I think this Substack is mis-named. It should be: “The Idiot”.
Of course those kindly Hamas militants didn’t and wouldn’t rape Israeli women! They respect women so much that they treat them like they own them - you wouldn’t damage your own property, would you? Makes no sense. They respect women so much that they require they wear robes that cover everything but their eyes. Now, you know how hot the desert sun is, they’d get badly sunburned if and maybe even skin cancer if their owners . . . I mean, husbands didn’t love and respect them so much. Men of Islam love and respect women so much that they can marry more than one, to spread their love and respect as broadly as possible. And they protect women, too. If they suspect a woman has done anything to embarrass them, they can kill the her! It’s in her best interest so that she does not have to live with the shame that she brought upon her husband or family, real or imagined. They love and respect women so much that they insist on accompanying them everywhere they go in public! You never know when a pack of their

Women are so
Important to their culture that they wont let them waste their time going to schoo , determine who they want to marry
The viewpoint you expressed here is rooted in harmful stereotypes and misunderstandings of both Islam and Middle Eastern culture. Firstly, conflating Hamas—a specific political entity—with Islam and Muslims at large is not only incorrect but deliberately inflammatory. Islam, like any major religion, spans diverse cultures, traditions, and individual beliefs. Many Muslim women around the world hold positions of leadership, activism, education, and professional success, proudly choosing their own paths.
The assertion about the attire of Muslim women misunderstands and misrepresents the reality that clothing choices vary widely among Muslim women globally. Many women who wear hijab or coverings do so voluntarily, as an expression of personal faith, identity, or cultural heritage—not as a sign of ownership or oppression.
Islam as a religion explicitly forbids violence against women and does not sanction so-called "honor killings," which are cultural practices condemned by Islamic scholars and human rights advocates worldwide. Using isolated cultural practices or actions by extremist groups to portray an entire religion or community is inaccurate and intentionally misleading.
It's critical to condemn violence, oppression, and abuse wherever it occurs—but weaponizing stereotypes and misinformation to denigrate an entire group of people only perpetuates division and misunderstanding. Respecting women's rights and dignity means genuinely listening to their voices and experiences—not exploiting their struggles to justify prejudice and racism.
Its nice that backward cultures can rely on Western womyn to
Split hairs and deny realities and excuse barbarity (to what end I have no idea) and dissemble about nuance and complexity to deny what is plain on its face. Its
Like saying that Islamic cultures dont have problems spawning terrorists because not all
Muslims are terrorists. While true,
It really misses the point. Like the pathetic “some women who wear the hijab do so voluntarily”. Sure they do, but that doesn’t mean shit when they are acclimated to a culture and it seems normal,
Leading to the next fallacy that this “normality” means equality. Equal they are not.
I’m dealing in sweeping generalities that have basis in fact, and no, they wont and I wont accommodate the
Range of practices, beliefs and
Experiences across broad populations because that’s a cheap trick to side-step what majorities are doing. For instance, “Islam as a religion forbids violence against women.” Of course it does - do
We even need to play this pathetic game? Tell that to Afghan women, especially when they’re buried to the neck while a bunch of inbred retards pulverize their skulls with rocks.
Oh yes, lets talk about strict first-cousin marriage in Islamic cultures. Any explanation as to why genetic anomalies are so prevalent in Islamic
societies? Look at the disability numbers for Pakistanis in England, then lets talk.
Stop this relativistic bullshit. I’ve so had it with the hand wringing and excuse-making. Your oh-so sensitive response reeks of a sensitive Western pathology that refuses to call things what they are. Message denied.
Islamophobia often finds fertile ground among misogynistic men, precisely because both forms of bigotry share common roots: fear of losing dominance and a deep-seated need to dehumanize others. The louder these individuals shout in defense of their prejudice, the more apparent their inability for rational thought becomes. Bigotry thrives on ignorance, fear, and an inflated sense of entitlement. Rational discourse diminishes rapidly when one insists on defending the indefensible, leaving only empty rhetoric and hostility in its wake. It's essential to recognize this connection, challenge it, and call it out clearly—because silence only empowers ignorance.
