Open Debate: Their Deadliest Enemy!

By Nahida the exiled Palestinian

It is self evident, that:
"From scrutiny comes understanding, and from that understanding comes support or opposition, and both are necessary"~~~ J.F. Kennedy

And yet, we read that some prefer secrecy and devout acquiescence:
"Any open debate of this issue could be damaging,' said a Jewish communal leader" Source

The above quote is taken from this article , which I strongly suggest to read. It was published in 2004 in The Forward (formerly Jewish Daily Forward) Magazine. It is an exposѐ of a mindset that dreads open discussions unless framed by its "expertise" within its own parameters. A mindset that cannot tolerate debate nor can it survive the light of truths. In order to fulfill its aims it has to block free exchange of information. A mindset that finds danger in every corner when working with transparency. It can only thrive in the dark where words are robbed of meanings, deeds are shrouded with secrecy and ideologies are hidden from scrutiny.

The contrast with the ominously pertinent speech by President J.F Kennedy, about Secret Societies, is striking.

J.F Kennedy explains that the network of Secret Societies “relies mainly on covert means, to expand its sphere of influence, on infiltration, instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on gorillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations. Its preparations are concealed, not published; its mistakes are buried, not headlined; its dissenters are silenced, not praised”

Whilst in his article Ori Nir's describes the "fear" of Jewish community leaders of the possibility that AIPAC might be forced to register as a "foreign agent" rather than a "lobby group", which "would require Aipac to provide significantly more detailed information about its aims and activities to the government" which would result in "robbing the group of a key weapon: the ability to operate behind the scenes."

A few more quotes from this revealing article:

"Such a change would severely weaken the organization's influence and fuel charges of dual loyalties against Jewish groups, communal observers said"

"For months, the federal probe was believed to center on allegations that Aipac officials might have illegally passed classified documents on to Israel, which they received from a Pentagon employee, Larry Franklin."

"Although Aipac staffers are known to be exceedingly careful in their dealings with official representatives of Israel, so as not to violate the law, there have been incidents in the past in which Israeli officials gave directions to Aipac to act in one way or another, said former Aipac employees speaking on condition of anonymity."

"Jewish activists say that even if the likelihood is low that a legal attempt to compel Aipac to register as a foreign agent will be successful, public focus on the issue could be damaging. "Any open debate of this issue could be damaging," said a Jewish communal leader. "Questions of loyalty will resurface, and this time such questions will have to do with the chief pro-Israel lobby in America."

Nahida's comment:

The above article is only but one example that shows clearly that the deadliest enemy of Zionists is and has always been: open debate.

But who would fear open debate, unless facts pose threat to them?

Who would want to work in secrecy, unless transparency causes them harm and damage?

Scrurutinizing for example an organization such as Anti Defamation League, (ADL) exposes that one of it's major roles (under the pretext of fighting anti-semitism) is to prevent open debate and block intellectual discussion about four main problems:

• The problem of the Ideology of Jewish Supremacism

• The problem of Global Jewish-Zionist Networking and Lobbying and their role

• The problem of idolizing the Holocaust (which is used as a tool to further Zionists aims)

• The problem of demanding independent investigation for truth of 9/11

It is justified to conclude that the doctrine of ADL consists of making accusations, framed as follows:

"Antisemite":
Anyone who does not believe in the chosen-ness of the Jewish people, anyone who dares to criticise racist ideologies that leads to crimes committed by Jewish Zionists "Israelis" or anyone who feels troubled with the extent of influence of the Jewish Zionist ... lobby.


"Holocaust denier":
Anyone who does not believe in the uniqueness of the suffering and the eternal persecution of the Jewish people or who questions the misuse of Holocaust to achieve some gains.


Conspiracy Theorist
Anyone who doubts the government narrative about 9/11 and suspects "Israel" or Mossad involvement.

Such mud-slinging combined with such fervent desire to conceal truths might be understandable coming from Zionists, given their totalitarian ambitions and criminal methods of operation, because it suits their aims. It is however inconceivable to discover that such doctrine of gate-keeping has been adopted by some of Palestine "supporters".

The question that begs an answer here is:

Why would some who claim to be "friends" of Palestine adopt such definitions?

Why would they adhere to, propagate and perpetuate dogmas that eviscerate words of their respective meanings, and then forge twisted concepts of reality?

Why would they follow the same medieval doctrine by attempting to prevent open discussion on vital issues such as the dubious and unethical ... role and evident influence of global Jewish Zionist Networks?

Why would they use the same unethical methods of smearing to gag intellectuals and BLOCK debate?

Why would they excommunicate, slander and chase out of the solidarity movement, activists who call for free discussions to understand, scrutinize and expose the role of Jewish communities and their Networks in supporting a criminal entity?

In other words, why would they volunteer to do the work for ADL, BOD, CST and AIPAC?

Trying to understand this phenomenon, I noticed that many Zionists and anti Zionists alike exhibit irrational yet deeply ingrained and extremely distorted concepts in relation with antisemitism".

It appears to me that many have firm conviction -that amounts to almost ideological belief, of the prevalent existence of:

• Global intrinsic unexplainable hatred of the Jews amongst gentiles;

• Permanent threat of annihilation of the Jews;

• Millennia-old perpetual unique Jewish suffering

Such beliefs have become major components that defines, bonds and shapes Jewish identity today.

In my view, these concepts (real or imagined) have morphed into creed. This perceived "intrinsic hatred against the Jews", "eternal threat of annihilation" and the "unparalleled suffering" have formed an emotional blockage, a psychological wall that prevents many Jews from conducting a rational conversation or debate when faced with constructive and legitimate criticism related to Jewish ideology, to Jewish-Zionist networking or the Jewish community's fervent and systematic support for "Israel".

