Fear and Loathing in Israel by Shir Hever, Israeli Economist, on The Real News Network – Reality Asserts Itself
Colonial conditioning = Masters fears and hates that the servants might rise up and demand their rights. – July 10, 2014
PAUL JAY, SENIOR EDITOR at TRNN:
HEVER = Studies the political economy of the Israeli security state = First book = “The Political Economy of Israel’s Occupation: Repression beyond Exploitation (2010)
QUESTION: Progressive secular Jews in USA ask “how does a population that begins suffered from fascism, that normally inspires a Democratic response of antifascism, wind up with a society that is as racist as any place on earth. How did Israelis get from there to here?
HEVER: A stereotype about Jews was they were perceived as very weak and frail supporting human rights because they cannot defend themselves. Another stereotype says Jews are violent brutes that just want to kill Palestinians. We all grew up learning the story of the Holocaust and repeated often. This kind of dark side exists in all human beings.
HEVER: The Zionist movement has attracted some of the worst Jews around the world = Who want to use force to get more property and more land. + It also attracted very progressive people that were, unfortunately, sidelined by a very authoritative FEW who say Palestinians deserve NO rights. The Colonial Situation is dominated by fear that your servants around you might rise up against you at any moment. = Makes the left movement appear very weak – Wanting to help the natives be equal when the Jews are in constant fear if the servants rebelling and taking your property. The right-wing says we have to keep repressing those natives so they don’t rise up, in every way possible. In Colonial Israel that FEARFUL voice tends to win like it did in all Colonization.
FACT = The Left and Right in Israel both believed in a Jewish state. The Left wanted a Democratic Jewish state with better relations with the Palestinians having more rights = But the Natural outcome of a colonial, repressive state is Domination and Repression.
HEVER: The Holocaust made the Zionist movement very diverse = Jews went to Palestine because there was nowhere else to go = Many were Anti-colonial and less racist wanting a Democratic state VERSUS PRO-Colonial and PRO-RACIST who want FULL REPRESSION of the Palestinians.
HEVER: Models of how to decolonize = Algerian model + South African model. =
Algerian model terrorism was used on a very large scale against the Extremely Repressive French colonial regime. The French killed 100 Algerians for every French that was killed = A massive massacre – BUT in the end Algerians won — not a democracy or a very stable society as the leaders of the terrorist groups became the leaders of state. = LIKE ISRAEL but in Israel the level of violence was less versus 10% of Algerians were killed. The French colonial groups became even more racist and more violent in response to Algerian resistance and eventual win. In Israel attacks by Palestinians had no military chance of defeating the Israeli army – No ability to make a dent in the Israeli military might. They did make the Israeli government invest a lot of money in putting security guards everywhere, increasing the cost of living in Israel.
If Palestinians win and end a Jewish state as in Algeria, then will their leaders of the Resistance military groups become failed leaders of the new state – a very dark kind of future perhaps worse than the Racist Israeli Government.
South Africa had a lot of violence with terrorism, but they decided terrorism was secondary and put their efforts on the political struggle more.
Fortunately, the vast majority of Palestinians, including much of Hamas, decided that violence is not leading them where they want to go and Hamas announced a unilateral ceasefire 2004, but still believe that the military struggle is the way to go. The Fatah Party says they must abandon the military struggle and go through a diplomatic struggle. Together Hamas and Fatah have 50% support among the Palestinian public. The other 50% believe in a civil struggle.
FACT: In 2011-2012 hundreds of thousands of people were in the streets of Israeli cities protesting economic inequality in a Class Struggle — A Very Exciting Moment — against GOV economic policies after Dictator Mubarak fell and Dictator Assad and Dictator Bibi were NEXT to fall – a kind of breakthrough (Not about Palestinians). Then it just dissipated.
