Israel
'Israel's settlement policy, quite apart from its terrible effect on Palestinians, is outrageous for what it represents: a careful, deliberate rejection of peace, and a declaration of the fixed intention to dispossess the Palestinians until they have nothing left. And something else has changed. Israel could claim, as a matter of self-interest if not of right, that it needed the pre-1967, illegally stolen territory as a homeland for the jews. It cannot say this about the settlements, which exist not from any real need for anything, but for three reasons:
- to give some Israelis a cheap deal on housing,
- to conform to the messianic expectations of jewish fundamentalists, and, not least,
- as a vengeful, relentless, sadistically gradual expression of hatred for the defeated Arab goyim enemy.
In short, by the mid-1970s, Israel’s crimes were no longer the normal atrocities of nation-building nor an excessive sort of self-defense. they represented a cold-blooded, calculated, indeed an eagerly embraced choice of war over peace, and an elaborate plan to seek out those who had fled the misery of previous confrontations, to make certain that their suffering would continue. But that Is what judeo-Marxists do.
