Do you think anti-Israel protests on University campuses shows antisemitism in academia? Well, to be honest it doesn’t. All the anti-Semites do of course join in, but many protestors are Jewish or Jew-ish. However there is a deep cancer in academia dating back to the Christian establishments origin control of most institutions. There is a clear agenda to promote the post-Christian ‘white-man’s world view’. This is of course in every area and now political rectitude and today’s woke climate are not so much removing it as replacing it with another agenda.
The archaeological and academic establishment has been working for two centuries ceaselessly to steal your history. They just could not allow the Jewish conspiracy to go unchallenged. After all, the experts – gentile and Jewish – were the successors to two millennia of Christian lies about you. The Jews were not to be allowed to prove that their narrative was correct. The fact is that they really were in Israel long ago and they practiced their non-political religion faithfully.
Historical DNA of the Palestinians and Jews.
Now it is certainly true that the DNA of half of today’s Palestinians dates back to their gradual occupation of the emptied Land as far back as the Roman conquest. Note the tiny fact that this was after – after – the noble Christian Romans cleared out the Jewish enemies of the Church and infidels occupying the land. The Jews were slaughtered or dragged to Rome and perfectly reasonably the empty land was occupied by others.
However long term, well before all this – back 4000 years, the picture is basically clearly a draw between the Palestinians and the Jews. They may not like it – but from the time of the Biblical half-brothers Isaac and Ishmael – Abraham’s two children – Jews and Palestinians really are DNA cousins. Both of their DNA contains material from one another and the ancient Levant. Both of them could have ordered a coffee in the 3000 BCE Jerusalem Hilton Hotel or its ancestor.
The Present Conflict
The present conflict centres on whether a people who were forced off their land two millennia ago has any claim to re-occupy it. Merely to move in individually as citizens seems reasonable. Actually to rule the country or displace occupants who were there for up a similar length of time is another thing. It is this that has of course created the present turmoil. The Zionists state correctly that they actually ruled the country for about 1000 years – from 3000 to 2000 years ago. The Palestinians correctly state that that is no justification for infringing on the activities of the other descendants of the Land. The Zionists cite the millions of diasporic Jews killed over the millennia. The Palestinians ask why they should suffer because of others’ inhumanity. And so the argument rolls on. There is no solution because both sides will always have a counter argument.
Consequences of Secular Zionism
One thing is clear whichever side you are on. Nobody in 1948 realized that the end of secular Jewish existence was practically guaranteed by Zionism. The creation of a secular state has been a major reason why there will be scarcely any secular Jews within two or three generations. Had our enemies realized this, they certainly would have done everything possible to promote the secular state.
Indeed, perhaps the more intelligent English and French diplomats realized that a failed state of Israel, with thousands killed by warfare, would be the best outcome. But nobody foresaw the combined effects of birth control, hedonism and selfishness which will have killed off most secular Jews by 2075. Remember most over 30 years old today will be resting eternally. They will not be replaced. By then there will be only one quarter remaining of today’s world secular white population – scattered in enclaves around the globe. About 250 million. That means 1 million secular Israelis!! Perhaps by then those who could, will have emigrated to a more tolerant non-Muslim secular society. Russia, Poland or perhaps the USA.
The Biggest Fear of Secular Zionism
The Land is to be passively handed back to the orthodox Jews and the Palestinians by its secular creators. And do not be fooled. Israel boasts one of the highest child per family figures in the First World. This is 3 per family. But this is completely dishonest and misleading. The figure is accurate for the entire Israeli population including all the religious Jews and religious Muslims. They have indeed between 5 and 8 children per family. But the secular Jews are committing ethnic suicide like their other secular white brothers around the world. Probably 1 child for 4 adults for the next generation and then even less. By mid-century we will see the end of secular Zionism leverage in the Israeli elections. Middle-aged, childless, selfish and with no future. Yet, the secular Zionists screamed, ‘The future is ours!!’ Pure tragedy.
