The Antisemitism Industry doesn’t speak for Jews: It speaks for western elites
Many years ago, the Jewish US scholar Norman Finkelstein wrote a best seller that caused uproar among a group he exposed as the “Holocaust Industry”: people who invariably had not been direct victims of the Holocaust, but nonetheless chose to exploit and profit from Jewish suffering.

State of the Union: War and Genocide Are Still the American Way

Not All of the Genocide is Being Livestreamed
The Palestinian victims of genocide in Gaza are vastly underreported. The figure commonly used will soon top 30,000.

The desperate smear campaign to defend Israel’s crimes highlights the toxic brew of lies that’s been underpinning the liberal democratic order for decades.
