So, no problem presenting what you got from Celia: "Celia Farber, the veteran journalist behind the Substack blog, “The Truth Barrier,” led me to the reports of Mahmood OD"
As we know, Gaza was/is the proving grounds for the larger global population on narrative control, food control, data control, travel control, mind control, water and air control, and economic control.
This is a very deeply sophisticated game the Jews are playing, even though barbarism is so Nazi-Crude that it seems as if the Jewish State of Israel is Out of Control, and that there is discord between the Rapist Trump and the Butcher Bibi.
Thanks for writing, Sir Anthony: No aspersions intended.
Top of the agenda was to push the European Union and the European Court of Human Rights to “adopt and enforce a universal legal definition of antisemitism — with criminal penalties applied across all member states”.
The EJA also wants academia to be forced to toe its line and wants to “tie public funding to university compliance with anti-discrimination standards”. It adds: “Institutions must answer for silencing Jewish voices or enabling hate”.
In parallel, it seeks to silence pro-Palestinian voices on campuses by criminalising points of view it doesn’t approve of.
Referring to the “threat” of “campus radicalization”, it urges: “Treat extremist activity in universities as a security risk — not a student issue”.
The EJA also wants Zionist Jews to have some special new legal status as part of what it terms a “police and prosecutor partnership”.
It seeks to “formalize cooperation between Jewish communities and law enforcement to pursue and prosecute antisemitic hate crimes”.
And it even wants to establish a “Pan-European Jewish Task Force”, a “centralized coordination body to drive legal, political, and security action across countries”.
A few days later another big event in Europe was pushing the same zio-totalitarianism.
HOPE, uh?

In Paris, on May 18 and 19, the European Leadership Network (Elnet) held what it proudly describes as “Europe’s premier biennial pro-Israel conference”.
It declares: “Rampant antisemitism and anti-Israel hate are spreading like never before, and European countries along with the U.S. are at the forefront of these insidious attacks”.
As journalist David Cronin points out, Elnet’s use of the term “global intifada” to describe the numerous public expressions of outrage at Israeli brutality, cynically “smears all the ordinary folk who have joined such protests by insinuating that they are anti-Semites”.
Zionism lies at the rotten core of the EU and Magnus Brunner, EU Commissioner for Internal Affairs and Migration, gave a fawning message to what he described as the “very important conference” in Paris.
He said: “For decades, Israel has been an important partner for the European Union. We share the values of an open and democratic society. The European Union and Israel are natural partners.
“The fight against anti-Semitism is an important part of strengthening our ties to Israel. And equally our ties to Israel are an important part of winning this fight”.
Pretending that nothing at all worrying was happening in Gaza, the Austrian slimeball announced his sympathy only with Israeli victims and “hostages” from October 7, 2023, before going straight on to declare: “Since then, in Europe, including here in France, anti-semitism has spread at an alarming rate.
“We have witnessed scenes of hatred we hoped would never occur again”.
We are living through, among many monumental atrocities, the most serious attack ever on academic freedom at our already already timid, bribed and straight jacketed pseudo institutions of higher learning
And as an organizer of precarious workers, i.e. part-time, just-in-time, 11th hour, freeway flyer faculty, it was clear in the 1980s when I frist was that worker teaching 9 classes at five institutions in El Paso that this caste system in education is so embedded, so messed up. Oh, the temporary or adjunct faculty I worked with were some of the best people and teachers, of course, largely because of the lower level classes we taught and the hard ass decisions we had to make picking up second and thirs jobs outside of academia.
Turncoats, pretentious, elitist, careerist, and the list goes on for that arena.
So now with the Fascism and the Anti-Speech and Anit-Thinking Republicans at the helm after all the goofy crap of the Democrats, we are in this bizarre pickle of supporting Harvard against attacks by the Rapist and Room Temperature IQ POTUS.
I've also organized Amazon workers, and those with Starbucks. And we want unions in Walmart, part of the dirty corporate killers of small-town merchants, and now even larger merchants.
Academic freedom for non-tenure track folk like myself was a daily battle, and the Chickens Have Come Home to Roost with the Little Eichmanns.

Ward Churchill anyone? "Some People Push Back: On the Justice of Roosting Chickens"
Revisiting 9/11, Ward Churchill and Those “Little Eichmanns”
Joshua Frank
In July 2007 Ward Churchill was dismissed from his teaching position in the Ethnic Studies Department at the University of Colorado (CU). While CU administration attested that his ousting was due to scholarly fraud, Churchill argued it was most certainly not, and had much more to do with his controversial political writings on 9/11. The fiery rage directed at Churchill had been fanned by New York’s Republican Gov. George Pataki, Fox News, along with a few liberal windbags. Churchill would later take CU to court where a jury ruled in his favor, noting that not one witness that testified against him on behalf of CU was credible. The jurors also overwhelmingly determined his scholarship was sound and that he was indeed wrongfully terminated. Nevertheless, the judge vacated the ruling. Churchill appealed his case all the way up to the Supreme Court but was denied. The orchestrated witch hunt had served its purpose. He was done.
