The article argues that the Hamas attacks of October 7, 2023, exposed the moral bankruptcy of trusted global institutions (like the Vatican, the UN, and the ICJ), which have subsequently weaponized libels like "genocide" against Israel's self-defense while enabling its enemies. This response is seen as the culmination of a decades-long ideological war that has normalized antisemitism under the guise of "anti-Zionism," particularly through the woke-leftist alliance with Islamism that permeates academia and media. The author criticizes the unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state as rewarding terror and highlights the fatal error of relying on facts alone, calling for a new, coordinated "Iron Narrative" strategy—encompassing legal, reputational, and media counteroffensives—to dismantle the global network of antisemitic incitement and its agents.
