The Israel lobby is attempting to indoctrinate Americans that the context for the October 7 attack is the Holocaust. This is a misrepresentation. The Palestinians had nothing to do with the Holocaust.

Americans are overwhelmingly for ceasefire by 4 to 1, and Democrats by more than 7 to 1. The reason Biden can’t lift a finger in the face of genocide is that he is afraid of alienating the Israel lobby as a force for his reelection. It’s that simple.

For the last four months the great despair and anguish of our American readers was that the official narrative has kept creaking along in utter indifference to atrocities and destruction on a scale that recalls World War 2. That is changing.

A recent Guardian article documenting CNN’s bias toward Israel was impressive but lacked one crucial detail: Why CNN has such bias. You don’t have to look farther than CEO David Zaslav to understand the answer is Zionism.

Progressives are shouting down Biden speeches over his support for Israel’s ethnic cleansing of Gaza, while Arab-American leaders challenge Biden, “See you in November.” And the press is finally stating that the brutal policy could cost Biden the election.

The International Court of Justice rules that it is “plausible” Israel is carrying out genocide in Gaza. Meanwhile, the West debates what term to use for this historical savagery. Even as it sends shells and blessings to the Israeli bombers.  

Zionism’s promise to give Jews freedom in their own land has utterly failed. Jews are more insecure in Israel than ever, while American Jews’ promise to support Israel blindly has allowed Israel to paint itself into a fascistic supremacist corner.

Netanyahu’s declaration that he will not tolerate the creation of a Palestinian state exposed the glaring hypocrisy of Biden policies. And earned mild rebuke from Democrats.

Israel supporters have had such kid-glove treatment for so long they have lost all sense of reality and proportion. But the New York Times is cosseting them.

A central claim by Israel’s advocates is that supporting Israel is in the U.S. interest. There can be no greater farce when our country has bombed another Arab country to support Israel’s genocide.
