Thank you Caitlin. It’s really important independent voices like yours keep going. The mainstream narrative is nothing short of nazism. Big money and big levers are being used to batter that narrative into justifying genocide. Whatever world they are trying to force into place, it cannot be one where genocide is acceptable.

Yes, absolutely!! I'm Israeli and I fully concur!!

I think it's important to understand that the profound ruthless cruelty and inhumanity of the zionist ruling class against the local people in Palestine is NOT an accident, but is very deliberate and calculated to elicit as much trauma, anger, hostility and hatred as possible. The Zionist ultra-wealthy ruling class are doing it for the exact same reason for which they created Hamas, fund it and keep it in power (some of the evidence available in English can be seen here https://www.pdrboston.org/israel-funds-hamas-keeps-it-in-power). Besides the above, a dead giveaway that Hamas is a zionist-created proxy is the fact that Hamas joined Israel, USA and their other western-created proxy (Al-Qaeda ISIS) in the zionist/american regime change operation in Syria. Yes, you read that right - just like the ISIS proxy which was funded and armed by the west, Hamas was also fighting together with/alongside Israel & USA to fulfill their imperialist objective in Syria!!!

Why do the zionist ruling class do that (Both created Hamas AND ensure that the zionist forces inflict as much trauma as possible on the local people in Palestine)?

Very briefly, the reason is this - like the United States, the Israeli government is run by a very wealthy zionist upper class that economically severely oppresses and exploits Israeli ordinary people (Israel has the the third largest gap between rich and poor and the highest poverty rate in the developed world). The right-wing zionist billionaire class uses tribal divide-and-rule to brainwash ordinary Israelis by pretending to be our righteous and patriotic "protector" against our boogeyman enemy-- those "evil scary monstrous" Palestinians.

To make the Palestinians be an effective boogeyman enemy, the right-wing zionist billionaire class needs Hamas (which it created and funds and keeps in power) to be as frightening to Jews as possible, it needs the boogeyman zionist-funded Hamas to espouse right-wing religious supremacist and exclucivist views that are threatening to non-muslims (and which are, by the way, a mirror image of the exclucivist supremacist views espoused by right-wing Jewish religious fundamentalists), and it needs Hamas to deliberately direct lethal violence (suicide bombers in the past and rockets more recently) against non-combatant Israeli civilians (i.e. to commit terrorism) in order to make it seem (to propagandized, uninformed and gullible Israelis and others) as if ordinary Palestinians want to kill all the Jews in Israel and drive them into the sea..

Hamas plays the role of Palestinian antisemitic terrorist perfectly; it is exactly what the right-wing zionist billionaire ruling class needs in order to stay in power.

The long-time support of the ultra-wealthy right-wing zionist ruling class for Hamas is not a secret. When the subject comes up, right-wing zionists “explain away” this support by saying it was simply a clever way of weakening the PLO (the secular 'Palestine Liberation Organization') . However, what such right-wing Israeli leaders never mention is this - The REASON that the Zionist billionaire ruling class wanted to weaken the PLO and strengthen Hamas was because the PLO (before caving in to american/zionist pressure and bribes to advocate for a “two-state solution”, a "solution" that would make the ethnic cleansing from most of Palestine permanent) the PLO advocated for something that actually appealed to many ordinary Israeli working-class people: that the entire land between the Jordan river and the sea be a secular democracy, a state of ALL its citizens (not a supremacist state where the immigrants/colonizers who were given at birth the label 'Jew' are superior to the local palestinian people of the land but) a secular democratic state in which Jews and non-Jews would have equal rights under the law and live without war in respect, security and peace with each other (one of PLO's most memorable tenents was: Jews - yes!! Zionist racism & supremacy - no!! ).

Right-wing Zionist billionaire ruling class intensely FEAR the possibility of Israeli have-nots (ordinary Israeli citizens) viewing Palestinians as human beings, as non- threatening human beings who want to live in safety & security just like them and to not be oppressed by the thieving heartless right-wing billionaire ruling class, just like them.

