Video/Report: Israelis in the Media

I was initially hesitant about even watching this video even though the channel / media outlet usually does good work. The title is rather sensational sounding, but more importantly, it triggered a red flag for the antisemitic conspiracy theory that Jews are in control of everything, so it turned me off at first. Exposed: Israeli Spies in U.S. Media Manufacture Consent for Genocide and Empire. I was pleasantly surprised to hear them specifically explain that what they are talking about is not at all like that antisemitic conspiracy theory. In fact, what they are talking about is precisely the sort of thing—one of many things—that I was trying to refer to in my recent post No, Israel doesn’t “control” the U.S.

Marking people with numbers

 The Zionazis are gathering severely starved and dehydrated people into big pits and marking them with NUMBERS. What does that remind you of??!!


It could not get any clearer that the IOF and the Zionists are fucking Nazis! And the U.S. govt—my own fucking government!—couldn’t be more gleeful in their support, facilitation, and participation in the genocide, ethnic cleansing, and holocaust of the Palestinians and now the Lebanese and Syrians, in other words, the indigenous people of the Levant! 

This must be stopped, now, whatever it takes!

Looks like we all now know how the fucking Nazis were able to rise to power and commit mass atrocities! 

The U.S. needs regime change, because the U.S. govt has gone full blown fascist oligarchical authoritarianism.

Humanity’s ultimate test, and humanity is failing.

If you cannot see that what Israel is doing—with the unconditional help and participation of the U.S.—is genocide and ethnic cleansing and a holocaust, then you are dead to me. I am not required to sympathize with genocide deniers and apologists. These grotesque, savage, brutal, despicable and macabre crimes against fellow human beings who are Palestinian are unforgivable. The world right now is against you. History will judge you even more harshly. Is that the legacy you want to leave behind? A legacy of being even more evil and hateful than the Nazis of WWII? Because that is how you will be remembered. We will make sure of that, and that the truth is not covered up.

No one can plead ignorance later. No one can say they didn’t know. You are not privy to that excuse when the videos and images and genocidal declarations are being daily uploaded or livestreamed to the internet for over a year now by both the victims and the perpetrators themselves who shamelessly boast of what they are doing. 

This will not stop until the rest of the world forces Israel and the U.S. to stop. Or it will be too late.

Bisan’s recent update on North of Gaza

Watch this all the way through to the end. 

No, Israel doesn’t “control” the U.S.

 **See my “disclaimer” at the end.**

Surely we should have all learned by now not to trust anything the U.S. federal government tells us. Surely no one believes the Biden-Harris administration suddenly had a revelation about Israel’s brutal and unbelievably savage genocide of the Palestinians? Not only are they now suddenly (supposedly) very concerned about Israel’s policy of starvation and no medical care, they have pretty much admitted that they’ve known full well that Israel has been deliberately blocking humanitarian aid from entering Gaza. 


Don’t believe for a second that they are actually considering the possibility of withholding military supplies and weapons unless Israel makes sure humanitarian aid gets into northern Gaza. That’s not a sincere threat, that’s theater. What is happening is what the U.S. wants. Those at the top in the U.S. govt genuinely don’t fucking care about Palestinians’ lives and welfare, because the racism is deeply bred into them. 


I mean, come on, just look at how the U.S. govt treats its own citizens!

Israel is bad for the environment

 I forgot I had wanted to write something about this, but it’s important enough to point it out. Yes, Israel is bad for the environment: they have been committing ecocide for decades. You don’t have to take my word for it; it’s easy enough to look up and find publications on it prior to Oct 7. 

The Democratic Party in D.C. have betrayed humanity.

They have shown their true colors, blood red and charcoal grey.

He died a hero and a martyr.

Yes, I am saying it, Yahya Sinwar was neither a terrorist nor a coward. He was a freedom fighter, a hero, and a martyr. And no amount of hasbara and gaslighting can cover that up. The video the IOF themselves released literally demonstrates that he was a courageous and generous freedom fighter, a hero, and a martyr. Only those who’ve already drank the zionist cult kool-aid could watch that video and not see that. 

