray our religious practices as though they involve orgies of some sort, of course men and women do not go into a Mikve at the same time or place and there is no such religious practice that involves orgies of any sort...

Once the Nazis had convinced the general German population that the Jews were living "well" in the ghettos, this would ease the minds of the Germans to not ask any further questions, moreover once they convinced the Germans that Jews were "inhumane and barbaric", this would be a reason for them to exterminate the Jews and therefore have the support of the country to do so...

(I urge you all to watch this documentary!)

Now let's fast forward to current times.

Here are some short examples of the continued use of anti-Semitic propaganda, I say short because I could literally write a thesis with the full amount of propaganda that is currently out there...

Pallywood & The Paparazzi

The use of visual propaganda rose up again with the invention of "Pallywood" and other forms of visual propaganda which I will go into in a moment...

Pallywood is a coinage used to describe alleged cases of "media manipulation, distortion and outright fraud by the Palestinians and other Arabs ... designed to win the public relations war against Israel." It was publicized by Richard Landes who produced a documentary titled "Pallywood: According to Palestinian Sources"...

The documentary exposes the staged scenes which the Palestinians were setting up with the intention of misleading the media and the world into believing that a situation was far worse than it actually was and/or also staging violent situations that were entirely made up and acted from beginning till end... All "media" coverage was done by freelance photographers and cameramen not official news sources...

Examples of this included the "Muhammad al-Durrah incident" where a staged scene was set to make as though the IDF had deliberately fired upon and killed Jamal al-Durrah and his 12 year old son Muhammad al-Durrah... This was filmed by a France 2 freelance cameraman but France 2 deliberately left out a very important part of the video which was discovered and debunked by "The 2nd Draft" in this video... The part that was left out was at a point where the boy was supposedly already dead yet he quickly peeks to see what he needs to do next...

The articles went viral about this incident all around the world, BBC reported "Boy becomes Palestinian martyr", The Guardian reported "Making of a martyr", the list goes on yet even after the multitude of evidence provided including that of C.A.M.E.R.A.'s investigations, there are still media centers and blogs recalling the incident as an act of the "evil Zionist regime" to this day... Youtube is infested with the original edited and unanalyzed version of the video and pictures, with titles such as "The cold blooded murder of 12-year old Mohamed Al-Durrah" and "The murder of 12-year old Mohamed Al-Durrah that shook the world", Facebook too is overwhelmed with tribute pages and remembrance pages on this incident and while this incident has already been debunked and hopefully laid to rest it is still and I quote "Israel's greatest PR failure" because no matter whether the IDF was involved in this or not, the damage is done!

This well executed (no pun intended) plan made Israel look bad just as much as Nazi Germany was fated to be successful, and even if the intention was later discovered to be fake, false or misdirected, the initial image always sticks in peoples’ minds especially one of disgust… and no matter how much proof we can later offer that debunks the incident, it will never convince people who have already been convinced enough by seeing the first video…. anything else becomes a conspiracy theory or a cover-up to them…

This one incident became an icon of hatred towards Israel, all the Muslim countries had postage stamps honoring al-Durrah, Daniel Pearl was killed to avenge his "death", Osama Bin Laden used the incident to incite before 9/11 and streets, squares & academies have been named after him... Al-Durrah was even referred to as "a tiny sleeping Jesus" - [Al-Quds, May 25, 2001] - He became a poster child for the Intifada...

Pallywood strikes again and again...

"Jesus was Palestinian", "the Palestinians are Jesus"

Palestinians have gone as far as claiming that Jesus & Moses were Muslim Palestinians and that Abraham was the first Muslim Palestinian, the use of self-propaganda became a powerful influence on the people to justify their own existence, history and heritage and in turn to make Jews look bad once again for supposedly "killing Jesus their Messiah" as well as making the claim that we are all "fake Jews" except for the "Hebrews or Israelites"...

Attempts to fabricate their own history to convince people that they are descendants of "Jesus the Palestinian" have gone as far as calling Jesus "the first Palestinian Shahid – Martyr for Allah," [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, January 17, 2005]... Now whether Jesus was technically called a Palestinian or not, because this area was known as Palestine, the fact is that they are rewriting their own history as a direct connection to the Jewish Jesus which is of course impossible... Palestine was only named Palestine 136 years after Jesus' death as part of Rome's plan to cut the Jews' ties to their Land of Israel... Palestine was made up of Palestinian Jews, Muslims and Christians. Palestinian is not a culture, religion or race of people, at least not the same as the Palestinians that we know of today...

