Conspiracies, Jews, and the Jewish State

Table of Contents

Age-old anti-Semitic rhetoric has been refashioned to masquerade as a political critique of the state of Israel.

The Corona conspiracy is only the latest retelling of the same historic blood libel.

Since the beginning of time, false accusations of planting and spreading disease, plagues, and pandemics have targeted Jews.

These blood libels rained death and destruction upon European Jewish communities from Paris to Prague and from Rome to Riga.

The Iranian regime, Turkey, and the Palestinian Authority have used adaptations of Nazi propaganda to fuel the latest anti-Semitic crusade against Israel.

Soviet propaganda has also been retrofitted for the digital age.

Jew-hatred masquerading as a political critique has also crashed onto the shores of the united states in Europe.

Anti-Semites of all stripes continue to libel the Jewish state with equally slanderous false accusations of ethnic cleansing, genocide, apartheid, illegal occupation, and crimes against humanity.

…Same people who justify the massacres of Palestinian people… (Linda Sarsur)

…I’m talking about the wicked ones in the Jewish community that run America, run the government, run the world… (Louis Farrakhan)

…That shames Palestinians for resisting, for refusing to do nothing in the face of state violence and ethnic cleansing… (Marc Lamont Hill)

This is the disfigured face of Israelophobia. These lies, slanders, and libels target the Jews everywhere: in Europe, the United States, and in Israel.

…There are certain rabbis in Israel… And they said it very clearly to their government, that our water should be poisoned in order to have Palestinians killed… (Mahmoud Abbas)

The Corona conspiracy is the modern version of the ancient blood libel, but this time it’s the Jewish state that stands falsely accused of engineering the Corona pandemic, infecting Palestinians, and spreading the virus in an effort to control the world.

Combating the new anti-Semitism is not merely an option, it’s a moral imperative.

Governments must come together to fight this plague of anti-Semitism with the same moral and strategic clarity that the world combats the Coronavirus pandemic.

It takes global leadership, it takes political action, and diplomatic initiative, but most of all it requires moral clarity and courage.

Let’s stop the virus from spreading, let’s annihilate anti-Semitism!

Highlights from the @Jerusalem_Post Annual Conference in NYC:

Dr. @Dan_Diker, President of the JCFA: “October 7 wasn’t just an attack on Israel — it was a blow to the U.S. on Israeli soil. It demands moral clarity and a united front between Israel and the U.S. to defeat jihadist terror.”

@XAVIAERD says it like it is

Well, @XAVIAERD says it like it is: If you’re part of “#Queers for #Palestine,” he’ll pay for your flight to #Gaza. Go see for yourself how they treat LGBTQ+ people over there. Don’t miss this bold take on the Israel-Hamas war and the woke right.

The jihadis—from #Gaza to your campus—get the green light. Diker: “This war is for the West.” No fluff. No filters. Just raw insight from two insiders who actually know what’s going on.  Watch: youtu.be/4Aq_zcbb4Yo

4/5 The operation built on intelligence gathered during the 2019 #Baumel recovery

#Mossad agents operated under cover in #Syria for years, visiting a graveyard multiple times under fire to collect remains for DNA matching. The intelligence community’s evolution combines technology, big data analysis, and human intelligence capabilities.

Lt. Col. Avi Kalo, former head of IDF Prisoners & Missing Persons Division, calls it “an outstanding event that brings hope and new spirit to the people of Israel.” The operation utilized the power vacuum following #Assad‘s fall from #Damascus, allowing #Israeli intelligence to deploy ground capabilities in #Syria.

A molotov attack on a bus = a “barbecue party”?

That’s what #Palestinian kids are being taught under @UNRWA  — from grade school to graduation. This isn’t education. It’s indoctrination. Marcus Sheff of @IMPACT_SE  breaks it down with @smartinezamir
