Let me make it clear beforehand that this wasn't done by the players. Although many players are active in the Palestinian region and occasionally cause trouble for the Israeli army, Qin Shan's previous work focused on Xinhua and East Asia, so more than 90% of the players were active there. There were very few people in the remaining regions, and fewer than 3,000 players in the Middle East.
It wasn't until the end of 1996, under Qin Shan's arrangement, that the number of players active in the Middle East reached around 10,000.
It's not that players dislike the Middle East, but the various point-based tasks on Xinhua's side have created a task list that's over ten meters long. Everyone is incredibly busy, especially with infrastructure-related work. Many veteran players are experiencing a second spring, immersed in the great mission of building the motherland, and have no other thoughts at all.
Meanwhile, the Sino-Soviet alliance in the home world was mainly focused on its own territory in the eighth world, so the manpower that could be spared was very limited, unless... a group of resistance fighters were brought over from the Middle East in the home world.
The local world has now entered 2050. Many of the Palestinian resistance fighters from back then, if they hadn't become superhumans, would have become old men with white hair and beards. But when another world's Palestine needs them, they can still enter the game pod and be young again.
Arafat's death was entirely due to Israel being driven to desperation by the various attacks by players. This was not yet 2023, when the myth of the invincible army had been shattered, nor had Israel clashed with the Lebanese bubble tea shop. It was 1997, and Israel's reputation as the little tyrant of the Middle East was still intact. It did not have a bad reputation internationally, and Middle Eastern countries were still trembling under Israel's tyranny.
However, the players' combat power is still quite incomprehensible to Israel, even when they are under left-wing rule and their combat power is at its peak. What normal person can throw a 50-kilogram explosive charge 300 meters and throw it into an Israeli outpost through an observation port? Even mortars would say that this question is a bit beyond their scope.
In less than a month, the Israeli army lost two entire brigades of soldiers, some losing limbs, others going to hell, with no risk of recovery.
Israel was enraged by the sudden appearance of more than two thousand disabled soldiers and over ten thousand mutilated corpses.
I, Israel, the little tyrant of the Middle East, a developed country in West Asia (yes, Israel is an Asian country), why am I being bullied by a bunch of guys whose organizational numbers I don't even know? It's infuriating!
Enraged Israel demanded that Fatah restrain its resistance groups or face retaliation. But even Arafat's personal intervention wouldn't help. The players are currently unorganized, relying on lone wolves or other attacks to harass Israel. How can you control a group of people who don't even have a fixed base?
However, the Israeli retaliation was unbearable for Fatah, which had become a compromise faction. So they decided to arrest someone who attacked the Israeli army and question them. A player who enjoyed riding with the locals found this interesting and announced that he was the top leader and wanted to talk directly with Arafat.
This is nothing in itself; being able to communicate is a good thing.
Israel, however, believes this is a conspiracy by Fatah, an act of condoning anti-Israel forces. They argue that if Fatah dares to openly communicate today, what will they do tomorrow—turn Jews into soap? This is no ordinary terrorist organization; a strong crackdown is necessary!
Israel then planned to bomb the enemy as they were heading to Arafat's residence. The plane was carrying bombs, so it would only take a blink of an eye, and it would be very easy.
However, even Israel itself did not expect that Arafat would come out of his residence to greet him, and on the way, no less, because it was a last-minute decision. By the time Israel received the intelligence, the bomb had already been dropped.
The result was quite ironic: upon seeing the rebel planes, the player immediately slammed the car door shut and ran away, while the Israeli bombs, right before everyone's eyes, sent Arafat packing.
Well, compared to his historical fate, Arafat's death actually has a very positive significance. The leader of Israel at this time was someone everyone is familiar with: Netanyahu.
Surprise! Unexpected, right? You didn't expect this guy to become the Prime Minister of Israel in 1997. He was elected three times afterward, making him a legendary figure in Israel. At that time, he was also a clear member of the Likud party, whose predecessor was the Zionist terrorist organization Irgun (which is only one character different from the protagonist of another of my novels, ugh, bad luck).
