Genocide Rewarded ?

A United Nations Commission of Inquiry, composed of experts on the law of Genocide, has reported that Israel is committing Genocide in Gaza, naming Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Isaac Herzog as having “incited the commission of genocide”.

The President says he is proud to be named in this way by the UN, because it proves that he is on the right side.

The United Nations, which authorised the establishment of a Jewish State in Palestine in 1948, has long sinc been denounced by the Jewish State as an Anti-Semitic conspiracy.  By that denunciation, the Jewish State declared its independence of the world.

The practical founder of the Jewish State was Britain.  The British War Coalition, under Liberal leadership, adopted Jewish nationalist claims to eternal right in Palestine when it was completing the conquest of the Middle East in 1917.  It did so for reasons to do with Imperial Government.  It saw advantage in colonising the Palestine region with Jews as the foundation of a Jewish State which would be a Dominion of the British Empire, and would be a means of countering the Arab population of the Middle East—a population Britain itself had stirred into political action as a force in its war to destroy the Ottoman (Turkish) State, of which the area had formed a peaceable part.

But, while undertaking to impose a Jewish population and a Jewish State on the Middle East, Britain gave guarantees to the Arabs that the Jewish State would not do to them what it is now doing.

The interesting thing is that the Liberal lobby which pressed for the establishment of a Jewish colonial state in 1917 knew that it would behave towards the native populations of the Middle East as it is now behaving.

They knew this—in the sense of expecting that it would be the case—because they had familiarised themselves with the conduct of the Jewish State two thousand years earlier.  This was a State that the Roman authorities had first allowed to be established but later found it necessary to destroy.  The British Government assumed that Jewry in the 20th century remained true to what it was in the 1st century of the Christian era.

The Christian era is now called the “Common Era” for no very good reason.  

The great division that began two thousand years ago, when the Jewish State was being destroyed as a barbarian development by the Romans, and Judaism rejected the Christian development that had sprouted within it, has not yet worked itself out and been superseded by something utterly different.

It might be that China—which the Christian world failed to destroy and absorb during the last two hundred years—will, in its regeneration, establish a post-Christian world, less climactic in its manners, assumptions and expectations than Christianity has been, but that is not yet the case.

The era we are living in is 2025 of the Year Of The Lord, Anno Domini [AD].  And the insistence of the Jewish State on living in its own civilisation in disregard of the surrounding world continues.

The difference is that the Roman Empire, which brought the Jewish State to order then, adopted the Christian heresy rejected by Judaism, developing it into a world religion.  But that world seems to be disabled, by the Jewish origins it has carried with it, from laying down the law to the Jewish State about what it is and is not allowed to do.

The responsibility lies, of course, with Britain, which laid the foundations of the Jewish State, knowing that it was an alien structure needing to be kept under control.  But Britain is not now capable of accepting responsibility for anything.

The British Government disowned responsibility in 1947 when the Jewish population it had brought into Palestine launched a terrorist war against the British administration.  The Labour Government washed its hands of the situation, leaving the Jewish State—which it had made possible—free to act according to its own conception of things.

Here is the warning about the Jewish State, written by the Christian lobbyist advocating its establishment, in the book which accompanied the Balfour Declaration:  England And Palestine by Herbert Sidebotham, War Correspondent of the Manchester Guardian, which was Prime Minister Lloyd George’s paper:

“The conquests of the Maccabees were not for the good of Palestine.  Not only was the Greek civilisation that had done so much for the economic development of the country destroyed, but every race or civilisation that was not Jewish was treated with merciless cruelty or oppression.  The ideas of the Maccabean rulers, surrounded by a halo when they are fighting against an alien domination, became detestable when they are imposing their own domination on others.  They were indeed justified in striving for the whole of the national inheritance, which was not limited to Judea.

But the one chance of permanence for the Jewish state of Palestine was that they should make allies of the surrounding peoples and show by wise tolerance that it was capable of governing others.  This chance they missed, and the glory of the Maccabees, if it is an inspiration, is also a warning to any future Jewish state in Palestine”  (p48).
