Recent events have shown us beyond any doubt the rotten heart that beats inside the chest of the Zionist movement. Far right Zionists are now besieging their own military bases, the infamous Sde Teiman prison, in defense of 9 convicted rapists. As much as that sounds like hyperbole designed to discredit the Zionist regime, it is not. As is usual, the Zionists are going out of their way to discredit themselves.
Sde Teiman is one of the most notorious torture dungeons operated by the Zionist entity. It is often compared to the diabolical black sites operated by the Obama-Biden regime around the world, where dissidents are kidnapped, held indefinitely without charge or trial and tortured, however in reality it may be even worse.
The New York Times, CNN and the Washington Post investigated the prison months earlier and found indisputable evidence of widespread torture, including mauling prisoners with dogs, widespread and weaponized rape, routine electrocution and keeping prisoners in extreme temperatures. Testimony revealed that prisoners were even raped to death, sodomized with hot irons until they bled out.
Even the propagandists who spent decades defending the CIA’s program of “extraordinary rendition” were appalled by what the Zionists had done. Despite this and other investigations showing that torture, murder and rape were widespread and accepted in Zionist prisons, the Zionist entity did not act until the 29th of July. After a Palestinian prisoner was found with such severe rectal damage that he could no longer walk, military police moved to investigate Sde Teiman.
What they found was shocking, even for them. At least 9 of the guards were torturing prisoners not for intel, or for because they were ordered to, but simply for fun. The pictures and videos were posted on social media, giving so much evidence that not even the Zionist regime could ignore it.
Military police raided the prison and arrested the 9 reservists who they blamed for the abuses. While they are certainly torturers, these men are only scapegoats who were following the orders of their superiors. In keeping with the model of their NATO allies, the Zionists will pin the schemes of their general staff on a handful of conscripts then wash their hands of the matter, pretending justice has been done after they sweep the crimes under the rug.
As they were being arrested, the soldiers called for the people to come out and support them, saying “To everyone, the nation of Israel, go out into the streets for us. I am not ready for this shame that they are arresting me – I gave my life for you, for my country!”
The Zionists answered the call. After the investigation was announced, genocidal National Security Minister of the Zionist entity, Itmar Ben-Givr, called the torturers “the best heroes” and said he was ashamed of their arrest. Likud MK Hanoch Milwidsky announced a voting strike against the ruling party and called the torture legitimate.
After these statements, thousands of settlers mobilized and laid siege to the prison, beating down the doors and physically forcing their way inside. The mob was joined by several MKs, including Likud members Tali Gottlieb1 and deputy Knesset speaker Nissim Vaturi, along with Religious Zionist extremist Zvi Sukkot, who had previously been banned from entering the base. Sukkot entered the base through a small crack in the front gate right in front of a crowd of guards who watched and did nothing, raising the question of how these guards would react to Palestinians storming a prison.
Vaturi is infamous for openly calling for genocide of Gaza in November, statements which were used as evidence in the IOC’s genocide trial against the Zionist entity.
"Don't allow fuel in, don't allow water in until the hostages are returned back! All of this preoccupation with whether or not there is internet in Gaza shows that we have learned nothing! We are too humane. Burn Gaza now, no less!"-Nissim Vaturi
Of course, these sorts of statements are common in the Zionist entity. It would be more difficult to find a politician who hasn’t called for genocide than one who has. Sde Teiman is not an isolated affair, it is a systematic crime. It represents only a fraction of the genocidal ideology that forms the bedrock of Zionism. The fact is, there are hundreds more Sde Teimans all across occupied Palestine and the world.
All in all, over 1200 Zionists rallied in support of rapists. Settlers surrounded the prison where the 9 accused rapists were being held and started attacking guards with rocks, sticks and trash. It didn’t take long until they were able to get inside, all as guards watched and did nothing. The situation became so bad that the IOF was forced to redeploy 3 regiments of troops from Gaza to quell the riots. In the end, it was all for nothing, the rioters won the release of the soldiers. If the Zionist entity ever truly intended to try them, their will has evaporated in the face of this attempted mutiny and coup.
The Zionists learned from the best, at America’s covert black sites all around the world, where dissidents are kidnapped, held without charge, and routinely tortured, rape is a common punishment. Prisoners who have been charged with no crimes have been raped so badly they required reconstructive surgery. Prisoners have been sodomized with broomsticks, light bulbs, wire wrapped truncheons, chemical lights and more.
