Tucker’s Remarks at Charlie Kirk’s Memorial Service

Lew,
President Trump and Charlie Kirk’s widow Erika both affirmed the official narrative by stating suspect Tyler Robinson, who hasn’t yet been convicted in a court of law, is Charlie’s killer. Tucker cryptically deviates from that perspective by citing his favorite biblical story where Christ is telling the truth and men conspire to kill him. Link.

When Your Best Friend Is a “Nasty Little Sparta”
Eric Margolis referred last year to the long-ago observation by Arthur Koestler that Israel risked becoming a nasty Sparta-style warlike regime, hated, hyper aggressive, ruleless and souless.
Koestler was born poor in 1905, 120 years ago this month. A Hungarian Jew and a writer, he bounced around for a while, living for a short time in Palestine (the British Mandate) in 1926, and then working in Berlin for the infamous Russian Zionist Vladimir (later called Ze’ev) Jabotinsky.
I only know about Jabotinsky because I worked in the Pentagon 25 years ago, and all my bosses knew about him, and some idolized him. He is specifically known for “Revisionist Zionism,” something I never heard of, because frankly, in the United States, there should be no need to be experts on the historical evolution of other people’s founding ideologies.
Revisionist Zionism exchanges the ideas of Ben Gurion, of European and Russian Jews settling in the land of Palestine as individuals, for a more expansionist variation. Jabotinsky’s Zionism came with the assumption of Jewish sovereignty over the entire region, not only the River to the Sea, but covering both sides of the Jordan River, and far beyond.
Bibi has the map, and we think about it, if we think about Israel at all, as Greater Israel. It’s pretty big for 9 million Jews to manage, but like Sparta, there are millions of helots to help. We’ll come back to this technicality in a second.
Arthur Koestler himself had a bold and productive life, which included living in the Soviet Union and becoming a communist, being imprisoned in Spain by Franco, imprisoned again in France, joining the French Foreign Legion, rejecting communism, all while recording his intellectual evolution and writing incredible books, befriending many intellectuals of the 20th century, including George Orwell. In 1944, he met with Menachem Begin of Irgun in Palestine in 1944, and soundly failed to convince him to abandon militant attacks and accept a two-state solution. In his memoirs, he realized he had been naive to think his suggestions might be considered where militancy and rabid urgency was the order of the day.
Revisionist Zionism, used by the greater Israel crowd, the militant genocidaires, and more moderate Zionists, is being rehabilitated for western consumption, as this 2006 Jerusalem Post opinion piece explains. Rehabilitating Jabotinsky was hasbara for the early 2000’s as Americans were understanding, what Charlie Kirk began to understand two years ago, that the US government has and continues to be lied into a series of Middle Eastern wars for the flawed and covetous myth of Greater Israel.
Two decades and seven or more countries destroyed, destabilized and decapitated later, we come to the present day, and as Americans, we need to think about what happens when your friends need help but just want more of the same. Western society – concurring and in concordance with the rise of the central state – has traded rugged and tough with broken and in need of counseling, so counseling it is.
America, your friend Israel is in bad shape. They are in constant conflict, and a danger, spiritually and physically, to everyone around them. Israel celebrates its assassin creed; it views its neighbors as a wild dog considers a flock in a coop – kill them all with bloody abandon and leave them to rot.
It has become a nasty little Sparta, in a political world that is soft, conciliatory, compromised, and corrupt. The world of national leaders fully recognize the murderer at their table, and we know this from their sideways glances, raised eyebrows and hushed murmurs in hallways.
As the drumbeat of the populations they rule over is becoming undeniable, the planets’ politicians have to do something. What can be done with a nasty Spartan regime? Well, in a normal world, we would not trade or assist their genocide, cover for the endless attacks and assassinations, or the support the expansionary racism of the State of Israel. Much as a global response to a natural disaster, we would come together to constrain bad state behavior and save people, but this natural disaster has been going on since 1948, nonstop; perhaps we are inured to it.
Helot-like, we serve Israel’s aggression, politics and economy because that’s what our parents did, and our grandparents. We don’t ask why, even if we grumble at times.
Greater Israel is possible today, and may be achieved, because the world is full of her helots, and DC in particular is an outpost of Sparta, filled with congressional and presidential slaves, dependent labor that allows the masters to be full-time warriors.
In fact, these full-time warriors have many wars, not just currently, but planned for the future, as with the case to liberate northern Cyprus from the Turks. This, and other wars, will be pursued after the elimination through destruction, murder, starvation and disease of 90% of the Gazan population, and the development of Gazan real estate, and most importantly, Gazan gas fields. These fields are bordered to an extent by Cyprus, so creating a Cypriotic helotry is important to the Israeli warriors.
Americans don’t like to believe they are little more than helots, because being serf or slave to a foreign power is obviously contrary to our own founding mythology.
So maybe the question is not what to do when your best friend is a nasty Spartan, but what do you do when you realize he views you, your family and country, and your political and military infrastructure as part of their serviceable, if not particularly bright, helotry?
This kind of counseling takes a different path, more along the lines of “It’s not you, it’s me” or a typical aircraft safety briefing where you must affix your oxygen mask securely before assisting others with theirs.
The world may, or may not, be able to help Gaza two years into the latest iteration of frenzied Zionist slaughter and genocide to create a real estate bonanza, as Bezalel Smotrich put it, himself born in an illegal settlement in occupied Syria 45 years ago. I would not underestimate the power of 8 billion creative minds to come up with something. There is always karma, and the way things shift over time.
The city of Sparta ended as a result of a loss of population (check), economic decline (check), and inability to support a large army by itself (check). Sparta’s allies became resentful of its dominance, and rebelled against its rule. Sparta was invaded and subordinated. Spartans, a minority in their own land, had always feared a helot uprising, or revolt, and eventually this happened. Today, we are not Gaza, even as the majority in the US and the world support Palestinians and wish to see them freed, fed, restored to their land. If anything, we are more like the Shia Druze, who have been made citizens of Israel, and fight for it. But it looks like the western helots of Israel are in revolt, and the collapse of Israel as a warrior state is coming. Historians will wonder if the Zionist spasm of the 20th century was worth it, and Jews everywhere will rediscover their religion and say Never Again.

Regaining Freedom of Motion in the Body Mind and Spirit
A key goal in writing this publication has been to provide a voice to forgotten victims of medicine so I try to respond to all the messages I receive—particularly those in dire need. However, as this publication has gotten larger, it’s become harder and harder for me to adequately do that due to the volume of correspondences I receive. For this reason, I decided to have monthly open threads where readers can ask whatever they want and tie that into a brief and insightful topic.
In a previous article, I shared some of my views on the back and neck pain industry—particularly how tragic it is that so many people are chronically afflicted by these conditions and that safe and effective treatments for spinal pain have been sidelined so unsafe and ineffective treatments can stay in business.
