Le terrorisme perpétré par les bandes armées sionistes telles que «Lahava», «Le prix à payer», «Les jeunes de la colline», «L’organisation juive de combat» n’est nullement coupée des racines du terrorisme observé à l’époque du mandat britannique en Palestine. Des bandes sionistes armées avaient en effet émergé dès le début des années 1920, pour être ensuite particulièrement actives dans les années trente et quarante. Ce qui distingue toutefois les gangs actuels c’est que les assassinats, incendies, expulsions, profanations de sanctuaires et arrachage d’arbres infligés aux Palestiniens en Cisjordanie comme à Jérusalem sont commis aujourd’hui avec le soutien total, voire par moments la participation directe, des forces d’occupation israéliennes.
Le terrorisme sioniste avant 1948
L’expression «terrorisme juif» ou «terrorisme sioniste» est utilisée avant 1948 pour désigner les actes terroristes commis par des bandes armées sionistes prenant pour cible la population arabe palestinienne, mais également les autorités du mandat britannique elles-mêmes. Depuis la grande révolte palestinienne des années 1936-1939, et jusqu’à la fondation de l’État d’Israël, le terrorisme sioniste a été utilisé en tant que stratégie militaire visant à accélérer la création d’un État juif indépendant, par le biais de multiples attaques contre les Palestiniens, en vue de les terroriser et obtenir leur exode. Il prenait également pour cible l’armée et la police britanniques. Il avait recours aux assassinats, attentats aux explosifs contre des marchés, des navires, des hôtels. Ces bandes armées étaient commandées par des chefs qui allaient plus tard devenir premiers ministres de gouvernements israéliens, tels que David Ben Gourion, Menahem Begin et Yitzhak Shamir.
La formation des bandes terroristes sionistes avant 1948
On désigne par terrorisme sioniste avant la création de l’État d’Israël l’activité de quatre groupes principaux : la Haganah, l’Irgoun (Etzel), Stern, et le Lehi.
1. La Haganah
En 1909 est créé le groupe Hashomer, qui signifie «la garde», par Yitzak Ben Tsevi et David Ben Gourion, en tant que première milice, avec pour devise «Par le feu et le sang la Judée est tombée, et c’est par le feu et le sang que la Judée se relèvera». Elle commence son activité par la garde des implantations de Galilée, pour se transformer par la suite en unité de combat.
En juin 1920, lors d’une conférence du parti Ahdut Ha Afuda, est annoncée la création de la Haganah (qui signifie Défense en hébreu), dans le prolongement de Hashomer. Adoptée en 1924, sa charte est celle d’une milice clandestine dont la mission est de défendre l’ensemble des colonies juives en Palestine (le Yishouv). La Haganah établit des liens avec la confédération syndicale des travailleurs juifs, la Histadrout. Ses membres reçoivent un entraînement aux armes dans les kibboutzim et les colonies juives, avant que certains d’entre eux ne rejoignent les rangs des forces de police britannique en Palestine. La milice conclut des contrats d’armements à l’étranger et en fait la contrebande en Palestine. Elle procède elle-même à la fabrication de certaines armes dans de petits ateliers abrités par les kibboutzim et les colonies. En 1939, un haut commandement de la Haganah est créé, avec à sa tête Yaakov Dori, futur chef d’état-major de l’armée israélienne, le premier à ce poste.
Au cours de la Deuxième Guerre mondiale, de nombreux membres de la Haganah rejoignent les rangs de l’armée britannique pour soutenir la Grande-Bretagne dans sa guerre contre l’Allemagne nazie et ses alliés, engagement qui leur permet d’acquérir une riche expérience militaire et de mettre la main sur quantité d’armements. Une fois la guerre terminée, et dans le but d’accélérer la création de l’État d’Israël, les membres de la milice et de ses unités d’élite créées sous le nom de Palmah – 60 000 combattants et 700 officiers- mènent des opérations terroristes contre des sites britanniques militaires et civils dans toutes les régions de Palestine. Les services de renseignement de la Haganah collectent également de nombreuses informations sur les Arabes, leurs lieux de résidence, villages et villes, dont la milice a pu tirer profit entre 1947 et 1948 dans les opérations militaires visant à les expulser. Après l’annonce de la création de l’État d’Israël, la Haganah fournit les bases de l’armée israélienne et certains de ses cadres participent à son commandement, ou bien occupent des postes politiques dans les gouvernements successifs.
