A Beach to Walk On
I believe there is an evil in the world, a dark presence that thrives on hate and fear. Call it the devil, call it ideology or conviction of the heart. But something is forcing us to fight each other. The Jews striking back at the Muslims, Trump blaming immigrants for all our problems, friends and family fighting to the mat over who supports which side. It’s as if we are feeding some giant entity, “pawn against pawn,” as Capt. Kirk describes in “Day of the Dove,” an episode that pits Klingons against the Enterprise in a forever war, just to feed some malevolent entity’s unstoppable apatite for fear and hate.
My friend, ¤ Keith Malinowski patiently explains that “it is the Zionists who are behind the genocide in Gaza. Our Zionist owned government, heavily dependent on *AIPAC, is committing genocide for a land theft. Check out Whitney Webb or Norm Bryant. They’ve been documenting the child sex trafficking for blackmail of our politicians operation for over a decade. All the money goes directly back to Israel. All of it. Israel has compromised our entire government.”
I must admit, I didn’t know much about the Zionist cabal. I knew there was something sinister behind the Gaza massacre, which has been a completely disproportionate response to the October 7th massacre. Netanyahu clearly intends to take this opportunity to wipe Palestine off the map. It all goes back to the Iran-Contra affair and involves providing sex trafficking of minors to Arab leaders, which is all in a Senate report, according to the afore mentioned Whitney Webb, the investigative journalist. It get’s very seedy. But why would the Israeli government be involved in all that? Of course, nothing will surprise me anymore. I do know Trump is owned by Putin and is still a Russian asset and has been since the 90’s. I’ll leave it to you to dig into all the rest. I have paintings waiting to be done.+
The Hope
Thank you, Keith, for opening my eyes. It makes some sense that the same force/motivation driving Trumpism is also behind Zionism. And that force is revenge. But what’s really in it for them, aside from revenge? How much money and sex and revenge and power does anyone need? It’s too deplorable for words. I took a stroll down the Whitney Webb rabbit hole. I get that Trump is transactional, he is a “deal maker.” And that a lot of these deals are being made with big tech. Trump believes rightly, we are in a war with China over AI. Ms. Webb points to how for years, US corporations have provided China the tech, with which we are now competing. And the winners of this AI arms race will be those in control of it, while the rest of us will be controlled, dependent upon the controllers, causing continued cognitive diminishment in the general populous. A sort of new feudalism is emerging. Ms. Webb points out that US leaders believe in order to win the AI war with China we will have to become more like China. Those in control of AI will provide all the answers; the handlers of AI will essentially dictate and determine what is truth to the masses. The civil/military fusion is already beginning, as Trump deploys the military more and more into “blue” cities. It is clear, the elite do not care one iota about building the middle class and are in fact trying to destroy it. A fundamental transfer of wealth out of the middle class into the hands of a few elite is well underway and gathering steam. We will be provided comfort and convenience in exchange for the civil liberties we have taken for granted for too long.
Keith says, “ask yourself why our politicians have to consort with their AIPAC donors before voting on anything? Follow the money. Zionism is anti-Semitic and anti Jewish. And underneath Zionism is a deep hatred of the Jews.” Trump’s and most of our government’s relationship with Netanyahu is strictly one of convenience. There will come a time when the Jews are in Trump’s crosshairs, believe me. Now we can begin to see how and why they frame anyone who opposes Zionism as anti-Semitic. Some of my Jewish friends are caught in the Zionist rhetoric. Most Jews I know are aware Netanyahu doesn’t speak for the Jewish cause. How ironic and sinister it is to wave an Israeli flag while calling for the extermination of another group (Palestinians), just like what was done to Jews at the hands of Germans in the 1940s.
All this to say, revenge never solved any problem, never has, in all of human history. Hate, fear and revenge only create more hate, fear and revenge. It is an endless cycle. When will the world finally understand that?

* AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, is a pro-Israel lobbying group in the United States. It works to strengthen the relationship between the U.S. and Israel by influencing public policy and supporting pro-Israel candidates in elections. AIPAC is a bipartisan organization with a large membership base and significant financial resources. AIPAC has faced criticism for its influence on U.S. foreign policy, particularly regarding its role in shaping unconditional support for Israel and its targeting of progressive Democrats who support Palestinian rights, according to The Stream.

¤ Keith wants anyone reading this “to be certain that most everything I’ve learned about Israel and Zionism since October 7 has come directly from anti Zionist Jews. They’re at the forefront of the Free Palestine movement. I stand with them. I also feel for Zionist Jews who have been subjected to a lifetime of Zionist propaganda. I’ve done a lot of deprogramming from colonialism and now Zionism and while it’s extraordinarily freeing, it’s also a lonely place where not enough people are fighting for the truth. The truth exists. It’s not impossible to find today. The ruling class is several different mafias wrapped into one big giant corrupt scheme that we call capitalism. Seeing as how capitalism depends upon never ending profit and never ending consumption, it will never get us to the place we need to be as a species trying to survive. We have some work to do and it starts and ends with truth:-)”
