I do not believe that anything I say about what is happening in Gaza will affect Israeli or American policy in that conflict. But I want to be on record so that when historians look back on this moral calamity, they will see that some Americans were on the right side of history.
Thank you for laying out the moral issues involved in what's goin on in Gaza and who is culpable. It shocks the conscience to see such maniacal mass murder taking place and worse, that our government is enabling it enthusiastically while pretending it respects the human rights of the innocent civilians of Gaza.
No, bank robbers don’t get to vet the supplies used by the security guards at the bank they are robbing. And bank robbers don’t have a right of self-defense against, security, employees or police. Get it? Palestinians have every right to fight back against the brutal, sadistic, genocidal, land-stealing occupation forces.
Hamas broke out of the concentration camp with the attitude that naturally results from growing up in Israel’s weapon’s testing lab.
Yes, I have the nerve to suggest the Nazis were in the wrong and provoked the resistance in the Warsaw Ghetto. Same facts and logic apply.
Yes, racism, supremacism, Judeo Nazism, torture, cruelty, random murder; all the realities of Zionism today.
Jews are allowed in Gaza. They just aren’t allowed to build in Gaza the settlements they’ve built in the WB making that occupied territory a Swiss Cheese of colonies of lunatic, Bogart settlers, murders and thieves.
Two million living as second class citizens means nothing if the others three million are treated like and referred to as, animals, or “grass to be mowed.”
Israeli officials were negotiating with other countries to take Gazans. Don’t try to say they aren’t.
Arab countries often refuse to take Palestinians for two reasons: they don’t want to go, and no Arab country wants to be complicit in Israel’s ethnic-cleansing schemes.
Besides, considering how welcome Jews have been in the hundred countries they’ve been ejected from, you are a hypocrite for raising that criticism.
Israel’s entire mode of existence DEPENDS on enemies so they can pretend to be victims and thereby extort hundreds of billions of dollars from the USA, which Israeli PMs boast of controlling.
It isn’t Gazan who caused this crisis. If was atheist Zionists from the beginning. They should all be forced to live in the destroyed Gaza and the roles should be reversed with Pals controlling every detail of their concentration camp lives for the next 75 years.
But moving all Zionists, neocons and idiot complicit US politicians to a Kuiper Belt object is a better option because then the US might regain control of its own foreign policy.
In what the late Saddam Hussein once dubbed “the great Satan,” roughly two-thirds of the United States enlisted military corps is white . . .
The fat, bulbous, U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin once confirmed in a 93-2 vote of the U.S. Senate, immediately embarked on a whirlwind media tour of duty, telling the pseudo-secular sycophants in the state-controlled tabloid press and state-controlled television talk show circuit about how the U.S. Army is full of bad racist white men.
Senior Defense Department leaders celebrating yet another Pride Month at the Pentagon sounding the alarm about the rising number of state laws they say target the LGBTQ+ community, warned the trend is hurting the feelings of the armed forces . . . “LGBTQ plus and other diverse communities are under attack, just because they are different. Hate for hate’s sake,” said Gil Cisneros, the Pentagon’s undersecretary for personnel and readiness, who also serves as DoD’s chief diversity and inclusion officer.
And now the U.S. Army is doing ads begging for more young white males? What happened?
Even with a full-on declaration of war from Congress, and even if Gavin Newsome could be cheated into the Oval Office by ZOG somehow, while Globohomo diversity brigades go door-to-door looking to impress American children into military service, they will be met with armed, well-trained opposition, the invasion at the Southern border is going full tilt, and the drugs are flowing in like never before . . .
With the borders of Europe and the USA wide open, civil warfare within the USA, Britain, and most of Europe is a certainty if foreign wars are initiated. Nobody is going to fight a war for Biden, he is dumber than Bush . . . Nobody is going to fight a war for that kikesucking Zionist ass-whore Nikki Haley, and I mean nobody.
Get ready for it . . . the fat old devil worshipping fags on Capitol Hill, on Wall Street, in Whitehall, and in Brussels are in no shape to fight a war themselves, and most Americans are armed to the teeth with their own guns . . . NATO hates heterosexual white men . . . they said so themselves . . .
This is an embarrassment of a post and John should know better. I am not sure if he is out of touch, or simply naive and ignorant and does not do actual research. This post is riddled with inaccuracies on every line.
