Abba Eban stated that "If Algeria introduced a resolution [at the UN] declaring that the earth was flat and that Israel had flattened it, it would pass by a vote of 164 to 13 with 26 abstentions."
Antisemitic conspiracy theories go back two thousand years or more. In his book "Anti-Judaism," David Nirenberg reports a conspiracy theory from Alexandria in Egypt from before the Christian era, stating that Jews kidnap, fatten up and eat a non-Jew for religious reasons every year. I don't know how to fight something so old and embedded in Western society -- and now global society, as 7 October took antisemitism to places that have essentially no Jews and no history of antisemitism, like China.
Excellent piece, Lucy. We can’t “fight” the proliferation of these conspiracy theories, but we can keep writing about them to expose the contradictions and the utter nonsense they stem from. Keep doing what you’re doing!
Compelling reading. Thank you. And the conclusion is dark. I am of the same opinion - I do not see a way, at least not a quick and easy one, to overwhelm this tsunami of hatred. Everyone close to me says: “Don’t get fixated on negative. Read something else”. But when the whole world is thirsty for our blood and us dying to get rid of Israel and Jews, it crosses the line from a conspiracy theory, which suggests fringes of the society, to something much bigger. To be honest, what adds to the feeling of powerlessness and suffocation is the awareness that we are locked in a bubble here, on Substack: we subsciribr to the same people and like the same posts. Even the most successful do not have massive following. I would like to take an active part in a struggle, but I have a vague notion of how. What is next?
As always a great article. The humour with which you describe a bonkers world offers much needed relief. I have been saying for a long time that most of the people in the world truly manifest mental illness when they believe and protest that Israel is to blame for everything wrong in the world. But then there are the Muslims that really believe to the deepest part of the hateful hearts, Sunni and Shia alike, that the Jews are their problem. Their passionately diseased minds make them truly certifiable. CHABAD simplifies how to deal with such stark raving mad darkness. Focus on the light. Bring more light into the world. But this is so impossibly difficult for those Israelis who have witnessed the deepest darkness. Thank you again for the article and the humour. I'm going to throw it in the face of every brain dead antizionist i encounter.
"Everyone seems to have lost their minds. . . .It feels like we have crossed some invisible threshold into a place I don’t know we’ll ever be able to come back from." This is exactly the way I, a US citizen and a non-Jew, feel about everything these days. In the United States we are dealing with not only increasing anti-semitism and increasing Islamization, but what feels like the destruction of our entire culture. I understand the left/progressives' adopting anti-semitism, but the right. . . . "Anti-semitism" should be classified as a mental illness. Western culture is based on Judaeo-Christian values, which are excellent values.
I love Lucy's clarity of mind reflected in her clarity of writing, so intelligent and insightful. Sometimes I feel the lessons I learned from kayaking and from cycling seem the best and least stressful path. Paddle with the current, not against, cycle with the wind to your back, not against the wind, go with the flow.
So when it comes to Cueta, of course the Jews were behind it, and not just Israel. We operate and control world events from every nation, every nook and cranny, and have inserted Jews in positions of power posing as atheists, Christians, Muslims, even Hindu, Shinto, and Buddhists. You see us behind every bush because we are behind every bush.
A Spanish court rendered a ruling making it more difficult to remove immigrants, lawful or not, from Spain, so Muslims poured into Cueta. But why did the Spanish court render such a ruling? Surely it was because of Jewish influence, as we knew the result would be what happened in Cueta.
candace owens, tucker carlson, tools of the Jews and agents of Mossad, hiding in plain sight. alex jones was an original supporter of Laura Loomer. Don't be fooled by alex jones, another Mossad operative.
Don't allow yourself to become paranoid my friends, that is what the Jews want. If you hate them, it is because that is what they want. It sustains the Jew, just ask the devil.
Best way to treat the Jews is to ignore or love them, do no violence to them, act as if you take no heed of their schemes and conspiracies, it will confuse and befuddle them.
Am I speaking as a Jew, to other Jews, or to gentiles? You be the judge and go with the flow.
Be not like Tom Joad's grandfather in John Steinbeck's classic novel, the Grapes of Wrath, so it cannot be said of you, “He always battled against the wind.”
The whole idea Israel had anything to do with the Ceuta migrant uprising is totally bonkers! Trump and Bibi pushed Morocco to loosen immigration restrictions to stick it to Spain?! What nonsense! This is just the same old antisemitic conspiracy theories we’ve been dealing with for centuries just in a different form. “Israel did it!” or “the Zionists did it!” is a more politically correct way to say “the Jews did it!” The Nazis did it, the Soviets did it and now Jihadists and their leftist allies are doing it. Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Ana Kasparian, Cenk Uygur, Dave Smith, Alex Jones, and all the usual suspects will come out of the woodwork and repeat it. I’m sure we’ll see Ilan Pappe, Norman Finkelstein or Rashid Khalid write articles on it online. I’m sure Iran and their Islamist proxies will embrace it. This is because all these parties hate the Jewish people and the Jewish state and want to see the former suffer and the latter be destroyed.
