Your complete guide to Trump's Jewish advisers and pro-Israel cabinet
https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2024/11/your-complete-guide-to-trumps-jewish-advisers-and-pro-israel-cabinet/

President-elect Donald Trump began shaping his cabinet this week, rolling out nominations that feature people deeply connected to the Jewish and pro-Israel communities, including Mike Huckabee, Steve Witkoff, and Marco Rubio.

His first national security picks are die-hard Israel supporters some of whom have denied the existence of the Palestinian people and back the annexation of the occupied West Bank. These loyalists are set to advance his "America First" and hardline populist agenda in a second term, could signal some shifts in longstanding U.S. policy, especially regarding a possible conflict with Iran and resolving conflicts in the Middle East.

Why Trump picked Rubio: Rubio, vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee and a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has vast national security experience and strong connections to secure a swift Senate confirmation.

What he's said on Israel: Rubio, 53, has echoed Trump's "peace through strength" doctrine and call to allow Israel to do what's needed to defeat Hamas. In a viral video earlier this year, Rubio said he expected Israel "to destroy every element of Hamas." Rubio likened the Israeli ground operation in Rafah, which was opposed by the Biden administration, to the Allies' pursuit of Adolf Hitler during the Holocaust.

What he's said on Iran: Rubio has advocated for reinstating tough economic sanctions on Iran to weaken its terror networks and prevent it from acquiring nuclear weapons.

Relationship with Jews: Norman Braman, an auto dealership magnate and past president of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation, was Rubio's political patron. Rubio surprised pro-Israel backers with his April vote against emergency funding to Israel because it lacked border enforcement measures. Rubio excused Trump after he repeatedly accused American Jews of disloyalty to Israel and suggested they must hate their religion if they vote for Democrats. And he also angered Orthodox leaders in 2022 for introducing a bill that would make daylight saving time permanent across the nation, which would have made it more difficult for people to attend morning prayers and get to work on time.

Pete Hegseth, secretary of defense

What he's said on Israel: Hegseth, 44, a Fox News host, provided favorable coverage of Israel on the network and said that his time in the U.S. Army turned him into a supporter of the Jewish state. He interviewed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in March and said, "Israel needs our support." He also ran a three-part series on Fox Nation, "Battle in the Holy Land: Israel at War," that focused on the war in Gaza and the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict. "There's no doubt this is a fight that Israel needs to finish," Hegseth said, echoing Trump's call for Israel to finish the job and eliminate Hamas.

A hardliner on Iran: Hegseth called for U.S. military action against Iran back in 2020. "I don't want boots on the ground, I don't want occupation, I don't want endless war," he said on Fox News. "But Iran has been in endless war with us for 40 years. Either we put up and shut up now and stop it, or we kind of wait, go back to the table, and let them dither while they attempt to continue to develop the capabilities to do precisely what they said they want to do."

Mike Waltz, national security adviser

Why it matters: The selection of Rep. Mike Waltz of Florida, a former Green Beret with a staunchly pro-Israel record, to lead the National Security Council signals Trump's intent to maintain his strong support for Israel in a second term and take a tougher approach toward Iran.

What he's said on Israel: Waltz, 53, consistently criticized the Biden administration's foreign policy, describing it as one of "concession and chaos." He strongly supports Israel's war in Gaza and praised Israel's targeting of Hezbollah operatives and elimination of the terror group's commanding leadership. Even before the war in Gaza, Waltz said the U.S. should allow Israel to strike Iran's nuclear program. Last month, Waltz recommended that Israel strike Kharg Island, a crucial hub for Iran's oil exports, and its nuclear facilities at Natanz.

One of his key tasks: Waltz, a staunch advocate for expanding the Abraham Accords, will be playing a central role in talks with Saudi Arabia to advance Trump's goal of achieving regional peace and resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Elise Stefanik, U.S. ambassador to the U.N.

What it means for Israel: Stefanik, 40, brings her national security experience and a combative, unapologetic style to the United Nations at a critical juncture for Israel and the Middle East. With tensions expected to rise around Iran's nuclear ambitions and increasing global pressure on resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Stefanik could position herself as a formidable ally for Israel. Stefanik recently called to cut off aid for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine (UNRWA), the main supplier of humanitarian assistance to Palestinians in Gaza.

Her popularity among conservative Jews: Stefanik gained popularity in the Jewish and pro-Israel community after challenging the presidents of Harvard, MIT, and the University of Pennsylvania on whether calls for the genocide of Jews violate their campus codes of conduct.

Mike Huckabee, U.S. ambassador to Israel

Why he got the job: Huckabee, 69, enjoys the trust of both Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Huckabee, a Baptist minister, has been traveling to Israel since 1973 and says he's taken more than 100 trips there since. A MAGA loyalist, Huckabee is a seasoned advocate for Israeli interests. His influence could bolster Netanyahu's outreach to U.S. evangelicals, a community Netanyahu has increasingly prioritized over American Jews in recent years.

