Tribal Greater Israel

Russia Destroys The Greater Israel Dream

The grand plan was going swimmingly.  The concept of endless wars for Greater Israel was working and producing impressive results.  Opportunistically, through aggravation of war after war, chunk by chunk of Arab land was usurped and the map of Greater Israel was slowly materializing.  No matter the unstable chaos surrounding the State of Israel for the past seven decades, and no matter the undying Palestinian resistance and the violent Intifadas that erupted internally, the Zionist dream of Greater Israel remained consistently intact and was progressing unabated and unchallenged by anyone.
But dreams, by their diaphanous nature are easily interruptible – can easily turn into sudden nightmares.  Indeed, dreams do, in the blink of an eye, simply end.
Nobody expected the Zionist dream to come to a sudden halt like this.  Nobody.  Nobody expected Russia, literally in the blink of an eye, to suddenly assert itself militarily in the Levant and in the process turn the Zionist dream into a geopolitical and existential nightmare.  No further territorial expansions are even remotely possible now with Russia’s military presence in the Levant.  The Russian army is in the Levant to stay and the Israelis know it.  In the Zionist universe, it’s as if a mighty big-footed contender had suddenly appeared in the dream and instantly stepped on the Greater Israel map like it was a castle made of sand.
Russia is not a declared enemy of Israel.  Russia did not squelch The Greater Israel dream on purpose.  The destruction of the Zionist dream is the result of an unintended consequence that purely serves the regional and global interests of Russia.  Happenstance that the Zionist dream was in the way of Russian ambitions, that’s all.  Dog eat dog world.
But what are Russia’s interests in lassoing  the Levant?
Well, first, Putin intends to re-fulfill the old Russian dream of establishing sizable military foundations and bases in the ‘warm waters’ of the world, in the Mediterranean, to be more precise, in order to pivot and project power westwards with practical ease.  And also, to use Mediterranean naval bases as a first line of defense against a Western creep towards its own territory.  Russia’s growing military presence in Syria is a matter of  “national security”, Putin has declared several times over.  Establishing multiple bases in the Mediterranean has not been possible for Russia to do since the 1967 Arab-Israeli war when it lost the Middle East chess game to America, symbolized by Egypt, a major Soviet client at the time having its Soviet military hardware devastated by Israeli-operated, made-in-USA weaponry.  Russia today considers its growing presence in Syria to be a most vital geopolitical maneuver for re-establishing a seat of power again in the Middle East, in tandem with its progress into future Superpowerdom.  In the current uncontrollable chaos of the Levant, this is an ambition that Russia must begin implementing immediately, lest the region falls dangerously under ISIS and Zioconism, making it thus harder for Russia’s old dream to be realized.
Secondly, Putin sees the cloth of American Empire as fast fading, especially in the Middle East, and he’s taking advantage of this: putting forth a challenging proposition to the American Emperor.  Yes, Vladimir Putin, president of Russia, a man considered to be a cold-blooded realist, is aware of America’s weaknesses, but he’s also aware of its current strengths and he is in Syria as a power salesman – he’s in Syria to make a deal with Empire Americana.  Respectfully, but firmly, he is pitching to Empire: ‘Look, you remain supremely powerful,  but you are hemorrhaging in the Middle East and the situation is now critical.  You cannot afford a new large-scale war in the Middle East that may or may not reassert your hold on the region;  and you have lost all your proxy wars there as well – there are no more black-clad joker cards in your deck.    You cannot continue on this disadvantageous path, you cannot stand still either and you also cannot withdraw from the region.  All these are strategically inferior options and will not stop the bleeding of your powers.  The only way out is through pragmatism.  The only remedy is to share control of the Middle East with us, Russians.  We have together shared power in the Middle East under the shadow of the Cold War and yes it created dangers and complexities for both our countries in the past.  But today is different: there is no official Cold War between us and so our new partnership can only serve to strengthen us both’.  This, dear reader is Russia’s diplomatic speak, received with quiet relief by the White House and cussed and scorned by the Ziocons in DC.  Simplified, Putin is in Syria and his realist message to America is:  ‘Share the Middle East with us now or we both fall in the future’.   And it looks like Obama has quietly taken heed, in the interest of Empire and realism and not out of cowardice or submission to Putin.  Obama’s problem is that although he begrudgingly agrees with Putin’s analysis and remedy, he cannot be seen to be supporting it in public because the Neocons would immediately set the dogs of treason on him, bogging him down with political obtrusion and smear campaigns in his last 15 months of power – possibly damaging his party’s winning chances at the next elections.
Thirdly, in my opinion, Russia is in Syria also for the purpose of redressing Russian military image and history.  After the devastating defeat of the Soviet Union at the hands of the American-backed Afghani Mujahedeen, and considering the profound nationalism that Russian society feels especially towards its military institutions,  it behooves any modern Russian leader thus to conceive and create a military victory against a modern version of the same old enemy who had previously defeated them – a military morale-booster both for the Russian populations and for the history books.  A utilization of the sentiments of the ‘comeback kid’ for mass consumption so as to boost levels of nation devotion.  Russia, being the largest nation in the world, landmass-wise, it has to regularly make grand spectacles and gestures in the name of national unity enhancement.  Killing Takfiri terrorists in Syria, nay smashing them to smithereens with Russian Air Power is an opportune event to balance out and positively update Russian history books.
