From the cities of these peoples which YHWH your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not let anything that breathes remain alive. You shall surely annihilate them ... just as YHWH your God has commanded you..”

Zionism or Judaism?

When this confessed genocidal character says: “People call us baby killers but you know what? They're not wrong and we should not be ashamed of it” he actually produces a ‘rational’;“This is what HaShem ordered.”

HaShem is obviously the Jewish God. The misanthropic IDF soldier doesn’t quote Ben Gurion, Herzl or even Netanyahu, he is inspired to kill “babies” by the Jewish God.

This is of course disturbing. Some Jewish ‘anti’ Zionists may insist that such a reference to the Jewish God is completely out of line. They are lying out of ignorance or deliberately. These disturbing verses are to be found in the Old Testament:

Deuteronomy 20:16–17 reads "From the cities of these peoples which YHWH your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not let anything that breathes remain alive. You shall surely annihilate them ... just as YHWH your God has commanded you..”

In 1 Samuel 15:3, Israelite king Saul is told by God via the prophet Samuel: "Now go, attack Amalek, and proscribe [kill and dedicate to YHWH] all that belongs to him. Spare no one, but kill alike men and women, infants and sucklings, oxen and sheep, camels and asses!".

Saul's failure to be brutal to the Amalekites is leading to his downfall, culminating in his death and the death of three of his sons.

A reasonable person would insist that these Biblical stories carry zero historical truth. I agree. Yet, one should wonder why the first Jewish sages invented such a pathological mass Kilimg deity, one may push it further and ask what kind of people may insist to adhere to such a ‘God’ figure throughout their history.
