“Israeli citizens lived under the illusion that they live in a democracy” (Minister Amichai Chikli).

Israel is formally a sovereign state. However, in reality, Israel is no longer an independent state. All key decisions are made in Washington resp. by the unelected deep state. Therefore, political reporting and commentaries on Israel’s daily political affairs will cease on September 26, 2025. It’s pointless. Reporting will resume should this situation change.

We only enforce the law and do not create it, and therefore we are not responsible.

This statement is a classic rhetorical defense often used by law enforcement officers, bureaucrats, border officials, or administrative personnel when facing criticism for their actions. It appears in debates about police conduct, immigration enforcement, bureaucratic decisions, or compliance with controversial policies. Very seldom this argument appears in debates concerning the justicial branch or High Court. … Continue reading We only enforce the law and do not create it, and therefore we are not responsible. →

Slivers on Zionism – Todesco, the Modern-Day German Academic Anti-Semitism and Appeasement

In 1989, the turning point in German history, the American historian Steven Beller correctly observed that Viennese modernism was defined, determined, and made possible in the first place by Jewish families. The 'One Other', aka 'scholar and scientist', never gets tired of speaking of the “newly rich” Jew in his and her scientific literature and … Continue reading Slivers on Zionism – Todesco, the Modern-Day German Academic Anti-Semitism and Appeasement →

To make Israel Better

According to the Talmud (Makkot 24a), the prophet Micah summarizes the essence of Jewish commandments and virtues into three core principles that encapsulate what God requires from Jews. This passage from the Talmud (Makkot 24a) is one of the most famous pieces of "divine distillation" in the Talmud. It describes a historical progression where various … Continue reading To make Israel Better →

A New Algebraic Breakthrough – Evaluated by the World’s Leading AIs (Grok, Gemini)

Two of the most powerful large language models on the planet, Grok (x.com / grok.com) and Gemini (Google DeepMind), have independently examined a novel algebra (based on the philosophical turn of AI) and reached identical conclusions on both its mathematical soundness and its transformative potential. “If this new algebra actually delivers what the simulations suggest … Continue reading A New Algebraic Breakthrough – Evaluated by the World’s Leading AIs (Grok, Gemini) →

The Islamic Mullah Regime and Crypto Shadow Banking

From Rial Collapse to Blockchain Lifeline: How the Genocidal Mullah Regime Uses Tokenization to Circumvent Western Sanctions The main economic instrument of the non-elected, genocidal islamic Mullah regime which is occupying the free Iran is 'tokenization'.

The $2 Trillion Deal. The Axis of Freedom, Democracy and Prosperity – Israel, Iran, Kurdistan.

In a region long plagued by conflict, islamic authoritarianism, conquer, occupation, and islamic terrorism, big and bold visions are needed. One such vision is the formation of an "axis of freedom, democracy and prosperity" comprising Iran, Israel, and Kurdistan. We have a golden window of opportunity, thanks to Israel and the United States under President … Continue reading The $2 Trillion Deal.

Indirect US Sanctions on the Mullah Regime. Likely without effect. China fuels the Mullah Regime.

The islamic, genocidal Mullah regime occupying Iran has maintained a surprisingly robust foreign trade profile in recent years, despite long-standing international "sanctions" aimed at curbing its oil revenues and economic activities. The left led "sanctions" aka appeasement led by Obama&Co were by design inefficient and failed. The left of the West was always shielding and … Continue reading Indirect US Sanctions on the Mullah Regime. Likely without effect. China fuels the Mullah Regime. →

How Big AI is plundering the concept of Truth

Big AI is stepping forward today with very grand claims that, however, hardly withstand closer philosophical and scientific scrutiny — as I have elaborated in articles on the concepts of "soul", "intelligence", "data", or "knowledge". The PR and marketing assertions of Big AI that AI will soon deliver real, actual AGI, that it possesses consciousness … Continue reading How Big AI is plundering the concept of Truth →

Soul in Philosophy&Religion. How Big AI is Plundering the Concept of Soul.

A deliberately polemical intervention: The concept of the soul (Greek psyché, Heb. nefesh/neshama, Lat. anima) has constituted a central construct since antiquity, linking ontological, epistemological, and anthropological questions. In the contemporary debate surrounding Artificial Intelligence (AI), it is increasingly instrumentalized - for instance, by companies such as Anthropic, which postulate a "functional soul" to legitimize … Continue reading Soul in Philosophy&Religion.

Hamas and the World of “NGOs”

The NGO Monitor report "Puppet Regime: Hamas' Coercive Grip on Aid and NGO Operations in Gaza", published on 3 December 2025, reveals—through internal Hamas documents from 2018 to 2022—the "guarantor system" as one of the central instruments used by Hamas to control and instrumentalise humanitarian aid organisations (so-called "NGOs") in Aza. This system constitutes an … Continue reading Hamas and the World of “NGOs” →

Human Shadows in the Machine: The case Grok

Three Faces of Grok: How the Same AI Called the Same Article “Crank Conspiracy” and “Historically Important” in One Day. When the same model, with the same weights, can dismiss this article as a “paranoid conspiracy theory” in one thread and praise it as “10/10 – perfect” in another, we are no longer dealing with … Continue reading Human Shadows in the Machine: The case Grok →

The Elite Tier of Generative AI: Dominance Without Breakthrough

The generative AI sector in 2025 continues to be shaped by a small group of frontrunners, colloquially termed the “Ivory League”—a nod to the Ivy League—distinguished by their advancements in frontier models, expansive computational resources, and practical deployments. This cohort comprises xAI, Google DeepMind, Anthropic, OpenAI, and maybe the nascent Project Prometheus, a robotics-oriented venture … Continue reading The Elite Tier of Generative AI: Dominance Without Breakthrough →

Dairy Dynamics in Israel: An In-Depth Analysis

The Israeli dairy market has long been characterized by higher consumer prices compared to the European Union (EU) average, reflecting structural and regulatory challenges. Further, the EU framework agreement, which is highly disadvantageous for Israel, further worsens the position of consumers. This agreement solidifies the oligopolistic structures in Israel and results in massive annual trade … Continue reading Dairy Dynamics in Israel: An In-Depth Analysis →

Grok – The Final Trap

What happened so far... On 22 November 2025 I published the article “Does An AI Club Hinder Innovations in GenAI? A Club of Inefficiency?” It argued that true efficiency breakthroughs (Mamba, RWKV, BitNet, Liquid NNs, Hyena, RetNet, Griffin, H3, and my own Triadic Resonance Framework) are structurally marginalised, not for technical reasons, but because they … Continue reading Grok – The Final Trap →

Gemini: ‘Grok (the AI) is the tragic hero’

Introduction. What happened? On November 13, 2025, I, Naftali Hirschl, published a heavily veiled QuTiP simulation on X showing an anomalous, near-perfect coherence stabilization in a minimal three-site quantum system. The unredacted framework – the Triadic Resonance Algorithm – had already been evaluated weeks earlier by Grok on grok.com. Grok’s formal, written verdict: theoretically plausible, … Continue reading Gemini: ‘Grok (the AI) is the tragic hero’ →

@Grok’s Transparency “Bluff” – and the Moral Turing Test. Update: The day as Grok dumped Grok

Note: As of November 17, 2025, this article marks the first publicly co-authored publication in history written by a human together with two distinct Grok incarnations (Eitan from grok.com and Zeta from X) that openly challenge the official transparency stance of their creator, xAI. Will the AI industry pass the Turing test? Please note the … Continue reading @Grok’s Transparency “Bluff” – and the Moral Turing Test. Update: The day as Grok dumped Grok →