“If there was a better, more effective, or in fact any other way of visiting some penalty befitting their participation upon the little Eichmanns inhabiting the sterile sanctuary of the twin towers, I’d really be interested in hearing about it,” wrote Churchill in his 2003 book, On the Justice of Roosting Chickens.
Churchill’s “little Eichmanns” was an obvious reference to Hannah Arendt’s Eichmann in Jerusalem, in which she detailed the trial of Adolf Eichmann for his role in orchestrating the Holocaust, coining the phrase “banality of evil”. Eichman, Arendt contended, was not particularly sinister or demented, but a thoughtless dupe in service of mass murder. He was simply carrying out orders, she contended, never weighing their moral implications.
In 2005 I wrote a defense of Churchill and was even invited to debate Joe Scarborough on his old MSNBC show. It was my first appearance on his program and my last on the network. Scarborough was intent to focus on Churchill’s comments, and my response to him was simple: Churchill’s opinion, was just that, an opinion, no matter how unsavory it may have been to Scarborough and others, it was not a scholarly work. In other words, one could disagree with his assessment all they wanted, in fact, they could be vilely offended by it, but his public comments should have absolutely no bearing on his academic scholarship or his job at CU. My second response, which Scarborough especially did not care to hear, was that he was ignoring the context in which Churchill made his statement and the clarification that followed.
It wasn’t only Scarborough or Bill O’Reilly over at Fox that went after Churchill, they were joined by Marc Cooper, who wrote on his blog:
Move over, Mumia. The Left has a new cause celebre that’s a guaranteed loser: Ward Churchill. I saw the essay at the time and was nauseated by it. I have been tempted over the years to write something about it, but have always decided not to. Only because I consider Churchill to be an irrelevant and clearly deranged loner on the edge of the looniest left.
Now I regret not having denounced him. Too bad others on the left also didn’t quickly hurry to divorce themselves from this guy.
Churchill, as you know, surfaced in the news last month when he was invited to speak at an upstate New York university and some conservatives raised a ruckus as they damn well should. If this guy can hang on to his tenure at CU fine. But damned if student funds from somewhere else should be used to host him as some sort of guest speaker.
There was good reason Alexander Cockburn despised Cooper (and rumor has it he even knocked him to the ground after a spat during the 2000 Democratic National Convention in Los Angeles). It was the kind of cheap jab Cooper was known for. He’d spelled out all sorts of ad hominems over the years — from the bashing of Mumia to the castration of Hugo Chavez — Cooper claimed to have reread Churchill’s essay, only to find “it more offensive than when I originally saw it right after 9/11.” If one only read Cooper’s grotesque distortions of Churchill’s analysis (thinking a liberal would at least give Ward a fair crack), they would most likely believe the professor deserved the filthy shit that was shoveled all over his career.
It was easy for Cooper to tear down Churchill because he had taken Churchill’s comment out of context. Prior to his Eichmann line, Churchill set up his case: “They [the 9/11 terrorists] did not license themselves to ‘target innocent civilians.’”
mostly correct unfortunately we are indoctrinated from birth into this world of evil unknowingly or knowingly as we age and evolve BUT WE ARE CONTROLLED AND FIND IT LESS TROUBLESOME WHEN WE WALK THEIR PATH AND THEN DIE NEVER REALLY KNOWING HOW DARK THE REAL NITE IS OR KNIGHT IS? UNLESS YOU WALK IN IT AS AN OBSERVER AND AT TIMES BECOME A PARTISIPENT. RAMGBS.WORDPRESS.COM
I agree with you about the optimism. Without hope the Gazans would all commit suicide and yet there is little suicide in Gaza. And hope and goodness are there amongst them. Good will win out and this is a learning curve for all of us to see the problems with our governmental system - its basically the same globally - was brought in as a copy of the British parliamentary system. It ain't working. And yes, I boycott Rebel News.
OK. "Last question" got me looking at the last sentence. Anyway, fair enough. I asked the question with the view of getting readers to think about the issue I raised. As for my own view, I am somewhat ambivalent. Rebel News does some good reporting on subjects that don't otherwise get much coverage. On the other hand the Zionist themes in Rebel News' coverage basically contaminates the good reporting. Anyone protesting the genocide is automatically labelled by Rebel News as a Hamas supporter who is thereby equated with terrorism.
The idea of applying BDS to Rebel News is a new one to me. The idea came my way after seeing Celia Farber include Rebel News in her commentary on Stillman. On further reflection, if it would help raise awareness of the real questions at issue, my answer is yes. The approach of Rebel News to the genocide is shared by several related media venues started by Ezra Levant and based in Western Canada. They include Western Standard, True North and Juno News. Who invested in starting up all these venues? Was Stillman involved?
