What passes as art in the West: Sancta Susanna, staged by Florentina Holzinger
Explicit lesbian sex scenes at the OPERA leave 18 audience members requiring medical treatment: Graphic show features naked nuns on roller skates and Christ having his loincloth whipped off
A radical feminist opera which includes explicit lesbian sex scenes, real blood and injuries, and naked roller-skating nuns, has left 18 audience members needing medical treatment in Austria.
Sancta Susanna by composer Paul Hindemith caused a scandal back in 1921, with outraged critics labelling the one-act opera, which tells the story of a suppressed nun discovering her sexuality, too blasphemous to be shown.
Its premiere at the Stuttgart Opera was cancelled, but more than 100 years later, it has now been staged in the city for the first time – with the shock factor amped up to dizzying new heights in what its creators call a ‘radical vision of the Holy Mass’.
Extreme performance artist Florentina Holzinger is behind the astonishing adaptation, which sees its all-female cast playing nuns who strip off their habits throughout the ‘sensual, poetic and wild’ show.
The most bizarre scenes include an actress with dwarfism dressed as the Pope being raised up into the air and spun around by a robotic arm, while another performs Eminem songs dressed as Jesus.

‘Bach meets metal, the Weather Girls meet Rachmaninoff – and naked nuns meet roller skates,’ is how the Stuttgart State Opera website summarises the performance.
The ‘feminist mass’ sees the central character, a young nun called Susanna discover her sexuality, eventually pulling down Christ’s loincloth on the crucifix in the scandalous climax. At one point, the nude nun has sex with the icon.
The performance has an age restriction of 18, and incorporates sex acts, painful stunts, real and fake blood, piercings and the infliction of a wound on stage.
Naked performers hang out of bells as clappers, with only their bare bottoms or heads visible, while others scale a rock wall in nothing but harnesses and clamber up ropes.
In one scene, tattooed nude performers clamber over a table, drinking wine and singing, while another lifts a sword in the shape of a crucifix and pushes it down her throat.
In one very irreligious exchange, an actress playing Jesus spanks a semi-naked woman of the cloth.
And in a particularly disturbing scene, bodies are strung up on the wall to mimic Christ on the cross, before vats of fake blood start pouring down over them.
Most shockingly of all, one critic detailed the moment an injury is inflicted on one of the actors live on stage.

The provocative show is based on an opera which was decried as ‘blasphemous’ by critics
To illustrate the Eucharist, the body of Christ, a piece of skin is cut from a performer’s side, which is then grilled medium rare, according to German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung.
On the show’s website, it warns attendees that the performance art is ‘not fake, but real.’
In the case of the sexual violence shown, the theatre issues explicit trigger warnings, saying some may be left in ‘discomfort’ or even ‘traumatised’ by the performance.
The almost three-hour show, which has no break, proved too much for some attending its Stuttgart showings.
An opera spokesman said those affected were in the rows near the stage, and would have known ‘what they are letting themselves in for.’
The opera company recommends the performance to viewers who are ‘daringly looking for new theatrical experiences.’

Democrats’ Third World Reasoning
Watching the vice-presidential debate last week, I realized that Gov. Tim Walz has a primitive’s understanding of cause-and-effect. It pairs nicely with his primitive’s understanding of representative democracy, economics, science, national security, deductive reasoning and the Electoral College.
As our country becomes more DEI-oriented (the heart and soul of the Democratic Party), we can expect to see a lot more problems with causal reasoning — not to be confused with casual reasoning, which seems to be Kamala Harris’ method of thinking. The “diverse” cultures the Democratic Party is hauling in are notoriously poor at grasping causality.
Thus, for example, in Africa, AIDS-infected men firmly believe that sex with a virgin cures AIDS, because witch doctors told them so. (Duh.) Like communism and recycling, the virgin rape plan has never actually worked. But despite that, and despite massive international education campaigns, the locals persist in seeking this “cure” even today, raping toddlers, their own daughters and babies in diapers — as documented in innumerable official reports.
