John Mearsheimer has provided a solid piece (with 28 cited references) on the pure perversity and criminality against humanity by the Zionist war-machinery in Palestine that has absolutely no meaningful military purpose, other than that Gaza is to be deliberately made uninhabitable (Caitlin Johnstone; Palestine Chronicle) whilst world is witnessing the visceral visions of innocents being vaporized (Amnesty; UN News; WAFA; latimes; Nader), as Israeli strikes UNRWA shelters, demolished tunnel-ecosystem, levelled residential buildings, systematically attacking hospitals since October 7, rendering them nonfunctional while encouraging her children that 'We Will Annihilate Everyone in Gaza' (Palestine Chronicle, 14/12/23); read also, Peter Koenig, The Terror to Eliminate Palestinians from their Homeland Started in the 1930s.
Satellite analysis shows damage in southern Gaza
Unsurprising, the present generation of Israeli armed forces personnel echoes the Nazi worldview - believing they are ‘God's chosen people’ and wiping out the Palestinians is often justified by indoctrination of their children to become cold-blooded killers of the "other", (al Jazeera). To provide cover for its mass slaughter in Gaza, Israel has waged a rhetorical war of racist dehumanisation of Palestinians, exposing its obnoxious settler colonial foundation, (Middleeasteye.net; view Chris Hedges' The Genocide in Gaza 1hr 30min).
The devastation of Gaza is intensive: see Gaza destroyed by Satellite Imagery, and extensive as like The Gaza Strip Before and After Israel’s Invasion, in Satellite Images and Video, (nytimes).
According to the World Food Program’s Carl Skau, “half of the population are starving,” with “nine out of 10 are not eating every day.” With Israel blocking aid and attacking supplies, Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor says Israel’s policy “can only be described as a war of starvation against civilians in the Gaza Strip.” More than ever, a humanitarian cause, and its course, is being used ultimately as an instrument of war.
Where the ensuing unprecented and unrestrainted civilian casualties - 70% of whom are children and women, (Haaretz 09/12/23) - resulting from employing massive firepower in a "pulverizing" strategy meant to ensure maximal casualties.
Therefore, are we Getting Serious About Halting Israeli Genocide when it was the sixteenth U.S. Security Council veto since 2000 – and fourteen of those vetoes have been to shield Israel and/or U.S. policy on Israel and Palestine from international action or accountability?
That this relentless massacre can only happen because it is being backed by the US?
That the sole hegemon is left dangling by the Netanyahu-led cabal of criminals and the Triad of Imperialism Zionism and Reactionism in the 21st century.
And still, the US is continously providing, and under the just Congress passed National Defense Authorization Act 2024, besides an POTUS emergency procedure that bypassed Congress with 45000 of tank shells, the most lethal ammunitions and armoury - U.S. has provided Israel with more than 70,000 weapons since 1950 (Axios 29/11/23) - to sustain the myths of an Israeli state, (Ilan Pappé) even as that apartheid state is loosing this war (Tony Karon and Daniel Levy in The Nation). It is also no more than an
America’s undoing according to Samuel Moyn in Prospect Mag
whence the Triumphant at the end of the Cold War, the United States pledged to lead humanity in a new world order, but two concurrent conflicts - in Gaza and in Ukraine - have exposed that the hegemon has never been weaker, and therefore, to consider this weakened wimp to be demised soonest the better for humanity.
