Gilad Atzmon - Writings

By Gilad Atzmon

The Guardian is backing a "No" vote in the Scottish independence referendum.

“Nationalism is not the answer to social injustice,” the paper’s editorial suggested yesterday.

Not that I want to enter this debate. I am an immigrant in the UK and I do not feel entitled to take part in this discussion. However, this tense political situation deserves our close intellectual attention.

Is it really a coincidence that Britain is on the verge of tribal and nationalist fragmentation at the time the Middle East is going through the exact same process? For the time being I’ll leave this question open.

The Guardian insists that ‘nationalism’ is not the ‘answer to social injustice,’ but can it support an argument to backup such a pompous statement? What is it in the love to one’s soil and people that contradicts social justice? Is belonging to an extended national collective necessarily a bad thing?

If the Guardian had the courage to self-reflect it may as well realised that it is the anti British ideology that has been spewed by the paper, as well as the New Left, that led to the rise of Scottish nationalism. The reason is simple – the ordinary Scot may say ‘If Britain has nothing to offer as an extended nationalist collective, we the Scots have a lot to offer instead.’

The Guardian may as well want to ask itself, how did it end up in the same camp with the big businesses and global banks? The answer is simple. Globalisation and New Left’s anti patriotism are intermingled. The New Left is there to weaken the state and break the Working Class into ID groups and by doing so preparing the ground for the invasion of big money and Global forces. The Guardian of Judea had a major role in facilitating this unfortunate social change.

Cognitive Partitioning of America, Israel & Palestine

Gilad Atzmon rarely thinks inside the box. Many consider his ideas offensive, but Gilad would ask, "Are they wrong?" This is, of course, the right question.

Gilad thinks he has achieved some breakthroughs that he has not yet published and that he would like to share with you. According to him, they help to answer questions like why the Palestinian liberation movement and the Palestine solidarity movements have been held back and thus far unable to achieve their goals, but the implications are much wider.

Gilad's talk and discussion will be held on Tuesday, Sept. 23, 7:00-9:00 p.m. in a private residence in Berkeley. If you wish to attend, please respond to larudee@pacbell.net or 510-236-5338. We ask you not post to lists, but if you wish to share with interested individuals, please do so.

Michael Gove and the Holocaust

Thursday, September 11, 2014 at 1:52AM

By Gilad Atzmon

The Guardian of Zion reported yesterday that: “Tory chief whip attacks protesters' response to Gaza conflict and comparisons between Israel's actions and Nazi war crimes”

Michael Gove stated, “too many people are conflating legitimate criticism of Israel's general policies with straightforward anti-Semitism?" It would be enlightening to learn from Gove how he suggests that one formulate an appropriate kosher criticism of the Jewish State and its Jewish lobbies without being tagged as an anti-Semite. Is criticism of the fact that 80% of Tory MPs (Gove included) are friends of Israel a legitimate criticism of the Jewish state and its power? Is the fact that 80% of the British conservative MPS care about Tel Aviv, but not one of them has paid enough attention to Glasgow or Paisley a valid criticism? Or is any such critique classified as Jew hatred that I will be accused of spewing once again.

Ignoramus ex-Secretary of State for Education Gove said, “protesters who are boycotting Israeli goods over Gaza need to be reminded that the Nazi campaign against Jewish goods ended with a campaign against Jewish lives.” The facts suggest the opposite. It was the 1933 Jewish boycott of German goods that led to the most severe measures against German Jews and later European Jewry.

Jewish Terror Again

Jewish man who spoke at Gaza rally forced to flee Salford home after he was assaulted and house attacked twice

The family are understood to have left the home on Curzon Road, Salford, after it was attacked twice

Paul Simpson

An Orthodox Jewish man who spoke out against Israel’s bombing of Gaza has fled his home after it was vandalised twice and he was assaulted.

Downstairs windows at the property in Curzon Road, Higher Broughton, Salford, were smashed, eggs thrown at the property and graffiti daubed on the door and window sill.

The victim’s car was sprayed with red paint.

Police say they are treating the attacks as hate crimes.

The man is understood to have moved out of the terraced property after being targeted by a mob of up to 30 people.

The victim had expressed his views in the local community and also on King Street, in Manchester city centre, which has been the scene of protests by pro-Palestinian and pro-Israeli groups.

The man’s home now has a To Let sign up and the downstairs windows are still boarded up, with eggshells on the doorstep.

One neighbour told the M.E.N: “It was a Wednesday night, just before midnight. We heard this almighty commotion in the street. Shocking bawling and swearing.

“There was fighting going on and someone was trying to keep the peace and keep people apart.

“We assume the man who lived in the house has been hounded out.

“But he is entitled to his opinion.”