Let’s get one thing straight first: This is a holy war by Muslims not a military action. Which is what they have been doing for 1500 years and say so themselves. Now that this is clarified lets talk facts.
Firstly we are dealing with terrorists. What does that mean? It means they are depraved psychopaths who do not value human life and they play dirty. Religious arab terrorists are even worse because deception and lying is prized and baked into their culture, something I wonder if John even understands. Life is of no value only service to Islamic Law
What do terrorists do? Kill civilians, steal aid, kill their own people, kill their political enemies, lie, cheat, steal, slander, manipulate, libel, hold hostage, sacrifice innocents, steal wealth, commit genocide, ethnically cleanse. When you add muslims to that you get denial of human rights as the cherry on top.
1. Israel is not holding up any aid. The humanitarian groups are failing to get aid to the people.
2. Hamas is stealing aid and blowing up food trucks, keeping their own people from eating so they can kill more of their citizens as martyrs against Israel. This is expected in their culture they are rewarded with virgins. John should know this is what depraved terrorists do because they always do things like this. Maybe he is naive and can’t fathom the insane things these terrorists do that would make no sense to a westerner.
3. Hamas keeps children and family members close while they fire rockets so they can sacrifice them all as martyrs and again this is EXPECTED.
4. Human shields to further increase fatalities and Israel cannot avoid these obviously
5. Embedding terror infrastructure in schools, mosques, hospitals and firing at Israeli cities killing Israelis and destroying buildings and infrastructure. Then firing rockets at IDF from there or firing rockets at Tel Aviv. Firing RPGs and running machine guns from the hospitals at IDF. The entire hospital staff collaborating with Hamas. Lying about Hamas too to smear Israel
6. Wide scale destruction. It is physically impossible to destroy terror infrastructure without flatting large swaths of land and buildings which has to be done to detonate tunnel networks deep underground. I suggest John talk to engineers and watch IDF videos showing the bombing of these underground tunnel systems. This was a choice of depraved Hamas and their population supporters who knew the ramifications of embedding them in population buildings.
7. The Palestinian death stats are a lie
8. The deaths do not include terrorists which are close to 50%
9. Women and children deaths are a lie. It is physically impossible that no men are killed. Most of the children killed are terrorists.
10. Hamas has terrorists starting from age 14 and plenty of Hitler youth. They use children to bait and lure IDF troops. The children hate and want to kill Jews. They carry machine guns and grenades. Yes they are casualties just like Nazi Youth fighters in Germany but worse because they are deceptive and entrap IDF forces. John should know this the youth are in their military. So any children in the death count are mostly not civilians
11. Hamas wears civilian clothing and fires from civilians. They rocket Israeli cities from civilian areas to maximize casualties. Israel being stronger just means they can stop the Genocide. Russia vs Nazis no different,
12. Palestinians want to sacrifice their lives for Jihad they see this as a good thing. They are sacrificing themselves to inflate the body count
13. Doctors journalists etc are all terrorists who support Hamas their dear leaders there are almost no innocents
14. Hospitals are used as terrorist aid camps to get their fighters back out in battle
15. Hamas is controlling food and water they have tons of food and tons of water and desalination plants they also can control their Egypt border. Israel has zero obligations to supply any food or water to another country. This is on Hamas
16. Muslims scream allahu akbar normal armies fighting over political means or land do not do that. This is a holy war for them.
17. Muslims have openly called for Jew genocide for 70 years. Israelis want a peaceful state. They have peace deals all over the middle east. The Palestinians do not want one
18. The entire society from birth is indoctrinated
19. Hamas thug leaders are billionaires
20. There is not one bomb shelter in Gaza because they WANT to be killed as Martyrs
21. Almost all Palestinians are terrorists and Islamic Law practitioners who are commanded to kill Jews and other non-believers including sacrificing themselves and all muslims to achieve it.
22. There are still 100+ hostages held and rockets flying into Israeli cities.
23. Hamas Hezbollah and Iran are all one entity and together DO pose a threat to Israels existence. And they proudly openly claim they want to genocide Jews as told in the Quran.
