Bitter Harvests: The Gaza Ceasefire
Twinning the terms “ceasefire” and “Gaza” seems not only incongruous but an obscene joke. This is largely because the ceasefire announced on January 15 between Israel and Hamas could have been reached so much earlier by all the concerned parties. But will was lacking in Washington to force Israel’s hand, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin […]

In Gaza, the West Extols the Suffering of the Executioners
A CNN article on the suicide of an Israeli soldier who served in Gaza laments the psychological toll of the horrors inflicted by the occupying army — but not from the victims’ perspective, only that of the perpetrators. It even goes so far as to pity the soldier’s inability to eat meat after bulldozing over […]

To Turn a Secular Democracy into a Jewish Autocracy
I am always leery of hubris. It may be true that all people of good now want ‘the fall’ of Israel, after a century of lies, deceit, killing and more killing, first by the British and European Jews, then by the US and European Jews, now by Britain-US-EU-Israel and European and Arab Jews.

The US Sends Troops to Israel
The dangers should be plastered on every wall in every office occupied by a military and political advisor. Israel’s attempt to reshape the Middle East, far from giving it enduring security, will merely serve to make it more vulnerable and unstable than ever. In that mix and mess will be its greatest sponsor and guardian, […]

Who Wants to Kill and Die for the American Empire?

The Democratic Party Conventional Convention
President Joe Biden read the tea leaves, and, from the periphery of the political system, Vice President (VP) Kamala Harris abruptly emerged as the Democratic candidate for President of the United States of America. The American public knew that Kamala Harris was VP, was not sure of how to pronounce her first name, and was […]

A Return to Form: Expediting US Arms to Israel
Despite much grandstanding in the Biden administration about halting specific arms shipments to Israel over feigned concerns about how they might be used (inflicting death is the expected form), US military supplies have been restored with barely a murmur. In a report in Haaretz on August 29, a rush of weapons to Israel has been […]