Our completely harmless trading partners, the Chinese — also big “traditional medicine” devotees — believe that ingesting tiger penis is a cure for impotence. (The good news is, if you’re a man in Africa suffering from both AIDS and erectile dysfunction, have we gotta deal for you!)
The fanatical hunt for tiger penis to serve the Chinese market has put tigers on the endangered species list and already driven 3 of 8 tiger subspecies to extinction. Tiger poachers in India have slaughtered so many tigers that the population has cratered from 100,000 in the early 20th century to about 3,300 today. In China itself, the tiger population totals around 50. Not 50,000. Fifty.
At this point, conservationists think the only thing that might save the tiger from total extinction is the introduction of Viagra, because, unlike tiger penis soup, it actually works. (Which is awesome because if there’s one hellish tomorrow even I can’t imagine, it’s a world in which the population of China is declining even a teeny, tiny bit due to a national E.D. epidemic.)
Just last week, it was reported that administrators of a school in India sacrificed (murdered) an 11-year-old boy to make the school “prosperous,” in accordance with a Hindu Tantric ritual. To be fair, the results aren’t in yet. I think they’re waiting until the end of the school year to publish a final fiscal report. Fingers crossed!
The cause-and-effect logic of the cultures currently colonizing America is remarkably similar to Walz’s reasoning. It’s probably not a coincidence that he’s a major proponent of importing gigantic numbers of Somalis, Ethiopians and Indians to Minnesota. If you think Minnesota schools are prosperous now, just wait.
Here are a few of Walz’s cause-and-effect claims from the debate. They are bedrock beliefs of the entire Democratic Party, but most Democrats are smart enough not to make such comical statements in front of a national audience.
WALZ ON HOUSING:
“People with stable housing end up with stable jobs. People with stable housing have their kids able to get to school. All of those things in the long run end up saving our money.”
This is the logic behind every Democratic policy, also known as the chicken and the egg fallacy.
Democrats say: People with drive, initiative, character and a strong work ethic tend have stable housing … Therefore, if we give stable housing to people who could never figure it out on their own — PRESTO! — they’ll have drive, initiative, character, etc.
Result: Cabrini Green and hundreds more housing projects like it, marinating in gang warfare, drugs, trash, graffiti, shootings and other incidents of, you know, “stable housing.”
Democrats: People with drive, initiative, character and a strong work ethic tend to live in nice neighborhoods … So let’s move people in bad neighborhoods to better neighborhoods, and they’ll magically turn into people with drive, initiative, character, etc.
Result: A doubling of violent crime in cities with Section 8 housing (the program that moves poor people into neighborhoods beyond their means).
Excerpts from Warren Balogh’s “How Gaza Has Changed Everything”
How Gaza Has Changed Everything
Text of a speech given by Warren Balogh to a live audience in September 2024.
Let me start off with a disclaimer. I’m going to be speaking today very highly of the Palestinian people and the Palestinian cause. And I’m aware that I’m addressing a gathering of nationalists who are strongly opposed to mass Muslim migration into Europe. We all saw what happened in the UK a few months ago, and we all saw how the Palestinian flag was being used by the Muslims there—mostly by Pakistanis—as a symbol rallying against the St George’s Cross carried by the native English people.
We’re all sick of Muslims in Europe. And we all support the struggle of the English people, and all our European kinsmen, against the occupation of their cities and towns by invaders from the Muslim world. But none of this has anything to do with the struggle of the Palestinians in Gaza.
The Gazans are not all Muslim, for one thing: Israel treats Palestinian Christians just as harshly, and Israel has blown up churches—some of the oldest on Earth—just as indiscriminately as it has destroyed hundreds of mosques. The Palestinians also are obviously not the same people as British Pakistanis, for example, or Turks living in Germany, or North Africans living in France.
