Zio-Populism: The New Alliance Between Israel and Europe’s Nationalists
The present populist era is rife with all manner of odd realignments.
Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt recently faced sharp criticism from its ex-director Abraham Foxman over his initial plan to speak at the Israeli Diaspora Ministry’s International Conference on Combating Antisemitism in Jerusalem. For Foxman, the current ADL chief’s decision to share the stage with European populist figures was a bridge too far.
This conference counted on the presence of Jordan Bardella, the leader of France’s National Rally party; member of the European Parliament Hermann Tertsch of Spain’s Vox party; MEP Charlie Weimers of the Sweden Democrats party; MEP Marion Maréchal, granddaughter of National Front founder Jean-Marie Le Pen; and MEP Kinga Gál, of Hungary’s governing Fidesz party.
“Neither the left nor the right are friends of Israel and the Jewish people,” said Abraham Foxman, who led the ADL for nearly three decades. “Since the explosion of left-inspired antisemitism and anti-Israel hate in the last several years, the pseudo-Fascist right is trying to use the Jewish community as a platform, to demonstrate how legitimate and tolerant they are. Israel and the Jewish community should not give them legitimacy.”
Foxman is correct. Parties like the AfD and National Rally gain legitimacy by being slavishly pro-Israel—an excellent marker of the power of Jews in Western societies.
The presence of these controversial figures prompted a backlash from the ruling liberal establishment of the West. Felix Klein, Germany’s commissioner for combating antisemitism, canceled his appearance, citing his shock at the participation of populist politicians. Likewise, French-Jewish intellectual and ardent Zionist Bernard-Henri Lévy withdrew from his keynote address after learning Bardella would be speaking at the conference. Greenblatt, himself, eventually bowed out as speaker.
Bardella was particularly vehement in his comments on anti-Semitism:
“Since Oct. 7 [2023] in particular, France and Europe are witnessing a deadly honeymoon between Islamists and the far left,” Bardella said. “One provides the fanatics, the other institutionalizes the evil … We have to face anti-Jewish action head on … We have a solemn commitment in France to fight antisemitism everywhere at all times in all of its forms, whether from radical Islamists and the far left or the far right and their delirious plots. None of this hatred has any place in France or Europe.”
Bardella linked “the rise of Islamism, resurgence of antisemitism and the migratory phenomenon tearing apart all Western societies,” and said that the “National Rally is the best shield for the Jews in France.”
In contrast with his party’s founder, Bardella noted that he visited Yad Vashem and spoke of “the unspeakable horrors” of the Holocaust.
Despite the controversy surrounding the Israeli-sponsored conference, it proceeded without issue. Overall, it reflects a notable shift in Israeli foreign relations, spearheaded by Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli of the Likud Party. Even before the Israeli government officially abandoned its policy of avoiding cooperation with right-wing populist parties in Europe, Chikli had been engaging with European populists.
He made appearances at conservative gatherings such as the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Washington, where he praised President Donald Trump for his efforts to combat antisemitism. Chikli also spoke last year at Europa Viva 24, a gathering hosted by Spain’s Vox party, where he shared a platform with Marine Le Pen.
This growing closeness between Israel’s current leadership and European nationalist parties has stirred controversy both at home and abroad. Chikli’s vocal support for Le Pen during France’s recent elections drew criticism from diplomats in both countries. Last month, he and several Likud colleagues attended CPAC Hungary. In Western capitals, Hungary has been increasingly treated as a pariah for its unconventional foreign policy of treating NATO rivals such as China and Russia as normal countries and for its defense of traditional values and opposition to mass migration.
To those who have a rudimentary knowledge of Jewish influence in Western politics, the notion of Jewish groups aligning themselves with the populist would be almost unheard of. However, for seasoned observers of Jewish political behavior, these Jewish overtures to the European right are another classic case of the “Kosher Sandwich.” The strategy is quite simple: Jews take advantage, or sometimes even create a pressing social issue — immigration in this case. They subsequently insert themselves and their associates into both sides of the debate. But the Jewish interest in this case is to twist and exploit the issue for their own interests. Political newcomers, unaware of the deception, accept the Jew as an ally, convinced they are united in a common cause — only to be misled in the end.
One can see this in the “counter-Jihad” movement. Anti-Muslim activist Tommy Robinson, who has a history of receiving funding from the pro-Israel Middle East Forum and Jewish tech billionaire Robert Shillman, has been one of the most useful front goys for Jewish interests. While he has valid critiques about Islam’s corrosive influence in the United Kingdom and other West countries, Robinson has no issue with the UK importing millions of Hindus and Sikhs from the Indian subcontinent.
In effect, Robinson serves Jewish interests by promoting a Zionist-approved form of immigration restriction. Certain non-Whites — Muslims from the Middle East and South Asia — are demonized and barred from entering Western countries while other non-Whites less hostile, or at least apathetic, to Jewish political machinations continue flooding the Old Continent by the millions. West.
Jewish co-optation of European populist parties is a multi-decade project. Prime Minister of Hungary Viktor Orbán, who has otherwise sensible views on immigration and foreign policy, has a blindspot for Israel. This is largely due to his connection to Jewish Republican strategist Arthur Finkelstein—one of the key architects of Orbán’s and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s electoral successes.
As a result of this Jewish connection, Orbán has been one of Israel’s strongest diplomatic allies in Europe, especially in the post-October 7 world. Despite his positive overtures to the Israeli government, the Hungarian Prime Minister continues to be demonized for being antisemitic by Western liberal institutions.
