(Life is routine at this Tel Aviv cafe while a genocide takes place 30 miles away.)

HenryMakow.com – April 11, 2025

When I was in my twenties, I used to lull myself to sleep by imagining I was gunning down “Palestinian terrorists” who were attacking my kibbutz.

by Henry Makow PhD

I considered immigrating to Israel in 1972 and lived there for nine months.

I went to Labor Zionist summer camps as a youth.

In 1970, I huddled in a bunker at Kibbutz Ashdod Yaakov during a mortar attack.

I’m writing this because I hung out with Zionist Jews when I was young. They were good people.

Charming, warm, funny, smart. I never encountered a pejorative attitude to Gentiles.

What has happened to you?

How can you participate or condone this genocide?

Can’t you see that the Hamas attack was orchestrated by Netanyahu to justify ethnic cleansing?

The IDF stood down for seven hours to allow the trauma brainwashing to be effective.

Hamas was funded by Israel to avert the two-state solution.

Can’t you see? You have been duped.

Zionists funded Adolf Hitler to trauma brainwash Europe’s Jews. Zionists foster antisemitism to control their fellow Jews.

Many Jews oppose Israeli barbarism and support the two-state solution. Not all are Soros’ Communist puppets.

Many like Max Blumenthal and the folks at Electronic Intifata  are courageous and principled people whom I admire.

CONSIDERED ALIYAH
