The Zionist Israel story is essentially the Nazi Germany story in Jewish dress. Israel has to be dismantled or destroyed if there is to be any chance for peace in the region or the world. The 1943-45 "solution" to the Nazi problem will most likely have to be applied to Israel, even at the risk of nuclear exchanges and oceans of blood shed. Oceans of blood are being shed anyway, already. Israel has demonstrated over and over again that it is quintessential evil incarnate, or something virtually indistinguishable from that. It has to be stopped.

What can be said about a population that suffered the European "Final Solution" and almost immediately (1948) project it on another people? Marx,

Freud, and Einstein are rolling in their graves over this supidity.

Exactly! IRONY: When Zionists who survived a genocide use it as an excuse to commit genocide.

Not to mention Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Yes, for sure. Israel is a deadly pathogen with respect to the Palestinian population with a ripple affect to the rest of the world. My analogy, my metaphore… I liken it to Ebola. A fourth exile may happen.

The head of the snake is the United States, followed by its spineless lackeys in Europe (Spain being the honourable exception), together with Japan and Australia and finally the traitorous hypocritical Muslim majority countries. Without them, Israel and its evil Zionist ideology would vanish tomorrow.

As Spain continously sends weapons to Israel.

Roshan Pedder's avatar

Spain does not send weapons to Israel. The Spanish parliament officially ratified a permanent, total arms embargo that bans all exports and imports of defense equipment, products, and military technology between the two countries. This is from Al Jazeera

Free Palestine TV Laith Marouf reports from ‘Israel’ Chemicals Ltd.’s (ICL) massive mining complex in Catalonia with Anna, member of Boicot ICL, to investigate the Zionist company’s ecological destruction of the region and displacement of the local population - all with full complicity by Spanish state authorities. ICL is one of the largest suppliers of white phosphorus for the US Imperial Army and Jewish Occupation Forces used in their genocidal crusades against Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, Syria, Yemen and the greater region.

Yes so let's by all means marry the Pentagon to the Israeli military in perpetuity. /s

Israel demands it, so it will be done. Israel has many areas of leverage over American politicians and the gullible public.

There are 15.7 million Jewish people globally (0.2% of the world's total population).

Ghislaine Maxwell's and Epstein worked for Mossad, using the rape of underage girls and boys to collect kompromat on powerful, morally compromised men.

Mossad uses financial bribes (large money payments), blackmail (child rape tapes), or threats (on the lives of family) to get it's way.

So few Jews yet it's "Israel First!" as it owns US, UK & European politicians. Trump & the others take orders from Netenyahu.

To make things worse, banks wouldn't lend Trump money when he was broke so he went to Putin. That is why he is best buds with him. Epstien had Trumps wife first. Epstein introduced him to her. But did he get her from Putin and the KGB? So many invidious threads!

Gaza is a working model of mass murder. Israel is Nazi. Trump is a sick, stupid monster. Both need to be destroyed but there is no mandate for justice in the world, no courage, no decency. Mankind condemns itself by its criminal indifference.

Billionaires and US politicians know that getting U.S. tax dollars for war and weapons is endless easy money. There must be a forever war to justify all this armaments expenditure.

Runaway military spending ensures non-stop war.

Healthcare, medications, housing, education, or infrastructure... anything that helps US citizens? "We can't afford it!"

The Imperial Boomerang effect means surveillance, repression, and violence developed by Israel's IDF and the US to control foreign populations will eventually "boomerang" back and be used against its own citizens (like ICE).

These wars of our own creation are bankrupting the nation morally and financially at home.

Feral Finster's avatar

Of course the "Board of Peace" was always a farce. The question put to Hamas and to Gaza ever always only was to be genocided now, or to disarm and be genocided a little later.

Identical to the choice in The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, as the Israelis know full well.

Brian Tanguay's avatar

Call it what it is, the Board of Plunder. It should come as no surprise at this point, but US arrogance is simply stunning. The world is upside down.

It’s all so hard to wrap our heads around because the weekly if not daily revelations of atrocities that were once unimaginable have forced us not only to imagine but witness them. I should qualify that to say some of us. A lot of people still elect to protect themselves from having to face it. I just listened to an interview on another Substack program in which the two participants repeatedly said, “putting Gaza aside,” in their assessment of the current U.S. political situation. At least they are conscious of it, unlike a lot of U.S.’an’s who compartmentalize and block it out completely. This enables the country, including the majority of alternative media, to continue labeling politicians who vote to send our tax dollars to fund a genocide and the citizens who support them as “moderates” and “centrists.” We will not be able to change our corrupt politics without taking back our corrupted language.

