The Cult of Zionism

Response to Mazzel Stof's comments to the article:
New CIA Chief Was Excited About Attacking Syria’s Assad

Your screen name "Mazzel Stof" is clearly a modification of "mazzeltof". Thus I conclude you are Jewish. Consequently, it is almost certain -- and your comments indicate as much -- that you are biased by the Zionist Kool-Aid.
There is no doubt that Syria is a majority Muslim country, and that Muslim values predominate. This, in much the same way that the US is a predominately Christian country where Christian values predominate. That's not in dispute. But just as the US governmental tradition maintains a separation of church and state -- a secularism at the government level -- Baathism does the same.
The dominant religious values of a nation inevitably "leak into" and influence the behaviors of government, composed as it is of humans who cannot but act in accord with those values when making decisions, including decisions of state, but that is quite different from the state being overtly theocratic in nature.
Your refusal to acknowledge these self-evident features of the Syrian state suggest that you are a Zionist seeking to demonize Syria as a Muslim enemy state.
A cultish tribal loyalty for Israel and Zionism have forced your thinking into the distortions of reality necessary to justify to yourself the ongoing crimes of Zionism. Consequently, the secular nature of the Syrian regime, a good thing, must be discredited in order to maintain the belligerent stance:
Syria=Muslim=evil=enemy.
Try this instead:
Israel=Zionist theocracy=geopolitical-crime-in-progress=enemy (of world peace).
Israel is a violent, criminal, anti-democratic, theocratic state ***POSING*** as a secular democracy.
The defects in your beliefs and ethics are almost incurable, as explained here:

I'm an American and a jew, but tribal loyalty cannot compel me to condone, much less support, Jewish/Zionist crimes.

re censorship at antiwar.com

Really, Thomas? Who is the drama queen here? You're embarrassing yourself with this name calling. My comment disappeared. What am I to think, you're on a coffee break? So I posted the link to my backup, my all-but-invisible, low-traffic,... make that no-traffic,... blog. The "rules" you cite give the Jews a free pass on their complicity in the Zionist project. It's ok to criticize Zionism or Israel, but not the Jews that make their crimes possible. That appears to be the rule, and it amounts to Antiwar.com caving to Jewish/Zionist intimidation. It may be discretion -- as in "discretion is the better part of valor" -- but absent the lethality of bullets-and-bombs-combat, it's cowardly. It was cowardly then, as it is cowardly now. That said, it ***IS*** Justin's website and he gets to decide on when "discretion" -- strategic restraint -- is called for. I've had this issue since before you were moderator. Someone Jewis...

Sunshine on the Suck-ups

In response to an article -- "a splendid little war could end Trump's presidency" --  by Jim Jatras https://www.chroniclesmagazine.org/a-splendid-little-war-could-end-trumps-presidency-/ Jatras is a perfect example of the comprehensive cluelessnesss of the political class. Here, on display is the reason US foreign policy has been a flat out disaster for the last thirty years. Generations in the echo chamber of foreign policy "expertise", where the rule is bobble-headed yes-man servility and craven obsequiousness to the interests of the 1%, has lead US foreign policy to a place where an enforced and self-reinforcing notion of "expertise" is in fact zombified incompetence. Trump is in the big chair. That Jatras cannot see him except through the lens of "a shallow, superficial, unqualified Twitter-addicted unstable personality who never should have been allowed into the Oval Office..." clearly indicates that a war for the definition of ...

Right to exist, right to self-defense.....not!

The following is a post I made to The Algemeiner, an online Jewish publication, in response to "Golda Meir was no J-Streeter", http://www.algemeiner.com/2015/09/08/golda-meir-was-no-j-streeter/#comment-4474211. Like many Jewish publications The Algemeiner has a limited tolerance for the truth when the truth is critical of Israel and its supporters, and so, not surprisingly, the comment was deleted by "moderation". I reprint it here for your consideration. ************************** Make no mistake, I’m an American and a Jew. For those of you thoroughly infected with the Judiasm-destroying poison of Zionism, here is the antidote to your Kool-aid dreams. Drink deeply and wake up to reality. We often hear the phrase “Israel’s right to exist” and along with it, “Israel’s right to self-defense.” Hear them endlessly, by propagandists who repeat them endlessly. But endless repetition does not make a thing true. The phantom “legiti...