2. L’Irgoun (Etzel)
En 1923, le chef du mouvement sioniste révisionniste, Vladimir Jabotinsky, fonde à Riga, capitale de la Lettonie, le mouvement des jeunes du Betar. En 1931, les principes militaires institués par Jabotinsky au sein du Betar servent de base à la création de l’Irgoun, envisagée comme la branche militaire du mouvement sioniste révisionniste, à la suite d’une scission au sein de la Haganah. Cette bande armée est alors connue sous le nom d’«Organisation juive de combat». Elle a pour chef Abraham Tehomi, qui considère «la violence politique et le terrorisme» comme «deux outils légitimes dans la lutte nationaliste juive pour la terre d’Israël». Depuis 1938 cette milice est active dans l’organisation occulte de l’immigration juive en Palestine.
Après son arrivée en Palestine en 1942, le chef de l’aile polonaise du Betar, Menahem Begin, s’attelle à la réorganisation de la milice. Il proclame la rébellion contre le mandat britannique en Palestine et mène une série d’attentats terroristes visant des cibles à la fois britanniques et arabes palestiniennes. Les autorités britanniques le déclarent alors hors la loi et promettent une récompense à ceux qui réussiraient à l’arrêter. Après la proclamation de l’État d’Israël, Begin déclare qu’il n’a «pas libéré toute la patrie», son projet étant de créer le grand Israël du Nil à l’Euphrate. Il parvient cependant à un accord avec le gouvernement provisoire de Tel-Aviv pour la transformation de la milice de l’Irgoun en mouvement politique après son désarmement. C’est la naissance du Herout (Liberté), qui devait plus tard contribuer à la formation du Likoud.
3. Le Stern
C’est d’une scission de l’Irgoun qu’est créée, en 1940, sous la conduite d’Abraham Stern, alias Yaïr, la milice qui portera le nom de son fondateur. Les dissidents ont en effet un différend avec les autres membres de l’Irgoun. Ils souhaitent poursuivre les opérations militaires contre le gouvernement britannique pendant la guerre mondiale. Ils s’opposent également à l’engagement des juifs dans l’armée britannique, et estiment pouvoir coopérer, d’un point de vue tactique, avec tout groupe qui soutiendrait la lutte contre les Britanniques en Palestine. Ils rejettent les institutions juives nées sous la houlette du mandat britannique. Stern écrit à ce propos : «Nos leaders actuels ne savent absolument pas dire non (aux Britanniques). Ce sont des juifs du ghetto et leur mentalité n’a pas changé. Il nous appartient à nous, petite minorité, de déclarer la guerre au nom du peuple, les masses nous suivront de gré ou de force». Abraham Stern appelle à la création d’un État qui s’étende du Nil à l’Euphrate. Il cherche à nouer des contacts avec les fascistes italiens dans le but d’affaiblir l’emprise britannique sur le Moyen-Orient. La milice organise sous son commandement des braquages ainsi que des tentatives d’assassinat visant des responsables britanniques et des membres juifs de la police britannique considérés comme des «collaborateurs».
