To Be A Jewish Light Unto The Indigenous World

All of the דרכו של היהודי “way of the Jew,” meaning our entire ethno-national relationship with sacred living tradition, can be summarized by one simple Psalm. To be indigenous to a land and obligated to its people (and the ways of its people) is to have a relationship with the land’s god-King, even when openly filled with doubts. It’s a higher level of living that embraces more about life and peoplehood, than rational thinking alone can achieve. We can know, as a people, that our YHWH exists, because YHWH exists in our sacred stories. Likewise, we can doubt YHWH, feel abandoned by YHWH, and have תקווה “hope” that YHWH’s protection is always there.

What we cannot do as a people is worship a book or, in our case, a whole lot of Jewish written scrolls (which, save for rare individuals, are understandable only to Jews). Worshipping a book? Having blind faith in words on a page? That is idolatry, and Jews don’t do idolatry! … Jews do Zionism, indigenous Judean sovereign obligations for the land of Israel and for the people of Israel לדור ודור “from generation to generation.” By surviving free and Independent, we are לאור גוים for “light unto the [Indigenous] nations” of this world! לא אכפת? At least read the Psalm, in order to understand us better!

Tehillim 27.1,3-4,9,12,13-14*

YHWH is my light and my salvation —
Whom should I fear?
YHWH is the sure haven of my life —
Whom could I dread? . . .

Should an army encamp against me,
My mind will know no fear.
Should war break out around me,
I will trust in this.

One thing I ask of YHWH
Only that do I seek
To dwell in His house [Zion, the land]
All the days of my life
To gaze on YHWH’s beauty
And to serve in His palace. [Mikdash, the Temple Mount] . . .

Don’t hide yourself from me!
Don’t thrust Your servant away in anger!
You were my helper
Don’t leave me, don’t abandon me
O God of my salvation! . . .

Don’t feed me to my enemies!
Yes, lying witnesses are rising against me,
With unfair, violent testimony.

If not for the fact that I believe
That I will see YHWH’s own virtue
While still alive —

Hope that YHWH will come!
Courage! Let your mind be strong!
And hope that YHWH will come.

Rabbi Ṭarfon in m. Avot 2:16:

It is not incumbent upon you to complete the task, but you are not free to desist from it.

Now … to the Snapshot:

Every Jew should be proud of our “fighters for the freedom of Israel”! Our decolonization in 1948 upon a portion of the land of Israel literally changed the dynamics between the Jewish people (formerly a dhimmied/ghettoed victimized colonized sub-class) and the historic Arab-European Colonizers of Indigenous Peoples’ lands for Allah-Christ-Marx and caliphates-kings-communism (the social supremacists and appropriators of Indigenous Peoples’ cultures)! We now have a real voice in this world, through our revived national sovereignty upon the land of Israel. We have an Israeli military that not only defends our Indigenous sovereign land from Arab-European Colonial occupation (including the Arab occupied “West Bank”), but can reach *anywhere* upon this world where another Shoah is being attempted against the Jewish people! Section 4&5 of Lehi ideology remind us of this:

“4. THE GOALS
Redemption of the land. Establishment of sovereignty. Revival of the nation.

There is no sovereignty without the redemption of the land, and there is no national revival without sovereignty.

5. EDUCATION
Educate the nation to love freedom and zealously guard Israel’s eternal inheritance. Inculcate the idea that the nation is master to its own fate. Revive the doctrine that “The sword and the book came bound together from heaven” (Midrash Vayikra Rabba 35:8)**”

“Three things were given as a gift to the world, the Torah and the [celestial] lights and the rains. Where does the Torah come from? It was said (Sh’mot 18:18): And he gave it to Moshe as his bride…. And yes they say about the revenge of Edom, it is written (Yechezkel 2:10): And I have given my revenge to Edom [those who stand rebellious against YHWH] by the hand of my people Israel.”