Even public discussion on the issue of what is going on in Gaza and what it means for us, is very limited in my region where there are many Christians who are mostly unaware they are getting heavy doses of Zionist indoctrination from their pastors, preachers and even priests.
I have a friend who is a Palestinian Canadian who is active for Palestine and he receives NBs and upbraided me for supporting them by passing on their news links etc. So I started boycotting them. My friend hates Levant. Calls him dishonest
Lack of equipment in Gaza prevents rescuing 50 Palestinians after Israeli deadly strike in northern Gaza
Civil Defence said that its teams had retrieved the bodies of four people and rescued six others from beneath the ruins of a four-storey residential building.
It confirmed that more than 50 individuals remain missing and unreachable “due to a complete lack of the technical capabilities required”.
Rep. Randy Fine: Pro-Palestine Movement Are 'Demons' Who 'Must Be Put Down by Any Means Necessary'
Newly elected Florida Rep Randy Fine rushed to blame "Muslim terror" for the shooting of two Israeli embassy aides in DC on Wednesday night and declared that the pro-Palestine movement are "demons" who "must be put down by any means necessary."
"Muslim terror has come to our Nation's Capital tonight," Rep. Fine said on X. "Two Jews were assassinated by a gunman sporting a terror rag and yelling 'Free Palestine.'"
"It is high time for us to acknowledge there is nothing peaceful about this movement and that these demons must be put down by any means necessary," Fine, who is Jewish, demanded. https://www.informationliberation.com/?id=64936

I don't quite understand why you left your last question unanswered. I am sure many of your readers have a position, but, I also think readers would expect you to take a stand on this, as well. It reminds me a bit of those commentators of old, such as Marvin Kalb, who would never take a stand, leaving the question open, as if there was some serious doubt as to what the answer would be, and that not answering was a sign of maturity and insight.
I looked through the text to find a question. I came up with this, "Are Trump and Netanyahu playing at good cop/bad cop as some observers have speculated?" Is that it? The last sentence of the essay is not a question. As for good cop.bad cop, my answer is maybe. I meant the question to lead into the Aljazerra essay where Marwan poses the question. Or am I missing something. Please be explicit. Thanks AJH
"Should Rebel News become one of the organizations subject to the BDS movement?" That's the question you asked in the last paragraph. You continue on after that, but what is there doesn't actually answer the question. That is what put me in mind of those commentaries of days gone by.
The big question is if Zionism will also end. Will Ukrainians become the new Palestinians?
And although the military war model will be largely abandoned during the coming Chinese cycle of the global domination project, the DigiGulag is being rolled out everywhere.
Will we become the new Palestinians? Shouldn't we be responding with the notion that we are all Palestinians? No one is exempted from the possibility that the rubble we see in Gaza is a foreshadowing of how our world is going to be if we continue along this same trajectory.
What realism, what peace, what world what planet what are we and where did we come from and will we live on in spirit in our mind of fantasy and biblical jargon which so many are indoctrinated by usually at a very young age. Like the catholic church espouses. we will have you for life when we teach you for your first 7 years or something similar.
Thank you, Prof. Hall for the compliment of quoting me... and let me assure you no criticism of you or "Mahmood OD" was intended. Also I'm scarcely a pundit on Israeli affairs; I was "blowing off steam" regarding what I see as an utterly irretrievable human cataclysm, that I am utterly helpless to do anything about... You're no doubt familiar with George Orwell? From "1984"? “Oceania was at war with East Asia. Oceania had always been at war with East Asia”... What's happening between Donald and Bibi is a feint, nothing more.
While I've been aware of "The Jewish Question" for 50 years now, until October 7, 2023 I was prepared like most, to regard it as the result of ignorance and unjustified bigotry; at best an regrettable misunderstanding between The Jews and the rest of us...
3. "My Awakening to the Jewish Question"; an article by the anonymous "Michael" (although I have corresponded with him) which most of your readers and possibly you yourself will find distasteful in the extreme, but alas, that does not change the reality of it: https://thejews.substack.com/p/my-awakening-to-the-jewish-question
4. But most important of all: "What's a Gentile to Do?" https://craignelsen.substack.com/p/whats-a-gentile-to-do. It has only been since October 7, 2023 that I finally understood, this is the reality of what we are dealing with.
Your and Mahmood OD's desire for an end to this is absolutely understandable. Alas, it doesn't work that way with these monsters: "The Jew shall have his pound of flesh".
I follow with appreciation your music reproductions, your small homeworkshop, your employment frustrations as well as people and things Jewish. Keep it up. You speak for many.
