Israel's Security Issue: Itamar Ben Gvir

 Nadene Goldfoot                                             

                                    Itamar Ben Gvir

The Israel's head of government's Security is in the hands of the Minister of Security, Itamar Ben Gvir, age 47 whose father was an Iraqi Jew, a Mizrachi Jew born in Jerusalem and he was also born in Israel in Mevaseret Zion outside of Jerusalem by 6 miles.  He's new at this position, a member of the Otzma Yehudit Political Party and  started on December 29, 2022.  Itamar replaced Omar Bar-Lev of the Labor Party who had only served since June 13, 2021 to December 29, 2022.  

Born between the Yom Kippur War from Oct 6 -26  of 73 when Arab countries attacked Israel on their holiest day when Israelis had their first surprise attack by the Arabs as Jews were in synagogues undergoing 25 hour fasts,  and 1982's Lebanon War, when Sharon allowed the Lebanese army to deal with the terrorists who went overboard with their tactics leaving Sharon to take the brunt of the blame,  he's become very defensive.  Sharon was to learn that the two groups were of like minds to a close degree.  The Lebanese did not behave like the Israelis would have.  

They do have Deputy Ministers and  the last was Yoav Segalovich, age 64  of Yesh Atid who served from June 13, 2021 to December 29, 2022. Yoav Segalovich (Hebrewיוֹאָב סֶגָלוֹבִיץ, born 23 April 1959) is an Israeli law enforcement officer and politician. Previously head of Lahav 433 and the Investigations and Intelligence Division, he is currently a member of the Knesset for Yesh Atid. He grew up in Tel Aviv and served in the Paratroopers Brigade during his national service in the Israel Defense Forces. He subsequently studied law at Tel Aviv University and volunteered in the Civil Guard. He joined the Police and worked as a prosecutor in the Sharon region, before becoming head of the Investigations Department in Netanya

 Following the 2020 elections, Segalovich opposed Blue and White joining Benjamin Netanyahu's government. This led to a split in the alliance, with Yesh Atid and Telem breaking away to sit in opposition. During the Knesset term, Segalovich served as chair of the Lobby for the Fight Against Governmental Corruption and the Lobby to Combat Violence in Arab Society.  

Netanyahu's mother is a Segal.  Are they related?  We're all related, many 4th and 5th cousins without having known about each other up to 20th cousins. DNA testing is most revealing. I'm distantly related to the Segal line.   

The Ministry of National Security (Hebrewהמשרד לביטחון לאומיArabicوزارة الأمن القومي), formerly Ministry of Internal Security and Ministry of Public Security, is a government agency of Israel.

It is the statewide law enforcement agency and oversees the Israel Police, the Israel Prison Service and the Israel National Fire and Rescue ServicesIsrael Border Police, National Headquarters for the Protection of Children on the Internet, National Authority for Community Safety and The Authority for Witness Protection.

Itamar Ben Gvir is the far-right politician (Hebrewאִיתָמָר בֶּן גְּבִיר; born 6 May 1976) is an Israeli lawyer and politician who serves as the Minister of National Security. He is additionally a member of the Knesset and leader of Otzma Yehudit. His political position has been described as far-right.  He lives in Judea-Samaria.  He has been outwardly angry with the Palestinians, a follower of Rabbi Meir Kahane b: 1932, Israeli ordained Orthodox rabbi, writer, and ultra-nationalist politician who served one term in Israel's Knesset before being convicted of acts of terrorism. He founded the Israeli political party Kach. A cofounder of the Jewish Defense League (JDL), he espoused strong views against antisemitism., an American rabbi who also saw no future with the Palestinians due to the attacks they kept  up against Israelis.  

On 3 January 2023, Itamar Ben Gvir visited the Temple Mount where the al-Aqsa Mosque is located, spurring an international wave of criticism that labelled his visit purposely provocative.  He's been the main defender of Jews on trial for their radical behavior towards the Arabs.  Itamar, in other words, has a  reputation not popular with the Democratic Party of the USA.  

The Jerusalem Post reports that "National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir supports the formation of an emergency national unity government due to the ongoing war with Hamas, but reiterates that he blames opposition MKs Benny Gantz and Gadi Eisenkot for the current situation, Israeli media reported.

Brainwashing By Nazis and By Modern Politicians and what they Depend On

                             Brainwashing against Jews in world by Nazis and Arabs                             by Hajj Mohammed Amin el-Husseini, 
 Nadene Goldfoot

The term "brainwashing" was first used in English by Edward Hunter in 1950 to describe how the Chinese government appeared to make people cooperate with them during the Korean War. Research into the concept also looked at Nazi Germany, at some criminal cases in the United States, and at the actions of human traffickers. In the late 1960s and 1970s, the CIA's MKUltra experiments failed with no operational use of the subjects. Scientific and legal debate followed, as well as media attention, about the possibility of brainwashing being a factor when Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) was used,or in the conversion of people to groups which are considered to be cults.

