… oh it is in your face, more or less, on alternative websites, over at Telegram, but the monsters are not just bikini-wearing Zionists with shiny AR-15’s and banana clips

The murderers are many, not just the Zionist Racists Encapsulated in their AmeriKKKan tanks:

Oh, it is not just Jews or Jews-Wannabe’s:

Or the Schumer Slime or Biden Viruses:

Graphs: Stephen Semler is cofounder of Security Policy Reform Institute, a grassroots-funded US foreign policy think tank.

Now now, these are lies of omission, because the military budgets listed and the workers accounted for and all of that is a sham.

REPEAT: Universities, colleges, junior colleges, bolts-burgers-bytes-bridges-buttons-bread, and now go through A to Z and find all the stuff, all the retail stuff, all the stuff made with/by/for/in oil, and then take it all out to the maximum arena — how much does a tank cost beyond the unit cost? Beyond this? Although the total cost of a single four-person Abrams tank can change, the figure can top $10 million per unit when training and maintenance is factored in, according to data from Reuters. The tanks, part of a new $400 million package, will be purchased through the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative.

Beyond the singular price:

Think of the embedded/embodied energy and engrained/enabled hell on earth these machines produce? Think of all the PR and legal firms, all the contract law firms, all the civil servants and their lobbying friends and all the countless human lifetimes wasted on rationalizing for these machines. Forget about just one child throwing one stone at this one monster machine, and the value we should be putting on his lifetime in that fucking open air concentration camp, Gaza, or anywhere?

You pasty faced Five Eyes and Israel Eye loving putrid zombies, you think you want your grandchildren in Madison, Wisconsin, or Peoria, Illinois having a tank, or entire battalion of tanks, rumbling down your kids’ streets, in their school parking lots, and how about a little target practice over at the Catholic Cemetary?

That’s right, Israel, with trillions from USA struggling fucking taxpayers, has their own TANK: [Merkava … Major contractors include: the El Op Electro-Optic Industries subsidiary of Elbit Systems which is responsible for the fire control system; the Israel Defence Force which carries out main construction and system integration and testing; Israel Military Industries for the supply of the main gun, ballistic protection and munitions; Imco Industries for the electrical systems; Urdan Industries for the hull, main turret and castings; and IAI Ramta for protection components.

The main part of the tank production, the construction of the hull and integration of all the systems is carried out in the Israel Defence Force workshop.]

$3.5 million (Merkava IV) (for delivery to the IDF) $4.5 million (Merkava IV) (2014 price for sales to other countries)

This morning we woke up to a painful message from our Arabic translator in Gaza.

This is an excerpt:

“Nothing that happens here is reassuring.

I left my home and took refuge in another place in search of safety, but even the new place is not safe: there is no electricity, no water, no food, no internet, and no security.

My cousin and two of my students were killed, danger still looms, and the smell of death emanates from everywhere.

I cannot guarantee that I will see your response to my message, as I may have been killed too. I hope that you will always remember me.

Please help spread the truth: they target innocent people, and falsely claim that they are targeting Hamas, and that Hamas takes innocent people and civilians as human shields.

What Hitler did to them, they are now doing to us.

I hope that I will live until this nightmare ends and one day I will be able to tell you that I am fine.”

Another poet, alive:

The Palestinian Nakba — or catastrophe — happened decades ago, but the people of Palestine continue to suffer under Israeli colonialism, asserts writer and poet Mohammed El-Kurd. Following the air strikes of May 2021, the people of Gaza City have had their homes destroyed or occupied, facing homelessness and heartbreak. But change is still possible, says El-Kurd, as people protest and pressure their leaders to act. In a moving speech at the UN’s event for the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, he called for justice, liberation and a free Palestine in his lifetime.

Watch Mohammed take apart the dirty white ugly Anglo Saxon putridity:

Ahh, the Chuck Schumer and Kamala Emhoff shit hole, their fucking Isra-HELL:

The State of Israel was conceived at the turn of the 20th century in Eastern Europe by a group of elite European Jews who launched a movement called Zionism that sought to establish a physical nation state exclusive to Jews. It was a typical settler colonial enterprise, complete with the narrative of a divine mandate and a non-existent or savage indigenous population, central to which was the myth that Jews of the world formed a singular people, favored by God, who were returning to their singular place of origin – Palestine – after a three thousand year absence.