Organizers of these demonstrations are anti-occupation first and class struggle second = A very strong sense of disillusionment in Israel about the economy that the GOV and Media always say the economic situation is wonderful. But the international removal of Dictators did not affect Israel. People know their personal lives are awful expressed through the social media = Poor Wages + MASSIVE WEALTH AND INCOMES OF BILLIONAIRES AND MILLIONAIRES. And People started to wake up. But repressive political pressure (occupation of Palestinians) for security put aside the Removal of Bibi and dividing the movement and the demonstrations dissipated = GOAL OF RIGHT WING Divide and Conquer = Argued the demonstrators wanted to END the Occupation giving rights to Palestinians and only pretend to care about INEQUALITY AND COST OF LIVING. = KILLED the question: Why is the cost of living in Israel so much higher than in any country in Europe? = ISRAEL SPENDS PROPORTIONATELY MORE ON SECURITY (% of GDP) than any NATION in developed World – Near DOUBLE THE USA and MOST ISRAELIS do NOT know this as GOV + MEDIA covers it up. = But when Israel joined the OECD (organization of developed economies) the TRUTH was UNCOVERED in a Graph that anyone can see clearly that Israel has the lowest proportion of its GDP spent on civilian expenditure + BUT expenditure on MILITARY & SECURITY is EXTRAORDINARILY HIGH = GOV argues it is ’cause look who’s surrounding us.’ = Netanyahu used that to try to disperse the demonstrations +used an attack in the south of Israel to declare Gaza did it and he bombed Gaza and killed four people but the attack had nothing to do with Gaza and Hamas decided not to retaliate with rockets LIKE Bibi wanted = Hamas wanted to keep the focus on the INEQUALITY SOCIAL PROTESTS and NOT fall into Bibi’s TRAP. Shows a very deep level of Hamas understanding as protesters held signs: “we will not be sidetracked by the security argument.” Hamas refused to play Bibi’s GAME. But nevertheless the demonstrations faded as THEIR MESSAGE WAS TOO VAGUE = “People Demand social justice” without defining who the people are = “Palestinian citizens of Israel” + “Palestinians were never mind the occupied territories. Palestinian citizens of Israel internally displaced wanted their right of return to “our lands” confiscated illegally = Israeli GOV immediately rejected.
FACT: RACISM is EXTREME among the majority of Israeli citizens and they support the onslaught on Gaza, repression, and the killing of women and children by targeting civilian areas. = Opinion polls show a majority of Israelis were for it.
A Palestinian “happy-go-lucky very young woman in a refugee camp in Beirut when asked “What would you say to young Israeli Jews?” = Suddenly her face got very stern and she said, “Tell them I want to strangle them with my bare hands…Cause I saw pictures that when they were bombing Gaza, kids were going up and signing their names on the bombs so that they could have their name on a bomb that fell on…Palestinian children in Gaza.” = We saw them do it on television. But many Palestinians never say that sort of thing even though there is a lot of anger, especially in Gaza a prison situation and they never have a chance to see Israelis anymore except TROOPS. Many Palestinian children grow up not knowing what a NON-MILITARY Jewish person looks like, but most Palestinians are very politically sophisticated and are a lot more aware generalizations don’t always work.
HEVER: Some Israelis were sickening with the 2008 attack on Gaza but 90% of Jewish Israelis supported the attack on Gaza, but OVER 50% REFUSE to join the INVASION ARMY + REFUSE to shouldering the costs of these CRIMES = The Goldstone Report + the BDS movement caused a lot of Israelis to say we have to be careful to not kill so many innocent people. Yet in elections Israelis vote for the most right-wing, crazy party and Bibi, but REFUSE to PARTICIPATE IN THE ACTUAL MUDERS OF PALESTINIANS. Most young Israelis say they’d rather live somewhere besides Israel but while stuck there they support nationalism and root for the HOME team as if it is a sporting game where people lose their lives.
HEVER will next discuss the political economy of the Israeli national security state.