This is a nice effort by an Indigenous Judean woman to artistically blend Colonial Arabic with Canaanite Hebrew! But, I wonder: Is this artistic “olive branch” being reciprocated by Arab artists? And, show me where assimilating Colonial culture, whether Arab or European, has ever led to a positive result for the Jewish people of Judea-Samaria, please? … I love the artistry to the point I want to learn this script! But, the capitulation to a historic Colonizer, settler-occupier of Levant and Southwest Asia Indigenous Peoples’ lands, scares me just as much – for our Indigenous Peoples’ futures. Have not the Assyrian, Kurdish and, especially, *the Jewish people* suffered enough at the hands of Colonial occupiers and appropriators of our Levantine and Asian cultures?! … I wouldn’t worry so, if Arabs-Europeans for Allah-Christ-Marx and caliphates-kings-communism really felt sorry for their histories of racism, land theft, and identity theft. But, the history of this 21st century still repeating every other century of Arab-European supremacy and anti-Indigenous targeting says that they are *not* and has me very doubtful!

#Aravrit – 683 characters and counting. But, just because we can, should we? And, if we do, how should we use this script? Can we use it ceremonially in a way that places Indigenous Peoples into a status *equal* to, not subservient to, Colonial Arab-European cultures? How does this fit into our Jewish people’s effort to decolonize from Colonial mindsets?

Arab/Muslim and European/Christian antisemites like to spit out the “Jews conquered and slaughtered the Canaanites” racist trope on social media to erase Jewish indigeneity to the Levant – showing their deep ignorance of our language and of our ancestral stories, while doing this. Along with this, European colonized and comfortable “good Jews” like to spit out the “no evidence of Jewish mass Exodus from Egypt” trope, while never socially expressing the centuries-long Egyptian occupation of Canaan. Because of this Colonial Arab-European appropriating ignorance, we can all be thankful that history revisionisms do *not* change actual historical reality. So, my well-learned Judean response is as follows:

And yet the Jewish people are the last surviving Canaan tribe indigenous to the Levant, born from the soil of ancient Moab to be the kingdom nation of Israel (north of Moab and upon Judea-Samaria), who still speak the Canaanite Hebrew language to this day and who still preserve the Canaanite pantheon of god names, the Elohim (child gods of creator El), in our Judean-Samarian later written Torah origin myths. Our TaNaKh, our BCE ancestral literatures, teach us that the Jewish people lived with other Canaanite tribes of the Levant *and* posit the “tall tale” that Israel conquered the Canaanites that we lived with, before we eventually became the sole surviving tribe of Canaan.

This conforms to other MENA nation’s Steles about the people of Israel, which all say is indigenous to the Levant. So, why did we Jews write stories of conquest of our own kind? The answer is historically obvious and simple: Because of Assyrian, Babylonian, and Egyptian empires, that are also indigenous to the MENA region, that sought to control wealth by controlling trade routes and lands. Our stories of national conquest had better be as formidable as theirs, seeing that all trade routes go through our Levant land – so better to trade, than to be ruled!

Then came the northerners, the European “Palestinians” (Felishti, a Canaanite Hebrew word that means “foreigners, invaders”) in the forms of Philistines, Greeks, and Romans. They wanted more than just trade! With this came the appropriation of our Indigenous Judean culture and partial identity theft by later Roman Aegean northerners, who created a Colonial religion for Christ-Marx and kings-capitalism-communism, by which to rule the entire world in European Christian racial supremacy. Yes, Christianity invented geographical based skin color racism as a founding doctrine of European Christianity (study the writings of Origen of Alexandria, Irenaeus, Tertullian, St Augustine, etc.).

Then came the southerners, the Arabian “Palestinians” (Felishti, the “foreigners, invaders”) in the form of Muslims, Arabs of Arabia who had converted in Mecca to Muhammad’s created Colonial religion for Allah-Marx and caliphates-communism. Of course, like Christianity, based in Muhammad’s appropriations of Indigenous Judean culture and rituals, by which to rule the world in Arab Muslim racial supremacy. Thus, like Christianity did in Europe, Islam usurped Arabian indigenous ethno-religion and ancestors with Colonial religion based in appropriating Jewish ancestors. Now, in the recent mid 20th century CE, Arabs finally took to the Christian claim of being the *new* ancient Canaanite Jewish “indigenous” of our Levant land, though they do not speak our Canaanite Hebrew (rather Colonial Arabic), thus now completing their appropriation of our Indigenous culture with full on identity theft!

