My name is Shely Mustaki. For me, like 70% of the Jews under the Zionist Ashkenazi (a group from Europe) regime in the Israeli colony in the Middle East, there has never been a democracy during its 75 years of existence. But first of all, to understand this, you need to know that society in Israel’s colony in the Middle East is divided into two: Jews who were already in the Middle East and Africa, and the newcomers, the colonialists, the Ostjuden, Jews from Europe, the Zionists, those who established Rothschild colony in the 19th century, that was the first seed of the Zionist project in the Middle East, which became latter in 1948 an official quasi-state after the occupation of Palestine.

Israel was not a democracy when my grandfather, Yitzhak Mostaki (and a relative of Georges Moustaki), was manipulated to immigrate from Egypt to the colony of Israel in the 1950s with false promises about the land of the Jews where the Jews prosper And with terror, such as planting bombs to get the authorities to deport them, like other Jews in the Arab countries.[1] Nor when He’d tried to join the leftist party[2] during the 1960s and was rejected, the same party that until recently has stayed almost 100% clean: only for Zionists, the Ostjuden (Jews from Europe) Ashkenazi—a closed club, more than a party.

It was not a democracy when my father, whose the Zionist terrorism destroyed his community in Morocco that had existed for hundreds of years, arrived in the settlement in the and was forced to live in a tent for ten years near a dump while watching the immigrants from Europe leaving after a short while, and when he asked why, he was told: first Jews from Europe; And not during the 1970s, when he was a member of the Black Panthers (of Israel),[3] who protested against discrimination[4] and racism[5] and they were branded and framed as criminals and collaborators;[6] and nor when they attempted to negotiate with the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO)[7]in the 1980s and were sent to prison.[8]

But my turning point was in 2011. I began my quest to uncover the true identity of Israel, the hidden force of Zionism that orchestrated all those movements, during the Occupy Wall Street demonstrations in Tel Aviv in 2011. Because during times of political unrest, the hidden workings of various groups are brought to light.

The beggining of my journy

I was born in 1976 and raised in Kiryat Mozkin, a small town near Haifa, in the northern part of the Israeli colony. And because my parents immigrated from Arab countries (Egypt and Morocco) in the 1950s, at 14, I was sent to study to become a secretary under the Zionist regime, but I found it uninteresting and instead opted for self-education. In 2004, I moved to Tel Aviv city to pursue a career in journalism. Until 2011, I mainly focused on writing about cultural topics such as literature, cinema, and the arts.

In 2011, I witnessed the hijacking of protests by Zionists who staged a fake show involving media, academia, military, culture, and high-tech sectors. The charade was funded by public money and Zionist benefactors. However, when I tried to publish my findings, I realized that non-mainstream media was under censorship too.

In 2014, after the brutal attack on Gaza, I realized there had never been a true democracy, opposition, or any left or liberal party in charge. The Labor Zionism Party had been the only one in power, preventing people from living peacefully. I decided to leave but waited until my son finished high school. He refused to serve in the army and was imprisoned instead. Finally 2017, I moved and now reside in Quebec, Canada.

The core of my research will be launched in a book to be published in early 2024 and offered for free.