The Palestinians are mostly Levantine Arabs, and far from wanting to invade Europe, they are people who have endured the worst atrocities for decades precisely because they don’t want to leave their ancient homeland. They don’t want to go to Europe, or even to Egypt, because they love the native soil of their forefathers—and in fact their entire national consciousness is founded on this blood-and-soil connection.
Now before I talk about what happened on October 7th of last year, let’s talk about what didn’t happen. In the first place, October 7th wasn’t a terrorist attack. Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu is fond of comparing October 7th to 9/11. In fact, he likes to say that Oct. 7th is the equivalent of twenty 9/11s. (I’ve never been sure whether he means the number of people killed relative to the total population, or that one Israeli life is worth 20 American lives).
But regardless, Oct. 7th was not a terrorist act—that is to say, an indiscriminate mass attack meant to kill as many civilians as possible. Forty babies weren’t, in fact, beheaded by Hamas. In fact, only two infants died on Oct. 7th, and it seems both of these were killed by Israel under its so-called Hannibal Directive. There also were no mass rapes, in fact there were no rapes at all. This lie has been debunked over and over again, so often that the New York Times actually had to issue a rare retraction, but it continues to be repeated.
October 7th was, strictly speaking, a raid—to use military terminology. The target was a dozen or so Israeli military bases outside the fortified wall bordering Gaza. The objective was to capture Israeli military personnel and take them, as prisoners, back to the territory controlled by Hamas, to be exchanged for the release of some of the thousands of Palestinians being held in Israeli prisons. A large percentage of these Palestinian prisoners are held as “administrative detainees,” which means indefinitely incarcerated without charge, but nobody ever calls them “hostages.”
The political background on this raid, why it was launched, has to do with the condition of the people living in Gaza, their status under international law, and a very specific chain of events leading up to October 7th.
The Gaza Strip is an area of about 140 square miles populated by about 2 ½ million Palestinians, mostly refugees who were ethnically cleansed from the territory carved out to form the State of Israel in 1948. Gaza was under direct Israeli military occupation for decades after the 1967 Six-Day-War, and the Gaza Strip is still considered to be occupied by Israel under international law. In 2005 Israel withdrew from Gaza, and in the last free election held in Gaza, the people there elected Hamas over the corrupt Palestinian Authority.
It’s important to note that Hamas, although designated a terrorist organization by the U.S. government, is no more a terrorist organization than the Nordic Resistance Movement in Sweden, a pro-White political party which runs candidates in elections and was also recently declared a terrorist organization by Antony Blinken’s State Department. Hamas has been running the Gaza Strip as their elected government for almost 20 years: not only governing but providing social services such as food banks, quality schools and clinics. Hamas has a military wing, just like the United States government—and the only reason they aren’t a uniformed regular army like any other country is because the Palestinians are not allowed their own military under Israeli occupation.
When Hamas was elected, the Jews—as they are wont to do—decided they didn’t like the result of a democratic election and imposed a blockade on Gaza. This blockade has strangled Gaza for nearly 20 years, with Israel completely controlling the free movement of people, food, clothing, medicine into and out of the territory. This is the real reason for October 7th: the Palestinians there have been subjected by Israel to two decades of crushing collective punishment—and after the Abraham Accords normalized relations between Israel and some of its Arab neighbors—the fate of the Palestinians in Gaza appeared to be sealed. Their last peaceful spasm of protest was at the border during 2018-19, when thousands of Palestinian men, women and children non-violently demonstrated outside the wall surrounding Gaza in what was called the March of Return.
These protests went on for 18 months, but the world turned a blind eye as Israel not only completely ignored their pleas, but slowly and methodically subjected the protestors to terror and murder. 223 protestors were killed by Israel—including 46 children—and over 9,000 wounded in these peaceful, non-violent protests. Israeli snipers even made a game out of shooting Palestinians in the knees, crippling them for life. One Israeli sniper bragged that he broke the standing record for knee-shots in a single day, scoring 42 hits. …
On August 7th, after horrific new revelations of mass rape and torture at Israel’s Sde Teiman prison camp, Israeli lawmakers and TV anchors responded by publicly making arguments in favor of the systematic mass sexual abuse of prisoners. And this week, Israeli Mossad took their diabolical ingenuity to a new level of grotesque horror, detonating thousands of personal electronic devices all over Lebanon, blowing off the fingers, faces and hands of thousands of people in civilian life.
