We Should All Get Ready For Real Antisemitism To Flare Up

if Trump and Israel restart the Iran war and that actual, real, 1928 level if not worse world-wide depression results.   I said "if" but I really think it's more when than if.    

By "antisemitism"  I don't mean the recent innovation of those who, following the IHRA scheme to make that mean normal criticism of Israel's war crimes and crimes against humanity and ever increasing apartheid and program of Lebensraum (what in modern English is called by the appalling euphemism"ethnic cleansing").  The English language Zionists have expanded on that to try to make principled, non-bigoted anti-Zionism mean "antisemitism."  That campaign fueled by billionaire and millionaire money and numerous media liars has only made the coming resurgence of really dangerous antisemitism far more guaranteed by making the ignorant and susceptible blame all Jews for the consequential actions of Israel by claiming that all Jews are rightly identified with the Israeli state and the majority of Israelis who support those crimes and the coming world-wide economic disaster that the attack on Iran will prove to be.   

If the real antisemites, the ones who want to kill all Jews or at least oppress them, could have come up with a more sure fire scheme for targeting all Jews everywhere in line with the claims of such previous campaigns as the forgery of the Protocols of The Elders of Zion, they could not have come up with anything more dangerous than what the Israel right or wrong crowd in allegiance to the supporters of the Israeli state have mounted.   

The role that the Israeli government has had in that through its expansionist, genocidal campaigns against Palestinians and the neighboring countries,  its self-filmed, self-posted and proud genocide against the residents of Gaza and the West Bank and the direct role they had in fomenting the Iran war that the American and Israeli government started in March and the attacks on civil liberties of the opponents of Israel in every country where the IHRA distortion-"definition" of "antisemitism" was adopted as law is like that lie being made truth.   The spectacle of David and Larry Ellison's media acquisition and the resultant and lavish destruction of CBS handed to the idiot and liar Bari Weiss to turn it into an Israeli-Repubican-fascist propaganda outlet - certainly what is about to happen to CNN will do nothing to make any of that anything but worse.   

Seeing nominally Jewish billionaires, millionaires and their hired media whores doing exactly what antisemitic propaganda claimed they were doing does everything to only validate what used to be only paranoia.   Once the paranoia is made real, it's not paranoia anymore.   Though it can generate a layer of even worse paranoia over that.   They will have validated the suspicion, you see. 

An interesting sideline to this is the implosion of the putrid Daily Wire,  the annoying, febrile, former professional-virgin Ben Shapiro's once successful, billionaire financed - allegedly now self-supporting - little media empire.   I won't go into too many details about how that could serve as a microcosm of what Weiss and Ellison are doing at CBS and, soon, at CNN but you can get a lot of it from this video.

How Did The Daily Wire’s Podcast King Wind Up a MAGA Outsider? 

If Shapiro's operation is in this shape this soon due to Israel's genocide and other crimes, it's not only his annoying voice that makes me think of it as a tone-deaf canary in a coal mine. 

I will point out that though the video doesn't go into it, the initial funders of that little project were rather bizarre Texas white evangelicals,  Farris and Dan Wilks whose father,  Voy started his own church which is a neo-judaizing sorta Christian church,  "The Assembly of Yahweh."  You can get some idea of where all that is coming from through this article in the Forward. 

Needless to say the Wilks are huge and obscenely wealthy "Christian" Zionists.   I distrust conservative "Christian evangelicalis" and especially those who want all Jews in place to either be obliterated or converted in their cos-play Book of Revelation live action fantasies.  Especially when they've got tons of carbon pollution and cyber-bucks.  

All of this is extremely dangerous for everyone.   And if Trump and Netanyahu bring on a world wide or even a regional depression that affects the United States - if we're not already into that - it will be extremely dangerous, especially for Jews, those who support the genocidal, apartheid state of Israel and those who oppose Zionism and the genocidal, apartheid state of Israel.   

In the mean time anyone who calls this out and anyone who opposes the crimes of the Israeli state and the majority of Israelis who support those crimes and the American crimes that are worse because America is funding the crimes of Israel and committing crimes of its own are going to be smeared as antisemites.   I have now been warning for years that the IHRA con job of redefining "antisemitism" to make it a shield for Israel was going to backfire just as I warned twenty years ago that Americans in the second and third generations removed from the WWII generation were going to tire of America propping up Israel and getting involved with the mess that it was bound to become as it became ever more militarized, aggressive and violent.   

Trump is sounding like he's going to go for round two in his already disastrous war along with Israel.   That war has already finished the job that he started with his insane and stupid tariff wars of destroying America's standing in the world - it's clear that China's leadership has played both Russia's and America's stupidity and decadence very well, despite the problems that China has.    Of course China's leadership doesn't have the problem of America's indigenous fascist class, the white supremacists who have made racism the basis of so much of America's foreign and military policy as well as weakening our society and government internally.   

Even if we are lucky enough to get another Democrat who does as well as Biden did at restoring America to its old standing, no one in the world is going to trust our corrupt, crooked political system or our putrid lying, Republican-fascist media to support a competent American president, ever again.   Trump II and the Republican-fascists and the American media have permanently ended that dubious boon to the world,  "The American Century."   And America's fascists aren't going to take that well, at all.   The role that Israel played in finishing that off is already baked into that dangerous backlash that is coming. 

It is to the shame of other mostly white ethnic groups who were, at first, targeted by America's indigenous fascists when they first emigrated to the United States that, once they became "white" had large numbers, especially those who achieved affluence but many who just became middle-class, as well, joined into the racism of the indigenous, mostly WASP indigenous fascism.   The spectacle of white-Catholics going so heavily for Trump is a shameful manifestation of that.   Jews have, so far, mostly avoided that, probably out of a mixture of residual morality as well as being smart enough to know that any rise in America's indigenous fascism was going to target them as well in ways that the Irish, Italians, etc. aren't likely to be.   That seems to be something that the right-wing among Jews and, especially, the ultra-Zionists are either too arrogant or stupid to understand.   The role that such have played in the resurgence of overt racism against People of Color -  ALWAYS THE FOREMOST TARGET OF AMERICA'S INDIGENOUS FASCIST CLASS - is noteworthy as, in fact, those who have absolutely refused to go along with that - many of them left-wing Jewish anti-Zionists who are that because they take morality and justice seriously.   There seems to be an unusually high correlation between Zionism and the willingness to support America's indigenous fascism.   That's not surprising to me,  Zionism is and was from the start a European style nationalist movement and nationalism of all kinds, INCLUDING "AMERICANISM" seem to inevitably turn fascist.  I won't go into the sordid history of the various nationalist manifestations and their cooperation with even foreign powers, from the original cooperation of the Vichy, Quisling,  Ustashe, etc with the Nazis,  Trump's and his fellow Republican-fascists achieving that old American Communist Party's wet dream of subservience to the Kremlin* and the Zionists' relationship with Israel, but I'm not aware of any nationalism of any kind anywhere that doesn't lead to violence and crime and,  eventually, a backlash as their schemes fall apart.  

All of us had better get ready because it's going to get a hell of a lot more dangerous and violent.   Nationalism is the curse of the world in all its forms.  The real-life nightmares conjured from 19th century European romantic linguistics and other such pseudo-science.  

* Considering the Russian empire that Putin wants to reestablish  was the origin of the Protocols and his reported attraction to bizarre fascist-mystical-white Russian BS,  that, alone, should give us all pause.