4. Le Lehi
Le 12 février 1942, la police britannique abat Abraham Stern dans son repaire à Tel-Aviv. Ses disciples forment alors un nouveau mouvement clandestin sous l’appellation «Lehi» (acronyme hébreu pour «Combattants pour la liberté d’Israël»). Le Lehi s’est rendu célèbre par son recours aux assassinats comme outil de terreur. Il se prévaut de 42 attentats, c’est-à-dire plus du double des opérations menées par l’Irgoun et la Haganah réunies. Le gouvernement israélien profite de l’assassinat du comte Folke Bernadotte, médiateur des Nations unies en Palestine, en septembre 1948 pour démanteler l’organisation militaire du Lehi. Les cadres dirigeants Nathan Yalin Mor et Matithayu Shmulovitz sont condamnés par un tribunal militaire à de longues peines de prison avant de bénéficier d’une amnistie générale. C’est dans les rangs de cette milice qu’apparaît Yitzhak Shamir, futur Premier ministre d’Israël en 1983.
Quelques-uns des principaux attentats commis par les bandes armées
Ces milices ont mené de nombreux attentats terroristes contre la population arabe palestinienne, notamment pendant de la grande révolte palestinienne :
Attentat à la grenade le 17 mars 1937, le premier par un milicien de l’Irgoun, contre un café fréquenté par des Palestiniens. De nombreuses victimes sont signalées.
Attaque à l’explosif d’un marché palestinien très animé de Haifa, le 6 juillet 1938, par des membres de l’Irgoun, faisant 21 morts et 52 blessés.
Attaque par une unité de la Haganah du village de Beit Sheikh, près de Haifa, en juin 1939. Enlèvement de 5 villageois qui seront assassinés.
Une énorme explosion secoue la ville de Haïfa le matin du 25 novembre 1940. On découvre que la cible est un navire français, SS Patria, amarré dans le port, avec à son bord 1800 migrants juifs, dont des femmes, que les autorités Britanniques souhaitent faire partir pour l’île Maurice car ils n’ont pas de permis de séjour en Palestine. Opposée au projet britannique, la Haganah décide d’endommager le navire. Résultat : 252 morts parmi les passagers juifs auxquels s’ajoutent 12 victimes parmi les policiers britanniques, et 172 blessés parmi les autres passagers. Les marins palestiniens parviennent à sauver le reste des migrants du naufrage. Les rescapés sont alors autorisés par les Britanniques à demeurer en Palestine.
À la veille comme au lendemain de la Deuxième Guerre mondiale, ces bandes armées intensifient leurs attaques :
Le Lehi tente d’assassiner le haut-commissaire Britannique en Palestine Harold McMichael le 8 août 1944. Deux membres du Lehi assassinent au Caire, le 6 novembre 1944, Lord Moyne, le plus haut représentant du gouvernement britannique au Moyen-Orient, visé pour son soutien au projet d’une fédération arabe dans la région. Les deux assassins, Eliyahu Bet-Zuri et Eliyahu Hakim sont jugés par un tribunal militaire et exécutés par pendaison au Caire le 23 mars 1945.
Le 18 juin 1946, des citoyens britanniques sont enlevés, comme moyen de pression sur les autorités de leur pays. C’est le premier recours du terrorisme sioniste au procédé de la prise d’otages.
Le 29 juin 1946, à la suite d’une vague d’arrestations par la police britannique dans les bureaux de l’Agence juive, la milice de l’Irgoun, conduite par Menahem Begin, décide de cibler le quartier général de l’armée britannique, installé à l’hôtel King David à Jérusalem. Celui-ci est dynamité le 22 juillet 1946, entraînant la mort de 91 personnes dont 28 Britanniques, 17 juifs, 41 palestiniens et 5 autres victimes de diverses appartenances.
Le 31 octobre 1946, le Lehi utilise des explosifs contre l’ambassade britannique à Rome.
Le 5 décembre 1946 le Lehi recourt pour la première fois au procédé de la voiture piégée, stationnée près de bâtiments à Sarafend.
Entre le 4 et le 6 juin 1947, vingt lettres piégées sont envoyées d’Italie, à destination d’hommes politiques britanniques à Londres.
Le 29 juillet de la même année, la même milice procède à l’enlèvement de soldats britanniques et à leur liquidation dans la région de Netanya.