THIS is exactly the reason why the right-wing zionist billionaire ruling class began funding Hamas—to ensure that ordinary Israelis would (wrongly) perceive ordinary Palestinians as wanting to kill all the Jews and therefore as their enemy, To ensure that ordinary Israelis & Palestinians would fear each other and so will never unite to create a thriving humane fertile state where we can live together in mutual respect, dignity, security, peace and prosperity (by throwing off our warmongering cynical infantile right-wing billionaire ruling class that intentionally divides us and pits us tribalistically against each other, and screws us all by transferring our wealth and fruits of our labour upwards to enrich the 0.1% and keep us all - Israelis & Palestinians - struggling just to keep the head above the water).

The right-wing billionaire ruling class (in israel, in the muslim world and all across the globe) thrives on a world of tribalistic fear of the other, tribalistic division, hatred, violence, conflict, violence and trauma. The more they can generate such a traumatic, violent and hate-filled reality, the more they can keep ordinary people divided and fearful of each other, and clinging onto them (the right-wing billionaire ruling class in each country) as our so-called "protectors" from "those evil people" over there, that scary other tribe over there who supposedly "just wants to kill us all" (and the scary and monstrous boogeyman created by the right-wing billionaire class gives ordiinary citizens all the "proof" needed to claim that 'the other side' are non-human monsters).

That is why the zionist billionaire right-wing ruling class do everything in their power to inflict as much cruelty and inhumanity and traumatize the local people of Palestine as much as possible, because they know that the more they can cruelly traumatize the Palestinians, the higher the likelihood that the palestinians will feel deep anger and resentment and hatred towards the abusive terrorist zionist state and its citizens, which in turn would make reconcilliation impossible (reconcilliation and peace between ordinary people is the arch-enemy and the greatest fear of the right-wing billionaire ruling class) AND would make Palestinians appear very threatening and scary to ordinary Israelis (which, again, ensures that no cooperation would be possible, but rather that hateful trauma-driven tribalism will always reign, that ordinary people will keep being bamboozeled into believing that our enemies are the ordinary people of 'the other side' and thus keep voting for the representitives of the right-wing billionaire class to be our rulers (because the right wing ruling class deceivers pretend to be patriotic and "the protectors of the nation" against those 'scary evil monsters over there'; even though IN REALITY the right-wing ultra-wealthy class do THE EXACT OPPOSITE of providing security, but they are in fact the ones ensuring that the nation is in a constant state of hateful conflict and antagonism (or downright war) against others AND that the nation's wealth keeps flowing upwards from the people to the ultra-rich 0.1%

It's the same right-wing billionaire fascist playbook all over the planet that they've been playing for centuries (create a scary boogeyman for the people to fear and hate and direct our anger towards, and then pretend to be patriotic and 'protectors of the nation' against this boogyman threat that they themselves created and fund) while in reality working to move all the wealth to the ultra-wealthy and screw everyone.

The right-wing billionaire fascists all over the planet (supremacist zionists and skilled-deceiver trump are but the most obvious examples) play this infantile trick over and over and over again, yet we the ordinary people never learn and still keep falling for it again and again and again and keep voting them to power thinking that these right-wing billionaires care about us and will protect us from the 'scary monstrous enemies of the nation'. It's the oldest trick in tne book and yet it still works for the life-destroying Godless right-wing deceivers, mostly because of how tribalistically indoctrinated, uneducated and propagandized we are..

That is precisely the reason why the right-wing zionist ruling class fund Hamas AND continously inflict the above mentioned horrors on the local people of palestine. The right-wing supremacists thrive on a world of trauma and tribalistic division and antagonism. This is what makes people keep voting for them, this is what keeps them in power. Their atrocities are not a mistake, it is a built in feature of the right-wing strategy to create a hellish divided traumatised world of tribalistic fear, violence & hate, which keeps them in power so that they may continue making that sweet money flow from the people to the ultra-wealthy, in their sick 'trickle down economics' ideology