Israel Derangement Syndrome is officially now a thing! Millions of people all over the world suffer from it, including anti-Zionist Jews who repeat antisemitic stereotypes, blood libels and conspiracy theories without any idea they are doing so because they are so stupid. I wouldn’t be surprised to see someday soon, Tucker Carlson doing an episode of his show on how Israel controls the weather, created the AIDS virus or is responsible for the sinking of the Titanic! I can’t wait to read Mehdi Hasan’s latest article in The Guardian where he accuses Israel of being behind the COVID-19 Pandemic or Israel providing medical care to Palestinian and Arab children is a “secret anti-Muslim conspiracy.” I look forward to Candace Owens’ upcoming documentary on how Israel has secret space stations on Mars or is in cahoots with the lizard men. Oy vey! What will these crazy people think up next! They sound just like Alex Jones and David Icke. Just like them! If you listen to Tucker Carlson or Candace Owens, you might as well be listening to Info Wars or reading Holocaust denial books.
As to the situation in Spain, immigration to Spain in of itself is NOT a bad thing. Nor do I have any issue with Spain being a multicultural country or Asians, Africans, Arabs, Persians, or Latinos coming to live in Spain as long as they assimilate, learn the Spanish language, accept the host country’s laws and values, work hard, pull their own weight, pay their taxes, and are patriotic Spaniards. However, mass third world immigration to Spain is dangerous, destabilizing, unsustainable, and is a Trojan horse for Islamists to invade Spain just as their ancestors did centuries ago. Lucy expertly and effortlessly recounts that history here. Most of these migrants by the way are young or middle aged men who do not have any women or children with them. Most of them are penniless and have no skills. It’s time for drastic action to be taken. Pedro Sanchez and the current governing coalition must go! Albert Nunez Feijoo must ascend to become Spanish Prime Minister. Spain must build a huge border fence and put the Spanish Army on its borders. The Spanish Navy will patrol the seas and have men sailing near the beaches to catch illegal immigrants and migrants. The laws will be changed and all migrants will be deported back to Morocco. Morocco and Spain will sign a treaty to stop the flow of migrants. Spain will withdraw from the 1985 Schengen Treaty immediately. Spain should also consider a total pull out from the EU. Mass deportations of illegal immigrants will be carried out. Spain will push assimilation hard to newcomers. All new immigrants will take mandatory classes on the Spanish language, Spanish culture and history, how to treat Spanish women, the Holocaust, and Spanish customs. They must pass a rigorous test to become Spanish citizens and sign a declaration promising to uphold the laws and values of Spain. If they violate it, they can be deported. The Spanish Air Force will patrol the skies looking for illegal immigrants and migrants.
Spain will quadruple the police presence in Jewish communities. The Spanish government will create a department that specializes in tracking antisemitic incidents. An antisemitism czar will be appointed to run it. Spain will sign a defense pact with Israel and immediately withdraw its recognition of a Palestinian state. Migrant criminals will be deported post haste. Spain will increase birth rates, restore the nuclear family, increase church attendance, and will embrace its Christian heritage and all it has achieved. Children will be taught about the Islamic conquest of Spain, Spaniards being held as slaves by Arabs and Berbers and the Reconquista in school. Spain will proudly be a Christian and multicultural nation. A robust white ethnic Spanish demographic majority will be built in Spain while vibrant minority communities will be welcomed and celebrated. Spain can celebrate its connection to Christian civilization while also embracing and accepting people of all religions. You can do both and pretending you can’t is enforcing a dangerous false binary. Spain needs to tell the full story of its history both the wars fought against the Moors AND the story of coexistence between Christians, Jews and Muslims. Spain can be saved absolutely, but it will take drastic action being taken. I think Spain should limit immigration to 100,000 people or less a year. Their focus should be high-skilled immigration. Europeans and Latinos should be prioritized as they are the most culturally and linguistically adjacent. They should also revamp their vetting process and make it expensive for folks to travel from the Middle East to Spain.
I partially blame Israel for the "Israel did it" conspiracy mindset because it has repeatedly pulled off operations that seem almost unbelievable. The capture of Adolf Eichmann in Argentina in 1960, the Entebbe operation in 1976, and the exploding pager operation in Lebanon in 2024 have all reinforced the perception that Israel is capable of extraordinarily sophisticated covert actions...
