My neighbour is not standing with the Palestinian people.  She’s a cultist, a disciple of Israel. I think she pretends to be a “liberal” or a “progressive,” and she also pretends to be Jewish. Well, she’s Jewish when it’s convenient for her to be Jewish and when she’s going through one of her many emotional sagas. She’s been brainwashed that she must be in lockstep with Israel — the #2 Terrorist nation on Earth — no matter what Israel does.  With her and because she’s allegedly Jewish, Israel and anything Israel does is sacrosanct, above reproach and without question.  Knowing her as I do, I thought she would take that position towards this political issue.  It’s the same brainwashing that the “MAGA” Tr*mp cultists engage in.  It’s called blind, lockstep, unconditional devotion. It’s being a religious fundamentalist.  A religious fanatic.

It was disgusting to see Anthony Blinken tell Israel that the US — the #1 Terrorist nation on Earth — will “always stand by Israel” and that they have “ironclad” support for Israel.  So even when Israel is wrong about something — they can’t ever be wrong according to the US? — the US will always stand by them. Insanity. But I suppose that’s what one should expect from Biden, et al.

Cult Israel

Most of the world’s media are taking the same position towards genuflecting to Israel.  The Deutsch Chancellor went so far as to say that he would stifle dissent of the pro-Palestinian people in Deutschland.  I’m not sure how he can do that, although stifling dissent has already begun in Berlin.  I don’t think former Chancellor Angela Merkel would have said that. Scholz looked so conservative standing there before Deutscher Bundestag in his black suit, black tie and white shirt. I thought Olaf Scholz believed in freedom of speech, no?  Apparently not when it comes to sacrosanct Israel and any criticism of Israel? These people are something else! They are cultists for Cult Israel. And that is the mentality. Talking with my friend about this, I was trying to think of another country with an established church/religion. Well, there’s the Church of England being the established church for England, but they’re not rabid like the insane Netanyahu. About eight-in-ten (81%) Israeli adults are Jewish, whilst the remainder are mostly ethnically Arab and religiously Muslim (14%), And the world never genuflects to the Church of England (the Anglican Church) or the UK Prime Minister the way the world and corporate media are putting Israel up on a pedestal and seen as sacrosanct and can do no wrong. Cult Israel indeed.

As for me, I take each issue on its own.  I’m not in lockstep with anyone regardless of the topic, which burns a lot of people up, I suspect.  I’ve never been a “team player.”

I’m an Anglican atheist, and if the CofE (Church of England, the mother church of the worldwide Anglican Communion) or the US Episcopal Church or the Anglican Church or the Anglican Communion do something with which I disagree, I say so.  The same goes for my views about the classical music field.  I had all of that tradition stuff — that I complain about today — brainwashed into me as part of my Conservatory training.  Today, I reject much of it because it doesn’t make any sense to logical/thinking people.  Have I told you how much I hate the camera people at Saint Thomas Church Fifth Avenue?  And I’m not hot on Mr Anti-Descant (Jeremy) either. I’ve become rather disappointed with his appointment. He’s certainly no Jeremy Bruns when it comes to grand and glorious High Church hymn playing. If I were like my so-called “Jewish” neighbour, I wouldn’t be saying these things because they go against the things that I’m supposed to be in lockstep with because of my background, training and the Anglican Church. But I’m not a cultist for anybody.

But my neighbour is the opposite.  Blind and unconditional devotion is what she’s about which is very fundamentalist thinking.  But one couldn’t tell her that because one would hit the Wall of Denial.  Then she’d turn on the water works, the Emotions Card.  Although I don’t ever remember seeing the woman cry, even after she lost 4-5 friends in a row.  Well, she tries so hard to be like a guy (she’s a lesbian).

Do I plan to bring up this political topic with her? No, never. Absolutely not. And if she brings it up, I’m changing the subject immediately. It would accomplish nothing just like the years I spent on political “progressive” websites writing comments. I don’t think I changed one person’s mind the entire time I was writing comments. It was a major waste of time in hindsight. If someone doesn’t “get it” by now, they’re not about to, regardless of what I say. So I write what I have to say here on pink-barrio.com.

When DJT (the former White House resident before Biden) moved his big overweight ass into the White House, I remember my neighbour was talking about moving to Israel.  I didn’t ask her: Why? Why would you do that? I’m not sure how that came up.  She didn’t move anywhere.  It was just talk. So she’s on the wrong side of this Palestinian-Israel issue for being a “liberal” or Progressive.”  But to her it’s all about being Jewish, even though she’s Jewish in name-only.  She never goes to temple or synagogue, and as I said, she’s only Jewish when it’s in her interests, when it’s convenient for her and she can use it as an emotional crutch of sorts during some emotional wreck drama she’s going through, often of her own making.

Things aren’t looking too good for the Palestinian people as of this writing since all public services have been cut off or turned off for them.  Even temporary power generators won’t last long.

It should be pointed out that Palestinians are not Hezbollah.  The Hezbollah are using Palestinians to fight their war against Israel.  And people should not ignore Israel’s stealing of Palestinian land for settlements.

Israel is one fucking piece of barbaric work, just like the United States of North America. Then I read this: Israeli soldiers and settlers kill dozens of West Bank Palestinians, without a trial or without even knowing if they took part in anything. That’s barbaric. I guess where this Orchestra is performing will be bombed shortly.

Palestinian Diaspora Orchestra

Here’s a sample of the Palestine Symphony Orchestra for you to enjoy (ignore the screamer-soloist; they have those no matter where you go in the world. There always has to be at least one screamer/soloist to ruin things). Go to 37.43 in the video below to hear the Orchestra perform:
