Hebrew Settlement and Exile Contradicts Colonist Claim
Campus and Café Society’s consolidation of its causes around colonialism concentrates on Israel’s guilt as a coloniser. Israel is its own homeland with its own indigenous people with their own sovereignty over their own ancestral land.
Colonists are required to have a homeland from which to venture forth on their colonising.
Israel’s homeland is Israel.
Activist ability to enforce a blackout on Israeli indigeneity exists courtesy of a politico-media-academic complicity.
In the conflict between Iran and Israel utterly ignored is the return to their homeland circa 500BC of the Jewish tribes freed by the ruler of Persia , now Iran, Cyrus the Great (pictured.)
Cyrus the Great is recorded as freeing the captured Jews in order that they rebuild their temple. The first temple, Solomon’s, was originally constructed circa 1000BC.
Activist success in spreading the notion that Israel is a colonial state has much to do with the deliberate disappearance from education of the history of civilisations.
Israel’s popular support reached an unreserved peak with the Six Day War in 1967 viewed at the time as a war of national liberation from an overwhelmingly hostile external threat.
The next such large scale attack in 1973 saw Israel caught by surprise. The Yom Kippur war saw heroes of the Six Day War such as Lieutenant General David Elazar become pilloried for their lack of preparedness.
Israel’s fall from grace with the intelligentsia gathered speed with the fall of the Berlin Wall.
It was now that the communist movements regrouped.
The old class struggle modified into the oppressors (the colonisers) and the oppressed (the colonised.)
The underpinning communist era influence is evident today in the reluctance of radicals to categorise Russia's invasion of Ukraine as anything to do with colonising
The fact that Israel occupies one four hundredth of the Middle East territory did not diminish its new cultural role as that of a Goliath scale colonist.
Identity/climate morphed into the carry-all colonising which in turn now consolidated around the Jewish state and its diaspora.
This is notably in the United States where the Jewish-founded media especially in New York and Washington turned with relish upon Israel and its right to defend itself. The same thing happened on the US West Coast where Hollywood simultaneously turned snarling upon Jews who had founded their industry.
The new amalgam of causes in turn colonised the media channels mirroring the way in which the real life colonisers had once commandeered the sea channels.
A Hebrew phrase summarises Judaism today. It is Tikkun Olam meaning Jews repairing the world.
It is often interpreted by Jews as meaning that this can only occur if Jews stop fighting among themselves - a notable characteristic of elected Jews in the English speaking zone.
The fall of the Berlin Wall in 1990 re-wrote the book on activism.
Agitators deftly erased from institutional memory notably in education the Holocaust known by Jews as Shoah.
This cleared the way for activists to engineer an historical inversion in which Jews were not the oppressed but instead the oppressor as colonists derived from a Latin word for settler-farmers.
Old style colonists seized control of the sea routes.
Activists framing Israel as a contemporary coloniser now control instead of sea channels the information channels notably the state owned broadcasting networks.
Slickly the agitators position as co-defendants in their colonist smear the diaspora who in defending Israel are portrayed as co-conspiracy colonists.
Harvard has an immense investment in its Divinity School. Also Yale where theological education was the motivation for its founding. Thus there is hardly a shortage of resources relating to Jewish indigeneity.
There remains the failure of these repositories of learning with their sprawling history faculties to remind at the very least their own students that Israel’s homeland at various times has been colonised by the Persians, Greeks, Romans , Crusaders, and well into modern times by the Ottomans.
In the British colonies as they were described until so very recently colonial era authority Robin Bromby In his book Tepid Whisky by Paraffin Lamp: Life and Work in Outposts of the British Empire in the Twentieth Century describes how most of the operational colonists, the real ones, in the event led a life of dutiful humdrum hardship.
They were oblivious to the evolution of their vocation into dogma only a century or so later.
Semitic is another re-purposed word. It refers not to a people or a country. But to their language. One semitic language is Arabic. Another is Hebrew.
Antisemitic is thus a euphemism propagated by academia and by another sector that should know better which is the Jewish press, notably in Israel itself.
The Jewish diaspora apologises when radicals step on their territorial toes. They might instead proclaim on historical grounds that this land is their land.
