The Prophetic Mussar of the Tohor midda of t’shuva

The Torah Parashat Vayishlach בראשית לד-לו addresses time-oriented commandments wherein “time” refers to wisdom rather than literal time tick-tock past history narratives. This Torah portion navigates complex stories which includes genealogies that embody deeper moral and ethical rebukes which later generations need to explore as understood through the wisdom of Mussar; a Jewish ethical, educational rebuke: active pursuit of fair restitution/compensation to the victim—rather than mere emotional guilt or substitutionary atonement. The relationship dynamics between Jacob’s family and the people of Shechem illustrate the significance of respecting sexual boundaries and ensuring that interactions conducted with both respect & honor. This contrasts sharply with certain Christian theological models of repentance, where forgiveness is framed through vicarious sacrifice, often without direct address of the victim’s pain or ongoing accountability.

 

T’shuva a key tohor middah. It fundamentally requires remembering the past through introspection, as exemplified through the month of Elul, Rosh HaShanna and Yom Kippur. This “wisdom” makes no attempt to justify past reactionary folly. But rather attempts to weigh the need to address the nature of damages inflicted upon others which requires some kind of mutually agreed upon fair compensation of damages. The Prince and people of Sh’Cem sought to profit from their crimes, they never considered the need to fairly compensate the Yaacov and his family for the rape of his daughter. Simeon and Levi massacre the males, rescue Dinah, and the other brothers plunder the city. Jacob rebukes them for endangering the family, but they retort: “Should he treat our sister as a harlot?” (p’suk 34:31)—highlights their raw demand for justice, even if their method exceeds Torah bounds. Jacob’s return to Bethel, Rachel’s death in childbirth, and Esau’s genealogy—highlighting continuity across generations

The genealogies imply that this wisdom of remembering past sexual folly, in order to due t’shuva – meaning pay some agreed upon terms or amounts to achieve some fair compensation of damages, greatly differs from the alien and utterly foreign substitute theology of repentance which totally ignores the pain suffered by the victims. Mussar principles of self-examination, character refinement, and moral accountability. T’shuva, a tohor middah, centers on honest remembrance of harm—especially sexual violation or disgrace (avoda zara dishonor in broader terms)—coupled with active, victim-centered restitution rather than emotional guilt or vicarious substitution. Esau’s extensive genealogy, underscore generational continuity: moral failings (or rectifications) simply don’t just disappear after the criminal generation dies out. War-crimes against Humanity never erased but must be confronted by descendants. Fear of Heaven means that peoples’ pursue t’shuva consequent to their ruined Good Name reputations, which might never heal across the span of generations.

Guilt theology, such as ‘this false messiah died for you’ not the same thing as remembering past personal, in this specific case sex disgrace or avoda zara dishonor. This significant distinction – a vital Mussar k’vanna throughout the T’NaCH, Talmud, and Midrashim. Which embodies the principles of accountability, respect, and reflection, absolutely symbolized through Torah judicial court-trials, which make fair restitution of damages inflicted – as exemplified by the 10 plagues and the splitting of the Sea of Reeds.

 

True t’shuva requires an honest acknowledgment of one’s sexual missteps, facilitating a path towards genuine correction and healing that others have suffered. The narratives compel us to reflect on past actions rather than ignore them, emphasizing that growth comes from inevitable missteps and the commitment to make amends. This t’shuva simply crucial for both individuals and communities seeking to forge healthy relationships. The detailed lineages rebuke the generations that moral failings (or corrections) pass down. Each generation must reflect on predecessors’ actions, rectify where possible, and avoid repeating past folly. This collective responsibility rejects “be here now” spiritual hippie individualism. Instead it fosters an ongoing ethical growth in families and communities.