The population of Muslims and orthodox Jews will completely swamp the original pioneers who courageously drained the Hula swamps. Yes, we have mentioned the powerful and growing population of orthodox Zionists in the form of the Mizrachi and Datie Leumi. But they have to recognise that they are today only 9% of the population. By 2075 they will be still only 12% at the most. They have about 4 children compared to the ultra-orthodox 8. All orthodox groups together will amount to about 40% and the Muslims about 25%. So we will probably have a ‘Semitic Republic’ – divided between orthodox Jews, Arabs and a few secular Jews in cantons – like Switzerland. There is no other solution – except death.
The Academic Agenda Against Zionism
Nonetheless, unaware of these remarkable facts and that they need not really have bothered, the original academics always had a clear agenda. This was to prove that the true inheritors of the Holy Land were really not short, dark people wearing sun glasses with hooked noses and carrying Uzis. The archaeologists insisted that the Jews had no unique claim to the land stupidly given to them by the UN. But this anti-Zionist campaign collapsed as more and more irrefutable evidence was dug up – by its promoters!! It is happening right now with some hilarious consequences. Yet another chapter of this unfolding story of recent discoveries proving us to be right came to light quite recently – in 2010.
As we know, the secular myth is that King David is a myth and simply did not exist, merely a figure of the warped Jewish imagination. Read the learned and unflinching view of academia: ‘The existence of the Bible’s ‘United Monarchy’ during the 10th century BCE is …impossible’. This denial was finally blown to smithereens – ironically – by Israeli artillery. Yet, there had been earlier warnings of this outrage. Rather inadvisably, it was the secular Israelis who originally assassinated poor King David. With their usual bashful lack of confidence, the Israeli establishment put its entire weight behind some truly brilliant experts. Mega-politically correct, they stated that King David and Solomon and all preceding Biblical figures were a conglomerate of fables and myths.
Destroying their own Zionist Claim to the Land
They could prove this by various means which seemed rather short on fact and wobbly on logic. The main argument seemed to be an absence of evidence. I think, as often, they missed the point. As we all know, an absence of evidence proves one thing only – an absence of evidence, but not evidence of an absence. However, they were fighting against their evil, fundamentalist ex-co-religionist madmen, so obviously they were right. Only too late, with a sickening crunch, did they realize what they had done. They had gutted their entire new theology of Zionism and indeed their very raison d’etre. Secular Zionists had always insisted that their claim to the Land was not religious. That’s because they turned away from their religion.
Their claim was based entirely upon the 3000 years of history that linked Jews to the Holy Land. Now, in one deft move they had sliced off the first millennia of that history. They had no history before 500 BCE or so. Their ancient Zion was a mythical Zion. They trumpeted, in a spirit of self-denigrating triumphalism, that their forebears had not entered an almost empty land. They had not rid it of nasty pagans. And had not built a wonderful commonwealth of which Marx and Herzl and Mao Zi Tung could be proud. That had been the old Zionist socialist claim. But now, not only no Abraham, no Isaac, no Jacob; no Exodus; no Joshua – but indeed no real history until the return from Babylon in 370 BCE – the Israelis claimed there was no ancient organized ‘State’.
Zionist Claims Saved by Archaeology?
Their new sad, limp claim to the Land was reduced to citing a few miscreants somehow showing up very late in the game, staggering around, beating up gentle Palestinians, leaving a few Stars of David carved in stone and then being carted off to Rome. They had far less claim to the Land than the Norwegians (Viking conquerors) or Italians (Roman conquerors) have to Britain. Or, the Europeans had to the USA, India, Africa or Australasia …. Oops! The Palestinians, an extremely clever and adaptable nation, were not slow to notice this. However, the secular Zionists were undeservedly saved by the truth. Unusual for archaeologists.
Don’t Tel Dan
For, years ago, there was been an embarrassing, hushed-up resurrection in the Holy Land. (No, not that one.) This was in 1993. King David, consigned so mockingly to mythology, suddenly had arisen. Ever inventive, the secular Israelis had managed to keep this under wraps for some time.
