Israel is an ‘annihilatory state.’ It does not seek to live alongside its Arab and Persian neighbors as an equal. Rather, it aims to maintain hegemony across the Middle East. At bottom, Israeli atavists don’t want educated, erudite neighbors, equals with whom to make magic in the region; they want subjects they can sanction and slaughter into submission. ~ilana

There exists in Israel a condition that is as much a part of the nation’s collective ‘soul,’ as it is the ‘souls’ of individual Israelis. The mindset is Jewish supremacy; the shared endeavor emanating from it is regional, military supremacy. ~ilana

New essay is “IRAN: Everything You Need To Know But Were Too Afraid Of The Israel Lobby To Ask“. The fallacies examined are “Iran’s ‘Rogue’ Status,” “Iran & Terrorism” and “IRAN & WMD.” The it’s “Back To Beginnings: Palestine.” This is really about Palestine.

It is currently a main feature on The Unz Review, home to dissidents from day one.

Excerpt:  

IT’S ABOUT PALESTINE. Of all the known facts about Israel’s war of aggression against Iran, now nominally suspended by Trump, this is the most important. Incisively put by Craig Mokhiber, “Iran is the last, independent, frontline state that refuses to submit, to normalize the crimes against the Palestinian people.” Quite simply, “Iran was being punished for its support for the Palestinians.” If you are free of the prefrontal lobotomy that comes with subscriptions to the Murdoch or Adelson Media; you will grasp this.

Israel’s unprovoked, illegal war against Iran was not in anticipatory self-defense by any stretch, explains Mokhiber—prominent and principled scholar on the international law (always bringing it back to its natural-law elements). It was old-fashioned aggression, Normalized by Israel and its sponsors, wars of aggression are considered the “supreme crime” in international law (the natural law and libertarian law are agreed).

Israel’s trademark terrorism was aimed at sundering Iranian sovereignty. Before the Iranian Revolution, locus of control over Iranian affairs resided in Washington, D.C., a synonym, we can now all agree, for Tel Aviv. The 1979 Revolution took decision-making away from Tel-Aviv and returned it to Teheran. What the 1979 Iranian Revolution militated against; Israel seeks to reinstate.

For its part, the United States of America, Israel’s lickspittle co-belligerent, is now viewed, certainly in West Asia, as a mulish military power that doesn’t know Shiite from Shinola.

Trump, you’ll recall, stumped our county—the president has forgotten at whose pleasure he serves—promising peace. He delivered war. Commentators Chas Freeman and Scott Ritter, both in-the-know, had divulged early on that the president had been engaged in “diplomacy-as-deception” with Iran. Having connived with Israel, Trump knew in advance of Israel’s impending “surprise” attack. He had engaged in fake negotiations with the Islamic Republic. With the help of the CIA, Mossad and MI5—the Israeli terrorists then smuggled the needed materiel into Iran. A con-man, concluded Dr. Foad Izadi, an Iranian academic.

Not that Israel needs a reason to war—but more so than a war of aggression for regime change, Israel’s June 13 sneak attack on Iran was meant to eliminate Iran as we know it.

Professor John Mearsheimer, one of America’s most distinguished scholars of international relations, offers a description of Israeli aims in terms that contradict the defunct, deceptively Panglossian ideas of a “two-state solution” and a “peace process.” Over and above regime change, Israel, in Mearsheimer’s always-careful estimation, has a “deep-seated interest” in breaking apart—in fracturing—the surrounding nations. … ©2025 ilana

Excerpt:

When America’s regime historians reflect on history’s tragedies and travesties, they always praise Pax Americana. That is the idea that American hegemony brought peace to the world.

Conveniently, they leave out the horrors of it.

Naturally, regime historians, the ones we are here (at the Mises Institute’s Revisionist History of War Conference, in Auburn, Alabama) to counter, speak a lot about Hitler, but hardly ever mention Hiroshima.

