Moreover, “israel” does not legally exist and can’t exist on Palestinian land without the express permission of the Palestinians. ALL of “israel” is Palestine.
Not according to the corrupted Western media and governments.
There's the disgrace. I come from one of those weak government countries myself and just hate the idea of their inability to respect the position of Palestine, who in my book have done nothing to justify any aspect of the genocide they are suffering at the moment.
All started from the dregs of the dying British Empire, a man called Balfour who in 1917 considered that they had the right to determine the status for that part of the Middle East and how it was populated, a country that had been populated by Palestinians living peacefully.
So the corrupt nature of Western governments goes back that far and with a bit more research, even further. The same mentality exists today with the UK's Starmer, a Zionist controlled British PM and similarly with the ' rest of the West'. Yes, even Germany, equally as Zionist controlled as both houses of the US government in 2025, currently sitting at 86%. (A revised figure will be available after the next mandatory AIPAC meeting in the US, counted as they go through the door, when they all fulfil their obligations to Jewish sponsors like Miriam Adelson and vote accordingly, as they all did with Trump)
Today, realistically, 0ver 200,000 Palestinian deaths, all with American assistance......and how!
The British Empire is long past and soon that will be the case for the US Empire as well, deservedly so. A hated bully, corrupt and immoral. It has no respect from any country and as Kissinger said, "To be an enemy of America can be dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal". What an option.
Foreign US military bases estimated at 750. These are the first things that have to close down.. The sooner the better.
Far from mere complicity, the us, uk and germany are active participants in this genocide. “israel” could not conduct the genocide without the weapons, hardware and support provided by these countries. The Gaza genocide is biden’s legacy: he could have stopped it in October 2023. A war criminal with cancer is still a war criminal. I hope he suffers like cancer patients in Gaza, indeed all victims of israel’s crimes in Gaza.
IMAGE? HERE'S ONE Israel's Partner in Genocide - Microsoft
According to Nate Bear’s column today on Substack, “Microsoft has helped enable some of the worst crimes against humanity we’ve ever seen.”
I quote:
“Microsoft employs large numbers of people who quite literally helped build the digital infrastructure underpinning a genocidal apartheid state. Many of these people continue their work to further the goal of ethnic cleansing and Israeli domination of the region, only now as civilians for Microsoft (although in some cases as de facto IDF, embedded in the Israel army).
Far from being harmless, these people are the architects of harm.
Vin, the problem of Israelis is rampant in the WHOLE tech industry, not just Microsoft. It is especially bad in Silicon Valley. Since (almost) EVERY Israeli has to go through IDF training, almost every Israeli that you hire in the tech sector is a 'former Israeli IDF member'. There are major technology and tech-business relationships between Israeli's tech (and start-up) sectors and America's. Israelis have basically INVADED the U.S. tech sector/industry, making weeding them out quite challenging (as evidenced by the support they receive from the tech-bros).
I don't think it's a coincidence that some of the spyware known to be sold to governments for use in surveillance against citizens and dissidents, is Isreali in origin (see: Pegasus)
Hi Chang, This makes me ill, of course. Have been aware of it in some form or another for a while, at least since I read Whitney Webb's two books. But yesterday sort of hammered it into my head, between Bear's post, and another video I watched of a pissed-off Microsoft engineer addressing what appeared to be a largely sympathetic group of Microsoft employees on this topic. But I guess I should sicken myself further and read the Loewenstein you refer to. We already know that it's no longer anything but silly to speak of US foreign policy because it's functionally US-Israeli foreign policy. Now we wonder if it's really even correct to say US economy without slipping the slimy adjectival "Israeli" in there. Appalling.
Yes, I really recommend the Loewenstein book. It was an eye-opener for me about the level of collaboration between Israel and other nations (including in the Global South) in the technology and weapons industries. There is a long history of Israel being the world's incubator of 'weapons of mass exploitation and terrorism' that this book made me aware of - and yet the book only scratches the surface (as explained by Loewenstein in the book) of this issue.
Indeed genocide is being committed in Gaza by Israel. Genocide is always and everywhere evil and the people who commit it are also evil. It’s the only logical conclusion.
Murdering people to steal their land is the rock bottom motivation and using God & the endless repetition of the Holocaust to justify murder and theft is their excuse. Murder and theft are evil and I got that from the highest authority, God Himself, who said so in the Ten Commandments. It’s not at all complicated.