I'd like to believe I'm a broad-minded, educated, intelligent and reasonable kind of guy. It appalls me that I find myself saying some of these things--or rather, uttering these WARNINGS!
But history is history, no matter how occulted it might be.

Newly elected Florida Rep Randy Fine rushed to blame "Muslim terror" for the shooting of two Israeli embassy aides in DC on Wednesday night and declared that the pro-Palestine movement are "demons" who "must be put down by any means necessary."
"Muslim terror has come to our Nation's Capital tonight," Rep. Fine said on X. "Two Jews were assassinated by a gunman sporting a terror rag and yelling 'Free Palestine.'"
"It is high time for us to acknowledge there is nothing peaceful about this movement and that these demons must be put down by any means necessary," Fine, who is Jewish, demanded. https://www.informationliberation.com/?id=64936
Thanks Dr. Day for this information-rich response.

sad state of affairs. and then they came for the.... i begin to see where the nazis got their name
I don't quite understand why you left your last question unanswered. I am sure many of your readers have a position, but, I also think readers would expect you to take a stand on this, as well. It reminds me a bit of those commentators of old, such as Marvin Kalb, who would never take a stand, leaving the question open, as if there was some serious doubt as to what the answer would be, and that not answering was a sign of maturity and insight.
I looked through the text to find a question. I came up with this, "Are Trump and Netanyahu playing at good cop/bad cop as some observers have speculated?" Is that it? The last sentence of the essay is not a question. As for good cop.bad cop, my answer is maybe. I meant the question to lead into the Aljazerra essay where Marwan poses the question. Or am I missing something. Please be explicit. Thanks AJH
"Should Rebel News become one of the organizations subject to the BDS movement?" That's the question you asked in the last paragraph. You continue on after that, but what is there doesn't actually answer the question. That is what put me in mind of those commentaries of days gone by.
Illan Pappe believes we are in the end phase of the israeli state. For an in depth article on the global paradigm shift see my site https://thepredatorsversusthepeople.substack.com/p/the-project-for-world-domination.
For a short article see https://thepredatorsversusthepeople.substack.com/p/overlapping-theories-simon-dixon.
The big question is if Zionism will also end. Will Ukrainians become the new Palestinians?
And although the military war model will be largely abandoned during the coming Chinese cycle of the global domination project, the DigiGulag is being rolled out everywhere.
Will we become the new Palestinians? Shouldn't we be responding with the notion that we are all Palestinians? No one is exempted from the possibility that the rubble we see in Gaza is a foreshadowing of how our world is going to be if we continue along this same trajectory.
What realism, what peace, what world what planet what are we and where did we come from and will we live on in spirit in our mind of fantasy and biblical jargon which so many are indoctrinated by usually at a very young age. Like the catholic church espouses. we will have you for life when we teach you for your first 7 years or something similar.
No such word as HOPE action is the only way to see change both good and evil.https://www.meghanmurphy.ca/p/early-access-youre-dealing-with-fanaticism?r=n57tz&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false
Thank you, Prof. Hall for the compliment of quoting me... and let me assure you no criticism of you or "Mahmood OD" was intended. Also I'm scarcely a pundit on Israeli affairs; I was "blowing off steam" regarding what I see as an utterly irretrievable human cataclysm, that I am utterly helpless to do anything about... You're no doubt familiar with George Orwell? From "1984"? “Oceania was at war with East Asia. Oceania had always been at war with East Asia”... What's happening between Donald and Bibi is a feint, nothing more.
While I've been aware of "The Jewish Question" for 50 years now, until October 7, 2023 I was prepared like most, to regard it as the result of ignorance and unjustified bigotry; at best an regrettable misunderstanding between The Jews and the rest of us...
No more. Four things:

2. A 5-minute homily from David Irving on The Hungarian Revolution: https://rumble.com/v2lg09a-david-irving-on-the-hungarian-revolution.html
3. "My Awakening to the Jewish Question"; an article by the anonymous "Michael" (although I have corresponded with him) which most of your readers and possibly you yourself will find distasteful in the extreme, but alas, that does not change the reality of it: https://thejews.substack.com/p/my-awakening-to-the-jewish-question
4. But most important of all: "What's a Gentile to Do?" https://craignelsen.substack.com/p/whats-a-gentile-to-do. It has only been since October 7, 2023 that I finally understood, this is the reality of what we are dealing with.
Your and Mahmood OD's desire for an end to this is absolutely understandable. Alas, it doesn't work that way with these monsters: "The Jew shall have his pound of flesh".
I follow with appreciation your music reproductions, your small homeworkshop, your employment frustrations as well as people and things Jewish. Keep it up. You speak for many.
Thank you for that.
I'd like to believe I'm a broad-minded, educated, intelligent and reasonable kind of guy. It appalls me that I find myself saying some of these things--or rather, uttering these WARNINGS!
But history is history, no matter how occulted it might be.