Sadly this issue appears again and again in medicine (e.g., we all just saw how safe and effective treatments for COVID-19 were kept off the market so the pandemic profiteers could make a killing with bad drugs). This I believe is because the existing economic model incentives indefinitely providing mediocre “treatments” to patients rather than innovative ones which solve the issue (and thus eliminate future sales).
In turn, I have seen many different effective treatments for spinal pain throughout my lifetime, but at the core, my perspectives on the subject have been shaped by my belief that one of the most important things in life is freedom within the body, mind, and spirit.
For example, consider watching this one minute video from Skylab (a now decommissioned space station) and observing how it makes you feel.
After a bit of looking, I found out that gibbons can swing through trees at 35 miles per hour and found numerous unbelievable videos of how they can fly through forest canopies with minimal effort while doing numerous feats that look almost impossible (and thus has been extensively researched). Of the videos I came across, this was the one I was the most impressed by.
When I saw the final video, I immediately began imagining what it would be like to be able to move like that. While we can’t (although I have seen movement arts that confer human beings an incredible amount of freedom of motion such as skiing), it is possible to have that degree of freedom in the mind and spirit and a big part of why I write here is so that I can help share that freedom of motion with you.

The Ukrainian Ambassador to Poland Admitted That His Co-Ethnics Don’t Want To Assimilate
The combination of many Ukrainians remaining adherents of Bandera’s ideology, their ultra-nationalists’ claims to parts of Poland, and their Ambassador to Poland’s confirmation that his co-ethnics don’t want to assimilate understandably constitute a latent national security threat to Poland.
Polish-Ukrainian relations have been increasingly strained over the past few years due to the former grain dispute, the ongoing Volhynia Genocide dispute, and the influx of Ukrainian refugees into Poland. It’s this last element that’s arguably the most sensitive since it’s become a part of daily life for most Poles. Not only do a growing number of them object to state benefits being provided to this community, but they’re also displeased with many of them refusing to assimilate into Polish society.
Ukrainian Ambassador to Poland Vasily Bodnar inadvertently made matters much worse in a recent Facebook post where he confirmed that his co-ethnics don’t want to assimilate. The context concerns the state’s decision over the summer to allow Ukrainian to be taught as the second foreign language in schools if parents request it, the human resources are available, and the school gives its approval. Some Poles are concerned that this move will exacerbate existing societal divisions if implemented at scale.
Bodnar was responding to these concerns, referencing the abovementioned law and Ukrainian refugees’ contribution to the Polish economy among other points, when he misguidedly added that “We want to help our children preserve our identity, contribute to their return home to Ukraine when the security situation allows it. We are for socialization and integration, but it is clear that we are not for assimilation. Most of our refugees are not here of their own will but because of an ongoing terrible war.”
While also writing how “grateful” they are, the above post suggested that they’re not “grateful” enough to only learn Polish and thus fully assimilate. Post-WWII Poland became one of the world’s most homogenous societies, which was the first time in this over-millennium-old civilization-state’s history that it was almost exclusively ethnic Polish and Roman Catholic since it began incorporating East Slavs and Orthodox Christians in the late 10th century, only for this to abruptly change from 2022 onwards.
Even though Bodnar insisted that “we have no intentions of interfering in the internal affairs of Poland”, leader of the “Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists” (OUN) Bogdan Chervak ominously warned last fall that “Poles are playing with fire” in response to a shitpost map of Greater Poland on social media. That scandal was analyzed here and included a warning about how Ukrainian ultra-nationalists inspired by former OUN chief Stepan Bandera might resort to terrorism to advance their own claims to Poland.
Last month’s Bandera flag scandal in Warsaw’s largest stadium prompted President Karol Nawrocki to propose a law that would criminalize Bandera’s anti-Polish ideology whose adherents carried out the Volhynia Genocide of over 100,000 Poles. The combination of this ideology’s continued prevalence among Ukrainians, their ultra-nationalists’ claims to parts of Poland, and Bodnar’s confirmation that his co-ethnics don’t want to assimilate understandably constitute a latent national security threat.
Therefore, while Ukrainian can legally be taught as the second foreign language in Polish schools, Nawrocki and his allies would do well to discourage them from approving such requests on national security grounds. It would be best if the law was changed, but the ruling liberal-globalist coalition might not support such an initiative from the conservative opposition. One way or another, Poland must ensure that all Ukrainians assimilate, otherwise they might one day threaten its territorial integrity.

Lawmakers Should Endure the Consequences of Their Policies
Sundance over at The Conservative Treehouse brought to my attention an effort by some House Republicans to increase private security for members of Congress. The Treehouse links to an article from Politico that describes one budgeting option that would grant as much as $25,000 each month to individual lawmakers so that they may “have access to around-the-clock personal security.” These security guarantees would be in addition to current levels of federal spending for lawmakers’ safety — including those funds that assist Capitol Police in partnering with state and local law enforcement.
Over a haunting still image that shows defenseless Ukrainian immigrant Iryna Zarutska sitting on a North Carolina train just before a black man brutally stabbed her from behind and murdered her last month, Sundance poses this question: “What incentive exists to make sure American society is safe from domestic regional violence, if the representatives of the regions don’t ever have to concern themselves with such matters?”
It is an excellent question. It is astounding to me that Democrats (and squishy RINOs) can get up in front of television cameras and demand gun confiscation while insisting on taxpayer-funded security details for themselves. Ordinary people can’t afford private security. That’s precisely why they have a natural right to defend their lives in the best ways that they can — and why the Second Amendment explicitly protects that right in the Constitution. Lawmakers who walk around with armed guards have no business disarming citizens.
Before Nancy Pelosi, Hakeem Jeffries, or Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez moans, “It’s different because members of Congress are public figures,” allow me to say, “Hogwash!” Most Americans can’t identify federal lawmakers. Even the more famous ones look completely different in real life without an inch of makeup on their faces. But try walking down certain city streets with a red “Make America Great Again” hat for everyone to see! Or try waving an American flag in neighborhoods filled with foreigners who view that flag with contempt!
Regular Americans understand that they are sitting ducks in some parts of the United States. If Kyle Rittenhouse had been unarmed amid the Antifa-BLM riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin five years ago, he would not be alive today. Because of his heroic actions, Democrat politicians have painted a target on Kyle’s back for the rest of his life. Why should members of Congress receive thousands of dollars of taxpayer-funded security each month when Kyle does not?
This brings us to a larger point. Why should members of Congress be insulated from the consequences of their destructive policies? In the Rittenhouse case, the Antifa-BLM riots of 2020 caused billions of dollars in property damage and resulted in numerous deaths across the country. They were the most costly riots in American history. None of the destruction would have occurred had Democrat mayors, governors, and lawmakers not cheered on the arson, violence, and murder.
Vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris and other prominent Democrats in Congress openly promoted leftist fundraising platforms that promised to bail rioters out of jail. It was one of the most brazen examples of elected officials actively inciting violent crimes across the United States — actions that sensible observers would describe as “insurrection” against the U.S. government and the American people — yet no lawmakers were ever held accountable for their crimes.
The same Democrats who fueled that summer of fire and bloodshed simultaneously demanded that regular Americans — including Kyle Rittenhouse — be disarmed. Consider how outrageous those dual policy positions really are. While Democrat lawmakers encouraged Antifa and BLM domestic terrorists to burn down businesses, drag people out of their vehicles, and put Americans in harm’s way, they had the temerity to call for the repeal of the Second Amendment and the confiscation of Americans’ weapons.
Anybody with any appreciation for American history knows that the Founding Fathers included explicit protections for gun ownership within the Second Amendment of the Constitution precisely as a check on government overreach. Their experience with British Redcoats taught them that armed citizens are the ultimate safeguard against government tyranny. Twenty-first-century Americans who have perhaps forgotten why civilian gun ownership is an indispensable component of true human liberty need only look at footage of Minneapolis, Kenosha, or D.C. burning during the summer of 2020 while Democrats denounced armed citizens as “racists.” Lawmakers with security details can survive Democrat-sponsored riots. Ordinary citizens without the “privilege” of self-defense are sacrificial victims.
Taking another giant step back from the Democrats’ 2020 Antifa-BLM riots, consider all the ways that U.S. lawmakers have made Americans less safe over the last fifty years. Since the ’70s, Americans have consistently highlighted (1) crime and (2) illegal immigration as significant challenges to their way of life. Knowing this, Democrat and Republican politicians have cycled through various promises, lies, and excuses over the last five decades as they pretend to fight crime and illegal immigration while really doing little to address either threat.
During the Obama and Biden presidencies, Democrats went so far as to call for open borders, mass amnesty for illegal aliens, the defunding of local police forces, an end to the enforcement of many property crimes, and clemency for violent offenders serving time in prison. Once again, Democrats pushed for these policies while simultaneously demanding that the Second Amendment be repealed and Americans be disarmed.
Lawmakers’ pro-crime policies and “criminal justice” reforms have occurred at exactly the same time that they sense their personal security in jeopardy. Coincidence? Of course not. When you put murderers, rapists, and thieves back on the streets, incidents of murder, rape, and theft rise. When you open up America’s borders to foreign soldiers, narco-terrorists, and America-hating zealots, you get a concomitant rise in industrial sabotage, cartel violence, and acts of terrorism. Members of Congress take one look at the chaos and general threats to their lives and demand around-the-clock personal security. Meanwhile, ordinary Americans living inside Democrat-controlled jurisdictions have to jump through administrative hoops and beg municipal authorities for permission to carry firearms.
To me, it seems only fair that those who intentionally put our country at greater risk should be the first ones to disarm. At the very least, they should not receive the benefits of extra security while dooming regular Americans to lives with less security and greater violence.
Congress’s hypocrisy when it comes to the security of lawmakers versus the security of regular Americans is part of a much broader problem: Lawmakers see themselves as separate from and superior to the rest of society. Adam Schiff and his colleagues apparently believe that they are entitled to commit mortgage fraud with impunity. Congresswoman Ilhan Omar apparently believes that she can commit immigration fraud while putting the interests of Somalia ahead of those of the United States. Nancy Pelosi and the many rags-to-riches members of Congress apparently believe that they should be able to use nonpublic information to make a fortune on the stock market. Lawmakers apparently believe that it is appropriate to flood public schools across the country with illegal aliens who struggle to speak English while sending their own children to well guarded private institutions. In other words, members of Congress insist on one set of rules for the public while exempting themselves from the consequences of the very laws they pass.
America is not a country of kings, queens, and assorted royalty. This is a place in which the people who represent Americans in Congress are meant to have no additional privileges relative to anyone else. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander, and members of Congress should endure equally the policies they force upon American society. At the very least, they shouldn’t be entitled to armed guards while working to disarm everyone else.

A Weakened United Nations Plans Medical Censorship and Surveillance
The United Nations is going into its 80th annual conference as an organization in decline. Nevertheless, this week, world leaders will meet in New York to discuss how they can exploit the world’s problems for their globalist ends.
Under the guise of reducing disease, combating mental illness, and dealing with the next pandemic, the UN plans to use its waning power to surveil and censor people.
Since its creation, the UN has sought to exploit legitimate societal threats and problems for their ultimate goal, installing a world government. They don’t hide their true intentions. UN Secretary-General António Guterres said last year during his speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos that the “only way” to address the world’s needs is through “strong multilateral institutions and frameworks and effective mechanisms of global governance.”
In 2015, just after the UN revealed its Agenda 2030 plan, UN Under-Secretary-General for Economic and Social Affairs Wu Hongbo cited a long list of problems that only “global governance” can solve. It’s quite the speech. To soothe concerns of so much power in the hands of so few, he even claimed the UN is just, fair, and transparent. “We need a global governance that encompasses a much broader range of development facets and provides long-term solutions for them,” Wu said, adding that “the United Nations can become a locus for such global governance.”
And back in 1962, Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) member, Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor, and former State Department official Lincoln P. Bloomfield wrote a report for the U.S. State Department in which he said:
A world effectively controlled by the United Nations is one in which “world government” would come about through the establishment of supranational institutions, characterized by mandatory universal membership.
Exploiting Health Concerns
A draft laying out one of the discussions happening this week indicates the globalists seek more control over how nations respond to disease, mental illness, and the next health “crisis.” In the “political declaration,” they claim they want to reduce death from noncommunicable diseases by 30 percent, make treatment for hypertension and mental illness more accessible, and reduce smoking, all supposedly part of a larger goal to reduce poverty and inequality.
The way they intend to accomplish these goals is by bringing “together governments, civil society and the private sector” — also known as public-private partnerships. That includes funding and empowering the UN’s public health arm, the World Health Organization (WHO). They also plan to “enact within national and, where relevant, regional contexts legislation and regulation.” And they want to develop and implement “multisectoral national plans and, where appropriate, subnational plans.” This is all just a fancy way of saying they want control over sovereign nations’ governments.
The declaration says that accomplishing all this will require censorship and surveillance. The censorship is euphemistically defended as necessary to “counter misinformation and disinformation around the prevention and treatment of noncommunicable diseases and mental health conditions.”
It also mentions their intent to “regulate digital environments.”
