Israel Shamir (Israel Yuzefovich Schmerler, known in Sweden as Yoran Ermas)
He was also published under the names Israel Adam Shamir, Robert David, Yoran Yermas, Adam Ermash, Vasily Krasevsky.

Guide, translator, journalist and writer.
Israel Shamir was born in Novosibirsk in 1947. He graduated from the physics and mathematics school and then studied at Novosibirsk University at the Faculty of Mathematics, and later at Faculty of Law Novosibirsk branch Sverdlovsk legal institute... Shamir made friends with dissidents at school. Studying jurisprudence, he wrote a bill on human rights and freedoms in the USSR, for which he was subsequently expelled from the university. This only strengthened his desire to sacrifice himself and devote his life to fighting for a just cause. In the late 1960s, Shamir met in Moscow with the Zionists (who highly appreciated the experience of samizdat and Israel's conspiratorial activities) and became an active participant in the Zionist movement. In 1968 he protested against the Soviet aggression in Czechoslovakia. A year later, Shamir emigrated to Israel. Here he served in the army in the elite paratroopers and took part in the 1973 war. After the army, Shamir continued his law studies at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. However, fate decreed that the legal profession was abandoned. But Shamir realized himself as a journalist and writer.
Israel Shamir received his first journalistic experience on Israeli radio. As a freelance correspondent, he was often sent to the "hot spots" of the planet: Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, etc. In 1975, Shamir moved to London and worked in the Russian service of the BBC. In 1977-79 he lived in Japan, where he was at the invitation of Japanese radio ...
Already in the 70s, Israel Shamir became disillusioned with the ideals of Zionism, because he saw how the rights of non-Jews were violated in Israel. The very situation in the country during these years resembles Stalin's Russia and evokes in him a feeling of protest. Therefore, returning to Israel in 1980, Shamir was actively involved in political activities. He works as a spokesman for the Israeli Socialist Party (then called Mapam) and as a correspondent for the Haaretz newspaper. At the same time, he translates the works of Agnon (laureate Nobel Prize) and Joyce's Ulysses.
The most famous work of I. Shamir - "Pine and Olive" - ​​a historical study of the Holy Land of Israel (Palestine) and the Arab-Israeli conflicts. It was published in 1988. In this book, the writer sharply condemns Israel's aggressive and criminal policy towards the Palestinians.
In 1989-93, Israel Shamir was in Russia as a correspondent for "Haaretz". At first, he perceives perestroika with enthusiasm. However, the real "perestroika" foreign policy immediately aroused great concern in him with its pro-American course. At the same time, his scandalous articles in Pravda, Our Contemporary and the newspaper Den (Tomorrow), where Shamir (under the pseudonym Robert David) argued that Soviet foreign policy was optimal both for the USSR itself, are related. and for third world countries. The writer harshly condemned President Yeltsin and his entourage for the shooting of the White House, describing these actions as illegal and illegitimate. Soon, thanks to the recommendations of such dissimilar writers as Lev Anninsky and Stanislav Kunyaev, Israel Shamir became a member of the Writers' Union of Russia.
In 1993, Israel Shamir returned to Israel and settled in the city of Jaffa. He writes numerous articles for Russian Israeli and Russian newspapers, collaborates with literary magazines. He also translates Homer's famous Odyssey. This work of his was published in 2000 in St. Petersburg. The next big project of the writer is the translation of a medieval Talmudic manuscript into Russian.
In his latest articles, Israel Shamir criticizes the Israeli leftist "Two State solution" (division of the state of Israel into Arab and Jewish). "

Several factors only added to the confusion. First, Shamirov's ill-fated pseudonym "Robert David", from which there was no rest. Who writes under whose name and against whom? A Jew under the name of an American against the Israelis in Russian? A Russian under a Hebrew surname against American Jews? An Israeli under a pseudonym who translated himself from English into Russian? And, in general, where is the surname, and where is the name?

