Is the Ben Gurion Canal a legitimate Zionist project ? If Israel's plan is to build a Canal as a bigger and better version than the Suez Canal....which would eventually make them a potential global player in addition to their Pacification of the Palestinian and Western people.

This latest bombing of Gaza reveals Emphatically that the Israeli far right government list their humanity a long time ago. It may as well be Artificial Intelligence robots dropping the bombs

Everyone needs to be aware of "Big Brother" (the Criminal Elite from the USA) standing at the side of Israel which is nothing more than a US military base. This has been a "PLANNED EVENT" the evidence shown 2 weeks before the attack on the 7th. The criminals from the US (I'm sure from other countries as well) are actively engaged in stealing the resources of the countries throughout the Middle East and have their eyes on the great gas deposits that the Palestinians own (but are not allowed to use!). Netanyahu is helping to steal this and showed the plan to do so 2 weeks before in a UN meeting. See the clip from the excellent journalist Richard Medhurst. The Criminal Elite from the US is currently stealing the oil right off Syrian soils and bombing the Syrian port to stop the "Silk Road".

Always the cold but raw TRUTH! I hate to see it in writing because I can also see it in real time. This is one of the most horrific things the low end of the species has ever done.

I do not deny, that the Israeli Government has not treated the Palestinians very well; The behaviour of some Israeli colonists towards Palestinians has been appalling..The idea of trying to create a Palestinian and an Israeli state has been neglected. The world thought the problem had gone away. It has not. Nevertheless the Hamas leaders knew, that their actions on 7th October would lead to horrendous suffering of their own people. Here in France the Jewish community feels threatened and synagogues and Jewish schools have been given extra police protection.. The Protestant church, where I worship every Sunday in Saint Antonin in the south of France, has been advised by the local police not to allow concerts of classical musical, when 100 people may be present, because of the danger of terrorists throwing a grenade and killing people. Thai is infinitely sad, although it is nothing compared to the suffering of so many Palestinians and Israelis..

I'm sure the old thug, Rade Karadzic, is sitting in his ICC jail cell rubbing his hands with satisfaction. Jon’s assessment is pretty much accurate because with the hate against Muslims in Europe and the harsch reprisals of people from A-stan, Syrien and Irak, countries we have been happy looting and destroying their societies, there is not much hospitality left. Our societies are rather becoming like the talmudist wasteland.

Drug addled pro genocide drivel. It really isn't worth the time thinking about it

Thank you, Jonathan! I am so exhausted and angry and sad....trying to write with obvious points against horrendous, brutal, genocidal crimes, hour after hour, day after day, like a 3rd rate movie, a bad dream....seeing the lies, the exaggerations, the obscene power of these terrorists in TelAviv, merciless fools with black hearts and giant arsenals of deadly high tech weapons...What has the western world raised into being while we were deceived with propaganda talk about 'victims who have a right to defend themselves'-? They are aggressors, not victims- they are liars and frauds, not decent and truthful, as advertised. They are driving our world into unfathomable conflict and chaos...heaping up blood debt and unending pain...all while being unwise enough to believe that they can simply continue to do it, and still find a peace at the end of their terror campaigns. The craven support of western powers and lackeys for these brutal types is the final proof that western civilizations are not civilized, that Nazi thinking is alive and well, especially in the ego-crazed zionist mind, and that the entire show of western nations with all their high minded prowess, is rotten to the core, hollow, all smoke and mirrors! They trott over to the terrorist den and deliver their sick promises of allegiance to criminals everyone can see and know their names, people who would carry a swastika if it weren't already used up, but use a star instead, shaming true jewish people around the world, while claiming another falsehood: To be the sole representatives of Jews. - And the mass murder in Gaza continues as I write these words! That is the result of unchecked power by a group of fanatics who believe that they can do whatever they want, simply because they are 'Jews', and claim victim status while they kill.

Israels current invasion of Gaza is not a ‘defensive response’; its aim is to dispel the Palestinian people entirely from the Strip and colonise it with settlers.At some point in the future Netanyahus successors,again with the collusion of the Wests politicians and media,will replicate this ethnic cleansing project on the West Bank. Then,and only then,will Israels mission be complete.

That is my point. Hamas has brought genocide - or very nearly - on its own civilian people in Gaza. Highly irresponsible. Gaza is so densely populated with numerous blocks of flats, that any aerial attacks have catastrophic results.

And the US will veto every Russian and Chinese attempt at the UN to block this genocide.

The mask is off, the lines are drawn.

Your children, if you have any, will one day ask which side of the line you were on.

So well said! Israel’s goals are crystal clear, they, obviously want to definitely erase the « Palestinian problem » even the word « Palestine » should disappear on the maps even in the memories...

However, what is appalling is the international community’s consent to such a crime...

Thank you for all this context.

Jonathan, I have a question for you is it possible that the tail is wagging the dog here and that the US and British media being controlled by Zionist NeoCons are actually driving our politicians to not have any maneuverability latitude or sympathy for the Palestinians through their broadcasts... when I listen or read the 24 hour news companies, as well as the mainstream print NYT,WaPo etc and even public radio and TV, there does not appear to be any wiggle room that any politicians might have to be somewhat even handed or at the very least put US interests first.. I know the same could be said for the British media as well… at the very least US support for Palestinian self-determination would provide a tremendous amount of support worldwide for its efforts and boost its credibility in the world, which is plummeted to an all-time low...

Your article provides clarity of what we are facing right now in Gaza. When the massacre reaches those unimaginable levels, our Western media seem to pull a veil over it, reduce the reporting and let the mass murder happen. You did describe the end game of complete ethnic cleansing and we get to watch the full horror of colonization in real time.