The UN wants to keep track of people’s personal data; this is explained under the heading “Strengthen governance.” One of their goals is to:
Improve infrastructure for systematic and ongoing country surveillance on noncommunicable diseases, risk factors and mental health, including death registration, population-based surveys, and facility-based information systems.
Changes to International Health Regulations
And they plan to reverse, or at least censor, the growing skepticism toward the corrupt Western Medical Establishment. The document says that it’s important to “acknowledge that there are evidence-based interventions for preventing, screening, diagnosing, treating, and caring for people with noncommunicable diseases and mental health conditions.” When they say “evidence-based,” that’s a sly way of saying they want to discredit methods and drugs out of the paradigm of the Western medical cabal.
This week’s meeting is happening just as the WHO’s changes to the International Health Regulations go into effect. These changes essentially give WHO more power over how member nations deal with pandemics and other health emergencies.
On Friday, WHO announced the changes in a press release. A central message of the release is that since borders don’t restrain diseases, globalism is the antidote. A WHO press release says:
[The amendments] recognize that infectious diseases and other public health risks do not respect borders, and that coordinated global action is critical.
Among the changes is a new “global alert” that will “trigger stronger international collaboration when a health risk escalates beyond a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC) and poses the risk of becoming, or has already become, a pandemic, with widespread impact on the health system and disruption to societies.”
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on his first day in office this year that withdraws the U.S. out of WHO. The White House said the disastrous way the organization handled the spread of Covid-19 and allowed the Chinese to influence it justified the exit. But the withdrawal comes with a one-year notice period, so, technically, the U.S. is still in the WHO.
U.S. Not Fully On Board?
A number of Council of Council (CoC) members — the CoC is subagency of the CFR — discussed what the UN looks like now that the United States has leadership that isn’t fully sold on globalism.
Ryan Neelam, the director of the Public Opinion and Foreign Policy Program at the Lowy Institute in Australia, says:
Founded to “save succeeding generations from the scourge of war,” the United Nations now finds itself sidelined as conflicts rage in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, and tensions between major powers escalate. Legal scholars warn of a “catastrophic collapse of norms against the use of force.” Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump’s erratic tariff policies have fractured decades of broad consensus on rules-based trade. Foreign aid budgets are shrinking, military spending is rising, and global momentum to act on climate change and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has slowed.
The forecast is not looking good, especially since the reduction of U.S. funding to the UN. Neelam continued:
Amid those geopolitical rifts, the United Nations is under severe financial strain. The United States, its largest donor ― contributing some 22 percent of the regular budget ― is expected to announce further funding cuts following a review of international organisations ordered by Trump.
The UN secretary-general, Neelam adds, will be reducing the UN budget and workforce by 20 percent.
Michele Valensise, president of the Institute of International Affairs in Italy, also noted the effect of American indifference to the UN:
The United Nations needs to contend with fierce competition and deep divisions between its member states at the international level, along with a decreased interest in multilateralism even as the world becomes increasingly interdependent. The latter is due, in part, to the detachment of the United States from the activities and structures of the United Nations.
Héctor Cárdenas, president of the Mexican CFR, has a similar complaint:
The United Nations is stumbling into its eighth decade with mounting dysfunction. The second Trump administration’s renewed disdain for multilateralism — evidenced by its withdrawal from integral bodies such as the World Health Organization and UN Human Rights Council, and by its steep cuts to humanitarian aid — has deepened a crisis that was already structural.
Getting US Out
If this is what the UN looks like with minimal U.S. support, imagine what Americans could accomplish with a full withdrawal.
The United States funnels a lot of money to this subversive organization — but there is no reason for it to exist. By its own admission, it hasn’t maintained peace around the world. And, again, by its own admission, its primary goal is to hijack power from nation-states. If it believes its humanitarian motivations are legitimate, then the catastrophic results alone should disqualify these people. One need look no further back than Covid. At the center of Europe’s response was the UN through the WHO.
The parent company of this magazine, The John Birch Society (JBS), has been fighting to get the U.S. out of the UN since 1962. The JBS deserves credit for the decades of work its members carried out to expose the true nature of this organization and create resistance to it. You can learn more about the UN’s disastrous impact and what you can do to help here.

The Genie of ‘Israeli First’ Dominance Is Out of the Bottle
Netanyahu will soon find that Israel has lost America – and the rest of the world, too.
‘Gaza is on fire; the Jewish state will not relent’, Israeli Defence Minister Katz excitedly proclaims: “The IDF is striking with an Iron fist at terrorist infrastructure”. In fact, over recent weeks Israel has struck at ‘infrastructure’ in West Bank, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, and Tunisia – besides Gaza.
The so-called ‘Rules-Based Order’ blueprint (if it ever truly existed beyond narrative) has been ripped up in favour of violent Zionism: Genocide, sneak attacks under the guise of on-going peace negotiations, assassinations, and the de-capitation of political leaderships. It is war without limits; without rules; without law; and in complete disdain for the UN Charter. Ethical boundaries, more particularly, are dismissed as mere ‘moral relativism’.
Something profound is re-shaping Israeli foreign policy. The transformation needs be understood as a U-turn within the very core of Zionist thinking (a journey from Ben Gurion to Kahane), as Yossi Klein has written.
Israel’s strategy from past decades continues to rest on the hope of achieving some literal Chimeric transformative ‘de-radicalisation’ of both Palestinians and of the Region, writ large – a de-radicalisation that will make ‘Israel safe’. This has been the ‘holy grail’ objective for Zionists since Israel was first founded.
Israeli Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer claims that such radical mutation in consciousness will only come from the bombing of opponents into utter submission. (The lesson which he draws from WWII). One aspect – Israel’s foreign policy – then is clear: It is the ‘War of the Jungle’.
But there is another aspect; one perhaps more troubling: These norms and ethical principles that Israel openly seeks to tear apart are, in the last resort, American proclaimed norms and values. Strikingly, the U.S. has abandoned its traditional ethos when it comes to Israel. And rather than criticise or seek to limit Israel’s use of such norm-busting military actions, the Trump Administration emulates them – sneak attacks under the guise of talking peace, de-capitation attempts, and striking with missiles at unknown vessels off Venezuela, vaporising the crew.
The U.S. is doing this openly – thumbing its nose, like Israel, at international law and conventions.
It does appear that key components of the U.S. Establishment increasingly favour the military strategies of Israel and even are shifting from the moral ethos of a ‘Just War’, shall we say, to one closer to the Hebraic ethos of ‘Amalek’. It amounts to updating western moral ‘software’ with the alternative ‘justice’ of absolute war.