 

The actions of Shechem and his father highlight a critical ethical breach: the attempt to profit from wrongdoing without appropriate restitution. In contrast, the expectation of justice in Jewish law mandates compensatory measures for harm done. This underscores the significance of fairness and moral responsibility in interactions. The judicial trials and structures presented serve as models for community accountability. They reinforce the idea that restitution: not simply limited to mere transactional affair, but an ethical obligation that reflects respect for the victim and for communal harmony. The 1939 British White Paper triggered the Shoah as did American pride which now viewed refugee populations as inferior scum on par with Christ-Killer slanders.

American attitudes in the 1930s–1940s reflected restrictive immigration quotas, intensified by the Great Depression, isolationism, and widespread antisemitism—including lingering “Christ-killer” slanders that portrayed Jews as collectively responsible for Jesus’ death, fueling prejudice. The 1938 Évian Conference (convened by FDR) exposed global reluctance: most nations (including the U.S.) refused to expand quotas for Jewish refugees, even post-Kristallnacht. Polls showed strong American opposition (e.g., ~72% against more Jewish immigrants in late 1938), sometimes viewing refugees as undesirable or inferior—echoing demeaning stereotypes. This collective failure to act, prioritizing national interests over humanitarian rescue, parallels the Shechemites’ self-serving avoidance of true restitution.

 

The genealogical refrains in these chapters further embody the continuity of responsibility across generations. They remind us that recognizing and rectifying past wrongs not limited to an individual personal journey. But rather a collective one, where each generation – called to learn from and address the failings of those before them. The ‘born again Xtian’ represents a total negation that limits faith to “be here now”. The narratives of this Torah prophetic mussar therefore serves as a powerful Aggadic/Midrashic story in the T’NaCH tradition which punctuates the importance of accountability, respect, and fair restitution.

 

Through introspection and a commitment to t’shuva, individuals and communities strive to navigate their moral landscapes, with the common goal of achieving integrity in communal relationships and actions. This wisdom encourages a richly nuanced understanding of justice which emphasizes and prioritizes the transformative power of genuine reflection and ethical responsibilities, promoting healing and mutual respect among and between Jewish marriages and families. This prophetic call in Vayishlach urges ethical integrity, respect for boundaries (sexual and otherwise), and ongoing responsibility, vital for Jewish continuity and mutual honor in relationships.

Should Shechem Deal with Our Sister as an Harlot

The difference between Torah as a Constitution of the 12 tribes of the Republic from Torah as the religion of the Jewish people established through the Middle Ages codes of the Mishna Torah and Shulkan Aruch. Classical lashon Chazal has Torah, dat, halacha, derech eretz, minhag—but not “Judaism” in the Protestant sense of private belief and Sunday rituals.

The medieval “religionization” of Torah—Mishneh Torah, Tur, Shulchan Aruch—does something different. But both Church and Islam have produced the fruits of genocide. Large swaths of their histories – indeed marked by forced conversions, inquisitions, or holy wars justified by pompous claims of universal truth. Xtian Europe under the Nazis, and Islam where the ’48 and ’67 wars — wars of genocide to throw the Jews into the Sea.

Torah defines the 8th Oral Torah midda — TRUTH — (which the church denies to this day) as “path”. Meaning that each person and/or people have their own true path destiny walk before their Gods. Since only Israel accepts the God of Sinai ipso facto Goyim worship other Gods. The local tribal god of Sinai does not compare to the Universal Monotheistic Gods of either Xtianity or Islam. Since only Israel accepted the Sinai, all non-Jewish God-talk is, by definition, “other Gods;” no where does the Xtian Bible or Muslim Koran once bring the ׊ם השם revealed in the first Sinai commandment. Furthermore the false counterfeit religions fail to distinguish the fundamental concept of faith which discerns between the Divine Names יה, האל, אל, אלהים, אל שדי, איש האלהים from the Shekinah ׊ם השם.

The Book of בראשית, the Avot called upon these Divine Names because the Torah in the Heavens; whereas at Sinai the revelation of the Torah upon the earth, expressed through the revelation of the ׊ם השם. Thereafter in the Book of D’varim explicitly taught that Torah does not come from heaven. Goyim rejection of the Torah means that for them their God remain in Heaven and not within the Yatzir Ha’Tov within the bnai brit hearts.
 