L’assassinat le plus important demeure cependant celui du comte suédois Folke Bernadotte (1895- 1948), numéro deux de La Croix rouge suédoise avant d’être nommé en mai 1948 par le secrétaire général de l’ONU Trygve Halvdan Lie, médiateur pour la Palestine. Il s’évertuait à amender le plan de partage de la Palestine afin de régler les différends entre Juifs et Arabes. La direction du Lehi prend alors la décision de l’assassiner. Quatre de ses membres, revêtus de l’uniforme de l’armée israélienne barrent la route de sa voiture le 17 septembre 1948 dans la partie de Jérusalem contrôlée par les Israéliens. Ils tirent sur lui ainsi que sur un autre passager, le Colonel français André Sérot, chef des observateurs militaires de l’ONU en Palestine. Les deux hommes sont tués sur le coup. Une organisation portant le nom de «Front National» revendique alors l’opération pour maquiller le crime. La tentative de diversion ne réussit cependant pas et la condamnation des vrais auteurs est unanime. Une minute de silence est observée à l’Assemblée générale en hommage au Comte Bernadotte lors de la conférence générale de l’ONU.
Le 9 avril 1948 des unités de l’Irgoun et du Lehi commettent un massacre dans le village de Deir Yassin qui compte 700 Palestiniens, dont plus d’une centaine sont assassinés.
Les chefs de la Haganah avaient adopté, lors d’une réunion tenue à Tel-Aviv en mars 1948 en présence de David Ben Gourion, un plan global de nettoyage ethnique connu sous le nom de «plan Daleth», sur la base duquel de nombreux massacres sont alors perpétrés afin de terroriser les civils Palestiniens et les pousser à quitter leur patrie. Certains de ces massacres sont commis la veille de la formation de l’armée israélienne, comme celui du village d’Al Tantoura, au sud de la ville de Haifa, les 22 et 23 mai 1948, où sont tués plus de 200 femmes et hommes palestiniens. D’autres massacres sont commis au lendemain de la formation de l’armée, comme celui d’Al-Dawayima, au sud du district d’Hébron, le 29 octobre 1948, faisant des centaines de victimes, femmes et hommes.
Des musées pour honorer la mémoire des organisations terroristes
Après 1948, des musées seront fondés en hommage aux bandes armées sionistes, intégrant ainsi leurs opérations terroristes dans la mémoire collective de la «lutte armée» pour la création de l’État juif.
• Le musée de la Haganah
Créé dans la ville de Tel-Aviv, dans le cadre de «l’union des musées» qui relève du ministère de la Défense israélienne, ce musée porte le nom du fondateur de la Haganah Eliyahou Golomb. Il est érigé près de sa maison, où se tenaient les réunions des cadres dirigeants de la milice, et où étaient planifiées les opérations terroristes contre Palestiniens et Britanniques.
• Le musée Etzel
Créé à Tel-Aviv par une initiative de l’association des anciens combattants d’Etzel pour honorer la mémoire de ses membres. Il porte le nom de Amichai Paglin, chef de l’opération militaire qui s’était achevée par l’occupation de la ville de Jaffa. Il a été inauguré en 1983 par Menahem Begin, qui en était l’un des cadres dirigeants.
• Le musée de Lehi où la maison Yaïr
Créé à Tel-Aviv dans la maison où a été tué Abraham Stern, alias Yaïr, par la police britannique, le musée présente des expositions sur la vie et l’action du fondateur, organise des événements culturels et pédagogiques pour la jeunesse, des conférences et des journées d’études.
Conclusion
Les prédécesseurs des colons juifs qui épouvantent aujourd’hui la population palestinienne dans les territoires occupés de Cisjordanie et de Jérusalem commettaient dans les années trente et quarante du siècle passé d’effroyables actes terroristes. Les membres de ces organisations terroristes sionistes, notamment l’Irgoun et le Stern, auront été les pionniers de la stratégie politique de la terreur au Moyen-Orient. Après la création de l’État d’Israël, le terrorisme a représenté, à maintes reprises, une politique d’État, concrétisée par les nombreux massacres commis par l’armée israélienne et la répression du peuple palestinien sous la supervision de partis de gouvernement tels que le Likoud. Ce parti a été lui-même fondé par des cadres éminents de l’Irgoun et du Lehi. Si le terrorisme sioniste en Palestine a pu influencer le cours des événements au temps du mandat britannique, le terrorisme de l’État israélien contribue clairement aujourd’hui à dicter le cours des événements.