Although it was a project conceived in Europe by Europeans and for European Jews, they lacked sufficient numbers to build a population large enough to conquer the indigenous Palestinian population. Thus, recruitment of Jews from the surrounding Arab world was a necessary inconvenience. They did so through propaganda and by creating false flag terror incidents (bombing of synagogues or Jewish centres) in order provoke an exodus of Arab Jews. A prime example of this happened in Iraq, where the oldest Jewish community in the world had lived for millennia as contributing members of Iraqi society, and who prospered, contributed to the arts and the economy, and participated in government. 

But these Jews were not embraced as brethren by European Zionists. Zionism was decidedly colonial, and that meant that Jews of the Arab world were seen as incomplete, barbaric, dirty, uncivilised. Za’ev Jabotinsky, one of the forefathers of Zionism said, “We Jews have nothing in common with what is called the Orient, thank God. To the extent that our uneducated masses [Arab Jews] have ancient spiritual traditions and laws that call the Orient, they must be weaned away from them, and this is in fact what we are doing in every decent school, what life itself is doing with great success. We are going in Palestine, first for our national convenience, [second] to sweep out thoroughly all traces of the Oriental soul.”

Watch it: Israel’s Great Divide — LINK

Are Jews of Middle Eastern, North African and Spanish descent discriminated against in Israel?

Israel is a nation of immigrants, and first-generation Israelis comprise only 32 percent of the population.

Integration into Israeli society has been one of its main political goals and, under the leadership of founding prime minister David Ben-Gurion, Israel was going to be “the great Jewish melting pot”, but it has come under severe strain almost since its inception in 1948.

The schools, K12, the lunch counters, the bars, the Walmarts, all those endless Zombie Citizens of the Homo Retail-Consumopithecus Variety, all things in our material and daily exchanges ARE LIES.

The military industrial complex is the ENTIRE shooting match, in the USA. In Churches, at Family Unions, EVERYWHERE.

Here, a book I am recommending for my memoir-writing class:

Or, here, two Jews talking about GAZA: Miko Peled On Israel’s GENOCIDAL War On Gaza

On George Soros Big Pharma Goodman’s Democracy Now:

I honestly do not know what to tell you. It feels to me as though we are living in the very first few days of an unfolding genocide. I mean, not only are Israeli politicians and journalists alike and global forces calling for the annihilation of the Gaza Strip, for bombing it into the Stone Ages, declaring that they are interested in inflicting damage and not really precision, but these images that we are — these images that we are seeing coming outside of the Gaza Strip are so harrowing and devastating that one wonders — one wonders how much bloodshed, how much Palestinian death is necessary for people to realize that violence begets violence and that the occupation and the colonization of Palestine, the blockade of the Gaza Strip needs to end for all of this violence to end.

I mean, I am incredibly angered that word-of-mouth, unverified reports of, quote-unquote, “rape and decapitation,” which obviously draw on Islamophobic tropes, have garnered more and more political and global outrage than those very images, than a video of a nurse announcing and screaming in distress that her husband has been killed in an Israeli airstrike. And, you know, the PR strategy of the Israeli regime throughout all of this has been to invoke those Islamophobic sentiments, like calling it Israel’s — quote-unquote, “Israel’s 9/11.” And media outlets and journalists who have taken on this framing without any questioning not only work to equate the violence of a besieged, politically isolated group like Hamas with the violence of al-Qaeda and ISIS and so on, but they are also doing the dirty work for Israelis. They are preemptively justifying the genocide of hundreds and thousands of Palestinians. They are justifying a brutal onslaught that is about to come globally. And that should be alarming.

I mean, we have seen this unfold during 9/11. We have seen this unfold in history, the utilization of Islamophobia, the dehumanization, the constant dehumanizations of Palestinians, the refusal to see them as human beings who have the right to resist and to defend themselves and to be angry and to want the right to self-determination and to not want to live in siege anymore. All of this refusal to see all of this is contributing, is contributing to this oncoming onslaught, where Israeli politicians can just call Palestinians “human animals,” can just say that they are not really concerned with saving anyone, can threaten to bomb aid envoys coming in from Egypt. This should be concerning to everybody around the world. It is terrifying times we are living in.

JUAN GONZÁLEZ: And this whole issue [inaudible] hostage situation, as well. Hamas has reported that in one of the bombing attacks, some of the hostages were killed along with those Hamas militants who were guarding them. What do you think the Israeli government posture will continue to be on this issue of the hostages?

MOHAMMED EL-KURD: I mean, so far Hamas has said that they are willing to release all of the female detainees, if Israel is going to release the 36 Palestinian female prisoners currently lingering in Israeli prisons, but the Israeli government has refused to negotiate. In fact, Israeli ministers, like Smotrich, have said that they could not care less about the hostages, and their goal is to inflict as much damage as possible on the besieged Gaza Strip.