A lump of stone gave evidence. This may merely be a triangular piece of basalt, smashed from a victory stele. But it mentions quite clearly the ‘House of David’; ‘the King of Israel’ and the details of a victory over said nation. Now this obviously proves that there was someone called ‘David’ important enough to have a dynasty and to be a king of ‘Israel’ and that the writers of the stele thought that worth hacking onto a stone.
Or at least, it proves this to an objective observer. However, it contradicted the official line and the system that was the basis of the secular experts’ dating. So obvious was the reference and so thoroughly did it destroy centuries of ridicule of the Talmudic ‘version’ that there was only one solution – it was instantly hushed up and reported as mutely as feasible. The name of the person who found it was Gila Cook. Gila actually means ‘revealed’ or the ‘joy’ resulting from this and is a very beautiful Hebrew name. Sadly, Gila was not really allowed to enjoy her discovery or her quick-wittedness or remarkable honesty.
Sticking to the Official Line
Thus, the myth that King David was a myth was still the official line. If that ‘insignificant’ 1993 Tel Dan stele showed anything, it was dismissed as merely referring to some insignificant tribal chief by chance called David or someone called Beloved by his enemy or the enemy’s least favourite Uncle or, most likely, a Welsh Fairy King Dafydd. But the Jews’ King David? Obviously not. What an idea! The writer of the stele was hallucinating because it absolutely certain that there was neither a King David as per the Torah nor a massive organised civilisation at that time. So the official line that King David was a fabric of a muddled ethnic imagination was still peddled as tenable. And yes, even though David’s non-existence struck at the heart of Zionism. Israelis can be noble – for the sake of political rectitude.
The Resurrection After 17 Years
Then the earth shifted. The secret came out. Catastrophe struck. The find of July 20th 1993 had been silenced. But 17 short years later, in January 2010 we learnt of a terrible fundamentalist religious plot which has now, as you read this with trembling lips, forced the recognition of that 1993 Tel Dan discovery – and the true resurrection of an organized Jewish civilization under the judges and kings such as King David. In the 1960s Kathleen Kenyon, had dug up evidence of a large royal building in Jerusalem and to this was added Eilat Mazar’s uncovering of a ‘large stone structure’ which she thought was King David’s ‘palace’. Because the establishment dated David to 1020 BCE, she perfectly reasonably dated the finds to about that date, based upon secondary evidence and on the presumption that Ussher was correct.
Finkelstein’s Bravery
The plot was considerably thickened when Israel Finkelstein, even though a secular Israeli archaeologist, simply could not make sense of the establishment dating information. These ruins could not be circa 1020 BCE. He bravely broke with the establishment. Using new carbon dating, he has started a revivalist movement which dates these ruins of a palace to mid- to late-9th century BCE. The problem is that, unless you believed the Talmud’s dateline, these then cannot be David’s buildings because he lived, according to the establishment, in the 11th century – 168 years earlier. They could not even have been his old age retreat. That we date David precisely at this time, in 860 BCE, is ignored as yet another fundamentalist plot.
So who built them? Another separate problem was created by discoveries of similar remains at three well-established sites. The Torah talks of the three great cities Megiddo, Chatzur and Gezer built by Solomon. The celebrated Israeli archaeologist, Yigael Yadin (1917 – 1984), found similar 6-chambered gates at each city’s entrance and thus Solomon seems to have built all of them in a similar pattern. Because the Torah states that he built them, originally these ruins and their pottery were, in like manner, dated to Solomon’s secular dating – 1000 BCE. However, again, Finkelstein courageously more and more strongly challenged the presumption that the ruins were this early, and adduced much new and convincing scientific evidence.
The Uncompromising Professor
They began to seem to belong to a later period – significantly 100 to 200 years later. Further, more evidence showed that in around 1000 BCE there were apparently simply too few people living in the areas from where David and Solomon would have had to raise thousands of military recruits, artisans and laborers. Then, the plot did not merely thicken, it practically solidified. New carbon dating seemed to prove that Yadin’s dating to the late 10th century was indeed wrong. Finkelstein was vindicated as these improved dating techniques pointed to the 9th century. The experts were stumped by the half-truths they had discovered. Obviously, nobody asked those lunatic ultra-orthodox dudes.
