Israel’s genocide of Gaza is intentional, planned and ongoing with no sign
of slowing down. The contrary, with no water, food and medicine it is
accelerating. Israel leaders boast openly that they do not care about what
the UN says or what world leaders say. Israeli fascist leaders say they do
not care what statements are issued by governments of Muslim and Arab
countries. Nor do they care if public pressure causes some western leaders
to moderate their language from unconditional support for Israel to show
concern for the “humanitarian catastrophe” unfolding in Gaza (without
naming the perpetrator). Israel actually can use the humanitarian
catastrophe (as if it is an act of God not their agency) as bargaining
chips. Israel can offer pauses in the slaughter in exchange for further
weapons from Western governments and for release of Israeli prisoners.
Maybe even a temporary ceasefire and fuel to any remaining hospitals in
exchange for additional support to continue the genocidal occupation and
for impunity from facing tribunals for war crimes and crimes against
humanity.
Israeli leaders are crystal clear about their crimes and they get their way
by genocide and total state terrorism against populations. If you have any
doubt, listen to them (see below). They even say openly that if Hizbollah
continues its resistance in South Lebanon, then all of Lebanon will pay a
devastating price and Beirut will be like Gaza (i.e. totally devastated).
Israeli military spokesemen gave the same threats to cities in the West
Bank like Jenin and Tulkarem and even Ramallah. These are not idle threats.
If the world is not willing to to stop Israel from devastating cities in
Gaza strip and is even giving it more weapons to commit its genocide there,
why would it not also devastate Lebanon or the West Bank. If you get away
with one genocide you get away with others. Afterall International law
cannot be enforced in this case. According to Israeli leaders global public
opinion and “diplomatic” pressure will not end its carnage. Many human
rights advocates are at a loss as to how to end the carnage.
Israel is the only country on earth that did not set any border for itself.
It is also the first colonial power whose base is not a geographic area
away from the are it colonized (e France was the base for colonizing
Algeria). The Zionist base is wherever Zionists occur in positions of power
in Western Countries(originally France and England but now the US and oher
countries). The original Zionist plan is setting up an Eretz Yisrael is in
the area between the Nile of Egypt to the Euphrates. But this is changing
where Israel dominion as Netanyahu showed in a map at the UN includes the
Arabian Peninsula and the gulf states. But the Zionist plans are far more
than about geography. Geography is negotiable if there are guarantees of
economic and colonial hegemony. Gaza is needed because of the gas fields
there worth hundreds of billions but that is a small part of a wider plan
for which 2.3 million people are dispensible.
The United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia are already colonized
economically and are run by easily contolled leaders who will do the
US/Israel bidding. Zionist grip on the US system is visible everywhere
from Hollywood to mainstream media to congress that allocates more mone to
Israel than South America and Africa combined. In many western countries,
the Zionist lobby succeeded in even silencing free speech so asking for
freedom in Palestine is persecuted. There is a waron truth.
Gaza devastation: Unprecedented scale of destruction by Israeli forces
So what is to be done? First please note that while many media like
Al-Jazeera show Palestinian suffering, they do not provide coverage of
Israeli/Zionist statements, ideology, or intent. The genocidal statements
are rarely seen in either Western but also in Eastern media. This is
important because humanitarian suffering elicits sympathy from those with
peope who care about fellow human beings. But most people and certainly
most leaders are willing to ACT only if they see direct impact on them.
TUnfortunately, the statements of Zionist leaders and their direct actions
including suppression of free speech in supposed “democratic countries” if
exposed would be more likely to get results than pleading to save
Palestinian children (as important as that is). Thus, we must spend at
least as much time in publicizing the Zionist plans and words . Documenting
slaughter must be accompanied by documenting the intent and plans for
slaughter. We must expose why this is not merely about Palestine but about
an evil tribal ideology called Zionism that is not content with Palestine
but subverts and hurts people around the world. For example, it is critical
to show how Israel is hurting US public interest and destroying the US and
even got away with killing US citizens like the sailors of the USS Liberty.
Millions of people are mobilizing. You do make a difference. All
individual efforts count. Below are materials you can use and publicize.
Telling the truth is a revolutionary act. The pen can be mightier than the
sword sometimes.
Anyway, please do take the time to look over this material and use them
extensively:

“When 2.5 million people live in a closed-off Gaza, it’s going to be a
human catastrophe. Those people will become even bigger animals than they
are today, with the aid of an insane fundamentalist Islam. The pressure at
the border will be awful. It’s going to be a terrible war. So, if we want
to remain alive, we will have to kill and kill and kill. All day, every
day.” Amnon Sofer, Israeli demographer in 2004“There will be no food, no electricity, no food, no fuel. Everything is

The present situation in Gaza is a holocaust. The creation of a Jewish state in Palestine in 1947 was a huge mistake. There is a belief now that the destruction of Gaza is actually about clearing the way to build the Ben_Gurion_Canal_Project.

Yes, Israel has become the most demonic nation in the world. It cannot backtrack and recover world opinion. It’s media and political control are evaporating in Europe, and even in the U.S. there are unprecedented criticisms of Israel. The fear of Israeli political power is greatly overblown–all it takes are a few brave mainstream politicians to break the spell–i.e., criticize Israel and be re-elected. There is also a growing dissent within Israel, with a large portion of the population out for Netanyahu’s blood.
