Biden Never Pushed For A Ceasefire In Gaza
Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix
Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley):
Former Israeli ambassador to the United States Mike Herzog acknowledged on Israeli media on Sunday that the Biden administration never at any time pressured Israel for a ceasefire in Gaza.
“God did the State of Israel a favor that Biden was the president during this period, because it could have been much worse,” Herzog said. “We fought [in Gaza] for over a year and the administration never came to us and said, ‘ceasefire now.’ It never did.”
So everyone who said the Biden administration was working for a ceasefire lied. They lied that whole entire time. They committed genocide and lied about it, and then they said you were crazy and irresponsible if you didn’t support them.
People’s rage should shake heaven and earth.

The US has committed another huge massacre of civilians in Yemen, this time bombing a detention center full of African migrants in Saada. Some 68 people have reportedly been killed, making this Trump’s worst massacre in Yemen since his terrorist attack on a Hodeida fuel port killed 80 people earlier this month.
Trump’s massacres of civilians in Saada and Hodeida are much more evil than anything he has done in the United States domestically, but they’ve received almost no attention from the media or from Democrats because in the eyes of the empire Yemenis don’t count as human beings and killing them is normal.
❖
The word “antisemite” has become so meaningless that whenever someone uses it you have to ask them “What kind? The Hitler-was-right kind or the stop-bombing-hospitals kind?”
❖
It’s absolutely bat shit insane that it’s increasingly illegal to voice any praise for groups like Hamas and Hezbollah in the UK and Australia just because the government deems them “terrorists”. What happens when the government is wrong and one of those groups is right?
❖
❖
They’re seriously going to ethnically cleanse Gaza after a monstrous extermination campaign and then look us all dead in the eyes and tell us we need to hate China.
❖
It’s wild how the US and Israel just came right out and said “Yeah we’re working on permanently ethnically cleansing all Palestinians from the Gaza Strip,” and then the entire western political/media class went right back to pretending to believe this is about fighting Hamas.
❖
Calling the Gaza genocide a “war” is like seeing a man beating a toddler to death and calling it a “fight”.
So much evil hides behind calling this thing a war. If you accept that it’s a war then you have to take seriously arguments like “It’s a war, civilians die in war,” or “Hamas shouldn’t have started a war they can’t win.” If it’s a war then it has two sides who share comparable levels of responsibility for any bad things that happen during that time. If it’s a war then it’s taken as a given that Israel’s primary target is Hamas, and not the civilian population of Gaza in its entirety.
But it’s not a war, it’s a naked ethnic cleansing operation being carried out by a highly sophisticated military with the backing of the most powerful empire that has ever existed. It’s a globe-spanning power structure openly purging a Palestinian territory of Palestinian life using a full siege and the systematic destruction of all healthcare and civilian infrastructure, being resisted by a few thousand guys with homemade rockets and dwindling supplies. That’s not a “war”. It’s not even a “conflict”. It’s a slaughter. It’s a holocaust.
If the Gaza holocaust is a “war”, then shooting fish in a barrel is “hunting”. Beating up a quadriplegic is a “street brawl”. A SWAT team shooting an unarmed civilian is a “gun fight”. No conflicts are perfectly equal, but past a certain level of one-sidedness the language of conflict becomes absurd. The daily massacres we are seeing in Gaza are far beyond that point.
They are raining military explosives on top of a giant concentration camp packed full of children while deliberately starving the entire civilian population to death. They have complete control over the enclave, and they are using that control to eradicate the presence of Palestinians in Gaza. That is not war. That is genocide.

The Dems are just the other fang of the ruling snake.
But they smile & feign decency rather than the upfront, undiluted kkkuntiness of the Republicans.
Different roles same outcome.
Uncle Scam & the child mass-murderer it arms in West Asia are charring humanity's soul. All involved in enabling, facilitating, & covering for are complicit in this century's most heinous crime against humanity.
If only they had the spirit, compassion. & courage of those they're trying to eradicate in Palestine.
FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸
The term “ethnic cleansing” doesn’t exist in international humanitarian law. It only entered the lexicon during the breakup of Yugoslavia in the 1990s, instigated and facilitated by NATO. What you’re referring to is one or a combination of: (a) mass forced displacement of a civilian population; (b) mass deliberate extermination of a civilian population; or (c) genocide. This is clearly a genocide, and the population is not going to be forced into leaving en masse. Already probably between 25% and 33% of the population has been exterminated through killings and deprivation. This is all documented. And yet the entire world excluding Yemen does nothing. Human society is basically fucked. There is no coming back from letting a live-streamed genocide take place for 18 months unimpeded.