So everyone can probably guess the composition of this Israeli government. It's just that Israel is still in a position to manage things well, so there's no need for it to act so extremely. Or rather, because smartphones and the internet are not yet widespread, many of Israel's extreme massacres have no chance to be shown to the world.
It's important to understand that the Israel Defense Forces are so extreme that they can kill indiscriminately, meaning they open fire without warning. In such sudden situations, it would be very difficult to obtain video evidence unless everyone had a recording device.
Because it wasn't an extreme measure, the Israeli government was still intelligent enough to understand the public opinion and subsequent impact of killing Arafat in this way. They immediately began to explain, using their media hegemony to try and blame it on... blame it on... those people having no organization whatsoever!
Forget it, who cares if they are or not, just grab any scapegoat. Hamas, this is a Hamas conspiracy, Arafat was lured out and killed by them. We Israel only wanted to eliminate terrorist organizations, not kill Arafat. It's all Hamas's fault, we Israel are innocent!
That's basically the message Israel uses for its domestic and international propaganda: repeating the same things over and over again, but never admitting that it did it.
As long as I don't admit it, public intellectuals will defend me!
Normally, this is how it works. Under the protection of the Western countries' hegemony over public opinion, Israel successfully deceived the world for more than half a century. But lies always come to an end, and the end is often a backlash.
For example, right now, players are using their own built-in construct cameras (which can record everything they see and hear) to upload all of Israel's actions in Palestine in high definition and without any censorship to the internet. In other places, where internet infrastructure is not as developed as Xinhua's, the truth is spreading more slowly, but in Xinhua, it has already caused a huge uproar.
So this is what Israel is like!
Actually, a long time ago, during our time as teachers, Xinhua had already held marches in support of Palestine. At that time, we had already broken down information barriers, learned the truth, and chose to stand on the side of justice.
However, for various reasons, the truth was later concealed. But with more powerful technology, this barrier was completely shattered and revealed to everyone in a more tragic way.
It was arguably the most devastating massacre of the 20th century, and it is likely to continue into the 21st century.
Israel's carefully constructed wall of public opinion has thus collapsed.
Hassan, a very common name in Pakistan, was once a Hamas fighter in his home world. In his own words, "I am a survivor, walking on the path paved by my fallen comrades."
After the destruction of Israel, the homeland of the world, Zionism was purged. The purge was so severe that no one dares to call themselves Jewish anymore. Furthermore, no country allows Jewish families to gather in groups of more than two households. They were completely dispersed and separated, with adults and children educated separately. This nation, which had wandered for two thousand years, finally no longer had to wander; they simply disappeared.
It's alright, it's better than being completely wiped out. Considering what the Jews have done, this is a rather gentle ending.
Hassan's battle was over. He returned to his hometown, picked up the pieces of the wreckage, and worked alongside the survivors for a better new life.
Gradually, the former warrior grew old, but when he heard about what was happening in Palestine in another world, his anger immediately surged up without diminishing in the slightest.
Yes, I still can't forgive those beasts.
My old comrades, let us charge once more!
Section 42: After wandering for over two thousand years, you should reflect on your actions.
Here's a joke: Israel is a nation of soldiers.
That's exactly what they advertised, but the cost of having the whole nation in arms is no joke. It requires not only organization but also historical foundation. If the Jews were truly so militarily virtuous, they wouldn't have been wandering for over two thousand years.
Therefore, the real Israel is more of a filler force than a so-called elite force. Even more absurdly, Israel was at its most effective when the left-wing forces within its army were at their strongest.
Ironically, the right-wing conservative forces in Israel have successfully excluded the left-wing forces and rendered their own grassroots organizations ineffective, much like Chiang Kai-shek.
When these right-wingers get carried away with their self-destructive behavior, their actions are all so similar.
A specter, a ghost of imprisonment, haunts the skies over Israel.
After the end of the Fourth Arab-Israeli War, Israel's military strength entered a period of decline. This was because Egypt, the leading Arab country, backed down. Iran, on the other hand, is Persian, not Arab. It can only be linked to Arab countries in terms of religious sects, but it lacks the prestige of a leading country.