Jews and Court Historians of World War 2 often describe the Holocaust as “the most documented genocide in history.” These same individuals, such as Deborah Lipstadt—who was confirmed by the US Senate on March 30, 2022 as the “Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism,” with the rank of Ambassador—deny a genocide in Gaza is even taking place, even though social media such as Twitter and Telegram are awash with thousands of pictures and videos of little children blown to bits, their limbs missing, their skulls blown out, their mangled bodies dangling from their parents’ arms like rag dolls.
There is more evidence of the abominable snowman than the gas chambers at Auschwitz—Gaza is CERTAINLY the most documented genocide in all of human history—but the position of these Jews is that calling Gaza a genocide amounts to antisemitism, and that we need laws banning it. No joke: the U.S. government is working to adopt the IHRA so-called “Working Definition of Antisemitism,” which includes anti-Zionism, as part of American Civil Rights law, meaning that anyone who expresses or allows anti-Zionism to be expressed in schools or workplaces could be sued or criminally penalized by the Justice Department for violation of Title 6 of the Civil Rights Act.
Israel is a rogue state, flagrantly committing genocide and war crimes as a matter of course. They’ve been able to get away with this because they enjoy the total, blanket protection of the United States and some European puppet regimes. Carl Schmitt wrote that the Exception to the Rule is the ultimate test of political power and reveals in whom that power is vested—the Exception reveals who is truly sovereign in a given state.
…
But with even all the lies, obfuscations, denials, victim-blaming and intelligence ops, Israel and world Jewry have lost the battle of public opinion. Even in the United States, for the first time ever, majorities of young people—including right-wing Whites—are rejecting U.S. support for Israel and, more importantly, are aware of the evil effects of Jewish power.
You see, this isn’t like the Iraq War, when the Jewish neocons were able to hide behind the Bush administration and drag America into a war against one of Israel’s regional enemies without most Americans knowing how or why. In 2003, the great Prime Minister of Malaysia, Mahathir, said: “the Jews rule the world by proxy, they get others to fight and die for them.” He was right on the money, but most Americans didn’t realize it at the time. This time, the Jews are having to rely more and more on themselves.
They’re right in the spotlight, and the whole world is seeing them for what they are: a people without honor, a race of gangsters and murderers, an international criminal syndicate who control the hated puppet regimes of the West through bribery, blackmail, threats and extortion. AIPAC recently spent $100 million buying off American elections, a drop in the bucket compared with the total amount in spending and earned media by Jewish billionaires and their stooges in U.S. politics, but such naked buying-off of American politicians was noted by all. Election interference? Add that to the list of Israel’s Great Exceptions.
Facts about the attack on the U.S.S. Liberty are becoming widely known. The connection between Jewish billionaire donors and top politicians in the Democrat and Republican parties, including both presidential nominees, are all out in the open. It’s very likely that President Biden’s entire re-election campaign was a casualty of the Gaza war. Young people saw the same President who campaigned on fighting racism and hate eagerly endorsing, shielding, protecting, defending and funding the worst war crimes ever captured on video. Scranton Joe became Genocide Joe—this will be his legacy.
His cabinet is a veritable junta of anti-White Hebrews: Alejandro Mayorkas with his Great Replacement policies; Merrick Garland, the former Janet Reno disciple who brought Cheka-style secret police tactics and ideology to the Justice Department and the FBI; Antony Blinken as America’s top diplomat, with his open allegiance—“as a Jew”—to Israel. Yet his Jewish advisors and allies were the first ones to toss him in the gutter when he outlived his usefulness, and this self-styled champion of “democracy” was undemocratically replaced on the ticket in what was effectively a Jewish coup.
