The people engaged in active genocide against innocent people in Cuba (and elsewhere) are complaining about assault! How convenient, to be well fed and safe while bringing misery to others who cannot fight back!

Susan T's avatar

Complaining about assault is one thing, but complaining about something that never happened is called lying. Complaining about someone wearing a watermelon pin or a keffiyeh is whining. Zionists are very good at whining.

Feral Finster's avatar

Because they can, and law enforcement are quick to take their claims seriously.

Aamir Razak's avatar

well said susan, agreed.

Feral Finster's avatar

Because she can. This is how power works.

It’s a “veteran” and the USA mic terror troops are so much like iof it’s no surprise they whine and play victim too.. I hope they don’t merge like Netanyahu wants..

Feral Finster's avatar

One way for Israel to solve its manpower shortage.

elena the red's avatar

I live to see them erased.

There are predictions that 2027 will be the end of them. Wish it was sooner but it’s still close

Landru's avatar

I pray to the Universe you are right. Looking at the decline and exodus ( ok pun but.........) the end of israel is near.

Feral Finster's avatar

I wish, but that is just wishful thinking.

Patrick Powers's avatar

IDF soldiers could be flown into the USA to supervise elections and manage protests

Aamir Razak's avatar

please no, that would be horrid

Aamir Razak's avatar

i hope they dont merge either elena, that would be yet another huge concession given to those who have committed genocidal carnage and atrocities

Scuba Cat's avatar

Yes, but it is contemptible and cowardly even by those standards.

Feral Finster's avatar

Lina couldn't care less. What matters is not whether it is morally uplifting, but whether it works.

Jennifer Akdemir's avatar

Right wing Latinos are dreadful. Ditto Right wing Iranians and come to think of it Right wing everybody.

MaryJane's avatar

Extremists and sociopaths of any sort are dreadful. But very few of them (or none) have that much power to inflict pain as the western global power elites whose power (and greed) goes completely unchecked.

Jennifer Akdemir's avatar

It seems to me that there are disproportionate numbers of sociopaths among the élites.

Nick Douglas's avatar

In the entire country

Jennifer Akdemir's avatar

I have the same suspicion about us Brits. It seems that neoliberalism brings out the sociopath in people. Who'd have thought it?

Peter Sawchuk's avatar

Can any rational person out there explain to me how Israel or the U.S. can conduct "defensive" strikes on these Arab countries or, for that matter, continue bombing during a "cease fire"? What the Western Press claims is laughable at best.

One-year old. It was a one-year old.

Of course the charges are absurd. That's how pretexts work.

The question is whether whether Lina has the political power to get Medea prosecuted for that pretext. I'm sure she does.

Lina herself could whack Medea upside the head with an aluminum baseball bat, live and on camera, and the prosecutors would promise to look into the matter when they got around to it but ultimately nothing can be proven, see. Meanwhile, Lina walks around, free as a bird. Medea gets a skull fracture, if she's lucky.

That's how power works.

The bodies at Crocus (Ukrainian terrorist attack) hadn't gotten cold yet when MI6 and the CIA knew for a fact that it was ISIS-K 100%, no Ukrainian or western involvement at all nosirree, but Israel bombs embassies and openly targets aid workers and we can't even say who did it, maybe the bombs just fell out of the sky at random. Happens, you know.

That's how power works. Ukraine and Israel are American pets who can do no wrong. Russia and Gaza are designated vermin who can do no right.

Fair? Nope.

Patrick Powers's avatar

That's how it's done in a police state. Even the Nazis pretended the rules of justice were being followed.

Nick Douglas's avatar

That is how it works until it doesn't.

Christopher Kruger's avatar

She musta talked to Debbie Wasserman-Shultz, she tried the identical stunt on Medea 6 or so years ago, look it up. "Assaulting a Member of Congress" is, if course, a federal offense.

Carolyn L Zaremba's avatar

It shouldn't be a federal offense. Corrupt politicians should not be permitted to hide from the law.

Brianna Amore's avatar

I honestly thought it was going to be Nancy Mace when I read the headline. Remember when a trans activist touched her and she showed up the next day with her arm in a sling?

Pepperidge Farms remembers.

More important than ever that the search for justice continues! The work that the Hind Rajab Foundation is doing to track down and bring Israeli criminals to justice is one that is vital in the effort to hold Israel accountable.  Let us hope they will also turn their sights on the criminal leaders of the countries of the west who are co-perpetrators of these crimes.