Torah understands truth as path. Xtianity & Islam understand truth as set in stone a monopoly dictate. Truth as “Path” validates that many paths exist that a person him or herself can choose to walk therein. “Path” as a monopoly dictate means that the dominant Xtian or Muslim theology slaughters any and all heretics. The two definitions of “TRUTH” not at all the same. Torah revealed only to the Jewish people. We as a tiny tiny tiny minority of Mankind do not pretend to any psychotic notions of “Universal” anything least of all the local tribal god of Israel.
 
Its truly an honor to discuss with you the different “textures of languages”; cotton fiber feels different from wool or linen fibers. The Torah directly forbids mixing linen and wool in clothes. Linen a summer fabric whereas wool a winter fabric. The oversimplification of “Universal Monotheism” an utter abomination of faith. Rambam’s Mishneh Torah a comprehensive code of halacha perversion; its יד\14 arranged not around tribes and land allotments, but around abstract legal categories and mitzvah-topics. His halacha code designed to permit Jews in g’lut to learn and lived religiously obey. The subject becomes the yachid (individual) asking, “What is my chiyuv?” more than a polity asking, “What is our constitutional structure?” The national-constitutional elements subsumed and lost under the religion of Yidishkeit.

Certain strands of Jewish thought emphasizing particularism—the idea that the Torah originally revealed specifically to Israel alone; which excludes all universal pretensions. That other nations have their own valid paths because they refused to accept the revelation of the Torah at Sinai. For example the false Rambam opinion known as the 7 mitzvot bnai noach (primarily Sanhedrin 56a-60b) which he interpreted as 7 Universal commandments for all Mankind. The Book of D’varim classifies two types of Goyim residing in the oath sworn lands; the gere toshav and the Canaanite NaCree or Samaritan refugees who have no legal rights because they falsely claim themselves to be the “real Jews”; a claim taken up by both Xtian and Muslim replacement theologies.

Despite Rambam’s bombastic bunk claims, his code does not remotely resemble the revelation of Oral Torah at Horev because his code prioritized alien Aristotle deductive Order & logic over the kabbala of rabbi Akiva’s פרדס inductive Order & logic. The lights of Channuka testify that only פרדס logic explanes the revelation of the Oral Torah at Horev on Yom Kippur 40 days after the sin of the Golden Calf. Meaning the P’rushim catagorically rejected the assimilated Tzedukim/Karaite attempts to convert Jerusalem into a Greek polis and forget Oral Torah inductive logic.

The Aggadic source in mesechta Sanhedrin which address the subject of 7 mitzvot “bnai noach” strictly and only applies to gere toshav Goyim living within the borders of Judea. The Sanhedrin courts Capital Crimes mandate only applicable to within the borders of Judea when Jews rule the land as an Independent nation. The Sanhedrin court failed to correctly judge Herod, and put him to death for his Capital Crimes because Herod was appointed as king by the Roman occupiers!

Some want to argue that Nazi ideology was not “purely” Xtian because it blended pagan Germanic elements, racial pseudoscience that favored culling inferior races, anti-clerical tendencies etc. But this argument utterly fails to ignore the plain and simple fact that for 2000+ years the church has publicly boasted that Europe converted to Xtianity and accepted that faith. Hence the curse: “by their fruits you shall know them” applies equally to both Xtian Europe and Muslim Arab lands which make the same boast! That those Middle East lands converted to embraced Allah as God & Muhammad as the last prophet.

Arab propaganda has pulled a rhetoric rabbit out of its hat! Nakba originally referred to the defeat of 5 Arab Armies and their failure to throw the Jews into the Sea; the nascent Jewish state (as coined by Constantin Zureiq in his 1948 pamphlet, blaming Arab disunity and aggression).. Changed Nakba unto the Arab refugees, while ignoring the greater “Nakba” of Jews thrown out of Arab lands!

