Jewish Domination? Occupation More Likely
By Gilad Atzmon
The recent attack on Free Gaza’s Greta Berlin and Colonel Ann Wright suggest that we have crossed a red line — Jewish domination within the Palestinian solidarity movement belongs to the past. We are now, it seems, under Zionist occupation, and we are subject to all the symptoms of Israeli abuse and Zionist brutality.
The expulsions, the exclusions and the cleansings that are inherent within Zionism, Israeli and Jewish politics, are now alive and kicking within the Palestinian solidarity movement itself. On a daily basis we are notified about more and more people who ‘must be’ expelled from the ‘movement’: earlier this year we learned that the Palestinian poet and writer Nahida Izzat had first been harassed and later expelled from her local Palestinian solidarity group by a Liverpool Jewish activists’ gang. Next, Dr Francis Clark Lowes, former Chairman of the UK PSC was expelled from the organisation, for allegedly being an ‘Anti Semite’ and a ‘holocaust denier’. Norman Finkelstein, probably the leading pro Palestinian Jewish scholar, has also been subjected to repeated smears and attempts at character assassination for voicing some legitimate criticisms re BDS being a cult, and recently, the greatly admired Greta Berlin, co-founder of Free Gaza, has also been subjected to harassment and abuse in the last few weeks. Berlin was labeled ‘an anti Semite’ and ‘a Holocaust Denier’ — and yet, up until the present time, there has not been a shred of evidence provided by her detractors to support such accusations. And now, the respected peace activist Colonel Ann Wright has also been ‘purged’, and expelled from the current attempt to break the siege on Gaza – simply for being associated with Mrs Berlin. The pianist and conductor Daniel Barenboim is also subject to a BDS boycott. And six months ago I too, faced a call for a disavowal – by people who were foolish enough to confess that they had not even read a single line of my work.
The message here is clear – Some elements within the Palestinian solidarity movement have obviously adopted the most repellent and brutal Zionist symptoms, and we are now engaged, caught up in, and beset by a sinister series of expulsions, purges, crude witch hunts, exclusions, smears, character defamations and cleansings.
Palestinian Authority– The Palestinian authority was formed by Israel in order to ‘maintain order’ within the occupied territories. We are fully aware of the PA’s difficult and problematic role in Palestine – but in recent years we have also become familiar with a new type of exilic Palestinian ‘authority’: I refer here to those few Palestinians who are in place to maintain the solidarity movement as ‘a Kosher haven’. In the last six months, some exiled Palestinians have been involved in numerous ‘targeted character assassinations’ of some of our most valued leading activists and scholars. In the last month we saw Solidarity activists openly joining forces and collaborating with the darkest Zionist forces against Greta Berlin, Ann Wright, Ken O’Keefe, Norman Finkelstein, and myself amongst others.
Segregation – Like in occupied Palestine (or ‘apartheid’ Israel, if you prefer), the solidarity movement is now clearly a segregated society: we can witness a clear division between the ‘Jews only’ groups (racially driven and tribally oriented), and the ‘Palestinians only’ groups (ethnically segregated). And then there is the general solidarity activist network, that still insists to promote those consistent humanist values and goals of inclusivity and universality that it it has always upheld.
Espionage –Recent Jewish ‘progressive’ campaigns against Berlin and Colonel Wright have proved that, like Hasbara agents and Mossad, some of the so-called ‘anti’ Zionist Jewish organisations within our movement have been spying and tracking our moves, our private life, and even our social network activity. They also use Hasbara disinformation and spin tactics in order to ruin the names of those who ‘got too close to the bone’ i.e. criticising Jewish power.
I have been monitoring these Hasbara tactics for more than a while and I have seen these tactics being used by some marginal Sayanim individuals within the movement. But I was slightly disappointed to find out that slander, smear and abuse are now increasingly openly used by leading solidarity outlets such as Mondoweiss and Electronic Intifada.
