US/Israeli terror: Wild dogs are devouring the victims of Israel’s Bombing Raids

THE WORLD'S POPULATION WILL NEVER FORGET NOR FORGIVE THIS!

THE MASKS ARE TOTALLY OFF: THE WHOLE US/ISRAELI FAÇADE HAS BURNT DOWN.

FPF/HR comment: In nearly every 'Bill of Rights' or Constitution in most of the 190 countries around the earth, it says that one must - one is obliged by law - to 'resist evil occupiers'. That fight is NOT terrorism, but totally justified resistance. In this case against the US/Israeli 'managers' of the Axis of Evil - holocausting us and our planet.

Take The Netherlands, my European fiefdom of birth for instance: even if a majority of the 16 million inhabitants of The Netherlands abhors the inhuman American/Israeli war of terror and their genocides, it is the same misery as in most other countries which the evildoers control. The US/israeli 'managers' running the country steal mind and money from the people. Poverty is growing in one of the richest countries on earth because they steal most which is not too hot or too big to handle. And the poor people? The thieves controll the media and permanent propaganda, and the paying people are for the most kept out of the loop.

The by the taxpayers everywhere paid employees - like most civil servants and political personnel in so called 'governments' - those war criminals not only openly endorse the terror, but use secret agreements and billions of extorted taxmoney to support and take part in the war crimes. Without the people wanting - and most of us not even knowing this. We are forced to pay for their serial killing-for-profit, and they do not care if they also murder their own people.*

Being used to logical thinking, only one thing comes to mind: those murdering warmongers must be stopped by any and all means. The soldiers - now used like a Kleenex as cannon fodder - should turn their weapons around and go for them! If they have any guts, brain and decency left. The least they can do - like we all - is defend their family and what is left of their country. And never let this vermin get near again.

SINCE THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT LAW OR CONVENTIONS: WHY SHOULD WE?

Terrorists like the US/Israeli war machine should suffer every form of resistance we can muster. And everywhere. In every corner of every country on the globe the terrorists of the US/Israeli 'Coalition of the Killing' must be attacked and neutralized.

IS THE ONLY LANGUAGE THIS DEADLY PEST FOR HUMAN BEINGS UNDERSTANDS VIOLENCE?

Or do they really think that their slaughter can go on? So we should just behave like lambs to be robbed and shorn, and than as naked as a sheared sheep be slaughtered?

Get rid of them before they get rid of you! They are murdering terrorists and must be taken out.

HOW THE HELL DID THEY EVER THINK THAT THEY CAN SURVIVE THIS?

We are six-and-a-half billion people, and they? - They must surely understand: they already have killed millions of people, so now it should be their turn. They are not even wild dogs: they have rabies! And responsible for this:


WILD DOGS ARE DEVOURING THE VICTIMS OF ISRAEL’S BOMBING RAIDS

Mike Whitney

July 22, 2006 - "Lebanon carpenters are running out of wood for coffins. Bodies are stacked 3 or 4 feet high at the hospital morgue. The stench is spreading in the rubble. The morbid reality of Israel’s bombing campaign is reaching almost every corner of the city… On Thursday, the wild dogs gnawed at the charred remains of a family bombed as they were trying to escape the village." Hassan Fattah, New York Times

"The complicity of the American public in these heinous crimes will damn America for all time in history." Paul Craig Roberts; "The Shame of being an American"

For more than a week Israel has been raining down terror on the Lebanon’s unprotected cities and towns. So far, more than 1,200 sites have been completely destroyed laying to waste most of the country’s civilian infrastructure and triggering a humanitarian crisis. The death toll, currently at 350, continues to mount while the number of displaced civilians is estimated at more than 500,000.

We know now that Israel’s plan of attack was "finalized more than a year ago" and that Hezbollah’s capturing of the 2 Israeli soldiers was merely a pretext to execute their strategy. Gerald Steinberg, professor of political science at Bar-Ilan University clarified this point saying, "Of all Israel’s wars since 1948, this was the one for which Israel was most prepared. In a sense, the preparation began in 2000, immediately after the Israeli withdrawal."

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, "More than a year ago, a senior Israeli army officer began giving Power-point presentations, on an off-the-record basis, to US and other diplomats, journalists and think-tanks, setting out the plan for the current operation in revealing detail."

Although this simply confirms what most serious analysts suspected from the beginning, it is still interesting on many levels. For one thing, we can be sure that top ranking officials in the Bush administration (including George Bush) not only knew of the plan, but tacitly endorsed the invasion of a friendly country who posed no threat to national security. We can also assume that the battle-plans were carefully orchestrated with Washington so that Bush could co-opt the leaders at the G-8 meetings while Israel pummeled its vulnerable neighbor. Again, this shows the appalling degree of cynicism in the Bush foreign policy strategy.

