The Israeli government and Islamophobia


Israeli zionism is apartheid in nature when it comes to Palestinians but it’s far worse than that; rather it has a global dimension equating its fight with Palestinians with the Islamophobia of that most racist bastion Europe.  Preying on Europe’s xenophobia the Israeli government conjured up images of veiled, niqabi women who might possibly threaten the existence of Europe because they are like the Palestinians Israel is murdering in the occupied territories and the Gaza Strip.  This is the racist, genocidal nature of zionism…..comparing a religion to a force…..terrorism……territorial expansionism….that must be fought wherever its adherents are found expanding the lust for blood Israelis have for Palestinians within their grasp to Muslims in Europe and by extension other parts of the worldmona_2987791b

Israeli diplomats in Dublin have drawn criticism after staff used their official Twitter feed to publish a series of doctored images which included a hijab-clad Mona Lisa cradling an enormous rocket.

The pictures – which appeared to have been posted today but were later removed – featured images relating to different European countries and bearing the slogan: “Israel is the last frontier of the free world”.

One of the images showed Michelangelo’s statue of David wearing an Arab headscarf and with an explosive belt wrapped round its torso. Accompanying the slogan were the words “Israel now Italy next”.

Another, addressed to Ireland, showed Dublin’s famous Molly Malone statue covered by a full-length black niqab, while a fourth featured what appears to be an armed militant perched on a seaside rock and bearing the words: “Israel now Denmark next”.

 

Keep in  mind Israelis think being a Palestinian anywhere in the vicinity of Israel is an existential threat worthy of genocide and so it’s only natural to conclude as they  no doubt have that the same thing is acceptable for Muslims.  My question for you, reader, is after Palestinians, and Muslims, then who’s next?

The evil of Zionism


conflateNow that Gaza is being totally decimated one can see the evil of Zionism.  There is no equivalence between Hamas rockets and Israeli destruction of the Gaza strip.  We’ve seen the two are not even similar; but what has happened is Israel has used the illusion of the destructive nature of Hamas’ rockets to wage war on Palestinians, openly declaring it to all the world.  What they don’t say is “war” in Zionism’s world view  means , genocide is completely acceptable and a moral imperative.

Such talk of extermination, elimination was preceded by the complete and utter demonization of Palestinians by Israeli politicians and her supporters.  bloodiedAyelet Shaked a member of the Israeli parliament  in public remarks refers to Palestinians as “snakes” whose mothers should be killed their homes demolished and destroyed and Palestinian blood on the hands of Jews . It’s clear such a directive is being dutifully carried out by the IDF.

Israeli supporters have carried the baton of Zionist racism and Palestinian genocide to the pages of western media. The Wall Street Journal unabashedly published an editorial which conflates Palestinian civilians with Hamas thereby making it possible to kill them all. An Israeli “academic” called for the wholesale rape of Palestinian women as a way of deterring suicide  and presumably rocket attacks by Hamas against Israel, this despite the fact rape is a war crime. The Times of Israel published an op-ed piece that suggest the ‘goal of sustaining quiet is through genocide’……further expounding on the theme that mass murder is acceptable on the world stage.  The fact that such a hideous and reprehensible idea finds its way into the public discourse shows how much has been done to demonize Palestinian Arab Muslims to make their murder palatable. Were the object of such vilification Jews there would be world wide denouncement and a declaration of war, yet more and more the idea that Palestinians can be ravaged and murdered against all conventions of international civility except where zionism is concerned is finding traction among all segments of society here and abroad.  Frankly it’s ok for Israel to descend into this abyss; they can’t help it…it’s embedded in their ideology of race, superiority and power but to see it supported by the world’s exceptional democracy  is a travesty.
