Rape denial is always bad, but it’s stomach-turning when Jews engage in rape denial in order to belong to the others—to the rest of the world, the people who aren't Jews. After all, the atrocities of October 7 are well documented. The perpetrators filmed themselves with their GoPro cameras as they raped and maimed, burned and slaughtered Jews.Norman Finkelstein: “It warms every fiber of my soul”
Norman Finkelstein doesn’t want to. He will never begrudge
those Hamasnikim a chance to use Jewish women until they die. That’s pretty much
what Norman
Finkelstein wrote of Hamas on October 7, 2023:
“If we honor the Jews who revolted in the Warsaw Ghetto—then
moral consistency commands that we honor the heroic resistance in
Gaza. I, for one, will never begrudge—on the contrary, it warms every
fiber of my soul—the scenes of Gaza’s smiling children as their arrogant
Jewish supremacist oppressors have, finally, been humbled.
“The stars above in heaven are looking kindly
down. Glory, glory, hallelujah. The souls of Gaza go
marching on!
Imagine that, a Jew giving glory to God because Jewish women
were raped and dismembered, Jewish children burned, and Jewish parents shot
dead in front of their Jewish children. Why is it okay, no matter the religion
of the victims, no matter their politics? Why does it warm his heart when
Jewish women are raped until they die?
It is clear that Finkelstein suffers from mental illness.
Alternatively, he could be just plain evil. His beliefs certainly are.
I probably should have saved Finkelstein for last. His
betrayal is truly the worst of all the court Jews, all the Jews who go after
their own, smearing them as publicly as possible, as if to say, “I’m not one of
them, truly! I want to belong!”
Jonathan Glazer: Bashing Israel at the Oscars
Another insane/evil person wanting to belong to the
non-Jewish world is unhinged Jewish filmmaker Jonathan Glazer, who won an Oscar in 2024 for
his Holocaust-themed film, The Zone of Interest. Glazer used his acceptance
speech to—what else—bash Israel. “Our film shows where dehumanization
leads, at its worst, it shaped all of our past and present. Right now, we stand
here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an
occupation that has led to conflict for so many innocent people.
“Whether the victims of October the 7th in Israel or the
ongoing attack on Gaza, all the victims of this dehumanization. How do we
resist?” said Glazer, his loathing for his co-religionists on full display.
Max Blumenthal: Crazy Conspiracy Theorist
And now for Max
Blumenthal. In a November 2023 podcast titled What Really Happened in Israel on Oct. 7?, Blumenthal
flatly denied Hamas atrocities, calling them lies spun to give Israel a pretext
to rid Gaza of its inhabitants:
“We have all these new
stories about babies baked in ovens, we’ve heard stories about babies cut out
of mothers’ wombs by so-called Hamas terrorists, rape, gang rape, women after
being taken, gang raped in the streets in Gaza City... All of these lies were
spun out... to give Israel the latitude to carry out this genocidal assault.”
But he wasn’t done. He
dissected the story of a baby burned in an oven, spinning a wild narrative
involving confused first responders, bags of body parts, and a Hellfire
missile:
“He actually had not seen
any baby in an oven... It was someone named Eli Moskowitz... who said that he
found a small bag with contents of body parts... pressed against a heating
element... It was likely a Hellfire missile... body parts blown to bits... put forward
as an Israeli baby.”
The level of cognitive
distortion here is remarkable — but it’s not meant to persuade. It’s meant to muddy.
Because for those who hate Jews, no evidence is necessary. And when a Jew
denies rape, it makes it easier to disbelieve — or justify — everything else.
Judith Butler: War Is Peace. Rape Is Resistance.
Judith Butler, the
academic known mainly for the length of her sentences and her hate for Israel,
ran true to form when she described the October 7 Hamas massacre as “armed
resistance.” Called on to defend
her statement, she doubled down.
“We can have different views as Hamas as a political party,
we can have different views on armed resistance, but I think it is more honest
and historically correct to say that the uprising of October 7 was an act of
armed resistance. It is not a terrorist attack and it’s not an antisemitic
attack, it was an attack against Israelis.”
In other words, it’s not antisemitic when the Jews are
Israeli. Got that?
Ilan Pappé: "Policies of Oppression"
Deranged Jew-hating Jewish academic, Ilan Pappé, justified the October 7 massacre as “an effort to dramatically change the balance of power and redirect the world’s attention to the Palestine issue” which had been put on the world’s metaphorical backburner because, you know, Ukraine:
The narrative in the Western media is that the Hamas attack on Israel on 7 October 2023 came out of the blue and was orchestrated by Iran. This narrative purposely ignores the intensification of Israel’s policies of oppression against the Palestinians, driven by the ideology of the new government, including massive arrests without trial, a shoot-to-kill policy targeting mainly teenagers, the tightening of the siege on the Strip, and encouraging settlers and the police to invade the al-Aqsa mosque, the third holiest place in Islam, with the aim of rebuilding, in its stead, a Jewish temple.
The Hamas assault was partly a response to these new policies, as well as an effort to dramatically change the balance of power and redirect the world’s attention to the Palestine issue, which had been marginalised since the outbreak of the war in Ukraine.
There you have it, all neat and tidy, wrapped up with a bow. That’s how Pappé does it. Mass rape and beheadings conveniently reframed as nothing more than a PR strategy—a PR stunt that gives cover to Israel "true" intent: to invade Al-Aqsa mosque.
The Most Dangerous Jews Are the Ones Who Just Want to Be Loved
What binds these people
together — Finkelstein, Glazer, Blumenthal, Butler, Pappé — is not ideology.
It’s a desperate yearning to be accepted by the world that hates them.
To be seen not as Jews, but as good Jews. Useful Jews. Jews who prove their
morality by turning against their own.
They suffer, in the words
of scholar Shaul Bar-Haim, from internalized antisemitism: a condition where the “otherness” imposed
on Jews by gentile society is accepted and echoed by Jews themselves — often
louder than anyone else.
But let’s call it what it really is: betrayal.
Betrayal wrapped in intellectual language. Dressed up as
activism. Justified with words like “resistance” and “complexity.”
It’s all a disguise — a way to distance themselves from
their own, to prove they’re different, better, worthy of acceptance.
And the damage they do is incalculable — not only to their people,
but to humanity itself.
In the end, turning your back on your own is neither courage nor conscience, but
cowardice. And cowardice, when dressed as virtue, is the most dangerous kind of
lie.
