    The world, so it seems, is giving a standing ovation to the new Israeli
    orator, the author, David Grossman. Israel's public relations
    desperately needs a righteous intellectual, an author who ‘talks peace’,
    a man who preaches ‘reconciliation’ , a man of shalom . Yesterday the
    Guardian published Grossman’s last week speech at the Yitzchak Rabin
    memorial in Tel Aviv.

    (http://www.guardian .co.uk/g2/ story/0,, 1941046,00. html).

    Grossman is a ‘matured enlightened Israeli’, a light left Zionist who
    craves for a change. I read Grossman’s speech, and I must say that
    though the man is seen by some as an Israeli left intellectual, I see in
    his speech nothing but hard core Jewish supremacy and even maintenance
    of the old crude Zionist racial agenda. Grossman, like other Israelis,
    is totally submerged within a Zio-centric chauvinist discourse, a
    discourse of denial of the Palestinian cause; i.e., the right of return

    I have collected and highlighted some outrageous extracts made by the
    newly emerging Hebraic left orator.

    Grossman And The Myth Of ‘Jewish Universal Values’

    Grossman, the Israeli some of us love to love, serves us with a major
    glimpse into the Zionist secular mind. "I am", so he says about himself
    "a man entirely without religious faith". However, Grossman doesn’t stop
    just there. "For me, the establishment - and very existence - of the
    state of Israel is something of a miracle that happened to us as a
    people; a political, national, human miracle." And I ask myself, since
    when do secular beings believe in miracles? One may have to remind the
    ‘Israeli secular intellectual’ that a miracle is ‘an effect or
    extraordinary event in the physical world that surpasses all known human
    or natural powers and is ascribed to a supernatural cause’. Indeed,
    Grossman, like many other Israelis, has managed to follow a new form of
    secularism. It is an atheism that ‘ascribes to some supernatural cause’.
    Bizarrely enough, the Zionist seculars are pretty fundamentally orthodox
    about their new pathetic religion. I may help Grossman and suggest to
    him that there is no real truly heroic miracle about Israel. Israel is
    just a vulgar racist ultra nationalist state. Israel's relative success
    seems miraculous just because it took its Arab neighbors a few
    generations to adapt to the level of Zionist barbarism.

    According to Grossman, Israel wasted that ‘miracle’, that "great and
    rare opportunity that history granted it, the opportunity to create an
    enlightened, properly functioning democratic state that would act in
    accordance with Jewish and universal values."

    Following Grossman's glimpse into the Jewish spirit, enlightenment and
    democracy are foreign to Jews and their occurrence within the Jewish
    sphere should be realised as a miracle. Probably without realizing
    Grossman admits here that ‘enlightenment’ and ‘democracy’ oppose the
    Jewish spirit. Certainly, this intellectual current is not new, neither
    is it original. The early waves of Zionist ideologists believed that in
    Zion, a new Jew would emerge: a civilized, secular, democratic and
    enlightened Jew who rebels against his morally degenerate Diaspora
    ancestor.

    More worryingly, Grossman bluntly deceives his listeners by referring to
    ‘Jewish universal values’ as if such values are nothing but an accepted
    common knowledge. As bizarre it may seem to some, there is no general
    accepted set of ‘Jewish universal values’. Is there a book that presents
    a notion ‘Jewish universal values’? I don’t think so. If there is a set
    of values that should be realised as ‘Jewish universal values’, those
    are properly conveyed by the Judaic core. I believe that Torah Jews who
    genuinely support the Palestinian cause may know something about
    universal values. Yet, Grossman portrays himself as a secular man.
    Surely it isn’t the Judaic orthodox interpretation he is thinking of when
    referring to Jewish universality. In fact, it is Christianity that
    translates Judaism into a universal value system. It is Christianity
    that transforms the ‘neighbor’ into a ‘universal other’. Without a
    doubt, there are plenty of universal humanists who happen to be Jewish
    by origin, Yet there is no recognized set of ‘Jewish universal values’.
    Grossman and other Jewish intellectuals who spread the myth of ‘Jewish
    universalism’ are deceiving themselves and their listeners. Moreover,
    the fact that Jewish secularism lacks a philosophical background may
    explain the general moral bankruptcy of the Jewish state. As we will
    read soon, Grossman himself falls into the same trap. He may be
    aware of the concept of morality but he fails in presenting a consistent
    moral worldview. He may be aware of the negative effect of racism but
    he, himself, manages to fall into supremacist bigotry rather easily.

