On the matter of “antisemitism”, we are now so far down the rabbit hole that the word no longer need have any reference to “hating Jews”.
Even the supposedly liberal Guardian uses the term unquestioningly to mean “being nasty about Israel” – a state whose genocidal behaviour towards the Palestinian people over the past two years should mean it is almost impossible to say anything too nasty about it.
Take the following absurd headline from the paper: “London venue ‘appalled’ after antisemitic imagery allegedly screened at Primal Scream gig.”
Let’s deconstruct this headline. Notice there are no quote marks around “antisemitic”, meaning the paper takes it as read that the imagery is indeed antisemitic.
There are quote marks around “appalled”, indicating that the London venue, the Roundhouse, is being directly quoted rather than paraphrased. And the word “allegedly” is included throughout the article for legal reasons, and relates to the matter of the screening not the imagery, presumably in case the Roundhouse’s claim that the band Primal Scream displayed the image turns out to be factually incorrect.
So what was this unquestionably “antisemitic” imagery?
The story explains that Primal Scream projected a video on to a screen behind the band during their concert earlier this month in which a swastika merged with a Star of David, the symbol on the Israeli flags flying from tanks in Gaza.
The Guardian uncritically reports: “A spokesperson for the Roundhouse said they were ‘appalled that antisemitic imagery was displayed’ at the venue’,” and that it had apologised to “the wider Jewish community”.
The paper does nothing to distance itself, as it should have done, from this accusation. For example, it could have reported the incident as follows: “A spokesperson for the Roundhouse said it was ‘appalled’ at what it claimed was a display of ‘antisemitic imagery’.”
One can debate whether entwining the swastika with the Star of David is in bad taste, given that Israel chose to turn a Jewish symbol, the Star of David, into its national emblem, on its flag and on its warplanes. Remember, though, that it was Israel that intentionally created this confusion – not Primal Scream, not Israel’s critics.
One can also accept that Jews who identify with Israel probably found the screened image offensive.
The question is whether we should prioritise caring about offending those Jews and non-Jews who identify with Israel, even as it continues to slaughter and starve children in Gaza, more than we care about the Palestinians being murdered by the state worshipped by Israel’s supporters.
I would suggest those priorities are utterly back to front.
Nearly 18,000 babies and new mothers hospitalised in Gaza for acute malnutrition in October alone. Israel is allowing in less than 25% of the aid trucks it promised in the “ceasefire” deal.
Don’t believe the spin: the genocide isn’t over.

But even so, nothing indicates that Primal Scream were using “antisemitic” imagery. It is clear from the rest of the article that they were not doing what their critics – including the Roundhouse and the Guardian – are actually doing, which is conflating Israel with Jews.
From the description, the band’s intentions are evident. The Guardian reports that “images of the destruction in Gaza” were screened, and the video concluded with the words: “Our government is complicit in genocide.”
Primal Scream were using the Star of David to refer to the Israeli government, just as one would use the Union Flag to refer to the UK government.
In other words, Primal Scream’s message wasn’t “Hate Jews”. It was that Israel is committing a genocide, like earlier genocidal regimes, and it is shameful that the British government is colluding in these crimes.
That seems a pretty reasonable assessment of the past two years to me. There is no reason to doubt it will have been understood that way by anyone in the audience who is not fanatically blinded by their support for Israel.
It should be incumbent on any person whose moral compass is still intact to denounce what Israel is doing, as well as western governments’ complicity in its crimes.
Genocidal monsters – whether Germany in the 1940s, or Rwanda in the 1990s, or Israel in the 2020s – cannot be vilified. Why? Because they are the worst sort of villains. It is not a crime to denounce these genocidal regimes. The crime is not characterising them as monsters. That only normalises their behaviour.
That is why every major human rights organisation and the international association of genocide scholars have spoken up against the genocide, and why the International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Israeli leaders for committing crimes against humanity.
It is our governments and the media that are pretending none of this is happening. They are the ones still trying to persuade us that anyone who speaks up is driven by Jew hatred rather than a moral core that screams: “This is wrong!”
A fervently pro-Israel lobby group, the Community Security Trust, has reported Primal Scream to the police, warning that the display “encourages hatred of Jews”.
No, it encourages hatred of genocide, which is a good thing.
