Far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich leads a delegation of Israeli ministers at the annual Israel Day parade, Sunday

Multiple far right Israeli ministers attended New York City’s Israel Day Parade on Sunday, including Israel’s genocidal finance minister Bezalel Smotrich.
Smotrich is ideologically not significantly different from a Nazi. Which means New York City just hosted a Nazi parade that was attended by thousands of people.

New York officials are acting shocked and appalled by Smotrich’s appearance at the march, but “I can’t believe there were Israeli officials at the Israel parade” is kind of a hard sell. This is just what supporting Israel looks like: standing shoulder to shoulder with genocidal extremists and making common cause with them. That’s what Israel is.

Americans are growing concerned about the latest Israeli military nightmare, which of course means it’s time for Axios to publish another article telling them the president has got it all under control.
The latest Axios narrative management op is titled “Trump fumes at Netanyahu in call on Lebanon,” claiming the president admonished the Israeli prime minister that he is “fucking crazy” over Israel’s escalation in Lebanon, saying “You’d be in prison if it weren’t for me. I’m saving your ass. Everybody hates you now. Everybody hates Israel because of this.”
As usual the article was authored by Israeli intelligence insider Barak Ravid, who has made an entire career out of falsely reporting that the US president is furious with Netanyahu and is moments away from twisting Israel’s arm to make peace.
Some Barak Ravid headlines from the Biden administration include the following:
Biden “running out” of patience with Bibi as Gaza war hits 100 days
Scoop: Biden in “frustrating” call told Bibi to solve Palestinian tax revenue issue
Biden’s ultimatum to Bibi: Change Gaza policy or we will
White House temperature is “very high” ahead of Biden-Bibi call
“We won’t support you”: Inside Biden’s ultimatum to Bibi
Israel and U.S. deeply divided in meeting on key Rafah operation issues
Biden and Bibi “red lines” for Rafah put them on a collision course
Biden-Bibi clash escalates as U.S. accused of undermining Israeli government
Biden and Netanyahu hold first call in a month amid public split
Biden breaks with Netanyahu but sticks with Israel
Biden on hot mic: Told Bibi we needed “come to Jesus” meeting on Gaza

Biden, in rare criticism of Bibi, says pause in Gaza fighting should have come sooner
Scoop: Blinken warns Israeli officials global pressure will grow longer war goes on
Israeli minister lambasted at White House about Gaza and war strategy
Scoop: Biden tells Bibi he’s not in it for a year of war in Gaza
Blinken unloads on Bibi: “You need a coherent plan” or face disaster in Gaza
Scoop: White House cancels meeting, scolds Netanyahu in protest over video

Needless to say, Biden continued shipping weapons to Israel throughout the Gaza holocaust until the moment he left office in January of last year. There was never any meaningful conflict between the White House and Tel Aviv then, and we may safely assume that there there is no meaningful conflict between the White House and Tel Aviv today. As Antiwar’s Dave DeCamp notes, the Israeli press are reporting that Netanyahu’s planned attack on Beirut has been drawn up in coordination with Washington.

A new UN report accuses Israel of rape and sexual abuse of Palestinian prisoners, yet another entry into the mountains upon mountains of evidence for this already well-established fact.
It’s crazy how the actual, serious hasbara narrative about all these reports is that there’s a giant global antisemitic conspiracy in which all humanitarian institutions are collaborating with mainstream news outlets in a sinister plot to make Israel look bad.

The Zionist PR operation StopAntisemitism has a multi-paragraph post up on Twitter right now complaining that a hospital receptionist wore a keffiyeh at work, and it made a Jewish woman feel upset.

That’s it. That’s the whole entire story. A Jewish person’s feelings felt upset about a piece of cloth. People are getting ripped to shreds by Israeli bombs in Lebanon and Gaza, but this is what we all need to focus on.
When people talk about “skyrocketing levels of antisemitic incidents”, it’s mostly just stuff like this.
❖
Australia’s antisemitism czar released a document which simultaneously asserts that “Antisemitism and antizionism are both expressions of hatred towards Jews” AND that “It is antisemitic to conflate the policies of the Israeli government with the views of Jewish Australians”.
These two sentences are contradictory and mutually exclusive. They cannot both be true. If it’s wrong to conflate all Jews with Israel, then it cannot be right to conflate a rejection of the pro-Israel political ideology with a hatred toward all Jews. It’s either one or the other. It can’t be both.
Just in case you wanted a little more insight into how absurd and incoherent this fake “antisemitism” panic is.