Yes, the Russian military buildup in Syria, especially in marine and air power, now looks to be, relatively speaking, permanent.  And this is what is causing Israel and its Ziocon friends in Washington sleepless nights and hectic, nefarious group-brainstorming sessions.  They know that the dream of a Greater Israel cannot be realized with Russia dominating the skies and waters of the Levant.  This is the current and silent inescapable reality.  This is the wall that suddenly sprung up and instantly separated Zionists from their beloved Greater Israel dream.  Because of a ‘wall’, the dream is now impossible.
Some would call this, poetic justice.
The ‘dream destroyed’ being the current unspoken reality, Israel is left with no expedient and transforming choices.  It cannot go to direct war with a more powerful Russia and win back domination over Levant skies and waters.  It couldn’t even defeat Hezbollah who lack any form of Air Power back in 2006.   And more frustratingly for Israel, it cannot blackmail, coerce or buy President Putin either.  Moreover, presently under the leadership of Obama, it is clear that America is not prepared to go to direct war with any nation, let alone Russia, on behalf of Israel.  The current architects of  expansionist Zionism are at a complete and utter loss to recognize all these chokehold factors – blood is draining from their faces.  No more meetings over what Arab country to genocide next so as to steal more land and resources, the issue now is not when and how the Zionist dream can be finally fulfilled, but how to safely bring the corpse-dream back from the dead without anyone noticing.
Alas, there are no clever Zionist ideas on the architects’ table.  They are truly and absolutely in utter speechless shock.
And what compounds this hectic catatonia that the Zionist Sensei are currently experiencing is the fact that they know that Israel’s global credibility is at its lowest ever, and that sooner or later, the international community – seeing Israel’s geopolitical weakness – will start pressing hard, even imposing the 2-State solution on Israel, based on the 1967 borders.  This is the double nail in the Greater Israel dream coffin.  Not only will Israel be unable to expand territory, but it will also be forced into giving up territory currently under its (illegal) control.  Something that the Israeli public are psychologically not prepared for, nor is there any political will in the Israeli halls of power to do so either.
Observations of the behaviorism of Zionists tell us that what they cannot change, they usually endeavor to spoil.  And the only thing they are still capable of doing is spoiling it for Arabs.  They will undoubtedly attempt to expand the current regional conflicts into another one hundred years of Arab on Arab wars.  This is a given – they breathe to spoil life for their Arab neighbors.  And we also observe that when Zionists are not willing or able to go to war, they usually endeavor to send other capable and willing nations to war on their behalf.  But as noted a few passages above, this is currently impossible under the Obama administration.  The dream of Greater Israel remains smashed.
What to do then?  What is the ultimate solution?  Would Israel prefer that America directly and militarily confront Russia in the Levant?  I call it a yes.  Even at the cost of causing World War Three?  Yes.  Even at the risk of igniting a nuclear war?  Yes.
Yes, yes, and a triple yes.  The global Zionist congress pathology shows every indication of this.  ‘The tribe above all’ is their core belief.  They are Masadian-ISISians in suits with basements full of nukes.  Their narcissistic intentions are always clear – their motives and maneuvers are never to be trusted.
We are currently at a very serious and sobering point in the fast-evolving dramas taking place in the Levant and the Middle East at large.  Everyone concerned is standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the unknown.  This alignment of overwhelming unknowns is rare in history.  The geopolitical stress and distress levels – despite the equalizing Russian presence in the Levant – remain excruciatingly high for all parties concerned.  All actors have so much to lose with a single wrong move.  A cluster of unknowns is forcing everyone into extreme caution.  Hesitant steps are made then quickly unmade.  If you were to privately ask Obama or Putin what would happen to the world the day after a war between their two nations ignites, they would both be likely to look you somberly in the eye and say, ‘I don’t know’.
The unknown is upon us and we are upon the unknown.
For now, Zionist masterminds plan on keeping the death of the dream of Greater Israel a secret, in the hope that the next American president would be more malleable and more reactionary than Obama.  They will be quietly biding their time and hoping that the next President of America would be more Zionist that Theodore Herzl.  More ideologically violent than ISIS and Tarantino.  Hoping against all hope that the tiny state of Israel would survive a Word War Three catastrophe with little damage inside its boundaries.  Hoping against all hope that the Arab world surrounding Israel, all of it would literally be bombed back into the stone ages, while Israel continues to be the hi-tech bride of the Middle East.  Hoping against all hope that Russia would again be defeated by America in the Middle East – just so that Israel can again dominate the skies and waters of the Levant, allowing it thus to revive the corpse of the Greater Israel project.  Hoping against all hope that igniting World War Three would actually solve all of Israel’s problems.
A touch fantastical?  Maybe not.
This is what happens when tribal madmen dream.
