As a community, we need to address the danger of slogan Zionism. When I first became a Zionist in 2014, there was not much pro-Israel activity on Instagram or Facebook. The little that was on Facebook was kept semi-private (some group members posted what they were learning) in secret Facebook groups. On one hand, that is a sad fact. On the other hand, it was beneficial, as history and facts regarding Israel was shared among our own, only. Most of the facts shared were accurate; some were not, and the ones not, never made it out of the Zionism bubble.

On Instagram, very few were publicly sharing facts, and those who did, really were subject-matter experts. There was one content creator, who is no longer posting, but who was sharing information not found in any online materials or books – the last names of Arabs in Israel (all of Israel which includes Gaza, and Judea & Samaria), and their origination countries. He did not make daily videos, and would post at best once a week with well-written details. I credit him for teaching his followers that there are no Arabs indigenous to Israel, and that last names are an excellent way to push back on lies. Meanwhile, most Jewish last names have a strong connection to Israel. Even in my own family, my maternal great grandmother’s maiden name was ‘Aliyah.’ Most of my Jewish friends are now Sephardic and Mizrahi. Countless of their last names contain ‘Yehudi’ or a version of the Hebrew word for Judea.

In the past few years, there has been an explosion of slogan Zionists. Typically, those who love attention and are not ones who study actual history. At first, it was harmless, just a slew of people who repeatedly said ‘I love Israel’ while doing silly dances, and they were stunningly rewarded by being guest speakers at every single pro-Israel conference run by the alphabet soup of Jewish organizations. I considered them annoying, but perhaps needed hype-men and women.

So who cares if they said Palestinians (not referring to Jews), or Israel AND Palestine, or West Bank, or settlements, or Israel was ‘created’ in 1948 or ‘established,’ or that Jews are White, or that the UN had something to do with the ‘re-birth’ of Israel. Or that all Jews were ‘exiled for 2,000 years’ – all lies, but those are just silly content creators making 10 second videos, who all were seeking their 15 mins of Zionism fame. And then the genocide on October. 7th happened. Suddenly, the slogan Zionists went from say 25 people to hundreds, all parroting each other’s incorrect facts when it now matters most to not uphold lies about Israel, in any environment, especially in a public manner. Now those slogan Zionists are not just being invited to the very same conferences, but also now do podcasts, and TV interviews, spreading the lies far further than ever before. Not because they intend to, but due to a lack of willingness to actually research history from accurate sources.

 

Real (not slogan) Zionists:

• • Know that Palestinians was the colonizer term for Jews who lived IN Israel from 136 AD – 1948.

• • Know that there was and is a Palestine; it was the colonizer term for Judea/Israel during the above 1,812 years of occupation. That saying Palestine does not exist, means Israel does not exist.

• • Call the Arabs in Gaza as they are, Arab occupiers (mostly Egyptians).

• • Call the Arabs in Judea & Samaria also as they are, Arab occupiers (mostly resettled Jordanians, 65% of Jordanians are former Israeli-Arabs who fled Israel in 1948 to help Arab armies kill Jews faster).

• • Know that Jews are not a religion; that faith and religion are different. That it was antisemitic Christians in Europe who first mislabeled Jews as a religion.

• • Know that Jews are indigenous to Israel and literally emerged from the Semitic tribes IN Israel, specifically in the Hill Country (Judea & Samaria) of Canaan.

• • Know that Churchill stole 78% of the Jewish homeland in 1922 and renamed it Transjordan. *And thus Jordan is NOT Palestine, but was part of Palestine.*

• • Know that Israel was not ‘born’ or ‘re-established’ in 1948; it was LIBERATED by brave Jews after a nearly 20 year armed struggle.

• • Know that freeing Gaza from Hamas, but leaving the population intact, will do absolutely nothing as Hamas literally emerged from the occupier population IN Gaza.

• • Know that Hamas did not ‘take over’ Gaza but was elected in a landslide.

• • Know that Bibi was and is a weak leader who should have followed Galant’s orders to fully siege Gaza, starve out the rats, and thus speed up the hostage rescue missions months ago.

