Israel’s War on Hospitals - Chris Hedges

"Israel is carrying out a campaign to make Gaza uninhabitable. This campaign includes destroying all of Gaza’s hospitals. The message Israel is sending is clear. Nowhere is safe. If you stay you die."

"Israel is not attacking hospitals in Gaza because they are “Hamas command centers.” Israel is systematically and deliberately destroying Gaza’s medical infrastructure as part of a scorched earth campaign to make Gaza uninhabitable and escalate a humanitarian crisis. It intends to force 2.3 million Palestinians over the border into Egypt where they will never return.

Israel has destroyed and nearly emptied the Al Shifa Hospital in Gaza City. The Indonesian Hospital in Beit Lahia is next. Israel is deploying tanks and armored personnel carriers around the hospital and has fired rounds into the building, killing 12 people."

The "Elimination of Hamas" is a Myth - Rabbani

"The elimination of Hamas is unattainable for several reasons. Most importantly, unlike for example ISIS or the European Union, Hamas has – much like the IRA/Sinn Fein or Facebook, in the decades since its establishment in 1988 become deeply rooted within society, and today exists wherever Palestinian communities are to be found. So even if Israel succeeded in eradicating Hamas from the Gaza Strip – or, more accurately, driving it underground – the organization will survive in the West Bank, Lebanon, Jordan, and elsewhere. Indeed, the combined efforts of Israel and the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank since 2007 have yet to succeed in eliminating either its military, political, or social presence. FYI it is now 2023.

Previous campaigns to eradicate Palestinian movements have not only generally failed, but as a rule enhanced their stature. The scale of the current onslaught has catapulted Hamas’s stature to unprecedented levels among Palestinians, and indeed among Arabs and in the Global South more generally. That’s not a challenge that can be resolved by a fleet of F-35s armed with tons of high explosives."

The war in Gaza has been an intense lesson in western hypocrisy. It won’t be forgotten - Nesrine Malik

"And so the past few weeks have been a speeded-up lesson in the illusory nature of international law. Unlike Iraq, it has not taken years for the bodies to pile up, for the evidence to mount and to prove that the venture made no one safer, was merciless and misguided – and ultimately for confidence and trust in political leadership to leach away. Gaza is happening in real time, in some instances livestreamed. The bombardments are so relentless and concentrated that entire families have been wiped out. Thousands have been displaced, dragging their children in makeshift sleds (another harrowing scene). There is also the moral force of the children. Not just their deaths, estimated at up to 6,000 in less than two months, but their orphaning, displacement, and deprivation of food and water in a besieged Gaza that is now, according to Unicef, “the most dangerous place in the world to be a child”.

Humans can be taught to accept an awful lot that does not make sense, but there is a limit to what people can be plausibly told is not possible. Much of consent in politics is secured by popular agreement that there are things that are simply above the average citizen’s pay grade, and even beyond government control. Not being able to persuade “the only democracy in the Middle East” of something that seems plainly obvious, that the horrific events of 7 October cannot be erased by even more horror, is not one of them. The lesson is brutal and short: human rights are not universal and international law is arbitrarily applied."

Why Did JFK Have To Be Removed? - Aaron Good
 
"The real motives for the JFK assassination trace back to World War II and are deeply intertwined with hidden fascist machinery within the US regime. This covertly fascist state was created after Wall Street oligarchs determined that the US should enter the second World War, win the war, and then become a global empire. Keeping with the corporate flavor of the whole project, US elites did not declare a global imperial dominion. Rather, they presented it as an “American Century,” in which the US would provide global leadership over the “free enterprise” system.
 
In practice, the architects of the US Empire knew that America’s New Deal democracy could not deliver the riches of the empire which they sought. While “freedom and democracy” were great ways to sell the American empire to American and global publics, the real architects of the US Empire — men like former CIA director Allen Dulles — knew they would need to rely on lawless violence to make the empire run smoothly. To that end, they rescued literal German, Italian, and Japanese fascists — saving them from the gallows so they could deploy their murderous craft for the new US empire. The creation of the CIA in 1947 gave the covertly fascist apparatus a “forever home” in the new US national security state. The agency subverted and overthrew governments across the world, many of them democratically elected. The American people were blissfully unaware of what their government was secretly doing in their name.
 
After taking office, President Kennedy sought to redirect the US away from global dominance and toward peaceful internationalist cooperation. The problem was that the US Empire had arisen from a consensus in the American oligarchy of corporate wealth. Kennedy may have been very popular with the American public, but he was decidedly unpopular among the .001%, i.e., among the American ultra-rich.
 
It was this oligarchy which had set in motion the creation of the postwar US Empire — and the creation of the covertly fascist arm of the national security state. Under overt fascism, Nazi Germany operated under the “Fuhrer principle” by which the Nazi state could act unilaterally without regard for the rule of law. Since an American “Fuhrer principle” was a non-starter in the US thanks to democratic norms, US oligarchs created a form of clandestine fascism so that US elites could have their cake and eat it too. In other words, by making the state’s lawlessness covert, US leaders could claim to be champions of democracy and the rule of law while also lawlessly running a global empire. On November 22, 1963, those clandestine fascist chickens came home to roost, to paraphrase Malcolm X."