Oh Christ. The useless term “Islamophobia” coupled with the insinuation that I’m misogynist. You can do better than that, can’t you? I bristle at Islamic culture BECAUSE I am deeply offended at the way it treats women. I have a clear, and wholly justified preference for Western culture. Call it whatever the hell you want - your little insults about loss of dominance and the need to dehumaminze, bigotry ignorance, all that bullshit- these are all mechanisms the Western left uses to avoid reality and make themselves feel better, superior to the great unwashed. I don’t receive a penalty for dealing with reality, and I never will allow it. Your “rational discourse” amounts to obfuscation and excuse-making, for rational discourse would be straight-up about human nature and how it manifests in different situations/cultures. Tell me what the cultures of the Middle East produce? Cars? Computers? You’re fortunate enough to live in a society where such profound mistakes are insulated from real consrewuence. Medical equipment? Industrial equipment? What do they export? The insults that Western simp libs throw around do not touch me, because they are all empty. Here’a a little question for you: Are biological men who believe they are women, or who sincerely want to be a woman, can they become an actual, physical woman?
Presumably you are asking that question after your rant because you are somehow confused yourself, assuming the role of the Dick Tracey savage villian, you cannot even pubically show yourself, or express yourself in a honest way. There are support groups for those who struggle with identity, I believe they should be equipped to answer your gender confusion queries, I certainly am not.
Additionally your knowledge on the topic of polygamy is lacking —specifically, polygyny (one man marrying multiple women)—is historically and currently sanctioned within several religions and cultures worldwide. Here’s a concise overview:
Religions that historically or doctrinally sanction polygyny:
Islam
Islam allows men to marry up to four wives, provided each is treated fairly and equally. This practice is mentioned explicitly in the Quran (Surah An-Nisa 4:3). However, many Muslims today practice monogamy, and polygyny is subject to cultural, legal, and economic constraints.
Mormonism (Fundamentalist groups)
While mainstream Mormonism (Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) officially discontinued polygamy in 1890, certain fundamentalist sects still practice polygyny, primarily in the United States and Canada.
African Indigenous Religions and Traditions
Several indigenous African religious and cultural traditions allow polygyny, viewing it as a sign of prosperity, status, or familial strength. It is widely practiced in various countries across sub-Saharan Africa.
Certain Hindu Traditions
Historically, polygyny was practiced within certain Hindu communities, although it is now legally prohibited in India. Some ancient texts reference kings and prominent figures with multiple wives.
Judaism (historically)
Historically, Judaism allowed polygyny (as seen in biblical accounts of patriarchs). Polygyny was explicitly banned among Ashkenazi Jews by Rabbi Gershom in the 11th century. Today, it remains extremely rare but is occasionally practiced in certain Sephardic and Mizrahi communities in countries where it's permitted, such as Yemen and Morocco.
Countries where polygyny is legally or culturally accepted (not exhaustive):
Africa
Nigeria (particularly among Muslim-majority northern regions)
Senegal
Mali
Sudan
Somalia
Niger
Kenya (for Muslims and traditional communities)
South Africa (under customary law)
Middle East & Asia
Saudi Arabia
United Arab Emirates
Qatar
Yemen
Afghanistan
Pakistan (restricted but culturally accepted in tribal areas)
Indonesia (legal but regulated(
Polygyny is widely banned or legally restricted in Europe, North America, Latin America, China, Russia, India, and most developed nations.
Even in countries where it's permitted, polygyny is often subject to conditions related to financial ability, fairness, and consent.
Polygyny remains a debated topic, with strong arguments both for and against it culturally, religiously, and legally around the world. What it is not, is unique to Islam. You might also consider for comparison the typical western male who has not a moral nor legal obligation to care for the females he shares intimate relations with. Taking pleasure, making use of any willing body male female or other to satisfy his lusts, abandoning them like an old pair of boxers, at tge end of their usdfulness. Or view from another viewpoint not so extreme, a couple is married with a couple of children, one or other gets bored and "plays away". No one need know, but we have all seen there is a shift in that family, the children suffer along with the husband and wife. What western society tries to ignore is the spiritual cost to selfishness.
