The first of the US Constitution’s 10 amendments, known as the “Bill of Rights”, reads as follows:
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting free worship; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or abridging the right of the people peaceably to assemble and petition the government for a redress of grievances.”
This is now being supplemented in the House of Representatives with a law called “HR 6090”:
“Any freedom of speech and freedom of the press can be restricted in the US if the goal is to protect Israel!”
This is not a joke: something that has not been done in the 246 years since it was approved and enacted is being done, and for the first time in the US, a bill restricting freedom of expression is being passed. The bill will now go to the Senate, where it will probably pass, Biden will sign it and it will go into effect. The only hope of civilized Americans is that the Supreme Court will overturn this law, finding it contrary to the clear provision of the Constitution. However, due to the majority of pseudo-conservative members that have filled the court during the Trump era, the annulment request may be rejected.
“HR 6090” bans any publication that criticizes and condemns Israel as “anti-Semitism”. The law bans “anti-Semitism”, not anti-Zionism; according to the law, anti-Semitism includes any behavior, expression, publication or decision, real or rhetorical, that causes anger and hatred against Jews in general, their institutions and organizations, or individuals’ religious beliefs, property and possessions.
Even Time magazine scoffed at such a broad description, writing that “even the Bible could be banned for the phrase ‘the Jews killed Jesus’ in eight places.”
20-30 years ago, it would have been impossible to even think that such a law could be passed in the United States. The defenders of this article of the constitution used to say that it was “impossible to even prohibit shouting ‘Fire!’ in a theater or movie theater when there is no fire.”
What has changed in this time? Even then, the primary source of income for politicians in the US was still Jewish capital. Even then, Jewish organizations controlled politicians, the two political parties, publications and even university boards of trustees.
What has changed is Israel itself. A handful of Zionists, liberals and conservatives alike, have invaded the entire Israeli culture, literature, military, security concept; what the Jewish political philosopher Hannah Arendt rejected in 1947 the UN Plan for the Partition of Palestine because she feared it would happen: The Zionists gave up on sharing Palestine with the Muslims.
This mentality took Hamas’ intelligence failure and defense fiasco in the October 7 raid as an opportunity to completely destroy Palestine. When the whole world opposed it, with its universities, trade unions, newspapers and televisions, the Genocide trial at the International Criminal Court, Zionism had no choice but to ban all criticism and condemnation of Israel and the Jews.
How did this law pass so easily in the US House of Representatives? Because pro-Israel Jewish organizations keep a tally of every congressman and senator in the US, not only how they vote, but how many times they make pro-Israel speeches on the floor, the duration of the speech, or whether they applaud such speeches, whether the applause is strong or not… It is unbelievable, but it is all true.
In other words, there is no independent, sovereign, democratic entity called the United States; there is a country in the hands of genocidal Zionism that has taken over Israel. And the parliament of that country is more likely to pass HR 6090.