Deng Xiaoping: I am convinced that more and more people will come to believe in Marxism, because it is a science. Using historical materialism, it has uncovered the laws governing the development of human society... So don't panic, don't think that Marxism has disappeared, that it's not useful and that it has been defeated. Nothing of the sort! wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Quotes
- Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
- Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
- Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
- Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
- Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
- Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
- Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
- Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
- Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
- Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
- Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
- Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
- Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
- Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
- Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
- Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
- Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
- Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
- Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
- Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
- Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
- Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
- Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
- Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
- Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
- Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
- Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
- Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
- Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
- Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
- Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
- Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.

The UK and EU have consistently expanded NATO eastward since its inception, directly contradicting promises made to Russia. This deliberate deception raises serious questions about integrity in international relations. How can such broken promises be justified, especially as this expansion continues quietly?
NATO Expansion:
Broken Promises and Consequences
1. The Broken Promise to Russia:
- Declassified documents show Western leaders assured Gorbachev in 1990-91 that NATO would not expand "one inch eastward" if a unified Germany remained in NATO (National Security Archive, George Washington University).
- Former U.S. Ambassador to USSR Jack Matlock confirmed this understanding in his 1997 memoir.
2. Relentless Eastern Expansion:
- 1999: Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary
- 2004: Baltic states (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania) - bringing NATO to Russia's border
- 2020-2023: Pushed for Ukrainian membership despite 2014 coup and ongoing civil war
3. Consequences:
- 2007: Putin warned at Munich Security Conference about destabilizing effects
- 2014: Ukraine crisis erupted after U.S.-backed overthrow of elected government
- 2022: Russian invasion of Ukraine - direct result of security concerns
4. Who Benefits?
- Military-industrial complex: U.S. defense contractors saw stock prices surge after Ukraine war
- Political elites: NATO expansion created new markets for Western arms (Poland now spends 4% GDP on defense)
- Energy sector: U.S. LNG exports to Europe doubled after Nord Stream sabotage
5. Human Cost:
- Over 500,000 estimated casualties in Ukraine war (NYT)
- 8 million Ukrainian refugees (UNHCR)
- $150 billion in infrastructure damage (World Bank)

@KurtSchlichter: "This revelation from Joe Biden’s family – obviously Joe Biden has no part in it – is either a grimly remarkable coincidence or the most cynical flex ever by the undisputed masters of cynicism.
What do I think? I think it’s a cynical flex and they’ve known about this for a long time. I know my PSA score and I have zero doubt they knew his. [...]

Justin Raimondo: Today's Conservatives Are Fascists: Torture, dictatorship, phony elections and endless war. It's fascism with a 'democratic face'. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Quotes
- Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
- Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
- Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
- Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
- Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
- Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
- Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
- Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
- Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
- Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
- Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
- Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
- Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
- Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
- Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
- Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
- Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
- Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
- Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
- Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
- Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
- Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
- Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
- Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
- Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
- Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
- Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
- Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
- Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
- Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
- Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
- Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.
One gets the feeling that because Baerbock talked more than she did, she did less harm to the country than the future foreign minister.Olivia RUM (Oriental Review)

Only $40 in total donations so far today. I guess people want less RAGE? Any and all donations help the show. Consider a recurring donation to keep the craic alive. @ThatLARRYSHOW & I thank you!
@cbrooklyn112 @NoBeretI believe that if the goal is to make the amount of money that Larry and I could easily make working outside of the show for the amount of hours put in, it would be $1200 or so per show.
It's a full 8-hour day for each show on my schedule. That is the time needed to research and gather clips, edit the clips, and do the accounting for the show.

@NoBeret @cbrooklyn112There are different levels to the goal. I can't speak for Larry, but for me, that first real rung is making what I bring in doing other things.