The concept of brainwashing is not now generally accepted as a scientific fact. In casual speech, "brainwashing" and its verb form, "brainwash", are used figuratively to describe the use of propaganda to persuade or sway public opinion.

After WWI (1914-1917) Germany, beaten, was in an uproar. Hajj Mohammed Amin El- Husseini, mufti of Jerusalem and head of Supreme Moslem Council (1893-1974) had been organizing the Palestine disturbances.  He had gone to Hitler for a meeting before the war II had started asking for help with his plan to kill the Jews.  Hitler evidently would only commit to help after progress of his armies in Russia and North Africa who entered Poland in 1939 , but he explained to Husseini that the German conflict with Soviet bolshevism and English capitalism is in both instances a fight to the death between national Socialism (Germany) and the Jew.  He reassured the mufti that after eradicating the "Jewish element" in Europe, he would do so in the Middle East too.  One can see that Hitler, long committed to the annihilation of European Jewry (which had already begun before the meeting with the mufti), said that the extermination policy would be continuing.  

Hitler was having economic problems, and problems with Communism competition, but all along planning the demise of the Jewish people!  Anti-Semitism in Germany had become the worst since the Pope's decision in the 300s by Romans who saw Judaism competition for their new religion of Christianity. Repetition of seeing and hearing the prattle of the brain washing...that's what they use to win minds.   

When Nazi Party leader, Adolf Hitler, became German chancellor on January 30, 1933, no step-by-step blueprint for the genocide of Jews as a “race” existed that Hitler disclosed to the masses. However, his attitude towards Jews went right along with the population who held that belief as well.  

After the outbreak of World War II, millions of Jews came under Nazi control. Nazi policy extended from persecution to ghettoization and ultimately to systematic mass murder.  Mass murdering Jews started in 1941.

"From 1933 to 1939, Nazi leaders aimed to roll back the legal status German Jews had enjoyed since 1871 as full citizens."  German leaders, floundering, saw that Jews were terrific business-people.  They were making a profit and stayed in business while the rest of the population were unemployed and non-motivated workers. 

German Jews had served in WWI along with the Gentile population. In 1939 Jewish men were forced to scrub the streets.  Ferdinand Oster, b: 1881, put on his WWI uniform when he did it to show the Nazis how crazy they were, that Jews had been veterans like others, and that this is how they were being treated?  Eighty percent of the Jews in Germany (about 400,000 people) held German citizenship. The remainder were mostly Jews of Polish citizenship, many of whom were born in Germany and who had permanent resident status in Germany.  It did not move the population.  The brainwashing had done the deed.  Nazis had the population under their mind-control.  

 They sought to drive Jews from the economy and make life so difficult for Jews that they would leave Germany. During World War II (1939–1945) and especially after the German invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941, Nazi policy turned murderous. Larger numbers of Jews also fell under Nazi control as a result of German military conquests and alliances.

The Nazi persecution of Jews developed in several “stages” in Germany from 1933 to 1939. The Nazis used a combination of laws and decrees, propaganda, intimidation, and violence to segregate Jews from German society, remove them from the economy, and force them to leave the country.  Force them?  It was darn hard for the average German to get out.  My uncle by marriage got out finally in May 1939 and could not get anyone else in his family out.  They could only afford one as it was expensive.  He was selected as the family member to get out.  

Germany's society became immune to the fact that Jews were selected for the blame of their miseries.  It was just like in Syria with the Arabs even blaming their bad weather on the Jews that was going on in the 1990s.  My copy-cat theory was at work.  Mass thought-copying what's on the radio, newspaper and next-door neighbors' attitudes became a mass hysteria towards Jews.  It was a form of mind-control used by the Nazis, either accidently or purposely-brain washing. 


                    

Now skip to present day USA, and look at what is going on with our 2 political camps;  Democrats and Republican, polls showing 43% for each.  It's even for both parties.  Each group is asking how the other can be so stupid as to swallow the stories each group is stating.  

Tomorrow a presentation will hit the screen, if allowed, exposing Trump 's 4th indictment. Most of his followers have not become nauseated over his attempts to stay in power by any means.  They say he is not guilty of a thing, like he has been saying all along.  

Democrats are sickened, but their hero, Biden, is not as clean as a whistle.  He's also now being looked into.  He also has had Washington DC files in his house that were found, and now his son's business seems to have immersed with Biden's power as president--very impressive on one's resume, helping him to buy more drugs in that period.  They're probably cringing, after saying a lot about Trump and his manipulation tries.  

What we can take from all this is that no one turns out to be  perfect.  Even an honest Abe is hard to find these days and may have put their big toe or the whole foot in the waters testing it. Many Democrats and Republicans are considering voting for a 3rd party person, but that might just be giving the election to one of the two above.  They're in a quandary, weighing in the benefits and detriments.  