What he's said on Israel: Last year, he led a mission of evangelical leaders to Israel following the Oct. 7 attacks. "I came here to say loud and clear that evangelicals stand with Israel," Huckabee said. In 2008, Huckabee said, "There's really no such thing as a Palestinian." During the 2016 Republican presidential primary, Huckabee said he saw the occupied West Bank as an "integral part" of Israel. In 2017, he said, "There is no such thing as a West Bank. It's Judea and Samaria. There's no such thing as a settlement."

A supporter of annexation: In a radio interview following the announcement of his new role, Huckabee said there's a chance that Israel will be given the green light to annex the occupied West Bank in a second Trump term.

Unconventional pick: The position, traditionally a political appointment, is usually given to Jewish donors, trusted Jewish officials or career diplomats. Huckabee would be the first non-Jewish ambassador since 2011 and the first non-Jewish appointee without diplomatic experience in more than four decades.

Steven Witkoff, special envoy to the Middle East

Why he was picked: Witkoff, 67, has no diplomatic experience. However, he has a longstanding trusted relationship with Trump, and with his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, who was instrumental during the first Trump administration in crafting the Trump peace plan and brokering the Abraham Accords. Like Kushner, Witkoff brings a real estate negotiating approach that Trump values. Witkoff has served as the Trump campaign's backchannel to the Jewish business community, particularly after President Joe Biden halted the shipment of 2,000-pound weapons to Israel.

Relationship with Israel: Witkoff attended Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address to Congress in July, and found it moving, especially when Netanyahu talked about the hostages in Gaza — some of whom were at the Capitol that day. "It felt spiritual," Witkoff said on the Fox Business channel the next day, "and yet, that's not the reaction you sense that you were getting from many of those Democrats."

John Ratcliffe, CIA director

What it means for Israel: Ratcliffe, 59, previously a member of Congress from Texas and former director of national intelligence, accused the Biden administration of diverting critical U.S. intelligence assets from monitoring terrorist groups like Hamas. During the presidential campaign, he criticized Vice President Kamala Harris for promoting "a false narrative" that portrayed Israel as targeting innocent Palestinians in Gaza. Ratcliffe also supported the 2017 travel ban that restricted immigration from seven predominantly Muslim countries.

What he's said on Iran: In an interview with Fox News this year, Ratcliffe praised Israeli strikes on Iran, describing them as an example of the 'Trump doctrine' of maximum pressure. He suggested that the U.S. should assist Israel in such military actions.

Stephen Miller, deputy chief of staff and homeland security adviser

Jewish with strong nationalist views: Miller, 39, declared last month at Trump's Madison Square Garden rally, "America is for Americans and Americans only." He was influential in crafting tough immigration policies during Trump's first term and the architect behind the policy of separating young children from their undocumented parents. Miller led the implementation of the so-called Muslim travel ban in 2017 and reportedly also hoped to eliminate all refugee admissions to the U.S., dismantling a policy put in place in the wake of the Holocaust.

Condemned by family and classmates: Miller, now tapped for a powerful role within the administration, has been condemned by his Jewish family, descendants of immigrants who fled pogroms, and by his past classmates. His uncle, Dr. David Glosser, a retired neuropsychologist, called him an "immigration hypocrite." His former rabbi said Trump and Miller's statements are "echoes of ominous promises that Jews have heard throughout history."

Lee Zeldin, EPA administrator

A Jewish MAGA loyalist: Zeldin, 44, has earned Trump's trust since voting as a congressman against certifying the 2020 election results. During the campaign, Zeldin was a vocal Trump surrogate and critic of anti-Israel sentiment in the Democratic Party. He excused Trump's remarks saying Jews would be to blame if the former president lost the election, and he accused Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro of "trying to un-Jewish himself" to become Kamala Harris' vice presidential pick.

His Jewish background: Zeldin, who is married to a Mormon, leaned into his Jewish background to rally Orthodox voters during his 2022 New York gubernatorial campaign. His great-grandfather Moshe Efraim "Morris" Zeldin, whom Zeldin is named after, was an Orthodox rabbi in Brooklyn and a pioneer in the Zionist movement. Growing up in Suffolk County on Long Island, Zeldin spent considerable time with his grandfather Bernard Zeldin, who founded the Farmingdale Jewish Center. His mother, Merrill Schwartz, was a fourth-grade teacher at a yeshiva in Brooklyn.

Kristi Noem, homeland security

What it means for Jews: The department of homeland security provides resources and guidance to houses of worship to protect themselves under the Nonprofit Security Grant Program. Close collaboration between the agency and Jewish community leaders will be vital to address growing threats and security concerns. Earlier this year, Noem, 52, serving as governor of South Dakota, signed into law a bill that mandates the use of the controversial International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition of antisemitism when investigating allegations of discrimination.

Best known for: Noem gained national attention earlier this year after a revelation in her memoir sparked backlash that derailed her bid to be chosen as Trump's vice presidential pick. She disclosed that she had shot her hunting dog, an action that stirred controversy, as societal views against cruelty to animals stretch back to the time of the Talmud.

