In Jewish tradition the Golem is a robot created by the Jews to serve the
chosen people and their tribal interests.
The best known story of the Golem is of Rabbi Judah Loew ben Bezalel, called
the Maharal of Prague (1513-1609). It is said that the Maharalcreated a Golem
out of clay to protect the Jews from blood libel and to help Jews comply with
requirements for physical labour.
The Golem has made it to Israel. By now, the Palestinians are accustomed to
being watched constantly by a score of Israeli flying Golem or ‘kosher
drones.'
Yesterday we learned that the World Zionist Organization (WZO) has invested in
a new cyber Golem designed to spy on all of us. Sniper, the new Golem will
scan the net using a new algorithm, looking for anti-Jewish content.
The new Golem will search for certain keywords in different languages. A crew
of WZO members will monitor the results, and react immediately. Once an
offender is detected, the WZO will either contact authorities in the offending
party's country or, alternatively, send a flying Golem to track the suspected
Jew hater.
The Sniper Golem "will create deterrence," say the entrepreneurs behind it,
"it won't be so easy to publish a status calling for the murder of Jews."
In my years of activity as a writer and researcher I have never come across a
single ‘status' calling for the ‘murder of Jews.' This appears to be a severe
manifestation of collective Jewish pre Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PRE TSD)
hovering on the verge of psychosis.
The new Golem is set for launch on Sunday, during a WZO conference aimed at
combating anti-Semitism in the modern era, which will be attended by Israel's
Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon and Knesset Speaker MK Yuli Edelstein. In
short, if you planned to publish a ‘murderous status', hurry up, only three
days left.