Who can blame them for not performing so decisively during the Iran-Iraq War? They were even bullied badly by Iraq in the early stages, making them a perfect match for the Middle East region.
With the absence of external threats, internal contradictions naturally became increasingly prominent. The Zionist and right-wing forces, represented by the Likud party, began to expand rapidly and soon became the overwhelming force in Israeli politics.
From that day on, Israel closed the door to true peace, choosing instead to use every means to eliminate the local Palestinians, and even to expand outwards, engaging in militaristic and nationalist narratives, treating "Mein Kampf" as a winning formula, and beginning to surge ahead on the path of becoming an enemy of humanity.
If this scene were witnessed by left-wing Israelis who sacrificed their lives for the founding of Israel, they would probably roar on the spot: "Damn it! Nazi dogs, die!"
Those left-wing Jews utterly hated the Nazis, no matter who became one.
Ironically, the homeland they once defended has now become a new Nazi regime.
It's not surprising. After all, the establishment of the Jewish state was illegitimate, and our country's history has repeatedly demonstrated the fate of such dynasties. Could it be that the Jews, who have been wandering for over two thousand years, understand state-building better than we do?
That's the biggest joke in the world.
Fun fact: When Israel was founded, the Soviet Union was the most enthusiastic. Who would have thought that Israel would eventually become the "father" of the United States? What a fascinating father-son relationship!
The only consolation for Israel right now is that their army hasn't degenerated to the level of Coca-Cola soldiers. After all, it's only 1997, and even if it has degenerated, it will take time. At this point, the Israeli army still has some fighting power, but the most capable Israeli soldiers probably can't withstand the player's attrition.
What makes Israel even more vulnerable is that their current media hegemony has not yet reached the level of being able to turn lies into reality, and has a bunch of public intellectuals endorsing them, after the development of the past thirty years since the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Especially Xinhua. You should know that Xinhua is the world's largest producer of public intellectuals. Who can blame us when there are entry requirements for being a public intellectual? If you don't have money, don't know how to use the internet, can't write, or are even illiterate, how can you become a public intellectual? The number of public intellectuals who fawn over Israel in the United States doesn't even equal the number of foreign-worshipping dogs that our country has cultivated in the past thirty years.
But now, this process has been completely interrupted, and those newly emerging public intellectuals are once again enjoying the same treatment as those ten years of dictatorship. Without the fresh blood of the Xinhua public intellectuals, Israel's international prestige has clearly declined considerably.
Articles praising their intelligence have visibly decreased, and Xinhua News Agency won't translate or allow the circulation of books containing such false content. However, it won't ban them; instead, it will publicly expose and dissect them, revealing the true nature of Israel. This approach is far more effective than building walls. In fact, it's almost excessively lenient, but who can blame us when our people have a higher moral standard?
But then again, if we really manage to incite public outrage in our country, it's fine if we don't have the chance, but if we do, we must kill those bastards, even if it's just to reduce the number of disgusting creatures in the world we live in in the future.
"Now's the time! Make your move!"
A TOW anti-tank missile, under the player's control, accurately hit the Merkava tank, infuriating it. Unfortunately, the Trophy Active Protection System hasn't been developed yet; the Israeli Merkava at this point is simply a composite armor structure. The outcome is entirely up to God (God: guess who betrayed Jesus)).
After World War II, the situation of offense and defense became one of offense overwhelming defense. Main battle tanks that were targeted by anti-tank missiles could only hope for the best.
You asked if flares are effective?
Yes, but what if the enemy had seven anti-tank missiles locked onto you from all angles? How would you respond?
The biggest benefit of the players to the resistance organizations across Palestine is not their strong fighting power, but their access to massive resources anytime, anywhere. Weapons and ammunition are no longer a bottleneck, which greatly accelerates the development and growth of the Palestinian resistance organizations. The former Palestinian resistance members among the players are very familiar with how to bully the Israeli army, and there are even quite a few Jews who have joined them.
Fun fact: Those Jews who truly believe in communism do not acknowledge their Jewish identity.
It's really shameless. Jews are recognized through maternal lineage. In other words, it doesn't matter whether you consider yourself Jewish or not. As long as a Jew finds an opportunity and you have a big enough reputation, then you are considered Jewish. Those big capitalists who define Jews are all quite clever guys.
