Those who bother to research , discern, end up fighting the lazies, rather than galvanizing action.

Thank you Caitlin & Tim. Loved the article. ❤️🙏 This is an opportunity for people to see the actions of Israel and the U.S. in YET another light - as a 'disastrous, unhinged, berserk, genocidal cult'.

Zionism is a VIRUS, and Israel has become a CANCER to humans all over and the rest of earth's species. Humanity MUST eradicate this virus/cancer, or else I really don't know what the alternatives are...

Where is that “well regulated militia” that is mentioned in the Second Amendment of the Constitution?

The “militia” has morphed into a subservient powerful array of legislators who order servants to pay their ransoms to the Empire, or else. … Hasta La Vista!

That cult has its American attack dog at its side, which is why it gets away with this.

Actually, the US has been executing its colonialist strategy since 1945. In each of these more than 80 countries, the result has included the death of civilians, ranging from a few thousand to several million. The pace and extent of these has been accelerating.

Yes 👍 And the Chief Protagonist is - The American CIA! THEY have caused more death and destruction in over 70 countries since the end of WW11. And all under both sides of the government of America. And many, many of these have been on the orders of Israel and its Lobbyists in America and other Western Nations. Because the Jews OWN America.

Yep. I keep wondering when the film's heroes arrive and take down the bad guys -- unfortunately in the movies the heroes are usually the Americans who manage to get there just before all is lost.

But see what happens when the bad guys are the Americans in league, not only with the bad guys but actually pushing to equally be the bad guys and, the American's president is the top bad guy who is having fun cutting down all the good guys in America so he can have a (fake)golden statue of a much slimmer him in the land stolen by the cult.

The heroes aren't finding much support, unfortunately.

I was just thinking the other day that if someone told me five years ago that this would happen I wouldn't have believed them. Yet here we are.

One thing about the protagonists: they won't be coming from the class that's profiting from all this devastation, like the arms industry and those who profit from it.

Five years ago many were warning about this , with white papers and the perp’s own documents. They were told to fuck off

That’s how we got here.

What is scary, I could not decide if you were talking about Israel or the USA. The US has been destroying Venezuelan boats without restriction, the immigration chief was given a pass after being caught on camera accepting a bag of money from undercover agents. They are shutting down free speech, declaring any crimes or not as they like.

At this point, I don't see the difference.

Israel is a death cult that practices in human child sacrifice who believes that we are in the end times and that their "evil God" will help them conquer the world if they commit enough soon.. That's the most direct explanation of what we've been witnessing for the last two years.

>>"That's the most direct explanation..."

Not really. Here's an even simpler/direct explanation - SETTLER COLONIALISM - this is how it unfolds - in ethnic cleansing and Genocide. Ask the Americans - they've been there, done that.

Ignoring the religious aspect, ignoring the direct targeting and slaughter of specifically children while proclaiming that they are on a mission from God, ignoring that is ignoring most of the context in your analysis. The decisions of the Netanyahu administration are not actually promoting the continuation and longevity of the settler project anymore. They would've stopped a long time ago if this was just about gaining more land. They kill these children as a way of life. As a testimony to their faith.

The religious aspect is 'the narrative' that has been used needed to accomplish the task of settler-colonialism.

Thoughout history, religious narratives have been used to commit ethnic cleansing and Genocide. Remember the crusades and the inquisition? It's the same in other religions too.

Religions have been used and abused by TPTB, power elite, etc. to control narratives and get others to do their bidding.

If you're trying to argue that a small number of people in a shadowy room are killing these kids because of colonialism cool, I don't care. There is a 12 million man death cult that doesn't believe in God, but thinks he'll give them greater Israel if they murder and rape children in full view of the world. I'm talking about the death cult called Israel. You're talking about politics. I'm talking about real people and what they really believe. I'm talking about what the average citizen in Israel is yelling at the camera at these protests while they chant death to Arabs and rape the Arabs. You can't ignore the context of the 12 million people who believe God has sent them on a mission to murder children

I'm not trying to argue anything. I'm suggesting for you to read up on settler-colonialism (in history) and learn how it works and the various ways (i.e. narratives) that have been used to justify it.

Religions is just ONE of several narratives that have been used in history for the purposes of settler-colonialism (which results in ethnic cleansing and genocide).

You (and a lot of others) are being distracted by ONE religion (which itself has many contradicting beliefs and narratives and interpretations) instead of FOCUSING on WHY Israel is interested in Eretz Israel (which includes the Sinai Peninsula of Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and even parts of Saudi Arabia and Iraq).

Also ask yourself the following question -> what do the ELITES in the U.S. gain by supporting Israel? I'm not talking about the people of America that make up 99.99% of the country, I'm talking specifically of the motivations of the uber-capitalists for whom nations don't matter. Why do nations not matter for these uber-capitalists? Because 'capital' is NOT restricted by borders and nations - it is global. Israel has a lot to offer these uber-Capitalist ELITES (not just in the U.S. but throughout the West, and more).

I know all of that and it's irrelevant. It's irrelevant to the vast majority of the 12 million people perpetuating the crimes. That's why I say it's best described as a death cult. We'll agree to disagree. You keep your nose in your theory books and your eyes on your Twitter threads. I'm going to keep engaging with the reality of the situation. The reality is that the people who are interested in perpetuating the settler colonial project of Israel are now stuck on a run away train and that run away train is the death cult that they don't know how to stop. We've long past the point where it was productive to continue the killing for the sake of the settler colonial project. In every other round of killing over the past 76+ years Israel would kill people, drive them off land, and grow the settler project in a maintainable fashion that left little interest in the global community to stop them. They are now on a runaway killing train that they don't control the breaks to. The developed their nation into a death cult and they don't know how to stop it. Where do you really think this is all heading? Isn't it clear to everyone that Israel will collapse? How does collapse benefit the settler colonial project? It doesn't. The people who view Israel from that lens are no longer holding the reigns. The death cult is in charge

Or do they just want all their land and more? Don't they say most Zionists aren't even particularly religious?

yep, it's totally over the top. analyses and discussion are complete. mechanisms and politicians should be put to work to resolve the matter, if necessary by coercion. i recently saw a tiktok pointing out stock-exchange graphs of israeli stocks: corporations were making enormous profits as a result of the genocide. this must be halted.

I was at a silent vigil where all the women were dressed in black and holding signs that said Free Gaza, Armsembargo now, and other similar things. There were a bunch of cult members who also had signs saying that they had zero tolerance for marriages between cult members and anyone else. Instead of the usual cult flags, they had flags of a province that they inhabited and they pretended to be part of another, less invasive cult. It was a disturbing couple of hours.

Imagine living in an Orwellian world where our most powerful antiracism bureaucrat only cared about protecting white jews, and was a lifelong activist for a foreign nation that existed to conduct Ashkenazi-supremacist-genocide of native semitic (=Arabic+Hebrew) Palestinians. I'd be glad to wake up from that nightmare! Oh wait...
