Antisemitism as a Weapon

[19Bones79]

One thing I find challenging on 'X' is to link videos like we can with YouTube and create a thread where you don't have to go off site in order to engage in the content. 

In X it becomes incoherent in between replies of the followers of the person that posted. 

Best I can do is to link to a compiled version of the OP  that excludes comments from the followers. 

The OP starts with Theodor Herzl and how he theorized that antisemitism is very much needed to further their goals for a Jewish state. 

It also shows how that strategy was used much more recently, how and why. 

This is a thread I wish I could properly lay out in the manner of investigative threads but it seems like this is the most efficient manner under the circumstances. 

Weaponisation of Antisemitism


All opinions are welcome, of course.

Well, if you want to read a real eye-opener on this subject, take a look at a book called "Spy Fail" by James Bamford.  It's got all this in spades squared.

You're absolutely right that Israel needs antisemitism to further their goals.  Just like South Africa needed apartheid to further theirs.  Ever wonder why Israel and South Africa are so close? 

But man, you want to talk about a topic which will get people fired up in a hurry, well, this one is it!

There are so many people who are completely flummoxed by all the propaganda flying around they'll never be able to see what's really going on behind the curtain.  It's not even that hard really, but to understand it one first needs to leave their perceptions of who's the victim and who's the perpetrator at the door.

edit - BTW James Bamford is the author who exposed the NSA back in the '90's. You know, the famous $10k toilet seat and all that stuff. The feds wanted to put him in Leavenworth breaking rocks for that one. That book was entitled "The Puzzle Palace" in case you're not familiar with it.

I'll definitely check it out, thanks for the info!

I'm sure I've heard the title Puzzle Palace somewhere before maybe some podcast.

In a speech calling for new strategies to combat antisemitism, ADL Chief Jonathan Greenblatt Invokes Pager Attack as Inspiration:

“We need the kind of genius that manufactured Apollo Gold Pagers and infiltrated Hezbollah for over a decade to prepare for this battle. We need the kind of courage that executed Operation Deep Layer inside Syria and destroyed Iranian missile manufacturing capabilities to undertake this mission. This is the kind of ingenuity and inventiveness that have always been a hallmark of the State of Israel, that have always been a characteristic of the Jewish people. I know we can do it.” (Jan 7th 2025)

What did he mean by this?