The Verdict Is Clear
We are not a ‘solidarity’ movement anymore, for we have become foreign to the notion of solidarity as well as empathy.
But this is not necessarily entirely bad news. Being subject to vile Zionist occupation, we had better urgently be in solidarity with ourselves — for we are all Palestinians now. We are abused by Israel, by its Sayanim, and by their collaborators.
I guess that we had better liberate ourselves first. And such an aspiration would certainly give the concept of Palestinian resistance a new meaning and dimension.

Excellent factual analysis Gilad Atzmon. Seems that the formula: “If you can’t buy them, blackmail them, and if they are not “blackmailable”, set them up to be so”, has worked well for the Zios, not only in Palestine, against Palestinians and non-Palestinians, but in the USA and Europe against all kind of People, in order to press forward Israel’s agenda.
Above mentioned modus operandi has been shrewdly, repetitively and successfully used to prevent honest men and women from voicing any criticism against Israel and its affiliated NGOs. It seems that at last it has lost its leverage for being exposed by courageous people, like yourself.
Infiltration of Human Rights Organizations has been the rule too. But things are changing thanks to a new awareness about who is behind the deception and the manipulation worldwide, why and who profits from the misery and the suffering brought upon innocent people, by members of the most successful Mafia of all times.

It was Lenin who said: “If you want to control the opposition party – you must also be the opposition party …”
A new generation of zionists using the same old tactics.
indeed, controlled opposition..
It isn’t the said Holocaust people deny… It is the Numbers.
Under the Haavara Agreement it seems Hitler had a cozy relationship with the Zionist’s as did Hitler’s Col. That traveled with the Zionist’s to Palestine. It seems much came to an end in 1939.
So this is what I find interesting, 1939-1945 (Liberation) that some want others to believe that in 6 years, 365 X 6 = 2190 Days, 6,000,000 / 2190 = 2739.7 Jew’s that would have had to have been (Burned) i.e. Holocaust’ed daily while Hitler was fighting TWO FRONTS and the time it takes to Incinerate a human body. Then only 6 Camp’s were alleged to have done this. So the Numbers just don’t fit.
Yet many have seen the videos of those being Shot and falling into mass graves. Yet still they don’t show which is a Jewish person, a Jehovah’s Witness, Homosexual and Others that were also killed. Naked people running to their Graves sides to be shot is horrible. Yet who was who?
So it is not the Death’s of Jew’s that people dispute, Only the Numbers and how they died. On Phil Danahue a leading Jewish historian even admitted that Jew’s were NOT made into Soap. As well as the Trial in Canada that many who wrote books on the Holocaust did so on Hearsay evidence, Never witnessed the said Gassing or Burning of anyone.
One thing is interesting about all this, If the Viet Nam war a LIE and 2 to 3 Million Viet Cong were Slaughtered for them LIES, Should anyone question those lies be also be hunted down by groups that want to continue to present the Viet Nam war as something the US just had to do? a Police Action?
All Wars are by Deception. Like watching a FSA Rebel’s fighter carrying his POOR CHILD away from a Bombing. I have video’s that show how MURDEROUS these Rebel Fighters are in killing Citizen’s that is to be blamed on Assad. Or other rumors of thousands killed, yet no Pictures. No PROOF. NOTHING. War is PROPAGANDA.
Excellent article.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Jewish Zionists use money and blackmail to get their way with the Palestinian movement. They probably have extremely embarrassing video tape of members in the Palestinian movement with Israeli Swallows and Ravens. They probably also have extremely embarrassing video tape of feckless Palestinian leaders. The Israel motto is if want can’t blackmail you we can’t trust you. Just ask Obama.
Due to money and blackmail I live in the United States of Israel.
Brian, search for the work of Daniel Mabsout.. he will give you the numbers,, Soros, EU, BDS ..Palestinian NGOs it is pretty embarrassing …
Scapegoating much. How about looking out for the Palestinian interests so called pro Palestinians. 64 years is a long time to be occupied and living in exile.
