Must Watch: Thank god It's Friday - Official trailer
Friday, August 2, 2013 at 8:47PM Gilad Atzmon A film by Jan Beddegenoodts
Atzmon writes on political matters, social issues, Jewish identity and culture. His papers are published on very many press outlets around the world. Here is just a short list of his recent publications: World News, Press Tv, Rebelion, The Daily Telegraph, Uprooted Palestinians, Veterans Today, Palestine Telegraph, Counterpunch, Dissident Voice, Aljazeera Magazine, Information Clearing House, Middle-East-Online, Palestine Chronicle, The People Voice, Redress, Shoa (The Palestinian Holocaust) , The Guardian, transcend and many more.
Gilad Atzmon's New Book: The 
Wandering Who? A Study Of Jewish Identity Politics
Jewish identity is tied up with some of the most difficult and contentious issues of today. The purpose in this book is to open many of these issues up for discussion. Since Israel defines itself openly as the ‘Jewish State’, we should ask what the notions of ’Judaism’, ‘Jewishness’, ‘Jewish culture’ and ‘Jewish ideology’ stand for. Gilad examines the tribal aspects embedded in Jewish secular discourse, both Zionist and anti Zionist; the ‘holocaust religion’; the meaning of ‘history’ and ‘time’ within the Jewish political discourse; the anti-Gentile ideologies entangled within different forms of secular Jewish political discourse and even within the Jewish left. He questions what it is that leads Diaspora Jews to identify themselves with Israel and affiliate with its politics. The devastating state of our world affairs raises an immediate demand for a conceptual shift in our intellectual and philosophical attitude towards politics, identity politics and history.
The book is available on Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk

Love/Hate relationships - Poetic Analysis
Friday, August 2, 2013 at 2:13PM Gilad Atzmon 
By Yann and Gilad Atzmon
My BBC HardTalk appearance has been drawing a lot of attention. I have been receiving a lot of support, but I also encounter a substantial surge of hate mail.
I would love to share this one with you, because it is poetic as much as it is angry and demands some analysis.
'i hate U' is a poem written presumably by a Zionist hardliner who decided to deliver his beauty by means of email.
i hate u
i hate u
i hate u

Left, Arabs and The ‘Israeli Democracy’
Friday, August 2, 2013 at 10:37AM Gilad Atzmon 
By Gilad Atzmon
In the ‘Only Democracy in the Middle East’ the Government decided to get rid of marginal opposition. The Knesset passed yesterday a bill that seeks to raise election threshold to 4%. The new law is set to block the Arab and Left parties in Israel from participation in the political game. This is clearly a non-democratic move, however, we have to remember that Israel defines itself as the ‘Jewish State’ – it is primarily committed to Jewish interests. Democracy, for that matter, is far from being a crucial or significant for most Israelis. From a Judeo-centric perspectives, democracy is basically a Hasbara plot, there to differentiate Israel from their neighbours.
In the light of the new bill, Israeli Left and Arab parties would have a simple choice - they either unite or face political eradication. The question is whether Israeli ‘Left’ and Arabs have enough in common. We will soon find out if the Israeli Left - a secularist, Judeo-centric, hedonist and righteous worldview have anything in common with the Arabs - a proletarian, mostly Muslim and patriarchal society.

Gilad Atzmon on HardTalk BBC Persia (very interesting)

The debate (in English) starts around 59 sec' in
By Gilad Atzmon
Last week I was invited by BBC Persia to guest on HardTalk. We all know what BBC Persia stands for so I expected to be thoroughly grilled. Now, I just love to be grilled but the problem is I just don't cook very well. Truth is, it ain’t all that easy to knock me down, so if BBC had such a plan, it obviously failed.
After the recording I was pretty sure the BBC would shelve it and never air the debate, but I was wrong. Yesterday the BBC broadcasted the Persian version and today on, Youtube, it released the English subtitled version. I really do congratulate those British broadcasters for their courage and their commitment to journalism.
Of course, the Zionist cyber universe was outraged with the notoriously Islamophobic Harry’s Place predictably announcing “If BBC Persian keeps broadcasting stuff like this, the Iranian regime won’t even bother to jam them anymore.” Needless to say I’d love to play Cupid to any budding romance between the BBC and the Iranian regime.
Adam Holland, an avid San Francisco Sayan, believed he could pressure the British broadcasters from his home in California. After all, is not Zionism now a global movement dedicated to the notion of the ‘promised planet’?
Holland, using the hardcore Zionist BBCWatch wrote: “It is bad enough that the BBC promotes Atzmon in English language broadcasts, especially given that anti-racists in Britain are trying to oppose the spread of his hate speech. But it is even more reprehensible and irresponsible on the part of the BBC to go to the trouble of translating his racist opinions into Persian for promotion..” In short, those enthusiast Zionists really believe that it is down to Israel and its messengers to decide who is kosher and who fits to contribute to world culture and intellectual exchange.”
