Gilad Atzmon: The Zionized North Is on a Suicide Mission

  Gilad Atzmon: The Zionized North Is on a Suicide Mission The brilliant philosopher-musician has been keeping a low profile lately. Here's his latest. KEVIN BARRETT I hosted Gilad Atzmon events in Madison, Wisconsin several times. The pushback from the local Zionist kamikazes kept getting worse. The  last one, in May 2018 , saw the Wil Mar Community Center cancel our room reservation at the last minute. Gilad wound up giving a his talk in the park, then playing saxophone in a nearby restaurant. Understandably, Gilad eventually got sick of the endless harassment and lowered his profile a couple of notches. He hasn’t been writing essays or doing interviews on controversial subjects for the past several years. But he’s still posting his thoughts  on Facebook . So when Cat and Colleen McGuire urged me to turn Gilad’s recent FB post(s) into a guest post at my Substack, I said “sure—if you can get his permission.” And by golly, they did. -KB The Zionized North Is on a Suicide Mission By

The Second Round of Retaliation Between Israel and Iran Has Just Begun

  The Second Round of Retaliation Between Israel and Iran Has Just Begun Joe Biden is caught in a trap caused by his own weakness PHILIP GIRALDI   Given the lying and fact twisting that have routinely been part and parcel of accounts of what is occurring in the Middle East, the past several weeks have nevertheless been shocking in terms of how an abysmally low standard of truth can be reduced even farther. Looking at developments objectively, one comes up with a series of facts. First of all, Israel was not at war with either Syria or Iran during the first weeks in April. Iran had never attacked Israel prior to that point and Syria last fought Israel in 1973, over fifty years ago. Israel, however, has regularly been assassinating Iranian officials and scientists and it has been frequently been bombing Syria since 2017, increasing the pace to weekly and sometimes even daily attacks over the past six months paralleling the Gaza fighting. A particularly devastating attack took place on Ma

Magical Negroes, Eclipses, and the Collapse of Zionism

  Magical Negroes, Eclipses, and the Collapse of Zionism Trying to keep it real DONALD JEFFRIES Last week, we had a total eclipse of the sun. For some reason, human beings always get excited about an event they’ve probably experienced at least a handful of times in their life. But then again, people at least in my neck of the woods, still become spellbound when the snow starts to fall. Maybe it’s a form of childish innocence. Here in the D.C. swamp suburbs, nothing much happened on the day of the eclipse. Well, actually nothing at all happened. It didn’t really even get overcast. My extremely sensitive and high strung golden retriever Riley didn’t seem to sense anything out of the ordinary. We took one of our countless walks outside during the eclipse, and she wasn’t distracted from sniffing various spots of ground, rolling playfully in the grass, or acting as if every person walking, most of them with their own dog in tow, was holding a big check from Publisher’s Clearing House. I nev

Israel Tries to Change the Subject from Genocide to Iran

  Israel Tries to Change the Subject from Genocide to Iran The Netanyahu Government Looks for a Means of Drawing Attention Away from Its Abundant Failures ANTHONY JAMES HALL Just as the genocide of the Palestinians was going on long before the events of Oct. 7, so the Iranian attack on Israel of April 13-14 has much history behind it. Iran’s projectile barrage on Israel came in response to many provocations, but especially to the Israeli bombing of the Iranian Embassy in Damascus on April 1. The attack killed 13 people including three Iranian Generals. The Israeli attack of April 1st was calculated to set a trap that would lead to a wider regional war that Netanyahu has long been seeking. All signs point to the probability that the West’s most spoiled and coddled Chosenites, the people and government of Israel, are going to be allowed to get away with yet another travesty. The Netanyahu government is in the process of entrapping the Islamic Republic of Iran into a round of Russian roul
