It’s scandalously repugnant to think the tragic assassination of seven World Central Kitchen (WCK) aid workers by the IDF last week could spark greater outrage amongst Western leaders than the slaughter of more than 33,000 innocent Palestinian children, women, and men.
For six months I have been following the genocide. Daily. Watching beautiful men dig with their hands to rescue children they did not know from rubble of their homes. I spent a sleepless night watching journalist Motaz's Twitter feed as he stayed quiet in his darkened home while a monitor drone hovered over his front door torturing him with sound. Netanyahu the monster and his occupation forces have targeted a culture, assassinating surgeons, scholars, authors, poets, artists, entrepeneurs, clergy. Bombing universities, mosques, hospitals, libraries, schools. Bombing whole residential blocks. Real estate is already being sold to American Jewish Zionists while US government drewls over oil. We're a pathetic lot.
The silence over these past 6 months over the intentional murdering and a destruction of an entire race of people has been disgusting , and heartbreaking . The horror that has been clearly visible for the world to see over the past 6 months (due to the bravery and risks taken by Gazans and photo journalists on the ground )has been shocking . Is it not enough to learn about the massacres as Al Shifa hospital ? ( almost completely overshadowed by the assasination of the aid workers ) the moral compass of the western world is f-Ed
I thought naively if I posted enough about the children, the women the losses of life and their homes and culture that it would at least shake the world and psyches of those in my reach to inform ! How wrong I have been . How mistaken . This is racism in its highest ugliest form . Thank you for this necessary and true journalism . I am so sick of the apathy, inaction and silence .
Arrogantly bold when the world hasn’t held them accountable for 6 months or 80 years. Sure they are going to send a message to aid agencies, look how the BS around UNRWA went off without a hitch.
It’s not lost on many that the targeted assault on WCK happened as the atrocities at Al Shifa hospital were coming to light. No one at the global leader level is talking about the brutality found on the scene. Israeli state shifted the focus to the next dare that they didn’t even expect to have to lie this much about.
No surprise it takes the non brown dead bodies for the Israeli objective to backfire even slightly. As shitty as that is, let it save the lives of humans and let it showcase the truth of evil. Each person in life or death will have to confront its soul on the value of humanity and its secret (not secret) qualifiers.
staggeringly, sidereally, electrifyingly brilliant exegesis, george. thank you for your humanitarian clarity and your supernal capacity to express it for the rest of us impuissant, tramontane outliers who remain w/ naught but a beating heart and a functioning cortex. our benighted species need more writers of your preternatural calibre.
Western leaders have failed Palestinians and everyone who wants the genocide to stop. Ordinary people are still taking to the streets, boycotting and doing all we can to stop this slaughter.
When this is all over, people will be evaluating their countries' leadership, recognizing the profound disconnect between the values of citizens and our political leaders. I think we'll be actively seeking out more accurate representation of the values we hold.
It is appalling that 33,000 brown lives—half of them children—are met with pretence at hand-wringing and toeing the Israeli line of yeah well maybe they were Hamas. It is appalling on the one hand that 6 non-brown deaths have incensed the West. On the other hand, let's say they're the last straw. These deaths stand on the shoulders of the 33,000. Andres is a familiar face in Washington, and has long coordinated, not to say collaborated, with the IDF. That the IDF have shat on his organisation proves they don't give a monkey's about anyone. From now on, no one, not even CNN, can credibly say otherwise.
Your article on the intentional murder of the 7 WFK members trying to deliver aid to Gaza is brilliant; and hopefully finally open the eyes to those that cling to willful violence.
I have s forwarded your article to many people still “siting on the fence” and those with moral clarity.
Why? Because the modern premillennial dispensation has no room for Muslims. God’s wonderful love and saving grace and John 3:16 are now secondary doctrines that are boring and can’t live up to the excitement of aggression and war.

That “Israelis need to get their lies in order”
Is perfect.

The Jewish Settlers terrorizing and killing West Bank Palestinians with impunity are the latest incarnation of Hitler's Brown Shirts!
Someone put it well: "Israel kills five white people and just like that, news coverage switched to active voice!"
This was Laura K at Normal Island News.
The WCK convoy was targeted just as the USS Liberty was targeted in 1967

Cannot see the sky.
Is this the price
