Capitalism Continues Marching Forward. 3 14 2026
It seems strange Israel would accept the help of the capitalist Americans in Gaza and Iran. It would be the same argument that there are more than one form of capitalism; German or American.
We experienced this in the second world war, where both the Americans and the Germans were involved in production for a greater amount of surplus value, the unpaid selection of the workday. All the capitalists companies, for example Bayer IG Farbin, Adidas, Daimler Benz, all built Hitler’s war machine. It was capitalism versus socialism, the Germans were for whom the bell tolled.
After the loss of the Germans the American bourgeoisie proceeded to try to rehabilitate capitalism there. It looked a lot like Hitlers Germany; they didn’t even change the companies names that financed and produced the commodities Hitler used to attack Russia. The structure of the companies stayed capitalist, as opposed to the eastern section of Germany that tried to reject wage labor, and live without production for surplus value.
In time America’s capitalist machine would remove socialism from most of Europe. The limited democracy politically in America would be overlooked; even after two Republican presidents in less than 20 years appointed without a popular majority. First it was George II, then Donald Trump in his first appointment. Combine that with a Senate with two votes per province or state, where Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennessee have the same votes as New York, Illinois , and California, I think you can see where this is going. Clearly it is the large landowners who control the Senate, in our example Chicago, LA and New York have to contend with the reactionary landowners who outnumber them in the Senate.
And this is what was fought for that replaced socialism in Eastern Europe. And it is still moving forward, now Israel is ensnared by it, with simple promises of advanced weapons and territorial expansion.
Israel would be best to remember it was Joseph Stalin who found and liberated Auschwitz. The quid pro quo of removing the Jews at the same time as the communists may have failed, but 6 million Jews lost their lives in genocide by the capitalist Germans.
The outcome of that war would have been the same with or without the Americans, the endless concessions to the remnants of Hitler’s war machine proved that. The genocide came to an end in east and west Germany, but capitalism, what Hitler built his empire with, is still wth us. Thus we see Israel, an experiment with a Jewish state, taking their chances supporting capitalism.
We have learned to live with Don, his strange ideas about women, his prosecution of his liberal political enemies, his suggestions that socialists are stupid lunatics because they don’t support his capitalism. We have to live with this, but Israel has volunteered to be part of this.
Are we to really to believe Trump is going to support Stalin? Find an example of that coming from his mouth. In that respect he is reactionary, and little different from the Germans.
Israel must feel the Germans’ support of antisemitism is no longer part of their capitalism. Elon Musk is allowed to support the Alternative for Deutschland, the reactionary bourgeoisie. He controls SpaceX rockets, and has a massive government contract to launch satellites that are used for targeting by Ukraine and Israel in their war efforts supporting the Americans. Musk is also developing non voluntary implants to control the spread of socialism among the young men.
I guess Israel supports this too. Perhaps we should start to brace for the fact Israel may be led by a fascist, or at least condone Musk and his AFD support.
I once thought Israel was a noble cause, a place where the nightmare of the holocaust would never happen again. But continued concessions to capitalism, and the presence of all major capitalist companies including the German ones I mentioned there have changed my mind. All I can say is what I said at the outset; no socialist soul ever fight for a capitalist military. Israel is asking its people for a sacrifice to support the bourgeoisie. It is one that they expressed misgivings about at one time. I guess those days are done now.
