We are becoming aware, often belatedly, of the crimes committed by the Benjamin Netanyahu government against civilians in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, and Iran. No other government in the world considers the elimination of those who resist it to justify all collateral damage, regardless of the number.

Should the State of Israel Be Defascistized?

by Thierry Meyssan

We must also realize that this way of thinking did not arise from nowhere; it has a long and abominable history.
We must take responsibility and intervene before this government begins to attack its own citizens. Not because they are more valuable than Arabs and Persians, but because they are the same: they are human beings too.

International public opinion has clearly shifted regarding Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel. It is now clear to a majority that he is not seeking peace, but is attempting to annihilate the population of southern Lebanon, as he tried to do with that of Gaza.

This only became clear when he opposed the United States’ peace plan with Iran, because, for the first time, his main ally showed that another path was possible.

Since the Likud/Kahanist coalition [1] came to power, we have consistently explained that the current Israeli government is pursuing the "revisionist Zionist" project of Ze’ev Vladimir Jabotinsky [2].

Although we have repeatedly emphasized that the "revisionist Zionist" project of a "Jewish Empire" has no connection whatsoever with Theodor Herzl’s "Zionism," some readers have dismissed our arguments, believing they mask an antisemitic bias. Besides being insulting, this ignores our work in promoting equality for all.

We therefore recall a long-hidden truth: Revisionist Zionists were allies of Duce Benito Mussolini and negotiated with associates of Führer Adolf Hitler throughout the Second World War and even beyond. They organized, with SS officer Adolf Eichmann, the deportation of thousands of Hungarian Jews to Auschwitz [3].

Confusion arose after Operation Al-Aqsa: The Flood of October 7, 2023. A debate ensued regarding whether the Israeli response should be classified as genocide. Some argued that, on the one hand, the Israeli army clearly did not seek to kill targets based on their ethnicity and, on the other hand, that there were no government orders to that effect.

However, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) were implementing the “Dahiyah Directive,” drafted by the highly respected General Gadi Eizenkot in October 2008 [4]. Speaking about the suburbs of Beirut and southern Lebanon, he told Yediot Aharonot: “We will apply disproportionate force to the villages and cause extensive damage and destruction. From our perspective, these are not civilian villages; they are military bases. This is not a recommendation. It is a plan. And it has been approved.”

This plan was first implemented in Gaza over the past three years and in Lebanon in recent months. These are war crimes publicly claimed by a Jewish Arab military officer who served as Chief of Staff of the IDF from 2015 to 2019 and who became a minister without portfolio, joining the war cabinet on October 11, 2023.

These war crimes aim to annihilate the popular resistance of Gazans and Lebanese. To conflate the resistance fighters with the civilian population is to claim that all Gazans and all southern Lebanese will be annihilated. This undoubtedly constitutes genocide.

It was up to the International Court of Justice (the internal tribunal of the United Nations) to decide. This is what South Africa, already a victim of revisionist Zionists during the apartheid era, attempted to achieve as early as December 29, 2023. Unfortunately, the majority of the Court initially opposed it under the influence of its president, the Lebanese Nawaf Salam. He owes his family fortune to his grandfather’s purchase of Palestinian bourgeois land on behalf of Lord Lionel Walter Rothschild. Following Salam’s intervention, he was appointed Prime Minister of Lebanon… where he must confront the very same situation he failed to resolve in Gaza.

The question now is, “Should we defascize the State of Israel?” just as Germany was supposedly denazified. Indeed, everyone must be aware that Benjamin Netanyahu and his allies intend to fundamentally transform the State of Israel, which they have already defined as “the Jewish state,” and which they have said they want to turn not into “Athens,” but into “Super-Sparta” [5].

This issue is likely to be vital: to date, Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition practices torture, war crimes, and genocide, but it has never taken the lives of its opponents. Yet this is the next step in its seizure of power and the realization of its goals. It has not done so out of humanity, but for one reason only: to maintain the unity of the Israeli people in order to use its image to mask its crimes.

We must all understand, Israelis and non-Israelis, Jews and non-Jews, that the “revisionist Zionists” are the enemies of humankind. They showed no restraint in murdering pro-Soviet Ukrainian Jews in 1921-1923 [6], and then the wealthiest Hungarian Jews in 1942-1945. They will show no more restraint tomorrow in killing those who resist them, regardless of who they are. We must look at the facts clearly and stop them.