Likewise has Israel shaped its past, mixing some history with myth, to render a myth-history.  The propaganda sustaining Israel’s counterfeit history is called Hasbara, explanation in Hebrew.

Hasbara constructs serve to coat Israel’s real crimes against humanity with ideological respectability, to give these some imagined purity of purpose. Think of Hasbara as the steady supply of bogus, artificial constructs to rape reality.

Undeniably, American foreign policy has a certain narrative talent. The injustices of imperial power, notwithstanding, people are persuaded by the strut of it. Less obvious is the appeal of Israeli Hasbara and the Jewish supremacy that goes with it—and has seduced many Christians into ignoring Christ’s core teachings.

Christ commands care, not for the oppressor and the predator, but for the poor and the oppressed.

Hasbara and official myth-history aside, because of Gaza you don’t have to know much history at all to arrive at the truth about Israel. Reality is truth. The reality of genocide gives rise to irrefutable truths. Because of Gazans, the living and the martyred, the truth about Israel is now ahistoric.

Shortly after October 7, with the commencement, in Gaza, of Israel’s “Operation Swords of Iron,” certain self-evident truths became crystal clear.

By late October, Israel’s actions within and without Gaza had shown the world the absolute depravity of Israel, state and civil society. One such emerged reality is that, Palestinians, not Israeli Jews, as Hasbara teaches, are the most imperiled people in the world; Israelis the most perilous.

Another is that Israel, with overwhelming support from the Jewish-Israeli public, has gleefully engaged in methodical, indiscriminate, industrial-scale murder and ethnic cleansing ongoing.

The Israel Defense Forces, IDF, were allowed to obliterate all the fundamentals of physical, national and economic life in Gaza, turning it into an uninhabitable “post-apocalyptic wasteland.” The Strip has been reduced to its sub-soil particulate elements, only badly soiled.

Gaza is now a mass grave along a small stretch of the Mediterranean Sea, where living ghosts wander.

Gaza’s soil is soaked through with a mix of millions of tons of building debris, the decaying bodies of tens-of-thousands of human beings, their pets, livestock; fauna, flora all gone—an inferno of garbage, open sewage, and the byproducts and contaminants of munitions, like unexploded ordnance.

Said a scholar of the architecture of Occupation: Israel has “stolen” from Gaza’s Palestinians “the very ability to produce food.” Or, receive it. Or use means of exchange to get it. Banking was dismantled.

Believe it or not, but under years of a medieval blockade, Gaza’s farmers had, before October 7, fed a third of their people.

Indeed, Israel has systemized the mass murder and displacement of innocent Palestinian civilians, targeting them and their habitat for Total Warfare.

Since war against civilians is a war on civilization; Israel, by extension, is an enemy of civilization.

Our ally Israel is a country in which genocide, snuff films, extra-judicial assassinations, rape, robbery, torture and starvation of Palestinians are de facto legal. Israel is thus a criminal entity, and a threat to the comity of nations.

The indictment against Israel ought to be hermetically sealed. Israel’s ethnocide and domicide in Gaza is in violation of most systems of ethics known to man over intellectual history—it is in violation of God’s law, the Ten Commandments. These command not to covet, steal or murder. It is in violation of libertarian law (the axiom of non-aggression). It is in violation of natural justice, the laws of war (although genocide is not war), as well as humanitarian law.

And it is in violation of the systems of law within which the above is subsumed: The natural law and the positive law. …©2025 By ilana mercer

Watch how cowards melt on Facebook, Comments. Watch how it’s done. Take the time:

Are you not yet ashamed to parade as a man who promotes genocide—an onslaught by cowards?? To be the worst of men, without the proverbial male bits?! Castrati! To be have the mentation of a filthy organism squirming in a petri dish? Stay away from this space, human effluent.

(With apologies to petri-dish organisms.)

