That photo of the IDF literally made me sick to my stomach. I am beyond disgusted with both political parties in this country which have become infested with special interest money. They have both become the parties of Genocide and Forever Wars-the DGFW party and the RGFW. The most egregious part to me has been the lack of empathy for the Palestinians, especially children and babies. Another holocaust is happening right in front of our eyes. The mainstream press has propagandized us with one-sided reporting and outright lies. When will people ever learn to believe their "lying eyes" instead of the mainstream press, AKA as "Stenographers for the State Department".
When we talk of the special interests, we need to be more specific. It is the billionaire class running the hedge funds and larger corporations. It is the oligarchs of the west that are controlling the narrative through their Corporate-Owned-News (CON) and who have all those lucrative merchants of death contracts with the military and spy agencies. If we are going to fix the problems in the world, we need to defund the billionaires.
Yes! For one thing, we should heavily tax corporations and CEO's like we did in the 1950's. The Great Depression actually opened the door to that kind of reform. The billionaires own Congress so I don't know how we could pull that off. There would have to be a massive voter revolt.
100% accurate statement, and really covers most of the controlling factors behind the scenes. Although and extremely important fact to add to that is the jewish lobby AIPAC, who has extensive control of the congress and about 99% of every important politician in the US and UK primarily. Not only the US provides over 33 billion dollars a year to israhell, but provides the weapons, ammunition, military equipment and support as well as military intelligence and many soldiers are american citizens with dual citizenship as well as British. If we look closely israhell is kind of another state of the US. Therefore, if the jewish lobby dictates that the US needs to provide all that support it’s completely granted without question. In fact every UN resolution even to stop this genocide has been vetoed by the US. So, who is really in control?
It’s really appalling to see this ongoing genocide happening before our eyes and the great powers still after almost 2 years continue to allow and support this heinous crimes, as we watch day in and day out in horror but powerless to do anything.
Oh, Cara, this is beyond heartbreaking, and I think of you all the time when I hear about the latest incursions into the West Bank and attacks on southern Lebanon. Then, when I read Dr. Ezzideen's posts from Gaza (https://x.com/ezzingaza), I'm beside myself with grief over the horror of what's happening.
It's not just the IDF, it's the settlers themselves--who are now attacking the military in order to get at the Palestinians directly. The more the Palestinians resist, the more the hammer comes down on all of them. Meanwhile, the West is absolutely deaf to what's happening.
I pray for your friends in the West Bank, and I pray for your own good heart. God help all of us . . .
Death to everyone who is carrying out and enabling the genocide of the Palestinians. No decent person supports the genocide. The US and Israel are rogue, terrorist, crimes states which routinely violate international law and wantonly commit mass murder, mass destruction, mass displacements, theft, torture and every crime imaginable. Their illegal wars of aggression in the Middle East have murdered millions of innocent civilians and displaced tens of millions of innocent civilians. The leaders of those countries do not care. They have no humanity and no decency. This US citizen has lost all respect for my Country, of which I have been made ashamed by the fact that my Country is enabling this genocide. Israel, for which I have never had any respect, does not have the ability to carry out the genocide by itself and could not do so without US support. All the leaders in the US and Israel who support this genocide deserve the same fate as the German leaders faced when convicted of their crimes at Nuremberg.
Thank you for this superbly pithy comment. The soldiers of the IDF are the operators of western armaments. This genocide comes with a "made in America" tag. Palestinians have a saying: "America is the head of the snake."
Thank you for speaking out with the power of truth! The Sec. Gen. of the UN " IF only we had known of the starvation Genocide of the Palestinians" " IF only we had known of the mass bombings of civilian homes" IF only we had known of the total destruction of all hospitals" IF only we had known of the total destruction of all schools" IF ONLY WE HAD KNOWN OF THE GENOCIDE OF THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE". The future headlines. Free, Free, Free Palestine!
Bob Vylan for decades has been singing against the establishment. Amongst his lyrics were:
"Kill the fucking Queen, burn Britannia"
"Winding people up is how we derive enjoyment from living in England"
"Dig up Maggie" (Margaret Thatcher
"I wipe my arse with UK flag, the spit on the crown"
"Give Churchill's statue the rope, see if it floats"
Yet they were never cancelled until 2025 when cancel culture started and democracies turned into dictatorships especially if you dare to speak against ISRAHELL!
The chants will not acheive anything, because they dont adress the core problem: the existence of this collective identity called the "west" which in fact defines itself though othering people and though its bloodstained history of Euro-colonialism: a brutal muderous enterprise of exploiting the rest of the world.
As long as there are lost of people who skip over their French or English or whatever history and culture, and seek to assemble under the umbrella of being "western" or "white"....well exploitation and murder will take place.
There isn't a way to get "the west" to NOT be murderous.
And the so called IDF is in fact a western colonial army.
The solution is to demobilize people from adopting this single purpose, murderous identity. It would be better if people wise up and focus removing themselves from this idenitty and bleed it of its pretense of being cultural or benign.
But these chants are really a dead end, no worse - they are taking people far up the wrong lane. It's the path the enemy WANTS you to wander into, because its better for them if people get lost and better yet many of the leaders of change can be arrested for merely emoting while getting nothing done.
You are right. The IDF is functionally a western colonial army because the U.S. and other western countries arm and sustain it. What Israel does, and the West's support of all Israel does, is a projection of Western hegemonic power. And, at the same time, a manifestation and indeed a defense of settler colonialism, upon which the hegemonic power of the West (U.S.) was built.
And true enough, merely emoting is very much the wrong response. It was in no way my intent to suggest as much. Thanks for reading and thanks very much for your comment!
Israel is irredeemable, steeped in murder and horror. Humanity has damned itself, and eliminated the justification for its continuation by allowing Israel to exist. That grisly, evil genocidal abortion of a polity needs to be annihilated entirely, exterminated.

Moral arguments are wasted on sociopaths. Reward and punishment are the only language that they understand.
Much love my friend. Well said.
As an extension of the US Military, they follow a long tradition of genocide.
