Israelis—European Jews with Aryan features—employ Nazi-style racial
mockery against Palestinians, targeting their Semitic appearance in
scenes reminiscent of 1930s Germany.
The statistics are as chilling as they are revealing. Four out of five Jewish Israelis express no concern for the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. In the immediate aftermath of October 7th, as Israeli bombs began falling on Palestinian civilians, optimism about the country's future shot up dramatically among the Israeli public. This was not the response of a people in genuine fear for their survival—this was the euphoria of a population finally given permission to unleash its darkest impulses.
What we are witnessing in Israel today is the logical endpoint of a process that Hannah Arendt warned us about decades ago: the transformation of ordinary people into willing participants in systematic brutality through the machinery of a fascist state. It is what happens when a society becomes so thoroughly "nazified"—to borrow the stark but accurate term from American Exception podcast host Aaron Good—that mass murder becomes not just acceptable, but cause for celebration.
This is not hyperbole. Israeli citizens have been filmed setting up lawn chairs to watch the bombing of Gaza as entertainment. Children create music videos mocking Arab women trapped under rubble. Songs celebrating the death of "Amalek"—a biblical reference to enemies marked for total destruction—top the Israeli music charts. These are not the actions of a few extremists; they represent the mainstream response of a society that has been systematically conditioned to view Palestinian life as worthless.
The God-Given Right to Rape
The process of nazification doesn't happen overnight. It requires years, even decades, of careful cultivation. It begins with the dehumanization of the target population—Palestinians branded as "human animals" or "terrorists" regardless of age or circumstance. It continues with the creation of a mythology of perpetual victimhood that justifies any atrocity as "self-defense." It culminates in a population so thoroughly indoctrinated that they protest for the right to rape Palestinian prisoners while they watch children being starved to death and feel nothing but satisfaction.
This psychological transformation serves a clear political purpose. As leaked cabinet transcripts now reveal, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu deliberately chose to "blow up the ceasefire and starve Gaza's population" against the advice of his own military and security officials. But such a policy requires public support, or at least public indifference. A normal society would recoil from deliberately starving children. A nazified society celebrates it.
The Israeli polling data shows the success of this psychological conditioning. When presented with the reality of what their government is doing—the systematic destruction of hospitals, schools, and refugee camps; the cutting off of food, water, and medical supplies to an imprisoned population; the bombing of civilian areas with a casualty rate that includes thousands of children—the overwhelming majority of Israeli Jews respond with approval or indifference.
This is what makes the Israeli case so particularly disturbing: the transparency of the process. Unlike historical precedents where populations claimed ignorance of their government's crimes, Israelis are watching the genocide unfold in real-time on their television screens and social media feeds. They see the images of dead children, the footage of destroyed homes, the testimonies of survivors. And their response is to demand more.
Aryan Jews mocking Semites.
“What began as domestic Israeli thought control has become a transnational authoritarian project, transforming supposedly free societies into enforcement mechanisms for genocidal ideology”
Returning Nazification Back to the West
The psychological mechanisms at work here are well documented. Stanley Milgram's studies showed how ordinary people could be induced to inflict terrible suffering on others through the manipulation of authority and social pressure. The Stanford Prison Experiment revealed how quickly people can adapt to systems of brutality when given permission by institutional power. What we see in Israel today is these psychological principles deployed on a national scale.
The nazification process also requires the elimination of dissent and the marginalization of conscience. Israeli peace activists face harassment, imprisonment, and violence. Journalists who report accurately on Palestinian suffering are branded as traitors. The educational system is restructured to promote nationalist mythology over historical truth. Alternative voices are systematically silenced until the only acceptable discourse is one that justifies or celebrates Palestinian suffering.
Even more chilling, this nazification process has metastasized beyond Israel's borders into Western societies. Universities that once prided themselves on academic freedom now systematically suppress Palestinian voices and punish students for basic solidarity. Western media outlets fire journalists for accurately reporting on Palestinian casualties or for simply stating that Palestinian children are human beings deserving of life. Politicians across Europe and North America compete to criminalize Palestinian symbols, ban Palestinian cultural _expression_, and redefine antisemitism to shield Israeli war crimes from criticism.
The same tactics used to silence Israeli peace activists—harassment, doxxing, career destruction—are now deployed against Western citizens who dare to show empathy for Palestinian suffering. What began as domestic Israeli thought control has become a transnational authoritarian project, transforming supposedly free societies into enforcement mechanisms for genocidal ideology.
As mentioned before, perhaps most chilling is the enthusiastic participation of children in this culture of cruelty. Videos circulate showing young Israelis singing songs about destroying Gaza, children celebrating Palestinian deaths, and teenagers posing with weapons while making jokes about 'hunting Arabs’. This is not innocent nationalism—this is the deliberate cultivation of a generation that will see mass murder as normal, even praiseworthy. In fact, Israel has become the only studied society where the young are more extreme right-wing and fascist than their elders. And this pathology is spreading back to the West.
Zio-(Ashke)Nazis
A not unimportant detail is that most of these videos feature white Ashkenazi Jews mocking the Semitic features of Palestinians, in a fashion disturbingly similar to how Nazis portrayed their victims. The bitter irony—that those who weaponize accusations of 'antisemitism' are themselves engaged in the most literal form of anti-Semitic racial mockery—appears entirely lost on the perpetrators.
Or perhaps more disturbingly, it is not lost on them at all. The nazification has become complete—the mimicry is no longer unconscious but deliberate. "I felt like a Nazi," one Israeli soldier admitted anonymously to an Israeli newspaper. What we are witnessing is the culmination of decades of indoctrinated envy for Nazi power, cloaked in the language of victimhood, finally given permission to become what they had feigned to hate: Zio-(Ashke)nazis.
The international implications of this transformation cannot be ignored. A nazified Israel, armed with nuclear weapons and backed by American military aid, represents a threat not just to Palestinians but to the world. A society that can celebrate the starvation of children will not limit its brutality to one population or one region. History shows us that fascist movements, once unleashed, tend to expand their list of enemies.
The world has seen this before. We know how this story ends. The question is whether the international community — including Russia and China — will act to prevent the completion of this genocide, or whether it will stand by and watch as an entire people are erased while their killers celebrate. History will judge not just the perpetrators, but all those who had the power to stop it and chose silence instead.
