Today’s episode is an effort to unpack, chronologically and objectively, the history of Israel-Palestine for the past 4,000 years. The discussion focuses on the religious, cultural and political history of the region – from the time of Abraham, the father of both Judaism and Islam – until the day of the Hamas attack. We hope you find it helpful in developing a more nuanced and grounded assessment of the current situation.

The world watches in disbelief as Yahweh-Netanyahu, the Scourge of Palestine, sacrifices more Palestinian families to take their lands, and sheds more Arab blood to feed his ancient bloodthirsty god Yahweh-Jehovah. As Jewish high-priest Bebe Netanyahu prepares the sacrificial fires, and orders the military sacrifice of his traditional hosts, the innocent families of Palestine, we all watch like silent lambs paralyzed with fear of what comes next. . . . . we’ve just been terrorized by Jericho 2! The historic Sumerian, Babylonian, Jewish, Christian, and Muslim god “Yahweh-Jehovah”, was recruited by power hungry Hebrew priest Ezra as his champion god around 450 BCE, which he sexed up and portrayed as an omnipotent or “holocaustically destructive colonizing force” in Jericho. The first criminal colonization of Palestine was performed with colonial terrorism, defined as: “The use of violence and threats of violence to gain political control over indigenous people and their land wealth.” Jericho’s riches were its enduring water source. According to Ezra, the unseen entity Yahweh was a mysterious spiritual force which needed blood to enter and exist in this physical world, therefore Abraham and Yahweh formed a blood cult to that end. Ezra claimed that Yahweh demanded Hebrew blood from newborn male penises, and a pre-existing African affectation known as circumcision was adopted by Ezra to become a sacrificial ritual or blood contract. Ezra also claimed that Yahweh made even greater demands for human blood, by orchestrating land theft through genocide in Jericho. According to another writer named Moses, Yahweh trained his chosen people in colonial terrorism and genocide for 40 years in the Sinai, and then unleashed covetous hellfire in Jericho. Historically, wandering Hebrew tribes may have been the “marauding sea people” who famously terrorized the Levant. Yahweh’s chosen people are doing it again in the 21st century!