The Oral Torah stands upon the משל metaphor of Israelites making bricks through the medium of straw in ancient Egypt. The “bricks” נמשל, the logical middot taught by Rabbi Akiva’s 10 middot, Rabbi Yishmael’s 13 middot, and Rabbi HaGalilee’s 32 middot. The study of both Talmud and Midrashim – halacha and aggada builds the “construct” of understanding the intent of these texts through the basic building blocks of these 10, 13, and 32 respectively. The middot of Rabbi Akiva, Rabbi Yishmael, and Rabbi Eliezer HaGelili are literally paths of reasoning—ways we walk from text to halacha. Even inside Torah there are multiple derachim—Beit Hillel and Beit Shammai, Bavli and Yerushalmi—“eilu v’eilu divrei Elokim chayim.”

Rambam’s Universal God follows the Avoda Zara of Xtian and Muslim theology just as his Universal bnai Noach represents only his own personal opinion among Reshonim peer scholars! The Reshonim did not poskin halacha from aggadic sources as did the Rambam. Halacha follows the majority and not a single minority opinion. The Rambam supporters centuries later confuse the lone Rambam misinterpretation of 7 mitzvot bnai noach as applicable to all Goyim Universally – simply bat shit crazy.

The Rambam codification of halacha called Yad Chazakah as opposed to the false name Mishna Torah. Why the latter a false name for the Rambam halachic code? Because the Book of D’varim has the 2nd Name of Mishna Torah! Rabbi Yechuda Ha’Nasi named the 6 Orders of Sanhedrin courtroom rulings “Mishna” based upon the 2nd name of the Book of D’varim. Mishna Torah means “Common Law” – meaning law derived from courtroom common law precedent Case/Rule comparisons! The Rambam’s halachic code a Statute law that follows the model of Greek and Roman law imposed by governmental decrees rather than courtroom rulings. The two legal systems day and night different from one another.

The post Shoah term “Righteous Gentile” refers to Goyim who risked their lives to save Jews from barbaric European Xtian European Nazis. World to Come refers to the brit cut between the pieces wherein Avram cut a brit alliance concerning the eternal future born birth of the people having the status of “Chosen Cohen seed of Avraham, Yitzak and Yaacov and not the future born seed of Moshe Rabbeinu which forced HaShem to make “t’shuva” and remember the oaths sworn to the Avot. Even HaShem cannot annul a Torah oath. But even Man can annul vows!

The “Sanhedrin” under Roman authority compares to the “Sanhedrin” established by Napoleon. Both existed only as a rubber stamp – tits on a boar hog. Torah as constitution of a sovereign people vs Torah as religion of a powerless minority. Everything else—Rambam, Shulchan Aruch, Bnei Noach, Christianity, Islam, Nakba—fits into that split.

Torah as constitution vs Torah as medieval “religion”; A republic of tribes in its land, not individuals shopping for “salvation.” Torah, dat, halacha, derech eretz, minhag—never “Judaism” as a private Sunday-style faith. Rambam’s 14 books (yad) are arranged thematically, not by tribes, land, courts, or real political institutions. This latter g’lut “Earth-quake”: shifts from “How does the people govern?” to “What is my individual chiyuv?” These codes are optimized for galut Jews, to survive as a religious minority without sovereignty. This represents a “medieval religionization” of Torah—the turning of brit Sinai into a statute-based religion.

The putrid puke of ‘Superior Race’ dominated the morality of Christian America prior to and throughout the FDR Administration.

Josef Mengele, infamous for his brutal medical experiments on prisoners at Auschwitz, including twins, was indeed a product of the broader eugenics movement that had deep roots beyond Nazi Germany. While Mengele’s actions embodied the extreme horrors of Nazi racial ideology, the pseudoscientific framework of eugenics—aimed at “improving” the human race through selective breeding, sterilization, and elimination of “undesirables”—was not uniquely German. It was pioneered in the United Kingdom by Francis Galton in the late 19th century but gained significant traction and real-world application in the United States during the early 20th century, influencing policies worldwide, including those adopted by the Nazis.