PS. this excelleby article explains quite well how Hamas and the Zionist ruling class operate according to the same right-wing supremacist ideology and why need each other; how each of them (Hamas and Zionist ruling leadershipl takes action that strenghthen the other, and helps the other keep a grip on its own people, providing the other a perfect enemy with which to frighten its "own people" into obedience and support for them. https://www.pdrboston.org/israeli-leaders-hamas-need-each-oth

Very well said. We need to hear from more anti-Zionist Israeli (and non-Israeli) Jews, because that dissident perspective is conspicuously absent from most western journalism. Zionism, via the Zionist state of Israel, has stolen the identity of all Jews (and also evangelical/dispensationalist Christians). All Jews are not Zionists. All Israeli Jews are not Zionists. The greatest threat in the world to Jews and Judaism is not Islamic extremism, it is rabid Zionism. The recent blatant evils of Israeli Zionists will create potentially unfathomable blowback against Jews everywhere.

I would also very highly recommend this brilliant and insightful essay to understand how the world (dictated by the ultra-wealthy anti-egalitatian fascist ruling classes) actually works, and how the ruling class in each society constantly must use a boogeyman enemy in order to keep the have-nots in each society under control and obedient to the "patriotic duty of fighting the monstrous enemy of the nation (or at least hating & blaming, or morbidly fearing them)" https://www.pdrboston.org/oppressors-need-bogeyman-enemies

And by the way, the boogeyman enemy does not even have to be a physical/factual other nation/tribe/religion/party/ethnicity (though that's what it often is), it can even be fear of hell or "divine" damnation, that can also be used as a boogeyman by the ruling class to keep the have-nots in line..

That’s very good input. After learning so much about Palestine, it’s difficult to even accept “ Israeli” as a nationality and Israel as a country when it is all Palestine. I would not be proud to be Israeli.

To add to the complexity of the situation online, I’m seeing far-right views in comments of bonafide humanitarian objections to Zionist Israel. These voices close the loop between antisemitism and anti Zionism. Some are genuine antisemites, some are Zionist trolls. It’s hard to tell them apart. Both abhor the slightest application of logic or reference to facts. Maybe it doesn’t matter who they are, the end result is extremist dead end thinking. The same that pulls the trigger on an ambulance driver etc etc.

"Israel's Savagery Is So Shocking It's Sometimes Hard To Take In" - shouldn't be hard if you consider Israel is a full blown Nazi state.

Judging by Ilan Pappe's "The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine" all the various Jewish paramilitary groups acted just like SA - brownshirts - in Germany, or Azov etc in Ukraine. While doing Nakba especially, that is. All the Jewish communications and diary entries by Ben-Gurion read just like Hitler discussing and planning his European conquests.

Given that, what is there to be surprised at? And that applies to Ukraine 100% as Israel was nurturing it in all things evil.

Surprising how her "friends" came to her defense and excused her behavior. I didn't.

I forgot, but we're going down a busy street, and Miss babysitter was a passenger in my car, and an old woman, about 90, is crossing the street with two bags of groceries, so I stop blocking off traffic to give her time to cross and Miss charm tells me Hitler didn't do a good enough job, since she thought the woman looked Jewish.

The victimization only breeds more animosity towards Israel and trickles down to Jewish people. It definitely breeds real antisemitism too, which I guess is part of their plan. They want to be able to tell Jews “see how they hate you, you need Zionism”

Certain animals behave in a way that is hard to take. Some things in nature take place that are hard to take. But such is their nature.

The nature of a Nazi state is to comply with the definition. It's not be surprised at for that reason. It doesn't mean that it should be accepted as a norm, though. It's natural - since it takes place, it exists, - but it's also abnormal.

It is so shocking because we have elected Israel as one of the good guys -not like Russia say or China which our media have long told us are highly suspect; not like the European or American democracies (of which Israel is an honorary (and honourable ) member and therefore protected from the low view of Arab and Islamic States where anything might happen and prem baby. killings just one of a long list of horrors they might perpetuate.

While we are on this particular plane of existence where dualities [yin/yang] exist, e.g., good/bad, night/day, you're quite right.

It’s possible you misunderstood.

It’s a ROLES-based order. Not RULES.

