 The proof that american political leaders have completely lost all sense of morality and justice is their overwhelming vote to support the jews’ war crimes against innocent palestinian civilians in gaza. What this vote also shows is that america is run by a jewish ruling elite which has a death grip over american politicians. The american congress is no longer a democratic institution designed to represent and protect the interests of americans living in american states but has become a jewish colonial outpost more concerned with promoting the interests of the jews’ illegal colonization of palestine. The american knesset’s role is firstly, to syphon american financial and military resources to the jewish state so that it can continue military operations to boost the jewish colonization of palestine. And secondly, to act as cheerleaders for jewish racists committing war crimes against palestinians in order to continue stealing palestinian property. The american knesset is just a branch of the jewish knesset just as america’s two mainstream political parties are merely competing branches of the likud party headquartered in occupied palestine.

House Overwhelmingly Passes Bill Cheering Israeli War on Gaza: Bill Blames Hamas for All Civilian Casualties, Presses Egypt to Tighten Border January 9, 2009

Earlier this afternoon, the United States House of Representatives voted 390-5 in favor of H. RES. 34, voicing their support for the Israeli military effort in the Gaza Strip.

The bill, co-sponsored by 11 representatives, demanded that Hamas end its rocket fire against Israel and renounce violence, while expressing "vigorous support and unwavering commitment" to Israel and declaring that its two weeks of attacks on the Gaza Strip were rightful acts of self-defense.

The bill also demanded that all nations condemn Hamas for breaking the "calm" (quotes were in the original draft text) and that the nations also recognize that the thousands of civilian casualties caused by the Israeli attacks were entirely the fault of Hamas. The bill also called on Egypt to tighten its borders to prevent "smuggling" into the Gaza Strip and promised US support to that end.

Four Democrats, Representatives Dennis Kucinich (OH), Maxine Waters (CA), Gwen Moore (WI), and Nick Rahall (WV) and one Republican, Ron Paul (TX) voted against the resolution. 22 other members voted "present" and 16 others did not vote.

The vote echoed a similar vote in the Senate yesterday, which "allows for the long-term improvement of daily living conditions of the ordinary people of Gaza" while likewise proclaiming attacks against them self-defense."

Well Said!

“Remember the solidarity shown to Palestine here and everywhere... and remember also that there is a cause to which many people have committed themselves, difficulties and terrible obstacles notwithstanding. Why? Because it is a just cause, a noble ideal, a moral quest for equality and human rights.”

- Edward Said

 

This brief review of Israel’s record over the past four decades makes it difficult to resist the conclusion that it has become a rogue state with "an utterly unscrupulous set of leaders". A rogue state habitually violates international law, possesses weapons of mass destruction and practises terrorism - the use of violence against civilians for political purposes. Israel fulfils all of these three criteria; the cap fits and it must wear it. Israel’s real aim is not peaceful coexistence with its Palestinian neighbours but military domination. It keeps compounding the mistakes of the past with new and more disastrous ones. Politicians, like everyone else, are of course free to repeat the lies and mistakes of the past. But it is not mandatory to do so.

-Avi Shlaim

We are these human rights observers, aid workers, and journalists. We have years of experience volunteering in Gaza and the West Bank at the invitation of Palestinians.

Despite the great need for our work, the Israeli Government will not allow us in to do it.