Violent clashes break out after sentencing in Henry Nowak murder case
Story by Claire Reid
Violence broke out in Southampton over police racism bungling and mishandling of the boys murder,
then being pelted with missiles during a protest over Henry Nowak’s murder.
The 18-year-old finance student was killed by Vickrum Digwa on his way home from a night out on 3 December 2025.
Digwa lied to officers at the scene and claimed to have been the victim of a racist attack.
Bodycam footage from the incident showed Nowak repeatedly telling officers he’d been stabbed, to which one replied: “Don’t think you have, mate.”
On Monday, 23-year-old Digwa was given a life sentence with a minimum of 21 years in prison for stabbing Nowak.Following the sentencing protesters took to the streets of Southampton last night (Tuesday 2 June), chanting: “Henry, Henry.” and wanted a police apology
However, the protests took a violent turn with demonstrators hurling bricks, bins, and chairs at officers.
The bottom line is people want the migrants to go home
In what context, do those scum bags have any connection to the NSDAP ?
We go from a Self preservation nationalist group who wanted nothing more than
the best for their own people.
to a gangster mob, who represent a foreign body, who hate humanity & Control the U.S. through fraudulent means.
Go get fucked.
This woman, like all the others, removes all comments that contradict her blog posts. So what does that tell you?
(((theyre))) a cancer
to be isolated then disinfected with a heebicide
“Smotrich is ideologically not significantly different from a Nazi.”
By “nazi” I assume this tart, Caitlin Johnstone, is alluding to the National Socialists of Germany in the 1930’s and 1940’s. Well now missy, have you ever met a “nazi”? Were you in Europe during the 1930’s and ’40’s?
IT NOT THEN YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.
Isn’t it amazing how the “good guys” always managed to win the wars and yet look at the state of Europe now? The victors of wars get to write the history books.
Israel says Hamas and Hezbollah and some others are terrorists but they are a resistance, similar to the French resistance and partisan groups which fought against Nazis. If they hadn’t done so the Nazis might have won the war and the Jews would be almost wiped out by now. Resistance is imperative, and now it’s the resistance to their brand of Nazism that’s the imperative.
If the lessons Israel took from WWII are what the perpetrators did and they do that to another victim, they became Nazis. No lies or wordplay can disguise they engineered today’s holocaust.
LOL..
Noo Yoyks…IS-RA-EL day parade..
says it all really.. because of course it’s all perfectly sensible, I remember as a wee lad in the shires…botswana day and macedonia day, how all the old folk would get together and celebrate khazakstan and moldovia day…
and of course the unmissable new guinea day and the solomons island carnival…
there was nothing more brit-ish..
I wonder if Caitlin Johnstone heard this reported on ABC radio about ten days ago? I did it was reported only twice on the same day, not a word about it since.
I accessed audio from archive the following day and generated an Audacity MP3 recording of it. Below is a transcription of the recording, with was broadcast in a five minute on the hour, every hour news update. I finally got around to completing transcript yesterday.

The Federal budget includes over 600 million dollars to disrupt politically and ideologically motivated violence in Australia and fund support services for the Jewish community in the wake of the Bondi Beach terrorist attack.
Jessica Kidd reports…
“The Federal government says it’ll tackle hate speech, violent extremism and terrorism with more than 600 million dollars in initiatives following the shooting attack at a Jewish event at Bondi Beach in December where 15 people were killed.
It includes 360 million dollars for stronger hate crime and firearm laws and a national gun buy-back scheme. Almost 47 million dollars for enhanced security, mental health services and support for the Jewish community and funding to establish the Royal Commission into antisemitism and social cohesion, and to respond to the recommendations of the special envoy on antisemitism.

Perhaps we should distinguish between “Nazi” and “National socialist”
A “socialism” understood as looking kindly after one’s population combined with a healthy nationalism that priorizes the important things among them the national progress and wellbeing first, both combined, is an interesting and valid idea.
Of course, Nazi tyrants and murderers are another thing altogether .
Do not denigrate National Socialism with the ridiculous Jewish made up word of “Nazi”. This “parade” was the usual Satanic show-time of pervs, murderers, liars, that’s all.
Why is TTS pushing this self confessed Commie sh*trag (Johnstone) on us? Commies hate the white race & want it to be mongrelized out of existence, & always attempt to fraudulently collate Nazism with Zionism. Is TTS a crypto-commie operation?
“We’re right behind you BiBi!”
Bwittin
Ju parade, ‘pride’ parade- what’s the difference? Both are the purveyors of filth, lies, ugliness & murder. Both hate the white man & want white women to mate with nonwhites or with each other.
Hurray for us ignorant white, old boomers who established total rejection of Godly sanity in the 1960s through today & passed the madness onto our middle aged offspring, grandchildren & great grandchildren. We do not deserve to witness any resolution to our extinction.
Americans deserve everything that is heading their way because we have allowed Jews to snowball our brains, divide us endlessly along dozens of different lines, steal trillions of dollars from our Treasury, and Holohoax us to death, and now that the American military is joining forces with the IDF, what the FUCK do you think that means ? Well, I’ll tell you in one phrase . . . “The way of Palestine will be the way of the world,” and by God I hope you are ALL ready to die.
had we listened to Adolf Hitler we would not be in this awful state now
Amalek, here is a link from the Oz budget that was published around a month ago.

Socialism and Nationasocialism
Many people point (often rightfully) to socialism as a recipe for national failure, especially the varieties of “socialism” that actually are plain communism.
So they get scared at the mere mention of nationalsocialism.
(Ugh! Socialism!…)
The derogatory term “Nazi” also turns many people away, perhaps it was even coined for that purpose.
But as the name implies, nationalsocialism is a socialism in the interest of the nation and for the purpose of its progress.
In nationalsocialism the socialism part acts in synergy with the national interests.
The well-being of the people actually is the engine of the nation’s productivity and progress, and this in all orders of people’s daily lives. Even popular culture, something perhaps not so important, gets a boost.
As an example of said things, we can cite the “Kraft durch Freude” (Power by happiness) social program which contributed to “turbocharge” productivity.
Before outbreak of war, German workers even got touristical Cruises in sea-liners, a thing which British authorities took great care in hiding from their own population.
Such dangerous “bad examples” able to “conquer the world” must not be permitted to “corrupt” the flock…
National socialism had the potential to “conquer the world” by example.
That’s one of the reasons it has to be destroyed.
That was the true world conquest, the one they feared so much.