Then - the immense outlook of the author, signed "I. Shamir". He amazed, he forced him to choose one thing: either to admire his erudition, or to accept another version - about a "group of comrades" masquerading as this name. And it’s true: now Izya is here, now he is there; then he translates Joyce, then Homer, then lives in Japan for three years, then works for the BBC, then fights with the Arabs, then - with the Soviet special services, then he is a Zionist, then an anti-Semite, then he is a socialist, then - an interpreter of the Talmud ... What the hell, erudition, because there are just a lot of them! ..
From time to time, Israel Shamir himself visited the editorial office of Zavtra, which could not but raise new questions. Elderly, but lean, feline, but tired, black as a Negro and just as curly, at the same time tenacious and contemplative, witty and thoughtful, similar and unlike Prokhanov, drinking vodka with a cucumber, speaking Russian with Jewish intonations, but without the slightest accent, smiling guiltily because, it seems, he himself does not know who he is.

Shamir's views
1. Israel Shamir stands for the rights of the Palestinian population. He acts as a loner, not being a member of the ranks of public organizations and political parties. In his fight against Zionism, Israel Shamir often shows solidarity with ultra-left and ultra-right activists in Russia, Europe and the United States. Shamir advocates the creation of a single binational Jewish-Arab state in place of Israel, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.

2. Shamir rejects the opinion of many commentators that Our Home Israel party led by Avigdor Lieberman is racist. He approves of Lieberman's plan to exchange territories between Israel and the future Palestinian state.

3. In the article "Christmas Greetings to the Hellenes" Shamir writes that peace in the Middle East will not be established until the Jews convert to Christianity: "There is no chance for peace in the Holy Land until the position of the synagogue is undermined and the Jews are not saved by the church." ...

4. Shamir believes that at the heart of the Jewish consciousness lies a deep doubt about the equality of a Jew and a non-Jew. According to Shamir, adherents of such a view do not perceive the life of a Jew and a Palestinian as equivalent. Shamir compares the attitude of the "Jewish consciousness" to a non-Jew, with the attitude of a person to an animal.

5. According to Shamir, because of the centuries of persecution, Jews perceive themselves as victims and have reproduced the torture-victim model in Israel. Only in Israel did they accept the role of tormentor and oppressor. Shamir calls this state of affairs "revenge at the wrong address."

6. In the article "Shadow of the ZOG" (an abbreviation for "Zionist occupation government"), Shamir, discussing the double loyalty of American Jews and double standards in US policy, writes that the war in Iraq in 2003 was inspired by the pro-Israel lobby in the United States with the goal of creating a regime friendly to Israel in Iraq.

7. In the article "The Rock of Dissent", Shamir announces his readiness to work in the defense of the rights of Palestinians with the American organization "National Alliance", whose members can only be people of white, non-Jewish origin. Shamir admits that the Alliance can be seen as an ally in the fight against Israel's policy towards the Palestinians. "They cannot be more racist than the current Israeli government or the leaders of the American Jewish population," Shamir writes, and expresses bewilderment that, unlike the National Alliance, no one boycotts pro-Israel organizations. Many Palestinian organizations boycotted the National Alliance's anti-Zionist concert, fearing that they would be reproached for links with neo-Nazis. Shamir writes about this that they have nothing to fear, since in Israel and among Jewish diaspora, as well as in the Western media, the Palestinians were vilified as soon as possible and have already been compared with the Nazis more than once.

Shamir's critics accuse him of anti-Semitism and call him a "self-hating Jew."

Not without fear I got on the Moscow-Kiev train. Many disturbing rumors come from Ukraine. Recently there was a wave of political assassinations, the victims of which also fell my friend the writer Oles Buzina. People who disagree with the Kiev regime are regularly labeled as “separatists” and “traitors”. I wouldn’t be on a rack in the basement of the SBU, under torture; would they want to present me as a "Moscow terrorist"? And yet the desire to see what was happening with my own eyes, and even at the time of flowering chestnuts, turned out to be stronger than fear.

How not to envy the deceased! Killed by shots on the bridge near the Kremlin, light snow, young blonde - beauty! It is, of course, a provocation, but the provocateur was loving to Nemtsov.