Both male and female prisoners are routinely stripped, molested and raped by guards, often as other prisoners are forced to watch. Even children have been raped by interrogators who filmed it to use as blackmail against their families. The Obama regime refused to release the evidence of these crimes or prosecute any of those responsible to avoid “inflaming anti-American sentiment.” Despite promises from the same Obama-Biden regime, these camps have only expanded in the years since the start of the Global War of Terror.
The Zionists have closely collaborated with this entire scheme. Not only have they been a key hub in the CIA’s extraordinary rendition and torture programs, but they have been some of it’s best trainers. Torture techniques created and refined by the Zionists are now taught to security forces all around NATO. The training is not limited to military and spies, police in the US and Europe routinely train with the Zionist murderers. The NYPD, who maintains an office inside Occupied Palestine, even calls one of it’s torture devices the “Palestinian chair” in reference to this collaboration. Their infamous and wildly illegal Muslim surveillance program was even designed by Zionists.
The Chickens Come Home To Roost
In general, fascism can best be understood as bringing the methods of imperial rule in the colonies into the metropole. In the colonies, genocide has been the rule, not the exception, of imperial rule. Democracy is only for a select few of settlers; dictatorship and slave labor applies to the indigenous and other colonized people. The corporate model developed in colonial enterprise. The first corporations were the colonizing corporations—British East India Company, Hudson's Bay Company, etc.— who could bear the costs and risks of colonization because of shared and limited liability, and exercised state power directly over the colonized territories and populations. The mass base of participation in colonial rule came via the settler population, who participated actively and often independently in land grabs and extermination without waiting for bourgeois legitimacy.
All this was translated to the metropole by Hitler, however he may have defined or proclaimed his system. Except that the mechanisms— dictatorship, slave labor, corporatization of the state and society, mass participation in militarism, looting and oppression independently of the bourgeoisie—were seen operating directly within the German population at large, including against its racially and ethnically defined minorities, and its European neighbors.
This is the true terror of Sde Teiman. It is nothing new nor unique. In the years since America’s illegal, unilateral “Global War on Terror”, there has been an explosion in blacksites and torture dungeons like this all around the world. While many believe that the GWOT was the beginning of this strategy, it is much older.
The CIA has operated covert torture and execution centers for dissidents for decades, previously using them in their undeclared dirty war against communism. As an example, millions were killed during the Vietnam war during what the CIA called “Operation Phoenix”, a covert program of detention, torture and execution of political dissidents and pro-independence figures by the CIA and their South Vietnamese puppets. Hundreds of thousands died and many more were tortured, arrested and brutalized over the course of America’s first illegal war.
The counter insurgency tactics that are being used to terrorize people in Palestine and the rest of the world are starting to come home. Already, we can see an increasingly militant police reaction against anti-Zionist protesters. Germany, an alleged oasis of freedom in the world, has seriously restricted free speech and dissidents are beaten and attacked with chemical weapons by the police. Journalists are being arrested for daring to attend talks and seminars about Zionist apartheid.
Germany is no abberation, this authoritarianism is spreading through NATO like a rash. The same strategies that have been long employed against minorities in America are now being used against pro-Palestinian demonstrators. In response to non-violent student demonstrations, police mobilized with clubs and chemical weapons to enforce the silence demanded by the Zionist regime. Beyond just the police, fascist jackals eagerly joined in the attacks on solidarity encampments as police stood by and watched, just like they do in the Zionist entity.
As the rate of profit continues to decline and the ruling class becomes increasingly desperate to hold on to their crumbling power, we will only see these strategies intensify.
As Neoliberal capitalism increasingly immiserates it’s own people in the quest for ever-increasing profits, the restive population is becoming more difficult to control. The people are watching as their prosperity is stolen out from under them and handed to the Zionist entity. One by one, they are starting to rise up and say enough is enough. Rather than fix their problems by redirecting the aid given to criminal a regime to spend at home, the solutions proposed by their governments are always the same.
More cops, more guns, more Sde Teimans.
Unfortunately for the Zionists, the people are fed up. Not just in Palestine, but all around the world, increasingly determined resistance is mobilizing against Zionist apartheid and it’s fascist cousins. As the Zionist regime slumps under the determined blows of the resistance, it’s backers are growing increasingly desperate. Their brutality is the clearest sign yet that their defeat is near. Goliath, now beaten bloody by the Davids of the world, can only lash out in pain at anything nearby. We must prepare to meet their brutality with an ironclad determination.
To quote from the PFLP’s statement from July 24th:
“The established reality on the ground, the legendary steadfastness of our Palestinian people, the painful and qualitative strikes by the resistance, and the global rallying around the Palestinian cause confirm beyond any doubt that the inevitable and decisive victory for our people and the imminent defeat of the zionists is near.”
