Gilder will have two discussions on âThe Age of Carbon, the Coming Transformation of Human Life, and the Biggest Investment Opportunity of our Lifetimesâ and âYou Ain't Seen Nothing Yet! Why the Future of Semiconductor Investment Will Make the Past Look Like a Slow-Motion Movieâ. [Click here now to reserve your spot!]( UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres has once again failed his âIsrael Test.â Divulging his unoriginal thoughts on the horrific invasion of Israel by jihadists from Hamas and other middens of Mid-East murk and malice, he blamed this war on Israel. While ritually condemning the killings of Israeli civilians, the UN moralist swiftly moves on to his real concern. âThis most recent violence,â he reveals, âdoes not come in a vacuum. The reality is that it grows out of a long-standing conflict, with a 56-year-long occupation.â Fifteen years ago, I penned my best, most passionate book. Entitled âThe Israel Test: Why the Worldâs Most Besieged State is a Beacon of Freedom and Hope for the World Economy,â it was initially edited and published by our Richard Vigilante and reissued in a new edition by Encounter Books in 2012. On the issue of the so-called âoccupation,â the book quoted Winston Churchill, who himself said it all in 1939. Responding to parliamentary efforts to withdraw British support for a Jewish state, he described âthe magnificent work which the Jewish colonists have done: âThey made the desert bloomâ¦started a score of thriving industriesâ¦founded a great city on the barren shoreâ¦harnessed the Jordan and spread its electricity throughout the landâ¦â Then, he made the crucial point for todayâs crisis. âSo far from being persecuted, the Arabs have crowded into the country and multipliedâ¦" Churchill continued: âNow we are asked to decree that all this is to stop and all this is to come to an end. We are now asked to submitâand this is what rankles most with meâto an agitation which is fed with foreign money and ceaselessly inflamed by Nazi and by Fascist propaganda.â [The Only Tech Stock Picker with an Almost Perfect Track Record]( Talk about a Midas touch! A stock picker who specializes in âspecial situationâ investments has been bagging winner after winner since 2020 -- with gains of up to 98%. Out of 17 recent recommendations, all but two were double-digit winners, and only one was a loser. And it turns out, his secret strategy is not that complicated. [Find out the simple secret by clicking here.]( Little has changed today. As I wrote in the âIsrael Test,â âEveryone knows that the word âNaziâ is used promiscuously in the modern world. But the word does have a real meaning. It means the National Socialist Movement dedicated to murderous anti-Semitism. Socialism everywhere expresses envy of excellence by treating the works and wealth of the successful as the wages of sin. Nazis simply specified the sin as the harvest of a Jewish conspiracy.â By this definition, the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) has always been, at its essence, a Nazi organization. During World War II, the PLOâs spiritual founder, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem Haj Amin al-Husseini, declared his view: âGermany is the only country in the world that has not merely fought the Jews at home but has declared war on the entirety of world Jewry; in this war against world Jewry the Arabs feel profoundly connected to Germany.â After aiding the massacre of Jews in Romania and Bosnia and recruiting Bosnian Muslims into the Nazi forces, Husseini visited Auschwitz. There he urged Nazi leader Heinrich Himmler to extend the holocaust to the some-600 thousand Jews then in Palestine. Still unsated in his killing frenzies in late 1944, the Grand Mufti launched an attack of parachutists on the Tel Aviv water supply with 10 containers of toxin. Failing in the attempt, he devoted the rest of his life to the cause of destroying Israel. Arraigned as a war criminal, Husseini gained asylum with the similarly rabid Holocaust celebrants among the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. For his barbarities, the Mufti remains a revered historical figure among the prevailing Palestinians. This Nazi animus originated long before any of the alleged Israeli offenses that are now cited to justify or extenuate Palestinian atrocities. When Husseini died in 1974, taking up his anti-Semitic cause was his distant relative Yasser Arafat, the PLO leader and eventual Nobel âPeaceâ laureate. Arafat characteristically bought Hitlerâs âMein Kampfâ in bulk and distributed it to his followers in Arab translation under the title âMy Jihad.â Arafatâs successor as PLO chief Mahmoud Abbas, supposedly a âmoderate,â devoted his doctoral thesis to a study of what he called âthe Zionist fantasy, the fantastic lie that 6 million Jews were killed.â Contesting Abbas for power and winning Palestinian elections in 2006 was Hamas, whose founding charter and continuing mandate proclaims its devotion to the killing of Jews. Thatâs the nature of the Palestinian movement that the worldâs most moralistic grandees seek endlessly to appease and justify, blandish and subsidize. âThe Israel Testâ pointed to UN chief Guterresâs scores of eminent teachers and precursors. After all, in his reproaches against Israel, the UN leader differed little from most of the paladins of the U.S. State Department, intelligence community, and academy. Today, these critics of Israel continue their self-righteous pronouncements. From former CIA chief John Brennan to Trump tribune Steve Bannon, from the New York Times to the BBC, they pile on behind Hamas to condemn Israelâs Churchillian leader Benjamin Netanyahu. Bannonâs complaint is that in the wake of Joe Bidenâs apparent election, the Israeli leader put the interests of his nation ahead of President Trumpâs effort to contest his electoral outcome. Bannon thus culpably betrayed and misrepresented Trump, who was the nationâs most pro-Israel President and who boldly moved the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem in the teeth of opposition from all the government and academic âexperts.â With an ill-concealed sneer, Bannon implied that Netanyahu had somehow earned his current predicament. All such tut-tut tattlers among the nationâs elite imagine that Israel is somehow a U.S. charity that should show endless and abject gratitude for its sanctimoniously sacrificial benefactors. In no way do these insidious âdefendersâ of Israel so clearly concede the National Socialist framing of the debate as on the question of âsettlements.â On the âsettlementsâ issue hangs the fate of the several hundred thousand Jews living on West Bank territory.

