Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: So we're going to talk about progressive anti zionism and
- 0:07Speaker 1: the poisonous legacy of Cold War hatred the language of
- 0:11Speaker 1: Soviet propaganda. So first off, let's start here. So Soviet
- 0:17Speaker 1: anti Zionism. So, and this is Wikipedia. This is leftist right.
- 0:23Speaker 1: This is not like a right wing thing. This is
- 0:25Speaker 1: leftist right. There's absolutely a left wing bias on Wikipedia.
- 0:31Speaker 1: What do they say Soviet anti Zionism. And by the way,
- 0:35Speaker 1: because there's a left wing bias, I mean they're going
- 0:38Speaker 1: to avoid doing anything that would put the Soviets in
- 0:41Speaker 1: a bad light if they can, if they can get
- 0:44Speaker 1: away with it. Soviet anti Zionism is an anti Zionist
- 0:48Speaker 1: and pro Arab doctrine promulgated in the Soviet Union during
- 0:52Speaker 1: the Cold War.
- 0:54Speaker 2: While the Soviet.
- 0:54Speaker 1: Union initially pursued a pro Zionist policy after World War
- 0:58Speaker 1: II due to its percent perception that the Jewish state
- 1:02Speaker 1: would be socialist and pro Soviet, its outlook on the
- 1:07Speaker 1: Arab Israeli conflict changed as Israel began to develop a
- 1:11Speaker 1: close relationship with the United States and aligned itself of
- 1:15Speaker 1: the Western Bloc. So immediately you see a geopolitical reason
- 1:19Speaker 1: for anti Zionist anti Israel propaganda. Right, and so this
- 1:26Speaker 1: kind of throws a bit of a wrench in the
- 1:27Speaker 1: works that there's a giant Jewish conspiracy, like Marxist Jewish conspira,
- 1:32Speaker 1: because here you had the only country they have rejected communism.
- 1:38Speaker 1: They went capitalist, they went you know, liberal democracy, which
- 1:42Speaker 1: I think is kind of an important point.
- 1:44Speaker 2: All right, let's move on to here.
- 1:47Speaker 1: The Soviet Union indeed engaged in an anti Semitic propaganda
- 1:51Speaker 1: campaign that targeted the United States among other regions, with
- 1:55Speaker 1: the aim of influencing perceptions, including those of academics, against Israel. Yeah,
- 2:02Speaker 1: they really went for the academics for everything, for every
- 2:05Speaker 1: you know, destabilizing, demoralizing idea, for every idea weapon, the
- 2:12Speaker 1: idea pathogen to use in their propaganda war and their
- 2:16Speaker 1: active measures war, their ideological war. Of course, the best
- 2:22Speaker 1: place to go is the academics, academia, because they're just
- 2:25Speaker 1: gonna pump it out. It just becomes this self renewing thing, right,
- 2:29Speaker 1: They just recruit new, younger people and then they go
- 2:31Speaker 1: in and they just eventually you have what you have now,
- 2:34Speaker 1: which is four hundred and fifty psychology professors that are
- 2:39Speaker 1: you know, Marxists, compared to one conservative Soviet propaganda. The
- 2:44Speaker 1: Soviet Union used various forms of media, including books, newspapers,
- 2:48Speaker 1: and radio broadcasts to disseminate anti Israel and anti Semitic propaganda.
- 2:52Speaker 1: They framed Zionism as a form of racism. Tell me
- 2:56Speaker 1: if any of this is sounding familiar, imperialism, colonialism, often
- 3:02Speaker 1: drawing parallels between Israel and South Africa's apartheid regime. This
- 3:07Speaker 1: was done to appeal not only to the Arab world,
- 3:09Speaker 1: but to sway opinion in the West, including among academics.
- 3:13Speaker 1: So what do they say again? They say it's a
- 3:15Speaker 1: form of racism, imperialism, and colonialism. It's all the same shit.
- 3:21Speaker 1: They just use the same stuff on everything. They doub't
- 3:25Speaker 1: like we've seen the pattern, have we not? All right,
- 3:29Speaker 1: let's move on to here the language of Soviet propaganda.