Quotes such as the following are drummed into the minds of the Palestinians:
  • "We must not forget that (Jesus) Messiah, may peace be upon him, is Palestinian, the son of Mary the Palestinian, who is sanctified by hundreds of millions of believers in this world." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, November 18, 2005]
  • "It was quite natural that the Palestinians rose to save their sanctuaries [in Nazareth] without anyone thinking there is a difference between a Christian and a Muslim… since in the Palestinian situation, the lord Messiah [Jesus] and his mother [Mary] are both Galileans and Palestinians …"[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, March 9, 2006]
  • "The Palestinian Galilee village of Kfar Kana takes pride in the fact that in [the village] the Palestinian Messiah succeeded to turn water into wine." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, December 14, 2004]
  • "…And a child from the De’haisha refugeecamp will shout: "Yes, we have won, just as the prophets and [Jesus’] Apostles won," and the shahids will cry, ‘We shook the palm trees alongside Lady Earth and the lady of the people, the Virgin Mary, and with her son the first Palestinian Shahid." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, January 17, 2005]
  • Artist: "Our struggle today against the other side is an eternal one. It can be said that it started 2,000 years ago and continues until today. I demonstrate this through the figure of Jesus… The Israeli soldiers are wearing army uniforms while Jesus has nothing except for the truth. When they searched him at the entrance of Jerusalem, they found a stone, a piece of bread and fish and he was cuffed. This is the Palestinian from the beginning of the struggle until the end." [PA TV, July 21, 2000]
The mere belief that these people are of a heritage and descent that they are not, becomes a major problem when they have convinced the rest of the world, who actually believes them, that everything they say is true because they believe it with such conviction... This then reassures the Pro-Palestinian mob that "Palestinians" definitely have ancestral rights to this land and possibly others, dating back to the times of Abraham, Moses and Jesus... this fuels the support for the Palestinians "struggle" to get "their" land back...

The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion

"The Protocols of the Elders of Ziyon is a fabricated document; its content is demonstrably fictional in its entirety. It was originally produced in Russia between 1897 and 1903, possibly by Pyotr Ivanovich Rachkovsky, head of the Paris office of the Russian Secret Police, and unknown others. It is a fraudulent, anti-Semitic text purporting to describe a Jewish plan for achieving global domination."

This famous piece of propaganda was used continuously to demonize the Jews and is still in use today, the so called protocols have even been published online by many anti-Semitic websites such as JewWatch.com and BibleBelievers.org.au...

Youtube has its fair share of propaganda videos "exposing the truth" about Jews by using the Protocols as a tool to convince people of the Jewish and Zionist "conspiracies" such as world domination, mass media control, control of the banking systems and more... Facebook is no different... It is sadly amusing what these people come up with... So far only a few have put in the effort to debunk this hoax...

The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum stated the following: "In 1921, the London Times presented conclusive proof that the Protocols were a "clumsy plagiarism." The Times confirmed that the Protocols had been copied in large part from a French political satire that never mentioned Jews -- Maurice Joly's Dialogue in Hell Between Machiavelli and Montesquieu (1864). Other investigations revealed that one chapter of a Prussian novel, Hermann Goedsche's Biarritz (1868), also "inspired" the Protocols."