    Grossman The Blunt Racist

    Grossman is courageous enough to stand up and admit that "violence and
    racism" has taken control of his home, Israel. So far so good. For a
    second I tend to believe that Grossman is indeed an enlightened anti
    racist secular Jew but then, just a sentence later he asks, "how can it
    be that a people with our powers of creativity and regeneration" has
    managed to finds itself today "in such a feeble, helpless state"? The
    critical reader may ask oneself what really Grossman refers to when he
    says "people with our powers of creativity and regeneration"? It is
    rather simple. Grossman truly believes in the uniqueness of the chosen
    people. In other words, Grossman is nothing more than a biological
    determinist. The question to be asked here is how come the Guardian
    dedicates three pages to a Jewish supremacist? I believe that Jews do
    enjoy some freedoms the rest of humanity lack. For instance, I find it
    hard to believe that the Guardian would give a voice to a German
    philosopher who praises Aryan people’s ‘powers of creativity and
    regeneration’. Somehow, a Jew intellectual can get away doing just
    that.

    Although Grossman is honest enough to admit that the Palestinians have
    placed Hamas in their leadership, he calls Olmert to "appeal to the
    Palestinians, over Hamas's head. Appeal to the moderates among them, to
    those who, like you and me, oppose Hamas and its ideology".

    Mr. Grossman, if you are indeed a universal humanist, something I
    obviously suspect, you then better learn to listen to the Hamas rather
    than speaking to the Palestinians over their elected leader’s heads.
    Grossman obviously fail to respect his neighbor, he fails to respect
    their democratic choice. Generally speaking, I suggest that we leave the
    despicable method of speaking over heads to Bush and Blair.
    Intellectuals have the privilege to listen and to act ethically.

    Grossman the Victim

    But Grossman's Jewish chutzpah doesn’t stop just there. "Look at the
    Palestinians, just once" he tells Olmert. "You will see a people no less
    tortured than we are." Yes, this isn’t a joke. Grossman, the colonialist
    Jew who dwells on Palestinian occupied land while practicing ethnic
    cleansing of an indigenous nation, is looking at the Palestinian
    terrorised victims while saying ‘they are almost as tortured as me’.

    This probably says it all. It summarizes the level of the Zio-left
    blindness. Indeed, if these are the Israeli leftists, who need Right?

    Indeed, in his concluding paragraph Grossman admits: "The differences
    between right and left are not that great today". He is correct. Within
    the European political discourse, Grossman, the Israeli left
    intellectual icon, is no other than a banal right wing neocon. A man who
    preaches racism in the name of good will. A man who talks over the heads
    of other people.

    Grossman and the Two State Solution

    Grossman is deceiving himself and his listeners by saying that "the land
    will be divided, that there will be a Palestinian state". You are
    partially wrong, Mr. Grossman. This land will never be divided. I will
    make it very simple so you and your very few Zio leftists may realise
    once and for all. Palestine is a land, Israel is a state. Palestine will
    always be Palestine; i.e., a land. Israel, on the other hand, is a
    racist nationalist state and will disappear. The land won’t be divided.
    It will re-unite into One Palestine. Rather than maintaining a racist
    nationalist state I call Grossman and his friends to join the one
    Palestine movement. A movement that endorses equality in the land of
    Palestine. Palestine where values are universal.