The closest man to perfection and honesty other than Honest Abe  looks like Jack Luman Smith Smith was born on June 5, 1969. He grew up in Clay, New York, a suburb of Syracuse. He graduated from Liverpool High School in 1987, where he played football and baseball. He then studied political science at the State University of New York at Oneonta, graduating in 1991 with a Bachelor of Artssumma cum laude. Smith then attended Harvard Law School, from which he graduated in 1994 with a Juris Doctorcum laude.  Dershowitz said Jack Smith left out a couple of words...not good.  

On May 7, 2018, Smith was named to a four-year term as chief prosecutor for the Kosovo Specialist Chambers in The Hague, investigating war crimes in the Kosovo War including the case of Salih Mustafa. He took up the post on September 11, 2018, and was appointed to a second term on May 8, 2022, before stepping down on November 18, 2022.

On November 18, 2022, United States Attorney General, Merrick Garland, appointed Smith special counsel to oversee the criminal investigations into Donald Trump's actions regarding the January 6 U.S. Capitol attack, and Trump's handling and storage of government records, including classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate. He worked initially from the Netherlands while recovering from a fractured leg, injured when he was struck by a scooter while cycling. By early January 2023, Smith had returned to the U.S.

The person selecting Smith was Garland, and Garland is considered a judicial moderate and a centrist. Garland has been described by Nina Totenberg and Carrie Johnson of NPR as "a moderate liberal, with a definite pro-prosecution bent in criminal cases".  On March 16, 2016, President Barack Obama nominated Merrick Garland for Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States to succeed Antonin Scalia, who had died one month earlier, so Garland was picked by Democrat President Obama.  

Being Smith had been out of the country dealing with worst of people, perhaps he has been more honest than most would be.  Let's hope.  The act of copy-catness, so prevelant in mind-control,  possibly hasn't rubbed off onto him.  

One who knows our  constitution like the back of his hand is Alan Dershowitz.  He's my man for that knowledge.  I wonder what he's thinking today?  Harvard Law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz warned that former Attorney General Bill Barr is "dead wrong" on his assessment of the latest Trump indictment, arguing prosecutors will have to prove the former president knew and believed he lost the 2020 presidential election to prevail. Dershowitz joined "The Brian Kilmeade Show" on Thursday to discuss his previous legal predictions and why the Justice Department could be facing an uphill battle in proving Trump's alleged guilt in connection with the Jan. 6 charges.  He talks about the "Nixon Standard."  ALAN DERSHOWITZ: I predicted all four of the indictments. And I also predicted that the Hunter Biden plea bargain would not be accepted. The reason my predictions are correct and CNN's are always wrong is they're always wishful thinking. And mine is just based on my experience. I don't have a horse in the race. I just try to predict based on 60 years of doing this. 

Another thought:  Germans were never known to be traders or crafts workers.  They had been under Alexander the Great, the Greek and turned into them into his warriors since they had showed skill at it.  It was the Jews who were known traders, managers of money and finances.  It was in their genes, developed over time if genes can do that.  So, at least since the Roman period, Germans had been warriors fighting for others or even themselves.  As a result, surprisingly to them as well, no doubt, they lost WWI and WWII. What they did was not ethical-entering and attacking others' countries to gain land for themselves.  It's not right.  They did it in both wars.

How Benjamin Disraeli, Prime Minister, Dealt with Anti-Semitism

Nadene Goldfoot
Benjamin Disraeli (1804-1881) was the British Prime Minister at a time that I have been doing a lot of genealogy searches of my family.  As it turns out, he was born into a Jewish family.  He had grown up in a house full of books and simply devoured them.  His father was a literary critic and historian.  So it was inevitable that he grew up to be one of the most articulate leaders of his age.

He wrote a novel when only 22 years old about corruption in high society.  It became a best seller, but critics, not his father necessarily, treated it as trash, causing him to have a nervous breakdown.  He recovered later around the age of 27.  You could say he was a sensitive person.

His father's way of dealing with the prevailing anti-Semitism was to have Benjamin baptised into Christianity at the age of 12.  However, at the age of 26 and feeling better, he took a trip to the Middle East to explore his Jewish roots where he embraced his Jewish identity.  

Later on he was elected as a Tory, a name for a Conservative Party member.  He was a man that was able to use his erudition, wit and sharp tongue to deal with critics, while rarely losing his poise.  One day he was attacked by an Irish Catholic leader, Daniel O'Connell for being Jewish.  Disraeli responded calmly, "when the right honorable gentleman's ancestors lived in bogs and painted themselves blue, mine were high priests in the Temple of Solomon."  He did have chutzpah!

What a great answer to someone who hated Jews for being Jews.  Queen Victoria liked him, though and had offered him the chance to form a new government.  In 1874 he took over as prime minister for the 2nd time. He's well known for stopping the Russian expansion and overcame the refusal of his Conservative Party to provide strong opposition to the Liberal Party.  His lesson he gave to people was to look at ways to broaden your appeal to other audiences.  He said that circumstances are the creatures of men.  I guess he thought man could also change those circumstances.