U.S. military priorities, which were supposedly focused on Putin first, and China second, have shifted strategically in a way that also exposes the Great Exception to the world. Zelensky, formerly the darling of Washington’s ruling elite, was left high and dry with a munitions shortage against Russia as the U.S. redirected everything to Israel so Netanyahu could keep pounding high-rises and civilian infrastructure. In the last few months, the U.S. redirected so much support to shield Israel from possible retaliation for its terrorist attacks on its neighbors, that the South China Sea was actually left without a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier group: both the USS Theodore Roosevelt and USS Abraham Lincoln were moved to the Middle East.
Apparently protecting Taiwan is not as important as making sure Netanyahu can keep dismembering babies. And speaking of Netanyahu, did any of you see his recent address to the Joint Session of Congress? After seeing that, I realized “ZOG” isn’t an epithet—it’s a descriptive term. The worst war criminal of the 21st century got such an overwhelmingly gushing response from the bought-and-paid-for representatives of the regime, it was almost cartoonish. Nearly five minutes of rapturous applause as he entered. Almost 50 standing ovations in the course of his speech. I cannot overemphasize how this kind of spectacle has undermined U.S. soft power and moral credibility in the world. The reverberations of this will be felt for decades to come. The whole system of Western democracy is being discredited by the extreme double standard of America’s Great Exception.
Jewish power in the West is being lit up like a Christmas tree. The nepotistic, tribalistic networks of Jewish power are being seen clearly by everyone, and they can’t be unseen. This growing realization is being piled onto the increasing malaise throughout the West, the ever-increasing gap between what “we the people” want—and what we get after every election. In the past few years more and more people have noticed that no matter who they vote for, their lives just keep getting worse. But now, more and more people are also noticing that no matter who they vote for, Jews stay in power.
Young people are seeing that the same Jews pushing mass non-White migration in the West in the name of tolerance and diversity, invoke the genocidal precedent of “Amalek” to justify killing the women and children of all their enemies. Repeatedly, Jews like Alan Derschowitz have cited the Allied war crimes in World War 2, such as the firebombing of Dresden and Hamburg or the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, as examples for why Israel is morally right to bomb civilians in Gaza—but all this does is draw focus to the moral illegitimacy of the Allies—and with it, of the entire postwar order. And as outrageous Jewish lies have been repeatedly debunked about atrocity stories on October 7th… more and more people are starting to wonder what other atrocities they’ve been lying about. …

Heather MacDonald, “The Ladies’ Hour”
The media is getting ever more feminized. With predictable results. I listen to NPR’s “All Things Considered” (a complete misnomer), and it’s usually two women hosts, at least one of whom is a POC, interviewing a woman who is knowledgeable about a particular topic (I guess there just aren’t any male experts), although sometimes a gay guy named Ari Shapiro co-hosts. As MacDonald points out, there’s never any concern with the costs that American citizens incur from this flood of poor people (who will be allowed to vote ASAP). And it goes without saying that there are huge long-term costs to the White population as they are being replaced by people who, if they don’t already hate Whites, will soon be taught that the way to get ahead in America is to hate White people.
You could basically write the same article about female politicians. I’m certainly not saying all women are like this, but far too many women, especially college-educated White women are. I guess I am getting to be something of a misogynist in my old age.
Heather MacDonald: The Ladies’ Hour
By now the conservative complaint about media bias, however justified, has grown stale. Last Tuesday’s vice presidential debate between J. D. Vance and Tim Walz, however, highlighted another aspect of the mainstream media bubble: its feminization.
This was not merely a matter of the two CBS moderators’ prim efforts to cut Vance off:
MARGARET BRENNAN: Thank you, senator. We have so much to get to. . . . Thank you, Senator, for describing the legal process. We have so much to get to. . . . Gentlemen, the audience can’t hear you because your mics are cut. We have so much we want to get to. Thank you [Senator] for explaining the legal process.