Does the Israel state have a future? Israel is now carrying out a second Nakba in Gaza and the West Bank, with Jewish society remaining trapped in repression and denial – just as it was back in 1948. Israeli Historian, Ilan Pappe wrote in 2006 in his seminal work on the 1948 Nakba the fundamental importance of “retrieving [the events of 1948] from oblivion”:
Once the decision was taken [on 10 March 1948], it took six months to complete the mission. When it was over, more than half of Palestine’s native population, close to 800,000 people, had been uprooted, 531 villages … destroyed, and eleven urban neighbourhoods emptied of their inhabitants. The plan … and above all its systematic implementation in the following months, was a clear-cut case of an ethnic cleansing operation, regarded under international law today as a crime against humanity …
The story of 1948 is not complicated … It is the simple but horrific story of the ethnic cleansing of Palestine, a crime against humanity that Israel has wanted to deny and cause the world to forget. Retrieving it from oblivion is incumbent upon us, not just as a greatly overdue act of historiographical reconstruction or professional duty; it is … a moral decision, the very first step we must take if we ever want reconciliation to have a chance.
I wrote recently how Israeli film-maker Neta Shoshani’s controversial documentary about the 1948 Nakba showed Israeli ethical and legal boundaries to have been erased in a bout of bloodletting and rape. The absolute loss of ethos (there was no accounting or justice), Shoshani says, imperilled the then-legitimacy of the State founding project. Repeated a second time – the current war – she warns, “could be the one That Ends Israel”.
Shoshani’s comments hint at the trauma felt by secular liberal Jews at witnessing the norms and lifestyle of their largely secular-liberal society upended by the swivel towards the militaristic and eschatological objectives of the Israeli Right. Finance Minister Smotrich declared recently that the Jewish people are experiencing “the process of redemption and the return of the divine presence to Zion – as they engage in the ‘conquest of the land’”.
Many European Jews did arrive in the new Israeli state to find safety and protection, however, they also came to participate in the Zionist project in Palestine.
For now, Netanyahu states he has Trump’s “100%” support and “unlimited credit” for the maelstrom unleashed across the region. As Ben Caspit writes, quoting a senior Israeli diplomat:
“The fact that Rubio landed here just days after the [Doha] attack, and voiced almost no criticism — in fact, the opposite — gives a tailwind to Israel’s operation in Gaza … Israel has not received such a generous and long line of credit from any American administration”.
And Trump seems to be moving away from the ‘global peacemaker’ moniker to concentrate more narrowly on demonstrating American ‘exceptional greatness’ – through tariffs, sanctions or military operations – thus demonstrating a dominating, if not Great, America.
Yet the problems are all too apparent: In previous years, Israel had been largely relegated to the sidelines at the U.S. National Conservatism Conference. This time around, the Jewish state and its wars couldn’t be avoided. The latest Conservatism conference slid into ‘civil war’ between the neo-con ‘realists’ supporting Israel, and those asking: “Why are these our wars? Why are Israel’s endless problems America’s liabilities? Why should we accept [Israel as being part of] ‘America First’?”, as the editor of The American Conservative exploded: “We f***ing shouldn’t!”
The tension within the Republican Party is obvious: MAGA supporters wish to support Trump, but the big Jewish donors and commentators, such as pro-Israel hawk Max Abrahms, mocked Tucker Carlson-loving “MAGA isolationists” at the conference, who had gone “insane” in their push to disengage from the Middle East.
Trump warned Netanyahu that the genocide in Gaza is causing Israel to bleed support among Republicans, including especially among younger people. Nonetheless, Trump has not modified his unwavering support for Israel (for whatever reason), but he has taken notice of the ‘mood vibe’ amongst his base.
If Trump has indeed noticed the change, Netanyahu doesn’t care. As Amir Tibon in Haaretz reports:
“If Trump thinks his comments on Israel’s loss of ‘control over Congress’ will be a wake-up call for Netanyahu, he’s mistaken. Israelis didn’t need Trump to know that their country is losing the battle over global public opinion”.
“Netanyahu and Ron Dermer … are at peace with Israel’s loss of international support, heightened isolation, the threats of sanctions against it, and arrest warrants for its leaders (including Netanyahu himself). The two don’t seem to care, and the reason, ironically, is the very man sounding the alarm: Donald Trump”.
“From Netanyahu’s point of view, as long as he’s got Trump’s backing – none of it matters”.
Well, Israel’s wars have lost a generation of young American conservatives – and they’re not coming back. Whatever the circumstances to the killing of Charlie Kirk, his death has let loose the genie of ‘Israeli First’ dominance in Republican politics to escape from the bottle.
When Netanyahu does peer out, he will find that Israel has lost America (and the rest of the world, too).

Good News for Liberty
The covid lockdowns caused many Americans to stop trusting the government’s propaganda and led to a 39 percent increase in homeschooling in the 2020-21 school year. While the number of homeschoolers did decline some after this jump, homeschooling has continued growing in popularity over the last several years. Today, approximately six percent of American school children are homeschooled.
Parents choose to homeschool for a variety of reasons, including objections to certain political and social agendas promoted by some government schools. Many parents became aware of how many government schools were sacrificing education for indoctrination while observing their children’s covid-era “virtual” classrooms.
Some parents started homeschooling as a temporary measure but discovered they could teach their children as well, or better, than the so-called experts. This makes sense. No one knows a child’s skills, interests, strengths, and weaknesses better than the child’s parents.
Two recent developments are going to increase homeschooling’s popularity.
First is the troubling results of the most recent National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). NAEP is commonly referred to as “the nation’s report card.” In NAEP’s latest assessment the average eighth grade science score was significantly lower than the pre-lockdown 2019 score. Other scores including for twelfth grade mathematics and reading are lower than they were ten or more years ago. To put this in perspective, consider that in 1992 spending per pupil was an inflation-adjusted 12,000 dollars, whereas the average per pupil spending in 2021 (the most recent year for which figures are available) was 17,500 dollars — a nearly 50 percent increase. The decline in scores also follows a series of federal education “reforms” that were supposed to “fix” American education by giving more power to the federal government.
The second reason homeschooling will grow even more popular is two provisions of the “Big Beautiful Bill” (BBB). These provisions provide tax benefits for parents who choose alternatives to government schools, including homeschooling. First, the BBB expands the use of tax-free 529 Education Savings Accounts. Money in these accounts can be used for a variety of expenses such as curriculum materials, online education, and tutoring.
The BBB also provides tax-credits for donations to Scholarship-Granting Organizations (SGO) SGOs provide scholarships to families, including homeschooling families to cover a variety of educational expenses. Giving Americans more control over the education dollar will do more to improve education than any centralized “reform.”
Parents looking for a homeschooling curriculum incorporating the ideas of liberty should consider my online curriculum. My curriculum provides students with a solid education in history, literature, mathematics, and the sciences. It also gives students the opportunity to create their own websites and internet-based businesses. This provides students with “real world” entrepreneurial experience that will be useful to them no matter what career path they choose.