Here is a list of some of the times this book has been used for propaganda purposes:
  • 1920: The Protocols were published in Poland, France, England, and the United States. These editions blame the Russian Revolution on Jewish conspirators and warn of Bolshevism spreading to the West.
  • 1920: Automaker Henry Ford's Dearborn Independent published The International Jew, an Americanized version of the Protocols to which he later apologized for doing so. It is available online to read.
  • 1933: Adolf Hitler made "good" use of it, he published 23 editions of it before World War II began.
  • 1935: A Swiss court fined two Nazi leaders for circulating a German-language edition of the Protocols in Berne, Switzerland.
  • 1938: "Radio priest" Father Charles E. Coughlin serialized the Protocols in his newspaper, Social Justice.
  • 1960: The Protocols were featured in an article published by Salah Dasuqi, military governor of Cairo, in "al-Majallaaa", the official cultural journal.
  • 1974: The Protocols were published in India under the title "International Conspiracy Against Indians".
  • 1974: Idi Amin, the President of Uganda from 1971 to 1979, cited the book as evidence of a Jewish conspiracy to take over the world, and as justification for his self-proclaimed plans to destroy Israel. He reveals this in an interview during the documentary "Idi Amin Dada".
  • 1985: An English-language edition of Protocols was published by the Islamic Propagation Organization and issued in Iran.
  • 1997: The Protocols become a best-seller in Syria, it was exhibited and sold at the Damascus International Book Fair. It was then reprinted in 2004 and 2005.
  • 1999: It's been made available on Amazon to purchase since 1999.
  • 2002: Egyptian satellite television broadcasts a 41-part miniseries "Horseman Without a Horse", which is based largely on the Protocols.
  • 2003: A 30-part television miniseries called "Al Shatat (The Diaspora)", produced in Syria, was broadcasted on Hizbullah's Al-Manar TV. The series depicts a “global Jewish government,” as described in the Protocols.
  • 2003: An exhibition of holy books of monotheistic religions at the Alexandria Library in Egypt includes a copy of the Protocols next to the Torah. UNESCO issues a public denunciation of the Alexandria Library exhibition.
  • 2004: The Protocols are published in Okinawa, Japan.
  • 2005: "Al Shatat (The Diaspora)" airs in Jordan during the festival of Ramadan.
  • 2005: A Spanish-language edition of the Protocols, published in Mexico City, says that whether or not the Protocols are authentic, history shows that Zionists intend to dominate the world.
  • 2005: An edition of the Protocols was authorized by the Syrian Ministry of Information, claims that the Elders of Zion coordinated the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States.
  • 2006: Saudi Arabian schoolbooks contain explicit summaries of the Protocols as factual.
  • 2008: Hamas Libel: Protocols of the Elders of Zion - Jews Planned The Holocaust.
  • 2011: The Charter of Hamas explicitly refers to the Protocols, accepting them as factual and makes several references to Freemasons as one of the "secret societies" controlled by "Zionists".
  • 2011: It's also available online to read.
The list goes on and will continue to go on as a powerful propaganda tool against Jews, Israel and Zionists!

Israeli "Apartheid"

Since the term "Israeli Apartheid" was invented, vast amounts of anti-Israel campaigns increased in numbers with intent to directly compare the real South African Apartheid regime to the current Israeli regime... It was in fact stated back in 2004 by UN agent John Dugard that the Israeli "Apartheid regime in territories is worse than in South Africa"....

"In a 2007 report, United Nations Special Rapporteur for Palestine John Dugard stated that 'elements of the Israeli occupation constitute forms of colonialism and of apartheid, which are contrary to international law' and suggested that the 'legal consequences of a prolonged occupation with features of colonialism and apartheid' be put to the International Court of Justice. South Africa's statutory research agency the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) stated in a 2009 report that 'the State of Israel exercises control in the [Occupied Palestinian Territories] with the purpose of maintaining a system of domination by Jews over Palestinians and that this system constitutes a breach of the prohibition of apartheid.' In 2010 United Nations Special Rapporteur for Palestine Richard A. Falk reported that criminal apartheid features of the Israeli occupation had been entrenched in the three years since the report of his predecessor, John Dugard." (source)

The so-called "Israeli Apartheid" libel has spawned campaigns such as:
Once again the list goes on a mile long... Prominent Palestinians, Jewish anti-Zionists, South Africans, Americans and Europeans have been at the forefront of these campaigns. 

In 2010 "Over 200 concerned Israelis, many of them of South African origin, attended a panel on 'Combating Israel’s Delegitimization: Debunking the Apartheid Myth'" - Many others have put in the efforts to debunk this myth, people such as Dr. Mitchell Bard and David Horowitz who has been at the forefront of campaigning against the "Israeli Apartheid" libel and also an Israeli Arab woman and man decided to speak out against this myth...

Yet no matter how many of us attempt to debunk this myth, the damage is already done... The usual suspects, Youtube and Facebook, are of course overwhelmed with propaganda footage and campaigns of how Israel is supposedly an Apartheid regime, even Enrique Iglesias agrees...

This has become the "latest and greatest" tactic to use in the fight to delegitimize Israel by demonizing Jews who support Israel, Zionists, Israelis and well truthfully any Jews in general too but many will argue that they "love" Jews but hate Israelis or Zionists, which is true for some, but many who are actually anti-Semitic, hide behind the "political correctness" of being anti-Zionist rather than anti-Semitic...

Illogical arguments in support of Israel being an Apartheid state usually go something like "Jews are against Israel's occupation and against Israeli Apartheid"- this to them translates into meaning that because some Jews are against Israel and do believe that Israel is an Apartheid regime that therefore the majority of Jews and Israelis MUST be wrong... Many a time I have seen this line used and it holds no weight when it is analyzed properly, it is a meaningless argument like saying "some Americans hate America because of the Iraq War therefore America is wrong and should be put on trial"- As absurd as this sounds, people use these as arguments all the time in defense of their belief that "Israel is evil"... This is a direct result of the "Israeli Apartheid" propaganda that is out there...