To be fair, this is consistent with the history of Israeli propaganda. Remember the ‘ 40 beheaded babies’, a debunked claim that Biden stupidly repeated. Nothing Israel says can ever be accepted in the absence of corroborative, third-party evidence.
Not a surprise. There are Zionists and Zionists supporters out there who will attempt to spread any kind of shit as propaganda. Israel has doing it for years.
I am so sick of 77 years of lies from the Zionist Genocidal entity (aka Israel). There is hard evidence that the Neo-Nazi Jews perpretrated most, if not all of these crimes back in 1948 to scare the Palestinians out of their homes, away from their towns and off THEIR land. Avi Shlaim's latest book details how Mossad targetted and bombed Iraqi/Arab Jews to scare them into the land of "Israel". Or how the Christian Zionists collaborated with the German Nazis to transfer desirable (white) European Jews to Palestine.
The more l learn, the more I feel inclined to deny the Jewish Holocaust because l can no longer believe a thing they say. The USA hosting Netenyahu again and giving billions of dollars and tons of weapons, build concentration camps, and block UNRWA Aid so they can continue their genocide is quite frankly dystopian.
You are a lying, Jew-hating propagandist. The terrorists actually filmed themselves committing the atrocities and posted them online. Israel departed Gaza years ago and Hamas wasted the opportunity of having a prosperous nation, instead using their money to build terror tunnels and attack innocent people. Do you justify this? Do you justify the oppression of women in the Muslim world? You’re either evil or a sick, uninformed fool. Either way, eff you and your ilk.
And finally your accusation that Palestinian supporters are Jew haters, that accusation is unfortunately common — Criticising the actions of the Israeli government and its toxic society is not antisemitism. It’s possible and essential to stand up for Palestinian rights without hating Jewish people.
In fact, many Jews around the world also oppose the occupation and apartheid.
Justice is not antisemitic silence in the face of oppression is.
Weaponising antisemitism to deflect from war crimes does a disservice to real victims of antisemitism and undermines the fight against hate everywhere.
Here’s the truth: Israel withdrew its settlers, but kept control of Gaza’s borders, airspace, sea, and population registry. That’s not freedom — it’s occupation with the door locked from the outside.
Since 2007, Gaza has been under a crushing blockade — food, fuel, medicine, even building materials are tightly restricted. Gaza’s economy and healthcare system have been deliberately dismantled. Nearly 2 million people, most of them refugees and children, are trapped.
And what about Gaza’s natural gas?
There’s a major gas field — Gaza Marine — off its coast. In theory, it could lift the population out of poverty. But for years, Israel blocked Palestinians from developing it. Now Israel is making a deal with BP, without Gaza’s consent, to extract the resource — essentially stealing Palestinian wealth.
Blaming Hamas alone is dishonest.
Even without Hamas, no place can “thrive” while under siege, bombed repeatedly, and denied control over its land, water, and energy.
This isn’t mismanagement. It’s deliberate strangulation.
MYTH: Israel left Gaza in 2005.
TRUTH:
🔒 Israel controls Gaza’s borders, sea, airspace
🚫 Blockade since 2007: no exports, no free movement
💣 Infrastructure bombed repeatedly
🛢️ Gaza’s natural gas blocked — now claimed by Israel & BP
📉 Gaza never had a chance to “thrive” — it’s a siege, not freedom.
Well said Ann. Thank you. I'd go one further and remind people that the Hamas Party was democratically elected in 2006 and mandated to run the health, medical, education, policing and economic sectors. They were actually extremely successful which annoyed the hell out of the Israelis who did everything (and l mean everything) they could to prevent Palestinians from thriving. After many years of frustration and blockades and peaceful protests (2018, 2019) Hamas developed a military wing to defend themselves. I cheered on Oct 7/23 because finally the world was forced to wake the F-Up.