This feminization was not just a matter of the moderators’ self-righteous editorializing and one-sided fact-checking:
NORAH O’DONNELL: The overwhelming consensus among scientists is that the earth’s climate is warming at an unprecedented rate.
BRENNAN: And just to clarify for our viewers, Springfield, Ohio does have a large number of Haitian migrants who have legal status.
It was not just a question of their setting Walz up for exculpatory or self-promoting responses:
BRENNAN: Governor, do you care to respond to any of those specific allegations, including that the Vice President is, quote, “letting in fentanyl and using kids as drug mules, among other things.”
O’DONNELL: Governor Walz . . . former President Trump said in the last debate that you believe abortion, quote, in the ninth month is absolutely fine. Yes or no? Is that what you support? I’ll give you two minutes.
No, it was the choice and presentation of topics that most revealed the feminization of the elite world view. The moderators turned subjects that should have been landmines for the Biden–Harris record into indictments of Trump–Vance. This transformation was driven not just by contempt for the GOP ticket. It grew out of a reflexive focus on putative victims of conservative policies. More abstract questions of costs and benefits and less favored victims were all ignored.
The issue of immigration is a major handicap for the Democratic ticket. Even the mainstream press occasionally acknowledges the explosion of illegal crossings since 2021. That explosion was the predictable consequence of Biden’s evisceration of Trump’s border protections, above all the requirement that alleged asylum seekers remain in Mexico while making their asylum claims. The resulting flow of illegal aliens has inundated northern cities, usually exempt from, and indifferent to, border chaos. It has increased urban crime, burdened public services, and made a mockery of immigration law and national sovereignty. Trump and Vance had nothing to do with the ongoing illegal alien crisis.
But for the moderators, the problem was not that Biden’s border policies have inflicted the country with at least an additional 10 million illegal aliens, according to the House Committee on Homeland Security. (Ten million is only the number encountered by border agents; it does not include undetected crossers.) The problem for the moderators was how Trump may respond to that crisis—and, in particular, whether he would allegedly cause family separations by deporting parents whose children have obtained birthright citizenship.
This issue of “family separations” was a media obsession during the first Trump presidency and it would appear to be one again. (Of course, it is the deported parent who chooses to leave his child behind; nothing in Trump’s previous deportation policies required family separation.) The moderators’ first immigration question was:
BRENNAN: Senator Vance, your campaign is pledging to carry out the largest mass deportation plan in American history and to use the U.S. military to do so. Could you be more specific about exactly how this will work? For example, would you deport parents who have entered the U.S. illegally and separate them from any of their children who were born on U.S. soil?
The question of how to carry out mass deportations is not illegitimate. Trump failed to address the matter in his debate with Kamala Harris. Vance alluded to the most important part of the answer—self-deportation—in his necessarily condensed remarks. If workplace laws against hiring illegal aliens are actually enforced through programs like E- Verify, and welfare benefits shut off, a significant portion of illegals already here will self-deport.
How to deal with the illegals already here, however, is secondary to the question: how will you prevent more from coming in? The moderators never asked how a Harris–Walz administration would change the Biden–Harris policies that created the mess in the first place. Instead, they were obsessed with the alleged horrors of family separation. Brennan: “Senator, the question was, will you separate parents from their children, even if their kids are U.S. citizens? You have one minute.”
Walz got the broader version of the deportation issue. Brennan again: “Governor, what about our CBS News polling, which does show that a majority of Americans, more than 50%, support mass deportations?” It is not clear what exactly the moderators were getting at, but this was certainly not a hard-hitting question about the Biden–Harris policy failures. The CBS crew allowed Walz to get away with the claim that the recent border bill that Biden advocated and that Trump opposed was tough, even though it would have permitted thousands of illegal aliens a day to enter before authorizing law enforcement to close the border.
Childcare and paid family leave are not remotely within the federal government’s constitutional responsibilities. Nor are they the biggest problems facing the nation at the moment. But in a feminized paradigm (earlier expressed by the Obama administration’s “Life of Julia” cartoon), nothing lies outside the federal government’s purview when it comes to supplanting the private sector and the independent family.