Such inability to take criticism, inevitably causes reactionary defense mechanisms translated as aggression against anyone who genuinely desires to examine and understand the full picture, without prejudice, aiming to excavate the roots of problems and perhaps suggest comprehensive solutions.

Consequently, and under the pretext of respecting "Jewish sensitivities", debates about the taboo problems don't usually see the light, and if they do, they immediately and as a matter of urgency and non-negotiability, get aborted.

Many in the European West find themselves unable to examine such taboos because of many years of indoctrinations which makes them feel guilty even though they have never done anything to harm the Jews during the Nazi era or otherwise. Some avoid the discussion for fear of being labelled or smeared.

For a people like us from the Middle East, we do not carry the baggage of indoctrination of guilt nor do we have fear of being labelled. As for me, I simply trust both my sincerity and my love of all humanity. My approach to the topic is genuine, afresh with open-mindedness and pure intentions.

My conclusion is, if indeed we desire the eradication of antisemitism, such emotional blockage and irrational dogmas must to be addressed, in order to allow opening of hearts for the exchange of ideas and the flow of information that would facilitates open debate about what troubles both Jews and gentiles alike.

Jewish supporters need to understand that non-Jews also, have their own REAL fears and sensitivities;

We are extremely worried about the state of affairs we find our world we in today;

We are extremely worried about the REAL "Israeli" wars of aggression and destruction against other nations;

We are extremely worried about the REAL "Israeli" threats to other nations;

We are extremely worried about the role of the Jewish communities in supporting criminal "Israel" and its murderous army;

We are extremely worried about the level of influence and the Israelification exerted by some Jewish Zionist organizations and networks;

We are extremely worried about the heinous, abhorrent supremacist nihilistic ideology pervasive amongst some Orthodox Jewish groups and how this ideology crept inside the psyche of self-claimed “secular Jews” in the Zionist entity.

We are extremely worried about the military training, the Security involvement and the internet monitoring of some Jewish Zionist groups worldwide.


I hope that people who read my articles appreciate the sincerity and honesty in which I articulate my wake-up call, warning against an immanent danger that I see in the horizon if the ethical elements amidst Jews continue to ignore the troubling signs.

It would be extremely unfortunate if ethical Jews fail to understand that their real enemy is not their friends who speak the truth in their faces with frankness and openness, even when it’s hurtful.

It would be indeed regrettable that they fail to understand that their real enemy is the deceitful, those who would not hesitate to sacrifice them along with millions in order to achieve some delusional beliefs and fanatical goals.

It is of vital importance that our supporters and friends comprehend some basic facts:

FIRST:
Dismissing or ignoring the supremacist ideologies and anti-humanist beliefs thriving amongst the occupiers of Palestine does not bear well on the ethical integrity of those who maintain such dismissive attitude.

SECOND:
Denying, obscuring or covering up the fact about the existence and the influence of a
highly organized global Jewish-Zionist NETWORKING and actively preventing people from finding out about such destructive networks is extremely damning to those who engage in such denial or concealment.

THIRD:
Denying the glaring and painful reality that the majority of the Jewish communities worldwide are either active or passive supporters of the Zionist project and entity, while pretending to be the true representatives of the Jewish communities when all the evidence points otherwise, is an ugly act of deception by those who engage in disseminating such misleading misinformation.

FORTH:
Overtly or covertly supporting the permanent presence of a heinous occupier -on stolen land, who is in infringement of every International Law and every ethical code that humanity has ever developed is damning to those who hold such views.

FIFTH:

Exposing such dangerous ideologies, such powerful networks and such unpleasant reality of the role of Jewish communities in sustaining of a criminal entity, is NOT anti-Semitic.

Rather, it's the contrary; it is a wake up call, a sincere advice that's intended to alert Jewish friends who embrace humanistic values to the necessity of exposing and opposing such reality in order not to be lumped with the aggressors when the tide is finally changed.

In my view, participating (actively or passively) in the cover up and concealment of the above is far more dangerous to the Jewish people as a whole and would more likely exacerbate anti-Semitism.

I said before and I reiterate, I believe that Judaism has long been hijacked by cabbalastic clique who managed to mislead a majority of world Jewry by propagating racist ideology amongst them. They also managed to entice them into supporting an inhumane criminal entity for several decades.

I, along with all humanists, hope to see ethical humanists Jews (even though a minority) who claim to be the true representatives of “Judaism” and “Jewish values” is to reclaim their “Judaism” and “Jewish values” back.

I would like to see ethical humanists Jews knocking at the doors of synagogues, community centres and Jewish Zionist organizations, aiming to re-educate their entire communities with authentic Judaism and with these “Jewish values” they proclaim.

I would like to see ethical humanists Jews retrieving the leading role in these misguided organizations and institutions, aiming to harness and neutralize the destructive force that took hold of their communities.

I would like to see ethical humanists Jews steering and redirecting the path that Jewish Zionists have embarked upon.

That would change the course of history, wouldn’t it!

Finally, I reiterate;
True friends of Palestine would NOT defend the rights of thieves, murderers and serial killers to remain on STOLEN Land.

True friends of Palestine would NOT defend racist ideology, by smearing those who expose it.

True friends of Palestine would NOT object to Palestinian aspiration of FULL Liberation.

True friends of Palestine would NOT divert the attention from the Real Criminals only to focus on a vague phantomic concept that can be dropped at any moment after achieving its goals.

True humanists and True Friends of Palestine would most certainly not shy away from speaking the TRUTH even when it hurts, and even against themselves and their own people.

I finish with this quote:
