It is a delight to welcome Joan Swirsky back to my Blog with another of her carefully researched articles exposing the bias of the world’s press against Israel. It is distressing to those who love the TRUTH to be constantly bombarded with anti Jewish propaganda and hatred. Of course those of you who take the Bible as accurate History and Prophecy have no problem in discerning the truth of the matter. i have not placed extra pictures in Joan’s article because they are all included in the articles to which Joan has linked.
Gibber! Gibber!

Yes, There’s a Genocide Being Waged in Gaza!
It’s just not being waged by Jews…
Joan Swirsky October 15, 2026
Whether it’s on college campuses across America or on the streets of cities throughout the world or out of the mouths of major world leaders or the peace-loving antisemites at that cesspool on 1st Avenue in N.Y. City — the United Nations — or the Nobel Committee that just awarded the Peace Prize to a longtime antisemite, or just about the entire Democrat party, the “Israel is committing genocide” meme is all the rage, as ubiquitous as the now-disproven “Israel is an apartheid state” and “Israel is starving the Palestinians,” with proof of obese Arabs reported by no less an authoritative source than The Lancet.
But the genocide accusation is accurate! It’s only that the accusers are so accustomed to projecting their own malevolent thoughts and actions onto their enemies that they cannot tell the difference between truth and fiction — an inability they share with the craven members of the worldwide media, paid (or paid off?) by their globalist bosses, who also find a democratic republic like America and a parliamentary democracy like Israel a mortal threat to their grand ambitions of destroying Western civilization and replacing it with their own megalomaniacal mission of globalist control.
In truth, the genocide being waged in the Middle East is from the Arabs…from Iran’s orchestration of Hamas, Hezb’allah, the Houthis, and all the other Arab “victims” of the only state in the entire region — Israel — in which millions of Arabs live peaceably, thrive, hold positions of power (in the Knesset, on the Supreme Court, fighting for the Israel Defense Forces, et al.).
What Is Projection?
At Spiked, Brendan O’Neill writes, “Tell me what you accuse the Jews of [and] I’ll tell you what you are guilty of,’ said the great Soviet writer, Vasily Grossman.”
He was speaking about the psychological defense mechanism called projection.
Originally conceptualized by Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis, projection compels a person (or an entire group of people) to attribute his own individual thoughts, attitudes, biases, weaknesses, character flaws, and actions to another person or group.
The absolute perfect example is the Arabs from the terrorist group Hamas — and, in fact, all the enemies of Israel — accusing the Jewish state of committing genocide when, in fact, the mission of this terrorist group is the elimination of all Jews on Earth and the obliteration of the only Jewish state on Planet Earth.
Think about it. When the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians first arrived in Gaza, they numbered approximately one million. Today, they number five million. That means — objectively and factually and irrefutably — that Israel is an abject failure at committing genocide!
When Jews Fight Back
After the brutal assault by Hamas on October 7, 2023, there was an immediate worldwide reaction…not against the psychopaths who
· Murdered 1,200 Israelis in cold blood — the equivalent vis-à-vis population of 40,000 of us Americans.
· Wrested infants from their mothers’ arms and put them in ovens to bake to death,
· Raped women so savagely that they shattered their pelvic bones,
· Lit fires so deadly that they incinerated entire families in their homes,
· Captured 240 hostages and incarcerated them in their underground torture-the-Jews tunnels for over two years, and on and on
…but against Israel!
Who can forget the recorded voice of the deliriously thrilled terrorist who bragged to his mother over the phone, “Mom, I killed ten Jews!” Or the mothers of these mass murderers who were videotaped gleefully passing out candies at the news of Jewish deaths?
Why was there such a bizarre reaction to this mass murder?
Because clearly, the world doesn’t like when Jews fight back. And they particularly hate it when Jews prevail…ultimately
rendering Hamas and Hezb’allah and the Houthis essentially on the ropes if not impotent, although to this day these terrorist groups continue their last-ditch efforts to kill more Jews;
eliminating just about all of their leaders;
crippling their nuclear program — with the immense help of the U.S. military, thanks to President Trump; and
mortifying and terrifying them with the quite spectacular pager attack that left amazingly few mortalities but permanent paranoia in the ranks of the terrorists.
The Hamas Charter, he says, quotes the “stone and tree” hadith concerning Jews: “The hour [Judgment Day] will not come until the Muslims fight the Jews and the Muslims kill them, and until the Jew hides behind the stones and trees, and the stones and trees will say: ‘O Muslim, O servant of Allah, there is a Jew hiding [behind me], come and kill him.’”
Dr. Rosset continues:
A Hamas battle order for the massacre at Kibbutz Alumim included instructions to murder as many people as possible, take hostages and establish positions inside the buildings. Everyone found in the buildings was to be systematically murdered, and if control could not be taken of the buildings, they were to be burned with their occupants inside. It clarified that the stated objective was “kill, kill, kill,” and that civilians were to be used as human shields until reinforcements of additional Hamas fighters arrived (Israeli TV channel Kan, October 14, 2025).
And here, Dr. Michael Brownannihilates the accusation. “I write these words,” he says, from Poland, where 90 percent of Poland’s Jews — 3 million out of 3.3 million — were slaughtered during World War II. That is what genocide looks like. In stark contrast, roughly 70,000 of Gaza’s 2.3 million residents were killed during Israel’s war with Hamas, amounting to approximately 3 percent of the population. And that figure includes enemy combatants. Yet the same word, genocide, used for the systematic, intentional murder of 90 percent of Poland’s Jews — and two-thirds of Europe’s Jews as a whole — is being used to describe Israel’s war with Hamas. How can this be? And where is the moral equivalence?
In addition, Barry Shaw, the senior associate for public diplomacy at the Israel Institute for Strategic Studies and the author of the daily “View from Israel,” explains how The New York Times — founded and still run by Jews — has waged an 80-year crusade against Israel!
He then details the savage violence committed by the “Palestinians” against Jews only in the past 11 years (2015–2026).
The Sheer Hypocrisy of the Accusation
Here, the esteemed military historian Victor Davis Hanson spells out the genesis of this absurd accusation.
On October 7, 2023, Hamas killers slaughtered 1,200 people, more than two-thirds of them civilians, inside Israel. … Within a day of the attacks, when Hamas gunmen were still fighting Israeli troops on Israeli soil, the American Left was already screaming “genocide!”
And now we learn that Qatar — the sponsor and funder of the violent terror groups against Israel — sent over $100 million in aid to Gaza during the war, including 8 million gallons of fuel, food supplies, temporary shelters, and infrastructure projects. Talk about the compelling lust to kill Jews!
Been There…
Going back literally thousands of years, Jews are accustomed to maliciously false charges; to brazen lies; and to uncountable attempts to destroy not only their ancestral homeland, but the entire people themselves. To us, this is nothing new.
But why are our enemies so stupid? They remind me of the mal-educated American high school and college students who believe that even though both socialism and communism have failed thunderously in every country they’ve afflicted, they — these 21st-century students — will do it better!
Amazing to think of the Jews not only surviving, but of their phenomenally disproportionate contributions to mankind in medicine, science, agriculture, the arts, technology, industry, actually in every field of endeavor.
How can it be, their enemies wonder, that this tiny people — dispersed in a diaspora for the last 4,000 years to far-flung communities all over the world where they landed with no language skills, no money, no resources, no nothing, and yet managed to flourish and rise to prominence wherever they went?
As to the subject at hand, the brazen lie that Israelis have committed genocide, let’s never forget that if Hamas had not attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, the number of casualties in Gaza would be zero!