When Brennan urged, “Let’s talk about families in America,” she meant “let’s talk about government programs.” Sure enough: “There is a childcare crisis in this country, and the United States is one of the very few developed countries in the world without a national paid leave program for new parents.”
There is a family crisis in America, but it is not the absence of federal paid leave. In 2022, 40 percent of all American children were born to single mothers. Black newborns faced a catastrophic 69 percent illegitimacy rate, while more than 53 percent of Hispanic children were born to unmarried females. Whites had a 27 percent illegitimacy rate; the rate among the white underclass is twice that. But a feminized worldview is not going to acknowledge family breakdown and the disappearance of fathers as crises.
Admittedly, solving family breakdown is also not a function of the federal government, even one open to more traditional understandings of civil society. Contrary to the dreams of policy wonks, no adjustments to the tax code can put the family back together again. But if the moderators want to “talk about families in America,” the primary issues should be: How do we restore the millennia-long understanding that children need their fathers as well as their mothers? And: How do we teach that traditional marriage is on average the best way to ensure that children are raised by both parents? … [Continue reading here.]
Justice Report: SHARP co-founder unmasked as Zionist Rabbi FBI consultant and IDF volunteer
SHARP co-founder unmasked as Zionist Rabbi FBI consultant and IDF volunteer
Valencia, California – An investigation has led to the unmasking of two LA-based Jewish members of the anti-White extremism movement, commonly referred to as “Antifa,” including a founding member of the “Skinheads Against Racial Prejudice (SHARP)” movement as a former IDF guerilla fighter and consultant for the FBI.
Thanks to publically available information, counter-extremism researchers with the Justice Report can confidently name 50-year-old Michael Benjamin Salonius of Crescent City, California, as well as his mother, 75-year-old Arlene Joyce Salonius-Sherrod, as having direct ties to SHARP and a group known as the “Santa Clarita Valley Antifascists (SCV Antifa),” a black bloc extremist cell known to dox and issue credible threats of violence to working-class people across southern California.
Salonius, an ordained Rabbi and former IDF volunteer—who also maintains a sizeable following on TikTok as a “Cottagecore” influencer—is, in reality, a founding member of the controversy-laded Skinheads Against Racial Prejudice movement, an international street gang and subdivision of the Punk music scene often embroiled in misanthropic violence, drug use, and other petty crimes since its inception in the 1980s.
His mother, Salonius-Sherrod, likewise holds an illustrious career in political violence, having participated in the anti-war and Black supremacist riots of the 1960s under the banner of militant communism. Explicitly referred to as an “extremist” by her son, her family’s history of leftist agitation would ultimately bar Michael from US military service and force him into the open arms of a special IDF brigade.
“My folks had a radically alternative lifestyle…My mom was a member and a part of the Chicago Seven and got involved with what we now call domestic terrorism,” professed Michael Salonius to a Santa Clarita synagogue in 2017. “(The US Military) has a whole file on my mom’s family.”
Newly unearthed video lectures depict a slightly younger Michael Salonius admitting to a Jewish audience that he participated in West Bank settler violence during his time in an orthodox extremist “Hesder brigade.” He would later return to the United States and serve as a mental health consultant and pocket Rabbi for American law enforcement agencies, including the FBI.

Conclusion of Ron Unz’s latest: “The Anniversary of October 7th”
Unz reviews Israel’s long record of targeted assassinations.
“The Anniversary of October 7thh”
…
Consider Anya Parampil, another young journalist who has spent many years focused on Palestinian issues. Married to Max Blumenthal, she works with him at the Grayzone, and in her many video appearances there and on Napolitano’s channel, I’ve never seen any sign of her support for implausible conspiratorial beliefs. Instead, she has always struck me as someone of very mainstream if strongly progressive views on public policy matters.
Yet in a remarkable half-hour interview last week, she explicitly described Israel as America’s “greatest enemy,” expressing outrage that her country seemed to have lost its political sovereignty to the agents of that murderous foreign state. She went on to suggest that the crucial turning point in our national subjugation had probably come with the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy, whose vigorous efforts to prevent Israel from acquiring nuclear weapons had been suddenly ended by his violent death. She also noted that his brother Robert had led the efforts to severely curtail the power of the Israel Lobby, and he too had soon died by an assassin’s bullet. I think that her very self-confident public statements on such extremely controversial matters may represent a bellwether, indicating that many of those same ideas are now rapidly but quietly circulating within important mainstream segments of the American population.
The JFK Assassination might easily rank as the single most famous incident of the twentieth century and it has been the subject of countless books, articles, and documentaries.
Those Americans who conclude that the Israeli Mossad played a central role in that killing, thereby successfully subverting our entire political system, will naturally consider the implications of that revelation. If a matter of such gigantic importance could have remained almost totally concealed for more than six decades, they may begin to grow very suspicious about the true nature of other major events as well.
The most obvious and important of these would be the 9/11 Attacks, which killed thousands of Americans. Pro-Israel elements within our national government immediately used these as an excuse to launch a series of wars that destroyed most of Israel’s leading regional rivals, wars that cost our country thousands of additional lives and many trillions of dollars, while killing or displacing millions of Muslim civilians.
As I’ve discussed at considerable length, Israel’s record of international terrorism, quite often of the false-flag variety, is just as unmatched as its record of political assassinations, with an Israeli Prime Minister even publicly boasting that he had been the founding father of terrorism across the entire world.
One of history’s largest terrorist attacks prior to 9/11 was the 1946 bombing of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem by Zionist militants dressed as Arabs, which killed 91 people and largely destroyed the structure. In the famous Lavon Affair of 1954, Israeli agents launched a wave of terrorist attacks against Western targets in Egypt, intending to have those blamed on anti-Western Arab groups. There are strong claims that in 1950 Israeli Mossad agents began a series of false-flag terrorist bombings against Jewish targets in Baghdad, successfully using those violent methods to help persuade Iraq’s thousand-year-old Jewish community to emigrate to the Jewish state. In 1967, Israel launched a deliberate air and sea attack against the U.S.S. Liberty, intending to leave no survivors, killing or wounding over 200 American servicemen before word of the attack reached our Sixth Fleet and the Israelis withdrew.
The enormous extent of pro-Israel influence in world political and media circles meant that none of these brutal attacks ever drew serious retaliation, and in nearly all cases, they were quickly thrown down the memory hole, so that today probably no more than one in a hundred Americans is even aware of them. Furthermore, most of these incidents came to light due to chance circumstances, so we may easily suspect that many other attacks of a similar nature have never become part of the historical record.
Once the circumstances of those 2001 terrorist attacks are carefully considered, the evidence that the Israeli Mossad once again played the central role seems extremely strong, even stronger than the case for Mossad’s role in the killing of the Kennedys several decades earlier. No other organization around the world possessed anything like the same set of skills and experience in carrying out such a massive operation, and the FBI quickly rounded up some 200 Mossad agents, many of whom had been found behaving in very suspicious ways in the immediate vicinity of the destruction, including five who were caught red-handed, gleefully celebrating the successful attack on the WTC towers.
Although their findings have been almost totally ignored for more than two decades by our fervently pro-Israel mainstream media, numerous diligent 9/11 researchers have amassed an enormous quantity of compelling evidence implicating Israel and its domestic American collaborators in that terrorist attack against our country. Much of that evidence has been summarized in a number of our major articles:

9/11 represented the greatest terrorist attack in the history of the world and it was the worst hostile blow our nation has ever endured. As the true facts of what actually happened on that fateful day quietly circulate in the wake of Israel’s very high-profile assaults on other Middle Eastern countries, I think that the existential risks that country faces may become far greater than anything associated with retaliatory strikes from Iranian ballistic or hypersonic missiles.