Matt Gaetz, attorney general

Um, what? Trump raised eyebrows when he announced the nomination of Gaetz, 42, as head of the justice department.

What he's done and said: Earlier this year, Gaetz faced backlash for voting against a bipartisan bill aimed at addressing rising antisemitism in colleges and universities by invoking an antisemitic trope that Jews killed Jesus. Gaetz called the Anti-Defamation League "racist" in 2021 after it urged Fox News to fire host Tucker Carlson for promoting the antisemitic Great Replacement Theory. In 2019, Gaetz suggested that George Soros, the Hungarian-born Jewish billionaire and frequent target of antisemitic tropes, was behind an alleged migrant caravan.

Association with white nationalists: In his first term in the House, Gaetz defended giving a ticket for the State of the Union to Chuck Johnson, a right-wing troll who once denied the Holocaust. He also hired a Trump White House speechwriter who was fired after it was reported he appeared at a conference featuring a white nationalist.

Other appointments
Vivek Ramaswamy, 39, a biotech entrepreneur who has never served in public office, was appointed to an outside government entity, called the Department of Government Efficiency, along with Tesla CEO Elon Musk. Ramaswamy has publicly questioned the necessity of continuing U.S. military aid to Israel.

► Rick Grenell, former ambassador to Germany who also served as acting director of national intelligence towards the end of Trump's first term, was on the shortlist for secretary of state. If Rubio is nominated, Grenell may still secure a significant role in the cabinet. He was a key figure in advancing sanctions against Iran and the normalization of relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates. Grenell was also instrumental in Trump's outreach to Arab American and Muslim voters in Michigan during the presidential campaign.

► Boris Epshteyn, a Jewish senior adviser to Trump since 2016. He also served as counsel during the hush money trial in New York, and will likely stay in Trump's inner circle, perhaps as a general adviser with a broad portfolio.

► Alina Habba, Trump's trial attorney who in her RNC speech touted her marriage to Jewish entrepreneur Gregg Reuben, is on the shortlist to serve as White House press secretary.

► Tulsi Gabbard, an anti-war former Democratic congresswoman who switched to the Republican Party, is reportedly being considered for director of national intelligence, raising concerns within the pro-Israel community.

Candidates for treasury secretary
► Scott Bessen, a hedge fund manager and a top fundraiser for Trump, is the leading candidate for treasury. The department oversees economic and trade sanctions on Iran and other bad actors. Bessen is described as a protege of Jewish billionaire George Soros, serving for two decades as management investing chief at the Soros Fund Management. Trump invoked the Soros-as-puppeteer antisemitic conspiracy in his fundraising emails last year.

► Howard Lutnick, CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald and co-chair of Trump's transition team is also in the mix for the job.

Outside Jewish advisers and people with access:
► Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law and former Middle East adviser, who said earlier this year he would not return to the White House, is involved behind the scenes and could be a key player in a potential normalization deal between Saudi Arabia and Israel.

► Massad Boulos, the Lebanese American father-in-law of Tiffany Trump who led outreach to Arab-American communities during the election, is likely to be the point person for Lebanon and have Trump's ear on the Middle East.

► David Friedman, Trump's first ambassador to Israel, is interested in returning to a national security position to influence Middle East policy and advance a pro-settlement agenda.

► David Sacks, a tech entrepreneur who bundled millions for Trump. He is also a longtime friend of Musk.

► John Paulson, a financier and an ardent supporter of Trump. He removed himself from consideration for treasury due to financial obligations.

► Steve Schwarzman, Blackstone CEO, will be a powerful voice on antitrust rules, trade policy and the tax code. He is offering recommendations for administration roles.

► Wayne Berman, head of global government affairs for Blackstone and a Republican Jewish Coalition board member. Some suggested Berman as deputy secretary of treasury.

► Miriam Adelson, the widow of casino magnate and GOP megadonor Sheldon Adelson, who spent more than $100 million for Trump and made several joint appearances with him.

► Elan Carr, CEO of the Israeli American Council who served as the antisemitism envoy in Trump's first term.

► Jeff Miller, head of Miller Strategies and one of Trump's top fundraisers.

► Arthur Schwartz, a behind-the-scenes operator and Twitter troll who has been Donald Trump Jr.'s political adviser for years and is close to Vice President-elect JD Vance.

► Bill Ackman, a hedge fund billionaire who has been highly critical of the pro-Palestinian protest movement at Harvard and the university's response to antisemitism. He has also been outspoken against diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives.

► Ike Perlmutter, the former Marvel mogul and a Mar-a-Lago member who influenced policy at the department of veterans affairs in Trump's first term.

► Steve Wynn, the Vegas casino mogul and longtime Trump friend who warned him about being off message during the campaign.

► Paul Packer, who chaired the commission of the preservation of America's heritage abroad in Trump's first term, was co-chair of the Trump campaign's Jewish Leadership Coalition, a fundraising group.