Don't even get me started on the Palestinian Authority and what's been happening in the West Bank or East Jerusalem.
Unfortunately Shelley there is still a mountain to climb and I fear we are looking at WW3. The west has been systematically displacing people out of the middle east for over 25 years, to access their natural resources. Israel is an American military base, nuclear facility and testing laboratory, it is no more a country than I am. Totally dependent on criminality, foreign aid and propaganda to appear legitimate. Many people who have some intelligence simply cannot see the lawlessness and have well entrenched beliefs that are simply erroneous. Like you, I simply cannot abide the lies, the false narrative, the supremacy, the whitewashing or the attempts to try oretend this as a religious war.
Let me address one of your misconceptions, I will unpack the others later today
Why Sexual Violence Against Women Still Goes Unpunished in the Western World.
In a society that calls itself free, fair, and equal — yet we must confront an undeniable truth: sexual violence against women continues to go largely unpunished in the Western world.
This is not a failure of law alone. It is a failure of culture, of conscience, and of courage.
Despite the rhetoric of equality, justice remains out of reach for the vast majority of women who suffer sexual violence. In country after country, only a tiny fraction of reported assaults result in conviction. And many survivors do not report at all — not because they weren't harmed, but because they know, instinctively, what the system will do to them.
They know they will be asked what they wore. What they drank. Why they didn’t scream. Why they didn’t report it sooner. Why they ever trusted him.
They know the legal system — the very one that promises protection — often treats them as suspects, not victims. And they know that too often, the powerful are protected, while the vulnerable are silenced.
Behind these statistics is a deeper rot — a culture that still tells boys that dominance is manly, and tells girls that silence is virtuous. A culture that dresses misogyny up as humour, excuses harassment as flirting, and blames women for the violence done to them.
Let’s not forget — it took until the 1990s in many Western countries for marital rape to even be recognized as a crime. That’s within our lifetimes.
And even today, survivors are expected to prove the impossible — that they did not consent — often without witnesses, often without support, and always under the scrutiny of a system that was never built for them.
Institutions protect themselves, not the abused. Universities, the military, the Church, the corporate boardroom — all have closed ranks to shield perpetrators and silence victims, because power protects power.
And make no mistake: race, class, and identity shape who is believed and who is not. Poor women, migrant women, women of colour, disabled women — they are even less likely to be heard, less likely to see justice.
This is not a crisis of isolated incidents — this is a systemic, cultural failure.
It is time to end the silence.
Because silence has never protected women. It has only protected their abusers.
JIM If you are calling me an Anti-Semite then that officially makes you a dyed-in-the-wool NAZI. The Nazi's BTW embraced the Christian Zionists and collaborated with wealthy Jews to colonize Palestine to engineer the Nekbah in 1948.
Wow, l obviously hit a nerve. That tends to happen when one confronts a Zionist Propagandist. I'll leave the rest to Ann Britton who has done a superb job here of detailing the facts.
PS Jim Livengood sounds like a trolling Mossad bot name to me. LOL
Never-Ending lies from the pale-skinned Khazarian colonists who fraudulently claim to be Semites while they exterminate darker-skinned, actual Semites. Utter horror! Even more horrifying is the silence and complicity of much of the world.
I guess the question is What were all those Palestinians doing over in Israel on 10/7? Dropping out of the sky. Motorcyclingdragging bloodied disheveled woman in and out of pic ups. And where did they get the hostages from? around like maniacs. Sightseeing? I don't know. I'm just asking asking.
The events of October 7th were tragic and horrific, but they do not justify the mass punishment of over 2 million people in Gaza—half of whom are children—who had nothing to do with the attack. Collective punishment is a war crime under international law.
Israel claims it was caught off guard by Hamas, despite having:
One of the most advanced surveillance systems in the world
Drone patrols, facial recognition, AI surveillance, and informants inside Gaza
Military bases minutes away from the breached border
Yet somehow, 2,000 fighters crossed the border, roamed freely for hours, kidnapped over 200 people, and returned to Gaza—all without being stopped. That stretches credibility.