24. Palestinian families are collaborating with Hamas holding and hiding hostages inside their
Homes NOT in tunnels which means the population is guilty just as Imperial Japanese were
The list goes on and on John should be ashamed by ignoring the depravity and deception of these people. He should also watch Palestine and muslim TV to watch what they say themselves
One thing I think westerners like John who don’t understand arab muslims fail to grasp is that muslims do not use emotions and words the same as the West. Aggression to them means not letting them kill for Allah. They cry when they lose family members in war but they are proud that they are “martyrs”. They complain about starving but think its a “good thing to starve and die” for Allah. These are religious fanatics that celebrate and extol death as a means to a good end, virgins and paradise. You don’t understand them, John.
Arabs keep starting wars and then hiding behind their own non-combatants. The plan is always the same, at some point enough collateral damage will accrue, the world will cry 'atrocity' and Israel will stop.
But maybe starting a war with a horrible atrocity was wrong? It kind of pissed off Israelis. They might also think that living with Hamas is not sustainable. Michael Oren explained in his piece in The Free Press that he now regrets not killing Hamas leaders in a past conflict because they were in close proximity to a bunch of kids so a smaller then necessary munition was used. Never again, he said. Perhaps that is understandable? Not to the good professor apparently, high moral code must be upheld.
Also, I like the good professor citing statements of Israeli officials dated October 10. That was the time when the extent of the atrocities was just becoming apparent, these are grieving people under duress. Well, this makes for a good quote. Besides, he does not give a phuck, he does not live in the neighborhood.
Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) have every right to say what they like about Israel and the genocide of Palestinians as elected members of the US House of Representatives; they never took an oath to serve Israel . . .
I voted for Ron Desantis (R-FL) to be governor of Florida, not ambassador to Israel.
The recently ousted Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Congressman Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), who took at least a dozen votes to get elected speaker, traveled to Israel immediately upon his election, declaring to the Israeli Knesset that the USA is steadfastly committed to supporting Ukraine in their war against Russia . . .
Was he running for speaker of the Israeli Knesset too?
Following his ouster . . . McCarthy (R-CA) traveled abroad again, this time to England, and expressed his open contempt for the white Republicans who make up the majority of the GOP and praised Democrats for their diversity during a debate at Oxford in the wake of his ouster as House Speaker . . .
Is he now running for the Prime Minister of the U.K.?
Nevertheless, he is free to go on media tours bashing white people and lobbying for Israel, because he has now resigned from the US House of Representatives . . . I can only conclude that the collective RINO butthurt over former Speaker McCarthy is all about the Israelis who have hijacked the American deep state war machine.
It has become so painfully obvious, especially where you have someone like Nikki Haley wagging her finger and shouting down Vivek Ramaswamy in a presidential debate on live national television when the questions of this Ukrainian war against Russia and any mention of Israel are concerned, that the United States government has become a wholly owned subsidiary of the American Israeli Political Action Committee.
It is appalling to think that western powers are, with a few exceptions, standing by and letting this massacre of innocent Palestinians happen. The US and the EU have blood on their hands for their unconditional support of the Israeli government. In particular, Ursula Von Der Leyen and and Joe Biden have a lot to answer for. I appreciate that Biden is under pressure politically, Von Der Leyen has no such excuse. Other Arab countries have been, as usual, self-serving and cowardly in their half-hearted support for the Palestinians. I don't mean arms/weapons as that is not a solution - I mean diplomacy and strength of conviction. The Saudi are only interested in following the footsteps of the UAE and probably spend more time agonizing about the World Cup than the plight of the Palestinians. Egypt got into bed with Israel a long time ago and their only concern is to stop the flow of Palestinian refugees into Egypt (something that Israel would be delighted to see happen). The extreme right wing politicians who have developed like fungi over the past decade have skewed the moral compass of the west. If we didn't have morons like Trump, Johnson, Bolsonaro, Netanyahu, Orban etc we would have had a much better chance to deal with this, and other world problems, through diplomacy and intelligence.
Let me elaborate... also! This won't be good when the Present becomes a distant Past. But you're lucky since this is written in digital form it will probably won't survive the passing of Time. So I suggest you write this in a good Paper with quality ink if you're really interested in letting the Future know what you thought about just another uman party.
Now for the elaboration.
This is a very poor argument in general. Missing the FACT of Israel giving money - and David knows what else - to HAMAS in order to have the perfect excuse to do what the Zionists always wanted to do - Occupy all of that resource rich Land - is just a no go when one wants to look good after Time passes. And there is plenty more to recall but clearly it doesn't matter that much.
And maybe the Palestinians are with luck since mutTrump is out of office!