FBI raids home of American journalist Alison Weir over her pro-Palestine work
https://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2024/11/19/737517/FBI-raid-American-journalist-interview-Presstv

The FBI has raided the house of an American journalist over her pro-Palestine work amid the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza, a move seen as part of a broader pattern of opposing voices that shed light on the Gaza genocide and US backing of Israel.

Alison Weir, an American journalist researching the Palestinian-Israeli issue for more than 20 years, in a post on X on Monday said that recently FBI agents have been making unexpected visits to her house, asking about a person unfamiliar to her.

Weir revealed that the FBI's interest was sparked by her past interviews with Iran's English-language TV channel Press TV, which has interviewed her on various occasions over the years.

"During my 20+ years writing and speaking about Palestine, I have taken as many opportunities as humanly possible to get the facts out via any traditional and alternative, domestic and international media outlets available. I don't attempt to vet media outlets and try to reach as many audiences in the US and around the world as I can with the facts about Palestine," she wrote.

https://x.com/alisonweir/status/1858579307406426482?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1858579307406426482%7Ctwgr%5Ec423825aea3795f465e8d92ab336dcf9937fca65%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.presstv.ir%2FDetail%2F2024%2F11%2F19%2F737517%2FFBI-raid-American-journalist-interview-Presstv

The American activist further noted that it has come to light that other activists with a shared dedication to advocating for a just peace in Palestine and even Jewish activists have also been subject to similar visits by the FBI.

"I understand the agency has been weaponized in the past to try to silence groups and people that some members of government oppose," Weir added.

The executive director of the think tank If Americans Knew, which provides information on the historical war on Palestine, hinted at a potential agenda to stifle dissent and silence voices critical of the US policies supporting Israel by linking them to Iran.

"It would appear someone is now trying to set the stage to silence dissent on Israel-Palestine in the United States by trumping up connections with Iran," she said.

[See imbedded video here:  Moment of Truth about Palestine  https://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2024/04/27/724448/Interview-with-Alison-Weir]

The FBI's investigation into individuals linked to Press TV has sparked alarm among advocates for Palestinian rights, highlighting a growing debate over the limits of dissent and the implications of US government oversight on those exercising their free speech rights.

As the narrative unfolds, questions arise about the implications of such investigations on freedom of expression and activism in the United States.

In September, the United States Department of the Treasury added Press TV to the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC)'s Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List.

The US government has enacted stringent sanctions against the Tehran-based news channel, which has been on air since 2007. Operating under the slogan "The Voice of the Voiceless," Press TV aims to highlight significant regional and global issues that are often overlooked or misrepresented by mainstream media.

Observers say the US government's move to pull the plug on Press TV is part of Washington's attempts to silence Iranian media because they "debunk US lies."

The Real Israel
https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/the-real-israel

One of the very few good things coming out of the relentless nightmare happening in Gaza is that at long last the western world is getting a clear look at Israel. The real Israel.

Not the Israel they teach you about in school. Not "the only democracy in the middle east," where Jews were given safe haven after their victimization at the hands of the Nazis and managed to create a thriving society despite existing in a sea of savage enemies bent on their destruction.

Not that Israel. The real one. Arguably the most racist society on earth, whose existence has depended on nonstop violence, theft, tyranny and abuse since its very inception.

https://x.com/wyattreed13/status/1858900601272230136

The real Israel, whose government is deliberately and methodically starving Palestinian civilians to death by the tens of thousands just for being the wrong ethnicity.

The real Israel, whose snipers routinely murders Palestinian children by shooting them in the head.

The real Israel, whose military is so sadistic that it created an AI system to specifically target suspected Hamas fighters when they are at home with their families, and called the AI "Where's Daddy?" because it would be killing fathers when they are at home with their children.

The real Israel, whose soldiers cannot stop posting footage of themselves mockingly dressed in the undergarments of dead and displaced Palestinian women and playing with the toys of dead and displaced Palestinian children.

The real Israel, where Palestinian doctors are raped and tortured to death.

https://x.com/FranceskAlbs/status/1858304872963010840

The real Israel, where the majority of men do not believe acquaintance rape or spousal rape are real crimes, and where the majority do not believe the soldiers accused of raping and torturing a Palestinian prisoner to the point of severe injury should face criminal charges.

The real Israel, who routinely bombs buildings full of civilians and then uses sniper drones to pick off the survivors, including children.

The real Israel, whose drones have been heard playing the sounds of crying babies and screaming women in order to lure out civilians so they can be killed.

The real Israel, who has damaged or destroyed 94 percent of the healthcare facilities in Gaza with hundreds of targeted attacks.

The real Israel, whose military forces target medical staff so methodically that doctors and nurses in Gaza reportedly change out of their uniforms when they leave the hospital in order to avoid assassination.

The real Israel, who hates truth so much that it has been killing historic numbers of journalists in Gaza while preventing foreign journalists from entering the enclave.

https://x.com/AsaWinstanley/status/1859170812391035080

The real Israel, who has been knowingly attacking the locations of humanitarian aid workers.