UPDATE 5/25:  Israelis, speaking in near unanimity, murdered Gaza. The initial cheers of the world have subsided and grown softer. A disgustingly immoral West has come up sharp against the consequences of its crimes ongoing. Western commentators, politicians, public figures—now that Israel’s mission has been completed—wish to salvage their standing in the world. “I was wrong,” say crooked opportunists like Piers Morgan and other genocidal British public figures, including politicians such as Tory MP Mark Pritchard, and Piers Morgan, who, on May 21, 2025, long after Gaza’s destruction, decided to divest from genocide. Ditto echo the editorials in leading newspapers. Worldwide, the boos increase daily. Genocidal criminals—vicariously involved or on active duty—want to salvage their reputations. Don’t let them.

Here they are in action:

“As Gaza Deaths Mount and Soldiers Burn Out, an Israeli Anti-war Movement Is a Matter of Time.”

At the eleventh hour, Germany, Israel’s second largest supplier of baby-busting munitions, is worried about optics. And, it’s safe to protest. The genocide has been accomplished. So, 19 months into the genocide of the Palestinians of Gaza, here’s a whimper from the Teutons:

“Germany’s Chancellor Friedrich Merzagain criticized Israel’s policy in Gaza, saying that Israel’s operations “no longer appears to me as strictly necessary for defending Israel’s right to exist and for combating Hamas terrorism.”

From janitor to general, from foot-soldiers to supreme court justices; in deeds and in words—Israeli society is genocidal. This, by now, is well-established. At all echelons of society, the intent to commit genocide had been established widely and early in the Jewish State’s industrial-scale mass murder of the Palestinians of Gaza and, now, the West Bank.

In Israel, genocide is a national project, not just a state project, says Norman Finkelstein.

Also known by now is that criminality is codified in Israeli law; that genocide, snuff films, extra-judicial assassinations and rape are de facto legal in Israel.  Late in March of 2025, came a ruling from the highest court in this rotting country, the Israeli Supreme Court, “explicitly and directly legitimizing Israel’s illegal blockade of the Gaza Strip.”

Both imbecilic and depraved, the Israeli court used, in support its ruling,

 … the ‘argument’ that the State of Israel is exempt from the obligations of belligerent occupation under international law in all cases pertaining to the Gaza Strip.

Stupid, because, even if you wish to assert a right not to feed the starving occupied besieged people under your rule; you have no right to stop others from doing what international law obliges. The obligation to stop Israel, says Craig Mokhiber, expert in international law, is “an affirmative one, not a passive obligation. ”

Before the ugly gob of a former IDF colonel, Gabi Siboni, came at a pliant West with the latest in Israeli public expressions of genocidal intent. Said this unthinking member of Israel’s think-tank ranks:

“Hamas is not the problem in Gaza. Hamas is a symptom of a bigger problem. The population in Gaza is a barbaric mob. If we don’t wish to bleed our soldiers for decades—because in Gaza there will be Hamas B and C—the only solution is Trump’s ‘vision.'”

https://youtube.com/shorts/7yHv7zA3gGA

https://youtube.com/shorts/7yHv7zA3gGA?feature=shared

As I’ve documented throughout the genocide, “The Jewish State and Israeli Society are equally sick” (May 21, 2024). No doubt, the Israeli State is genocidal, but, by the numbers and by their own statements enacted on the ground—Israeli society is sociopathic.

As uncomfortable as this is for the libertarian methodological individualist; the facts are clear. On the matter of the mass murder of the Palestinians of Gaza; Jewish-Israeli society does not stand apart from the Jewish State.

The remarkable Norm Finkelstein has said so recently, too—also with empirical backing and proof galore. For example, the archival material of Lee Mordechai, an Israeli historian’s examination and documentation of the genocide. As has Professor Finkelstein mentioned one Omer Shatz, an Israeli law professor, who has focused his research on the “distinct crime of incitement to genocide.” Many others have shown that, by their actions and words—Israeli society is genocidal to its rotting core.