The curriculum is designed to be self-taught, with students helping, and learning from, each other via online forums. Starting in the fourth grade, students are required to write at least one essay a week. Students also take a course in public speaking.
The curriculum emphasizes the history, philosophy, and economics of liberty, but it never substitutes indoctrination for education. The goal is to produce students with superior critical thinking skills. If you think my curriculum may meet the needs of your child, please visit www.RonPaulCurriculum.com for more information.

‘Recognizing’ The Rubble of Palestine
UK, Canada and Australia: Never fear, Palestinians! We’re here to save the day!
Palestinians: You’re going to stop the genocide?
UK, Canada and Australia: HAHAHAHAHA! No! Oh god no. Haha! No, we are going to give a great big Thumbs Up to the idea of your eventual statehood!
Palestinians: Will you at least stop sending them weapons?
UK, Canada and Australia: LOL no.
❖
In response to the UK, Canada and Australia announcing their recognition of a Palestinian state, Benjamin Netanyahu has proclaimed that Israel will never allow such a state to exist.
“It’s not going to happen. There will be no Palestinian state to the west of the Jordan River,” Netanyahu said, adding that Israel will continue expanding settlements in the West bank.
It’s funny how Israel supporters will claim it’s a genocidal hate crime to say “from the river to the sea Palestine will be free”, but apparently it’s fine to say from the river to the sea Palestine will not be free. Even if you say it while actually committing genocide.
❖
Israeli officials coming out saying there will never be a Palestinian state are completely discrediting all the two-state solution western liberals who’ve spent two years condemning Hamas because they didn’t pursue their liberation by going through the proper channels.
Reminds me of that Jon Stone quote you see going around sometimes, “One reason people insist that you use the proper channels to change things is because they have control of the proper channels and they’re confident it won’t work.”
❖
Westerner: I support a two-state solution.
Israel: There will never be a Palestinian state.
Westerner: Okay then I support a one-state solution where everyone has equal rights.
Israel: You’re calling for an end to the Jewish state you monster.
Westerner: Alright then I support the Palestinian resistance.
Israel: That’s supporting terrorism. You are Hamas and we can legally murder you.
Westerner: Well can I at least support a permanent ceasefire to end the genocide?
Israel: [cocks pistol] What did I just tell you about supporting Hamas?
Westerner: Okay then, I support Palestinians living as a permanent underclass until they can be slowly salami sliced out of existence as a people.
Israel: Getting warmer.
Westerner: I support removing all Palestinians from their historic homeland via ethnic cleansing or extermination before the end of Donald Trump’s presidential term.
Israel: [puts away gun] That’s more like it.
❖
I saw a video where two Australian doctors described how they had to deliver a baby via emergency c-section because the baby’s mother had been decapitated by an Israeli airstrike. Information like this always reminds me of that period last year when all the western politicians and media outlets were telling us that the worst people in the entire world were the university students who were protesting against this genocide.
❖
The Global Sumud Flotilla is saying they’re seeing drones around their ships again just days out from their planned arrival to bring aid into Gaza. Earlier this month drones repeatedly dropped incendiary firebombs on the boats.
This comes as Israel’s Foreign Ministry declares that the flotilla is a Hamas ally, and as Google runs Israel-sponsored ads spinning the flotilla as a terrorist operation.
I don’t know if the Israelis are going to kill these courageous activists, but you can tell they really, really want to.
❖
Remember that time we spent two years watching a horrific live-streamed genocide and then everyone tried to tell us we’re supposed to cry and express our deepest condolences when one of the propagandists for that genocide got shot? That was weird, right?
When Biden finally fucking dies I’m going to be much more insensitive and hostile than I ever was about Charlie Kirk, because he was objectively more murderous and destructive. And when I do, right wingers won’t be shrieking at me about how evil it is to speak ill of the dead. These people have no principles; they’re just herd-minded NPCs trying to canonize a horrible man because he has the same ideology as them.
❖
You’re never going to believe this, but it turns out that news story everyone’s been yelling hysterically about is being used to advance many pre-existing agendas of the US empire.
Officials at the US War Department have announced that they’re considering using Charlie Kirk as a tool for military recruitment. You can add that to the list of all the other agendas they’re using Kirk’s death to advance like increased censorship and surveillance and attacks on leftist dissident groups.
This was predictable from the very beginning. Never play along with their games.

Putin Offers US a Temporary Nuclear Control Deal ‘To Prevent New Arms Race’
Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday has offered President Trump a temporary nuclear arms control deal that would extend the status quo by one year, at a moment the future of the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, or New START, is hanging by a thread.
During a meeting with permanent members of the Russian Security Council, Putin said he was ready to extend by one year the last arms control treaty between Washington and Moscow, Reuters reports. This would allow time to negotiate its further extension, likely by another five years. This would be “if the US reciprocates, to prevent a new arms race,” Putin stipulated.
He painted a dire picture of strategic security in the world. “Unfortunately, it continues to degrade, which is caused by the combined impact of a number of factors, including negative ones, provoking the aggravation of existing and the emergence of new strategic risks,” Putin said.
He described that central to the problem is that multiple Cold War era arms agreements had steadily eroded and then been dropped between the US and Russia, while only New START remains.
“Step by step, the system of Soviet-American and Russian-American agreements on control over nuclear missiles and strategic defensive weapons was almost completely dismantled,” the Russian leader said.
“We associate the multiple problems that have accumulated in the strategic sphere since the beginning of the twenty-first century with the destructive actions of the West.”
Putin further asserted that no one should have doubt that Russia will be ready for any threat. “Our plans to strengthen the country’s defense capability are being developed taking into account the changing global situation and are being implemented in full and in a timely manner,” he underscored, before saying:
“I emphasize, and no one should have any doubt about this, that Russia is able to respond to any existing and newly emerging threats.”
But the fact that Putin is offering a year-long extension to New START while its renewal is negotiated is a major positive sign, showing advancement in trust related to Trump’s efforts to have bilateral talks even as the Ukraine war rages.
New START will expire in February 2026 unless a half-decade extension can be reached. Both leaders have shown willingness to reach a breakthrough on this issue. Putin on Monday…
Putin says ‘Removal of such limitations would not be a reasonable step’ Adds that Russia is offering a one-year EXTENSION of limits if the US reciprocates — to prevent a new arms race.
The treaty is intended to limit and reduce nuclear arms on either side, setting a limit of no more than 1,550 deployed warheads and 700 missiles. START I began in 1991, with New START signed under the Obama and Medvedev administrations in 2010 as a successor agreement.
In August 2023 the US accused Russia of violating the treaty in disallowing US on-site inspections under its stipulations. In response, Washington halted Russian inspectors’ ability to do the same on American soil.

