Israel’s stranglehold on American foreign policy must be identified and eliminated Last Tuesday there took place a disgraceful display of visceral malignancy in the United States House of Representatives Chamber in the south wing of the Capitol building. The House, long characterized by its aversion to truth, justice and what was once the American way, has been corrupted by special interests who have effectively bought an overwhelming majority of legislators, to include the leadership of the two major political parties. In the area of foreign policy, as well as a spill-over into many domestic and constitutional issues, there is no more powerful lobby than that of the state of ...

This report from M. K. Bhadrakumar in India via Consortium News — consortiumnews.com/2023/1...l-poised-to-open-lebanon- front/ — indicates that my analysis of October 30, 2023, is correct that the October 7 Hamas attack was a reopening by US neoconservatives and Israel of the Middle Eastern Wars, the purpose of which is to remove Hezbollah, Syria, and Iran as barriers to Greater Israel. What is called Israel’s right to self-defense is a euphemism for Israeli expansion. You can read Bhadrakumar’s report, so I don’t need to explicate it. In my opinion, the only point on which he is wrong is at the end of his article where he says the conflict will be limited to the ...

The Israeli Defense Ministry is reportedly going to supply air defense systems to an unnamed country within the framework of a broader $1.2 billion deal, per Defense News. Neither the system's type nor the customer involved in the sale has been named so far. The air defense system in question is one "with advanced technological capabilities, which has been operationally proven" as per Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI). For its part, the Israeli media mentions the Barak MR as a possibility, while Iron Dome, Arrow 2, Arrow 3, Sky Capture, Eagle Eye III VSHORAD and others have also been named as potential picks. At the same time, the Western press appears to have no clue as ...
Macron calls on Israel to stop killing Gaza's women and babies

Israel must stop killing babies and women in Gaza, French President Emmanuel Macron has told the BBC. In an exclusive interview at the Élysée Palace, he said there was "no justification" for the bombing, saying a ceasefire would benefit Israel. While recognising Israel's right to protect itself, "we do urge them to stop this bombing" in Gaza, he said. But he also stressed that France "clearly condemns" the "terrorist" actions of Hamas. France - like Israel, the US, the UK, and other Western nations - considers Hamas a terrorist organisation. When asked if he wanted other leaders - including in the US and the UK - to join his ...

Authored by Dave DeCamp via AntiWar.com, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Charles Q. Brown has expressed concern that Israel’s killing of Palestinian civilians will help Hamas recruit more militants and cautioned against a long war in Gaza. Asked by reporters if the high civilian casualty rate will create more Hamas fighters, Brown said, "Yes, very much so. And I think that’s something we have to pay attention to. "That’s why when we talk about time — the faster you can get to a point where you stop the hostilities, you have less strife for the civilian population that turns into someone who now wants to be the next member of Hamas," he said. ...

This chart fully supports Jim Kunstler’s theory that Israel is purposely targeting civilians, including women and children, as a way of leveling out the fertility playing field. Israel vaccinated 90% of their population, so their excess mortality and decline in fertility due to the toxic jab are accelerating. Meanwhile, the fertility rate of Muslim countries is off the charts compared to the Western world, where fertility rates aren’t high enough to replace the dying. Karl Denninger is certainly on target that demographics are destiny.

Citing the body's failure to properly address the conflict between Israel and Palestine, Craig Mokhiber has resigned from the United Nations (UN), becoming the former director of the UN's human rights office (OHCHR) in New York. Instead of doing the job it was tasked with doing, the UN has instead "surrendered to the power of the U.S.," Mokhiber stated, adding that American politicians have completely given in to the "Israeli lobby." "The European, ethno-nationalist, settler colonial project in Palestine has entered its final phase," Mokhiber further claimed, citing the Zionist origins of modern-day Israel and the ethnic cleansing project that has ...
With all eyes on Gaza, Israel sets West Bank ablaze

While the world’s attention has been focused on Israel’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, Israel’s military and settlers have been relentless in their violence against Palestinians across the occupied West Bank. Israeli forces have been conducting deadly raids in towns and refugee camps across the territory since 7 October, when Hamas delivered a bloody nose to Israel’s military and political establishment. Israel hopes to suppress armed resistance in the West Bank as part of these raids, but to also quell any form of dissent to its ongoing genocide in Gaza. As Israel’s violence in Gaza sets new precedents of scale and brutality, it is also intensifying the ...

From Mondoweiss, "Israeli doctors urge the bombing of Gaza hospitals": Only last week, dozens of prominent Israeli rabbis had already assured Israeli leaders that they have a right to bomb al-Shifa hospital in Gaza, and this week's letter signed by "Doctors for the Rights of IDF Soldiers" urges the bombing of any and every hospital in Gaza. The letter states, in no uncertain terms, that due to suspicion of "terrorist activity," the hospitals are "a legitimate target for annihilation." They claim that "ambulances that are evacuating ...

Armed Israeli settlers stormed the Armenian Quarter in occupied East Jerusalem on Sunday, 5 November, in an effort to lay a hand on a piece of land following the signing of a murky deal between the Jerusalem Armenian Patriarchate and Xana Capital, owned by Jewish Australian investor Danny Rubenstein. Rubenstein carries an Israeli passport and also goes by the name Danny Rothman. News of the deal first emerged in 2021.

Eyad Al-Bozom, the spokesman for the Gaza Interior Ministry, has accused the Israel Defense Forces of firing on people moving through the safe passage route in the Gaza Strip, saying the attacks turned it into a death corridor. "The occupier's (Israel's - TASS) statements about the existence of a safe humanitarian corridor [in the Gaza Strip] are a complete lie. It is a corridor of death where everyone who passes through becomes a target," he said. According to Al-Bozom, about 900,000 people still live in the northern Gaza Strip, moving between refugee shelters, visiting relatives and friends. The number of refugee shelters in the enclave has reached 225, the spokesman ...

Here are the ten dumbest things we’re being asked to believe about Israel’s war on Gaza, in no particular order: 1. That Israel had no idea what Hamas was up to prior to October 7, but ever since October 7 has known about every hospital, mosque, school, refugee camp and water tower that Hamas is hiding in. 2. That the blame for all of the deaths caused by Israeli weapons launched by Israel rests solely on Hamas. 3. That Hamas is using “human shields” — meaning Hamas bases are hidden amidst civilian populations — yet Israel is managing to kill thousands of civilians without doing any meaningful damage to Hamas. 4. That it would be ...

Human rights defenders on Tuesday renewed calls for the U.S. government to end American complicity in Israel’s “horrific war crimes” after the publication of videos purportedly recorded and shared by Israeli soldiers showing the torture and dehumanization of Palestinian men, some of them naked, in the illegally occupied West Bank. U.S.-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) were among the groups that condemned the videos, which show armed and uniformed Israeli troops and possibly settlers beating, kicking, stomping, and dragging bound, blindfolded, and naked Palestinian men, forcing them to shout “long live Israel,” and ...