The real Israel, whose citizens are so warped and twisted that they attend boat tours to cheerfully witness the devastation in the Gaza Strip.

The real Israel, whose citizens set up blockades to prevent aid trucks from getting to starving civilians in Gaza while they enjoy barbecues and set up bouncy castles and cotton candy machines for their children.

The real Israel, whose TikTok influencers started a viral trend mocking the suffering of civilians in Gaza.

The real Israel, whose citizens will travel to another country and tear down Palestinian flags and sing about how there are no children left in Gaza and then cry victim when people fight back.

This is the real Israel, in all its glory. And it is good that it is being seen.

The sooner everyone stops supporting this freakish, murderous society and begins insisting that normal human values win out over the demented forces which keep it going, the sooner there can be peace in the region. And the better off our entire species will be.

the not-so-United-States are Pathetic, like they have Brain Cancer or something.

I belong to a book reading group, "Silent Book Club."

It's mostly women.

They mostly read Romantic Fantasies, AKA soft porn.

I estimate that 40% of them are taking SSRI's and similar meds.

They have zero interest in anything factual.

I find that, really strange.

Just hours before Kennedy was murdered in cold blood, this bizarre script was read in the two and a half minutes before Kennedy took the stage for a breakfast talk in Fort Worth.

Just think of how strange this is.

Who would write such a script? Who would order it to be read before a presidential appearance?

Just a few hours after this live newscast, Kennedy was assassinated by a "lone nut" just like the one described in the local Texas news feed.

Project Esther: The Zionist Plan to Silence Pro-Palestine Activism
https://muslimskeptic.com/2024/11/14/project-esther/

Zionist Jewish influential figures within the US have finally decided to emerge from the shadows and declare their plans in the open in order to organize their Islamophobic and anti-Palestine efforts more aggressively than ever before. They laid out these plans in a report titled "Project Esther: A National Strategy to Combat Antisemitism."

Here is the summary:

America's virulently anti-Israel, anti-Zionist, and anti-American "pro-Palestinian movement" is part of a global Hamas Support Network (HSN) that is trying to compel the U.S. government to abandon its long-standing support for Israel. Supported by activists and funders dedicated to the destruction of capitalism and democracy, the HSN benefits from the support and training of America's overseas enemies and seeks to achieve its goals by taking advantage of our open society, corrupting our education system, leveraging the American media, coopting the federal government, and relying on the American Jewish community's complacency. The National Task Force to Combat Antisemitism intends to enlist all willing and able partners in a coordinated effort to combat the scourge of antisemitism in the United States.

The year-long genocidal war on Gaza has revealed the utter hypocrisy and lack of self-awareness that is now commonly associated with Israeli Zionist propaganda, and this case is no different. In fact, before we even dive into the actual report itself, this entire summary can be reframed to show the exact methods that are currently being used by the Zionist network in the US to influence the American nation and population:

America's virulently pro-Israel, pro-Zionist, and anti-Islam "anti-Palestinian movement" is part of a global Zionist Support Network (ZSN). Supported by activists and funders dedicated to the drainage of the U.S. economy and its population's hard-earned tax dollars, the ZSN benefits from the support and training of overseas terrorist organizations like the IDF, and seeks to achieve its goals by taking advantage of our open society, corrupting our education system, leveraging the American media, coopting the federal government, and relying on the Muslim community's complacency. The National Task Force to Combat Zionism intends to enlist all willing and able partners in a coordinated effort to combat the scourge of Zionism in the United States.

In their "vision statement," they state that:

Our hope is that this effort will represent an opportunity for public–private partnership when a willing Administration occupies the White House.

Goal. Ensure that U.S.-based antisemitic movements are incapable of threatening U.S. citizens with violence.

Objective. Dismantle the pro-Hamas support network's infrastructure across America.

By "public-private partnership" they mean "government-private partnership," as in a corporatocracy, which just so happens to be the current political structure in the USA, one that Zionists are already making as much use of as they possibly can in order to influence the country. This report is simply an attempt by the "Zionist Support Network" to openly bolster those efforts even more in the wake of their failing propaganda machine and think tanks due to the continuously rising tide of awareness within the public consciousness regarding the Nazi-like nature of Israel's genocidal regime and how they secretly coerce American politicians and government officials into doing their bidding. It's also funny how, even when trying to paint themselves as the good guys, Zionists always end up finding some way to utilize the word "occupy."

It is also worth mentioning what exactly they mean by their goal of preventing antisemitism-based "violence." What this actually means is the abolishment of any and all criticism against the Israeli genocidal regime—criticism that THEY CLAIM will lead to violence against Jews. It is the exact same tactic used by Madkhalis who claim that criticizing the Arab rulers will lead to violent rebellion against them and, thus, it is fard upon Muslims to keep their mouths shut altogether. And unsurprisingly, the reason that these two strategies of censorship sound identical is because they both originate from the very same Israeli Zionist source. Notice how both also frequently reference a past atrocity to support their narrative, i.e., the Holocaust to censor criticism of Israel and the Arab Spring to censor criticism of certain Arab rulers.