Mike Farris, Gary Heavin, and PCR Discuss if Charlie Kirk Might Have Been Assassinated by the American Establishment
The official narrative of Charlie Kirk’s assassination is unraveling faster than it can be put back together. The latest is that the alleged 30-06 caliber bullet that hit Charlie Kirk in the neck did not exit Kirk’s neck. This is an impossibility. A 30-06 qualifies as a large animal caliber for moose, elk, and grizzly bear. The surgeon who said the missing bullet made no exit wound said that Charlie was so healthy that he was “a man of steel” and his bone density stopped the bullet. What bone density does the neck have?
The narrative controllers must be laughing their heads off. They have Charlie Kirk’s Christian supporters off focus and enraptured with God’s miracle of Kirk’s bone density which saved the lives of those standing behind Kirk. See this and this.
How is it possible that it took so long for anyone to realize that there was no exit wound? Why were they talking about a missing bullet when there is no exit wound? Moreover, if the surgeon found a bullet in Kirk’s neck, who can we trust to ascertain that it was fired from a 30-06? That has to be the finding or the narrative again has to be revised.
The whore media has implanted the idea that Kirk was killed from a shot from the high-powered rifle found or planted in the woods. As of this time we don’t know what caliber the bullet that killed Kirk is or whether it was shot by the rifle that was found or planted. The assumption is that the bullet is a 30-06 because that is the caliber of the rifle allegedly found in the woods and alleged without any evidence to be the murder weapon. The surgeon speaks of a 30-06 bullet, but if he has removed the bullet from Kirk’s neck it most certainly is not a 30-06 bullet. The basic fact is that if Kirk was professionally assassinated by the CIA or Israel, those responsible can control the explanation. See this.
If the report is true that the bullet did not exit Charlie Kirk’s neck, the bullet was not a high powered rifle bullet. It was a bullet from a palm pistol as suggested by the video below. If it was a bullet from a palm pistol, it will be a .17 caliber, a .22 caliber, at most a .25 caliber. The recoil from the palm pistol in the shooters hand is slight, certainly not 30-06.
On Coffee and a Mike, Gary Heavin and I discuss if Israel or the American Establishment might be responsible for Kirk’s assassination. Gary Heavin pointed out that the shot to Kirk’s neck appears to be a shot from a palm pistol from a very close bystander. The video at the bottom of this page shows the shooter with the palm pistol. It is very clear as is the face of the shooter who was not the person on the roof. The shooter then jumps over the railing and rushes to Kirk’s aid–a clever way to escape. It should be easy to find, identify, and question this suspect. Will they?
Tyler Robinson has not confessed as of September 21. In place of a confession, what the whore media offers is “Kirk suspect appears to confess in online chat;” “Kirk suspect confessed in hidden note to roommate.” In other words, the whore media is planting the story that was planted on them that there is a confession when there is not. Without a bullet, without an exit wound, there is no evidence that the rifle that allegedly belongs to Tyler Robinson is the murder weapon. Indeed, what is the evidence for Tyler Robinson’s arrest? How soon before Tyler Robinson is assassinated like Oswald, and the case declared closed?
We will never get the true story. The best bet is to disbelieve any and all official narratives. Everyone of them is a lie. There is no one in the American Establishment or the Israel Lobby that Americans can trust.
Mike Farris, Gary Heavin, and PCR discuss if Charlie Kirk might have been assassinated by the American establishment because he was a rising leader not under their control or if Kirk might have been assassinated by Israel because he was rescuing the rising American generation from its pro-Israeli indoctrination.

The Outstanding Criminality of Netanyahu, Blair and Trump Must End
It is said that things come in three’s — well so do accomplices in deep crime.
These three deep state operatives have formed a coven to operate as the front line purveyors of a corporate re-branding of Palestine’s Gaza peninsular.
Tony Blair is already a recognised war criminal, having been personally responsible for the mass murder of 300,000 Iraqi citizens, on the basis that Saddam Hussein was in possession of ‘weapons of mass destruction’.
There were no such weapons, as special government weapons advisor Dr David Kelly strongly stated – and paid for his life in doing so.
But Blair’s bold faced lie set off the 2003 Iraq war, and the bombing into oblivion of the citizens and infrastructure of that tragic country. An action sanctioned by President George Bush and led by US ground forces under the brutal General ‘Rambo’ Schwarzkopf.
Well, now Blair is back, and has teamed up with that other frigidly cold, calculating killer Benjamin Netanyahu, to work out the best way to exterminate the Palestinian race and simultaneously make a profit from its blood.
Netanyahu’s overt act of genocide has earned him a United Nation’s citation as ‘perpetrator of crimes against humanity’. Aside from this, he has broken every international humanitarian treaty of the past century and is subject to arrest in any country with sufficient backbone and moral fiber to carry this through.
However, the USA is not one of those countries. President Donald Trump has vowed to keep rolling out the (blood) red carpet for his dear friend ‘Bibi’s’ Stateside visits.
Trump’s very existence appears to be controlled by Zionist Israel. His big, brash, bully authoritarian despotism has earned him friends in some quarters. Mostly those who think they see some financial advantage by sheltering under his wing.
He has a large “won’t say anything against our saviour” following amongst Republican voters who have been cheering him along his pompous MAGA bonanza.
The absurdity of all this is not seen by the masses. Few seem to realize that America was never ‘great’ in the first place. With a history that commenced with the violent oppression of indigenous Indian tribes and their ultimate incarceration is special ‘reserves’ followed by open encouragement to fall into alcohol and drug addiction.
USA was pretty much founded on the ethos ‘every man for himself’, which promoted a rush for material wealth and self-interest-driven land grabs, spurred on by an ego fueled belief that ‘big is beautiful’ and ownership is power.
A cruel civil war established the domination of big industry and the industrialisation and intense exploitation of almost everything, including vast areas of what was once the richest farmland in the world.
Or, is ‘once great America’ judged to be so honored due to its bombing and invasion of more than twenty eight countries since 1945, and the murder of countless millions of human beings via a Blitzkrieg policy designed to out-do the example set by Nazi Germany during the Second World War.
What does the bellicose real estate dealer Mr. Trump have to say about being the number one accomplice to the genocide of the Palestinians of Gaza?
About being the closest partner in Netanyahu’s ethnic cleansing regime?
About his continued role as weapons supplier for the Zionist supremacist goal of ending any possibility of Palestinians retaining their homes and regaining their rights to territories they have occupied for centuries?
What kind of degraded animal is this pompous poser who wants ‘to make America great again?’
By concentrating on this three-pointed nexus of evil, I don’t wish to obscure the fact that there are hundreds more human clones in positions of power in the world who have equally failed to lift a finger to end the Gaza carnage, or indeed any other acts of war that they themselves have knowingly provoked through a seemingly irreversible obsession with money and power.
