Antisemitism—but not criticism of Israel—associated with support for political violence (www.psypost.org)

A new study published in Studies in Conflict & Terrorism provides evidence that antisemitic attitudes, rather than anti-Israel sentiment alone, are linked to support for political violence in the United States. The findings suggest that while criticism of Israel can motivate legal activism, it is antisemitic prejudice that tends to predict a willingness to support illegal or violent political actions and general aggression.

The research was led by Sophia Moskalenko of Georgia State University, along with co-authors Tomislav Pavlović and Mia Bloom. The team aimed to address a gap in the literature by empirically distinguishing between attitudes toward Jews and attitudes toward Israel, especially in how they relate to political radicalization and violence.

Fuck Israel, genocidal scum!

Too bad they didn’t have the scientific-integrity to test whether anti-Palestinian-prejudice ALSO predicted support for political-violence.

Perhaps a month ago, I saw in a single week, 2 articles:

1 was by an Israeli Jew, who surveyed Palestinians, & discovered that 45% ( -/+ 2 or 3 %, it was the similarity that struck me, not the individual-numbers ) of them wanted the extermination of Israeli Jews…

But, of course, he wouldn’t dare to question what percentage of Israeli Jews wanted the extermination of Palestinians, would he?

The other was by a Palestinian, who surveyed Israeli Jews, & discovered that 45% ( -/+ 2 or 3 %, as mentioned above ) of them wanted the extermination of Palestinians…

But, of course, he wouldn’t dare to question what percentage of Palestinians wanted the extermination of Israeli Jews, would he?


Pretending that prejudice is “only 1 way” is a gaslighting common to prejudice-pushers/ideologues.

Scientific integrity breaks that, but political-motivation hasn’t got the spine to.


No matter: the unconscious strategy of Hamas was to use the Palestinians as bait, to get Israel to display such sadism/psychopathy that Israel’s “deterrent” of its region from annihilating it … would cease.

Once enough population is committed to annihilating one AT ANY COST, including “martyrdom”, THEN one has no “deterrent” left, obviously.

Israel, incompetent at understanding anything outside its belief, … took the bait.

Now it’s only a matter of time, before that annihilation ( predicted in the Christian bible’s Matt 24, btw, total-annihilation, in a single day, which wasn’t possible until nowadays ) happens, due to Netanyahu’s shamelessness & arrogance…

Before his striking within Qatar, I’d thought it would be 3-4y before that annihilation would happen, given how mind-warpingly-slow the unfolding of this setting-up-WW3 has been going…

But now that he’s crossed that line, that shortens the timescale, perhaps considerably…


Beware unconscious-mind’s strategy: it’s goal is to MAKE its myth-fantasies actualize ( which is where all the apoctalypticism comes from, & also where all the “zombies” movies & games are coming from, too )!

Every addict whose life was gradually & systematically destroyed by their unconscious-mind’s addiction “proving who’s boss” by breaking the life it inhabited, rather than tolerating the person living in that life to live, has proven just what unconscious-mind is capable of.

( I’m saying that as a guy who’s racked-up 7+ years as a homeless person, who’s seen what drugs do to lives, & who’s dug into unconscious-mind’s malevolence in a war to break my entire Eternity from its control/dominion: war’s war, & it’ll murder me, & anyone whose life it rules, rather than tolerate us removing our lives from unconsciousness’s rule )


See the difference between Trump’s unconscious-mind, which HAS strategy, you can see the progression from when he was young to now, & it’s consistently in the same direction, always-escalating, vs his SurfaceMind, which is chaotic, unmanaged, uncontrolled, & too random to reliably-predict.

See it with Putin, too…

& also understand that as they get older, they have less to lose, so therefore competitive-nihilism becomes more-valid, more “victory” to them…

Same as competitive-nihilism is “victory” who have been pushed far enough ( I’m including both kami-kaze pilots & submarine-torpedo pilots, some Islamist murdercide-bombers, mass-shooters, etc, in competitive-nihilism, aka Negative-Sum game )


Have the integrity to do TRUE science, & don’t let ANY ideology hold the position that it is “the ONLY valid victim”, especially when it is genociding people wholesale, as we speak.

Until the study is done to discover what the predictor of motivation for genociding Palestinians is, it’s propaganda, not true-Science.