This raises serious questions:
Was this an intelligence failure, or was it allowed to happen to justify a devastating war?
Why did the IDF take hours to respond?
How did they fail to detect the build-up for such a complex attack?
Even if Hamas committed war crimes, punishing civilians en masse is not justice—it’s revenge. No crime justifies flattening entire neighborhoods, cutting off food, water, and electricity, and killing thousands of innocent people.
Justice must target perpetrators—not entire populations.
The only reason we absolutely know of all the 10/7 atrocities committed by those barbaric fools .... Is because the videod in all their gloryfor all the world tosee all the horror committed that day after first sending off to their parents to receive praise. You can be anti Israel or anti anything you want. But denying 10/7 sounds deranged inhumane and ignorant.
When you deny these horrors. The perpetrators feel more entitled to commit more and then all the while making it harder for you to deny or defend.with looking like a lookout.
Talking about deranged, inhumane and ignorant? Have you seen any of the tic-tocs posted by IDF soliders? There was the CCTV video where the guards anally raped a male Palestinian prisoner to death with a sharp stick. I think the UN call it torture but, the Knesset had a meeting to confirm that it's legitimate because 2.5 million Palestinians are all Hamas terrorists and are human animals so deserve it.
The entire religious project called "Judaism" is based not just on smoke and mirrors and Edward Bernays puffery and perversion, but it is a slow brewing over centuries of the poison of persuasion and brainwashing and heaving guilt on Goyim, and of course, the hidden chambers of Torah and Talmud, well, no longer in the shadows, professes all sorts of misanthropy in this white supremacist relgion.
Until we have Seinfeld and Mel Brooks and Ackman and Adelman and Zuckerberg and Ellison and Fink and Schwarzman and Schultz running the show. Mustn't forget who runs Holly-Dirt and much of higher education, that's a for sure, including those Bill Maher and Jon Leibowitz freaks.
Just to remind those who believe there is such a thing as antisemitism. This fucking Billionaire Jew put the final nail in the coffin of the fucking Antisemitism Industry.
These fucking Zionist JEWS think they rule the fucking world. Gazafication of America? Jewification of America is more apropos.
Google co-founder Sergey Brin called the U.N. “transparently antisemitic” in an internal forum for employees. His comments came in response to a U.N. report that alleged technology firms profited from “the genocide carried out by Israel” in Gaza.
Yeah, they run the world, rule the narrative, have the AI and data centers from hell running the wars now and those to come.
They are winning in their Century of the Jew.
Even postmortem semen is more valuable than living Gazans!
The pattern is well-worn: assault and immerse the public’s brains off the top with mind-numbingly sensational and horribly graphic claims (claims, claims … always g-damned CLAIMS!) and the propagandist’s work is done.
It’s MK-ULTRA level mind-effing that, with any luck, is being overplayed to the point of wearing too thin for continued use.
Yes the permanent victim creed and the get out of jail free for all atrocities committed status of the chosen tribe has finally started to lose its grip on those who have shed the cogdis . The ADL is quite concerned that the younger folks have not been sheep dipped like their brainwashed predecessors. Just too many social media videos escaped Gaza for the deception masters to contain.
I’m so sorry that the October pogrom wasn’t as barbaric or ‘rapy’ for your tastes. Multiple post mortems and witnesses have verified the animalistic ferocity of this abhorrent attack. You’re a pack of odious Jew-hating cunts. Fuck you

🔒 Israel controls Gaza’s borders, sea, airspace
🚫 Blockade since 2007: no exports, no free movement
💣 Infrastructure bombed repeatedly
🛢️ Gaza’s natural gas blocked — now claimed by Israel & BP
📉 Gaza never had a chance to “thrive” — it’s a siege, not freedom.
Well said Ann. Thank you. I'd go one further and remind people that the Hamas Party was democratically elected in 2006 and mandated to run the health, medical, education, policing and economic sectors. They were actually extremely successful which annoyed the hell out of the Israelis who did everything (and l mean everything) they could to prevent Palestinians from thriving. After many years of frustration and blockades and peaceful protests (2018, 2019) Hamas developed a military wing to defend themselves. I cheered on Oct 7/23 because finally the world was forced to wake the F-Up.