According to secular dating both the Jerusalem and three city finds presented the same conundrum. Solomon should have built the gates at the three great towns, but now they were 9th century. He was long deceased by then. The great royal palace should have been built by David but sadly, as mentioned, according to secular dating, David was also long dead. Talmudic dating made perfect sense of all this, because both were very much alive according to it at the correct times. The experts all would have rather flung themselves into a fiery furnace rather than even consider that. However to identify the monarch, floating around in that century, who built enormous citadels and palaces was not easy.
It Must Be The Other David
Characters from Star Trek, Star Wars, Yogi Bear and many more were nominated. But, Professor Finkelstein is a scrupulous and honest academic. Perfectly reasonably he accepts the secular dates for David and therefore is faced with a dichotomy created by his own research. Even more carbon dating supported his recent dating of between 900 and 835 BCE. To answer this he suggests that the builder was obviously a later king whom the secular dating places in the 9th century. Now, he must have immediately seen the problem. Regardless of the historical feasibility, David had died about 150 years earlier, according to the secular dating, and he was not there to do the building, so it had to be a king whom the secular dating places in that era.
Making Way For Omri
But Finkelstein was left with a puny candidate – Omri – an impoverished and embattled general who was king for only a few years. It seemed that nonetheless Omri and his son Ahab must have built the palaces and Megiddo, Chazar and Gezer and the similar structures in Samaria. Ahab is indeed referred to as a great military leader by his enemies. But he scarcely had the time or wealth to build lavish and huge palatial structures. But the archaeologists were forced nobly to battle to fit their discoveries into a timeline invented by Ussher, who will shortly provide us with much merriment.
It is however obvious that in their embattled and unsettled reigns neither Omri nor Ahab had the opportunity to build the great cities now being excavated. Omri ruled for 12 short and violent years, half of which were spent in subduing his opponents at home. The next six years just about allowed him to build his stronghold in Samaria. His son Ahab ruled for 22 years, even more war-torn, and was pre-occupied throughout with constant invasions by the aggressive war-mongering nations surrounding him.
He had to fight for every inch of his kingdom every year of his reign – and of course had the wife to end all wives – Jezebel. Actually, you could feel sorry for the poor devil. The Kurkh steles of Ashurnasirpal II and his son Shalmaneser III mention Ahab’s sending 2000 chariots and 10,000 men against them. These are huge numbers, even if exaggerated. Shalmaneser’s Black Obelisk mentions Omri’s son, Jehu, paying tribute to him for Ahab and his allies had been thoroughly routed and heavy penalties were extracted. The tattered House of Omri were impoverished warlords for most of their reigns.
Coming to The Only Logical Conclusion
Neither king could have afforded to raise and maintain both a vast army of horsemen and infantry and embark on an ambitious and eye-wateringly expensive architectural extravaganzas at several sites. And note that David and especially Solomon however had both wealth and peace.
The methods of misdating, discussed elsewhere, apply of course to Shalmaneser III and his lads. When Ussher’s darkness is lifted it is found they also accord with our timeline perfectly.
There is no need to steel ourselves against the presumed dates of their steles. Our position was fully justified by Peter James – who originally studied Ancient History and Archaeology at the University of Birmingham and pursued postgraduate research in the Department of Egyptology at University College London. He and his colleagues were extremely rare in being highly qualified and scrupulously honest academics. They smelt a rat decades ago and thereby sacrificed recognition by the establishment. But remember they had no inkling of our Talmudic dating.
It’s The Dating, Stupid!
They simply knew that something was wrong. By re-dating the beginning of the Iron Age in Palestine from the early 12th century BCE to the late 10th, a completely new interpretation of the archaeology of Israel can be offered: One which is in perfect harmony with the biblical record! Peter James was crucified by the secular establishment – as it were. They used rusty nails of ignorance and prejudice. I am not sure that his reputation even today is that which it should be. He is still seen by some as a ‘new chronologist’ by some rather than a brilliant and honest academic.