In the US, eugenics became a mainstream movement by the 1910s and 1920s, supported by prominent scientists, philanthropists, and institutions. Key figures like Charles Davenport, director of the Eugenics Record Office (funded by the Carnegie Institution), advocated for laws to prevent the reproduction of those deemed “genetically inferior,” including immigrants, people with disabilities, the poor, and racial minorities. This led to tangible policies: Over 30 US states enacted laws allowing involuntary sterilizations. California was a hotspot, sterilizing around 20,000 people between 1909 and 1979—more than any other state. By the 1930s, over 60,000 Americans had been forcibly sterilized under eugenics laws.

The 1924 Immigration Act, influenced by eugenicists like Harry Laughlin, limited entry from “undesirable” regions like Southern and Eastern Europe, citing pseudoscientific claims of racial inferiority. Major funders included the Rockefeller Foundation and the Harriman family. These organizations not only backed US programs but also exported ideas abroad, including to Germany. Eugenics was promoted at state fairs through “Fitter Families” contests, where families were judged on “genetic fitness,” and it influenced public health campaigns against everything from mental illness to criminality.

The 1924 Immigration Act (also known as the Johnson-Reed Act or National Origins Act) played a significant role in shaping U.S. immigration policies that restricted Jewish refugees fleeing Nazi persecution during Franklin D. Roosevelt’s administration (1933–1945). Enacted nearly a decade before FDR took office, the law established a quota system based on “national origins” from the 1890 census, which deliberately favored immigrants from Northern and Western Europe while sharply limiting those from Southern and Eastern Europe—regions that were home to the majority of Europe’s Jewish population at the time. This framework, rooted in eugenicist ideas of racial hierarchy promoted by figures like Harry Laughlin, effectively barred mass Jewish immigration by capping annual entries from high-emigration countries like Germany, Poland, and Russia at low levels (e.g., around 26,000 from Germany annually).

Under FDR, these quotas were not only maintained but often underfilled due to additional administrative barriers imposed by his State Department, led by figures like Assistant Secretary Breckenridge Long, who harbored antisemitic views and prioritized economic, isolationist, and security concerns amid the Great Depression and rising fears of espionage.

The German quota was filled in only one of FDR’s 12 years in office, and in most years, it was less than 25% utilized. This resulted in over 190,000 unused visa slots between 1933 and 1945 that could have been allocated to Jewish refugees without changing the law. Extra requirements, such as proving financial self-sufficiency (the “likely to become a public charge” rule) or having no relatives in Nazi-occupied territories (the 1941 “relative rule”), disqualified many applicants.

Despite the escalating crisis—including Kristallnacht in 1938 and the Holocaust’s intensification—the 1924 Act’s quotas were not adjusted to accommodate refugees. The U.S. lacked a dedicated refugee policy until late in the war; immigration was treated strictly under the existing quota system. Proposals to admit refugees temporarily (e.g., to U.S. territories like the Virgin Islands) or expand quotas were rejected by FDR’s administration, citing public opposition and congressional resistance.

The Act’s eugenics-influenced design aligned with prevailing American attitudes of xenophobia, racism, and antisemitism, which persisted into the FDR era and influenced policy enforcement. Polls showed widespread support for restricting immigration (e.g., 72% opposed increasing Jewish intake post-Kristallnacht), and FDR prioritized domestic recovery and neutrality over humanitarian intervention until the creation of the War Refugee Board in 1944—a late and limited response that saved tens of thousands but came after millions had perished.

Critics argue FDR could have done more through executive discretion, such as instructing consulates to maximize quota usage or granting temporary haven, without needing congressional approval. Defenders point to political constraints, including an isolationist Congress and public fears of economic strain or infiltration by spies. Overall, the 1924 Act’s restrictive structure provided the legal backbone for policies that effectively closed U.S. borders to most Jewish refugees, contributing to the admission of only about 250,000 between 1933 and 1944—far below potential capacity.

