Another great piece of writing, Jonathan! You've deconstructed the geopolitical world as it is right now so well.

And it's so disappointing that The Guardian, considered by many to be left, is spouting this colonialist garbage.

And if people are actually concerned about inaction (not of our governments, that's for sure), they can pay attention to the BDS movement and boycott Israel any chance they get. https://mondoweiss.net/2023/11/bds-is-the-most-effective-way-to-put-our-solidarity-into-action-heres-how-to-win/

JC I’ve appreciated your perspective long before substack, since you were offering private tours! Can you advise me the most effective way to donate to the Palestinian people? Thank you. Please email directly as I won’t see in comments

In the 30s’ came to power a supremacist entity which wanted to exterminate a people, then just like now, the world’s leaders did their best to cover up the atrocities and justify the brutality and warcrimes .

At the same time, they continued to make deals, finance and endorse the supremacist entity

Then the images and news of the horrors came out, and the people marched on their parliaments and courthouses, to demand justice.

I guess you know how that went for the supremacists and their powerful army.

Humanity will not obey to the rule of genocide, it will disassemble it.

Here something about humanity and obeying

Good people disobey bad rules.

Don’t fall in the dehumanization game and fight back.

Question: How do you "upsurge" genocide?

Jonathan, your love, your courage, your knowledge educate and inspire me and the people of the world. The courageous resistance of our Palestinian People and the sustained actions from millions and millions of people across the world have the power to create change and the tide is turning against the terrorist Israelis and complicit. Who will be put on trial in the ICC for war crimes.

There is Not violent solution! The process of liberation is Irresistible and Irreversible!

Palestine will be Free , Independent and Beautiful!

Insightful as always. Different context but a similar imperialist playbook is being used to justify destruction of indigenous communities in the name of carbon offsets e.g. https://open.substack.com/pub/reddmonitor/p/it-destroys-everything-says-indigenous

It should be plain to any but the most uninformed observer that this is a U.S. proxy war aimed at weakening resistance throughout the region. The Palestinians have long been a thorn in Washington's side, providing an anchor and rallying point for popular opposition to the Pax Americana so necessary for U.S. hegemony. With their disappearance the last obstacle to the vaunted Abraham Accords will have been removed.

Not a single Palestinian death falls outside the ledger of American statecraft. Israel is merely the sharp instrument used to cut out Washington's designs. Talk of bringing Israel before the ICJ without indicting the White House, Congress, Pentagon, and corporate media is the equivalent of charging a knife with first degree murder. The Biden administration wants the Palestinians gone. Finished. Permanently. Nothing else in this diplomatic danse macabre makes sense. There's no need for us to sit around scratching our heads on this one. The genocide is coming from Washington.

Wow, I mean anyone with half of a brain would not only understand but agree with your assessment of the situation.

It is as obvious as the blood on Biden, and Netanyahu’s hands

Oh. This is the plan. Every Internet connection, phone line, DNA line, biometric data point, blood type tracked by the Jews of the world now. Dell and Oracle and Thiel and Google and Pegasus and on and on, from Fucker Berg to Sam Altman, all part of the plan. There's no agony. Americans are born thespians, liars, PT Barnum's.

Excellent reporting. We have learned to spot the slanted writing of mainstream media reports quite accurately now. The invented comparisons, the subtle smears, the western-only perspective.

All those words are not enough to hide the author’s own biases. Calling the recent acts of war genocide is pure newspeek, a popular sport among “independent” journalists. If this even was a genocide you would have to count both sides responsible. And the puppet masters who draw the strings not only from Washington but also from the Kremlin. Speaking of which ... ...

As that arm was raised by the US representative at the UN to refute the call for a ceasefire, a lone act, an act of supreme cowardice and sickening indifference to the plight and pleas from thousands of women and children being murdered, one must pray that a moment has been reached when the rest of the world sees the moral depravity of a US administration that seeks to employ it's own rules and throws to the nation's of the earth empty and hollow words. That lone arm raised up high was an awakening call to others, listen no longer to our words because we've long since hollowed out their meaning.

The Global South “I am Spartacus” moment.

Thank you, Mr. Cook, for such enlightening insights.

The "new limits" imposed to the Empire domination, challenged by Russia in Euronazistan, and by China in Asia, unleashed the monster's worst traits, as it was expected from a wounded beast convulsing into a certain death.

To quote our beloved Gramsci,

“The old world is dying. A new world is struggling to be born. Now is the time for monsters."

And the Collective West-created Frankenstein, the beast of the Middle East, turned out to be that monster, to be used by the CW at whim in a vain attempt to stop the new sun of a multipolar world from waking up over most of humanity.

The “Perfect Storm” unleashed upon the Palestinian people, has been brewing for decades, October 7 was the rise of Spartacus delivering a message, “We know your extermination plans, we will stop you.” Oil, gas, the “Ben-Gurion” channel, and the prospect of Israel becoming a hub for the IMEC (India-Middle East-Europe Corridor), are the real reasons behind the carnage unleashed by Israel, backed by the CW, in Gaza.

Netanyahu came handy to play the role of butcher, as politically he is a dead man walking, to be disposed once done with the ethnic cleansing. A new butcher with a human face will whitewash Netanyahu’s crimes, and Gaza’s memory will be buried into the foundations of a “New Gaza,” where Palestinians will exist only as serfs of the, ahem, “chosen people.”

The manipulation of the CW’s presstitute MSM is nothing new. The creation of a “hyperreality” by means of superimposing another “reality” devoid of any truth to cover what is real, numbing the senses with a “clean” imagery of the butcher’s job, is the work of presstitutes like “the Guardian.” Using “horrifying” images of “jungle” atrocities (Syria, Sudan, Russia, China, et al), make the carnage of the CW looks “clean and necessary” to stop the “mass atrocities” from reaching the “garden” (Borrell.)

The ”global inaction” concept is a clear example of guilt-gaslighting the masses to believe not enough is getting done against the perps of these “mass atrocities,” making them feel justified the genocide in Gaza is the only way to stop the “jungle niggers” from unleashing more atrocities.

The harrowing images of Gaza’s children torn to pieces, do not take their sleep away.