Find out what they’re doing here:

The least we can do is donate to help them:

Thank you more important that ever to support. The Col. who gave the order is still in critical condition. I normally don't celebrate injuries and death but, evil so Celebration Time Come On : )

Stephen Walker's avatar

In the not-too-distant future, the Nazi-Zionist States of Israel-America will collapse into a smoldering heap, thanks to the steadfast efforts of the Axis of Resistance. And then the bootlicking political and media elites in Australia will suddenly find that they will be held accountable. For complicity in genocide. I hope scum like Albanese, Wong and Minns will rot in prison for a very long time.

jamenta's avatar

Accountability of Western political leaders? Now that's a new one.

Stephen Walker's avatar

Once their imperial patron has disintegrated, yes, there will be a lot of new experiences.

Nick Douglas's avatar

Experiences, such as, pitchforks, guillotines, firing squads, ...

Add to Australia also Europe except for Spain.

Aamir Razak's avatar

and possibly norway and ireland as well

In a just world both the US and Israel would be labeled Terrorist states, boycotted, sanctioned and defunded, maybe even regime changed. That's not Reality. Reality is Americans keep voting expecting different results, they are preparing to celebrate the lie and facade of a Tradition of propaganda they have embraced of a free democratic country. Reality is a surveillance police state that pirates and occupies other countries, constantly murders and terrorizes people at home and abroad. Reality is a fascist crony capitalist, kleptocratic oligarchy controlled by a tiny foreign apartheid, racist genocidal ideology hiding behind a superstition of religious bigotry and victimhood. Neither should exist yet they are presently thought to be the most dangerous countries on this planet. They ONLY way change will come is when WE,THE PEOPLE, make the changes happen by force of WILL, force of REASON, OR regrettably but likely the traditional historic force of ARMS ! The real purpose of the 2nd amendment.. pitch forks, gallows and guillotines.

Peter Sawchuk's avatar

Isn't that a definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over and over expecting different results?

Just Sayn's avatar

Indeed anyone in America still stuck in the UNIparty syndrome of Democrat vs Republic is definitely insane. I don't know how any thinking person could continue to legitimize such a blatantly fraudulent scam.

Patrick Powers's avatar

You underestimate the ignorance of the majority of voters, vigorously fostered, abetted, and nurtured by corporate media.

Just Sayn's avatar

No, I know how ignorant and foolish American voters are. Mere words don't describe the ridiculous act of voting.

"On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron". H.L.Mencken . We achieved and continue to do this.

Peter Sawchuk's avatar

That's the beauty of a well planned scam. Most people's egos refuse to allow them to see they've been fooled. Hence the scam continues until the marks are completely fleeced.

David Baird's avatar

Succinctly summed up, JS.

"Asked by the press to define the word “ceasefire” on Wednesday, President Trump came up with an answer you just know was fed to him by his handlers.

“It’s a different part of the world, you know; I’d say in that part a ceasefire is when you’re shooting in a more moderate manner,” the president said."

A textbook example of Newspeak as Orwell predicted in 1984.

Brianna Amore's avatar

Shooting in a more moderate manner? Who even comes up with this shit?

"Cease" means to STOP in every fucking dictionary on the planet. It doesn't mean slow down or continue in a more moderate manner. And every soldier in the world knows to stop shooting when their commanders yell "CEASE FIRE!"

cease/sēs/

Cease is a verb that means to stop, discontinue, or bring an action or state to an end. It is generally more formal than the word "stop" and often implies a gradual end or a permanent conclusion.

wrknight's avatar

Not any more. In Newspeak, cease means "do whatever".

Davina's avatar

By that definition, which I believe is the correct one - cease israel should be the next order worldwide

Aamir Razak's avatar

War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength. Mr. Orwell words in '1984' prove more and more eerily prescient with each passing day

SW's avatar

This would qualify as a comedy routine if the power of such morons weren’t so deadly to other people. Luna will do absolutely nothing for her constituents and fit right in with her do-nothing peers that include Bernie Sanders (“if Palestinians get full rights Israel will cease to exist and I support Israel’s right to exist”), AOC (“Israel has to have defensive weapons”), Ted Cruz (“my priority is to defend Israel), and the not-to-be-outdone Lindsay Graham (too many to list just one inane comment).

Feral Finster's avatar

Lina gets it just fine. She knows that she has power and a pretext.

ennui_mcgee's avatar

She may or may not get it, but there certainly is a thing of powerful people believing their own bullshit. You can't tell me there's not a good bit of that happening in Israel with institutionalized societal brainwashing schools.

