How much longer can Zionist racism pull the wool over the world's eyes?

Zionism is the greatest calamity to have befallen humanity. First of all, it rests on a bigoted racism. Its racism is of dangerous proportions. It sees itself as the most important, indeed the only important, people in the world. It rests on the idea that the world, with all the creatures living in it and of course with its little human beings, was created for them. Therefore other people, people who do not belong to the new people of Israel, have no choice other than to serve them or to die.

That is why the scenes we watch from morning till night with great horror, anxiety and grief, of the deaths of children, women and civilians, of buildings razed to the ground, of a house of worship attacked and burned, can cause an animal-like exultation in their eyes even in front of the place they call the Wailing Wall.

The answers that Israelis, young and old, women and men, give in random interviews on Israeli streets show how terrifying the dimensions this racism can reach. Those you take for human beings when you look from the outside open their mouths and speak of Palestinians or Arabs, children and elderly alike, as "terrorists who must be killed," on the mere strength of a pretext.

It is not possible to call these creatures human beings, who weep only for their own pains and greet the pains of others as if at a wedding feast. But this approach, which strips a person of humanity, is nothing other than Zionist racism. This racism can see in itself the right to occupy these lands, to expel the people on them, and to massacre those who resist, without distinguishing between children and adults. To the objection to this right they display an incomprehension that seems stupid at first glance: Why are the Palestinians objecting to being deported, massacred, thrown out of their homes? The masters of the world have come and taken their place. They have already lived here too long. Isn't leaving their places without any resistance the only way for them?

On top of that comes the brazenness of being able to portray as terrorists to the world the people of Gaza, whom they have kept under siege for 15 years, whose electricity, gas, bread and water they cut whenever they wish, whose every piece of incoming material they keep under control, and whom, as if that were not enough, they bomb from the air as they like, killing thousands of them and committing every crime against humanity in full, even when a single rocket comes from them.

That it has attained the luxury of this brazenness is the real great danger in itself. The world has formed a great alliance in not being willing to call the very worst terror, the very finest massacre and genocide, either terror or even a crime against humanity. A large part of the world sees what has happened just the way the criminal terrorist state wishes to show it. Because Zionism displays its audacity in reversing history first of all by turning facts inside out.

It is a fantasy of making a Jerusalem experience that took place 2,500 years ago live again under present-day conditions. Reversing the course of history for the sake of this fantasy. This is the simplest description of Zionism. Sigmund Freud, himself a Jew, called this obstinacy a desire to return to the mother's womb, pointing both to its impossibility and to its degree of perversion. For Freud, what mattered was not that the thing was impossible, but to show on what kind of desire such a conception of history rests.

To realize even the appearances of this ontologically impossible undertaking, it is necessary to disturb the peace of the whole world, to make world peace impossible, to make the world a diaspora for everyone.

It is necessary to take diaspora out of being an experience peculiar to Jews alone and to turn it into a condition that everyone will live far more meaninglessly.

Since this requires an organization on a global scale, it is necessary to mobilize, employ and use as many societies, groups, states and nations as possible for this great journey.

We are not exaggerating when we say that the US, which, with all its politicians, academics, business world and media representatives, appears to have devoted its existence to the existence of Israel, is under the occupation of Zionism. When the Austrian Chancellor and the German Foreign Minister speak of "Israel's right to defend itself" while not even one Israeli has yet had a bloody nose and the body parts of children and adults in Gaza, torn to pieces by Israeli villainy, are flying through the air, it shows that a significant part of Europe too is under the occupation of Zionism or is being employed by it. Germany is not a free country; it has no role other than supporting Israel, and cannot have. A country called Austria has no existence at all vis-à-vis Israel.

Zionism, for the sake of realizing a prophecy that it thinks belongs to the Jews, makes all the people of the world, their lives, property, histories, hopes and desires, play as extras of no importance in the play it has staged. That is why it burns so many lives.

Even so, criticizing this racist Zionism, a calamity for humanity, is today counted as hostility to Jews, as anti-Semitism, among the gravest crimes on the scale of crimes against humanity. This alone, in fact, suffices to show what a calamity Zionism is. It can display every kind of hostility toward all constructions, it can commit every kind of hatred and crime against humanity, it can be seen as entitled to this, yet no one can look at it sideways, no one can say "shoo" to its chicken. That it has managed to make the whole world adopt this logic, beyond reason and sense, as a norm... This is the greatest symptom of the danger anyway.

Yet let us end by pointing to the light of hope. It is precisely at the place where the danger reaches such a summit that the saving power grows. We are in the moments when this logic has become most rabid, and at the point where it has become most rabid we are also witnessing it beginning to demolish itself.