As if verification is still needed. For heaven’s sake, listen and look—believe your lying eyes. Given the number of American Idolaters still claiming that conditions in Gaza belie what our “lying eyes” tell us—I continue to recommend a variation on Richard Pryor’s wry logic about he who has been caught in flagrante delicto. The reader must believe his eyes, not the lying Israelis and the mainstream media which will teach you obfuscation, and, more crucially, rob you of the ability to express and correlate reality with language. Believe the evidence in front of your eyes. The Israelis and their Israel First American enablers are, plainly put, lying.

Personally, in my sourcing, I’ve privileged Palestinians, whose lived experience this genocide is. I’ve found that Palestinians have done the best job of transmitting what Western journalism has buried. Palestinian journalists are paragons of virtue and courage. Owen Jones, while not an intellectual (for example, like many others, he fails to understand that “Genocide Is A Crime, Not A War Crime: Israel Is Waging Genocide, Not War”), is, nevertheless, a deeply devoted and feeling British podcaster. Please take the time to watch his tribute to twenty-three year old Journalist Hossam Shabat, murdered, the other day, by Satan. How does a parent live after losing a son such as Hossam Shabat, noble, kind, and brave? With difficulty.

Similarly, when I watch Bisan Owda’s videos from Gaza, I think, “If only I could protect this mere child, spoil her, spirit her away to safety.” What a beautiful and rare gem is Bisan. Kind, courageous, sweet, despite being forced to chronicle the genocide of her people at so young an age.  I’ve never heard a cruel, crude word from this young woman. Her parents must be so proud. G-d Damn IsraHel for threatening this soul, this treasure, and protect Bisan.

For that matter, never believe any Hebrew-English translation come to you via Israel (ask me, first). If Israelis are moving that grimacing cavity on their faces; they are lying. Here Genocider Israel Katz, a defense minister, broadcasts in real time his intent to commit the crime of all crimes. His is the sound of impunity, says Craig Mokhiber, another stellar thinker in law, international and natural.

Should you choose to follow the malfunctioning mainstream media—left & right—you will be years out-of-date with respect to facts and Truth, analytical and empirical.

Katz’ precise words:

“Residents of Gaza, this is the last warning. The 1st Sinwar destroyed Gaza. The second Sinwar will ruin her completely. The assault of the air force against the Hamas terrorists is just the first step. The rest will be many times harder, and you will pay the full price. Evacuations will soon start from areas of battle. If all the Israeli hostages are not released, and Hamas is not expelled from Gaza—Israel will act with the kind of force unfamiliar to you. Take the offer of the president of the US: return the hostages and expel ‘The Hamas’, and other options will then open before you, including migration to other places across the world, for whomever wishes it. The alternative is destruction and complete ruin.

“A child collects up the blood and flesh of his mother.”

UPDATE (3/27): QUIT CORPORATE MEDIA. You must quit the media system, which is heir to Julius Streicher. (He was founder of Der Stürmer, and a Hitler propagandist.) If you don’t, you will fall into error, lose touch with reality; speak with a forked tongue — and think as the abettors of genocide at CNN (or FoxNews, for that matter) do.

Your thinking will be infested with bogus concepts and constructs that do not reflect, but rape reality. Such as: both-sideism (there is no “other side” to genocide), conflict (this is no conflict; Israel wants to exterminate all Palestinians; Palestinians want to LIVE), war (genocide is not war, not legally, not morally), battles (there are no armies arrayed one against the other; Israelis have an Air Force, not a fighting force). And, as media report, “Palestinians were not killed [using the passive voice],” on any give day. Rather, than innocent Palestinians are being executed en masse by Israel. No reference is made to the power differential between genocider and genocided.

An example of mainstream-media propaganda via CNN:

The image of mass-casualty murder over which Gaza’s civilians pray stoically and spiritually is described by CNN as occurring “amid ongoing battles between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas.”

This is the worst of agitprop. As was said above, and as I explained in “Genocide Is A Crime, Not A War Crime: Israel Is Waging Genocide, Not War” (September, 2024), “In Gaza, there are no armies arrayed one against the other. This is no war between equal, opposing warrior forces. There is no parity on the battle field, only, for the most, the bully-boy’s aerial blitzkrieg carried out against a trapped civilian population.”

