    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

    Gaza drowning …and under power and media blackout

    Photo

    Photos and updates from Gaza paint one of the most dire scenarios the Palestinians locked in the Strip have faced, Israeli bombing campaigns aside.

    For over a month Palestinians in Gaza have endured 18 or more hours/day power outages. Now, with unusually heavy rains, cold temperatures, Israeli-released torrents of water (suddenly opening of dams along the border with Gaza), and even snow, Gaza is under water, under siege, and people are suffering freezing conditions.

    According on one international in Gaza, a baby has frozen to death in one of Gaza’s refugee camps.

    Omar Ghraieb, from Gaza, writes:

    “44 days without electricity! New emergency schedule started yesterday, electricity hours r downsized to 3 instead of 6, per day! Leaving Palestinians in Gaza with a 21+ hours of power outage a day. Add to this the horrible weather, constant rain, floods, wind, thunder & lightening!”

    Israel ‘opens dams’ flooding Gaza Strip near Deir al Balah

    Dec 13, 2013

    “The Gaza Government’s Disaster Response Committee announced late Friday that Israeli authorities had opened up dams just east of the Gaza Strip, flooding numerous residential areas in nearby villages within the coastal territory.

    The Gaza Strip is currently under a state of emergency due to severe weather conditions caused by a historic storm front moving south across the Levant.

    The Sycophantic Palestinian Solidarity Movement

    By Gilad Atzmon

    In the Palestinian Solidarity Movement we really love celebrities – those famous, rather special people who write great books, play musical instruments  (drums included) or even just think great thoughts. We like those people to stand up for Palestine and denounce ‘Zionism’, ‘Israeli Colonialism’ and ‘Apartheid.’  We love them  - as long as they don’t say what they really think. 

    Here’s the problem. Celebrities are often famous and successful because they’re clever and independent. Unlike our  progressive, dysfunctional activists, who in most cases lives on income support and repeat our ‘party line’, the celebrity is a confident, career-oriented, self-sufficient subject and, because of their capacity to make autonomous decisions, he or she is assertive and thriving . In short, the activist and the celebrity are made of very different stuff – so a collision is inevitable.

    Time after time it happens to us in the Palestinian Solidarity Movement. We manage to pull in a great human being, we tell them what to say and they comply. For a while, they call to boycott Israel and, like parrots, they repeat our slogans. But then, against all odds, these damn, self-centred stars start to speak their minds.

    The Ultimate Repulsive Zionist Music Clip

    Text taken from youtube: 

    "A new video take on Miley's song has channeled her defiant spirit towards a worthy cause: defending Jewish rights to live and thrive in the land of Israel. Jews can't stop building, loving, praying, doing what we want in their land, in their homes."

    Gilad Atzmon & The Orient House Ensemble, Arena Theatre, Wolverhampton, 07/12/2013.

    Gilad Atzmon & The Orient House Ensemble, Arena Theatre, Wolverhampton, 07/12/2013.

    Atzmon's performances blend strong writing and awesome instrumental technique with a high degree of professionalism, all this leavened by a healthy dose of humour. 

    Gilad Atzmon & The Orient House Ensemble,  Arena Theatre, Wolverhampton, 07/12/2013.


    In January 2013 Gilad Atzmon released “Songs Of The Metropolis”, the latest album featuring his regular working band the Orient House Ensemble. Each track is dedicated to a different location, in the main the great cities of the world, but there are paeans to more modest settlements too. In many respects it’s Atzmon’s most mature album to date, stylistically diverse and less directly confrontational and overtly political than some of its predecessors. Instead it’s more of a celebration of the lifestyle of the globe trotting professional musician as Atzmon explains
    “every night I fall asleep in a different town and most towns have their own colour, their own sound, their own song”.

    I reviewed the album back in January 2013 and also reported on an excellent live show that took place at Black Mountain Jazz in Abergavenny, just one of a string of dates that formed part of an extensive tour that not only promoted the album but also celebrated Gilad’s fiftieth birthday and the twentieth anniversary of his arrival in the UK from his native Israel.  More recently in 2013 Atzmon has been busy with a host of other projects and collaborations including playing on and producing Blockheads bassist Norman Watt Roy’s début solo album “Faith And Grace”.

    Kevin Barrett: In which I apply for Jewish status

    How come Gilad's on the S.H.I.T. list and I'm not?!

    How come Gilad’s on the S.H.I.T. list and I’m not?!

    The Palestinians are second-class citizens in their own homeland.

    I’m starting to understand how they feel.

    If I were Jewish, I would dominate the media, largely control the US Congress, and completely own Hollywood. If I were Jewish, nobody could criticize me – or my tribal settler colony in Occupied Palestine – without being labeled anti-Semitic and forced to wear a “never work in this town again” yellow star.

    If I were Jewish, I could make sure that anybody who questions MY holocaust gets locked up the second they set foot in Europe, while I remain free to question all the other holocausts. I could extort my share of the billions of dollars generated by the “no business like Shoah business” – one of the most lucrative rackets on earth, so beautifully described in Norman Finkelstein’s The Holocaust Industry.

    If I were Jewish, I would be a member of a group that earns – on the average – nearly twice the annual income of non-Jewish Americans.

    But most importantly of all, if I were Jewish, I could join the hundreds of brave and brilliant people on Masada2000′s S.H.I.T. list of the “Self-Hating and Israel-Threatening.” The generous folks at Masada2000 have kindly compiled a list of incredibly cool people who have the vision to see through the toxic smog of Zionist BS that we breathe every day, and the guts to stand up and speak out.

    Roger Waters Tells The Truth Against All Odds

    Introduction by Gilad Atzmon: The Jewish hate-site algemeiner.com latest target is veteran rocker Roger Waters.  His crime? He has told the truth about Jewish power and has compared Israel with Nazi Germany. Specifically, in a recent interview Waters dared to refer to the mighty Jewish Lobby and its impact silencing opposition to the Jewish State.

    It goes without saying that the Israelis and their tribal operators are not happy with Waters exercising his freedom to think and to speak but I have a feeling that BDS movement, now totally dominated by liberal Zionists and funded by George Soros’ Open Society, is also slightly embarrassed by Waters’ frankness.

    In the last few years, BDS Movement has invested a lot of energy concealing the truth regarding the Jewish State and curtailing any criticism of it. So, I ask myself, will Ali Abunimah, Joseph Massad and  Omar Barghouti, once again bow to Jewish pressure and call for the disavowal of the Pink Floyd hero? Will Abunimah advise Waters that whenever he wants to say the J word, he should instead say ‘Zionist’. Let’s hope not.

    Yet, one question remains: How is it possible that a rocker and a jazz artist are exploring those truths that prominent Palestinian activists are not even brave enough to contemplate? I guess that as long as activism is in a state of utter paralysis, the search for beauty is the only true liberation.
