The sad reality of many of my articles over the years seems to have become a definitive, sad certainty. The mantra of the
two-state-solution and the slogan “two states for two peoples” now appear to be
an impossibility. Following the last speech by U.S. Secretary
of State John Kerry on the Middle-East, Netanyahu’s distant
echo
from Jerusalem could be heard: “Israel does not need instructions from outside
for peace.” And the right-wing minister
of education Bennet of the Settler Party said: “On 20 January Palestine will be
taken off the agenda.” Trump sent his regards to the Jewish Führer
who
was already wishfully waiting for them. Netanyahu was even personally invited
to attend the swearing-in ceremony of Trump as U.S. President in Washington.
Following Trump’s election, Netanyahu work towards the the final stage of the
Zionist land grab, but will he pursue Bennett’s proposal and start annexation
of all the occupied West Bank?

Has it not been a long time since Palestine disappeared from
the agenda of the international community of states which always gives so much
importance to compliance with the international law? What did Kerry achieve in
the end with his embittered speech? Like all its predecessors, the Obama
Administration is facing the ruins of mistaken politics towards its precious
favourite ally Israel.

Administration is facing the ruins of mistaken politics towards its precious
favourite ally Israel.
In his speech, Kerry passionately advocated the two-state
solution by criticising Israel heavily, but this last appeal seems more than
helpless, after years of failed attempts to stop the illegal Jewish occupation
in Palestine. Neither his statement that “Israel is driven by an extremist element,” nor that Israel does not want peace, but the
land, is new, because Zionism’s main aim — grabbing
land for “Eretz Israel” — has been known since the foundation
of the state. And who made all this possible? Among others, the billions of U.S.
dollars in aid have made the “Jewish State” what it is today. Kerry’s proposals
for the demarcation and separation of Jerusalem are old hat, but were never
accepted by Israeli governments. So this “Kerry Ketchup” speech
has
come too late and will ultimately remain inconsequential.

The “Jewish State” was fed to a right-wing fascist regime
which presents itself as the “only Democracy in the Middle East” and Western
stronghold against Muslim terrorists (the Arabic world), so that it can go on
violating international law with its illegal occupation of Palestine. Time and
and again we are faced with the deception of a “Jewish State” that is Jewish
and democratic. A “Jewish State” based on Judaic Torah Laws, a “Great
Israel” belonging to the “elected Jewish people” and having an indestructible
pact with God until eternity. With such a “divine” argument, they feel they are
without competitors and immune to all political
arguments.

The infamous Likud (UN) culture minister Miri Regev has
already proposed that Kerry divides Washington instead of Jerusalem and
stressed that “Jerusalem is the capital of Israel and has been the capital of
Israel for 3000 years, and it will remain so for the next 3000 years.” This is
the minister who tries to bring Israeli artists to their senses by a quasi-ban
on employment if they refuse to perform in illegal settlements, and carries out
the kind of cultural censorship that is known only in
dictatorships. Regev shows us precisely the way of this ominous politics that
rushes a free Palestine into disaster. In the meantime, the Minister of Justice
Ayelet Shaked and the Minister for Public Security, Gilad Erdan, would like to
introduce a new law to be able to delete “rabble-rousing” posts on Facebook, youtube
and other social media to silence negative criticism. The implication being
that it is not the illegal occupation of Palestine — which does not exist
according to Israeli politicians — and the hopelessness and denigration of the
Palestinian youth that is responsible for the resistance movement of the
Palestinians, but the “murderous incitement” on the internet. And the Zionist
world view is exactly that simple. In the end, Shaked is the expert for
hate-based posts on Facebook with a recent claim to not only kill the Palestinian “terrorists,”
but also their mothers so as to prevent them having more small snakes!
And despite such a horrible statement, the German Minister of Justice Maas (of
the German Socialist Party) organises a conference in a cosy agreement with
Shaked on the the subject of “Democracy
and Constitutional State!”

Apart from many such racist statements, Shaked’s sentiments
were shared by the settler rabbis whose spokesmen designated Kerry as the “worst”
ever U.S. Secretary of State, and accused the Obama Administration of “having
planted a knife into the back” of Israel, its closest
ally. However, there is no need to discuss that, because it is the “Jewish dog”
that bites the U.S. master’s
hand.
The Obama administration has again increased arms and financial support to the
Jewish State!

By its ultra-religious nationalism the “Jewish State” became
a “God State”: outbraving all “enemies” in the world; being always right when
it says that human rights violations and the illegal occupation of Palestine do
not exist; and justifying its crimes
against humanity with beliefs in being the elected people and the holocaust,
which means that all divine and earthly values are on its side.

With decades of illegal occupation in Palestine, these
Jewish fundamentalists have maintained the denial of a two-state solution which
is already buried. Netanyahu and many of his predecessors were helped by the
time-factor and the more than reticent critics of the “community of values” who
were easy to cope with. They always knew that those critics were worthless
because Germany has always repeated its solidarity with the Jewish State
because of its “particular” relationship. So if the German Minister for
Foreign Affairs Steinmeier, in agreement with Chancellor Merkel, had positively
judged Kerry’s speech and criticised settlement policies, we could only shake
our head in the face of such hypocrisy.

How long will Netanyahu despite of all these disputes be
able to pride himself in relying upon Merkel and Berlin as the most important
European partner? In fact, in Germany we have experienced the replacement of anti-Semitism by a wave of philo-Semitism
led by Merkel and politicians of
virtually all parties. United in the struggle against “Islamic terrorism” which
causes a racist atmosphere never experienced before, as was witnessed in the
New Year’s Eve in Cologne. This new kind of precautionary attempt to avoid
crimes should make us more than concerned. Today it is the term “Nafri” used by
German police officers to talk about Northern-African chronic offenders,
showing a “basic aggressiveness,” tomorrow it will be the enemy of the state,
like for example critics of Israel. So if Merkel in her New Year speech speaks
about a new German Führung (leadership) in Europe, we will have to ask
ourselves where it will lead? The orations peppered with increasing racist
aggressiveness of right-wing politicians from CDU/CSU to AfD should be of
serious concern for us.

Do we want to take the leadership in military operations and
in the so called war on terror and renounce our freedom to get so called
security? Is this our desired result of our “Christian-Jewish guiding culture”?
No, thanks! It is enough with the German reason of state for the security of
Israel, it is enough with political sermons from Gauck to Merkel, among others.
Yes, we will not renounce to our freedom. And it is worth fighting for this in
2017, if the bell of the Führer tolls.