I have so much to say… just been slowed down lately by chronic health issues, and it’s certainly no help watching the sickest and most brutal genocide occur right in front of us all…

One year.

(Yes, I’m posting this late.) Today it has been one full year since the Al-Aqsa Flood operation, planned and carried out by Al-Qassam of Hamas against the oppressive occupying entity “Israel”. 

Right now I am supposed to be preparing for the major Hurricane Milton whose path I am literally sitting right in the center of. I am extremely lucky that I am far enough inland that I don’t have to worry about storm surge, and that my mother’s house is a solid structure, and that flooding due to torrential rain and ground saturation is still just down the street from us. 

In all honesty, I am having a hard time thinking about anything but the genocide (& etc) in Gaza, West Bank, and now Lebanon.

Don’t look away

Don’t look away from Gaza, and the West Bank, and Jerusalem. The IOF takes advantage of people’s attention being drawn elsewhere. Their massacres of Palestinians are still very numerous and brutal. And the Lebanese are being attacked precisely because they refuse to look away from Gaza and are standing up for the Palestinians. These people are such beautiful people, such honorable people. 

I told you…

I told you the resistance is ready.

Day one Zionazi troops actually try to enter Lebanon, and Hizbollah turns them right back around. Not a good start for the Zionazi IOF.

The Terrorism of Western supremacy, imperialism and hypocrisy

What do I even say? How do I even begin? The terrorist regime of the Zionist occupying entity called “Israel” is carrying out a massacre on the people of Lebanon too. Slaughtering Palestinians isn’t enough, apparently. It is incomprehensible to me, both the horrors the Palestinians and Lebanese are going through and the mindset capable of carrying it out or supporting and justifying it. 
Watching this, and watching the world watch this, and watching my government pretend it’s not happening and pretend they’re so unaware and uninvolved while they facilitate it, and hearing the way people talk about it, the words they choose to use: this has put me in a state of so much stress and anxiety, anguish and grief, disgust and despair, and visceral outrage, that I sometimes start shaking.

To start with, for the record, Hassan Nasrallah was not a terrorist. Do not refer to Hizbollah as a “terrorist organization”.

Hizbollah’s hiding missiles in my house!

The IOF are not targeting Hizbollah sites. They say that, but that is not what they are doing. That’s just gaslighting, and a weak attempt to avoid liability for the consequences of their attacks. Do they really believe they are fooling anyone? How absurd are their gaslighting and hasbara going to get?


The IOF make public announcements and call and text people in Lebanon and send radio messages to warn everyone in the south of Lebanon: if you are located near a site used by Hizbollah, or there are Hizbollah rockets or weapons in your home or the building you are in, you are at risk of being bombed and so you need to evacuate north for your safety.


Because, you know, it’s just common knowledge where the sites are that Hizbollah uses for anything. 


Are you fucking stupid?

Actually, no, Hamas do NOT use “human shields”

Let’s dismantle the claim that Hamas use civilian Palestinians as “human shields” by embedding themselves within the civilian population and infrastructure, and that this is the reason why the civilian death toll in Gaza is so absurdly high. That is, the high death toll is Hamas’s fault, not the fault of Israel and the IOF who are the ones doing the actual killing. First, I will give you a bunch of reasons why we should believe the “human shields” claim is false. Then I will tell you how we can know definitively that it is false, and that the IOF are indeed targeting the civilian population, instead of civilian deaths being mere “collateral damage”.

I just have to say, it is grossly embarrassing how much the U.S. government and Zionists and genocide apologists think we are all very stupid and incapable of looking with our own eyes and figuring out what is really going on. If we took how they describe the situation and switched out the location and the people involved to be anywhere in the West, nobody would ever in their right mind claim what they are now trying to convince us about Hamas and the IOF.

