In the midst of ethnic cleansing, when Zionist criminality is lauded & everything seems bleak, it’s good to remember what the fight for justice is really all about: a world where we live in harmony despite differences & that is suitable for human beings to live & love in.

The headlines read “US fuming over Israeli criticism of Kerry.” Is Obama outraged at Israeli ethnic cleansing in Gaza? At Israel using illegal anti-personnel weapons like DIME shrapnel & flechette shells, including on small children? At bombing refugee centers & playgrounds full of kids? No! Obama’s outraged because Israeli media commentators are criticizing Kerry for his diplomatic maneuverings on behalf of the US. After all, the US is bankrolling this war & those commentators have a a lot of gall to bite the hand that feeds them.
That Kerry is a screw-up comes as no surprise; the guy’s so privileged he probably never had to wipe his own ass & likely doesn’t know shite from shinola. The US government has a lot invested in Israel, billions banking on Zionism’s colonial project, & they have no intention of letting Netan-psycho-yahu’s genocidal hatred of Palestinians & military excesses undo 66 years of systematic propagandizing to protect US economic & political interests in the Middle East.
The Exodus narrative, complete with Andy Williams crooning the soundtrack, is in a shambles. Only the most psychopathic Zionists & their supporters can look with equanimity & not horror on the bombing of children. When people around the world watch the horrors of Israeli ethnic cleansing & see reports of the hundreds of thousands out protesting, they will understand something in the Exodus narrative stinks to high heavens.
This is Kerry putting on his mad face (not easy for a guy shot up with Botox) but what concerns him is that Israeli reporters claim he’s too accommodating with Hamas. He’s gonna move that evil eye in our direction when he hears the thunderous chorus of Palestinian supporters around the world denounce him & the whole of the Israeli & US governments as war criminals.
Long live Palestinian intifada! Take it international with protesting, boycotting, and continuing to stand with Gaza.

The children of Gaza are bringing Israel down. It isn’t that Israel went too far this time in bombing homes & schools & targeting children; that’s always been it’s policy. Zionist military strategists call it “mowing the lawn”–which explains the constant bombing over Gaza punctuated by several-day murderous sieges–all part of Operation Ethnic Cleansing. But this time Israel got caught for all the world to see. They can pay punks & professional psychos to fill the internet with hasbara lies & they have mainstream media covering their asses–since the role of media has always been to peddle propaganda to support war. But they can’t control social media or stop the gruesome images of death & sorrow in Gaza from going round the world.
Last week, Israel bombed a school in Beit Hanoun which the UN was using to shelter Palestinians bombed out of their homes. Israel did not deny the attack but only repeated that Hamas used schools for storing & launching rockets. While leaders of Israel are high on the smell of jet fuel & genocide & blinded by political support from the US & Europe, Zionist media of the most right-wing & even crackpot sort must have understood the tsunami of revulsion that bombing small children would evoke. They understood they would need to counter videos & photos from horrified reporters showing small children with massive shrapnel injuries from DIME weapons & flechette shells used by Israel.
It says everything you need to know about Netan-psycho-yahu & Israeli leaders that crackpot Zionists knew enough to lie & appear the voice of reason by claiming Israel did not bomb the school. Rather, they reported, a misfired Hamas rocket hit the school & maybe an errant Israeli shell from ground fighting in the area. But how does that explain the shrapnel wounds? There’s no need for contention here; any forensic investigation of the school & shrapnel injuries that killed 16 Palestinians & critically injured others would quickly show the source of those weapons. And they would have Israel & “Made in the USA” all over them.
But The Washington Post, indistinguishable now from the public relations department of the Israeli military, reports Israel denies bombing the school & “released a grainy, 26-second aerial video” proving it. Well that’s about as convincing as those evil fairies flying in from outer space that play such a role in media reports of ethnic cleansing in Gaza.
Media tries to hedge truth in hundreds of photos of utter devastation in Gaza by captioning ‘medics, or police, or witnesses in Gaza’ claimed the carnage was caused by Israeli airstrikes. Who the hell do they think they’re fooling!?
This distraught little boy is waiting in the emergency room at a hospital after being injured when Israel bombed the UN shelter. The death warrant of Zionism is signed by the tears of this small boy & the shrapnel that killed & injured so many others. Zionism can bend over & kiss its hasbara goodbye.

After three weeks of bombardment by Hamas rockets–for which there is still not a shred of evidence–traumatized Israelis head out to malls, restaurants, beaches to assess the damage. Those sitting on the hills of Sderot to get a front row seat to ethnic cleansing took time to change their clothes & thank the gods of Zionism for being on their side.
Meanwhile, Palestinians combed through tonnage of cement rubble to recover the bodies of beloved buried when Israel took out the whole neighborhood with bombs. They had only twelve hours before Israel started bombing again, goaded on by the psychos of Zion urging Netan-psycho-yahu to take all of Gaza out.
The vile piece of journalistic crap called The Jerusalem Post had a headline: “Into the fray: Why Gaza must go” where they chided leaders of Israel for “moralistic masochism” & temerity in the conduct of ethnic cleansing in Gaza. But world leaders express fear that this time Israel has gone too far. It isn’t slaughter that gives them pause (any more than it does in Afghanistan or Iraq) but the hundreds of thousands of people around the world from small towns to major cities who now know the truth & who continue to protest demanding “Stop the massacre in Gaza!”
Zionism is signing it’s own death warrant. The voices of Palestinian resistance are finally being heard: Free free Palestine! From the river to the sea Palestine will be free!
Long live intifada! Take it international by continuing to protest, boycotting all Israeli & settlement products, & supporting the cultural boycott of Israel.