I scarcely need to repeat that Finkelstein’s new dates accord exactly. The one with the Talmudic dates for David – 868 BCE – and Solomon – 836 BCE. According to the lunatic ultra-orthodox fanatics these ruins are obviously from David and Solomon and this fits the dating. So the Torah is correct and they built that which it says they built, when it says they built it. But, archaeological hearing is rather selective. One must never believe the Talmudic Jews. So, the secular myths remain generally believed – if rather tattered.
Khirbet Qeiyafa: The Writing Is Enough!
Now back to the original script – 𐤀𐤁𐤂- Ivri. Absolutely against the rules, in 2010 the leaders of the Israeli archaeological community had the brazen, utter lack of political rectitude to decipher an inscription on an ostracon found outside Jerusalem at Khirbet Qeiyafa. There had been rumblings emerging from this site – but they were politely ignored. However, this ostracon was earth-shattering. It was old. Very old. It finally destroyed all previous presumptions and prejudices – because it was in Hebrew – again centuries before Hebrew had originally been allowed to exist and it is dated as early as 1100 BCE.
It could not be ignored – even by the diehards. There had been some hope that this entire dating problem. And the new evidence and the ‘Elah Valley Fortress’ [Khirbet Qeiyafa] site might just all be ignored and allowed to disappear for another three millennia. But you know how nosey and persistent Jews are – even nice, normal secular Israelis. They could not resist excavating. And, oh boy, did they dig up a hornets’ nest. An ancient ruin dismissed as a hill village turned out to be a mighty fortress. Which some claim to be the site of King David’s palace.
A City That Should Not Have Existed
I fail to understand how a king whom you insist does not exist could have built a palace after you claim he had died – but then I am not an archaeologist. In any event here was evidence of a large, well-organized society in the Judean Hills, twenty miles west of Jerusalem, at a time when, according to all the experts and all the books and all the TV documentaries, there simply were nothing but a few goat herders wandering about (- oh, and some goats). Incredibly, the Israel Antiquities Authority actually stated the following piece of sheer heresy and diabolical treasonous evil: ‘The excavations at Khirbat Qeiyafa clearly reveal an urban society that existed in Judah already in the late eleventh century BCE.
It can no longer be argued that the Kingdom of Judah developed only in the late eighth century BCE or at some other later date.’ In other words, those idiotic Talmudic Jews’ insistence that the 11th century was an organized period under steady governance by the Judges was perfectly accurate. And this six inch square bit of potsherd – the ostracon – really was the bull in the pottery shop. All the glittering theories about ancient Hebrew’s age were smashed. Professor Gershon Galil of Haifa University hit the news media with this and presented his own interpretation of this ostracon, caught the headlines internationally and was widely published.
Exposing The Establishment Academia
The find was also deciphered by renowned expert Dr Chaggai Misgav in co-ordination with the site’s excavation directors, Professor Yosef Garfinkel and Mr Saar Ganor of the Hebrew University team. They and Galil have shown it to be a Hebrew language inscription – yes, of course, as we always have said. This was not merely a slap in the face for the establishment – it was a fatal Shaolin kungfu spinning hook kick!
Whilst they had deigned to accept that a proto-‘Hebrew’ script preceded today’s script, they insisted that as early as this there was no Hebrew language at all. Everyone in the region used forms of Phoenician or other tongues. But now, they were snookered. A few grubby miners’ scratchings in Hebrew in an Egyptian turquoise mine or the Gezer alphabet calendar could be explained away but Khirbet Qeifaya proved the existence of a society and its language.
Our detractors had established that we had written Hebrew well before we are meant to have had a spoken Hebrew. Duh! A glance at the Talmud would have saved millions spent on all these archaeologists’ equipment, bus fares and sandwiches.
A Scribe Needs A Well-Functioning Economy
At Khirbet Qeiyafa, there had to be scribes and quills and papyrus and parchment and a kiln making pottery – an entire infrastructure supporting those who wrote the ostracon. How did the scribe live? Who created an entire civilization around him, paying him to write and buy a falafel? Who made the pita bread? From whom did he buy his Pepsi? What about his NIKE trainers, smartphone, plasma TV, driverless camel? A few Bedouins? Israeli tank corps? An archaeologists’ base camp?
