The Zionist century project (II)
I wrote the first installment of this ten years ago. Nothing has changed since then, except that Israel’s actions have gone from bad to worse to horrible.
That follows the same progression as it has throughout Israel’s existence since 1948, and also in the years before Israel existed, with quite a few terrorist attacks all over Palestine.
Zionism has an agenda, and there is no doubt what that is. The Zionists don’t want peace or coexistence with the Palestinians. They want them Gone.
Israel's ongoing goal is to remove Palestinians completely from Palestine. Zionists keep revealing that in horrible statements and actions.
It’s a long-term project, stretching into generations, even centuries, but they are getting there, and getting more vicious as they go.
They persecute, torture and kill the Palestinians, men, women and children every single day. Those among us supporting the Palestinians in various ways, through various inefficient methods, looking at it from the outside keep wondering if it ever let up. But it doesn’t really, not even for a moment. A Palestinian family may get a good night’s sleep, but often they don’t. They might enjoy some peace some days, but usually they don’t.
We wonder about many things, if Israel can ever go too far, and make their benefactors withdraw their support. We see that isn’t the case. Israel has killed fifty journalists in twenty years. Most of the killings are regular executions. They’ve killed well over 2000 children in those twenty years. They’ve maimed and tortured and imprisoned and abused far more.
The first major Gaza massacre in 2009 was one escalation of the ongoing trashing of the Palestinians and their culture and identity and very existence. Amnesty international wrote a detailed report about it. The report drew more official condemnation than the horror the israeli army visited upon Gaza.
The major Gaza massacre in 2014 was another distinct escalation. The number of deaths, including children were higher. Even more public buildings were leveled.
Shireen Abu Akleh is one of fifty journalists killed by the israeli army the last twenty years. Like quite a few of them, she was shot execution-style, assassinated in a very deliberate fashion. Many ordinary citizens, including children have been killed and crippled the same way. Israeli sharpshooters have made a point of shooting kneecaps with exploding bullets.
Palestinians can’t even bury their dead without being harassed and viciously attacked.
In short, there is no horror and crime israel does not visit upon the Palestinians, and Israel gets away with every single one.
Palestinians are persecuted in Palestine, and in major countries like United States, Canada, United Kingdom, France and Germany, on this day and night, July 24, 2022, and all days and nights. They are arrested and hassled wherever they speak up and bear witness to their plight. It isn’t just that Israel’s crimes are ignored and supported in western countries, but also that those informing others about them are treated badly as well. It is no exaggeration to claim that Israel is a threat to humanity as a whole.
To keep track of Israel’s daily crimes isn’t hard, isn’t hard at all, and as stated, it’s impossible to not see what the end goal is.
To call the Israeli society apartheid is merely a pale echo of the far worse reality. There is no excuse for defending this.
Every single day in Palestine
A fisherman is shot
A child is grabbed
By brutal hands
And dragged to prison
A woman is shot and a knife
Is placed by her side
Gaza is shelled again today
Fishing boats are attacked
By firing gunboats
A woman giving birth dies
Delayed at a checkpoint
Children are tortured in jail
There are big massacres
Where Gaza is bombed to dust
And blood covers the ground
Where protesters fill the streets
But Palestine is occupied every day
Palestinians are constantly attacked
But protesters stay at home
Palestine is invaded day and night
The invading forces attack on the ground
From the air and from the sea
The Israeli Occupation Army
Swarms Palestine armed to the teeth
Those not accepting that
Must swarm day and night as well