I firmly believe that trying to undo the sins of the nation state within the confines of the nation-state construct will lead to more death and destruction. Along with saving lives, part of what I want to do is to encourage more of us to think about new ways to think and act on this issue.
There must be a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, not with Palestinians suffering under oppressive conditions, but as a place where all live with peace and equality. It is time for Pope Francis to do more than talk. He must go to Gaza and make a stand for peace and freedom.
A Short Response to John Mearsheimer’s Death and Destruction in Gaza
Mr. Mearsheimer has gone on record against Israel’s actions in Gaza and the US support of Israel. He shows principle in making his position clear. He has sided with those who are seeking the death and destruction of Israel and Jews, specifically, and Western civilization, in general.
He speaks of standing on the right side of history but all he has shown is that, despite his long career and Distinguished Chair, his moral compass is not just broken but pointing in the wrong direction.
1. Hamas, and all other Palestinian “resistance” groups are striving for the destruction of Israel and not a 2 state solution. (see the charters of all these organizations, including that of the PLO, despite its promise to amend its articles following the Oslo accords, regardless of what is written in English)
2. Hamas as an organization and its massacres on October 7th are supported by a large majority of the Palestinian population in Gaza and in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank). 1
3. Israel is at war and is attacking Hamas in order to destroy it. The military focus is on military targets, despite his claims to the contrary. The fact that these targets are embedded in and below civilian sites does not give them immunity.
4. Fuel, food and aid going into the Gaza strip are routinely confiscated by Hamas and used to further their military and political apparati. This endangers Israeli soldiers and prolongs the conflict.
5. Mosques, schools, hospitals, private homes and just about everything else has been used by Hamas to hide weapons, as rocket launch sites, command and communication centers and are therefore legitimate military targets. Other structures which pose a risk to the soldiers fighting house to house are and should be destroyed.
6. The capture of unlawful combatants (which these terrorists are) requires not just the laying down of arms but also making sure they are not carrying explosives or any other weapons. They are stripped down and wait for transfer for interrogation. If this is humiliating, that is too bad. 2
7. He points out that Israelis see the Palestinians as ‘inhuman animals’. References such as ‘inhuman animals’ specifically refer to Hamas and those who carried out the atrocities of October 7th, including the Gazan civilians that followed them through the fence. The footnotes presented specifically say this and pasting the word “Palestinians” on the headline is an obfuscation.
8. His claims about settler violence are a joke and dependent on a single statement. There are no doubt Israelis who have taken the law into their own hands but they are a tiny minority and are hounded by the Israeli authorities. The reason for the increased Israeli military activities in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) is because the Palestinian Authority has been completely ineffective in controlling Hamas (one could argue supportive of).
9. Lastly, in an interview on UnHerd, Mr Maersheimer laughed at the idea that Israel was facing an existential threat and therefore was overreacting in this conflict. I would ask that Mr Maersheimer include in his assessment all the parties involved: Hamas, Hezbollah, Syrian Militia, and especially Iran, the economic consequences of hundreds of thousands of reservists called up, almost 200,000 citizens displaced from their homes, impacts on production and the cost of war, the desire of Israel's enemies to drag out this conflict over a long period of time and over several fronts, not to mention the soldiers injured and fallen in battle. For him, sitting in his Chicago office, it is not existential but for those of us here in Israel it most certainly is.
Zionnists are acting just like nazis, there’s only missing gas chambers to send palestinians in!
And U.S.A. support those criminals in their genocidal intent against palestinians! Shame on you ignominious and imoral american leeadership! History will judge you!
You posted a video of them calling hamas inhuman animals and made it about the civilians and we should see you as a serious person?
Thank you for laying out the moral issues involved in what's goin on in Gaza and who is culpable. It shocks the conscience to see such maniacal mass murder taking place and worse, that our government is enabling it enthusiastically while pretending it respects the human rights of the innocent civilians of Gaza.
Well put!!
No, bank robbers don’t get to vet the supplies used by the security guards at the bank they are robbing. And bank robbers don’t have a right of self-defense against, security, employees or police. Get it? Palestinians have every right to fight back against the brutal, sadistic, genocidal, land-stealing occupation forces.
Hamas broke out of the concentration camp with the attitude that naturally results from growing up in Israel’s weapon’s testing lab.