The order is like this. US is massa and they are the exception, because massa’s role is to just make up sadistic and twisted rules.

Europe is among those who plays the role of indentured house servant, hoping to be freed after service to massa. But: they don’t realise massa has no intent of freeing them and their whupping is coming.

The global south plays the role of slaves toiling the fields and being exploited. They are brutally put down if they rebel. Often massa lets Europe prove their loyalty by being the one to lay down the whip. The competition is tough, new indentured servant like Japan are trying to show they are more loyal. North Korea does their best but are a bit queasy and sometimes wonder why their brother ran away from the plantation after a bad beating. The newest servant Israel was horribly beaten too, but was spared by massa’s wife. Israel went psycho from the trauma and now enjoys brutalizing the slaves.

Now you know why Russia escaped from the plantation. And Cuba and North Korea before them. They really didn’t like the roles massa ordered them to play. And they ain’t coming back.

And there is China which lives off the plantation and trades with massa, but is very careful to not let massa run around near his kids. He remembers once when massa pretended to be his friend but got him hooked on drugs and roped him. China definitely doesn’t want any role in this but wonders why massa keeps so many armed men on horseback camped right outside his fence.

I know that Caitlin has avoided talking about this but the madness and destruction of wokeism and identity politics also plays into this.

Oil and animal ag industries then targets the anti woke health freedom movement on social media by lumping scientifically sound veganism, climate change and environmentalism into wokeism and 'the Great Reset', I watched it happen.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PCRS) said on Tuesday evening that the Israeli occupation forces prevented the entry of aid and fuel trucks into the northern Gaza Strip, the official Palestinian Wafa news agency reported, citing PCRS’s statement.

In the statement, PCRS affirmed that it attempted to bring in fuel trucks, and 31 humanitarian aid trucks containing food, water, and relief materials into Gaza City and the north, but the occupation forces stationed at the military checkpoint that separates the north of the Gaza Strip from its south, prevented the fuel trucks from entering.

It stressed that bringing in fuel trucks was aimed at enhancing the work of the Red Crescent ambulances operating in the northern Gaza Strip, warning that it has seven ambulances that will stop working due to the lack of fuel.

Unfortunately the quiet majority (who I would assume are decent people who would be appalled if they had time to see the truth of all the atrocities these psychopaths do) does not rise up (as said times need to be much worse for something to happen). Until that time we who already 'know' have to wait and go with them, after all WE WILL BE MILLIONS and they are the 0.01 percent of stuffed rich people ... So PLEASE don't despair!

I have experienced every last thing you describe. How can this be happening ..and while she was so arrogant and self assured about dying for celebrating, i wish she had addressed the other executions taking place during the agreed cease fire. This child was not the only assassination.

I've lived through the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the depredations on the Native Americans, the War on Drugs (no, actually, it was a war on people), Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria and so many wars that just came and went. The civil war in Lebanon, the Chechen War, Grenada, Panama, the bombing of Cambodia and Laos, Ukraine, Algeria, the Sahel ...

But I NEVER thought I would see real evil like the monsters in Israel. And my own country helping with the murders. Something in America started to die at the turn of this century. And the destruction seems to be accelerating. This is some Nazi shit.

Another great truthful article, only hope is the world (people) are waking up to the absolute atrocities being carried out by Israel, all supposedly in the name of "freedom" which is denied to the people of Gaza.

In the "News"

Israel is accusing Hamas of mistreatment of hostages because they lost 15 lbs in the last month. It was Israel who cut off electric,water food and has been bombing Gaza and hospitals to dust and denying any and all humanitarian aid into Gaza. US media ignores this.

NPR ran a news article which stated that Israel is just "defending" itself from the Oct 7 attack. Still? After 13000 dead and how many maimed for life? Wounded numbers are not reported. Israel is not "defending"itself.

Hamas stated (according to the"news " ) that if Israel didn't give advance warning about attacks they would kill hostages. So far the only hostages killed have been due to Israeli bombs. Hamas is now releasing hostages. Hamas is the only one keeping their word. Who and what do you believe?

