The Deadly Trap for Israel and Civilization

By CrisHam, 29 October, 2023

 

The Israeli counter offensive in the Gaza Strip in retaliation for the October 7 Hamas attack is rectified, especially, when considering that the vast majority of the inhabitants are supporters of the Terrorists and thus brought all the damage to themselves. Nevertheless, it was a fundamentally wrong decision., which not only costs sympathy in the Western public, but endangers Israel and Jews worldwide. This becomes clear with the increasingly unfair Media covering and NGO Propaganda. 

Additionally, the hard military operation doesn’t bring closer to a solution. As a phenome with psychological roots, terrorism cannot be ended by military means alone. This simple fact was repeatedly proven in military adventures like the disastrous „War on Terror“ in Afghanistan. 

There is a remarkably simple reason why there wasn’t learned from such obvious mistakes: For representatives of the establishment in politics and the media, there is hardly anything worse than being cast out of this exclusive circle. However, this danger always exists when someone moves outside the discourse that is currently considered permissible.

Conformity works through mutual reinforcement in doctrinal template thinking. Such templates include, for example, the narrative circulating in many NGOs that Israel was an apartheid state - contrary to the obvious fact that the barriers in question are necessary as protection against terrorism.

Within the political and media establishment, the conformity mechanisms lead to a dangerous ignorance of all insights that lie outside the usual narratives.

Fatally, this resistance to insight also applies to the basic rule proclaimed by Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King - that lasting peace requires an understanding of one's real and alleged enemies. Regarding to the Middle East Conflict, this means, that the actual reasons for terrorism are still undetected. 

A population group that produces terrorists is always characterized by a self-perception as victims of unfair treatment. When the size of the group and its means (courage, arguments and weapons) reach a critical point, the participants proclaim their demands openly. In case of refusal the moment for an open rebellion has come. As various radicalizing factors (e.g. religious fanaticism) have different effects on each individual, some of them, like on a ladder, reach higher emotional levels, until the uninhibited preparedness for violence. If, for example, the judiciary system prevents some of them from carrying out their activities, others immediately fill their places.

From Media and NGO publications it is well known in which aspects the Palestinians feel themselves treated unjust. After checking these claims and their historical roots, one comes to the conclusion, that the pro-Arab narratives published in the West, constitute something artificial, something constructed to serve a distinct aim. This artificial character of the claims becomes obvious by the easiness and clarity they can be refuted in their fundament – reference https://www.frieden-freiheit-fairness.com/en/book/chapter/staged-middle-east-conflict

The main constructors of such distorted narratives are some media and NGOs, other organizations and institutions. What all these have in common is their dependence on direct funding or advertising contracts. This is automatically accompanied by political influence. For example, the activities of George Soros (about 200 funded NGOs) can give a marginal image of how money power works.

In the hands of a money aristocracy, organizations with currently desired narratives can be coordinated to an enormous propaganda and brainwash power. This was impressively demonstrated during the 2001 Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance in Durban/ South Africa. Parallel to the conference a separate NGO forum took place where around 8000 representatives of 3000 NGOs gathered. Their final declaration topped by far the corresponding paper of the official conference with anti-West statements and emotional language.

But in contrast to the official event the NGO forum and its final declaration were additionally characterized by an anti-Semitic „spirit“, baseless accusations against Israel and the call to isolate the Jewish state worldwide. Remarkably, the keywords for the later (2005 founded) BDS movement boycott, divestment and sanctions were already anticipated. 

Because of its enormous medial covering the Durban NGO forum Declaration had the potential to initiate a sharp change of the international political ambience to the disadvantage of Israel. - But the whole spectacle turned out as a passing nightmare because three days after the Durban events, the 9/11 attacks in New York absorbed the whole media attention. - What lasts are the results of an experiment. These show how abruptly an anti-Semitic mood change can be switched on and off again.

These observations show an (at best) non solidary attitude of the moneyed elite towards Jews, authentical Zionism and Israel that is validated by many others. -

There remains an outstanding phenomenon to be explained psychologically - how the vast majority of the Jewish people could have remained stuck in the erroneous assumption for so long that the big money oligarchs were their sincere friends and protectors.

Conclusions:

The Arabs are not to be perceived as aggressive and radical people by nature, or by own mis programming, but as victims of perfidious large-scale misinformation and emotionalization. 

The roots of Arab angriness, radicalism and terrorism are vested in a mess of partly false narratives which are produced and millionfold published by supposedly charitable institutions, organizations and mainstream media. These narratives are designed to make Palestinians feel themselves as mistreated victims.

Since the 1948 war, Western including UN aid programs for Palestinian refugees which included the construction of over 50 refugee camps have taken the responsibility from those Arab countries that had unleashed this very war against Israel. Today, after a demographic growth of the originally 700.000 refugees to around 6 millions, this comes out to have been an unprecedented act of appeasement towards the Arab world.

 Like any form of appeasement, (because it signalizes weakness) the Western aid was never really appreciated by the Arab beneficiaries. To the contrary, with the permanently cultivated consciousness of maltreated victims, they were encouraged to repeat the disastrous military adventure of 1948 three more times in the following decades (1956, 1967 and 1973).

Because the roots of the Arab bitterness and terror rest in Western appeasement and artificially constructed narratives, a peaceful solution has mainly to concern Western media and NGOs. This requires a profound change towards actually independent working in media and politically active organizations, allowing employees to disagree with „politically correct“ views that are put in from above. To secure this reform step, a fund in favor of discriminated journalists needs to be established, financed by media corporations.

Restoring true freedom of the press is a central issue, but another one is overriding it - the unofficial power of big money. Their control of global financial flows has fostered polarizing forces, both at the level of radical NGOs and at the level of the MIC, the military-industrial complex. 

The avoidability and counter productiveness of Western military operations often only came to light after many years of research. This failed at large scale to advance the proclaimed ideals of freedom and democracy, or even counteracted them by establishing dictatorships or by damaging Western reputation generally, like in the Iraq war. 

All findings culminate in the conclusion that the moneyed elite has developed the polarizing, non solidary behavior of the medieval aristocracy even further to a war against their “own” nations of civilization including the Jews. 

In this perfidious war by indirect means, Russia already went into the trap by responding to NATO´s expansion and high armament of Ukraine with the unfruitful invasion. Israel is now in a comparable situation. Should it fall into the trap by expanding the counter-offensive, it will feel the consequences of decades of passively accepting the distortion of its history and legal position. In the ambience of dwindling support by the media, successful negotiations with the opponent will be impossible. Just as in Ukraine, the delayed war would easily lead to nuclear escalation.

In order to eliminate these dangers sustainably, one determined step promises help. - The representatives of the money dynasties with their striking lack of solidarity must be reintegrated into the nations of civilization – and given a perspective to a constructive and integrative role in the future. Corresponding impulses can come preferably from courageous Israelis who explain to the unofficially powerful that their concept leads to a historical dead end - further and further away from the existentially necessary, permanently stable order on earth. Reference https://www.frieden-freiheit-fairness.com/en/book/chapter/fiasco-power-pyramid