• • Understand that ‘Bring Them Home Now’ is insulting as a slogan, as if the IDF does not have the hostages top of mind.

• • Know that reclaiming Gaza fully, eliminating most of the murderous population, and restoring Jewish sovereignty, also fully, to Judea & Samaria, is the only solution to prevent future Jewish genocides.

 

Actual Zionists also do not mix-up dates of when the terrorist organization, the PLO, was first formed, in 1964 in Cairo at the Arab League Summit, and supported by the KGB; not founded by Arafat. Arafat was not made PLO leader until 1969. Arafat was also NEVER the President of ‘Palestine’ – as I see it explained incorrectly by so many slogan Zionists. Arafat was the leader of a terrorist organization, two in fact, first, he created the El-Fatah terrorist group in 1958 in Cairo, and then was appointed leader of the PLO 11 years later.

More importantly, is the false information that the term, ‘Palestinians’ referring falsely to Arabs, started in 1964. Incorrect. There was no need for the KGB to launch Operation SIG (https://tbtnisrael.com/operation-sig/) prior to 1967, as in 1964, Israel had not yet caused the Soviet Union to have a full-on antisemitic hissy fit after winning a war against Arab armies funded by the USSR. That would come only in 1967, when the Soviet Union realized that Israel could not be beat militarily, but only in the court of public opinion.

And finally, actual Zionists know that Jews were not ‘all exiled’ for 2,000 years. Not one year was Jew free in Israel for 4,000 + years. There were Jews who never left, and there were Jewish Diaspora groups constantly returning. Sephardic Jews were the majority for hundreds of years in Israel. Kurdish Jews had their first aliyah wave in the 16th century. Very few times during the 1,812 years of occupation was Jewish immigration completely banned. In fact, until 1882, when the Ottomans stopped Jewish immigration to Palestine, only Jerusalem was blocked for Jews under several occupiers. Not the rest of Israel. That is how Gaza rose to prominence in Jewish history; it became a haven for Jews not allowed in Jerusalem, or Jews escaping plagues in other parts of Israel. Not to mention that Gaza was an important Jewish port after the Romans stopped using it as a slave market from which to haul Jews off across North Africa and Italy.

It is enraging that the 10 soldiers were killed last weekend (8 in Rafah, and 2 in a separate incident in another part of Gaza). and for what? To play terrorist whack a mole while Israel under weak Bibi has no strategy? Who walked back even rebuilding Gush Katif. In fact, this entire past week has been filled with infuriating news that even more brave soldiers were killed throughout Gaza.

Bibi keeps acting weak during this war. He was told to siege Gaza, to starve out the Arab occupiers in Gaza, and that it would make it easier to get back our hostages. Galant wanted that all.

In the beginning of the war, Galant also added to rely heavily on the IAF.

Instead, Bibi kowtowed to the liberals in the antisemitic West, and now we are resorting to playing with soldiers’ lives – and unless Israel is going to fully reclaim Gaza, and eliminate a good portion of the Arab occupiers in Gaza (and eventually Judea & Samaria where a major terrorist attack was just thwarted days ago), there will be more genocides against Jews in Israel.

I understand going after Sinwar and perhaps 50 of the top Hamas operatives. The rest of Gaza should have been taken care solely by air strikes.

Bibi is so afraid of harming ‘civilians’ – no such thing in Gaza, that he is sacrificing soldiers’ lives. The greatest enemy of Jews is not Hamas or Iran, it is the need to ‘please the world.’ Jew haters will hate Israel whether the IDF is overly cautious to its own detriment or not. Same with the egregious aid Israel lets into Gaza. Honest Reporting shared that there is enough food in Gaza so that every occupier there can eat 3,000 calories a day. Does this make any difference to antisemites? Of course not. Israeli leadership is not being ‘moral’ in war time, it is being treasonous against the safety and security of its own people, and the safety of Jews worldwide.

This entire war could have been IAF strikes aside from hostage rescue missions.
