Officials routinely lie and obfuscate, of course, but Zionists indulge an extreme brand that turns even the most obvious realities on their heads. Jews, if anything, are more skeptical of Israel than non-Jewish Western leaders.

In the 60 months PRIOR to October 7, 2023, the Israeli Defense Force conducted scores of military operations in Gaza, killing 1,230 Palestinians, nearly all civilians, 40% of them children. That is, Israel inflicted an “October 7” size massacre on Palestinians before October 7—all to complete silence from Western media and leaders.
Instead, the universal pretense is that everything about Gaza began with Hamas’s attack on Israel last October, whose Israeli victims are endlessly commemorated. The equal number of Palestinians killed by Israelis in the months before are not seen as humans deserving of similar deploring.

Is there another explanation than crude racism?
The devaluation of everything Palestinian and grotesque official license for Israelis to break laws, commit violence and vandalism, and act in viciously bigoted fashion while officials and media reporters tar anyone who opposes them as “anti-Semitic” was repeated in microcosm in Amsterdam and Los Angeles, as in many other settings. Western media and leaders privilege Israelis as entitled not just to militarily attack neighboring Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria at will, but to engage in violently racist rampages anywhere in the world.
A mob of 200 weapons-brandishing soccer hooligans from Israel’s historically violent, racist Maccabi team rampaged through Amsterdam last week, tearing down and burning Palestinian flags, throwing rocks at houses and passersby, chanting obscene “death to Arabs” slogans, loudly celebrating the killings of Palestinian children, jeering and setting off fireworks during a moment of silence for Spanish flood victims, and smashing cab windows with chains and beating Arab-looking taxi drivers and other locals. Not surprisingly, the Israeli soccer thugs found themselves counterattacked by angry local mobs. “Amsterdam has the right to defend itself,” a Muslim commentator declared.