The horror it all is unfathomable. We are living in a parallel universe where nothing makes sense or things are the polar opposite of what we'd believed to be true, right and good. Can you hear me George Orwell?

Natalia's avatar

I think the tennis match of Trump say "we're in negotions with Iran" is to have everyone focus on Iran (a lost cause) and to give cover for Israel to extend their genocide in to not only the West Bank but to absolutely massacre Lebanon.

RECENT Hedges HEADLINE: "Why the Iran War Won’t End Soon"

Duh ... once again Hedges mails it in as he regales us with the obvious ...

The man who preached direct confrontation to fascism and tyranny for 20 years, actually waited 3 years before interviewing Whitney Webb. ... WHY? ... although WW's book "One Nation Under Blackmail" was published in OCT 2022, Hedges did not feel it was wise to interview her until 2025, and then again last week ... why did he wait so damn long?

And last week St Chris interviewed Abby Martin for the first time since the lockdowns. Why? ... he did appear with her on a panel discussion in 2022, but why did he feel she was not worthy of his time until now? Why did he not interview her in the more immediate aftermath of OCT 7th as Gaza was burning?

And he's still not had a word to say about SECTION 219 of the 2027 NDAA

Not the same guy since the lockdowns ...

BACKGROUND

In 2022 Hedges actually said "the constitution remains a sacred document" AFTER he refused to stand with us against the illegal and unconstitutional mandates and passports.

1) But first, here's proof that COVID “vaccines” actually killed people …

medicine.news/2023-12-1…

And recently:

medicine.news/2026-03-2…

2) Jimmy Dore interview, August 21, 2021 …

Not a word here from Hedges about the illegal and unconstitutional nature of the mandates, passports and the jab ... after preaching direct confrontation to tyranny for the past 20 years, watch him dance and listen to him equivocate before sheepishly blowing it off: “… that was just a decision that I made” ... yup NBD, right Chris?

Go to the 8:12 mark

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NusQH0pnX7Y&t=514s

3) Useful Idiots interview, September 21, 2021 …

“It’s a hard question I guess, do you force people to get the vaccine”

No Chris, it's not a hard question - not at all ...

Go to the 1:53 mark

4) DEC 2, 2021 FDA FOIA release ...

The explosive FDA FOIA release revealed that Phizer's Vx trial data documented 1,223 deaths and 25,000 medically verified injuries to trial participants in the first 90 days of their trial period.

medicine.news/2021-12-1…

5) Krystal, Kyle & Friends interview ...

This proved the Vx was not "safe and effective", but only 30 days later on the K&K podcast, he brazenly took sides when he knew better …

EP 54, Hedges said: "I don't think we can stop the pandemic and mutations until everyone gets vaccinated” without saying a word about the revelations of the FDA FOIA release – not a word!

Krystal, Kyle & Friends, EP 54

So stop praising this guy, he doesn't give a hoot about us ...

You write - “I am doing what the pro-Palestinian supporters did when they organized protests on colleger campuses across the U.S. in 2024”.

Their actions were courageous, and laudable. Your ‘protest’ of Hedges is obsessive trolling carried out by a disturbed, sad individual. Lickspittle on.

Douglas Carlson's avatar

Can you read?

When did I ever question the actions of the pro-Palestiian protesters?

NEVER ... my point is that by calling out Hedges for his betrayal of "his" U.S. working class here on his Substack, I am, doing what the pro-Pal protesteros did on college campuses ... CAN YOU READ?

Tom High's avatar

Can you spell? Can you edit? Can you embarrassingly use all caps for emphasis like a petulant child? Comedy chum.

Douglas Carlson's avatar

I never questioned the motives, tactics and commitment of the pro-Palestinian protesters - and you know it!

Tom High's avatar

I never said you did - and you don’t know it! That’s because you have cognitive capabilities of a gnat.

Douglas Carlson's avatar

Your comment clearly implied that I was calling the integrity of the protestors into question.

He's a man, not god. And unlike the antichrist (trump), Chris cannot be everywhere all the time all at once. He must pick his battles as we all must. I think it's quite sad that despite his decades of standing up for the world, especially the shithole states of amerika and West Asia that you find fault with this man. If he's such a shit, why are you a paid sub? I don't agree with everything Chris says and writes but let's give credit where it's due instead of tearing him down. I remember him interviewing Jimmy Dore and I was so disgusted by the conspiracy theories Dore espoused that I stopped watching and that interview made me question Chris' judgment. But the fact remains that he gave Dore a platform.