Yet, here we Jews are! Still living upon our ancestral land – now partially decolonized – still speaking our Canaanite Hebrew language, still fulfilling our sacred land obligations, still speaking the Canaanite god names, and still resolute to keep our Tziyon, “Zion,” fully Jewish in sovereignty.

Yes! Despite the continued Colonial oppression upon our Judean nation’s land – our having to see daily their Colonial Arab’s “Mount Rushmore” desecration of our land, the al-Aqsa mosque, sitting supremacistly on top of an Indigenous People’s most sacred land area, the Temple Mount. Whether Arab or European, Colonialism is the same on both continents – it is the racist desecration of land and erasure of Indigenous history by Arab-European religious settler-occupations! Real history is hated by *both* Colonial Arabs and Colonial Europeans for Allah-Christ-Marx and caliphates-kings-communism! It must be their self-justifying revisionist history, otherwise they don’t have *impunity* for all the atrocities these Arabs-Europeans have committed against Indigenous Peoples upon this planet – and are *still* committing to this day! Not one Indigenous nation, not even Israel, is free from Colonial Arab-European settler-occupiers upon our lands.

Snapshots: “I will argue that the Exodus is a cultural memory of a historical era that really happened and for which there is (literally) tons of evidence.” And, it is shared l’dor v’dor, generation to generation, by Jews in a mythical form of history that informs and reminds the Jewish people about our Levantine people’s relationship with other nations upon this Earth!

Marvel Hollywood vows,… LOL!

“Institute for Middle East Understanding, a pro-Palestinian organization based in the US, said Marvel employed “a slew of racist, anti-Muslim stereotypes and dehumanizing depictions of Palestinians, all while glorifying Israeli military violence.” “Marvel is promoting Israel’s violence against Palestinians and enabling the continued oppression of millions of Palestinians living under Israel’s authoritarian military rule,” IMEU said.”

Arabs Muslims are the *Colonizers* of Indigenous Peoples’ lands for Allah-Marx and caliphates-communism! Just ask the Assyrian, Kurdish, Druze, Bedouin, and Jewish people of the Levant and Southwest Asia! JUST LIKE European Christians are Colonizers for Christ-Marx and kings-capitalism-communism everywhere else! When all you know about your *Arab “Palestinian”* self is based in a political terrorism lie, created by the KGB-PLO alliance in 1964, then how do you know that you were taught a lie?!

The “Palestinian” Arabs are the occupiers of Judea-Samaria, oppressing the *sovereign land of rights* of Jews Indigenous to Judea-Samaria! Since the Jordanian-Egyptian 18+ year occupation of 1948 decolonized Israel (the Arab-created “nakba” to “naksa” period), the Colonial Arabs have been complaining to Colonial Europeans that the Jewish people’s forcible decolonization is “racism” against the historic Arab Muslims and European Christians who *occupied* our land in the names of Allah-Christ-Marx and caliphates-kings-communism.

These non-citizen “Palestinian” Arabs are claiming to be indigenous to Judea and Samaria, though only the Jewish people have lived non-stop in the land and speak the Canaanite Hebrew. They are lying to themselves and everyone, trying desperately to paint themselves as victims of “Colonial racism”! They want the Jewish Indigenous nation to leave, but our colonization is now over! We Jews only need the “Palestinian” Arab racist anti-Indigenous occupation of our Judean land to come to an end. And this will only happen when the Colonial Arabs-Europeans do something about *their* created “Palestinian” land-squatting problem!

If we, the Jewish people of the land of Israel, do anything to expel those Arab occupiers (self-named “Palestinians”) who are resisting our Indigenous nation’s existence, there are 22 Colonial Arab-created nations surrounding our Taiwan size nation that would “luv” for our extreme minority to be so foolish in their presence. It would be the excuse for yet another attempted Shoah/Holocaust (the extinction of the Jewish race, the “Jew problem” in this world), which will include with us the 2.5 million Arab, Druze, and Bedouin citizens of Israel who bleed daily with Jews for our Indigenous Judean survival upon the land of Israel!