- 3:31Speaker 1: This an article from Quillette. Okay, the claim that Israel
- 3:36Speaker 1: is committing a genocide against Palestinians is among the longest
- 3:39Speaker 1: running lies told about Israel genocide. Israeli style Zionist engineered
- 3:45Speaker 1: at genocide, the final solution of the Palestinian question. These
- 3:50Speaker 1: may look like snippets from some recent campus proclamation. Of course,
- 3:54Speaker 1: they do, but they are not. They appeared in a
- 3:58Speaker 1: Soviet pamphlet titled Zionists count on Terror, published in nineteen
- 4:03Speaker 1: eighty four. What an apt year for it to be
- 4:05Speaker 1: published by Novasti, a Soviet foreign propaganda arm masquerading as
- 4:11Speaker 1: a news agency. This pocket sized brochure was meant to
- 4:15Speaker 1: promote the Soviet view of Israel and Zionism to English
- 4:19Speaker 1: language audiences. So there is the pamphlet. It's a real pamphlet.
- 4:26Speaker 2: What's this. Novosity was a.
- 4:27Speaker 1: Soviet foreign propaganda agency that produced pamphlets and other materials
- 4:31Speaker 1: to promote the Soviet Union's views and policies. Let's see,
- 4:35Speaker 1: the pamphlet used the words genocide, terror, racist over three
- 4:38Speaker 1: hundred times. That's from Zionist Count on Terror. English speaking
- 4:43Speaker 1: readers around the world were meant to understand that Zionists
- 4:46Speaker 1: were genocidal and racist settler colonialists. Does any of this
- 4:52Speaker 1: sound familiar? English speakers around the world were meant to
- 4:56Speaker 1: understand that Zionists were genocidal and racist settler colonialists who
- 5:00Speaker 1: deployed Nazi methods in the service of global imperialism while
- 5:06Speaker 1: suppressing the anti colonial national liberation struggle of Palestinian people.
- 5:11Speaker 1: Does any of this sound familiar to anyone? It's all
- 5:14Speaker 1: the same shit that the far left uses on everything.
- 5:18Speaker 1: It's all the same. It's the exact same language. Like,
- 5:22Speaker 1: there's a reason the far left uses the same language
- 5:25Speaker 1: to describe Israel and often seeming actually to just be
- 5:29Speaker 1: talking about Jews in general as they used to describe
- 5:32Speaker 1: every Western country and European people, you know, genocidal, racist, settler, colonialist, right.
- 5:40Speaker 1: This is because the language all comes from the same place.
- 5:43Speaker 1: Soviet active measures propaganda Uri best went Off told us
- 5:46Speaker 1: all about this.
- 5:47Speaker 3: Stuff is a slow process which we call either ideological
- 5:52Speaker 3: subversion or active measures actively near Priatia in the language
- 5:57Speaker 3: of the KGB, or psychological warfare. What it basically means
- 6:01Speaker 3: is to change the perception of reality of every American
- 6:07Speaker 3: to such an extent that, despite of the abundance of information,
- 6:12Speaker 3: no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in
- 6:15Speaker 3: the interests of defending themselves, their families, their community, and
- 6:20Speaker 3: their country.
- 6:21Speaker 1: Let's see, isn't this forty year old Soviet propaganda pamphlet
- 6:24Speaker 1: speaking the language of today's progressives.
- 6:27Speaker 2: It is. It's exactly the same shit.
- 6:30Speaker 1: This is the zombie propaganda from the Soviet Union. Right,
- 6:34Speaker 1: they planted the seed and then it just has grown
- 6:36Speaker 1: on its own. It just took over. It's an idea
- 6:39Speaker 1: pathogen right leftism, wokeism. This is all just the same stuff, right, progressives,
- 6:45Speaker 1: it's a mind virus. Or to be more precise, today's
- 6:49Speaker 1: progressives are speaking the language of Soviet propaganda. Again, you're
- 6:54Speaker 1: the best one. I've told us all about this stuff, Right,
- 6:56Speaker 1: he warned us all about this stuff. It just persists.