1,200 deaths and 25,000 injuries as compared to the one million Americans who didn't get the jab and died. You're right, it's not a hard question...

susan cartwright's avatar

I heard it was 1.5 million Americans died without the jab. Two of them were friends if mine under 50. They died before the jab came out. And another friends daughter (age 21) with asthma, got COPD from covid. Went from running 5 miles a day and full time becoming a lawyer at Uni to barely able to walk across a room. She didn't get the jab either.

Douglas Carlson's avatar

Good point ....

My sister died earlier this year ... she was vaxxed and boosted to the gills, never missed a shot ... she began to deteriorate about a year ago, developed dimentia and that was it ... she and I liked Hedges, we would talk about him ... and oh yes, she is the one who suggested I listen to his JAN 1, 2022 interview on the KK&F podcast ... imagine my reaction when I heard Hedges suggest "... everyone must get vaccinated" without a word of caution about the DEC 2, 2021 FDA FOIA release just 30 days earlier, as Phizer's own records revealed 1,223 people died in the first 90 days of its trial period ... I am not blaming Hedges reckless endorsement for my sister's death, but it would have been nice to at least hear him mention the DEC 2 release. ... healthcare reporter Celia Farber called it "THE most shocking document release of the past 100 years." But Hedges had no problem with it.

Not a word from St. Chris.

You seem to imply that she died bc of all the jabs she'd had, including for covid. Even if her death were from being over-vaxxed, that does not automatically prove that covid etc jabs are bad. You have to consider how many people die or suffer otherwise from vaccines as compared to how many people get all the jabs and are not sick or dead.

It's also true that just getting the jabs means you won't get the disease, but chances are that if you do get it the effects will be less severe, as in covid and flu. And being vaxxed means you're also protecting others around you whether in your home or anywhere else. It's the idea of the whole greater good thing.

People are going to die or have bad reactions from vaccines.--I certainly don't mean to minimize this fact. But just as there are people who die from a bee sting or eating foods that are perfectly fine for most others to eat, as in with an allergic reaction to, say, honey or wheat, those deaths don't prove that bee stings, honey and wheat are toxic to everyone else.

I personally never subscribed to the idea of involuntarily vaxxing everyone. I thought that forcing people who didn't want it was way too beyond acceptable in a democratic society, regardless of my ideas of the "greater good". (I also entertained the idea that all of us who got the jab were incubating a zombie virus.) However, I also thought that if people couldn't prove they'd gotten the covid jab that they should not be allowed in enclosed public spaces until the biggest danger of spread passed. We have to remember the panic about covid in the first year: didn't know where it came from, how it spread or what to do about it. Mistakes were undoubtedly made.

The 1st covid injections were bad before they perfected them? I was in Australia 🦘 ATT, thank god.

Douglas Carlson's avatar

The COVID shots were never perfected, Susan ... They also contained graphene oxide, it was actually in the manufacturer's patents.

The problem is that his cultists relate to him as a God, as they are incapable of critically digesting the nasty, head-sratching things he has said and done ... I used to love the guy, read all but one of his 12 books, followed him very closely - so closely that it was impossible to not notice a dramatic change in him since the lockdowns ... but I must give you credit for at least reading my comment ... most people in Hedges' flock can't handle the emerging truth about how he changed since the lockdowns ... they would much rather blast me than express any doubt in St Chris ... they are true cultists, as they defend him as if their life depended upon it ... in a sense, they are "religious fanatics".

Watching the fall from grace of people I'd thought were above above reproach has gutted me quite a number of times in my 68 years and especially in the last 10 Chris Hedges is not one of those fallers for me and I've actually said to myself that if Chris and several others in my special people basket were to fall.... the last tiny piece of my soul would be crushed.

Chris is not one of those gut-wrenching losses for me but he is for you apparently. I can't say you are wrong in your assessment, bc it is your assessment, but I can say I feel your pain, disgust and disillusion over having to give up someone in your special people basket. It never seems to get easier

Douglas Carlson's avatar

I really apprecioate the civilized tone of your reply ...

Did you know, Hedges waited 3 years after Whitney Webb's book was published before he felt it "safe enough" to have her on for interview ... Hedges should also explain why his recent interview with Abby Martin was his first with her since 2019 ...