German eugenicists, facing post-World War I isolation, looked to the US as a model. They admired American sterilization laws and immigration policies, which they saw as practical applications of racial hygiene (Rassenhygiene). Adolf Hitler himself praised US eugenics in Mein Kampf, calling America a “racially superior” nation for its restrictive laws. The Rockefeller Foundation provided grants to German institutions like the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Anthropology, Human Heredity, and Eugenics (KWIA) in the 1920s and 1930s. This supported researchers like Eugen Fischer and Otmar von Verschuer, who shaped Nazi policies

In 1933, shortly after Hitler rose to power, Germany passed the Law for the Prevention of Hereditarily Diseased Offspring, modeled after US sterilization laws (particularly California’s). By 1945, around 400,000 Germans were sterilized under this law. American eugenicists like Laughlin received honorary degrees from German universities, and German scientists visited US facilities. This cross-pollination helped legitimize Nazi actions as “scientific.”

Mengele, a physician and SS officer, earned his PhD in anthropology and conducted research under von Verschuer at the KWIA before joining Auschwitz in 1943. Von Verschuer’s work on twins and heredity—funded in part by Rockefeller grants—influenced Mengele’s infamous experiments, where he sought to unlock “genetic secrets” to create a “master race.” Mengele sent samples from murdered prisoners back to von Verschuer’s lab, blurring the line between research and atrocity. This wasn’t an aberration; it was an extension of eugenics principles that had been tested and refined in the US.

While Mengele was a monstrous figure in Nazi history, he operated within a eugenics paradigm that the US had helped pioneer and export. Post-World War II, the horrors of Nazi eugenics discredited the movement globally, leading to its decline in the US by the 1940s, though remnants lingered in policies like forced sterilizations into the 1970s. This history underscores how pseudoscience can justify profound inhumanity when intertwined with policy and power.

The complexities of Doge reducing the Federal Bureaucrapic sprawl.

This situation exemplifies the intricate balance between government efficiency efforts and the legal, ethical, and financial responsibilities owed to public employees and taxpayers. The involvement of Elon Musk and the Trump administration in proposing and executing these workforce reduction strategies adds a layer of complexity to the political landscape surrounding federal employment and efficiency initiatives.

Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER) estimates that more than 154,000 federal civilian employees (about 7% of the workforce) were placed on paid leave during 2025 as part of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)’s efforts to reduce the federal workforce under Elon Musk’s involvement.

This resulted in roughly $10 billion in taxpayer-funded compensation for workers who were not performing duties (i.e., being paid to stay home). PEER sent a letter to the Government Accountability Office (GAO) alleging potential legal violations, including circumvention of the Administrative Leave Act (which limits paid administrative leave to 10 days per year in most cases). However, enforcement is described as complicated due to legal hurdles, the Trump administration’s control over relevant offices, and the need for complex administrative or prosecutorial action.

The $10bn figure is an estimate from PEER, not an official government audit (yet). It’s part of ongoing debates about the real costs vs. claimed benefits of the Trump administration’s workforce reduction efforts via DOGE.

Regulatory rules for the ALA were delayed and only fully effective in September 2025, complicating retroactive application. The Trump administration’s control over key offices (e.g., Department of Justice, OPM) makes prosecution or penalties unlikely. This approach avoided immediate mass firings (which carry stronger civil service protections and litigation risks) but created a scenario where taxpayers funded a large-scale “paid to stay home” transition.

DOGE contributed to one of the largest federal workforce reductions in modern history, with estimates of 300,000+ departures by late 2025 (through buyouts, resignations, and cuts). Musk celebrated drops of around 9% in the workforce, but overall federal spending rose in 2025 despite these efforts, due to factors like mandatory programs (e.g., Social Security).

This exemplifies the tension in aggressive efficiency drives: bold cuts can yield long-term savings but incur upfront costs, legal risks, and human impacts on employees and services. The $10 billion PEER estimate underscores how “efficiency” reforms can sometimes backfire in the short term, fueling ongoing debates about real costs versus claimed benefits. The GAO’s potential review could clarify more, but as of now, it’s part of a polarized discussion on government reform.