FACT: Israel = World Capital of Homeland Security Industries = Sells weapons and equipment of repression to countries with extreme inequality
HEVER = Researches the economic aspect of the Israeli Occupation and TOTAL REPRESSION (BOYCOTT + DIVESTMENT + SANCTIONS) of the Palestinian territory + Its integrated effects on the Israeli economy and MARKETING OF MILITARY AND SECURITY for REPRESSION OF OTHER LARGE POPULATIONS. = Book Title: “Political Economy of Israel’s Occupation: Repression Beyond Exploitation” (2010) = HEVER is working on his PhD in Germany.
TOPIC = How much money gets made out of the PERCEIVED MILITARY AND SECURITY STATE NEEDS OF ISRAEL.
HEVER: Israel made a FORTUNE out of the Cold War years, especially 1980s under Reagan = A peak in massive investment in Security Exports = 20% of Israeli industrial work force in Military Industry = That collapsed in 1990s as USSR became a memory and big Israeli companies underwent a very severe BUSINESS crisis of low or NO demand + NO HIGH-TECH MILITARY INVESTMENT. RESULT: Bibi said 9ll was GOOD for Israel! = It resulted in a rebirth of the Military-Security Repression State of US Thinking.
HEVER: As the Military Industrial Complex collapsed in the 1990s Israel suffered a deep social change with immigrants from the former USSR integrated into mainly the high-tech sector, which was growing very fast as Israel demilitarized in many ways. + There was a kind of hope from the Oslo negotiations that The Occupation would END = Spurred international corporations to start investing in Israeli NON-MILITARY economy + Consumer economy was going to grow and flourish. SOON PROVEN FALSE with the Year 2000 and the Second Intifada of Palestinians against the Israeli occupation + 9ll in USA caused the MILITARY-REPRESSION INDUSTRY TO SURGE. Many question what caused what. Israel = #1 in IMPORTANCE OF MILITARY ECONOMY to the EXISTENCE of the GOVERNMENT = MAJOR ISRAELI EXPORTS OF REPRESSION TECHNOLOGY. = EXPORTS IN GLOBAL ARMS TRADE = CHINA for example.
HEVER: Some Israeli military companies began competing with USA military companies = USA crushed them very quickly + USA support for Israel stopped there. Israel MIC Companies are forbidden from competing with USA companies = Fighter planes would END USA-Israeli alliance. So Israeli companies targeted complementary products to USA MIC the biggest arms exporter in the world by far.
HEVER: Israel = Highest per capita arms exporter in the world by selling components that COMPLIMENT USA BOEING AND LOCKHEED…Platforms = Special Missiles for F-16 from USA + Navigation Systems + Communications Systems from Israeli. = Sold to regimes the Americans couldn’t openly sell arms to = Israel concentrates on selling to developing economies or to smaller countries = South African apartheid regime + Columbia + Honduras + in the ’60s, ’70s, ’80s, Israel sold weapons to Rhodesia apartheid regime + South Africa, blatantly breaking the embargo + Guatemala during the civil wars + Chile under Pinochet = Countries that USA + EU REFUSED TO SELL weapon but Israel loved it.
FACT: Israel’s GOV is always trying to present itself as a democratic country (FACT = ONLY FOR JEWS) to satisfy USA and American Jews, and get FUNDING to Israel = BUT yet American Jews claim to be left-of-center, progressives but ignored Israel SELLING WEAPONS TO South Africa and Chile and Rhodesia. = USA coordinated ISRAEL in the Iran-Iraq War = Weapons sold to both sides at the same time. Israel sold to Iran & USA sold to Iraq = In full coordination. WARS ARE FOR EXPLOITATION AND BANKSTERS MAKE KILLINGS FINANCING WEAPONS PURCHASES.
HEVER: A debate in Israel is using the arms industry as a strategic asset to export and GROW the Israeli military with this export = Export Military and Repression Systems being developed for the Israeli army (Some becoming a bit obsolete/outdated) = sell them and use the money to develop something new.