Only by moving away from ethnic narratives and analyzing from the perspective of class narratives can we truly understand what Jews are.
They can no longer be called an organization, but rather puppets of capital, representatives of new capitalist forces, like lackeys who have made a pact with the devil. They have long since transcended the concept of race and become concepts of faith and capital.
What a cunning method of infiltration and possession! Compared to the Red Ghost, this is the real devilish believer who possesses others.
However, even the most powerful demon needs a vessel; once that vessel disappears, the demon becomes a joke.
Under the players' brutal counterattack, the frequency of attacks on Israel escalated from monthly to hundreds of times a day, a relentless 24-hour bombardment. The enemy could be anywhere, wielding various weapons, fighting them to the death. Israeli soldiers even encountered a Palestinian who lifted a car and threw it at them; an entire company of Israeli soldiers fought desperately, barely managing to kill the attacker with the help of the air force, burying him under rubble, while suffering over [number missing] casualties.
Even those in top condition suffered minor injuries, reaching three digits.
The situation at the front was quickly reported to the Prime Minister's office. Netanyahu was furious, the Likud party was furious, and the entire Jewish right wing was furious, all accusing it of being a terrorist attack.
"The so-called partition of India and Pakistan was, from the very beginning, a forced concession by Western countries of Palestinians to their rightful living space. Can Israel, using land deeds from over two thousand years ago, declare that area its homeland? What a joke!"
Ambassador Li Ba's speech at the UN General Assembly was full of aggression and sarcasm. Wait a minute, didn't NATO, led by Huawei, withdraw from the UN?
Yes, it withdrew, but at the strong invitation of the other four permanent members of the UN Security Council, Xinhua still enjoys a permanent seat and has a veto right.
Quiet down, I'm grilling.
Don't be surprised; as long as you have the strength to break the rules, the rules will make way for you.
Thus, Xinhua instantly created three world firsts: the first permanent member of the UN Security Council not to hold a seat on the Security Council, the first permanent member to withdraw from the UN but still retain veto power, and the first country to remain a permanent member even after withdrawing from the UN. This is the magic of politics, full of the art of compromise.
So when Xinhua spoke, other countries listened attentively, their attitudes very respectful. Israel, naturally, was very dissatisfied and began protesting at the United Nations. Their complaints were nothing more than how miserable the Jewish people were, how they were persecuted, how they finally had a new homeland, only to have terrorists emerge around them, and how Xinhua, as a major power, was making things difficult for them—where was their conscience? Where was humanity's justice and fairness?
"Axioms? Justice? I'm really curious, when did the relationship between Jewish big capitalists and ordinary Jews become so close? When Hitler purged the Jews, you Jewish big capitalists didn't suffer any losses. You even went to America and made a fortune. Have some shame!"
After saying this, Ambassador Li Ba opened the Xinhua-style projection interface and began to publicly broadcast various classified documents from World War II.
These are all documents that have been declassified in the local world, but in the Eighth World, not many people know about them. Or rather, through the deliberate manipulation of Jewish financial groups, they have successfully integrated themselves into the Jewish community, portraying the suffering of ordinary Jewish people as if they were also unlucky and victims. Their method of confusing the public is truly ingenious.
But sophistry cannot prevail over the truth, and lies cannot suppress the facts.
When Xinhua broadcast these materials at the United Nations in front of representatives from around the world, the Israeli representative fainted on the spot.
He was so angry that he was rushed to the emergency room, but Ambassador Li Ba didn't care. After playing the materials, he stood up and said, "Justice resides in the hearts of the people. Everyone knows what Israel is, what Jews are, what justice is, and what righteousness is. I hope some people will not follow the old path of Nazi Germany."
Section 43: A loaf of bread worth 500,000 marks? It's a loaf of bread worth 420 billion marks!
