I left at five

אני יצאתי בחמש

This widely used expression is taken from a TV comedy sketch show. Created by one of Israel’s most prolific screenwriters, actors, and comedians, Adir Miller, it was first aired in November 2019. The new catchphrase represents stubborn denial, even when there is absolute proof to the contrary—alongside excessive self-confidence and the evasion of responsibility.

It follows the logic of Shaggy, who sang in November 2000

Never admit to a word when she say
And if she claim a you, tell her, “Baby, no way”

… No way
No way
Baby, no way

… But she caught me on the counter (It wasn’t me)
Saw me bangin’ on the sofa (It wasn’t me)
I even had her in the shower (It wasn’t me)
She even caught me on camera (It wasn’t me)
Saw the marks on my shoulder (It wasn’t me)
Heard the words that I told her (It wasn’t me)
Heard the screams gettin’ louder (It wasn’t me)
She stayed until it was over

In Miller’s short comedy sketch a young soldier is asked by her officer at what time she left her shift the day before. She keeps on insisting that she left at five despite mounting evidence that she left at four including her own admission on a CCTV footage in which she clearly states that she is cutting the shift at four and that her officer can ‘go and look for her friends’…She summarises by stating ‘I do not know what I said or did not say, I left at five!’

Laughing aside, this state of mind reflects the mental state of the Israelophobic, anti-Zionist cult which has fast developed into an anti-Jewish, purely antisemitic movement engulfing the toxic combination of the far Left and radical Islamic politics (also described as the Red-Green alliance or Islamo-leftism).

On page 80 of my book Revealing Israeli Secrets: The Wisdom of Hebrew Proverbs, I cover, with the help of Jake Wallis Simons, the UK columnist, author and broadcaster, the starting point of the movement. Between 1967 and 1988, the KGB embarked on a massive disinformation campaign called SIG, short for Sionistskiye Gosudarstva, or ‘Zionist Governments’, which flooded the world with Israelophobic paranoia, moulded around the Soviet worldview and objectives.

It is a little-known truth that all of the Israelophobic tropes in circulation today – which accuse the Jewish state of things like racism, white supremacism, ethnic cleansing, colonialism and apartheid – were designed by the Kremlin during the Cold War.

So, you are welcome to sing along:

The population of Gaza is growing, and people are gaining weight = Genocide.

Israeli Arab voters have the largest-ever representation in the Israeli parliament following the elections last month with 19 out of 120 MPs = Apartheid and ethnic cleansing.

The Land of Zion (Israel) is the ancestral home of the Jews (whose actual name is derived from the area of Judea) = Colonialism.

And of course, the melting pot of Israel which “collected “Jews from all over the world including Ethiopia = White supremacy…

Queers for Palestine jumping on the roof of a bus during a gay parade or being pushed from the roof of a building = You decide…I left at five

And the madness is getting worse:

Riots in Paris = Blame the Jews

Republican defeat = Blame the Jews

Hitler and Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi leader and his propaganda chief, directed the Nazis’ psychological warfare campaign, uniting the German population by turning them against their ‘enemies’. They would have had a blast. We are again seeing the same lies and hatred that portrayed Jews as sub-human and as Germany’s greatest enemies in the 1930s. Goebbels (and obviously the Russians) thought that people would only believe lies if they were repeated often enough, and that the bigger the lie, the greater the chance it would be believed (this method is known as the ‘Big Lie’). Hamas and its backers and supporters are using the exact same ‘Big Lie’ propaganda methodology (page 86).

These days Tina Turner would have sung – What’s truth got to do with it? What’s truth but a second-hand notion?…

The decline of religion and the role of the church in the Western world

I agree with Jake Wallis Simons who argues that the role of the church is being filled by a new Islamo-leftism religion. I consider it a cult which provides all the human needs that the church used to provide. A sense of purpose, unity, community, safety in numbers and even astonishingly, a sense of fighting for the right course and justice. This cult is much bigger than simple Jew-hatred, it is a clearly declared war against the values of the West. All you have to do is just listen to what the leaders of the movement are saying as I clearly stated in my previous post on Substack – ‘Who is wise? He who sees what is yet to be born’.

Don’t Be Just – Be Clever

There are many discussions within the Jewish community about what needs to be done as a response to the mass antisemitic hysteria gripping the Left. Given everything that I have written above, I believe that we should not do much – just wait.

You can see in the video of the TV sketch, even without understanding a word of Hebrew, that the officer gets up and leaves the room at the end.

Israel’s best tactic is to be clever and continue to convey that it is the gatekeeper on the front line against radical Islam. I believe that most people, the ‘silent majority’, in the world understand this. I believe that politicians sooner or later will have to adjust as well. My opinion is that, if they don’t, their countries will pay a heavy price (page 201).

Just as New York’s mayor is doing his best to wreck the city’s economy and society, all elected fanatics will eventually show their true nature. The Left was besotted with Russell Brand, yet now it scrambles to distance itself from him. Rape and Sharia law have no place in the West.