- 7:00Speaker 1: Zombie anti Zionism from Isabella Tabarovsky. This is from Tablet magazine.
- 7:07Speaker 1: Those who try to explain the contemporary left's anti Israel
- 7:11Speaker 1: derangement by pointing to the latest academic fashions such as
- 7:15Speaker 1: critical race theory in intersectionality, or to specific news events
- 7:20Speaker 1: of the day often missed the point that the precise
- 7:23Speaker 1: language used by the anti Israel left today to condemn
- 7:27Speaker 1: the Jewish state has been a conventional part of left
- 7:30Speaker 1: wing discourse for decades, and that it originated in the USSR.
- 7:36Speaker 1: So you've got critical race theory and interest that's all
- 7:39Speaker 1: just built on the foundation that Soviet propaganda built. Right,
- 7:44Speaker 1: that's all just been erected on the foundations of the
- 7:47Speaker 1: original propaganda of the original terrible ideas. The extraordinary fidelity
- 7:53Speaker 1: with which the progressives reproduced the ancient tropes and warped
- 7:58Speaker 1: logic of Soviet anti n Zioni is propaganda, complete with
- 8:02Speaker 1: specific fictions and terms of abuse race questions. How is
- 8:07Speaker 1: it that such a multitude of groups across the globe,
- 8:10Speaker 1: from all manner of communists and Trotskyists Trotskyists to non
- 8:15Speaker 1: aligned political figures, non communist, New Left, Pan Africans and
- 8:19Speaker 1: Cuban revolutionaries adopted this language so completely and simultaneously. The
- 8:24Speaker 1: answer is that they followed Moscow, which targeted them all
- 8:28Speaker 1: with a colossal anti Zionist campaign, pushing out masses of
- 8:32Speaker 1: printed matter, communicating these ideas in multi lingual radio broadcasts,
- 8:37Speaker 1: and using media and diplomatic channels to influence opinions within countries.
- 8:41Speaker 2: Quote here.
- 8:43Speaker 1: The zombie like repetition of state sponsored propaganda from a
- 8:47Speaker 1: dead empire explains why the anti imperialist, anti colonialist prattle
- 8:53Speaker 1: of today's college students feels like deja vu. It's all
- 8:57Speaker 1: the same shit, all right, let's see Cold War dynamics.
- 9:02Speaker 1: During the Cold War, anti Semitism was occasionally exploited as
- 9:06Speaker 1: part of a broader anti Western propaganda. The Soviet Union
- 9:10Speaker 1: portrayed Israel, which had strong ties to the United States,
- 9:14Speaker 1: as an imperialist proxy. This narrative painted Jews and Zionists
- 9:19Speaker 1: as part of an international conspiracy against the Soviet State
- 9:23Speaker 1: geopolitical right, geopolitically important, allied with the United States.
- 9:28Speaker 2: It's the Cold War.
- 9:30Speaker 1: There's tons of propaganda flying around trying to undermine each
- 9:34Speaker 1: each side trying to undermine the other, and not worrying
- 9:38Speaker 1: too much about being ethical about it. Let's see, I
- 9:42Speaker 1: want to show you something else here. Hold on, So
- 9:44Speaker 1: this is from a CIA document. All right, let's go
- 9:47Speaker 1: to the top here.
- 9:49Speaker 2: This is from.
- 9:49Speaker 1: Nineteen seventy one intelligence memorandum Soviet Reactionaries Hating Jews and
- 9:56Speaker 1: loving stalin nineteen seventy one. Okay, we're going to talk
- 10:00Speaker 1: about at Czechoslovakia. Now, what happened in Czechoslovakia in nineteen
- 10:05Speaker 1: sixty eight. On August twenty, nineteen sixty eight, the Soviet
- 10:08Speaker 1: Union led Warsaw Pact troops in an invasion of Czechoslovakia
- 10:13Speaker 1: to crack down on reformist trends in Prague. Okay, what
- 10:18Speaker 1: follows that This was written in nineteen seventy one this memorandum.
