ولما علم الحبيب منهم صدق إيمانهم، ونقاء نفوسهم، واخلاص نياتهم، وطهارة قلوبهم، ورفعة اخلاقهم، وجمال أرواحهم، اصطفاهم لذاته وانتقى ارواحهم انتقاءً رفيقاً رقيقاً يليق بتضحياتهم كما الزهور
تقطف من المروج بحب ودهشة وعناية، فذلك وربك الفوز العظيم. فكانت منزلة القرب هي المأوى، واكتملت الأفراح بالرجوع إلى الحبيب بلهفة العاشق الولهان، نفوس مطمئنة، راضية، مرضية، فهنيئاً لكم بما صبرتم ونعم عقبى الدار

When the Beloved recognized the sincerity of their faith, the purity of their souls, the devotion of their intentions, the cleanliness of their hearts, the nobility of their character, and the beauty of their spirits, He chose them for Himself. He gathered their souls with a gentleness and tenderness befitting their sacrifices—much like flowers plucked from a meadow with love, wonder, and care. By your Lord, that is the supreme triumph. Their abode became a station of nearness to Him, and their joy was made complete as they returned to the Beloved with the yearning of a love-struck soul—returning as spirits at peace, well-pleased and pleasing to Him. Blessed, then, are you for your steadfast patience; excellent indeed is the ultimate abode. (Translation: Google)

Any talk of "one state", "two state", "coexistence" or "equal rights for all" after the Genocide of Gaza and the decades long of criminal barbarity of those Jewish genocidal supremacists is complicity with ethnic cleansing and genocide

The best Jewish "israelis" can hope for is to face prosecution or deportation from the land they abused for so long, every last one of them.

Will this nightmare ever end?
How many more souls have to perish?
Will the criminals ever feel satisfied?
How many more babies need to be mutilated?
Will this barbarity ever cease to be?
Many ask in bewildered rage and fatigued anger

Look at me

I would love to write poetry about love,

Paint rainbows and butterflies,

Roll in a meadow

Enchanted by rosebud scent

Run down the hills with open arms

Embrace the Earth

Inhale the sky

■ “Settler colonialism” is a misnomer

■ It implies just a migration of some people to settle somewhere else

■ It sounds normal, harmless and benign

■ It sounds soft, peaceful and inclusive

■ It sounds permanent, “here to stay”

What we have in Palestine, is not “settler colonialism”, what we have is no less than a Supremacist Genocidal Barbaric Belligerent Occupation of Historic Palestine which has to be terminated.

Palestinian-Israel Conflict in Gaza in 2014 (AFP/Getty/Baltimore Sun)

[Posted on this blog on 08/08/14. There's no particular reason to assume that the thirst for Palestinian blood among Israeli Jews has been satisfied yet. Quite the contrary, there's reason to believe they will ignore the decision of the World Court to cease & desist. – Ed.]

A short interview with «Ο Φιλελεύθερος», Cyprus

Do you have any comments on the bloodshed in the Gaza Strip?

Gilad Atzmon: It is agonizing to watch the brutality of the Israelis, but it was predictable. Israeli genocidal inclinations are entirely consistent with Jewish supremacist culture and Old Testament barbarism. The fact that 91% of the Israeli population supports the IDF massacre confirms that we are confronting a murderous collective that is a grave threat to world peace.

What is Israel trying to achieve in the region? Is it possible it is acting to insure [sic] its control of energy resources that may exist off the Gaza Strip?

GA: It is possible that the massacre in Gaza has been lightly influenced by geopolitical considerations. However, the Israeli lust for violence and its broad support from Jewish institutions around the world suggests that the motivation to kill and destroy other people is embedded in Zionist culture. Its homicidal impulses may relate to the manner in which modern Jews interpret their sense of ‘choseness.’

You have often expressed your support of Islamic organizations such as Hezbollah and Hamas that have resorted to violence as a means of achieving their objectives. Do you believe that resorting to violence is an acceptable way to achieve political results?

In referring to Israeli soldiers as 'our heroes', Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis not only has Palestinian blood on his hands but potentially Jewish blood too.

Britain’s chief rabbi, Ephraim Mirvis, spoke at a public event at a synagogue last Sunday to extol the “outstanding” performance of the Israeli military in Gaza. He did so days before South Africa argues its case before the International Court of Justice in The Hague – starting today – that Israel is committing genocide in the enclave.

Whether Israel is eventually found to be perpetrating genocide may prove more a political decision than a legal verdict, given the pressures on the 15 judges from their respective national leaderships.

But it is indisputable that Israel has committed war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. It is known to have killed more than 23,000 Palestinians, most of them women and children, and seriously wounded tens of thousands more. It has driven from their homes the overwhelming majority of the enclave’s population of 2.3 million – that is, Israel has ethnically cleansed them.

This message does not follow a “standard” form of communication. It is not smoothed by any concerns about anyone’s “sensitivities”, Jewish or not, amidst the live-streamed Genocide, and the screams of children of Gaza being slaughtered and burned alive by the Jewish state, its leaders, its soldiers and its racist, supremacist society:

A personal reflection on chutzpah, depravity and disintegration of ethics.

Multi-generational indoctrination with "Chosen-mess", superiority and exceptionalism, leads to developing a super-inflated image of oneself and a distorted one of the world, as well as the inverse of universal egalitarian ethics which then manifests in:

 ●  Developing violent narcissistic psychopathic      personality disorders.
 ●  Developing chutzpah with a hyper-inflated ego.
 ●  Glorifying obscenity, to attract attention.

All are leading to normalising and celebrating depravity. Glorifying obscenity is unsettling and disturbing to the inner soul.

The soul/ inner moral compass/ consciousness/ intrinsic nature of the human is to aspire to the Ideal, Divine Sublime Principles of love, compassion, kindness, inclusion, equality, justice, beauty, altruism, cooperation...etc.

Our souls are delicately balanced and equipped with the ability to distinguish between Good (Divine Sublime Principles) and Evil. Our souls are also hardwired to dislike and avoid evil and to strive to live by these principles. When it does, it finds peace, harmony, tranquility and joy.

Supremacist belief systems and their related actions (i.e. hate, envy, aggression) fundamentally contradict soul wisdom, thus causing the delicate inner balance to cave in, and dichotomy to occur. Misalignment of the soul embroils, violence and disturbance replace the natural peace of the soul. Thus, the authentic higher self is negated. Self-respect vanishes. Shame and self-loath brew.

Blessed Christmas and heartfelt wishes to you all dear beloved friends.

It saddens me to say that Christmas for me, has always been a very sad time never a time of joy, but this year the sadness is particularly overwhelming.

Through out my adult life I have watched people around me celebrate the birth of the Palestinian man of peace, who came with the message of peace, in the land of peace, while turning a blind eye to the perpetual crimes committed against him, and against the land of his birth; his homeland has been destroyed, his people dispossessed, maimed and murdered, his message desecrated and trampled on, year after year, decade after decade, without an end in sight.

I am still unable to reconcile the breathtaking beauty of his message with the unimaginable cruelty, complicity or apathy of many his followers.

I still remember weeping often during my children and grandchildren nativities plays, hearing children cheering for Jerusalem or singing Bethlehem, while children of Jerusalem and Bethlehem are shot, bombed and torn to pieces. Often it felt like either I landed on the wrong planet or I'm living in a parallel universe, no one to talk to and no one even notices my distress and grief, no one cared to ask.

What kept me going is the knowing that if this beloved bighearted rebel, Jesus peace be upon him, was here today, he would be part of our Palestinian resistance.