I used to live in Apartheid South Africa, I grew up there and witnessed many incidents of real Apartheid on a daily basis. I now live in Israel for many years and I can assure you that there is no Israeli Apartheid, there never has been and never will be! During the Apartheid we, as Jews, were not allowed to go to certain places such as country clubs where they had signs stating "No Blacks, No Dogs, No Jews", you will never see a sign in Israel preventing an Arab whether Muslim or Christian from entering, not even at the Western Wall (Kotel). Perhaps I am hallucinating when I go to the shopping mall and see well dressed happy Arabs in the same shopping malls that I go to or when I visit the Tel Aviv University and see many Arab students & professors walking around the campus without being hassled by anyone... Yet people will then argue that it is the Palestinians who are suffering from the "Apartheid" due to the wall but this too makes no logical sense because Palestinians are not a part of Israel AT ALL, they have their own governing body, laws, rules and regulations to follow that have nothing to do with Israel in the least... they are no different to Jordanians or Egyptians in that they are not a part of Israel so therefore have to pass through border control points anyway if they wish to enter & exit Israel, what is the difference? Every border has a fence, this particular one has a wall, where is the difference besides cosmetically? Even Egypt has a wall on the border of Gaza but that is "apparently" acceptable...

All of this propaganda sparked off the "Boycott Israel Campaigns"

"The Satanic Talmud & The Synagogue Of Satan & The Zionist Illuminati"


Another new, or maybe not so new, form of anti-Semitic propaganda is the comparison between the Talmud, Kaballah and Satanism / Devil Worship as well as a continued belief (Protocols) that the Jews are actually the Illuminati who hide behind the world and seek to control it or who have been controlling it for thousands of years like puppet masters... It has gone viral!

While no one is really sure who first came up with this preposterous idea that Jews are Satanic or members of the so called Illuminati, but the conspiracy theorists out there have really got the hang of this one and have managed to "convert" many an ignorant person into believing this total nonsense....

An example of one such person is "Brother Nathanael" who is an Orthodox Christian street evangelist that warns people of the dangers of the Jews being in control of the world... He started the "Brother Nathanael Foundation" and also runs the notorious "Real Zionist News" blog and interestingly enough was supposedly born a Jew but converted to Christianity to escape from the "evil claws" of Judaism... His Youtube videos, of which he has many, show him explaining why he left Judaism and how to break the Zionist power... His followers have been led to believe that all Jews, except ones that convert to Christianity, are evil Satan worshipers and must be stopped... As candid as he looks, speaks and acts is as dangerous as this man actually is...

Our next person who took a stab at convincing people that Jews are Satanic is "Andrew Carrington Hitchcock" who is the author of "The Synagogue Of Satan" and who has also managed to have his book published and made available for sale on Amazon...

I won't go too much into these 2 deranged people but I will say that they have both influenced the minds of ignorant people in many ways... For one Texe Marrs, the author, was inspired by Andrew Carrington's Synagogue of Satan as well as Youtube, once again, is full of "proof" that "Jews are evil Satan worshippers"...

These 2 people have opened the door to many Christian fundamentalists who believe that the Jews killed Jesus as well as white supremists, to enhance their belief that Jews are, yes I said it again "evil Satan worshipers"... I cannot begin to tell you how many arguments I have had with these people online to try get them to see the ridiculousness of this belief of us being what they claim we are...

I need not go into detail on the claims of Jews being "The Secret Covenant of the Jewish Secret Society Known As the Order of the Illuminati", there is just way too much out there on this topic as well...

I am sure you get the point of all of this by now but I did feel the need to go into as much detail as I did above so that the people out there who may not be aware of all of these things, as much as I am aware, can at least get a taste of the very real "Unfinished and continued" use of anti-Semitic propaganda that the world has to offer on a daily basis, at the click of a mouse and also for entertainment...

All of the above examples are propaganda tricks and fabrications of the truth that are used only to re-assure people’s anti-Semitic approach or to convince "new recruits" in the same way that the Nazis used false films and other methods to convince their own people that killing the Jews was the right solution... Today it is no different, whether it means killing the Jews or destroying Israel, there is no difference whatsoever... Israel is a Jewish homeland, always was and always will be and the need that these people have to destroy Israel is directly connected to the reality that Israel is Jewish, no other reason whatsoever can excuse the need for all of the above, even Yunis al Astal, a member of the Palestinian Authority parliament agrees...

The film unfinished continues today....