"We need you to help us lobby the Health Secretary and your MP to put pressure on the UK Government to reject the Amendment to Article 59, which reduces the time we will have available to reject future Amendments, BEFORE 1st December 2023.
Failure to do so will mean that we are legally bound by this new, tighter timeframe for rejecting future amendments.
This will be problematic in the very near future, as there are around 300 Amendments to the International Health Regulations which are currently being negotiated and finalised."

UK's 'Zero Emission Mandate' Will Force The Poor To Subsidize The Rich - Climate Change Dispatch

Are your actions far right?

The historical role of the far right under capitalism is to deflect hate against the exploitative oligarchy towards lower classes / immigrants / indigenous people / other countries / other ethnicities / other religions.

It matters little whether those doing this consider themselves "far right". If that is the role they play, they ARE the far right.

Are YOU far right?

"The Occupation of the American Mind"

"Over the past few years, Israel's ongoing military occupation of Palestinian territory and repeated invasions of the Gaza strip have triggered a fierce backlash against Israeli policies virtually everywhere in the world -- except the United States. The Occupation of the American Mind takes an eye-opening look at this critical exception, zeroing in on pro-Israel public relations efforts within the U.S.

Narrated by Roger Waters and featuring leading observers of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and U.S. media culture, the film explores how the Israeli government, the U.S. government, and the pro-Israel lobby have joined forces, often with very different motives, to shape American media coverage of the conflict in Israel's favor. From the U.S.-based public relations campaigns that emerged in the 1980s to today, the film provides a sweeping analysis of Israel's decades-long battle for the hearts, minds, and tax dollars of the American people in the face of widening international condemnation of its increasingly right-wing policies.

Narrated by Roger Waters / Featuring Amira Hass, M.J. Rosenberg, Stephen M. Walt, Noam Chomsky, Rula Jebreal, Henry Siegman, Rashid Khalidi, Rami Khouri, Yousef Munayyer, Norman Finkelstein, Max Blumenthal, Phyllis Bennis, Norman Solomon, Mark Crispin Miller, Peter Hart, and Sut Jhally."

Analysis | A Sickening Debate on Hostages in the Knesset Makes Hamas' Yahya Sinwar Smile

"On this of all days, Israel's minister of national disgrace, Itamar Ben-Gvir whipped out a bill to impose the death penalty on terrorists. Up until now, he had been smart enough to keep quiet during these dark days...

In a grotesque, nauseating, populist show that only Israeli politics could have produced, the families’ representatives were dragged into a vocal dispute with Knesset members from the Otzma Yehudit party...

The families were forced to endure large portions of evil, hardheartedness, indifference and unbelievable cynicism (all wrapped, of course, in shopworn clichés, crocodile tears and sanctimonious hypocrisy). On this of all days, our minister of national disgrace, Itamar Ben-Gvir, who had previously been smart enough to keep quiet during these dark days, whipped out a bill to impose the death penalty on terrorists.

The bill was originally submitted by his party colleague, MK Limor Son Har-Melech. In our warped reality, a change this far-reaching in Israel’s sentencing policy was submitted by a back-bencher known for excessive fondness for Jewish murderers like Amiram Ben-Uliel (he is no “Nazi,” heaven forbid, despite having burned a Palestinian family alive while they slept)...

Netanyahu is the father of all sins. Nine months ago, following one of Ben-Gvir’s periodic threats, Netanyahu caved in and let him submit Son Har-Melech’s bill for the first of the required Knesset votes. Coalition members supported it, so it passed.

At that moment, Netanyahu lost control of events. Even though the bill belonged in the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, Ben-Gvir managed to force its transfer to the Knesset’s National Security Committee, headed by his party colleague Tzvika Foghel...

Ben-Gvir is rising in the polls. With people craving revenge, he is offering the most addictive drug of all – a vision of hundreds, perhaps thousands, of convicted terrorists marching toward the electric chair."

The Otzma Yehudit party, led by Kahanist Ben Gvir, holds the power to bring down the Netanyahu government. It utilizes this power to introduce depraved Kahanist ideologies into legislation and further its position of power and influence within the Israel Government.

Israeli tank gunner reveals orders to fire indiscriminately into kibbutz — report - The Grayzone

"New disclosures add to the growing body of evidence indicating many Israelis who died on October 7 were killed by the Israeli military. Meanwhile, the Israeli government has muzzled captives freed from Gaza to prevent further damage to the official narrative."

“The soldier points and tells me, “shoot there — the terrorists are there,”” the captain recounts in the newly-released footage, noting that when she asked “are there civilians there?,” her compatriot simply replied, “I don’t know,” and ordered her to “just shoot” a tank round into the buildings anyway."