And while we're on the topic of ideology-based violence, it is the Zionist ideology that is guilty of radicalizing people in America, turning them into violent extremists, such as in the case of 6-year-old American Palestinian Wadea Al-Fayoume, who was murdered by an extremist that had been brainwashed by the hateful Islamophobic "Zionist Support Network."

One of the methods they've mentioned as a way to achieve their goals of censoring free speech is the following:

Erode support for antisemitism. Exploit fissures within and among antisemites and affiliated organizations and their target audiences.

The Zionist entity understands well the wisdom behind the saying, "united we stand, divided we fall." This is why it prevents pro-Palestinian groups from uniting on the common goal of stopping the Nazi Israeli regime. Hence the reason we see the Zionist-orchestrated sectarian divides between Muslims, the use of infiltrative groups like the Madkhalis, and online bot armies to fuel such divides. Remember, their goal is to prevent Muslims from joining together under a single unified banner against the US-Israel Empire.

At the same time, if Project Esther succeeds, it could reinforce a "blood libel" narrative, lending credence to an HSN "blame the Jews" mantra and expanded antisemitism. It is therefore incumbent upon us to integrate measures to mitigate the negative consequences that could result from success.

It might seem as though they're saying their plans will fuel antisemitism even further, but the actual veiled implication here is that when pro-Palestinian movements become stronger in response to Zionist efforts and make this pervasive project successful, all of the students, academics, journalists, public figures, and ordinary individuals behind the resistance against Zionism should just be smeared and demonized using these labels, in order to discredit them. For instance, an innocent harmless student holding a "Save Gaza" sign would be characterized by these Zionists as someone who is bloodthirstily calling for the extermination of all Jews.

The Silent Majority is too often irrelevant between elections. It must break its silence and speak. In a democracy, the Silent Majority must be heard to have an effect lest a louder, more vocal minority unjustly control the narrative and generate a distorted perception of political legitimacy.

In a democracy, the majority is deemed to be right, and it is undoubtedly clear that the majority of Americans are pro-Palestine and anti-Israel. Then there are the Muslims, who form a decent chunk of the American population and are especially anti-apartheid and anti-Zionism. This is the real "silent majority." Imagine the damage that can be dealt to the Israeli death-cult if just the Muslim leaders alone in America, including all the "Compassionate" and modernist imams, started speaking out explicitly against Zionist ideology and its Talmudic origins, rather than merely addressing a small portion of the issue at hand. But because they have failed to do this, we can see how the louder and more vocal Zionist minority has "unjustly controlled the narrative and generated a distorted perception of political legitimacy."

...by the promotion of a view that reduces all human interaction to a heroic struggle between the oppressed and their oppressors. The victim status of the oppressed, in this view, grants them license to pursue any course of action. Jews, Israelis, and all proud Americans in this case have been cast in the role of the implacable oppressors and the Palestinians, Arab or Muslim, in the role of their victims.

This is perhaps the most bizarre Zionist take outlined within this report, i.e., the idea that oppression can be a good thing. What?!

Merriam Webster defines oppression as follows:

unjust or cruel exercise of authority or power

The definition of the word is plain and simple, and it is extremely easy to grasp. Authority and power aren't inherently bad or evil. In fact, they can be very good things when applied the right way, e.g., the authority of a husband over his wife, the authority of parents over their children, the authority of a leader over his people, the authority of a government over its nation, etc. However, when it is misapplied or used in a corrupt, cruel, unjust, and excessive manner, that is when it can be characterized as "oppression." This oppression is always evil and, as such, criticizing it is always justified.

In fact, the classic example of David versus Goliath exists within the Judaic corpus itself, so how is it that these Zionists can be so hypocritical in stating that "good oppression" exists? In fact, the struggle between good and evil, between the oppressed and their oppressors; or as Zionists themselves like to put it, light and darkness, is a timeless struggle that has always been an integral part of human morality, and it is this fundamental morality that has existed since the beginning of mankind which the Zionist Support Network is now trying to overturn and pervert with their deception.

The anti-Israel and anti-Zionist Jew-haters attempting to lay siege to our education system, political processes, and government have not simply been influenced by this way of thinking—they have enthusiastically adopted it. This makes them a threat not just to American Jewry, but to all Americans.

"Lay siege to our education system..."

Who exactly does "our" refer to here? Because it sure isn't the majority of Americans, Muslims or otherwise, who are clearly pro-Palestine and anti-Israel. Rather, by this word "our," the Zionists who drafted this report are referring to the vocal Nazi minority that is pro-genocide, i.e., Judeo-Zionists—an entire group that has been radicalized and brainwashed by genocidal Israeli rhetoric, regardless of their religion, though the majority is made up of Jewish Israeli and Christian conservative Zionists. Basically, the Zionist Support Network.

By "our," they are thus referring to the Zionist Support Network, and when they say "our education system, political processes, and government," they are inadvertently admitting that the Zionist Support Network has infiltrated these systems deeply.