EU and Indonesia conceal their true interests why they oppose Elon Musk’s xAI Grok.

Indonesia’s ban on Grok xAI primarily stems from concerns over the potential generation of harmful content, particularly non-consensual sexualized imagery. The Indonesian government claims it has concerns of AI technologies that could produce non-consensual sexual imagery or deepfakes, which can violate individual rights and privacy. The government declares that the generation of explicit content as a serious violation of human rights that poses risks to women and children, creating a societal obligation to regulate such technologies. As part of their regulatory approach, Indonesia aims to set boundaries around technologies that could lead to creating harmful or unethical content, ensuring they align with local values and laws.

Asked the Grok xAI – can you post nude pictures? Here Grok’s response:

No, I can’t and won’t post or generate nude pictures (or any explicit images).

I’m a text-based AI — I don’t have the ability to upload, post, or directly share images of any kind, and even if I could, I don’t provide or create NSFW/explicit visual content.

If you’re looking for that kind of material, you’ll need to use platforms actually designed for adult content (and follow their rules + age verification). I’m not one of those platforms. 😏

While Indonesia might indeed be the first to specifically ban Grok related to deepfake concerns, other countries have also taken regulatory actions against similar technologies, making the claim of being the “first” somewhat nuanced. Hence the Fake News CNN/NBC\BBC HeadLine – misleading, which conceals other prime reasons to attack xAI Grok. Even if xAI Grok permitted Playboy like pictures, such pictures easily accessible across the internet.

Rational Logic vs. Defeatist Revionist History

Thank You Nitay. The Libtard left an absolute joke … and completely out of power. Based upon the mastery of English I assume that Haviv Rettig Gur and Hussein Abubakr Mansour are American Arab/Muslim Americans. As an Israeli/American – made aliya to Israel in 1991 – its interesting to listen to American Muslims views, how they perceive the Libtard of crazy left-wing Americans, educated by Universities to interpret reality based upon outrage and subjectivization of issues.

Rational logic which split Jews against Jews during the Middle Ages/Reshonim scholars of Jewish elite the “Civil War” which pitted inductive logic established by the Tannaim and Amoraim Framers of the Talmud and Midrashim vs. the rediscovered Greek deductive logic originally developed by Socrates Plato and Aristotle. This Jewish Reshonim Civil War pitted the French Common law school of inductive reasoning against the Rambam/Sephardi school of deductive reasoning.

It seems that what these two American Muslims address – the gulf which separates Left-wing intellectual subjectivism pitted against traditional/conservative deductive reasoning which dominated University education until perhaps the re-establishment of the Jewish State, starting in 1948; but really flowery post the June 1967 Six Day War.

Why did the fortress of traditional University deductive reasoning education in Western Europe suddenly switch to prioritization of subjective emotional half-truth propaganda reasoning. Joseph Goebbels was highly intelligent and educated Man. Yet his propaganda mastery controlled the political narrative till Allied bombers and Armies led by Russian and American Generals Zhukov, Patton & Bradley utterly Gazafied Nazi Germany.

It seems to me that the British and French “defeat” in the 1956 attempt to seize the Suez Canal by these to Western European States; the “defeat” of European ‘Great Power Imperialism’ to dominate the sphere of Western Influence over all the States of the Middle East by seizing the Suez — this not only cemented the bi-polar US – USSR Cold War by demoting both defeated in WWII France and post War Britain to second tier powers. Then came the shock of the June 1967 War wherein France “betrayed” its alliance with Israel and Britain declared its “neutrality”; yet post War both States (LBJ tied down in Vietnam) irrationally attempted to force a “New Set of Rules upon Israel/revisionist History” by pretending that the Arabs nations won that disastrous War for all Arab rejection of Jews equal rights to achieve self-determination in the Middle East as originally expressed in the 1917 Balfour Declaration – 1922 League of Nations Palestine Mandate to establish a Jewish National Home in Palestine. ((Boy that last sentence a mouthful.))