Putin does not go to the Horde

It was good when the Russian president The European leaders were welcomed with honor. But it's even better when he doesn't have to go anywhere. I like (in the language of social media) Putin's turn towards Russia and Russia's turn towards itself. This turn can no longer be overlooked. The President no longer travels to the Horde, he does not need a label for reign, he has the consent of the people to whom he came.

French enema - for liberals

When the British want to show what they would like to do (or have already done) with the enemy, they show one finger; the French - a whole hand, on the shoulder. “We'll plant such an enema,” they imply. And sometimes this universal gesture means - how you got us. It is called quenelle in French. In fact, keneel, or knelle, is a popular dish, like a pie, and for some reason quenelle seems like an enema to the French. Now all of France is seething with this enema.

In the wilds of Mediastan

But simultaneously released on screens two films about Julian Assange and his organization "WikiLeaks" - "The Fifth Estate" by experienced Bill Condon and "Mediastan" by the young Swedish director Johannes Walström - staged a race for leadership.

America kirdyk?

In the USA - "shutdown", the state has stopped payments. Thousands of civil servants were sent home, they are not giving out pensions, and there is a complete stop of the state apparatus ahead. And two weeks later, a default looms - the inability to pay the interest of a multi-trillion dollar debt to everyone in the world, including China and Russia. There is hysteria in the country.


Snowden in Moscow

Moscow has a wonderful summer, warm and not hot, from time to time - thunderstorms and rains that clear the air. Cafes are full of tourists, beer and kvass flow like a river, almost like in Kiev, which is still more comfortable.

If tomorrow is war

I am an inveterate optimist, and when asked "Will there be a war" I usually answer in the negative. But these days I will not vouch. It hadn't smelled like that for a long time.

Prism over the world

John writes a business letter to Jack, Marie glues cats to a Facebook page, Kostya talks on the phone with Olya - all these communications fall on one virtual table in the NSA, the most secret American intelligence service. We live in a world where there are no more secrets - and this is the last secret. The exposure of the top-secret project Prism, which caused a storm of indignation in the world and reminded us of WikiLeaks, leads to such a sad conclusion.

Gay Pride in Tel Aviv

There is a gay pride parade in Tel Aviv. Open painted trucks drive around the city, and half-naked young people, also painted and painted, drive them. All young people, tens of thousands of people, both boys and girls with any sexual preferences, take part in the gay parade, not counting the police and paramilitary guards.

Swedes are being turned against Russia

The Swedish media are discussing the topic of the Russian military threat. Russian teachings air force in the immediate vicinity of the island of Gotland are seen as a security threat not only to Sweden, but to all the Baltic countries.

Vanguard on the Neva

White nights have come to St. Petersburg, the most romantic time of the year. “We have been waiting for this time for ten months, it lasts for two months, and then again - darkness, rain and expectation of white nights” - so say the locals.

Storm on the Bosphorus

Istanbul smelled of tear gas. The police poured it out in huge quantities, trying to disperse the crowds, consisting of disaffected people of all sorts and directions. Among them are communists, Muslim Sufis, nationalists, office people, the unemployed. The authorities hope that the unrest will exhaust itself and end by itself.

Moti Vanunu asks for Russian citizenship

Ukraine does not rise

Poplar fluff flies over the mother of Russian cities, golden domes shine, people serenely drink beer - freely from mugs at tables or from a neck, standing at stalls.

The demonstration and rally were led by opposition leaders Yatsenyuk and Tyagnibok, Ukrainian nationalists.

Fraerok for the European Union

At the red light

About the new novel by Maxim Kantor "Red Light". Publishing house "Astrel" 2013
Kantor takes off his kid gloves and slaps his ideological opponents, the bog leaders of the "creative class", on the tinsel. He calls them lackeys of bandits, indicates their connection with Western intelligence services, proves their direct origin from the SS and policemen, claims that they were preparing a putsch, compares them with the Trotskyists who supported Hitler. The creative class, according to Kantor, "a society in society that emerged from scratch, an elite, privileged, faithful to the ideas of inequality." Nobody wrote so sharply about the marsh.