Craig Mokhiber has underscored that the use of “conflict” nomenclature allows the culprits to leave out the concepts of criminal culpability and genocide.

A day in the life of this poor, poor people forced to live alongside Satan:

UPDATED (4/2): Victimizers as victims.

Israel has slapped a classification “over 20,000 Israeli Children … as victims of terror since Oct 7.” In the style of the Psychiatric Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) for manufacturing illness. The criteria for manufacturing illness under DSM or similar mental-illness manuals are hardly stringent.

In actual life, not according to a manual, tens of thousands of Palestinian children are actually dead, mutilated, permanently and mentally scarred, orphaned without a soul in the world. No psychiatric manual required.

UPDATED (4/6):

Satan can’t silence the deeply felt devotionals of the righteous. Righteous Palestine Red Crescent Society medic recites his last prayers, as SS IDF riddle the medical men with thousands of bullets.

“Oh Lord accept us. Oh Lord accept me as a martyr. Mother forgive me. This is the path I chose … that I help people. …” Until his last breath, which this young man took on March 23. “As he lay dying,” reports Soumaya Ghannoushi of Middle east Eye, “Rifaat Radwan recorded the slaughter of his colleagues, debunking the Israeli army’s version of events.” Habitual liars.

I do, incidentally, believe South Africa, where “anger grows over failure to prosecute nationals fighting for Israel,” will be the first country to successfully prosecute and jail the twisted creeps who travel to Israel to aid in its genocide. Activists, who “allege that authorities have deliberately dragged their feet over prosecutions of individuals believed to have taken part in the war,” are acting.

The IDF’s ‘Aktion’ in northern Gaza resembles nothing short of the ‘liquidation’ of the ghettos of East Europe ~ilana

1/5/025: Speech restrictions stateside in the form of the Antisemitism Awareness Act mirror the worst of British and western Europe’s anti-speech tribunals. Tabled by a Republican and a Democrat and passed by the Upper Chamber, S. 4127 would embed Israeli agitprop throughout American education. For posterity.

Aside being in violation of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, the Antisemitism Awareness Act would utterly enervate discourse in our country, and would actually criminalize tracts like my last:

“SS IDF Is ‘Liquidating’ The North Gaza Ghetto”

12/29/024: Emanations from the collective that is the Israeli mind continue to be as septic as an open sewer. The Church of Satan, IDF, sets up a spa-like facility on the northern coast of Gaza, stolen land. Breakfast, BBQ, mani-pedi and massages are on offer to the killing squads in the killing fields of Gaza.

There’s a lounge for treats, Belgian waffles and pretzels, there are also popcorn and cotton candy machines, as well as a barber and a pedicurist for the fighters.

Surrounded by synthetic grass, and the putrefying bodies of murdered Palestinians.

12/17/024: Yet even the solidarity camp has to keep intoning that Jews oppose the vampiric Zionists. Not quite.  

According to a 2024 Pew Research survey, which misleadingly labels the genocide in Gaza a “military operation,” “Opinion about Israel’s current military operation against Hamas,” reveal that, “Jewish Americans… are quite divided on this question:

28% say Israel’s military operation is going too far.
24% say it has not gone far enough.
32% say it is taking the right approach.
13% are unsure.

The Manhattan Institute polls Jews about a variety of anodyne issues, and buries this tidbit deep down:

“Across all of American Jewry, support for Israel is strong, consistent, and bipartisan (83% of Democratic Jews, 86% of Independents, and 94% of Republicans)”

A disgrace.

“A new ‘non-partisan’ survey by the Jewish Electorate Institute (JEI) released [before the election] shows very high levels of Jewish voters backing Kamala Harris and Democrats in the 2024 elections.”