Don't even get me started on the Palestinian Authority and what's been happening in the West Bank or East Jerusalem.
Unfortunately Shelley there is still a mountain to climb and I fear we are looking at WW3. The west has been systematically displacing people out of the middle east for over 25 years, to access their natural resources. Israel is an American military base, nuclear facility and testing laboratory, it is no more a country than I am. Totally dependent on criminality, foreign aid and propaganda to appear legitimate. Many people who have some intelligence simply cannot see the lawlessness and have well entrenched beliefs that are simply erroneous. Like you, I simply cannot abide the lies, the false narrative, the supremacy, the whitewashing or the attempts to try oretend this as a religious war.
Let me address one of your misconceptions, I will unpack the others later today
Why Sexual Violence Against Women Still Goes Unpunished in the Western World.
In a society that calls itself free, fair, and equal — yet we must confront an undeniable truth: sexual violence against women continues to go largely unpunished in the Western world.
This is not a failure of law alone. It is a failure of culture, of conscience, and of courage.
Despite the rhetoric of equality, justice remains out of reach for the vast majority of women who suffer sexual violence. In country after country, only a tiny fraction of reported assaults result in conviction. And many survivors do not report at all — not because they weren't harmed, but because they know, instinctively, what the system will do to them.
They know they will be asked what they wore. What they drank. Why they didn’t scream. Why they didn’t report it sooner. Why they ever trusted him.
They know the legal system — the very one that promises protection — often treats them as suspects, not victims. And they know that too often, the powerful are protected, while the vulnerable are silenced.
Behind these statistics is a deeper rot — a culture that still tells boys that dominance is manly, and tells girls that silence is virtuous. A culture that dresses misogyny up as humour, excuses harassment as flirting, and blames women for the violence done to them.
Let’s not forget — it took until the 1990s in many Western countries for marital rape to even be recognized as a crime. That’s within our lifetimes.
And even today, survivors are expected to prove the impossible — that they did not consent — often without witnesses, often without support, and always under the scrutiny of a system that was never built for them.
Institutions protect themselves, not the abused. Universities, the military, the Church, the corporate boardroom — all have closed ranks to shield perpetrators and silence victims, because power protects power.
And make no mistake: race, class, and identity shape who is believed and who is not. Poor women, migrant women, women of colour, disabled women — they are even less likely to be heard, less likely to see justice.
This is not a crisis of isolated incidents — this is a systemic, cultural failure.
It is time to end the silence.
Because silence has never protected women. It has only protected their abusers.
JIM If you are calling me an Anti-Semite then that officially makes you a dyed-in-the-wool NAZI. The Nazi's BTW embraced the Christian Zionists and collaborated with wealthy Jews to colonize Palestine to engineer the Nekbah in 1948.
Wow, l obviously hit a nerve. That tends to happen when one confronts a Zionist Propagandist. I'll leave the rest to Ann Britton who has done a superb job here of detailing the facts.
PS Jim Livengood sounds like a trolling Mossad bot name to me. LOL
Never-Ending lies from the pale-skinned Khazarian colonists who fraudulently claim to be Semites while they exterminate darker-skinned, actual Semites. Utter horror! Even more horrifying is the silence and complicity of much of the world.
I guess the question is What were all those Palestinians doing over in Israel on 10/7? Dropping out of the sky. Motorcyclingdragging bloodied disheveled woman in and out of pic ups. And where did they get the hostages from? around like maniacs. Sightseeing? I don't know. I'm just asking asking.
Good that you asked about 7/10. Now ask what all those Zionist Jews were doing in Palestine circa May 15 1948.
The events of October 7th were tragic and horrific, but they do not justify the mass punishment of over 2 million people in Gaza—half of whom are children—who had nothing to do with the attack. Collective punishment is a war crime under international law.