HEVER NOTE: Israel after the occupation (1967) France who was the Israel’s biggest arms supplier said they’re going to embargo weapons sales to Israel unless Israel withdraws from the occupied territory. = Israeli government panicked and said Israel must develop everything in Israel = Make our own TANKS + PLANES + WEAPONS + ARMS = BUT USA REPLACED FRANCE AS ISRAELIS # 1 MIC SUPPLIER. But Israel already had decided to make their own MIC WEAPONS and SELL/EXPORT to new markets wherever they find them.
HEVER: In last decade since 9ll ISRAEL shifted their target ARMS SALES from Countries that embargo SOME POPULATION — TO — SELLING TO COUNTRIES WITH EXTREME INEQUALITY (USA #1 IN INEQUALITY IN DEVELOPED WORLD) AND SOCIAL RESENTMENT TO REPRESS THOSE POPULATIONS LIKE PALESTINE. = Israel is WORLD CAPITAL of HOMELAND SECURITY INDUSTRY. = USA EVEN NAMED A MASSIVE DEPARTMENT BY THAT NAME! = Security cameras + Surveillance equipment + Drones + Riot gear + SPY Equipment and computers = Technology GOVERNMANTS CAN USE TO CONTROL + REPRESS their CITIZENS = Actual technology + Their ideology in Videos and Manuals. = SELLING WHAT ISRAEL HAS DONE TO PALESTINE = ALL THE VIDEOS AND TECHNIQUES OF REPRESSION = Help to decide who can pass and who gets a permit. = Technology leave Palestinians no option to resist = COMPLETE IMPRISONMENT = SOLD AROUND THE WORLD! THIS INCLUDES INTERMITTENT PLANNED BOMBING OF THE REPRESSED POPULATION!
ISRAEL = SELLS TO Brazil this technology to repress the favelas in preparation for the World Cup. + India not just in Kashmir but the border with Pakistan + to Eastern Europe + ITALY an extreme-right GOV under Berlusconi to stop asylum-seekers from Africa = Israeli drones + Israeli technology + Buying the legitimacy = Berlusconi (PRO-ISRAEL) was saying Israel is a wonderful country and they REPRESS ALL THE TIME so it is OK! = Israeli model increases their sales by telling regimes you don’t ever have to be worry about an uprising again with OUR REPRESSION SYSTEMS = Repress your people for decades and decades = Just look at ISRAEL since 1948. = A very cynical worldview of 1984. = Use brute force to repress resistance.
HEVER: There are limits to how much it can work = Georgia 2008 in which a FORMER Israeli general formed his own security company and SOLD Georgia Israeli equipment BASED ON Prestige of the Israeli army = WOULD STOP RUSSIAN ARMY = COMPLETE LIE AND COMPLETE FAILURE. = They were immediately defeated = Israeli army completely lost its REPUTATION for fighting other armies = 40 YEARS OF NO SUCCESSFUL ENCOUNTERS WITH AN ARMY. = ISRAEL is completely concentrated on fighting civilians and repressing them = Cutting edge of REPRESSION. = Drones and Surveillance and Spy Equipment. = Netanyahu in California made a deal with Jerry Brown to supply Silicon Valley with cyber security technology. = Integration of American MULTINATIONAL Capital + Israeli REPRESSION SYSTEMS + USA NSA + CIA SPYING + Silicon Valley + Political POWER
HEVER: It’s falling apart = Because Israeli high-tech industry has grown very rapidly in 1990s = DREAM was to be bought by a USA company and then leave Israel + Lots of talented Israeli high-tech entrepreneurs happily moved to other countries + Then after the TECH CRASH of NASDAQ (2000-2008) = ZERO increase in value of Israeli high-tech companies for 8 Years as companies collapsed and lost everything + Only survivors were tied to the REPRESSION RACKET + Security SCAM used by Israeli army = PRIVATIZED SECURITY SCAM! = NEXT BIG SCAM IN ISRAEL IS TO FOLLOW PRIVATIZATION SCAMS DONE IN USA! = OVERCHARGING UNCONTROLLED FRAUD BY PRIVATE CONTRACTORS = ISRAELI ARMY BECOMES LESS AND LESS IMPORTANT AS ISRAELIS REFUSE TO SERVE.
