Josef Goebbels’ propaganda method is alive and well. The big lie theory (attributed to Goebbels but possibly having originated with Hitler) goes like this: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” It truly doesn’t matter who came up with the idea, since both Goebbels and Hitler were evil enough to implement it towards the “Final Solution to the Jewish Question.”
Fast-forward to 2026, and the methodology remains the same, except that the big lie has become a series of big lies building upon each other to further demonize Israel and the Jews.
It has been a progressive indoctrination of the masses that started not too long after the birth of the modern state of Eretz Yisrael on May 14, 1948. It can be divided into four false accusations in this order: Colonization, Occupation, Apartheid, and Genocide. Each of these lies sets the stage for the next one to further demonize and delegitimize Israel and Diaspora Jews. Why are they being propagated, and more importantly, how can they be debunked historically, geo-politically AND biblically?
The Balfour Declaration is a document that should have been foundational in the world’s recognition of Israel’s right for self-determination within the boundaries of her own historical and biblical land of Eretz Yisrael. It was followed by another equally important but lesser-known agreement, including the original Balfour text, known as the San Remo Resolution, where the Mandate for Palestine was drawn together as a legal document (land boundaries were decided four years later) As a result of the San Remo Resolution being drafted, Great Britain ended up being responsible for the drawing of the Mandate and land boundaries for Palestine.
The word then was not as politically charged as it is today, and it certainly didn’t describe stolen land by Jews. In fact, much of this swampy, mosquito-infested land of Israel was owned by absentee owners from the Ottoman Empire and was purchased by Jews for a lot of money. On May 14, 1948, under the leadership of David Ben Gurion, one day before the end of the British Mandate, Israel became a modern nation. Within hours, five neighboring Arab countries declared war on the newborn Jewish state, and Israel has been in a state of war ever since.
Lord Balfour understood the connection between the people and the land. The biblical precedent is even stronger when we consider all that God’s counsel has to say about Israel beyond the commonly accepted right to the land through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (Genesis 12:1-3, 15:18-21, 17:7-8, 25:5-6, 26;3, 28:3-4, 35:9-15.) Consider these truths from the Bible:
1. Jacob’s descendants would regain control of Israel – Amos 9:14-15
2. Israel would be brought back to life – Ezekiel 37:10-14
3. Isaiah spoke of an Israel being reborn in one day – Isaiah 66:7-8
4. Israel would be re-established as a united nation – Ezekiel 37:21-22
5. The second Israel would be more impressive than the first – Jeremiah 16:14-15
6. Ezekiel predicted when Israel would be re-established – Ezekiel 4:3-6
7. The people of Israel would return to “their land” – Ezekiel 34:13
8. God would watch over the people of Israel – Jeremiah 31:10
9. Israel’s army would be disproportionately powerful – Leviticus 26:3, 7-8
10. The fortunes of the people of Israel would be restored – Deuteronomy 30:3-5
Just when we thought that after the evil carnage by Hamas on October 7, 2023, the world would finally acknowledge Israel as being the victim and not the perpetrator, the opposite took place. This was facilitated by the Big Lies conditioning that continues to this day. This accusation of colonization was the first step, but it was only the beginning of a “Big Lies” campaign “à la Goebbels.”
