The Criminal State of Israel continues to initiate acts of war against states that are not at war with Israel. The most recent was an Israeli attack on a residential building in Qatar. Qatar’s Foreign Ministry accused Israel of “state terrorism.”
A residential building is a place where people reside. Israel’s criminal action managed to kill six Qatari citizens, but not the Hamas leaders Israel allegedly was targeting.
Israel’s ambassador to Washington, Yechiel Leiter, described Israel’s enemies as “enemies of Western civilization,” but Hamas has made no attacks on Western civilization. Leiter dismissed Israel’s critics with “they’ll get over it,” they always do. To calm the troubled waters Leiter played Israel’s US card: “Israel has never had a better friend in the White House and Washington and Israel are united in seeking the destruction of Hamas.”
Leiter summed up: “If we didn’t get them this time, we’ll get them the next time.”
Qatar has joined Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, and the United States if you believe those who explain that Israel was involved in the murder of President John F. Kennedy as countries that are victims of Israel’s self-righteous aggression. Yet Israel remains protected by the US, UK, EU, and the rest of the Western world, by most of what little remains of the Arab world, and by Putin. Yet Russia is demonized for protecting Russians in the Russian areas of Ukraine from massacre by neo-Nazis. How have Ukrainian neo-Nazis, financed and supported by Washington and Israel, avoided the demonization applied to Hamas? Hamas is fighting for its own country–Palestine, which has been destroyed by Israel armed with US money, weapons, and diplomatic cover.
Currently Israel and the Zionist neoconservatives who have wormed their way into US foreign policy are pressuring President Trump–“Israel’s greatest friend”–to use nuclear weapons against Iran, a country who has done nothing to the US but nevertheless is under US sanctions and threats imposed at Israel’s insistence. The “powerful American superpower” cannot even control its own foreign policy. The blustering, threatening Trump doesn’t dare threaten Israel.
Get ready for Israel’s next war–Washington’s military attack on Iran. Russia and China, by leaving Iran unprotected, have invited the attack.
Let us further compare the West’s treatment of Russia compared to its treatment of Israel. Poland has asked NATO to invoke “Article Four” against Russia for allegedly violating Poland’s air space. No attack was made on Poland. Moreover, the alleged drone incursions came from Belarus, not Russia, and Belarus warned Poland in advance that some drones had “lost their track as a result of the impact of the parties’ electronic warfare assets.” “This allowed the Polish side to respond promptly to the actions of the drones by scrambling their forces on duty,” said General Pavel Muraveiko, the chief of the general staff of Belarus.
So, Poland wants Article Four invoked against Russia for a non-event, but it is anti-semitic to complain of Israel’s genocide of Palestine, both the people and the country, and Israel’s military/assassination attacks on other countries. Clearly, the future of freedom does not reside in such a corrupt Western world.