These so-called âsettlementsâ plant productive people on mostly undeveloped areas of Judea and Samaria that once chiefly sprouted missiles and mortars overlooking Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. The settlers created the wealth and provided the water that enabled massive immigration of Arabs to these lands. Refuting every claim of Arab âdisplacementâ by Jews, the Israelis spurred development and welcomed Arabs thronging to participate in it. Between the 1967 war and the first âintifadaâ terror in 1987, Arab settlers moving from Jordan and other Arab countries to the West Bank and Gaza came to outnumber Israeli settlers eight to one. Nonetheless, ever since Israelâs creation and its accommodation of massive Arab immigration, virtually every Arab state expelled its own Jews. Many residents for generations, Jews in Arab lands then numbered some 800,000 and held some $2.5 billion in land and wealth. Nearly all was expropriated without compensation. No one should imagine, however, that Palestinians alone are ingrates toward their Jewish benefactors. âThe Israel Testâ shows that U.S. prosperity, defense, and technological creativity is indispensably reliant on Jewish genius and Israeli ingenuity. Historically and today, the leading U.S. semiconductor company is Intel Corporation (NASDAQ: INTC). From its founding, Intel has been indispensably dependent on Israel for leading engineers and executives, leading-edge chip designs and crucial advanced wafer fabrication. From IBM to Google, other pioneering American technology players depend on Israeli laboratories and inventors. This dependency continues today. My investment newsletters all are currently exploring the huge promise of the new revolution in materials science and technology represented by the discovery and development of graphene. You may well already know the pitch. A single atomic layer of carbon atoms that is 200 times stronger than steel and a thousand times more conductive than copper, graphene promises to transform every U.S. industry, from electronics and computation to construction and architecture, from transportation and aerospace to medicine and surgery. For military and space uses, NASA urges incorporation of graphene âin every part of the space program.â Yet when I wanted to research the development and application of graphene for everything from biosensors to supercapacitors, from flexible solar panel films to self-driving cars, from construction materials to implants for severed spinal cords, I found I had to go to Israel. My time theory of money shows that such Israeli contributions to technological progress in graphene and other frontiers of innovation are far greater and more strategic than is gauged by the usual economic metrics and adjusted for inflation by Consumer Price Indices. Propelling the entire world economy for more than half a century have been advances in information technology spearheaded by Israelis. These contributions have radically reduced the work time, measured in universal time-prices, required to earn the money to purchase the fruits of technological progress. In a dangerous epoch fraught with peril, the Israel test asks whether the world can suppress envy of Jews and recognize its dependence on the supreme contributions of a relatively tiny minority of men and women. The world subsists on hard and possibly reversible accomplishments in medicine, technology, pharmacology, engineering and enterprise. It thrives not on forcibly reallocating land and resources but on fostering their most productive and ingenious uses. The survival of civilization depends on suppressing envy and jealousy toward achievement, recognizing excellence wherever it appears and nourishing it until it prevails. We all depend on a vanguard of visionary creators on the frontiers of creativity and genius. We depend now on Israel and Israel depends in part on us. Israel is the pivot, the axis, the litmus, the trial. Are you for civilization or barbarism, life or death, wealth or envy? Are you an exponent of excellence and accomplishment or of a leveling creed of troglodytic envy and hatred? That is the âIsrael Test,â inescapable today.