Israel claims it was caught off guard by Hamas, despite having:
One of the most advanced surveillance systems in the world
Drone patrols, facial recognition, AI surveillance, and informants inside Gaza
Military bases minutes away from the breached border
Yet somehow, 2,000 fighters crossed the border, roamed freely for hours, kidnapped over 200 people, and returned to Gaza—all without being stopped. That stretches credibility.
This raises serious questions:
Was this an intelligence failure, or was it allowed to happen to justify a devastating war?
Why did the IDF take hours to respond?
How did they fail to detect the build-up for such a complex attack?
Even if Hamas committed war crimes, punishing civilians en masse is not justice—it’s revenge. No crime justifies flattening entire neighborhoods, cutting off food, water, and electricity, and killing thousands of innocent people.
Justice must target perpetrators—not entire populations.
The only reason we absolutely know of all the 10/7 atrocities committed by those barbaric fools .... Is because the videod in all their gloryfor all the world tosee all the horror committed that day after first sending off to their parents to receive praise. You can be anti Israel or anti anything you want. But denying 10/7 sounds deranged inhumane and ignorant.
When you deny these horrors. The perpetrators feel more entitled to commit more and then all the while making it harder for you to deny or defend.with looking like a lookout.
Talking about deranged, inhumane and ignorant? Have you seen any of the tic-tocs posted by IDF soliders? There was the CCTV video where the guards anally raped a male Palestinian prisoner to death with a sharp stick. I think the UN call it torture but, the Knesset had a meeting to confirm that it's legitimate because 2.5 million Palestinians are all Hamas terrorists and are human animals so deserve it.
Looking like a kookoonut
Yes you are. Get help.
The entire religious project called "Judaism" is based not just on smoke and mirrors and Edward Bernays puffery and perversion, but it is a slow brewing over centuries of the poison of persuasion and brainwashing and heaving guilt on Goyim, and of course, the hidden chambers of Torah and Talmud, well, no longer in the shadows, professes all sorts of misanthropy in this white supremacist relgion.
Until we have Seinfeld and Mel Brooks and Ackman and Adelman and Zuckerberg and Ellison and Fink and Schwarzman and Schultz running the show. Mustn't forget who runs Holly-Dirt and much of higher education, that's a for sure, including those Bill Maher and Jon Leibowitz freaks.
Just to remind those who believe there is such a thing as antisemitism. This fucking Billionaire Jew put the final nail in the coffin of the fucking Antisemitism Industry.
These fucking Zionist JEWS think they rule the fucking world. Gazafication of America? Jewification of America is more apropos.
Google co-founder Sergey Brin called the U.N. “transparently antisemitic” in an internal forum for employees. His comments came in response to a U.N. report that alleged technology firms profited from “the genocide carried out by Israel” in Gaza.
Yeah, they run the world, rule the narrative, have the AI and data centers from hell running the wars now and those to come.
They are winning in their Century of the Jew.
Even postmortem semen is more valuable than living Gazans!

The pattern is well-worn: assault and immerse the public’s brains off the top with mind-numbingly sensational and horribly graphic claims (claims, claims … always g-damned CLAIMS!) and the propagandist’s work is done.
It’s MK-ULTRA level mind-effing that, with any luck, is being overplayed to the point of wearing too thin for continued use.
Yes the permanent victim creed and the get out of jail free for all atrocities committed status of the chosen tribe has finally started to lose its grip on those who have shed the cogdis . The ADL is quite concerned that the younger folks have not been sheep dipped like their brainwashed predecessors. Just too many social media videos escaped Gaza for the deception masters to contain.
Those Hamas “militants” were just offering those women hugs and it got misinterpreted.
I’m so sorry that the October pogrom wasn’t as barbaric or ‘rapy’ for your tastes. Multiple post mortems and witnesses have verified the animalistic ferocity of this abhorrent attack. You’re a pack of odious Jew-hating cunts. Fuck you
Where are the Oct 7 videos posted? I know real life violence isn’t really allowed on YouTube and stuff but it has to be online somewhere
