Introduction by ex-Jew Gilad Atzmon:
The following is today’s Jewish Chronicle article. It was written in a desperate attempt to portray me as an‘antisemite,’ but I actually approve the text and the references to my work.
For the first time in two decades, the rabid Zionist outlet has managed to quote me accurately. Not once before did anyone within the Hasbara league attempt to engage with my recent book Being in Time – a Post Political Manifesto. In the book I argue that the dystopia in which we live is the direct outcome of the victory of Jerusalem over Athens. While Athens is the city of reason and philosophy, Jerusalem is the capitol of revelation, obedience and adherence to mitzvoth (regulations). I suggest in Being in Time that for Western civilisation to survive, Athens and its values must be reinstated!

It is rather obvious that the JC refrained from sharing the link to my Reading talk with its readers. I guess that they were tormented by the thought that more Jews may find my ideas appealing and flip, as I myself did over a decade ago.
