| PST Disorder: A Glimpse Into Israeli Collective Psychosis |

| The people who rained Lebanon with ‘more than a million cluster bombs’ are projecting their murderous zeal onto their victims and even onto their victims to come, argues Gilad Atzmon. “It is hard to believe, but only 60 years after the Holocaust the Jewish people is once again in danger of being destroyed - at least in its own state, where 40 percent of the world's Jews are concentrated. Evidence of the severity of the danger can be found not only in the explicit threats by Iran's president, which are backed up by an arms program that would provide the means to carry them out. It can also be found in recent articles in the European press that discuss the possibility of Israel's 'disappearance' as a reasonable 'working assumption.' Additional evidence regarding the threat level exists in the fact that not only is Israel the only country in the world that is threatened with destruction, it is also the only state whose right to exist is the focus of international polls, with many respondents answering negatively. That is an honor that even Iran, North Korea and apartheid-era South Africa were never granted.” - Yair Sheleg, Haaretz. While many may find it heartening or amusing that even an Israeli right winger cannot see a ray of light at the end of the Zionist tunnel, it is rather disconcerting to read that Israelis are already seriously contemplating their next Shoah. I would argue here that it is exactly this form of deadly meditation that turns Israel, Israelis, global Zionists and Neocons into the gravest enemies of world peace. |

| #1 The man trained as a musician, then escaped to England to study philosophy. He's made a successful career there making ethnic fusion music, and writing articles that make it clear how deeply he resents the twin stains of Judaism and Zionism on his soul, preening himself for having escaped the clutches of the inhuman horde. Here he presents his psychiatric diagnosis, which he is singularly unqualified to make. Mr. Atzmon, you were hired to amuse us by playing the sax. Please give up your pretensions and bloody well play. |
