Just as with the war on (not in) Iraq, this one is not about nuclear weapons. Just as with that earlier war, this is not about regime change and ushering in freedom. As with that war over twenty years ago, this is really about nation-destruction and smashing a country to bits, so that it never recovers..
On May 22, we begin our fasting across the country while demanding:
1) a resumption of humanitarian aid, under UN authority, to Gaza
2) that the U.S. stop arming Israel NOW!
We can join or support or both. Surely, we must do more.
It’s not just Gaza, Israel is trying to distract us from. Israel just changed how land ownership works in the West Bank. Here’s what that means.
“The consequences of this decision paint a very grim outlook for the future,” said Abdallah Hammad from JLAC. “This will turn things upside down like never before, as it won’t be Israeli settlers demanding to get their outposts legalized. They will be legalized almost immediately, while Palestinians will be made into strangers, forced to justify their claim over the lands of their families and ancestors.”
“When I hear people talking about the risk of annexation, I tell them: this is annexation. It has already begun, and it is advancing.”
Read the details of this annexation the MSM will not tell you about in Mondoweiss:
Seems like a smart evil man coerced a stupid evil man to do his bidding with nothing in return ie an end to the Gaza / Israeli war. Netanyahu was literally giddy while thanking Trump. Seems like Netanyahu and any Republican President are very good at war but not so good at planning for the aftermath, Iraq, Gaza, and now Iran.
Let us not forget Valeria Plame and undercover CIA operative and her husband former Ambassador Joe Wilson who both advised Bush Administration that Iran was not working on a nuclear bomb. Both of them paid the price for their advice. Plame was outed and Wilson was dismissed. And lo and behold no WMDs. The American War Machine rolls on.

As important as Iran is, we can’t allow ourselves to forget the horror of what’s happening to Palestine.

I thought Trump might have stood up to Netanyahu at least a little, but he really has been dog walking him lately.
Joe, this is excellent — thank you!
I'm glad you liked it!
It's always about US hegemony. Sad and evil.
They really are imperialists, in the true essence of the word.