If we had Hebrew language Ivri texts in 10th century BCE, we must certainly have had an organized Jewish culture under the Judges and later the Kings. This is very important to the provenance of the piles of rubble argued over by Finkelstein and his colleagues. It is also very important to your journey back through your personal history. That is not a trifling detail. That just proves that you come from a line going back 3000 years, who used Hebrew from the first and it was in that precise language and script that the Talmud described. It was right, they were wrong. Ask yourself again, perhaps ‘they’ have been wrong about many other ‘certainties’ that have denied you your birthright
Back to The Dig:
Now why are the dusty ruins of non-King David, non-King Solomon and non-Judges relevant to our quest? Well, let us go back to the non-existent early Jewish settlements, the non-existent writing and ruins, the non-existent judges and non-existent kings. In Khirbet Qeiyafa we had objective, non-religious – just secular Israeli – proof of an undeniably powerful citadel near to Jerusalem. This paralleled the discoveries of an advanced, well organized state by Kenyon and Mazar when they came across other ruins of this very period. The implications of their work had been fuzzed and treated with some distain.
Until this find, the possibility of such a centralized and complex political infrastructure had been laughed at. This was the basis of denying the early Hebrew Judges and Kings. Now the 2010 Khirbet Qeiyafa find’s disclosures rendered the 1993 Tel Dan find and its ‘House of David’ ‘the King of Israel’ – impossible to cover up any longer. All earlier indications had to be openly admitted. It looked as if it is not only true – but publicly undeniable: two very, very different things. Thus, in sullen, glowering hate, the archaeologists again had to admit they had dug up another mine field at Khirbet Qeifaya.
Blowing Up Establishment Roofs
This has blown three establishment roofs off. First – people were writing three millennia ago in Khirbet Qeiyafa – part of the Judean hills – a provincial center outside Jerusalem. This is well before the first kings and proves that their predecessors, the Judges, ran a tight ship. As we have said, this is irrefutable evidence of a society that must have had every detail of infrastructure, culture and organization to support a literary class. It is reasonable to allow for an advanced civilized culture existing in a reasonably peaceful and safe environment.
That means an organized country far earlier than accepted – except by the Talmudic Jews. Dare one whisper that perhaps the Talmud might be correct about other things? Secondly – there was a well-established Hebrew language at this date. Again, far earlier than had been admitted. The very idea of a separate Hebrew language so early had been a matter of hilarity. Dare one whisper that perhaps the Talmud might be correct about other things?
Thirdly – its characters were Ivri script – used then – as discussed at length in the Talmud. The Talmud is perfectly correct. Dare one whisper that perhaps the Talmud might be correct about other things? But still, there was complete skepticism. No one questions accepted scientific orthodoxy. Do this and your career is over. You stop being published and lose your funding. Yet we always knew that there was such a society because it was precisely this that the Judges had set up, organized and controlled.
Honest Judges
From 1244 to 877 BCE we had no need for a king. The tribes acted as a federation joining together when necessary. The Judges kept watch over the nation as it went about its business. The Jews were devoted to their religion and this was the entire, shared culture of the Land. Some judges were military leaders, others utterly spiritual but these four centuries were marked, for many unbroken periods, by a Torah life for the common people. This was punctuated by the constant violent attacks from their neighbours covered by the Scriptures, but the ordinary Jews lived in their villages and settlements with a level of self-control and order that remained undisturbed. This was until the destructive results of monarchy and power politics finally destroyed their society. And this picture is supported by the finds.
Our description of the Judges’ era was ridiculed until now – because it was drawn from those fictional and annoying texts – the Torah and Talmud. Kenyon’s 1960s discoveries and Finkelstein’s carbon dating raise impossible spectres of the great cities being built by nobodies. Those little green men again with their little green bagels? Remember the official dating system stops them being David and Solomon. It is only those inaccurate Talmudic Jews’ timeline that puts David bang in the middle of those discoveries’ period. But you must not probe into these secular/Christian dates. If you do ……you find several large cans of worms. And one particularly fat and loathsome worm … You will met him shortly.
