Musician and philosopher Gilad Atzmon searches for the roots of our ever-escalating apocalyptic hysteria and finds them—where else—in the Torah, a.k.a. Old Testament, and its interpretive traditions. Check out his new article Apocalypse Now! Excerpts:

"For two decades, we, the people who happen to dwell on this planet, have been subjected to repeated apocalyptic hysteria. Following 9/11 we were taken into a world war against Islam as the 'Islamists,' we were told by our Neocon masters, were 'intending to eradicate our civilization.' Shortly after, the economic bubble collapsed. We were prepared for global poverty. Even as we recovered from the economic turmoil, global warming was threatening to grill us alive or maybe flush us into the ocean. In between all of those catastrophic scenarios, Isis was also a global existential threat and then came Covid-19...

"We observe that those who express any doubts about the official 9/11 narrative, global warming hysteria or Covid 19 are quickly labelled by the media as 'rightwing,' 'Nazis,' Conspiracy Theorists and antisemites. And we should know why: those who question the current apocalyptic religions interfere with our 'new monotheistic Jerusalemite order' — they think for themselves."