And I also want us to get one thing correctly: Holding 2 million people under blockade is a very serious hostage situation. This is what we’re dealing with, the fact that the Israeli regime has been holding Palestinians in Gaza as hostages to exert political pressure on groups like Hamas. The fact that a quarter, 25%, of Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli prison are held without detention — are held without trial or charges is a hostage situation. The fact that even in death, Palestinian corpses are held in mortuary chambers to be used as bargaining chips is a hostage situation. But time and time again, we are shown by the world its double standards. We are told that the only violence that matters is the violence inflicted upon Israelis, and the only lives that matter are the lives of Israelis. Palestinians have been living as hostages for the past 16 years in this blockade. That must, must end. And it is incumbent upon us as journalists to make this context clear.

A de-zionised, liberated and democratic Palestine from the river to the sea; a Palestine that will welcome back the refugees and build a society that does not discriminate on the basis of culture, religion or ethnicity. 

This new state would labor to rectify, as much as possible, the past evils, in terms of economic inequality, the stealing of property and the denial of rights. This could herald a new dawn for the whole Middle East.

It is not always easy to stick to your moral compass, but if it does point north – towards decolonization and liberation – then it will most likely guide you through the fog of poisonous propaganda, hypocritical policies and the inhumanity, often perpetrated in the name of ‘our common Western values’. (Ilan Pappe)

Fuck these monsters:

Here, from Scott Ritter, and he will be further emblazoned with the racist and anti-Semite labels:

Moshe Dyan, the Israeli Chef of Staff, was in attendance, and delivered a eulogy which has gone down in Israeli history as one of the defining speeches of the nation. “Early yesterday morning,” Dyan began, his voice carrying over the crowd of mourners, “Roi was murdered. The quiet of the spring morning dazzled him and he did not see those waiting in ambush for him, at the edge of the furrow.”

Let us not cast the blame on the murderers today. Why should we declare their burning hatred for us? For eight years they have been sitting in the refugee camps in Gaza, and before their eyes we have been transforming the lands and the villages where they and their fathers dwelt, into our estate.

It is not among the Arabs in Gaza, but in our own midst that we must seek Roi’s blood. How did we shut our eyes and refuse to look squarely at our fate, and see, in all its brutality, the destiny of our generation? Have we forgotten that this group of young people dwelling at Nahal Oz is bearing the heavy gates of Gaza on its shoulders?

Beyond the furrow of the border, a sea of hatred and desire for revenge is swelling, awaiting the day when serenity will dull our path, for the day when we will heed the ambassadors of malevolent hypocrisy who call upon us to lay down our arms.

Roi’s blood is crying out to us and only to us from his torn body. Although we have sworn a thousandfold that our blood shall not flow in vain, yesterday again we were tempted, we listened, we believed.

We will make our reckoning with ourselves today; we are a generation that settles the land and without the steel helmet and the canon’s maw, we will not be able to plant a tree and build a home. Let us not be deterred from seeing the loathing that is inflaming and filling the lives of the hundreds of thousands of Arabs who live around us. Let us not avert our eyes lest our arms weaken.

This is the fate of our generation. This is our life’s choice—to be prepared and armed, strong, and determined, lest the sword be stricken from our fist and our lives cut down.

The young Roi who left Tel Aviv to build his home at the gates of Gaza to be a wall for us was blinded by the light in his heart and he did not see the flash of the sword. The yearning for peace deafened his ears and he did not hear the voice of murder waiting in ambush. The gates of Gaza weighed too heavily on his shoulders and overcame him.

The speech is notable for its open recognition of the hatred of Israel on the part of the Palestinians imprisoned in Gaza, as well as the source of their hatred, and understanding regarding the legitimacy of the Palestinian emotions.

But it is also unapologetic about the righteousness of the Israeli cause, regardless of the legitimacy of the Palestinian cause. Israel, Dyan said, cannot be settled without the “steel helmet and canon’s maw.” War, he said, was Israel’s “life choice,” and as such Israel was condemned to a life of militarized diligence, “lest the sword be stricken from our fist and our lives cut down.” (Why I no longer stand with Israel, and never will again)

Ritter came late to the party, and he and I are on opposite sides of so many things, even though I have been around military longer than he has, and fuck my own background in the Army. I have always been a socialist (age 13), a communist for 40 years. But late to the party — i.e. supporting Palestine — is much better than the genocidal mentality of the Empire. The irony is he says he stood with Israel?@#$%&.

Oh well, a leather neck Marine comes late to the Party.

[Photo: Palestinian children killed by Israeli bombs, Gaza, October 2023]

And, so, USA accepts how many killed by disease and famine and uncleared landmines, okay with Blood Diamonds, Blood Cell Phones, Blood Electric Vehicles?