Kamala Harris had never repudiated Genocide-Joe’s genocide, and had promised to continue doing what was in Israel’s interests. It is fair to deduce then, that genocide was not an overriding issue for Democrat-supporting Jews.

12/11/024: Israelis and their lickspittles pitch a fit when the language of the Nazi Holocaust is applied to the genocide Israel is perpetrating upon the Palestinians.

So I compare. Read. You’ll learn some history:

Newest round-ups for death marches toward the south, the Sinai desert:

You can read “SS IDF Is ‘Liquidating’ The North Gaza Ghetto,” now at IlanaMercer.com

Excerpt:

Israelis and their lickspittles pitch a fit when the language of the Nazi Holocaust is applied to the genocide Israel is perpetrating upon the Palestinians. So here goes:

The northern part of the Gaza Ghetto is being “liquidated” (as remarked on October 31).  Israel’s methodology there is that of the Nazi death squads, who were said to have “liquidated” the ghettos of Eastern Europe before transporting their involuntarily confined Jewish occupants to the extermination camps, in cattle cars.

Going up against ghettoized civilians were the soldiers of the Nazi Party, the SS, the toughest in the Wehrmacht. Like the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), the SS presided over a Kafkaesque apparatus of propaganda, intelligence, police and military bureaucracies.

Plainly put, the purpose of liquidation was deportation to the death camps for extermination. Israel, of course, has further streamlined and industrialized mass eviction and murder by collapsing liquidation and extermination into one. Duly, the IDF is currently attempting to shoo about 400,000 broken and starving human beings in the Strip’s northern most section toward a “safe zone,” the narrow midsection that is the Netzarim Corridor.

The IDF’s “safe zones” bafflegab is reminiscent of the upbeat postcards which deported Jews were urged to mail to their associates: From these condemned Jews, the Nazis, clever and coldhearted, had coerced messages of good cheer: reassuring postcards to folks back home from those who were never coming home. Don’t worry. We’re safe. We’re being ‘resettled’ in a wonderful place. (“Dear wife, I am healthy and I work as a tailor…”)

Since the Palestinians know all too well what is meant by “safe zones”; they are mostly standing their ground. Consequently, the SS IDF is slowly exterminating the residents of northern Gaza in-situ.

As the field monitors of Euro-Med Monitor reported, in the waning days of October, 2024, “Israel is systematically and extensively working to drive out the Palestinian population and forcibly displace them from their residential areas in the northern Gaza Strip.” To that end, they are “using massacres, mass killings, bombings of hospitals and shelters, and the destruction of [the little that remains of the] basic necessities of life.” ……

… Grossaktion Gaza is how the Nazis would have dubbed the SS IDF’s actions.

Aktion or Grossaktion is the term the Nazis used for their assorted ghetto-liquidation operations. Grossaktion Warsaw was the Nazi code name for the liquidation of the Warsaw Ghetto—again, deportation for the purpose of extermination.

The IDF’s Grossaktion Gaza resembles nothing short of the “liquidation” of the ghettos, as detailed by the National WWII Museum (carpeting your victims with bombs is Israel’s contribution to the annals of genocide):

“The liquidation of ghettos involved rounding up all Jewish inhabitants, shooting any resisters, deporting Jews to killing centers, and the physical destruction of the ghetto. Blanka Rothschild describes her memory of the liquidation of the Lodz Ghetto: ‘[When] came our time, we had to be taken out. The entire population of our [building] was walked to the place where the cattle cars were, and we were loaded. It was a horrible thing because people had to stand. There was no place to sit or squat. If somebody was sick or even dying, he died on his feet standing up. It was just unbearable.’ While some were able to escape or were transferred to forced labor camps, the vast majority of Jews who lived in ghettos in Nazi-occupied Eastern Europe perished either from horrid conditions or mass deportations to extermination centers.”

Images are everywhere in Gaza, the north especially, of large groups of naked Palestinian men sitting amid the ruins. CNN had finally deigned to report and depict, on October 30, men old, frail and infirm, wilting out on Gaza’s ruined streets.