My response to the IMEU and every other racist Colonial organization for Allah-Christ-Marx and caliphates-kings-communism upon Judea-Samaria and any other occupied Indigenous Nation’s land: We Jews born in the land of Israel are צבר/צברם (tzabar/tzabarim) “Sabra,” whether USA Hollywood recognizes this is not! Hollywood glorifying historic “Palestinian” Arab land-thieves as victims of *their* occupied Indigenous people and, in doing so, disrespecting indigenous Sabra changes *absolutely nothing* about our Jewish nation’s decolonized status. Colonials always lie to themselves, both Arab and European! So,…

Five thousand Jewish women and men waged a two decades war against one hundred thousand occupying British soldiers and their militarized Arabs in the 1930s-40s for our Indigenous Judean decolonization, and actually *won* our Independence. Therefore, we Jews Indigenous to Judea-Samaria *will* survive your 1964 KGB-PLO created “Palestinian people” long-term settler-occupation force upon our 1948 decolonized Jewish ancestral land, Colonial Arabs-Europeans! The Jewish people will *no longer* be your victimized dhimmi, no matter how many antisemitic resolutions you enact at the United (Arab-European Colonial) Nations and no matter how many lies you spread about us on social media.

May the Kurdish people be next to decolonize from “Syrian” and “Iraqi” Arab occupational rule of Kurdistan! The days of Allah-Christ-Marx and caliphates-kings-communism suppression, oppression, and outright erasure of surviving Indigenous Peoples, while settler-occupying upon our Indigenous Peoples’ lands, is coming to an end, Arabs-Europeans! We will *not* prostitute ourselves to your Colonial gods, cultures, and determinations that we give up our identities-lands and lose our self-determining futures.

I am a realist and I believe in miracles! Peace between Arabs and Jews is possible! It comes with speaking each other’s language and learning from each other along the way. … Many Palestinian Arabs do know that the Jewish people are indigenous to Judea-Samaria. But Palestinian Arab society forces them to remain silent. Honest Palestinians must continue the racist lies about the Jewish people. Their guilt in lying is a sin against Allah/Eloah. Why must they sin? Instead of occupying Judea-Samaria, be good citizens of Israel! We all want peace and freedom. Jews must learn Arabic! Arabs must learn Ivrit (Hebrew)! And, instead of appropriating Indigenous cultures, Arabs-Europeans, give credit where credit is due!

Folks, “good Jew” Jew’canos like Yaakov Shapiro and Shlomo Sand do not speak for Jews Indigenous to Judea-Samaria. Judaism, Judea-people-ism, is *not* just a mere racist colonizing religion like Islam and Christianity! The Jewish people are the Indigenous People of the land of Israel, always have been and always will be, with an ethno-religion that informs our Indigenous identity as a people. No colonized mind (not even a Jew’cano) has a right to speak for Jews who never left Israel, despite 1,400 years of genocidal violence and oppression by Colonial Arabs-Europeans for Allah-Christ-Marx and caliphates-kings-communism, nor for Jews living in the Southwest Asia and North African Diasporas before returning to Israel (the majority of Israel’s Jewish population). Not even for the Jewish families trapped in places like Iran, who are trying to survive under an extreme Islamic tyranny – and cannot speak for themselves publicly without being put to death for it!

Modern Zionism began with my MENA Jewish families, even earlier than the 1882 flights by foot of MENA Jews back to Israel – to avoid violence and genocide, as the Colonial Arabs-Europeans reconquered the entire Middle East for politically motivated land divisions. And we MENA Jews encouraged Jews ghettoed and victimized in Europe to return, as well. Very few did, but Arab-European societies insist repeatedly and wrongfully – ahistorically – that Zionism began in Europe (from Christian influence) a decade later among Ashkenazi Jews.