Yes, I have the nerve to suggest the Nazis were in the wrong and provoked the resistance in the Warsaw Ghetto. Same facts and logic apply.
Yes, racism, supremacism, Judeo Nazism, torture, cruelty, random murder; all the realities of Zionism today.
Jews are allowed in Gaza. They just aren’t allowed to build in Gaza the settlements they’ve built in the WB making that occupied territory a Swiss Cheese of colonies of lunatic, Bogart settlers, murders and thieves.
Two million living as second class citizens means nothing if the others three million are treated like and referred to as, animals, or “grass to be mowed.”

It isn’t Gazan who caused this crisis. If was atheist Zionists from the beginning. They should all be forced to live in the destroyed Gaza and the roles should be reversed with Pals controlling every detail of their concentration camp lives for the next 75 years.
But moving all Zionists, neocons and idiot complicit US politicians to a Kuiper Belt object is a better option because then the US might regain control of its own foreign policy.

Too many observers forget that America has long been committed to Indigenous genocide. Our own history reveals the nature of the project underway in the Middle East. https://shahidbuttar.substack.com/p/indigenous-lives-matter-from-north
Might be hard on pro Israel Palestinians but I doubt there are any. Human shields are difficult to deal with, but Hamas must be destroyed.
A Short Response to John Mearsheimer’s Death and Destruction in Gaza
Mr. Mearsheimer has gone on record against Israel’s actions in Gaza and the US support of Israel. He shows principle in making his position clear. He has sided with those who are seeking the death and destruction of Israel and Jews, specifically, and Western civilization, in general.
He speaks of standing on the right side of history but all he has shown is that, despite his long career and Distinguished Chair, his moral compass is not just broken but pointing in the wrong direction.
1. Hamas, and all other Palestinian “resistance” groups are striving for the destruction of Israel and not a 2 state solution. (see the charters of all these organizations, including that of the PLO, despite its promise to amend its articles following the Oslo accords, regardless of what is written in English)
2. Hamas as an organization and its massacres on October 7th are supported by a large majority of the Palestinian population in Gaza and in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank). 1
3. Israel is at war and is attacking Hamas in order to destroy it. The military focus is on military targets, despite his claims to the contrary. The fact that these targets are embedded in and below civilian sites does not give them immunity.
4. Fuel, food and aid going into the Gaza strip are routinely confiscated by Hamas and used to further their military and political apparati. This endangers Israeli soldiers and prolongs the conflict.
5. Mosques, schools, hospitals, private homes and just about everything else has been used by Hamas to hide weapons, as rocket launch sites, command and communication centers and are therefore legitimate military targets. Other structures which pose a risk to the soldiers fighting house to house are and should be destroyed.
6. The capture of unlawful combatants (which these terrorists are) requires not just the laying down of arms but also making sure they are not carrying explosives or any other weapons. They are stripped down and wait for transfer for interrogation. If this is humiliating, that is too bad. 2
7. He points out that Israelis see the Palestinians as ‘inhuman animals’. References such as ‘inhuman animals’ specifically refer to Hamas and those who carried out the atrocities of October 7th, including the Gazan civilians that followed them through the fence. The footnotes presented specifically say this and pasting the word “Palestinians” on the headline is an obfuscation.
8. His claims about settler violence are a joke and dependent on a single statement. There are no doubt Israelis who have taken the law into their own hands but they are a tiny minority and are hounded by the Israeli authorities. The reason for the increased Israeli military activities in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) is because the Palestinian Authority has been completely ineffective in controlling Hamas (one could argue supportive of).
9. Lastly, in an interview on UnHerd, Mr Maersheimer laughed at the idea that Israel was facing an existential threat and therefore was overreacting in this conflict. I would ask that Mr Maersheimer include in his assessment all the parties involved: Hamas, Hezbollah, Syrian Militia, and especially Iran, the economic consequences of hundreds of thousands of reservists called up, almost 200,000 citizens displaced from their homes, impacts on production and the cost of war, the desire of Israel's enemies to drag out this conflict over a long period of time and over several fronts, not to mention the soldiers injured and fallen in battle. For him, sitting in his Chicago office, it is not existential but for those of us here in Israel it most certainly is.
Zionnists are acting just like nazis, there’s only missing gas chambers to send palestinians in!
And U.S.A. support those criminals in their genocidal intent against palestinians! Shame on you ignominious and imoral american leeadership! History will judge you!