ISRAEL PRIVATIZING Control of the population = Agriculture + Paving roads + Schools = They’re moving very fast to outsource more and more of the function of the army and the police and privatizing the big weapons manufacturers. + FACING a Shortage of soldiers at checkpoints (Israelis REFUSE TO SERVE in ARMY) + CORPORATE CROOKS WANT TO BUY all of these very prestigious GOV OWNED WEAPONS AND REPRESSION FACTORIES = POTENTIAL MONOPOLIES OF FRAUD to sell REPRESSION OF CIVILIANS AROUND THE WORLD — LIKE PALESTINIANS.
CORPORATE CRIMINALS use REPRESSION OF PALESTINIANS AS MARKETTIG TOOL TO SELL IDEAS IN USA AND EVERYWHERE INEQUALITY IS LARGE SO POPULATIONS MUST BE REPRESSED SO THE INEQUALITY SCAMS TO CONTINUE TO ENRICH THE MULTINATIONAL BILLIONAIRES! =
Israel toying with the Neoliberal + Hypercapitalist Monopoly Economy like USA = GOV HAS NO CONCERN FOR ITS CITIZENS OPINIONS OR NEEDS + EVERYONE FOR THEMSELVES + KILL PEOPLE TO ENRICK $TRILLIONAIRES + $BILLIONAIRES
FACT: ISRAEL = Adopted USA economic model of NEAR ZERO welfare to PEOPLE = PAY NO salary to soldiers = Why would a young Israeli serve the state for three years in the army for NOTHING (ZERO MONEY)? = They get enough money to buy cigarettes + Basic needs of soldiers are not covered by the army + On vacation they go back to families’ homes and family buys socks and underwear = MANY soldiers says “my family cannot support me, they will not help me,” then army gives them a temporary apartment during vacations + Laundry services = Army doesn’t want to spend money on SOLDIERS. = So PRIVATIZE ARMY and FORCE PUBLIC TO FUND OVERCHARGING CORPORATE FRAUD! =
Whenever an Israeli goes to a restaurant or a supermarket = They pay for the MILITARY + THE Products they buy = Increasingly going to people owning private companies. + These private security companies dominate every economic transaction.
FACT: THE BILLIONAIRES SCAMMING THE MILITARY REPRESSION SCHEME = Have NO DESIRE for a peace agreement as IT TAKES AWAY THIER MARKETING TOOLS OF REPRESSING THE PALESTINIANS. =
HEVER: Israel’s former prime minister and former minister of defense, Ehud Barak, is now going to the CORPORATE SCAM SECTOR using his many friends who own security/repression/civilian occupation companies, and open GOV doors for them + LOTS OF LOOT from them to continue the occupation = Motto is “This has already been tested by the Israeli army on actual occupied and repressed people.” So every NEW SYSTEM is sold using DEAD and REPRESSED Palestinians. = PROOF REPRESSION WORKS. = Nice little sales videos showing it in ACTION IN PALESTINE + DETAILED USER MANUALS FOR REPRESSION! = Trade shows show how Israeli army uses each and every of new invention in the attack on Gaza = Completely shamelessly. = Attacks become demos FOR NEW SALES AND MASSIVE PROFITS that help hire or BRIBE EVEN MORE senior Israeli officials. = PEACE PROCESS WILL NEVER END AND BOMBING AND INVASION = MORE DEMOS OF NEWEST PRODUCTS! = MORE DEAD PALESTINIANS + EVER MORE REPRESSION!
ISRAEL = Sees “Peace Process is a process of never coming to an agreement about peace.” SELL WEAPONS AND REPRESSION!
NEXT = WHAT a model might look like someday to accommodate the aspirations of Jews, Arabs, and other people living in Palestine and in Israel.