It encourages opposition to a depraved ethno-nationalist state that, according to a ruling last year from the International Court of Justice, has been carrying out a decades-long, illegal military occupation of Palestinian territory; denied the Palestinian people a state; ethnically cleansed Palestinians from their homeland while illegally transferring Jewish militias on to their lands; and is operating a system of apartheid rule.
Oh, and the same court is currently investigating Israel for genocide, having also ruled last year that South Africa made a “plausible” case that Israel was committing this ultimate crime against humanity.
The only people encouraging hatred of Jews are the Community Security Trust and complicit media like the Guardian that normalise the false idea that all Jews support Israel and its genocide.
They have turned the world upside down. They wrongly make Jews appear to be genocidal monsters for being Jews, rather than the truth. Which is that the genocidal monsters are all those – whether Jews or non-Jews – who deny or excuse the mass slaughter of Gaza’s people. That includes ministers in Keir Starmer’s government and Britain’s repugnant Chief Rabbi, a man who praises Israel’s genocidal army as “our soldiers”.
They all deserve their place in the dock at The Hague. And if there is any justice, they will one day end up there.
Primal Scream, meanwhile, deserve our respect for refusing to cave into the establishment campaign of pressure to silence those reminding us that there is a genocide going on – and exactly who is responsible for it.
UPDATE:
Good to see Primal Scream holding their nerve, so far, against the establishment onslaught.
This appears to be the image that has caused so much offence:
Primal Scream responded on Instagram to the furore: “The film is a piece of art. It clearly draws from history to question where the actions of current world governments sit in that context.
“It is meant to provoke debate, not hate. In a free, pluralistic and liberal society freedom of expression is a right which we choose to exercise.”

Yawn. Does it matter who IS a jew and who’s merely licking their arse for sheckels? As no one will fight it’s pointless.
Stopped reading after “…in which a swastika merged with a Star of David, the symbol on the Israeli flags flying from tanks in Gaza.”
More lefties showing their loathing for Israel because of their genocide of Palestinians instead of what they really should be concerned with which is the ongoing Jewish obliteration of the western civilization.
The battle for freedom isn’t in Palestine, as I care not for the descendants of the Canaanites; but instead here, in the UK, where the Jewish hydra inhabits, within the City of London.
Palestine is yet another fire, another distraction, while Mr Hook Nose moves forward with his complete domination of the world. It’s like a modern day Charybdis, sucking in anything and everything that gets close, dragging them into the conflict as they immediately forget of the matrix totalitarian state being created in the west, by the Jew, even though led to believe it’s bad, wealthy, white men.
The UK is getting a taste of Palestinian behaviour, now here and riding roughshod over our culture, showing no signs of respect as they organise protest after protest having invaded every movement, for whatever. It’s a colossal smoke and mirror show.
People falsely imply that the only anti semitism going on is Zionist to Palestinian, when there’s nothing, whatsoever Semitic in Palestine (or anywhere in there middle east for that matter). As stated, they’re Canaanites, of Ham, thus Hamitic, not Shemitic. The small number of middle eastern Jews are also Canaanites while the large number of Ashkenazi are Japhethites, mixed with Mongol & African. It’s one, big, pot of mixed bloodline (mamzers) minestrone. The first corruption resulted in the flood. The second corruption resulted in the plagues of Egypt. There third, yet to come, is the cleansing of the earth with the return of Yahushua. And the reality that people fail to see is that the Jews are bringing in their New World Order, to destroy the pedigree Adamites who remain on this earth (in the west), believing (wrongly) that by destroying the Adamic bloodline, there will be no need for the return of the King, for there will be no one left to redeem.
This is YHWH’s world, not theirs. He sees them as nothing more than weeds in his garden, corrupt strains, not of his making.
As John 8:44 illustrates, they lie, continually. He cares not for any Jew/mongrel. He is not their creator. They know who they are and from whence they came, but they maintain the illusion of being ‘God’s Chosen’ to continue the Pantomime, stupidly believing they can pull a fast one on YHWH.
@Harbinger…so close but missing the fact that Jesus already returned in 70AD, and physical evidence of tribulation and his kingdom is on every continent (except for Antarctica of course, which we aren’t allowed to see). The maps, history, and timeline have all been changed witb the purpose of deceiving the whole world. You’re right that they are liars and imposters. They think that if they bring about WW3 against themselves, that they will expedite their false Messiach’s return. Howhe highest elites know that we are in Rev 20, post millennial reign and in the time of loosing of satan. We are indeed awaiting the battle of Gog and Magog, which historically was on maps in the extreme northeast of Asia near Kamchatka.
