FINLAND’S STATE BROADCASTER YLE AIRS FAR-LEFTIST GIDEON GITAI’S ANTI-ISRAEL DOCUMENTARY, SEVEN HOURS TO DEATH…….

IT’S A LEFTIST PROPAGANDIST SMEAR FLICK

Gideon Gitai represents the very same mentality that was seen in Sweden some years ago when an another former Israeli, Dror Feiler, made a highly offensive ‘art’ exhibit highlighting an Arab suicide bomber who murdered Israelis, floating her picture in a pool of fake blood. The then Israeli Ambassador to Sweden , Zvi Mazel, tossed one of the lamps shining on the pool, into the pool, thereby creating an international incident.

Gideon Gitai is one of these far-leftist ex-Israelis who make it their life’s ambition to be as provocative as possible towards the state of Israel, due to their radical extremist views. It’s a shame that the Finnish state broadcaster YLE, gives air time to his highly politicized nonsense, let alone without an opposing view.

Back in 2006 (July 25) during the Lebanon war with Israel, (started by the Hezbollah) Israel shelled the Khiam UN observer station in which four UN observers, including a Finn, Jarno Mäkinen, were killed during a period in which Israeli forces were being attacked from the vicinity of the UN post. The Israelis never intended to kill UN personnel as Ran Cohen, a dovish colonel in the Israeli army reserves, stated back then:

“I have not even the slightest doubt that we’re talking here about a mistake, technical or otherwise. The army, as long as I’ve known it — and I’m fairly critical — never wants to hit UNIFIL forces,” Cohen said.”

In the fog of war all kinds of mishaps occur, even to the best of the best, including Israel, but that simple fact is never enough for the anti-Israel haters, in fact, it’s highly waited for fodder, to use in their propaganda machine which gladly distributes it to the cottage industry of anti-Israel organizations and supporters. This film should be viewed in that same light. KGS

NOTE: Avi Shlaim is interviewed in the documentary as well, it obviously to place in Helsinki 30.11.09, just before the Europe and Middle East seminar, where he was confronted by the Israeli ambassador, Avi Granot. I remember seeing the well lit room next to the seminar hall where both Gitai and Shlaim were greeting each other.

Ambassador Avi Granot on Shlaim:

Original title: Um-Shmum – Seitsemän tuntia kuolemaan
Um means the U.N. in Hebrew and shmum is a dismissive rhyme for it. In 2006 the Israeli military dropped a bomb in Khiam, regardless of the resistance from the U.N. The bomb killed four international observers. The director Gideon Gitai has moved to Finland from Israel; he had had enough of the aggressive politics of his former home country. In his documentary film Gitai describes Israel’s belittling attitude towards the international community, starting from the 1960’s. Leaning on the US, Israel has been able to carry out arbitrary, violent attacks without any consequences. The devastating story is examined through the U.N. logs. A voice is given to the victims of war, as well as veterans and international politicians, including the Minister for Foreign Affairs Erkki Tuomioja.

This pious do-ggoder might be more at home in Norway.

As for Erkki as an international politician?!

I could approach a thousand people and more likely than not – none would have ever heard of him.

There’s No Common Cultural Legacy For The Alt-Right

Still, is there something to it? Is there a common heritage that will cover El Greco and Hume and Dostoyevsky? Is there one that can include the Jacobites and the Jacobins? There is, but it is not racial, and white supremacists reject it because it rejects them. The unifying heritage of Europe is religious and philosophical. It is Jerusalem and Athens, in one famous formulation. Christian religion and Greek philosophy, filtered through Roman law and culture, are the foundation of European culture. The tensions, agreements, developments and settlements between these have shaped the Western world, and these roots of Western civilization are not congenial to white supremacy.

Christianity is universal in its message and Jewish in its origins. For centuries after its founding, Christianity’s center was the Mediterranean world, including Asia Minor and North Africa. Christianity has never been defined by race, and locally-grown racist heresies are only sustainable among those ignorant of Christianity’s teachings, origins and history.

Greek philosophy is likewise ill-suited to serve as a basis for white identity. It is either too universal (addressing the human condition in general) or too local—none of us live as citizens of an ancient Greek polis. Later philosophical developments in Europe, such as the philosophies of the Enlightenment, likewise tend to be too universal for white supremacists seeking a tribal identity. As for the scientific revolution that developed within Western culture (albeit with much borrowed from outside Europe), math doesn’t care what color someone is.

"More here"

War is being waged against Western culture from within which is in essence a war against Christianity and its moral origins in the Hebrew Bible. By attacking these Biblical foundations in the name of reason and human rights, the culture warriors of secularism are sawing off the branch on which they sit. The only way to defend Western civilisation is to reaffirm and restore its Biblical foundations. My argument is a development of ideas I first explored in my 2012 book The World Turned Upside Down: The Global Battle over God, Truth and Power.

We are living in an era which extols reason, science and human rights. These are said to be essential for progress, a civilised society and the betterment of humanity. Religion is said to be their antithesis, the source instead of superstitious mumbo-jumbo, oppression and backward-thinking.

Some of this hostility is being driven by the perceived threat from Islamic terrorism and the Islamisation of Western culture. However, this animus against religion has far deeper roots and can be traced back to what is considered the birthplace of Western reason, the 18th-century Enlightenment.

Actually, it goes back specifically to the French Enlightenment. In England and Scotland, the Enlightenment developed reason and political liberty within the framework of Biblical belief. In France, by contrast, anti-clericalism morphed into fundamental hostility to Christianity and to religion itself.

“Ecrasez l’infame,” said Voltaire (crush infamy) — the infamy to which he referred being not just the Church but Christianity, which he wanted to replace with the religion of reason, virtue and liberty, “drawn from the bosom of nature”.

Perfecting society

But this Enlightenment did not remove religion so much as pervert it. It took millenarian fantasies, the idea that the perfection of the world was at hand, and it secularised them. Instead of God producing heaven on earth, it would be mankind which would bring that about. Reason would create the perfect society and “progress” was the process by which utopia would be attained.