Flashmob lampshades

Fighting anti-Semitism is a favorite pastime of Jews. It's like scratching where it itches. And if it does not itch and scratch, it will start to itch. Dozens of forums, hundreds of bloggers and journalists harnessed to the May campaign against anti-Semites. Alexander Kuprin compared these campaigns to a swarm of gadflies that can blind and kill a horse in a swamp. These flash mobs are group dynamics exercises for Jews and Philosemites, a kind of collective morning gymnastics in China during the Cultural Revolution.

Interview to the Perm newspaper "Zvezda".
Moving like mercury, Israel Shamir can be in India today (where he really was on the eve of his arrival in Perm to participate in the Russian Meetings project), tomorrow - in Japan, the day after tomorrow - in Israel or Moscow ...
Recorded by Yuri BELIKOV on May 17, 2013
Israel is a truly legendary person: in 1968, being a native of Novosibirsk, he protested against the introduction of Soviet troops into Czechoslovakia, then he moved to Israel, and it was here, on the Promised Land, that his rethinking of many world ideological clichés began. In almost all of his books, including such as The Land of Pines and Olives, The Flowers of Galilee, and The Kabbalah of Power, Shamir appears as an anti-Zionist and, more broadly, as a person convinced that world Jewry has no prerogatives in order to count themselves as the ultimate truth.

Israel Shamir: "At Easter, Israel must definitely bomb itself"


Permian

I was invited to Perm to give a lecture and meet with Permians as part of the Russian Meetings program hosted by the ardent Perm human rights activist Roman Yushkov. Although I was born not so far from these places - in Novosibirsk, I have never been to Perm, and, of course, it was interesting for me to see with my own eyes how this unusual city lives.

French spring

A cold and rainy spring fell this year in France. Only the last Sunday made me happy - the sun came out, for the first time in several months, and immediately warmth came pouring in and the trees began to bloom. Encouraged by the weather, the French took to mass demonstrations against the government's antisocial policies, symbolized by the gay marriage law. The police showed harshness, dozens ended up in prisons.

Crazy Russian boy

Andryusha Pshenichnikov, 24 years old - a good Russian boy, such in the early novels of the Strugatskys flew as trainees to Mars. It is a pleasure that there are such people - straightforward, honest, capable of self-sacrifice, ready to step over instructions and orders at the call of conscience - and even get into trouble. Only Soviet Union no more, and therefore instead of Mars, he sits in an Egyptian prison.

The last parade

Israel Shamir

Long live the great victory of the Soviet people, long live the veterans, eternal glory to the heroes, hurray! Well, that's enough. Shouted "hurray", now you can get down to business. I didn’t want to spoil the holiday mood, but these celebrations of victory in a long-dead war were outdated. Let this celebration of the 65th anniversary of victory be the last.


Report at the IRKSV conference "The Future of China and the Islamic Factor"

Israel Shamir

The Chinese are not Jews at all, because Jews know how to turn even small capital into political influence. Russia also learned this from its Jews, and today it can rule not only in the field of economics, but in international politics.

Israel Shamir and Alisa Shamir

It is time for the Church to lead artists, Russian, Western and Eastern, to bring them out of the Egyptian captivity of curators and merchants, to bring living contemporary art to the temple. Sim win - so Russian Orthodox Church will be able to be ahead of the rest, taking into account the successes and failures of Western churches in this area.

Cursory notes on the trail of Art. "Dispute about the future" by Israel Shamir

Dispute about the future

A dispute about the future flared up in the newspaper Zavtra - whether Russia needs a new Stalin, and where he should lead Russia. In Prokhanov's latest novel, The Virtuoso, Russia is seeking Nikolai II. The search for the future in the past, or the past in the future is a worthy business, but how and where?