Yahweh/Jehovah/Satan is either the Demiurge or his chief henchman.
Leaked Docs Reveal Bondi Beach ‘False Flag’ Was Mossad Operation To Kill First Amendment
Fact checked by The People’s Voice Community

tonight, we’re calling it what it is. The most transparent false flag in years — confirmed not by official statements, but by patterns, timing, and behavior we’ve seen before. Not since October 7th have the fingerprints been this obvious. Back then, we were the first to expose a narrative that later unraveled when IDF soldiers themselves admitted to a stand-down.
Now we’re watching the same narrative lockstep in Sydney. The same security “failures.” The same media choreography. And most importantly, the same warnings in advance — that sounded less like concern and more like threats.
Netanyahu told us what was coming — and then reality obediently followed the script. Just as it did when his so-called “warnings” about the World Trade Center turned out to be impossibly precise. Ask yourself, as you watching chance unfold — or watching a script play out?
For anyone who knows how to recognize patterns, the Bondi Beach attack carried the unmistakable fingerprints of a familiar playbook — the kind associated with engineered chaos and strategic silence. We’ve seen this before. After October 7, IDF soldiers themselves began to come forward, confirming what we reported from the outset: a stand-down order was issued, and an attack was allowed to unfold.
Bondi Beach follows the same disturbing script. Twenty minutes? At the most popular beach in Australia’s most populous city? Why were the police officers ordered to stand down?
The pattern recognition doesn’t stop there. Remember how key names linked to the Charlie Kirk assassination were googled in DC and Israel in the months before the false flag?
The same thing happened in Sydney, with Naveed Akram, one of the shooters names, being googled in Tel Aviv on December 13, a day before the shooting took place. prominent social media influencer Ostrovsky, who had lived in Israel for 13 years, said he had moved back to Australia just two weeks ago to “help the Jewish community” and fight ‘anti-Semitism’.
He was wounded so badly that he managed to take a selfie and post it to social media.
According to Grok, the image appears staged or fake. The blood has an unnaturally bright, glossy red hue that’s most consistent with corn syrup-based fake blood or paint used in movies and special effects makeup than real blood, which tends to darken and coagulate upon exposure to oxygen.
This is the best false flag since the covid jew-jabs 9/11 and the london 7 7 the moon landings and the holocaust
MGW,
I agree with all your post except for the return of the King and tribulation. He hasn’t arrived yet and we are not yet in tribulation.
We have not yet started tribulation, which will be preceded by “the beginning of sorrows” (Matthew 24:8) and followed by the 7 trumpets**.
This occurs before Yahushua’s return. Yahshua will return to defeat the Beast and the False Prophet, casting them into the lake of fire (Revelation 19:11–20). An angel will then bind Satan and cast him into the abyss for 1,000 years (Revelation 20:1–3). Yahushua then reigns on earth with His saints for 1,000 years. Satan is imprisoned and cannot deceive the nations during this time. Satan is then released for a short time (Revelation 20:7) and gathers Gog and Magog to rebel, but YHWH destroys the army with fire. Satan is then cast into the lake of fire.
All of this is yet to come. I believe we have entered the ‘Time of Sorrows’. There has to be hell on earth yet to wake the majority of braindead morons up as to what’s going on.
**
1. First Trumpet – Hail, fire, and blood destroy one-third of the earth’s trees and all green grass (Revelation 8:7).
2. Second Trumpet – A burning mountain (likely a massive meteor) is thrown into the sea, turning one-third of the sea to blood, killing one-third of sea life, and destroying one-third of ships (Revelation 8:8–9).
3. Third Trumpet – A star called Wormwood falls into freshwater sources, poisoning one-third of rivers and springs, causing many deaths (Revelation 8:10–11).
4. Fourth Trumpet – One-third of the sun, moon, and stars are darkened, reducing light and disrupting day-night cycles (Revelation 8:12).
5. Fifth Trumpet (First Woe) – A star opens the bottomless pit, releasing demonic locusts that torment unbelievers for five months, but do not kill them (Revelation 9:1–11).
6. Sixth Trumpet (Second Woe) – Four angels bound at the Euphrates are released, unleashing a demonic army of 200 million to kill one-third of mankind (Revelation 9:13–21).
7. Seventh Trumpet (Third Woe) – Announces the final judgment, the return of Christ, and the beginning of His eternal reign (Revelation 11:15–19).