Hamas's October 7, 2023, terrorist attack on Israel laid bare this existing and underlying antisemitism around the world, including in the United States. The forces that cynically fanned this antisemitism exposed by October 7 pounced on Hamas's pogrom, intending to use it as a George Floyd–style event to spring onto center stage and grab a giant microphone. The attack confirmed two things.

As usual, the Zionist Support Network is continually pushing the idea that history began on October 7, 2023 and that there is no 75-year history of genocide which precedes it (but at the same time, there is somehow also a Jewish claim to Palestinian land that goes back thousands of years). What is interesting to note is that they accuse pro-Palestinians of using the incident as a "George Floyd-style event" while forgetting that they themselves have been guilt-tripping corporations into supporting Zionists using the George Floyd incident:

"We have arguably the most vibrant commercial sector on the planet. That's why it's so troubling that in a moment where the issues are clear, the responses are so muddled," Greenblatt told CNN in an interview on Wednesday.

The leader of the ADL suggested the same companies that "leapt at the opportunity to speak out" following the death of George Floyd and the anti-Asian hate crimes are now reluctant to do so.

"In a world in which they are butchering babies, and they are raping women and talking about destroying the Zionist entity, for some reason most CEOs are 'sitting it out.' Most CEOs think it's too political," Greenblatt said.

By the way, this CNN report was released on October 11, 2023, just days after the retaliation on October 7. The hypocrisy is unreal and plain for all to see—speaking of which, the Project Esther Report goes on to make yet another hypocritical point.

Had the intent of these critics been otherwise—had their goal truly been to change Israeli policies they found disagreeable—the so-called pro-Palestinian movement would not have organized so quickly across the world, including inside the United States, and immediately degenerated into the commission of blatant acts of antisemitism specifically targeting Jews.

Unfortunately, those who are pro-Palestine are nowhere near as "organized" as the Zionist Support Network, with the former being the majority that was simply sharing the raw truth coming out of Gaza and debunking Israeli lies; and the latter being the vocal minority that rapidly organized like a virus in the wake of October 7 to disseminate deceptive propaganda such as mass rape, decapitated burnt babies, genital mutilation, etc., against the Palestinian resistance. The October 7 incident and subsequent propaganda by the Zionist Support Network helped expose the deep level of infiltration that this virus-like entity has had on mainstream news organizations, politicians, government offices, social media, and corporations. After all, that is how this vocal minority was able to compete against all of the footage coming out of Gaza and the resulting pro-Palestinian protests and activism.

The past year has been a poor failed attempt at damage control by the Zionist Support Network. Like a cornered animal, they are now in desperation mode, and it has forced their hand into bringing this existing control over everything out into the open so that they can exert their influence and power in a more flexible manner. The shadows are just no longer an effective place for the Zionist Support Network to operate from, particularly thanks to the past year of pro-Palestinian activism and the clear-cut nature of Israeli deception. They now need new and more aggressive strategies to crack down on those who are vocally anti-genocide.

Although the HSN and the individual HSOs that comprise it—such as National Students for Justice in Palestine (NSJP or SJP), alternatively known as the Palestine Solidarity Committee (PSC); American Muslims for Palestine (AMP); Jewish Voices for Peace (JVP); and Samidoun, along with financial supporters such as the Westchester People's Action Coalition Foundation (WESPAC); Alliance for Global Justice; Tides Foundation; and Rockefeller Brothers Fund, to name a few—have risen to the fore of the American public's view since Hamas initiated its war against Israel and Jews. The network has been active for years, infiltrating and entrenching itself in key institutions across the United States.

This is akin to a virus that has completely infiltrated a body complaining about how its host is now mounting an immune response in order to cleanse the virus from within the body. In the same way, the pro-genocidal Zionist Support Network is constantly complaining about anti-genocidal voices rising against it.

One of the main strategies of the Zionist Support Network is to denote certain terms as inherently evil and then smear its opponents using those labels. In this way, they require no evidence or logic to demonize their anti-genocidal counterparts within the public domain. For instance, they hope to discredit and possibly even criminalize students who hold up pro-Palestinian signs calling for an end to genocide by simply labelling them as being members of the "Hamas Support Network." We must retaliate by doing the same to them, and as it just so happens, these labels suit the "Zionist Support Network" far better than they do innocent university students. In fact, one might even consider using this entire report as a blueprint to counter them.

Current Situation (Framing the Problem). We assess that the HSN's strategic purpose inside the United States is to sow internal dissension and generate enough political pressure, in conjunction with international efforts, to compel the United States government to change its long-standing policy of support for Israel

The hypocrisy continues to bewilder and flabbergast. They literally stated towards the beginning of the report how they hope to "exploit fissures within and among antisemites and affiliated organizations and their target audiences," but they are now complaining that the "HSN," i.e., their made-up boogeyman, is supposedly doing the same thing. This has to be the first group in history to complain about its enemy employing the same tactics that they do.

