Jericho, November 16 – I died last week. You might think that prevents me from further expression of my political mantras and propaganda, but I’m not going to let a little death stop me from doing what I’ve always done. Besides, arguing a dead issue is the perfect context for me to speak as I do despite my death, fighting, as I always have, to undo something that cannot be undone: the State of Israel. This time I echo the claims of the dissatisfied credulous masses of Trump supporters who still think election shenanigans “stole” the vote from their candidate in key states; I aver that the November 29, 1947 United Nations vote on the Partition Plan, which allegedly garnered the majority it needed to approve a Jewish state in part of British Mandatory Palestine alongside a new Arab state, was rife with fraud that rendered it meaningless.
The official accounts and tallies from that day of course align with the side that has always carried a reputation for manipulating international events to suit their global hegemony agenda, and that alone must serve as cause for suspicion. Are we to believe that a world so insensitive to the plight of a beleaguered, persecuted, slaughtered people that it refused to take the steps necessary to prevent a Holocaust, suddenly decided it cared about those people? Please. And that’s even assuming you accept there was a Holocaust! But the only red flag the world accepts in this context is that of the Soviet Union, which voted in favor of partition. Stalin! In favor of a Jewish state! Is there anything more suspect that that?!
“No evidence of widespread fraud!” I can already see the headlines scream it. But it needn’t be “widespread.” Just enough to tip the balance in favor of the plotters’ desired outcome. But no one in the mainstream media appears to care about the glaring problems, the mathematical improbabilities, the wrongness of the scenario. And who controls that media? Bingo.
And the vote was never even binding! The Arabs never agreed to the partition, so the whole thing became irrelevant – but everyone treats it as if the UN created Israel. The whole process is illegitimate, and Israel doesn’t legally exist, and none of what Israel has ever accomplished ever actually happened, because WE DO NOT ACCEPT IT. Except for all the bad stuff Israel has done. That definitely happened.
I tell, you, this stinks like a week-old COVID corpse.