This includes most of the planet’s religious institutions whose lofty rhetoric of “peace and love on earth” has proved entirely empty when put to the actual test of standing up against brutal villainy.
As Trump, Blair and Netanyahu pour over their blueprint for the construction of a ‘Palestine Free Riviera’ over the ashes of a razed Gaza, with its landscape of surreal Trump Towers, glistening steel high-rise apartments and multinational corporate power pyramids – the men, women and children of that territory continue to be subjected to mass starvation, murder, torture and eviction from their already gutted homes.
What more can one say about this despicably cruel carnage that reveals its perpetrators to be deeply sick, psychotic entities who take pleasure in death and operate at the lowest level of existence of the human species.
As long as such psychopathically hardened criminals continue to be allowed to roam this earth, barking out their executioner orders to a brain dead mind controlled military – there can be nothing but bloodshed in store for humanity.
This is an unconscionable prospect.
Therefore, a coalition of the brave, true and noble must be formed to devise and execute a strategy for the immediate arrest and incarceration of Netanyahu and Blair. And, if Trump refuses to use his Presidential powers to intervene in the Gaza massacre, he too must be subject to the same treatment.
These arrests are not something that will happen via the intervention of ‘the justice system’. That is an illusion. Although the case against Israel is soon to be released by the International Court of Justice and will no doubt prompt further vocal saber-rattling.
We have already seen how cowardly and inept is the United Nations in its failure to enforce international criminal court edicts, further exposing its singular lack of determination to install an expanded peace force in Gaza.
The necessary decisive actions will be taken by a new kind of ‘citizen’s law enforcement body’, comprised of those who recognise that only a coming together of individuals willing to take responsibility for decisive intervention to end the murder of their brothers and sisters, will break the otherwise interminable blood bath.
The imperative is for ‘the citizen’s arrest’ to be projected into the international arena. An action that will, in the context of the slaughter of the innocents in Gaza, receive the emotional and actual support of the majority of the people of the world.
Once on the move, nothing will be able to stop a vast groundswell of humanity from ultimately ending this nightmare.
Such decisive heroic action will light up the world – and once again raise the flag of dignity of the human race.
It will clear the way for the reestablishment of a refreshed approach to justice, peace and true respect for all forms of life..
A re-sculptured society, carved out by the hands of a citizen led movement whose unstoppable momentum will finally overpower the dark deep state cult that has the world so relentlessly crushed within its deadly embrace.
N.B. As further proof of high ranking duplicity – at the time of writing – King Charles and the British government are honoring President Trump with an exceptionally lavish state banquet in Windsor castle at the expense of the British tax payer.

An Unhailed Holy Queen
Imagine being transported to another time, in which you’re standing at a slave market. The slaves are shackled and afraid. You watch as your neighbors bid on the purchase of these people. You go home and hear from your excited uncle. He has a new worker, a slave, a child. The social norm is to congratulate him on his purchase. Would you?
It’s so easy to say no when we’re departed from it, when we’re never going to be tested, so we issue our denials thoughtlessly and yet with confidence. Slavery has appeared across civilizations—from ancient Mediterranean cities to medieval Europe where Slavs were captured and sold, and beyond. Its cruelty was never limited to any one race or culture.
Most of us jump reflexively to deny that we would be party to such an evil, and we readily paint self-portraits of our would-be heroism in the face of it. But reality can be an unforgiving mirror.
What do we do when that homosexual couple in the family texts a photo of the baby that they purchased through surrogacy? Or when a favorite online “personality” tweets out their new acquisition? It feels emotionally complicated because we recognize the buyer. We think we know them. We laugh at the jokes they tell. Our recognition of their humanity makes it easier to tell ourselves comfortable lies—that’s why it’s so much easier to condemn the slave trader of the past than of the present. We would rather not admit the truth to ourselves: we witnessed a modern slave market. It’s simply too awful to consider.
The truth would demand too much of us. We couldn’t just hit the like button and keep scrolling, or even look the other way. We would be duty bound to respond with outrage, indignation, and even grief at the magnitude of the injustice. We would want to burn down the modern-day slave market and rescue those vulnerable children from the grasp of those who would reduce them to commodities. Anything less would be unthinkable.
It’s ironic that our recognition of the humanity of the modern-day slave traders is what allows them to commodify their victims with impunity. Rebukes against those who purchase newborns through surrogacy can seem harsh and uncaring in a world numb to the personhood of the real victims.
We’ve redecorated the institution of slavery so that we don’t have to admit what we are doing. There are no shackles, merely a birth certificate bearing the names of one’s owners. The child is delivered into the arms of its owners in blankets, and one of the most respected institutions of modern society (medicine) encourages the façade with unneeded beds for men who did not give birth, along with well-orchestrated photo ops. It is as socially acceptable as buying a slave has been in different times in history. It’s as scientifically legitimized as lobotomizing your troublesome child or sterilizing the mentally handicapped.
Of course, these children are not bought to be laborers (we hope), but they are entertainers nevertheless. As items to be bought and sold, they are placed into a home because of what they can do for the purchasers. Perhaps they can provide the purchaser with a sense of fulfillment at having achieved one of life’s milestones; or they can make him feel less lonely; or they can validate his feelings that his household is in some way more like those of the families in his neighborhood. More importantly, the child is not correctly recognized as a gift, to be protected and treated as such, born out of the loving embrace of his mother and father. His inherent dignity as a human being is eviscerated in favor of his utility as the plaything of a buyer with deep pockets.
Stories of abuse in these scenarios are beginning to emerge, but let us focus instead on the abuse that is inherent to the transactional nature of these acquisitions. The child is born as the product of a science experiment that sacrificed his siblings, exploited a poor woman for her womb, and deprived him of both his mother and the woman who carried him, with whom he shares a unique bond. He is violated from the moment of his conception. And for the sake of the happiness of his purchasers, he will be deprived of a healthy family dynamic forever—not because of a tragedy but by orchestrated design.
We claim to be better than the people of pre-modernity: learned, developed, civilized. But our most vulnerable experience a different reality. These victims must live in the knowledge that they were sold and purchased—a product in a contract that demanded their execution if they had an unexpected health problem or if they were on the losing end of “selective reduction” because too many of their siblings survived implantation. This is not something that we can choose to celebrate or ignore. It is an institution that deserves our relentless opposition until the day we can sneer at it as casually as we now do the slave market.
Our commodification of the unborn perpetuates the same moral blindness that once made slave markets possible. It is a tragic but unsurprising reality that many young people today are fighting against meaninglessness. When we tolerate surrogacy, we build a society that debases who man is, reduces him to an object, and provides moral assent to all manner of evils made possible by this willfully blind and egregious concession.