The SF Chronicle article also demonstrates the extent to which the media is integrated into the machinery of state power. The fact that select "journalists" were provided with information about future aggression against non-threatening states shows that the administration places great value on the preparation of propaganda for major events like the destruction of Lebanon.

The media’s carefully crafted message; chock-full of the usual "buzz-words" and "talking points" (nb. "Israel is fighting a war on 2 fronts"; "Israel has the right to defend itself"; "Syria and Iran are the cause of the violence") follows the predictable pattern of emphasizing Israeli "victim-hood" while lashing out against future enemies without any evidence of wrongdoing. Nearly every one of the 4,000 or so articles covering the violence, use the very same talking points in describing events on the ground. It is a shocking reminder of the woeful state of modern corporate media which advances an elite agenda through the intentional dissemination of misinformation. In the present crisis, much of the public support for Israeli aggression can be directly attributed to the manipulation of language and facts appearing in the media.

(We should note that, so far, there is no proof that either Iran or Syria is directly involved in the hostilities and that, more importantly, it is American ordinance in the control of Israeli pilots that is pelting-down on the blameless civilians in Lebanon. Neither Iran nor Syria are in any way responsible for the carnage in Lebanon.)

According to the Chronicle, Israeli officials expect a 3 week campaign. Targeted bombing is to be followed by commando raids and a ground offensive, but the situation is "fluid" and plans will undoubtedly be modified to meet the changes in conditions on the ground. Already, we can see that 500,000 mostly poor Shiites have been uprooted in the south and "ethnically cleansed" from the area. Israel’s 20 mile buffer-zone to the Litani River is tantamount to occupation and will preclude many of these refugees to returning to their homes.

Israel’s invasion can be expected to reenergize the ethnic and religious rivalries which resulted in Lebanon’s civil war which killed an estimated 70,000 Lebanese nationals. Apparently, no price is too high to pay to ensure that Israel can establish a client regime in Beirut that will function at the behest of Tel Aviv.

Once again, all of the details were clearly worked out with members of the Bush administration prior to the invasion. Obviously, they were given Washington’s blessing. Since the hostilities broke out, the Bush administration has publicly given the "green light" to Israeli aggression and successfully blocked all diplomatic efforts to achieve a "cease-fire". The international community is now as much a hostage of Bush’s preemptive doctrine as the frightened Lebanese civilians cowering in their underground shelters in Beirut.

The New York Times reported on Saturday that Bush was "rushing a delivery of precision-guided bombs to Israel" to guarantee that the killing can continue nonstop and that whatever is left of Lebanon’s frayed infrastructure will be swiftly pounded into dust.

MAKE NO MISTAKE, THE VAST DESTRUCTION OF THE ONCE-BUSTLING METROPOLIS AND THE OCEAN OF SUFFERING CAUSED BY THE UNPROVOKED ISRAELI AIR-ASSAULT, IS A JOINT-OPERATION FACILITATED BY THE WASHINGTON WARLORDS AS MUCH AS ANYONE IN TEL AVIV.

In an op-ed piece today in the New York Times, neoconservative chieftain, Richard Perle provided a lurid summary of the present strategy:

"Israel must now deal a blow of such magnitude to those who would destroy it as to leave no doubt that its earlier policy of acquiescence is over. This means precise military action against Hezbollah and its infrastructure in Lebanon and Syria, for as long as it takes and without regard to mindless diplomatic blather about proportionality."

Perle’s statement is, in fact, an apt description the Bush-Olmert battle-plan for Lebanon. It tells us that, despite the failures in Iraq and Afghanistan, the two leaders still believe they can achieve a political solution through the (exclusive) use of overwhelming force. There is no moral or ethical component to the present policy, nor is there any wiggle-room for negotiation or diplomacy. (Condoleezza Rice’s trip is purely for public relations purposes)

It is simply violence as a political-panacea removed from any rational alternative.

3 years in Iraq and 39 years of unrelenting bloodshed in Palestine, have taught them nothing.

Lebanon is shaping up to be another dismal chapter in the chronicle of colonial atrocities.

AMERICAN/ISRAELI TERROR: The Most Dangerous Alliance in the World

REMEMBER ALL THOSE WHO COLLABORATED OR WERE SILENT, ALL THE PUPPETS AND PROPAGANDISTS.

ALL THOSE NOT PROTESTING THE ONGOING AMERICAN/ISRAELI TERROR AGAINST US ALL.