Such Jewish penetration of the populist Right has also been present in Italy. Matteo Salvini, leader of Italy’s right-wing Lega party, has cultivated strong ties with Israel, particularly under Benjamin Netanyahu’s leadership. Salvini has visited Israel multiple times, including in 2018 when he met Netanyahu, who called him a “great friend of Israel.” During these visits, Salvini expressed support for Israeli policies and criticized the EU’s stance on Israel.
A similar trend has occurred in the Netherlands. Geert Wilders, the founder and leader of the Party for Freedom (PVV) has a long-standing, personal connection to Israel, having lived and volunteered there as a young man and visited the country dozens of times. He firmly believes that Israel should have dominion over the entire land between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, opposes the creation of a Palestinian state, and has openly advocated for moving the Dutch embassy to Jerusalem. Wilders has met with Israeli leaders including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Isaac Herzog, and other high-ranking officials. He has been welcomed as a “true friend of Israel” by Netanyahu and has attended official events in Israel.
With prominent French populist leader Marine Le Pen being convicted for embezzling European Union funds, Israel now sees an opening for outreach in the French populist scene. It has invited Jordan Bardella, president of the National Rally (RN), and Marion Maréchal (Le Pen’s niece), to official conferences in Jerusalem, including the aforementioned government-organized antisemitism conference attended by the Netanyahu government.
Both Le Pen and Bardella have sought to rebrand the National Rally as a party amicable to Zionism, emphasizing support for the Jewish state’s security and opposition to “Islamist ideology.” Israeli Diaspora Affairs Minister Chikli publicly endorsed Le Pen, calling her “excellent for Israel” due to her anti-immigration and anti-Islamist positions.
The linking of right-wing populism with Zionist-friendly causes has also been pursued by political strategists and intellectuals like Steve Bannon and Yoram Hazony since the 2010s. Their distinctive approaches—Bannon’s political organizing versus Hazony’s think tank-building—represent two avenues that the American conservative movement has taken to make the world safe for Zionism in the populist era.
All things considered, what’s unfolding here appears to be a part of a backup plan for international Jewry to preserve itself in a 21st century marked by significant geopolitical upheaval. In a world where the United States can’t always be counted on to slavishly defend Israel, Jewish interest groups will strive to have all their bases covered by buying off populist parties abroad. As more and more voters in the West grow disillusioned with the post-World War II order, populist parties are well-positioned to upend traditional conservative and liberal parties and assume the levers of power.
As a result, the shiftiest elements of the transnational Jewish community will make attempts to insinuate themselves in these populist parties to ensure that they don’t become explicitly anti-Israel, much less antisemitic. Europe’s natural tendency, as evidenced by the scores of mass expulsions of the Jews across the Old Continent over two millennia of recorded history, is one of directly confronting the excesses of Jewish economic and political machinations.
To prevent this persistent element of European politics from making a comeback, Jewish interest groups have made it a point to defang White political power on both sides of the pond since the end of World II. In a post-liberal order, where the United States is no longer the unipolar power and its NGO appendages have lost their credibility, the Jewish diaspora will continue its subversive agenda albeit with a few tweaks in its strategy. Enter kosher populism—the only form of White grievance politics allowed in Jewish-dominated polities.
White advocates would be wise to not fall for the glossy exterior of regime-approved “populist” movements. While they may appear to be anti-system, their flaws with respect to challenging Jewish influence, ruin whatever positives they bring to the table. A hardened political cynic would view philosemitic populist organizations as containment vehicles designed to deradicalize Whites and prepare them for their eventual replacement by millions of foreign interlopers. Under normal circumstances, the White segment of the electorate would be gravitating towards nationalist parties that confront Jewish political power head on.
It can’t be stressed enough that European ethnic nationalism and strong anti-Zionist political movements are not permitted in the West. By leveraging hate speech laws, enforcing deplatforming across social media and financial sectors, and promoting controlled opposition groups, the Jewish lobby has thoroughly shaped the discourse in a way that prevents a friend-enemy distinction from ever materializing—the critical factor in undermining the Jewish supremacist projects.
Thanks to the Talmudic sleight of hand a certain faction of Jews has employed in their infiltration of nationalist groups, they ensure that Whites become cognitively polluted by Judaized talking points and expend vast resources and political energy in futile causes. In the meantime, the transnational criminal enterprise that is the Jewish global network continues to act with impunity—be it in the Middle East through the further consolidation of Israel’s geopolitical standing or by accelerating the demographic annihilation of the West via mass migration.
A strict policy of social distancing from institutions that are committed to preserving the Judeo-American Empire is of the essence. Given the demographic crises facing so many Western countries, it makes little sense to strike a Faustian pact with the Jewish institutions responsible for these developments.
As they say, with the Jews you lose.
Perhaps this is the key sentence in this fine article: “Jewish co-optation of European populist parties is a multi-decade project.”
Right, as the writer points out this has been occuring in many countries in Europe, more or less during the same time period. The Sweden Democrats and Vlaams Belang are two other examples of formerly somewhat sound parties going down this route as well. Spanish Vox is a more recent party but also pro-Israel. There is nothing organic about this, clearly something has been going on behind scenes as they say, for it to be happening concurrently all over the continent.
In the EU, this group of parties are (for the most part) represented by the Patriots.eu bloc. In February of this year they invited the Likud party as an observer member. Appalling in light of what is going in Gaza during the leadership of said party’s Prime Minister Mr. Netanyahu:

