Unwilling to distinguish
Nazis and Christians are different, so are Zionists and Jews.
When Osama Bin Laden went to the Saudi King in the late 70s seeking funding to put an end to the Western infidels. The king had just agreed with Kissinger to supply oil to the US and have a military base in Saudi Arabia.
The Yom Kippur War had not ended well for the Arabs and given this path to almost unlimited wealth, he did not wish to upset the apple cart.
He took all that energy which Osama had and diverted it towards Afghanistan. The Russians were fighting the Muslim brethren and Osama could save them by fighting those infidels. The CIA covertly financed Osama because an enemy of an enemy…
Al Qaeda was born.
Arguably Al Qaeda and Islam are distinct. But in the aftermath of 9/11, those distinctions were not seen. The government did not understand it, let alone the common people. Scores of Muslims who ended up in Guantanamo Bay would testify to this. Islamophobia became a thing, not very different from anti-semitism.
Al Qaeda was a terror organisation that happened to be Islamic.
The Zionist movement is a terror organisation that happens to be Jewish. Its roots predate the Second World War. In the 1930s the Zionists were negotiating with Hitler for Israel.
Osama Bin Laden and Al Qaeda wanted a separate nation where ostensibly puritanical Islam could be practised free of the influence of the infidels (The West). The Zionists wanted a puritanical state as well.
Chamberlain had negotiated with Hitler. Thus the Zionists knew that the British were not averse to negotiating with genocidal regimes. Once Hitler fell, they negotiated with the British and Israel was carved out of Palestine.
In the aftermath of the Second World War, they were awarded the country as a penance for English inaction during the 30s. They swung into action once the war arrived at their doorstep. They took a nation that they had colonised - Palestine - and handed it over to the Zionists who rebranded it to Israel.
The actions of Al Qaeda were not that of all Muslims, it was that of one terror outfit. But all Muslims came under the scanner.
What is happening in Gaza is Zionist action and not Jewish. The problem is that the West is unwilling to make this distinction; so much so that they do not even mention the word Zionist.
A day will come when the tide will turn and much like the innocent Muslims who ended up getting tortured in Guantanamo, many innocent Jews will end up subjected to a new wave of anti-semitism.
There was a time when this distinction used to be made. Hitler was Christian and almost every Nazi was Christian but that did not imply that every Christian was Nazi.
The 2024 election is between a demagogue and a man stuck in the Cold War. One is focused on destroying the inside of America and another on destroying everything outside of it.
After 100,000 people cast a dissenting vote during the Michigan primaries against Biden because of his enthusiastic support for the genocide in Gaza, Biden started to question Netanyahu.
During the last election, many of the states were won by a margin of 10s of thousands of votes. 100,000 absentees would be a veritable disaster.
Look at what Trump is doing, he said - Every jew who votes democratic, is someone who hates their religion.
This forces Biden and the rest of the Democrats to support the Zionist genocide since they have been unable to make the distinction between Jews and Zionists.
On the other hand, Trump is trying to go for the Jewish vote as well as the Arab-American vote - if not go for it, at least keep them away from Biden. This will be an election of attrition. It will come down to who is hated more and who is seen as more incapable.
If only the Democrats had made the distinction. If only they had not invoked the police state when groups of Jews were protesting and carrying banners saying “Not in my name”.
If only…