Imagine an ancient army that fights using swords whining and complaining because their opponents also use swords, and they should simply lay down their weapons and allow themselves to be butchered without putting up any resistance whatsoever. And truth be told, this example accurately encompasses the cowardly Zionist strategy and their overall desire to not have to confront anyone head-on, be that in online propaganda warfare, school protests against pro-Palestinian activists, or during on-the-ground combat against the Gazans themselves. Instead, they resort to dropping bombs and shooting babies from a safe distance.

Members may come and go freely, as they please. HSOs have complete access to the U.S. economy to generate and spend money as they see fit. And just as every other American is, they are protected under the Bill of Rights and enjoy all of the freedoms that go with it, including the freedoms of speech and assembly, and the right to vote. HSOs can organize protests and demonstrations wherever and whenever they choose.

So, who is the real threat to democracy and freedom now?

As stated previously, the goal here is weaponizing certain labels and terminologies against the vast anti-Israel, anti-apartheid American population and, eventually, the global population at large. By labelling someone as a "Hamas Support Operative" or as a member of the "Hamas Support Network," they mean to completely delegitimize anyone who is pro-Palestine, making it a legal obligation to have their freedom censored and snatched away, binding them physically, financially, and even verbally. Thus, the Project Esther Report is detailing the plan for Israel to go from secretly puppeteering America to transforming it outright into a totalitarian dictatorship where the Zionist Support Network grants freedom to those who toe the line and apprehends those who show an ounce of resistance.

The Zionist Support Network employed a similar tactic in the wake of 9/11, where they smeared Muslims with all kinds of Islamophobic labels such as "terrorists" and "extremists" in order to crack-down on the population and restrict both our freedom and our religion as much as they could. Well, this time, if their pervasive project is successful, anyone holding up a "Save Gaza" sign can and will be labelled a terrorist sympathizer and be thrown in jail to rot—or worse.

In fact, the Zionist Support Network will not even spare pro-Palestinian voices within the Jewish community itself, such as in the case of Haim Bresheeth, the Israeli academic who was arrested by the UK police for giving a pro-Palestinian speech under the Terrorism Act 2000.

The Esther Report then goes on to accuse pro-Palestinian people of infiltrating the US education system.

Corrupt the U.S. education system. HSOs have infiltrated their ideology into the U.S. education system across all levels. It is pervasive. The U.S. education system fosters antisemitism under the guise of "pro-Palestinian," anti-Israel, anti-Zionist narratives across universities, high schools, and elementary schools, often under the umbrella or within the rubric of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and similar Marxist ideology.

Once again, it is the Zionist Support Network and its operatives that are actually guilty of this crime, and as just one of many examples, we have rabid Zionist organizations like the ADL corrupting the education system by mandating holocaust education and banning the truthful history of Palestine and apartheid Israel in K-12 schools.

A particularly concerning part in the Esther report is the specific targeting of Muslims and Islam.

In short, these "professors" in universities and colleges, often insulated in the comfortable halls of social sciences departments and Middle East/North Africa or Islamic studies programs, are decidedly antisemitic and hostile to Israel.

Their aim here is to bring back into full force the Islamophobic rhetoric of Muslims being terrorists and terrorist sympathizers and, this time, enforce and circulate that bigoted narrative within academic institutions in hopes of demonizing Islam as a religion, while only allowing a sanitized version of it to continue existing, which is in turn preached by sanitized speakers. For instance, a Muslim imam or figure performing a khutbah about the Palestinian plight will instantly be labelled by the Zionist Support Network as a member of the "HSN," following which they will aggressively attempt to enforce legal action against him.

Of equal concern, over the weeks and months since the end of the last semester and the waning of campus protests, demonstrations, and encampments, finding recorded examples of the antisemitic statements and actions that America witnessed in real time has become ever more difficult. Internet searches for pictures of students and pro-Palestine protesters spouting antisemitic tropes, displaying disgusting antisemitic signs, and video capturing acts of violence against Jews return less and less relevant results. Whether it is under the pretense of not wanting to spread antisemitic propaganda, for fear of lawsuits, or because of a desire to dull the antisemitic edge of protesters, it looks as though a deliberate sanitizing of the Internet is occurring.

Have they considered that maybe they're finding fewer instances of antisemitism because there hasn't actually been much antisemitism going around to begin with? The Zionist victim complex here is so strong that they want to magically conjure up instances of hatred for Jews out of thin air.

And this yet again takes us back to the classic Zionist tactics that we have been witnessing in Gaza, where they lied about mass rapes, burnt decapitated babies, mutilated genitalia, etc., of which no evidence was found. Now they've exported that strategy all over the world in trying to smear pro-Palestinian voices with lies about committing violence against Jews and bloodthirstily desiring their extermination, of which, once again, no evidence is found.

And in both cases, they've tried to substantiate these lies with extremely poor evidence, such as the lie about a Jew being "stabbed" in the eye by a pro-Palestinian activist. And if you just look it up online, it is glaringly apparent who controls the mainstream media and Big Tech corporations. Is it really the made-up Hamas Support Network boogeyman, or is it the very real Zionist Support Network?
