The Gaza Strip and Jewish Ideology

Whether you love them or hate them, Jews are nothing if not consistent. The first detailed record of genocide (committed by Jews) is in the Old Testament. As recorded in Jewish Scripture, the Jew Joshua claimed that Jehovah instructed him to slaughter the innocent civilian men, women, children and even babes on the tit in Canaanite cities and towns. These acts of barbaric atrocity were not problematic for the Jews of history or today’s Israeli Jews it would seem. One Jewish hostage, Gilad Shalit, and the State of Israel declares war – is this an over reaction or just cultural consistency?

‘I will be your God if you will be my people’, never forget that the Jewish God is partial, and that Jews follow a matrilineal bloodline (racist) which they claim can be traced back to Abraham. Coincidentally, Muslims, the other Semite faction, claim the same lineage, a family feud? Perhaps, but Jehovah only favours Jews, other human beings share similar status to the Canaanites. God’s chosen are the Jews and no one else – the Jewish ideology rests on this fundamental principle.

The traditional ‘handbrake’ to Israeli aggression in the Middle East has been the USA, but the Washington Zionists, Perle, Wolfowitz etc have the Bush regime ‘re-focused’. America is now partial; the absence (to date) of a strong demand from the US to curtail the brutal military response in Gaza, which is effectively holding over one million Palestinians to ransom is an extremely regrettable and tragic situation for the Palestinians AND America!

It seems the USA has adopted basic Jewish mathematics, that is, one Jewish life equals millions of non-Jewish lives. Jehovah makes that issue very clear! However, the Jews seem to have forgotten that the rest of humanity doesn’t subscribe to barbaric, genocidal and extremely unfair ‘mathematics’! If anyone doubted that theology is the scourge of the modern age, then doubt no more. The whole secular world is fed up with the violent antics of the Middle East and America’s new international foreign policy – or the lack thereof!

China couldn’t be happier over America’s ‘costly’ involvement in the bigoted world of theological fundamentalism. China is acutely aware that the (world) majority view is opposed to religious fundamentalism; the world is sick and tired of the Jews, Muslims and Evangelical Zionist Christians. These three groups are responsible for all the major conflicts in the world today; the vast secular majorities have had enough.

China has been exploiting this situation for a considerable period; the rapid expansion of the Maoist movement in traditional religious communities is ample proof that secularism displaces myopic religious fanaticism.

The huge disparity in military strength in the Gaza conflict compromises the already compromised nation of Israel – no one likes a bully. Some analysts have taken the view that Israel’s extreme behaviour is actually an attempt to manipulate the United States into a more compliant relationship. Destabilising and refractory behaviour would demand the attention of the superpower if that were the design.

But perhaps international relations will alter radically and unpredictably as a result of Israel’s brutal actions.

Regardless of the real reasons of such an extreme response from Israel one thing has been demonstrated to the whole world, and that is the brutal racist, barbaric ideology that is at the heart of Judaism.