Xinhua's propaganda offensive almost instantly shattered the illusion surrounding Jews—or more accurately, the illusion that Jewish leaders had cultivated after World War II, a illusion that portrayed them as victims. How shameless! What do they have to complain about? Hitler massacred Jews, yet he maintained close cooperation with the Jewish elite. Even during Nazi Germany's rise, before the US declared war, business between the two sides was booming. Did they really think Germany could rise from nothing without any external assistance?
Even a simple Baidu search for information on pre-World War II trade between Germany and the United States, as well as the proportion of investment and profits reaped by Jewish capitalists, reveals that the United States and its Jewish capitalists bear at least one major responsibility for the outbreak of World War II. In percentage terms, their actions since World War I are enough to make them bear more than half of the historical responsibility and half of the current responsibility.
500,000 marks worth of bread?
Hahaha, what a joke you're making! That's 4200 billion marks worth of bread.
The speech given by the man with the mustache in the movie only glorifies the greed of Jewish capital.
It is pitiful that ordinary Jews, who have actually assimilated into the local population and even forgotten their Jewish identity, are the sacrifices of Jewish big capital during the world wars.
Class struggle is effective as soon as it is grasped.
The proletarian advantage in Xinhua is now completely overwhelming, almost like returning to the era of teachers. For many elderly people, this is the era they are most familiar with. Now, with both spiritual and material support, it is an even happier and more wonderful era.
And this united proletarian force will ultimately become an iron fist wielded against the exploiters.
Of course, as beneficiaries, Western capital with interests tied to Jewish big capital will definitely continue to whitewash these Jews, because the victimhood is too useful, so useful that they themselves have started to claim to be Jewish. If this were back to the era of class narrative, then every single one of them would be left to wander under the streetlights.
This is why our class narrative weakened after the collapse of the Soviet Union. After all, the mainstream international order is capitalism. To survive, we must disguise our identity and not give our enemies too much pressure. Only when we truly have the power to overturn the table can we consider taking over and reaping the benefits.
Other countries see great powers as alliances of alliances, but we see them as a single nation challenging the entire world.
Jackals roam in packs, while tigers roam the world alone.
Xinhua in World 8 originally did not possess this power, at least not in the short term. However, Qin Shan's arrival forcibly elevated Xinhua to a higher dimension, turning the situation into a dimensional reduction attack. In addition, with domestic problems completely cleared up, the players who could not be bribed supervised the entire national machinery and could cause trouble everywhere, allowing Xinhua to talk to any country in the manner of Jotaro Sai.
That's exactly the kind of domineering presence befitting a Han envoy; Ambassador Li Ba truly lives up to his name.
I am your father, so if you disagree, just keep quiet.
So how effective has the Western countries' efforts at whitewashing been?
It's not perfect, but it's completely ineffective.
One undeniable reality is that the upper and lower classes of the Western world are completely separated, and the middle class is also in a semi-separated state. Moreover, no one with a conscience can remain unmoved after seeing photos of Israel massacring children.
It was 1997, only 52 years after the end of World War II. Many of the elderly people from that time were still alive, and those who were educated by these elderly people and the generation from World War II were even more alive, still the pillars of society. Do you think that after seeing these things, they would think about what Nazi Germany did back then?
The Germans, in particular, were so impressed by the 4200 billion euro bread offer that they accelerated the operation of their soap factories.
Before World War II, anti-Semitism was politically correct in Europe. Now, the actions of the Jews have reminded Europeans of the glory of their ancestors and made them understand why their forefathers had rejected them.
Europeans also have a system of ancestral selection. Why do you think Jews wandered the world? Was it because they didn't like establishing a nation?
In addition, the LGBT movement was not yet widespread in the Western world at that time, so after the wave of opposition was raised, it was boiling from the United States to Europe, and it could even be said that the entire America (both North and South) was boiling. The protests of the lower classes almost instantly overwhelmed the Israeli embassies in various countries.
"This is a crime, a crime against the vulnerable! We are innocent!"
The Israeli representative roared in protest at the UN General Assembly, completely forgetting how he had been knocked unconscious earlier.
They are truly panicking now. Don't forget, the Western world today is basically governed by electoral politics. Once the votes force those in power to stop supporting Israel, then facing a united front from all the Middle Eastern countries, Israel's fate will be far worse than that of Russia after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
