Defending Israel is Elemental to Being an American

NY City Mayor De Blasio: Defending Israel is Elemental to Being an American … by  Bob Johnson

New York City’s Mayor Bill De Blasio is among the much too large herd of US politicians who believe America and Americans need to defend the Jewish state of Israel.

In a secret speech to the most powerful arm of the Israel lobby, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, DeBlasio said, “There is a philosophical grounding to my belief in Israel and it is my belief, it is our obligation, to defend Israel. But it is also something that is elemental to being an American because there is no greater ally on earth, and that’s something we can say proudly.”

Soulless politicians like De Blasio don’t really love Israel; they love their powerful political careers and the cash and influence that comes with them. They know that if they want to keep their political careers they need to please the overly powerful Israel lobby by putting the Jewish state’s interests above the interests of Americans and America. This selling out of America and Americans virtually guarantees them positive press coverage in the media which is top-heavy with Jewish movers and shakers.

De Blasio is a Gentile. When we hear Jewish politicians in the US say such things we should not really be shocked by it, although we should realize the profound danger it is to America, Americans and to the world. When US Senator Chuck Schumer said on a New York Jewish radio show that he’s on a mission from God to protect Israel, it demonstrated his loyalty to his own people and to their nation.

However, when a Gentile goy-boy like De Blasio makes such statements it strongly indicates that he is ignorant of Judaism OR that he doesn’t care for or love his own children. Judaism, as expressed in the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament, is what the Jewish state of Israel is based on.

Whether or not the Jews of today are genetically the same as the Jews of the Bible doesn’t matter because the Jews of today in present day Israel have adapted the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament and have based Israel on it. This is made clear by Israel not even having a constitution due to religious reasons. Israeli PM Netanyahu makes it clear on a regular basis every time he makes statements like, “[Jerusalem] is not a settlement. It is the sovereign capital of the State of Israel. We have been building in Jerusalem for 3,000 years.”

If De Blasio and all the other Gentile politicians who promote Israel over all do know what is in the Jewish “holy” book, the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament, then they have to be so cold-hearted and selfish that they don’t care about the future of their own families and children, let alone their fellow Gentiles and nation. This is because the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament is a blueprint for Jewish superiority over all Gentiles and for putting Israel “on high above all nations of the earth” (Deuteronomy 28:1).

These soulless politicians like Bill De Blasio, if they are aware of the contents and teachings in the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament which they are obligated to be if they’re going to promote a foreign nation that is based upon it, must not care that this Jewish “holy” book teaches Jews that they should not own fellow Jews as slaves, but that they should own Gentiles and our children as slaves “for ever.”

It plainly teaches this ungodly command (and does so in a manner which indicates God/The Supreme Intelligence is giving the command) at Leviticus 25:44-46:

Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids. Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.  And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with rigour.

I never heard any Israeli official or rabbi repudiate this Hebrew Bible/Old Testament teaching which reeks of anti-Gentileism. US politicians, and politicians from all of the Gentile nations, should demand that Israel and Judaism make very clear that they disavow this ungodly and anti-Gentile teaching. Any Gentile who supports Israel and/or Judaism must not care if they and their children and grandchildren become slaves and property of Jews based on Leviticus 25:44-46.

A teaching from the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament which makes clear any politician or member of the military of a Gentile nation who supports the Jewish state of Israel is committing treason to their own nation and people is Isaiah 60:12 which goes hand in hand with the Gentiles as slaves teaching of the above quote from Leviticus.

Isaiah 60:12 states regarding Israel, “For the nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted.” This means that if the US or any other Gentile nation will not prostrate itself before the Jewish state of Israel and become its slave/servant, the Jewish god will utterly waste and destroy that Gentile nation.

When De Blasio and others of his ilk tie America to the foreign religious state of Israel, they are in violation of a principle of neutrality promoted by the Deist and America’s best general and first president, George Washington. In his farewell address George Washington warned America about the dangers of not being neutral in foreign affairs. He said:

So likewise, a passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest in cases where no real common interest exists, and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter without adequate inducement or justification.

It leads also to concessions to the favorite nation of privileges denied to others which is apt doubly to injure the nation making the concessions; by unnecessarily parting with what ought to have been retained, and by exciting jealousy, ill-will, and a disposition to retaliate, in the parties from whom equal privileges are withheld.

And it gives to ambitious, corrupted, or deluded citizens (who devote themselves to the favorite nation), facility to betray or sacrifice the interests of their own country, without odium, sometimes even with popularity; gilding, with the appearances of a virtuous sense of obligation, a commendable deference for public opinion, or a laudable zeal for public good, the base or foolish compliances of ambition, corruption, or infatuation.

We need to get back to the Deist roots of America which will give us the common sense and motivation to finally free ourselves from “revealed”/hearsay religious delusions which make possible and actually encourage the promotion of Israel over all and all the religious violence and warfare that brings to us and the world.