Conveniently for today’s Arab and European antisemites, this narrative that erases MENA Jewish Zionist history is propagated on social medias to declare Jews as outsiders and invaders of our land
of Israel. Modern Zionism as a movement started with the Arab persecution of MENA Jews in Yemen in the 1880’s, forcing a mass refugee return to Israel for survival. Denying historical reality for lies that are presented as facts, does not change historical reality itself. It just makes you a liar, to lie about reality. Easily verifiable historical facts really do matter, folks! Let’s review three:

The European Christians came first for Christ and kings, slaughtered half the Jewish people of Israel and enslaved a third of the rest, segregated those taken north into Europe by placing us in Ghettos (invented in Europe for the Jew problem), repeatedly murdered whole communities of Jews when Europeans needed to punish someone for their self-created problems, and eventually decided to outright exterminate “the Jewish race” with the help of the Arab Muslims.

The Arab Muslims came second up from down south for Allah and caliphates, forced many of the Jewish families off of our lands and into the cities, forced us to accept being slapped and humiliated as we paid our ‘we Arabs won’t kill you today’ protection taxes for being born Jewish, made to publicly wear identifying markers on our clothing like the Star of David (where do you think Hitler got this idea from!), murdered whole families or communities of Jews when the Sheikh allowed antisemite Arabs to express their social grievances out on Jews, and joined the Nazis in this European-Arab bid to just outright exterminate the entire Jewish race from this planet.

The 1964 KGB-PLO created “Palestinian people” who are setter-occupying the “West Bank” and Gaza parts of our 1948 decolonized land of Israel are there only to force the Jewish people out of our self-sovereignty and back into victimized dhimmi status under Arab Colonial rule. And they gaslight the entire social world with history revisionism and propaganda lies and distortions to achieve this long-term settler-occupation force goal! Worse, the Colonial United (Arab-European) Nations insists on not shaming the Colonial “Palestinians” for their nakba to naksa 18+ year land-grab of parts of Judea-Samaria and present settler-occupation, because it would mean admitting that Colonial behaviors are wrong in this world.

In the Arab-European supremacist mindset, it is enough already that anti-Colonial Israel forced our Indigenous reestablished sovereignty upon Judea-Samaria in 1948 against the will of the occupying Colonial powers, so it is Israel that must capitulate and give up land to the 1964 KGB-PLO created “Palestinian people” occupation force of the land of Israel. They call it a “two state solution,” that neither Jews Indigenous to Judea-Samaria nor Colonial “Palestinian” Arabs want! 2.5 million Israeli Arab, Druze and Bedouin citizens of Israel also overwhelmingly agree with the Jewish people’s position. Colonial powers of the world want either a “two-state” or “one Arab state” solution to our Jewish decolonization!

The Jewish people are speaking loudly *together* to the colonized world that is echoing the Colonial Arab-European antisemitic racisms and xenophobias used to keep Indigenous Peoples weak and colonized! “Never Again” is *not* a slogan, but a call to action for every Jew to stand publicly together against *anti-Indigenous racism*, *Colonial supremacy*, and *settler-occupation of Indigenous Peoples’ lands* around this world! If the Jewish people can successfully decolonize upon *our* ancestral land, then all Indigenous Peoples can do so, as well. But, only if the Jewish people stand up and fight together for *our* Zionism!

EVERY Jewish child upon this planet needs to watch the Ken Burn’s documentary “The U.S. and the Holocaust” and understand *why* we Jews must NEVER forget! Not just for the Jewish people’s sake, but for the sake of all minority populations faced with supremacist hatred, scapegoating, and desires by the powerful to commit genocide. The behaviors of Germans and the United States and the Arab Colonial nations (that allied with the Nazis to bring the Holocaust into the Middle East and Africa) during the World War II is *not* an isolated event, never to be repeated. It is a series of attempts by privileged humanity to mass exterminate those humans who we feel are undesirable and not worthy of life, thus blame for our social problems.

The mass murder of over 6 million Jews and even more murders of gypsies, homosexuals, and political opponents with these Jews is the worst mass extermination event in human history, thus far. But, the *next* World War attempt is already growing into a movement out of our control, and it will be far worse! So history is teaching us. Jewish assimilation into Colonial Arab-European cultures will not save our people from this! History repeatedly teaches us this, too. We must *prevent* the next Shoah, before it begins, by remembering! So, Jews everywhere, watch this documentary *with your children*, please! You and they need to learn.
