This is an information war as well.
Media offices! State ordered military attacks on media offices. Every single journalist, the world over, has no excuse but to attack this brutality, barbarity and illegality. https://t.co/UkkA9iSLOV

Informative article on Bernadotte’s murder at the hands of the Lehi terrorist group
A large segment of the US population blindly worships Israel, having been lobotomized by the relentless propaganda being produced every minute. Their view of the Jewish State is completely at odds with reality, which would be apparent to them if they took just a few minutes to learn the history of Israel. Criticism of Israel has been sabotaged by the use of the race card: any less-than-glowing statement is dismissed as the product of anti-Semitism.
Get a load of this sedentary, state-sanctioned fanatical thug:
Caitlin Johnstone: 'There are only so many viral videos of unconscionable acts that can be dismissed with "Actually this is way more complicated than it looks." It is not more complicated than it looks. Clearly. It looks bad because it is bad' https://t.co/TMJcTBQ8qM

'Gaza tower block explodes as 31 people killed in escalating Israel crisis'.
A satirical headline in the Onion? No, it's in the Metro, the UK's highest-circulation print newspaper https://t.co/TrZXTMJC70

Terrifying scenes south of Tel Aviv of a Jewish mob trying to beat to death a Palestinian citizen of Israel, watched by hundreds of onlookers, filmed by Israeli TV, with no police presence at all. These thugs have been rampaging like this for much of the evening https://t.co/oHKmHdx4Vu

No other modern nation has been so purely a product of the modern incarnation of terrorism than Israel. Shortly after World War 2, Jewish religious fanatics exploited the goodwill of the world, squandering it by committing the Deir Yassin massacre of Palestinian families in order to terrorize thousands into abandoning their land in the 1948 Palestinian Exodus. The Jewish terrorists didn’t stop there: even after the massacre, the remaining Palestinians were willing to broker a deal with the Jewish people, in order to give them a homeland. Folke Bernadotte, the Swedish World War 2 hero who had previously negotiated the release of over 30,000 Jewish concentration camp prisoners, was sent to mediate. In response, the Lehi Jewish terrorist group murdered him! Thus began decades of terrorism and endless conflict, as Israel steadfastly refused to cooperate or peacefully engage the surrounding nations. They had Uncle Sam, picking up every tab, and hand-delivering every weapon. No need to get along with anyone under those circumstances. And now Israel oversees the remnants of Palestine, a glorified open-air prison, filled with millions of Arabs who live in abject terror of the next Israeli attack. Is it any surprise that they would occasionally return fire? Israel has attempted to remove them from their land for decades, but the Palestinians remain. Jewish settlers continue to push further into Palestinian territory, launching their own attacks, and then claiming the land. Contrary to news broadcasts, Israel’s government loves the occasional rocket fire from Gaza. It provides the excuse for a murderous pogrom, of which hundreds of Palestinians pay the price, including many children. Israel loves to claim that Hezbollah hides among civilians as they launch their attack. How convenient for Israel, to be able to claim that every innocent Palestinian life lost is somehow their own fault. This attack on Palestine could possibly be their last. The world is watching. Hi-def cellphone video is recording Israeli atrocities and then broadcast over social media. This is unsustainable. Something must give, and I believe that it will be Israel, a nation that will disappear just as swiftly and violently as it appeared. A horror, and a tale as old as the human race.
Our remarks begin at 1:08:50. I’d forgotten how difficult it is to listen to my own voice. Sheesh.
The way that many people are behaving now, in the face of the dramatic evaporation of COVID cases, hospitalizations, and deaths, is interesting. Many want it to continue indefinitely. They’ve anchored their identity to COVID panic in the same way that psychologically broken people latch onto various apocalyptic cults. This psychological phenomenon is what explains the behavior of so many otherwise rational people over the past year. The abrupt emergence of a new cult, a new religion, and along with it all the strange, destructive, herd-mind behavior that cult acolytes engage in. Now that their god is most certainly dead, revealed to be nothing more than an empty statue, some are stumbling back towards reality, while others cling to the fantasy.
COVID is leaving almost as fast as it arrived. Now we must seek to understand what forces allowed us to descend into such self-destructive madness for an entire year.
This doesn’t take into account the COVID fascism currently alive and well in places like Ontario, Israel, England, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and others. They are now dealing with an entirely different problem. It does truly seem that the United States will once again provide a safe haven for freedom, in a deeply unfree world.
