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

How Whites Took Over America Part 2 

The Right Wing clip above presents a cynical criticism of multi-culturalism and the genocidal crime committed in the name of 'Human Rights' and 'equality'.  You may also note the role of controlled opposition and the Zionised tone employed by the foreign invader. Terminological hegemony and 'correctness' are clearly  progressive disciplines and they are lethal.

The Meaning Of The Jewish State 

The following article appeared today on the Israeli/UK Hasbara outlet Harry's Place

Donning The Yellow Star

Tom Gross reports that the pianist, Evgeny Kissin, has chosen to adopt Israeli citizenship:

On Saturday evening at the Mishkenot Sha’ananim arts center in Jerusalem, he will receive his Israeli passport from another prominent Soviet-born Jew, Natan Sharansky (who, of course, spent years in solitary confinement in the gulag for saying he wanted to live in freedom). Evgeny will give a recital next Monday at Binyanei Ha’Uma, Jerusalem’s largest indoor venue.

This is what he says:

I am a Jew, Israel is a Jewish state – and since long ago I have felt that Israel, although I do not live there, is the only state in the world with which I can fully identify myself, whose case, problems, tragedies and very destiny I perceive to be mine.

“If I, as a human being and artist represent anything in the world, it is my Jewish people, and therefore Israel is the only state on our planet which I want to represent with my art and all my public activities, no matter where I live.

“When Israel’s enemies try to disrupt concerts of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra or the Jerusalem Quartet, I want them to come and make troubles at my concerts, too: because Israel’s case is my case, Israel’s enemies are my enemies, and I do not want to be spared of the troubles which Israeli musicians encounter when they represent the Jewish State beyond its borders."

Gilad Atzmon on Ken O'keefe's Middle East PTV pt2

Atzmon and O'keefe look into the terminology that diverts the attention from the crimes committed in Palestine. In this segment Atzmon argues that Zionism, Colonialism, and Apartheid are there to divert the attention from the unique characteristics of the Jewish national project. O'keefe and Atzmon also look into BDS, infiltration, George Soros, Liberal Zionism, NGO, Civil Society and the transformation of nations into a bunch of beggars.

Gilad Atzmon on Press TV: Israeli lobby a ‘threat’ to Western politics

Israel and its powerful lobby in Washington D.C. are considered a risk to “our Western politics,” said a London-based political activist on Monday, in a reference to Tel Aviv’s opposition to a newly-reached nuclear deal between Iran and the P5+1 - the five permanent members of the UN Security council plus Germany.
People around the world start to realize that the price we are paying "for the Jewish lobby’s interfering with our Western politics is severe,” said Gilad Atzmon in a phone interview with Press TV.

After Iran and the six world powers reached an interim deal in Geneva on Nov. 24 over Tehran’s nuclear energy program, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fiercely opposed the agreement calling it “weak and desperate.”

Netanyahu even appealed to members of the US Congress as negotiations were underway to kill the Geneva deal, which is set to ease some of sanctions imposed on Tehran.