Lebanon has a right to defend itself

Israel is attacking Lebanon, not the other way around, and that’s obvious to anyone. Israel is striking first, not Lebanon, not Hizbollah, Israel is attacking first. The U.S. government has said several times it will only come to Israel’s aid to defend it, not aid it in a war it started. But now let’s see how quickly they go back on their word, and come up with some half-baked concocted and logically twisted claims that somehow it was Hizbollah who started it and now the U.S. must defend Israel. 

Israel must be stopped. And the U.S. government must be stopped. It is Israel and the U.S. government who are the terrorists and promote violence.

I can only hope I can find a way to move out of this country in the not too distant future. But practically debilitating chronic health issues make that quite challenging, since I am not lucky enough to come from the wealth and privilege that would allow me access to do that. So I don’t have any clue how I will make that happen, but I have to get out of this country at some point, because I cannot stand what the U.S. government has done and is doing to so much of the rest of the world. Sure, not everything is bad, but most of it is, especially in these recent times.

Terrorist attack on Lebanon

Do you condemn terrorism against a civilian population? 
Make no mistake: the explosions in pagers and other devices in Lebanon is a terrorist attack by Israel. And I have no doubt the U.S. government knew about it and played some role in it. Israeli citizens are literally online cheering and mocking and viciously laughing at the Lebanese who were injured and killed! If China or Russia had done something like that, the U.S. government would be screaming about how horrific of an attack of terrorism it was, and they’d be condemning it and demanding everyone condemn such a despicable and cowardly attack. But because it’s Israel, we play dumb and uninformed and are “concerned”. Fuck you, Blinken and Biden, and Sullivan and Hochstein too. Not only are you disgusting, but you will be to blame when we get attacked on our own soil. And we fucking deserve it! I will not be surprised when it happens. Nor when Zionism is what destroys your precious American Empire.

Just a bit of health advice

Don’t become anemic! It’s really frustrating and not always easy to come back from. Especially when the cause of the anemia is something you can’t really avoid, like for example, a certain medication you absolutely need, so you keep falling back into anemia. :( I never expected anemia would be something I would struggle with.

I feel like I’ve not slept in ten months

My head is so jumbled with rage and disgust and grief and angst and so many images and thoughts about the ongoing genocide in Gaza, it’s nearly impossible for me to focus enough to write. Never before has racism so deeply shocked me to my core. I think because this racism is different from any other kind of racism; it is so specific, it is so contextual, it often feels it reaches the level of malicious. But it also comes with an amount and level of gaslighting and propaganda like nothing else. Of course we’ve experienced gaslighting and propaganda against blacks here in the U.S., for example regarding police brutality or intelligence. But the racist gaslighting and propaganda against Palestinians (in Palestine) feels, across the board, so deeply personal in its vitriolic viciousness. 

I am so enraged and disgusted watching the spokespeople for the U.S. government still to this day, after ten months of the most brutal and savage genocide, so condescendingly dismiss the ever increasing numbers of Palestinians slaughtered and gruesomely injured to bring up Oct 7 again, to emphasize Oct 7, to keep redirecting our attention to Oct 7, to keep trying to drill it into our heads that Palestinian lives just don’t matter nearly as much as Israeli lives do. They brazenly stand up there and keep bringing up Oct 7. In the face of the unspeakable horrific atrocities that Israel is committing and that the U.S. is helping them commit against the Palestinians in Gaza, they insist that we not pay attention to that, because Oct 7, because Hamas, because Israel must defend itself. 


I keep not posting my writing because I want to put my thoughts into a coherent order. After all, I am trying to lay out an argument, to make a case.

This is a mistake if I want to get anything posted and put out there. So I really just need to ditch presenting in a coherent order and just write and post whatever I can. 

