gaza, israel, palestine, Politics, zionism


Por Sir Afilonius Rex y Lila de Alba, con la colaboración especial de Martyn Rhisiart Jones

Hablemos con franqueza, como exige la historia y obliga la conciencia. En el ocaso del imperio, cuando Gran Bretaña aún dominaba los mares y gozaba del respeto de las naciones, el Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores comprendió una verdad que las potencias posteriores han ignorado con graves consecuencias: Oriente Medio no puede doblegarse a la voluntad extranjera mediante la fuerza o el favoritismo. La estabilidad no residía en la conquista ni en la partición impuesta desde lejos, sino en alianzas respetuosas con los líderes árabes, en el reconocimiento de su soberanía, su dignidad y su legítimo derecho a la tierra que habían cultivado durante siglos. La colonización de Palestina por oleadas de colonos judíos europeos, el sueño de un Estado judío soberano forjado contra la voluntad árabe, nunca fue el camino de Gran Bretaña. Se consideró, con razón, una receta para la enemistad perpetua.

The Enduring Bond Between Wales and Zionism – and Its Bitter Unravelling

Sir Afilonius Rex in Tel Aviv. Monday 24th February 2026.

In the misty valleys of Wales, where chapel bells once echoed with the thunder of Old Testament prophets, a profound affinity for Judaism and Zionism took root. This connection, woven from scripture, sympathy, and the shared fire of small nations, has long pulsed through Welsh history. It speaks in lyrical cadences, alliterative and incantatory, evoking green hills and golden psalms By that rolled like the sea in miners’ lungs. Here, the Bible burned brighter than coal seams; children learned of Jerusalem before their own rivers, with Jordan flowing through hymns and Zion a living heartbeat.

STRAIGHT TALK: The Promised Banality of Evil – Revisited

Sir Afilonius Rex

Tel Aviv, 16th February 2026

The relations between Wales, Judaism, and Zionism weave a tale as old as the hills. It is as tangled as the roots beneath them. These are threads of scripture, sympathy, small nations’ stubborn fire, and biblical thunder from the valleys. This comes to us in the voices of the past; lyrical, rhythmic, overflowing with vivid, swirling imagery. Alliteration and a bardic, almost incantatory prose describe the green and golden hills of Wales. The chapels rang with the thunder of prophets. The psalms rolled like the sea in the lungs of the miners. There, the Old Testament burned brighter than the coal seams! On those Nonconformist mornings, the children learned about Jerusalem. They learned their names even before their own rivers. Jordan flowed through the hymns. Zion was no distant dream but a living pulse in the blood.

How easily people lose their moral compass

Martyn Rhisiart Jones

San Martiño de Bandoxa, Friday 9th January 2026

On Friday, the 9th of January 2026, Captain (Israeli Navy, Reserves) Doctor Azi Dagan posted a short video on the LinkedIn group IOSI: Counter-Terrorism and Geopolitical Security, accompanied by the text: The Iranian regime is slaughtering the protesters. To which I replied: It’s truly terrible, a foul crime. But what did you have to say about the slaughter of more than 20,000 innocent children? The reply to that was: We would say that it’s Hamas propaganda!

Toledo, 21st December 2025

David Jacobs wrote the following comment on X:

“Many on this platform still believe that they can tease Zionism away from Judaism. That’s not possible. It’s time for me to repost my previous explanation. And yes, if you use ‘Zionist’ as a slur, or rage against Zionists, you are indeed a Jew hater.”

This is a considered and measured response to that tweet and associated tweets.

IT’S POLITICS: Understanding Hasbara: Israel’s Narrative Control Tactics

Sir Afilonius Rex

Madrid, 18th December 2025

What is Hasbara?

Hasbara, a Hebrew term meaning “explanation,” refers to Israel’s public diplomacy and propaganda efforts. These efforts aim at shaping international opinion in favour of its policies. This is particularly true regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It transcends mere PR. It functions as a strategic tool to control narratives, delegitimise critics, and portray Israel as a perpetual victim. It justifies its actions, including occupation and military operations. Government entities like the former Ministry of Strategic Affairs coordinate hasbara. It involves state funding. Volunteer networks and partnerships disseminate pro-Israel messages globally.

التفاوض من أجل السلام في عالم عنيف

التفاوض على السلام في عالم يسوده العنف

مارتن ريسارت جونز

لا كورونيا، غاليسيا. 9 ديسمبر 2025

تنبيه هام: لم تتم مراجعة هذه الترجمة من قبل متحدث متقن للغة العربية.

لا ينتهي الصراع العنيف بالقوة وحدها. يعلمنا التاريخ أن السبيل الوحيد للخروج من الحرب والوحشية والمعاناة هو التفاوض. والتفاوض، في الواقع، يتطلب دائمًا تقديم تنازلات.

مع ذلك، تُوصم الدعوات إلى الحوار اليوم في كثير من الأحيان بالضعف، أو ما هو أسوأ، بالانحياز إلى الإرهابيين. هذه كذبة خطيرة. إن الدعوة إلى السلام ليست تأييدًا للعنف، بل هي تأكيد على قيمة الحياة، واعتراف بكرامة المجتمعات وبقائها.

Мирные переговоры в мире насилия

Мартин Рисиарт Джонс

Ла-Корунья, Галисия. 9 декабря 2025 г.

Насильственный конфликт не заканчивается одной лишь силой. История учит нас, что единственный выход из войны, жестокости и страданий — это переговоры. А переговоры в реальном мире всегда требуют компромисса.

Однако сегодня призывы к диалогу слишком часто клеймят как слабость или, что еще хуже, как «поддержку террористов». Это опасная ложь. Выступая за мир, мы не одобряем насилие. Мы настаиваем на ценности жизни. Мы признаем достоинство общин и выживание общества.

“I was a fool, and what I’ve seen has made me two fools.”

Rafael Alberti, Spanish poet

My dear brothers and sisters in humanity. Fellow seekers of justice. To all who yearn for a world of true peace, let us gather our hearts and voices as one. We are bound by a spirit of reconciliation beyond borders and creeds. We are inspired by the unyielding pursuit of dignity for every soul. We must examine the depths of our times and raise our cry against wrongdoing. It is crucial to confront the shadows of wrongdoing. We must confront the criminality and impunity that darken our shared world. We must stand resolute against injustice, wherever it rears its head, and proclaim with unwavering conviction: Enough is enough.