The IDF and Zionists are worse than the German Nazis of WW2. Hamas can NEVER be completely eliminated. Israel is provoking a war in the Mideast against all Islamic Muslim people which the US will gladly join in as we slowly amass military power in the Mideast. As a nation we in the US are left guessing about the future while those in power have plans we are not privy to. Looking back over the past weeks should give any intelligent person a good indication of what the future holds and it is not a cheery one.

Americans are not sitting on their asses on this. They are being oppressed, repressed and jailed for protesting against US sanctioned genocide. The empire is in full control and the US citizens have lost any and all control over the government and their futures.

Thanks for the information. I thought (or think,) that it would be higher than the reported death toll since that's the way it usually works in a combat zone. How can one have any faith or trust in the US government with this happening with our governments support?

I thought at first that Hamas was truly insane for the attack on the 7th given the overwhelming superiority of Israeli forces. Then I heard a report supposedly from them about "changing the status quo" and the sacrifices being the only way to achieve it. Given the current propagandized media it's impossible to know if that statement was truly from Hamas or even if the attack was conducted by Hamas. I commented weeks ago that Israelis claim of the hundreds of miles of tunnels under Gaza was a bogus claim. Given the amount of construction equipment and disposal of the materials it would be impossible to do. Especially when the Israeli government was monitoring Gaza so intensively. It would have taken years to complete. It is virtually impossible for Israel to have not known. Along with the US intelligence agencies. The"rabbit hole" the US people are being led down is the Alice in wonderland one manufactured by Israel and the US with lies. We are all being asked to take a toke off the hookah the caterpillar is smoking.

Hamas may be right in that a sacrifice such as this is a last effort to secure a peaceful solution for the Palistinian people by waking up the other Arab countries and the world to their plight. It is most certainly showing worldwide people who the barbarians are - the US, NATO and Israel to be clear.

I sometimes feel almost selfish sitting safely in a home, in a place where war is not raging. When I think of Palestine, congo, Yemen, Syria and any of the 40 some places where conflict is raging. It's just so incredibly sad. And all these countries closing their doors to refugees. This world feels colder and just more violent than ever. It's sad. And yet we watch in horror, while our governments take part without our consent. It's all SO DYSTOPIAN! And here we have good people losing jobs in the US for opposing genocide. This is a broken world

I welcome immigrants Jenny; my father was one, from a tiny country which 99% of Amerikkans couldn’t locate on a map.

It’s supremely arrogant to tell “foreigners”, “okay, WE can live here but YOU can’t!” Especially when it comes to the lovely Mexican people, half of whose country we stole.

That being said, I’d love to live in Ireland: the beauty of the land itself, the friendliness and spirit of the people, the Irish neutrality in war, the Sinn Fein party.

Unfortunately it’s become difficult to emigrate there if one hasn’t got Irish ancestry, which I sadly do not.

Gypsy I think you are unique with regard to immigrants, I too welcome them and our Town here has become so much nicer since the S.Americans arrived. However what I do see happening in many Countries is politicians using them as a 'weapon.' Predominantly scaring people into thinking they will take jobs and health away from citizens. It was just used in Holland and is being used here in France as well.

I am so sick of it, the S. Americans here are doing the work most French people won't do.

I feel the same. On Thanksgiving, I felt little gratitude, only profound guilt. Why should I have the privilege of a comfortable home and plenty to eat? I feel as though I should be in Gaza, helping in any way I possibly can ; I may be a senior, but I’m still a strong farm girl.

I am also a Senior and what I can do is stand in protests (not for too long) and help people in our community. Guilt is negative as I am sure you know. I try to talk to people and smile. Also donating to a charity which you know is honest?

And Russia.

Basically the Ukraine gambit failed. And China didn’t take the bait and invade Taiwan.

So the psychopaths with their bla k chequebook have doubled down with a new bet. Use the Middle East to trigger a global war. That’s why they said “no red lines”.

They just want global war.

If this bid fails to draw Iran and Iraq in, their next bid will be to put in office in Taiwan a “Zelenskyy” who will let them do whatever they want to do to force a war with China. Which too till trigger WW III.