The trickling of death caused by Klanada-U$A-EuroTrashLandia-U…inbred…Kingdom-Five Eyes-Isra-Hell, not so dramatic and sick in your face as this, uh?

Over 6,000 guided bombs dropped on Gaza. Six days, 1,000 bombs dropped, on a 5 by 25 strip of land. No Smart Fucking Bombs there. Total implosion of babies, children, pregnant women, men, old, young, disabled, in hospitals.

But again, it’s the USA, the taxpayer, the fucking populaces of the world:

Read this: Gazan Cry to the World

“We are alone. Screaming. Dying. We have never seen such inhumanity, ever. Shame on every country watching us die. Shame on every group, every single person who is doing nothing. France, Germany, every country bans us, does not regard us as human. We are alone. We are legitimate, we are fighting for our homes, for our very life. We have fought for many countries – we fought for you in African, Arabic, European countries– are you fighting for us? We will not live under inequality, with indignity, we will not live under apartheid, colonialism, fascism – we will live with equality and freedom in our own land.

We are fighting to share equally in humanity.

In 30 years we will look you in the eye, and we will know if you stood with us.”

– Majed Abusalama, 13 October, 2023

Oh, those late to the party jar heads no?

Julie Webb-Pullman is a journalist and human rights investigator who lived in Gaza for nine years. She has also lived and written on Cuban, Mexican, Venezuelan and El Salvadorean issues.

What will we respond, how will we answer, now, tomorrow, next year? A genocide is being committed as I write, a genocide of growing proportions under the noses of every corrupt western politician, every African, Asian and Arabic leader, even at the behest of some of them.

Depraved and demented Biden pouring weapons into “Israel” by the planeload, massing gunboats in the Mediterranean to eradicate more, more, more Palestinian women and children. Shameless Sunak, cheering on the slaughter from the sidelines. European countries criminalising anyone daring to stand up in the street and say YA BASTA – or even those saying nothing, just holding a Palestinian flag. The weak and self-interested Arab countries shaking the blood-soaked hands of Palestine’s oppressors without flinching, without a second or even first thought for the now-thousands of Palestinian dead, let alone doing even one concrete thing to prevent more deaths and suffering in the coming minutes, hours, days, weeks…

What can be said, when hospitals, refugee centres, homes and entire streets are being bombed into oblivion? When health, civil defence, media workers are literally dying to do their job? When dozens of entire families have been utterly eradicated from the face of the earth? When “child’s play” is not pick-up-sticks, but “pick up the severed limbs of your friend/mother/sister” following an Israeli air-strike? How are we letting this happen? How are WE letting this happen?

Because we are. We have collectively allowed the cancer of Zionism to metastasise, until it has normalised and its grossness now threatens the very notion of humanity. The tentacles of colonialism and fascism are strangling not only Gaza and Palestine, but also any fanciful western illusions of our “civilisation”: equality, human rights, freedom, dignity.

There is no dignity in standing by while our governments fail to hold the Zionist apartheid state accountable, not only for this current genocide but also for their past atrocities, the impunity for which has led us here. There is no dignity in failing to hold our own governments accountable for their complicity.

There is no equality in insisting that “Israel” has the right to self-defense while denying Palestinians, whether Hamas or otherwise, that same right.

There is no freedom for any of us, until and unless Palestine is also free.

Here, Pappe:

Sanctions! 1,5000,000 — Iraqis.

Fucking Zionist pigs:

One million Afghan children may die from starvation over the next several months, according to the United Nations. Nearly 23 million Afghans are facing “crisis levels of hunger” and 8.7 million are on the “brink of starvation.” This mass hunger has rendered millions of Afghans on the “verge of death,” according to UN Secretary-General António Guterres. Alongside looming mass starvation, Afghans face below-freezing temperatures, severe shortages of life-saving medical supplies, and extreme poverty, making conditions in Afghanistan among the gravest of human rights crises on Earth.

This is not a natural disaster, nor is it the result of conflict internal to Afghanistan. This a human-made humanitarian catastrophe. United States-made, specifically.

These are the numbers and statistics the Blinken Family, the Nuland Family, the Yellen Family, the Garland Family, the Kagan Family and Biden Family LOVE:

More Afghans are poised to die from U.S. sanctions over the next few months alone than have died at the hands of the Taliban and U.S. military forces over the last 20 years combined — by a significant margin.

FUCK THE USA, FUCK CANADA, FUCK EUROPE, FUCK ISRAEL, FUCK UK . . . and FUCK US ALL!