I like Thomas Sowell and much of what he has to say but I am pretty clear in my mind why people hate the jews..and it is not because they are rich or because they are poor, because they are white or because they are not white and it also isn't because israel is "capable of extraordinary sophisticated actions" ( and why wouldn't they? Unlike much of the middle east ..most Israelis are well educated and from a free society.) It is not for anything jews did or didn't do, can or cannot do. I am afraid Sowell here is speaking of why people he is aware of hate jews but not of all jew haters. Kudos you found a clip and managed to use the "argument from authority" but I tend to do my own observations and draw my own conclusions
Vast majority of people who hate jews come from either islamic or historically christian societies..all the one god religion based cultures. The whole one godbelief is rooted in two very basic aspects of human nature...envy and Ego. The jews were the original one god believers. Both Christianity and Islam stole much of their religion from the jews..they believe(d) also in the same one god. The problem is they took much of the jewish belief to "substantiate" the veracity of their own belief. Only thing is..that very god they claim to follow ..they know has stated the jews are "his chosen people". Thus they psychologically run into a problem inspired by the very same Ego and envy and as long as jews exist they are a constant reminder of said psychological issue. Subconsciously they therefor feel if the jews no longer exist..it becomes easier to claim "we"are our "gods" chosen people.
This does of course gets exasperated everytime jews are succesfull or clever or manage to survive all that murderous intent from the jewhaters..that subconsciously not only reminds them of that line in their ( or rather jewish torah) but also kind of fuels the envy it might be true.
Just start an argument with a jewhater and see how quickly the "chosen"reference gets dropped as an insult.
Note also there is practically no homegrown antisemitism in societies historically based in Buddhism or other multiple gods religions
If the conspiracizing, the rank moral hypocrisy, the overt hateful bigotry and endorsement of violence are not treated as TABOO, if these people face no social consequences, it will all continue escalating and normalizing. We must ostracize this hate and all who espouse and sanitize it out of polite society and our mainstream politics, just as we did to marginalize and defeat the KKK. We have to make this hate costly. That is how we make this hate TABOO again.
I already posted this comment in this network. Nevertheless it's worth reading so I post it again. Powerful social networks contribute to the anti israel hysteria and anti-semitism.
. How? In some social networks moderation rely on mass reporting.
Those who are reported by the largest number of people are the ones banned.
This create an environment in Wich dissent is not allowed.
I had a pro israel account. I did No personal attacks.
No insults.
I did not criticized a single person personally.
I never said to anyone, that's a lie.
. I did not even acused Palestinians of terrorism.
I just replied to pro Palestinian people that keep acusing Israel of crimes.
I showed hamas did tunnel under hospitals.
I showed There is no Genocide. In average therewas 97 deaths daily during the só called genocide.
Such numbers are not compatible with intent of doing genocide.
Jews have always been acused of crimes.
Today Israel is acused of Genocide, I wrote.
These were my ideas.
I was banned from network.
Exactly because people could not refute my ideas, they hit the report button I got banned.
Meanwhile that network does allow the publication of videos trampling Israeli flag, burning Israeli flag,people acusing Israel of genocide, mass starvation, killing children, etc.
Rational defense of israel is excluded and the voices suppressed.
Incendiary acusations are allowed.
The result is what you see today.
The anti israel hysteria rising.
Nowadays Israel is acused of spraying chemical in European cities.
Israel acused of causing fires in Europe.
What people don't understand is how we arrived here.
We arrived here because some Social network instead of preventing incendiary speech and videos, instead block accounts that try to respond to such incendiary acusations and speech.
The voices demonstrating acusations against Israel are falsehoods, are the voices suppressed.
Tbe voices with incendiary acusations are allowed.
People became more extreme.
The extremism become more extreme, the anymosity stronger, the hysteria greater.
Social network amplify hostility.
People do not even understand that.
You notice the hatred of jews but don't understand how it grew so exponentially.
Because in some social networks hostility , hate speech towards Israel is allowed, and Israel defense does get censored and users blocked. This is not true in all social networks. But it is true in 2 of them.
It surprises me how more people have not realized that.
Social networks are suppressing people that support Israel because their system rely in mass reporting, and therefore those reported are those who try to disprove the acusations against Israel.
PS. That did happen to me in 2 networks. Without insulting anyone I got expelled from 2 networks.
In both because I try to disprove the acusations against Israel.
With success.
People reported me. I was excluded.
After That, in the chrome browser, I tried to create another profile in Network A.. I was prevented. Not even a new profile I can create. This is incredible.
I start posting some pro israel messages in network B. I was excluded.
The situation is so dire because voices that try to disprove incendiary acusations are suppressed
My account was just suppressed.
Because I did push back against acusations towards Israel.
People could not prove me wrong.
They exclude.
Some Social networks should be sued, frankly.
They have responsabiltes, not amplify hostility towards e entire countries and they are doing that, while suppressing rational voices.
If they just allowed hostile speech with litle moderation that would be defensible.
It's free speech.
But they are suppressing the few rational voices that push back against such incendiary acusations.

If I was so powerful, I’d have a lot more money and every antisemite would be dead.
Compelling reading. Thank you. And the conclusion is dark. I am of the same opinion - I do not see a way, at least not a quick and easy one, to overwhelm this tsunami of hatred. Everyone close to me says: “Don’t get fixated on negative. Read something else”.

Thank you, Lucy. The down elevator. But the last few stops include Netanyahu’s and AIPAC.
Enjoying your work.
Great piece, thanks so much Lucy