The world’s biggest country has crumbling bridges and roads, rampant inequality, a debt crisis, a physical health crisis and a mental health crisis. And the only ideas its “leaders” can offer is to first destroy half the world and then ensure their own destruction in a nuclear holocaust. And the “leaders” of its allies are cowards who comply with self destruction.

Wow. This is progress? Maybe it’s better if AI takes over. Humans are freaking retarded.

I’m afraid World War III has begun in earnest. It is just not what we all expected- the beginning and the end, and everything in between, taking about an hour and a half. What you describe as World War III, whenever it starts, will be the 90 minute denouement. Have to admit to being surprised.

"The world’s biggest country..." Hmm. Area-wise I guess that's Russia & population-wise that's probably India slightly ahead of China.

And the only ideas its “leaders” can offer is to first destroy half the world and then ensure their own destruction in a nuclear holocaust."

China, for example, is very rapidly addressing homelessness (almost 100% successful now) & gob-smacking infrastructure projects, etc. etc., etc., that the Chinese people know is for them all to enjoy except for any greedy wastrels who are quite rightly kept in check by social credit measures.

What lies behind Benjamin Netanyahu’s lies and Hamas’s evasions

by Thierry Meyssan

The official version of the Hamas-Israel war raises more questions than it answers. Here, the author highlights seven major contradictions. On reflection, Hamas and Benjamin Netanyahu, far from being enemies, are acting in concert with no regard for the lives of Palestinians or Israelis. Behind them, the United States and the United Kingdom are pulling the strings.

To say I am somewhat obsessed with this would be an understatement and ONLY because of the horrific nature, being allowed to continue. Where does that lead us into the future? I'm not referring to the outcome but rather what if anything will ever be off limit's? Will we start tossing nukes like footballs? That being said I have now read numerous variations and how this came to be. His seven major unanswered questions hold a lot of validity and something I had not read elsewhere. Cheers!

Reading this... I struggle with this assertion: “These forces are not installed to threaten Turkey, Qatar or Iran, which the Western press accuses of being involved in the Hamas attack, but off the coast of Israel, in Beirut and Hamat. They are encircling Israel. And Israel alone.” I don’t think there is any evidence, certainly not in the article, to support this. The official line of course is that US heavy machinery is there as a deterrent to anyone who might be thinking of leaping to Palestinian rescue, or other more opportunist actions. As others have noted, it is also a show of strength to face down BRICS. I appreciate we must think and think again about the layers of this “game” but I’m not seeing anything that points to US tacitly squaring up to Israel?

Agree! At first glance it appears to be a stretch. However . . . . considering we know so very little regarding the extent of the nefariousness of all parties concerned, at this time I don't think we can take anything off the table! I have read at least a dozen or so varying scenario's with regard to the reasoning.

I will say this, it makes no sense whatsoever that Israel is committing suicide! The entire world albeit a mere handful of Countries - is vehemently against what they are doing! They will not recover from this. Kids today are not nearly as familiar per se with the Holocaust - but they sure as hell are witnessing this first hand. Listen to this tirade against Israel - addressing the General Assembly:

I think it’s a Zionist experiment. It may well be that the people pulling the strings couldn’t give a monkeys about Jews or Arabs or anyone else. There is money and power. A game of chess. 99.9% of humans aren’t even pawns. We’re dirt on the board. They believe they will get away with it. History has been on their side. Even if say, a massive hack, bonafide or inside job, took out TikTok, Substack, FB, IG, X, with all posts lost... fingers would point but would the truth come out? Another angle is that the experiment is out of control. That offers some support for the idea of US carriers hanging around... but what could they do, what would they do? Invade Jerusalem and announce they had beheaded Hamas and ISIS, slain the dragon? If you watch Low-key, say, with his impeccable tracing of who gets paid, it all starts to look rather horribly simple. As Ice T rapped in the 90s, “I gotta get more money than you got. So what if some MF get shot?” Then again, there is weird stuff, black magic, at high levels...