Feral Finster's avatar

Of course they believe it. What is stopping them from doing so?

ennui_mcgee's avatar

I mean some of them are genuine Machiavellian sociopaths and/or intelligent psychopaths. They peddle propaganda but don't get high off their own supply. On the other hand, little parlaliament members, senators, or administration officials whose careers depend on the propaganda are constantly huffing it. Not only this but entire political classes are also subject to groupthink stupidity.

Do you think representative democracy is viable as a form of governance that reflects the will of citizens?

Feral Finster's avatar

To answer your question : no.

There is no viable form of governance, no magic bullet, only temporary expedients.

Just Sayn's avatar

Government should be Tiny, and powerless, even a hint of impropriety should result in immediate removal, 100 % transparent and accountable upto and including prison. No laws that allow behaviors that the general population is punished for. Therefore there is no way to have a government because they depend on criminality for their existence.

Peace be upon you by Gaza and Jerusalem - Honour and victory are the allies of the axis of resistance and its allies, and humiliation and shame are for the axis of evil, Epstein Class (USA, Britain, France, Turkey, Qatar, UAE, NATO Governments, New Nazi, Masonic, Zionist and Israel) and its allies.

We have one in Sweden like in Australia, Alice Teodorescu Måve who is the EU parliament. She is the worst person and everything Israel does it’s sustained in her world. She very seldom talk’s about Sweden.

Feral Finster's avatar

Why should she? She is doubtless gunning for Bigger And Better Things in America, and is constantly looking over her shoulder, hoping that important Americans see her and take notice.

“”Asked by the press to define the word “ceasefire” on Wednesday, President Trump came up with an answer you just know was fed to him by his handlers.””

…and the equally awful part is that the handlers probably also fed the question itself to the press for the specific purpose of highlighting the “fed-answer” to Trump.

ennui_mcgee's avatar

The American corporate media outlets are compromised. Nothing they say vis-a-vis Israel, Russia, or China can be trusted. Or practically anything to do with American foreign policy. And so much more. They peddle agenda and when this house of cards finally falls, I hope the media gets a hard comeuppance.

Patrick Powers's avatar

I trust them to report sports scores honestly.

Indu Abeysekara's avatar

musicbob,

You and most of us by now know how the western media works. It is just part of the establishment. And has been from its inception.The Q&As are for show, to keep a facade of "democracy" going. The fakery has now reached its highest point, with their despicable covering up of a genocide and wars and more wars. The lies and deception have reached a crescendo. They no longer have to manufacture consent or create necessary illusions.They are now manufacturing ignorance.

Davina's avatar

Well we know Drumpf ain't smart as would anyone to believe such tripe.

Brianna Amore's avatar

Anti-Zionism is NOT anti-Semitism. No way, no how. It is NOT anti-Semitic to oppose Israel's genocidal ambitions, it's warlike and violent ways, and it's tendency to invade its neighbors and occupy their territory while killing and driving out innocent civilians in the name of "fighting terrorism". It is NOT anti-Semitic to point out how utterly fucking insane it is to level entire apartment buildings just to take out one Hezbollah commander.

That is not what anti-Semitism is. And to say such things is to reveal yourself as a monster who supports other monsters. What Israel is doing right now, and has been doing for literally DECADES, is monstrous. This is not self defense. This is straight-up MURDER. Claiming that every civilian is a potential terrorist while leveling entire cities and destroying people's ways of life is MONSTROUS. Utterly destroying a small strip of land because a bunch of terrorists killed 3000 of your own while you murder over 60,000 civilians in response is MONSTROUS.

And anybody who claims that criticism of these MONSTROUS actions can get fucked. That's like saying your once innocent child who grew up to be a mass murderer is still an innocent child. Anybody with half a brain would call that insanity.

Indu Abeysekara's avatar

Brianna Amore, I agree with you that Israeli actions are "monstrous". But Israel is not levelling "entire apartment buildings just to take out one Hezbollah commander". It is to steal more and more land and chase out the original inhabitants, in their quest for a "greater Israel". This is what the aim of the settler colonial apartheid state of Israel is on about. A scorched earth policy.

Hezbollah is a freedom movement as is Hamas. To say that Hamas are "a bunch of terrorists who killed 3000" Israelis is just buying into their genocidal narrative.

Davina's avatar

It was Netanyahu who killed those 3,000. I cannot believe any still quotes that lie.

Brianna Amore's avatar

My mistake. Yes, he let it happen despite being warned multiple times.

One would wish it was all "theater" because then we could close the curtains and turn out the spotlights and go home safe and sound. Unfortunately, we live in reality--a reality full of psychopaths/sociopaths and narcissists extraordinaire.

I do not disagree but it gets so farcical I sometimes step back and view it. It is truly deadly business.