How to Save the World in Ten Easy Steps, Step One

[Presentation at conferences in Madrid and Moscow]

The world is facing the threat of death, but salvation is still possible - and even without radical and bloody coups, without mass destruction, with the help of simple reforms, within the framework of existing legislation. It is not necessary, and it is not necessary to "destroy everything to the ground, and then." Can be fixed!

Fifth column

It is terrible that the missionary priest Fr. Sysoev. There can be no "but" here. He seems to me a worthy person.

Bite my elbows

Noticeable success in the further Judaization of Russia was achieved a few days ago. Moreover, what is especially pleasant for a Jew, success was achieved at the expense of the client. The Russians themselves paid for the ideological and theological mine that was laid on them.

The hope of the world

The Russians regained positions that seemed to have been lost forever under Gorbachev and Yeltsin. Russia once again enjoys great prestige and love - from Angola to Brazil, from Vietnam to Norway, because it is perceived as the leader of the free world. A world free from American occupation, free from consumerism, free from the dictatorship of the golden calf. Of all the countries where there are no American military bases, Russia is the most important of all. She is a natural leader. And therefore, despite dollars and bombs, great China decided to follow the course of free Moscow, and not submit to the evil will of Washington.

Bible - in Hebrew!

Israel Adam Shamir, Speech at the Dialogue of Civilizations conference in Rhodes, 8-12 October 2009

Saddam Hussein tried so hard to seize Kuwait that ended in "Desert Storm." Something similar happened in the Georgian war: Saakashvili saw that South Ossetia was left unattended, Russia did not respond to his provocations, and tried to grab and run away. As you know, Russia was on the alert, and the smart Saakashvili got his hands on it.

Judges on the soap

Unnamed rulers want to be considered the only barrier of civilization from obsessed religious nationalists, kaganists, settlers. So right hand they support and incite the Kaganists, and with their left hand hold them back. They are, they say, sane, and all the others are insane. The most naive part of Israeli society takes these words seriously and considers the judges' brethren to be "leftist."

Got it!

He liked ordinary, nominal Jews who did not make the main work of life out of their Jewishness. Everyone likes them or doesn't like them, depending on their personal qualities. They themselves suffer from the cursed Jewish identity imposed on them, as normal women suffer from the struggle for their rights imposed by feminists.

Politically incorrect humanism

it is difficult to name among modern political writers the second such, equally concerned about the fate common man regardless of nationality and place of residence.

Breakout from the Gaza ghetto

They escaped, risking their lives, overcame the resistance of the army with a swift onslaught, destroyed the fence, climbed over the barbed wire, erased the border between the two states, performed feats worthy of great warriors, suffered losses - and when they did all this, they went to the store and bought bread for their children.

Rest only in our dreams

"Or read the Marriage of Figaro" - advised Pushkin's Mozart, as a cure for the blues. Our contemporaries can recommend the funny and mischievous plays by Maxim Kantor, included in the collection "Evening with a Baboon". They need to be put on, and the viewer will run to the theater for this cheerful satire.

The best cinematography in the world is Iran. Beautiful women and courageous men - this is Iran. Like Russia and China, Iran is a separate civilization. Yesenin fell in love with her from a distance, and I always rely on the opinion of the poet.

Interview to islam.ru

Jews and revolution

afterword to the collection Russia and the Jews, publishing house "Az", Moscow 2007

Bloody Easter by Dr. Toaff

Blood, betrayal, torture and finally surrender intertwined in the fate of the Italian Jew, Dr. Ariel Toaff. He and his story could have come from the pen of his compatriot, Umberto Eco. Dr. Toaff made a discovery that horrified him, but he courageously continued the work he had begun. Then the Jewish community put such strong pressure on the scientist that he broke down and was forced to repent and renounce. This did not happen in the Middle Ages, but in our days.

Russian Intifada

The insane and provocative decision of the Estonian nationalist prime minister Andras Ansip to eliminate the monument and the burial place of the soldiers who liberated Tallinn brought Estonia to the brink of civil war.

