This is a very important interview.

I really enjoyed Atzmon recounting how hearing Charlie Parker spoke to his soul and woke him up out of the fantasy that only Jews were capable of great things. The more he saw good in other people the more the founding myths of the self-chosen people came crashing down around him and compelled him to distance himself from the destructiveness of Judaism and the warring state of Israhell.

I admire both Mark and Gilad for coming right out and saying that it's not Talmudic Zionists that threaten humanity, but everything founded in the twisted myths of the Old Testament. This is also what really perplexes me about those who claim to inherit the title of the true Israelites. Who the fuck would want to claim the psychotic, blood thirsty, vengeful god of the Old Testament as theirs?
Take heed to yourself lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither you go, lest it become a snare in the midst of you.
-Exodus 34]

That was a very informative interesting interview. Atzmon is a very articulate and talented guy, a real ambassador for this movement.

Your right kolnidre, how anybody would take the callous, bloodthirsty god of the old testament as their own is beyond me.

One need not be a prophet to be aware of impending dangers. An accidental combination of experience and interest will often reveal events to one man under aspects which few see.

I've seen Atzmon in live performance close-up and he can do some sharp repartee - bordering on pilpul.

Currently though I rate him as plausible, if closely monitored and critical faculties maintained.