Fill your nations with hostile tribes of brown people and then take control of the rising sentiment against it. The chutzpah! Here is where sharing the research of Macdonald, Joyce, Sanderson etc. becomes a priority.
Mr. Nino’s informative article is the most depressing thing I have read in a long while. I want to know the unvarnished truth about our predicament but sometimes reality is a two-by-four to the face. How is it possible that our enemies have gained control of so much of the (alleged) opposition? Is there no politician anywhere who can resist their mind control, bribes, threats or whatever they use to bring everyone to heel? This current international alien occupation that we endure is the result of a level of hatred, power-lust, deception, determination, patience and coordinated effort that I can’t even imagine.
So I put on a smile and carry on.
“How is it possible that our enemies have gained control of so much of the (alleged) opposition?”
That’s easy to answer. It is called holocaustianity.

One must always exercise care.
The threat(s) to Israel are the first concern.
Shared opposition to Islamic jihad and consolidation in Europe has created a de facto alliance, which has muted, or reversed, Jewish support for the woke agenda, whose mainly non-Jewish recent advocated has turned into an attack on the “nationalism” and “colonialism” Israelis.
A Gift Horse is not necessarily a Trojan Horse, but after an oral inspection, stay on the saddle and ensure it goes in the right direction, along with the established stable-mates.
It is not a good idea to join the Muslim invaders in their attacks on Jews or Hindus, but if they want to “deny the holocaust” on “social” media, let them get on with it, and take the flak, though on this issue of 80 years ago we are entitled to question that a Palestinian leader in 1939 “planned with Hitler to construct gas chambers outside Nablus” to “exterminate the Jews of the Middle East” (Martin Sugarman, “The Jewish Chronicle,” May 9, 2025, p.4). But then “antisemitism” is simply a “mental illness” of Gentiles of many different nations or beliefs that has persisted for 4000 years!
“Bardella linked “the rise of Islamism, resurgence of antisemitism and the migratory phenomenon tearing apart all Western societies,” and said that the “National Rally is the best shield for the Jews in France.”
So much for the national front. At any rate, because of the ruthless genocide in gaza and the massive displacement of blacks by invading latinos, blacks are coming out anti-semitic in larger numbers, (which jews see because they spy on everyone), so that century-old hiding spot is disappearing for them. Their game plan has them shifting en masse from left to right, and are actually trying to hide behind us. Can you believe it. Jews are now using the n-word and hanging out in NS chatrooms. Loomer is a good example, and this latest shiloh psyop (hebrew city in ancient israel) is another one. Left, right, up, down, all around, jews are loyal to no one.
“The strategy is quite simple: Jews take advantage, or sometimes even create a pressing social issue — immigration in this case. They subsequently insert themselves and their associates into both sides of the debate.”
Sums up exactly what is happening here in Ireland. But recently it seems some of our “kosher nationalists” have retired from the struggle, as they have been exposed. They are preparing some new kosher nationalist leaders. This time, they are being warned not to make any public statements supporting Israel’s right to defence, or even to exist.