(It wouldn’t be so challenging if I weren’t daily fighting against my conditions. And I know that sounds trite in comparison to what Palestinians are going through. And it is. I know that, with my conditions, I would not have survived long in Gaza after Oct 7.) 


sigh…

Israel is sick

How sick does a society have to be in order to be openly in favor of torture without any restriction whatsoever? Including rape, raping men, women, and children—yes, they’re raping children—raping people to death, raping men with electrified metal rods! Perhaps even raping them with dogs, though I don’t know if that is confirmed, but no one would be surprised at this point if they were doing that too. Israel is the sickest and most sadistic regime, they are utterly disgusting. How could any nation be proud of torture?! And such sick sick torture. They are psychopaths, sick serial killers.
Polio has been confirmed to be in Gaza now, too. Nice job, Israel. If there’s an outbreak of polio, or any other infectious disease currently spreading in Gaza because of the savage cruelty of Israel, the whole world will know who to blame.

Hamas & the Resistance are winning

How do we know that Hamas and the Resistance are winning against the IOF and Israel? Because the IOF admits they are running out of tanks. How could they be running out of tanks?! Because so many of them have been damaged or destroyed beyond repair in Gaza. How did that happen? Hamas and PIJ fighters are damaging and destroying them with their “homemade” weapons. 

The Resistance puts out video clips everyday. But many people have doubted the videos showing them damaging and destroying tanks, saying the explosions aren’t really penetrating the armor or that they are really part of the tank’s defense system. If that were true, and that all the video clips of the IOF hauling off the damaged tanks afterwards are somehow faked, then the IOF wouldn’t be running out of tanks. But they are. 

Hamas and the Resistance are winning. 🇵🇸

Good Riddance, Joe

Fuck Joe Biden. I’m glad they got him to withdraw from the presidential race, he was surely going to lose. But everyone tripping over themselves to say how much they love him and what a great guy he is and he’s done so much for the country and… disgusting! Fuck them, they’re sycophants and they have no real moral principles. Joe Biden is Genocide Joe, a war criminal gleefully participating and facilitating a genocide against the Palestinians. I don’t care what his career has been like, he has revealed his true colors, and his true color is white supremacy! 


I don’t care that he chose a black-Indian woman to be his VP and put a black woman onto the Supreme Court. I’m glad he did so, but that doesn’t “prove” he’s not racist. His unwavering Zionist imperialist genocidal war-mongering against the Palestinians reveals his deeply rooted racism. I once bought into the propaganda of Joe Biden as being an anti-racist, genuinely fighting for social justice and equality, and as being a good person, compassionate, etc. All that was completely obliterated in less than a month—too long, really, but I kept giving him the benefit of the doubt—by his support for and participation in Israel’s brutal and savage war and genocide against Gaza and the Palestinians.


So fuck Joe Biden and good riddance. 


And fuck all the sycophants praising him over and over again. Joe Biden has revealed himself to be no different than Trump in being egotistical and authoritarian and obsessed with power. And the Democratic establishment have revealed themselves to be corrupted sycophants no different from the Republicans.

Trump assassination attempt makes an excellent distraction from genocide

I have to say this. Because it’s ridiculous, in a dark and twisted way. Especially given what looks like grave incompetence in the Secret Service. With the very high numbers of Palestinians the IOF have slaughtered the past few days, I cannot help thinking, half jokingly, that somehow Netanyahu—or perhaps Ben-Givr or Smotrich—is behind the assassination attempt on Trump, to give the U.S. such an extreme distraction we cannot take our eyes and ears off of, so that we stop paying attention to the U.S. backed Israel genocide against the Palestinians, at least for a little while. I am half joking, because I honestly wouldn’t put it past them to actually do something like that. Yes, I know Netanyahu wants Trump to win, but he’s starting to have bigger problems, and he knows it’s still a good bet that no matter who the U.S. President is, they’ll let him and Israel basically do whatever the fuck they want. Additionally, regardless of whether the assassination attempt were successful or not, it might also stir up the violent feelings and attitudes that Americans tend to have in spades, which might then morph into feeling more supportive of Israel’s mass murdering Palestinians everyday. 

Just sayin’, it’s not impossible…