Subjective irrational revisionist history ignores the fact that the Ottoman Empire never referred to Greater Syria as Palestine other than in European made maps. The Ottoman Empire – known as “the Sick Man of Europe” in the 19th Century could not afford its own cartographers. Arabs to this day cannot pronounce the letter P in the European word “Palestine”. The Western Universities “supported” the British/French revisionist history known as UN Resolution 242, which ignores the fact that Russia and Poland “occupy” Prussia to this very day! That the moment David Ben Gurion declared National Independence and Israel thereafter won the 1948 first Independence War … that the League of Nation name “Palestine” ceased to exist. Universities ignore that all Arab states rejected the Peel Commission of 1936 which directly led to UN GA Resolution 181 in 1947. All Arab states absolutely rejected the European Two State Solution Model.

Yet subjective revisionist history as promoted by Universities arbitrarily promotes the Two State Solution! Palestine as a UN Protectorate territory ceased to exist in 1948. Arafat’s opportunist propaganda wherein he named the Palestine Liberation Army (PLO) in 1964, revived this forgotten Name; had Ben Gurion named the new Jewish State “Palestine” obviously their would be no “Palestinians” today.

The next level University revisionist history: Beyond Palestine and two state solutions 181 pretense that Israel today remains a Protectorate Territory “created” by the UN itself rather than an Independent nation who twice won its National Independence in two Arab Wars of genocide; Nasser swore that the Arabs in 1967 would throw the Jews into the Sea. And within Israel, the Israeli government ordered the digging of mass graves expecting an absolute massacre of the Israeli population by Egypt Syrian and Jordanian Armies! Therefore the next level of University revisionist history subjectivism – it ignores the fact that Arabs lost those Wars and became permanent refugee populations without a country of their own. Never existed an Arab Palestine in all recorded history. Yet the University protests proclaim: From the River to the Sea Palestine will be free”.

Revisionist history by definition subjective. This makes revisionist history as taught by University Professors propaganda on the Order of Joseph Georbels of Nazi Germany. Propaganda by its essence and nature; by its “Race” according to the language employed by Nazi propaganda, promotes emotional outrage rather than deductive rational reasoning which dominated University Education programs prior to the 2nd Tier “Great Power” status of Western European degraded powers. Revisionist history by definition rejects that post WWII US and USSR sat at the top of the heap of Great Powers.

Russia Down-graded its Diplomatic Relations With Israel

Russia has voiced its concerns over the recent actions of the Trump administration, specifically regarding the capture of Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela. The regime change in Venezuela evokes mixed reactions, with some in Russia characterizing it as “armed aggression” against a sovereign nation. Following the U.S. military actions leading to the capture of Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela, Russia has reacted sharply, escalating tensions not only with the U.S. but also with other nations, notably Israel.

The diplomatic strain between Russia and Israel, following the U.S. military actions in Venezuela resulting in Nicolás Maduro’s capture, can be connected through several interlinked factors: Perception of U.S. Aggression; Strategic Alliances; Geopolitical Realignment following the Israeli victory in the Oct 7th 2023 Abomination War which radically changed the balance of power for European States like Russia, England, and France across the Middle East unto the Horn of Africa.

Russia characterizes the U.S. military actions in Venezuela as “armed aggression,” framing it as part of a broader pattern of Western imperialism. This perception exacerbates Russia’s dissatisfaction with U.S. foreign policy and influences its relations with other nations aligned with the U.S., such as Israel. The ease of the US victory invasion sharply contrasts with the Ukraine War and the Israeli 12 War victory over Iran after the collapse of the Assad government in Syria.

By severing diplomatic ties with Israel, Russia seeks to fortify bonds with nations that espouse a similar anti-Western agenda. This consolidation of partnerships serves to promote a unified front against perceived U.S. hegemony, creating conditions for increased cooperation with other nations that resist U.S. influence.