REMEMBER THEM: BECAUSE THE TIDE ALWAYS TURNS...


The Most Dangerous Alliance in the World

''THOSE TO WHOM EVIL IS DONE / DO EVIL IN RETURN''

By Norman Solomon - t r u t h o u t | Perspective


    After getting out of Lebanon, writer June Rugh told Reuters on Tuesday: "As an American, I'm embarrassed and ashamed. My administration is letting it happen [by giving] tacit permission for Israel to destroy a country." The news service quoted another American evacuee, Andrew Muha, who had been in southern Lebanon. He said: "It's a travesty. There's a million homeless in Lebanon and the intense amount of bombing has brought an entire country to its knees."

    Embarrassing. Shameful. A travesty. Those kinds of words begin to describe the alliance between the United States and Israel. Here are a few more: Government criminality. High-tech terror. Mass murder from the skies. The kind of premeditated action that the US representative in Nuremberg at the International Conference on Military Trials - Supreme Court Justice Robert L. Jackson - was talking about on August 12, 1945, when he declared that "no grievances or policies will justify resort to aggressive war. It is utterly renounced and condemned as an instrument of policy."

    THE UNITED STATES AND ISRAEL. RIGHT NOW, IT'S THE MOST DANGEROUS ALLIANCE IN THE WORLD.

    Of course, Israeli officials talk about murderous crimes against civilians by Hezbollah and Hamas. And Hezbollah and Hamas officials talk about murderous crimes against civilians by Israel. Plenty of real crimes to go around. At the same time, by any measure, Israelis have done a lot more killing than dying. (If you doubt that, take a look at the web site of the Israeli human rights group B'Tselem and its documentation of deadly events.)

    In American media, the current mumbling about the need for "restraint" is little better than window-dressing for bomb-dropping. The prevalent dynamic is based on a chain of rarely spoken lies, however conscious or unconscious: none more important than the lie that a religion can make one life worth more than another; render a human death unimportant; elevate certain war-inflicted agonies to spiritual significance.

    "Israel has overwhelming military superiority in both southern Lebanon and Gaza," the New York Times noted in mid-July. A pattern is deeply entrenched in US media and politics: the smaller-scale killers condemned, the larger-scale killers justified with endless rationales.

''THOSE TO WHOM EVIL IS DONE / DO EVIL IN RETURN''

Stripping away the righteous rhetoric, media manipulation and routine journalistic contortions, what remains in joint US-Israeli policy is the unspoken assumption that might makes right. Myths spin around as convenient. Israel ceremoniously "withdraws" from Gaza, only to come back with missiles and troops however and whenever it pleases. The West Bank also continues to be a place of subjugation and resistance. And, as W.H. Auden observed, "Those to whom evil is done / Do evil in return."

    The Israeli leaders who launched this month's state-of-the-killing-art air assault on Gaza and Lebanon had to know that many civilians would be killed, many others wounded, many more terrorized. The smug moral posturing that Israel's military does not target specific civilians is moldy political grist - and, in human terms, irrelevant to the totally predictable carnage.

WE'RE SUPPOSED TO PRETEND THAT ISRAEL DOES NOT ALSO "BLOW UP INNOCENT PEOPLE IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE TACTICAL OBJECTIVES."

    "There are terrorists who will blow up innocent people in order to achieve tactical objectives," President Bush said on July 13. Of course he was referring to actions by Hezbollah and Hamas. We're supposed to pretend that Israel does not also "blow up innocent people in order to achieve tactical objectives."

    Israel calls itself a Jewish state, and its leadership often claims to represent the interests of Jewish people. Killers who terrorize often claim to be acting on blessed behalf of others of the faith. Muslims, Christians, Jews, Hindus ... By now, such demagoguery ought to be transparent.

    In the 40th year of Israel's unconscionable occupation of Palestinian territories, Israeli leaders have their agenda. What's ours?

    IT SHOULD INCLUDE CLEARLY OPPOSING THE MOST DANGEROUS ALLIANCE IN THE WORLD.

    In the United States, evading the "might makes right" core of the alliance is easy. The dodge makes dropping bombs on Lebanon and Gaza that much easier for the Israeli government.

As usual, you can hear it in the weasel-worded statements from even the better politicians on Capitol Hill.

You can read it in New York Times editorials.

Instead of saying that aggressive war by Israel "is utterly renounced and condemned as an instrument of policy," the message is that aggressive war by Israel is accepted and embraced as an instrument of policy.

    MOST OF ALL, YOU CAN HEAR IT IN THE SILENCE.