AI has omitted certain details in the translation, e.g. that if a party is legally classified as right-wing extr*mist, i.e. anti-c*nstitutional, this has far-reaching consequences for its members.
For example, civil servants (such as p*lice officers, soldiers, teachers or university professors) are then no longer allowed to be members of this party, which massively curtails its human and intellectual resources of manpower and lowers its level of defense. Anyone who was a member of this party will no longer find a job.
In addition, AI has omitted the fact that the left-wing parties are the biggest beneficiaries of the continued existence of the AfD because they are able to divide the right-wing camp, despite public statements to the contrary. You could say that having a scapegoat to beat *p on and point the finger at to your heart’s content is the best guarantee of making yourself look noble and competent.
The AfD’s biggest enemy is not the left, but the CDU. The AfD has ultimately filled the gap left by the CDU since Merkel’s shift to the left. Franz-Josef Straus, who was considered a hardliner of law and order, coined the decades-old principle: “There must be no other party to the right of the CDU/CSU!”
Merkel’s soft CDU is mainly responsible for the migration disaster. We are dealing here with left-wing Christians (see also left-wing Catholicism/Protestantism). Merkel has distorted the CDU into an arbitrary party that, instead of pursuing realpolitik, chases after the latest “popular” left-wing trends and h*jacks them (such as the environmental demands of the Greens).
Merkel & Co have bullied all the character heads out of the party and/or removed them from office (“de-b*lled”). If this had not been allowed to happen, the AfD would not have emerged at all, as it was initially formed by non-political intellectuals on a voluntary basis and/or disappointed and frustrated ex-CDU and ex-FDP members. The current AfD leadership is an aloof clique of West Germans who have established themselves there thanks to an overwhelming majority of an East German voter base.

“Dilbert” is said to have been named after a ‘WW2 idiot’, but this is incongruous in that, despite the phononymically meaningless first syllable ‘Dil’, the supposedly ‘old-fashioned’ second one ‘Bert’ comes from Old High German.

The playlists by Lee Mansfield, the much younger brother of the great musician and producer Tony (New Musik) are an interesting selection with a row of hour-long mixes of mostly lesser known songs. https://www.youtube.com/@MIDWICHGRAFFITI/playlists

I even listened to many of the Morrissey remixes, although I don’t really like him as a musician (too “English” for my taste). The reason for his anti-Islamic stance is possibly more his homosexuality (which is not openly staged, after all). He even ran for election for a split-off mini-party, which the hypocrite Farage defamed as “Nazis and racists”.
The cynical zeitgeist commentator and self-proclaimed anti-establishment infant terrible is said to have agitated against the “Iron Lady” for years. He is currently one of the “most important British personalities” and is estimated to be worth 50 million dollars. Like Adams (75 million), no one can spoil his career anymore. Incidentally, Thatcher was Germanophobic in the tradition of Churchill and opposed German reunification.

The late Rabbi Hugo Gryn, a “Holocaust Survivor” with a strange story about he and his young friends in Auschwitz came across a “gas chamber”, once wrote that Jews never feel secure unless they are supreme; and it is reasonable to discourage attempts to turn organisations or causes into servants of their particular interests or apprehensions.
However, Jewish opposition, however recent, to the immigration of Muslims and other anti-Israel communities into Europe is to be welcomed, with appropriate caution regarding motivation, side-effects and outcome. Paris was “worth a Mass” in 1593; Europe is worth a Matzo in 2025.
