      XPost: uk.legal, soc.culture.jewish, alt.revisionism       XPost: alt.true-crime       From: void@invalid.noy              by Eric S. Margolis 2024              March 4, 2024              Good work, Mr. President Biden. You have managed to do what America’s       enemies have not – creating widespread hatred for the United States       around the globe. Your destruction of the Gaza refugee camps has       inflamed antisemitism everywhere.              There is widespread disgust and anger at the US government over your       decision to give Israel’s new far right government carte blanche to       massacre rebellious Palestinians in the open prison of the Gaza Strip.       The death toll is now over 31,000 killed and at least 70,000 seriously       injured, not counting the long-term effects of malnutrition and even       starvation. Most victims are women and children.              All of Gaza’s hospitals have been wrecked by Israeli bombs and tank       fire. The Biden administration has thoughtfully rushed tank shells to       Israel’s armored forces. Large stores of arms and supplies, supposedly       provided by the US to Israel for an emergency situation, have been       offered up to Israel to continue its massacre of Gaza. Such action       violates US law – which bars the use of US-supplied arms against       civilians. Dropping 2,000 lbs bombs on residential buildings is,       according to Israeli spin doctors, ‘counterterrorism.’ The rest of the       world does not think so.              Except of course the US, Canada and Britain, where the media is       totally dominated by supporters of Israel’s now governing far right.       And Washington, which is paralyzed by pre-election fever. Palestinian       ‘terrorists’ are purposely running into Israeli tanks, shells and       bombs just to discredit Israel. Big money financial donors are       terrorizing major US and British educational institutions. Writers who       dare challenge Israel’s party line on Gaza are blacklisted. Those       honorable Jews who denounce Israel’s brutal policies in Gaza are       denounced as ‘self-hating Jews.’              We are not told that Gaza’s terrified civilians originally came from       areas around Gaza and Galilee from whence they were driven into the       prison camp of Gaza from their historic homes by ethnic cleansing and       massacres after 1948. Their lands were seized by the Israeli       government or far-right settlers, many from the US.              As yet, we know little about the alleged massacre of some 1,000       Israelis attending a music festival on former Arab lands. I know this       region fairly well after visiting the kibbutz of Nahal Oz in the       1950’s to meet relatives and see how Israel was allegedly making once       supposedly barren lands flower and blossom. There were no such people       as Palestinians, according to Israel’s then prime minister, who       herself hailed from Ukraine.              Israel’s governing far right – was described by the late, great       Israeli writer Uri Avnery as ‘Jewish fascists.’ They clearly intend to       grind Gaza and its people into dust. There are large numbers of       Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, some of whom were gunned down       this week. The objective of Israel’s far right is to expel these Arabs       from the entire West Bank that Israel seized in the 1967 War and shove       them into the arid Jordanian desert. Israel has long had its eye on       southern Lebanon and its Litani River waters.              ‘Don’t worry what Washington will say,’ said the architect of this       mess, the late General Ariel Sharon. ‘I control Washington.’ True       enough, as Biden and his party are showing. Wall Street donors have       become more important than America’s geopolitical interests.              Interestingly, the likely winner of the upcoming US presidential       election, Donald Trump, is an even stauncher supporter of Israel. But       even many Democrats don’t trust his fidelity to Israel even though he       openly dislikes Arabs and Muslims. Trump appears to have a clearer       idea of where America’s interests lie – he may not allow Israel to       lead America around by the nose.              Israel’s North American partisans keep running old films about the       Holocaust to help justify their laying waste to Gaza. We ought to       remember there were less than half the numbers of Jews in the besieged       Warsaw Ghetto than there are today Palestinians in Gaza.              Americans should be ashamed of Biden. His administration, infiltrated       and directed by far-right neocons, does not represent America’s values       or traditions. Gaza will remain a major crime as well as a dark stain       in America’s honor.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
