Chabad named as 'head of the Illuminati snake,' the old story of a hidden Jewish hand told outright.
The war with Iran kept the Strait of Hormuz closed this week, and drones launched from Iraq hit Saudi Arabia's East-West crude pipeline on September 10 and 11. Alongside the fighting, 4chan /pol/ threads talked of a "Jewish-American war with Iran" and described Putin, Trump, Netanyahu and Orban as one "Chabad Axis". Chabad is a Jewish religious movement. On September 8, HenryMakow posted on X: "Chabad, a Jewish supremacist doomsday cult is head of the Illuminati snake." The post puts a Jewish movement at the top of a secret body said to run the world, and offers no event or act behind the sentence. It drew 11,353 views.
Calling a Jewish religious movement the head of a world-controlling secret body is the hidden hand story, the claim that Jewish people secretly run everything, told with a specific name filled in. It makes Jewish people the agent behind whatever the reader already fears, and it treats the religion itself as the plot. Nothing in the sentence is about anything anyone did.
The word head settles it. A cult on the fringe would be one more group; the head of the snake is the thing in charge, and the snake is the world's hidden government. A fair-minded reader should take the post as the conspiracy claim about Jewish people in its plainest form, with a real community of worshippers put in the role.