- 10:21Speaker 1: The Soviet hand in propagating anti Semitic themes in Czechoslovakia
- 10:26Speaker 1: is also revealed in the December publication by the Slovak
- 10:30Speaker 1: Pravda publishing house in Bratislava of Beware Zionism. The book,
- 10:36Speaker 1: written by two Soviets, Yuri Ivanov and Let's See Yevseyev,
- 10:43Speaker 1: who has been described as a Paranoiic anti Semite, is
- 10:47Speaker 1: a vicious attack on Zionism for anti Soviet activity and
- 10:52Speaker 1: for instigation of the Czechoslovak reforms. The new book is
- 10:58Speaker 1: actually revised version of Ivanov's book bearing the same title,
- 11:01Speaker 1: that was first published in the USSR in March nineteen
- 11:04Speaker 1: sixty nine and reissued in May nineteen seventy in a
- 11:08Speaker 1: press run of two hundred thousand two hundred thousand, significantly
- 11:11Speaker 1: larger than the nineteen sixty nine edition. The May edition,
- 11:15Speaker 1: like the recent Slovak one, was updated and included a
- 11:18Speaker 1: more direct implication of Zionism in the Czechoslovak reforms, as
- 11:24Speaker 1: well as in events in Hungary in nineteen fifty six
- 11:27Speaker 1: and the Polish Spring of nineteen sixty eight. The publication
- 11:31Speaker 1: of the book in Czechoslovakia coincides with increasing exhortation in
- 11:36Speaker 1: the Soviet Union on the need for vigilance and anti
- 11:40Speaker 1: Zionist propaganda. Okay, so you're starting to get a picture
- 11:44Speaker 1: now of the Soviet Union's relationship to all of this,
- 11:47Speaker 1: to the word Zionism, right, they were using it. It
- 11:52Speaker 1: was important geopolitically, it was important internally because they would
- 11:55Speaker 1: use it as a scapegoat for dissent, right, and it
- 11:59Speaker 1: was important from a foreign propaganda, from the active measures
- 12:05Speaker 1: propaganda aspect as well. The demoralization of the West because
- 12:11Speaker 1: it's it's it fits in perfectly into the oppressed oppressor,
- 12:17Speaker 1: zero sum game narrative that we see adopted by the
- 12:22Speaker 1: the let by progressives, the progressive left, by.
- 12:25Speaker 2: The woke everywhere in the West.
- 12:28Speaker 1: Right, it fits in perfectly oppressed oppressor. Again, you could
- 12:31Speaker 1: just take Zionist out or and replace it with Christian
- 12:34Speaker 1: and it works just fine for any woke person, for
- 12:37Speaker 1: any you know, Marxist professor, they're just as happy with both, right,
- 12:42Speaker 1: because it's all the same shit and it all comes
- 12:45Speaker 1: from the same damn place. Again, your Abezminov told us
- 12:49Speaker 1: about all of this Soviet propaganda demoralization.
- 12:55Speaker 2: This is what it is.
- 12:56Speaker 1: So if anybody wants to know my feelings on all
- 13:00Speaker 1: of this, right, this is it. I've just given you
- 13:03Speaker 1: a great explanation in detail. This is what I think.
- 13:08Speaker 1: So when I see the lunatics, when I see the
- 13:11Speaker 1: lunatics screaming death to Zionists and death to Canada, and
- 13:16Speaker 1: I recognize it's all the same shit and it comes
- 13:19Speaker 1: from the same place, That's why I have no time
- 13:21Speaker 1: for it. But I'm not woke, right, so I don't
- 13:24Speaker 1: like it. I don't like woke ideology. I don't accept
- 13:28Speaker 1: their oppressed oppressor zero sum ideology. To me, it just
- 13:32Speaker 1: is obviously all the same shit. Anyway, that's all I'm
- 13:36Speaker 1: going to say about that. Please like, share, and subscribe.
- 13:39Speaker 1: Subscribing really helps me out. I thank you for that.
- 13:42Speaker 1: I will see you next time.