Yeltsin died

His last years passed away from power, and the youth were surprised to learn that he had died - "But didn't he die a long time ago?" Who can you compare it with? With Sulla, the Roman dictator who broke the republican rule, carried out proscriptions and retired? Or with the unusually lucky False Dmitry, who brought foreigners to Moscow and ended the centuries-old rule of the Rurikovichs?

I confessed myself

In anti-Soviet intellectual circles they told an anecdote about how Soviet scientists learned the name of the pharaoh buried in the Great Pyramid - "he confessed himself." They say that some Soviet leaders, arrested by Yagoda and Yezhov in the thirties, slander themselves too much - they say, we cooperated with Japanese intelligence, and poisoned horses, and poured sand into the machines - so that the judges would understand and exclaim: “This is too much! It can not be!" Apparently, the same idea appeared in Khalid Sheikh Muhammad, only he did not take into account one thing: the Americans lack a sense of humor and understanding of irony.

Yushchenko putsch

In Ukraine - a coup d'etat. Yushchenko putsch. Until this simple definition seeps into our collective minds, the right decision cannot be made.

After Easter

It is a pity that the Soviet government could not open the church, could not fully accept it, and allow people to celebrate Orthodox holidays. If she could, she would never collapse
Ukraine - divorce failed
Iran at gunpoint

Dangerous Flight

The other day (March 15, 2007) The New York Times made the world happy - the main organizer of "9-11" confessed to all his atrocities.

Putin's asymmetrical response

Israel Shamir is an Israeli journalist, writer and translator. He is the author of several dozen books, and is also known for overseeing the publication of documents from the Wikileaks website in the Russian Reporter.

In the book presented to your attention, I. Shamir shows how Vladimir Putin's new policy is being built after the annexation of Crimea to Russia, the events in southeastern Ukraine and the West's sanctions against the Russian state and its representatives. Putin showed himself, writes Shamir, as a master of "asymmetric responses": while Western politicians looked at Slavyanka and Gorlovka on the map, Putin outflanked the enemy from the east on the world map and won a brilliant victory by signing a gigantic gas contract with China.

If, as a result of the gas deal, the Berlin-Moscow-Beijing alliance is built, the world will be different, Russia will be reborn as a world power. The main thing that Russia has, Shamir argues in his book, is the minds, educated people who can help the world free itself from American dictatorship and live a free life.

Kabbalah power

There are so-called "indecent topics" among the intelligentsia, which few would dare to touch upon: the world conspiracy, the protocols of the Elders of Zion, "blood libel", etc.

Israel Shamir, journalist and writer, took a chance and announced crusade against xenophobia, chauvinism and Zionism. He dared to touch "for a living" the wise men of Zion. Shamir hates violence in all its manifestations, especially the violence of the authorities over a “little man”, be it a Jew, Palestinian, American or Russian. “And if the violence is not stopped,” he says. "The apocalypse is inevitable."

Putin's Syrian attack

Israel Shamir - Israeli writer, translator and publicist; he is the author of more than three dozen books, many of which have been published in Russia.

In his new book, Israel Shamir assesses the policy of Vladimir Putin in the world in general and in the Middle East in particular.

Shamir does not ignore the latest high-profile terrorist attacks related to Syria - the explosion of a Russian plane flying from Egypt and the explosions in Paris. As a result, the fight against terrorism has become a major issue international politics and Putin received unexpected support in his "Syrian attack."

Disrupt the conspiracy of the Elders of Zion

In the twentieth century, the "old elites" left the scene, and the admirers of Mamon took their place. "Mamonts", as I. Shamir calls them, strive to seize the helm of power over the world. For them, anyone who does not worship the cult of profit is already a fascist, anyone who is not of their blood is a subhuman.

There is indeed a conspiracy against freedom. Under the leadership of the Zion sages, it is carried out by the "new world elites" who use them against their peoples, at the instigation of the Israeli lobby, the special services and the media. However, on September 11, 2001, the magic pentagram of the Pentagon was broken and the Twin Tower of Babel collapsed. The day is near when the world conspiracy of the Elders of Zion will be thwarted.

A new book by the famous Israeli writer and journalist I. Shamir is about this.