You're spot on again Caitlin. Israel slaps our faces by continuing the siege in Gaza though they know hardly anybody wants it, that the world is disgusted by such wanton violence. It's hard to tell which is the most stunning insult - that, or Trump's craving to make Gaza a tourist resort. That on the backs of dead innocent people. It's so sickening, I trust it will never happen. Israelis need to be relocated - to some part in America. There's plenty of space here and the two are in bed together. The Palestinian people need to go back to Gaza. The world could help them rebuild.
is it true that some of the participants ie the ones we're supposed to believe are 'the good ones' returned to IDF duty ie back to committing genocide/aiding in ethnic cleansing, after they spoke to Breaking the Silence?
You may also check that website for their calendar of events and lectures to meet some of their members. You may also contact Veterans For Peace https://www.veteransforpeace.org/
Ask about how many soldiers have committed suicide to end their own participation in genocide or ethnic cleansing. Ask about how many are afflicted by PTSD and alcohol and other drug addictions to manage their guilt and personal demons.
"Too many people get intimidated away from speaking out about Gaza by an erroneous but widespread notion that this is an issue best left to the experts."
I know I was one of these people... I'd fallen for the "it's too complicated" line and kept quiet about what was happening in Israel/Palestine a few years back. But the first photos I saw and the first articles I read told me all I needed to know. It's a genocide. You don't bomb babies and innocent women, children and men for any other reason than ethnic cleansing. Izrealhellis are simply despicable.
I'd say longer. You ever read about how the US turned Jewish refugee ships away before we entered WWII? How IBM and Ford Motor Company did great business with the Nazi Party during the war? Going back a bit further... Congress went along with Pres. Andrew Jackson's removal of the Eastern tribes along the Trail of Tears. You could say that to support genocide IS to be an American politician!
You are correct about the history of American genocides, but I was referring specifically to the one in Palestine. Eretz Israel did not exist prior to its creation in 1948 within the British colony of Palestine.
The entire colonization of North, Central and South America involved various forms of genocide and apartheid for more than 500 years. Similar methods applied in the European and British conquest of Africa and parts of Asia and Australia for more than four centuries.
I tried to let my daughter form her own opinions but seeing rows of dead babies was all it took. She knows much more now which has only confirmed her initial impression.
Thanks Caitlin! I admire and thank you for your passion.
Those Israelis perpetrating the genocide have absolutely lost the plot of humanity and they disgust me, but our government's refusing to stand up against genocide until perhaps the very last minute, is no better!
That is similar to the comments I get to my posts opposing this zionist Israeli genocide, only the ones I get are slightly, and vulgarly, more elaborate and impossible for me, or anyone else to achieve.
It makes me laugh at how ridiculous it is because they have no argument against my posts, at all, just course suggestions that show them up for being Zionists, who seem obsessed by genitalia as seen by the way the IOF always root about for woman's lingerie to prance about in. What does that show about them to the world?
It is a major problem with these creatures. They have the largest child sex trafficking organization on the planet of Palestinian children and always talk about rape. They rape their own women and the men in their dungeons. These creatures are not human.
If we only opposed things happening where we had been, the world would be in an even worse mess than it is now. Israel is spreading its vile, inhumane, revolting ideology. We HAVE to speak out against the genocide they are committing as we watch and while we are at it, we might want to make a comment or two on how they are seeping into other places, especially south America. https://consortiumnews.com/2025/05/16/el-salvadors-dictatorship-made-in-israel/
As for South America, the Monroe Doctrine claims all of South and Central America as colonies of the USA. It’s all about access to natural resources at discount prices.
True, because zionism has infiltrated governments all over the world, or married those who are in high positions. This has been planned so far back it's hard to find, but it has been going on many, many decades so furtively it wasn't recognised by yhe average person until it came out into the open. The problem is, can this genie be put back in the bottle before it's too late to save humanity from it's terrible greed?
>>"The problem is, can this genie be put back in the bottle before it's too late to save humanity from it's terrible greed?"
It will either destroy humanity (in many large parts) or humanity will need to FIND a way to eradicate the CANCER that is Zionism. Also, I suspect it will take much time - multiple decades even - the future is too uncertain currently...
True, the Scofeld reference bible played huge part by giving itto new pastors a d spreading iit around America mainly. That plan started in 1905, if you find one of new editions it will state that scofeld, a convicted criminal who did gaol time, turned to Judaism as the author, and still its editor - he was Middle-aged then so would need to be about 150 or more now.
"I say this because I see too many people get intimidated away from speaking out about Gaza by an erroneous but widespread notion that this is an issue best left to the experts."
This is just a way of avoiding responsibility. They know what the PMC consensus is and they know that there are serious personal and professional consequences from straying from that consensus. Being wrong or even evil carries no consequences, but being risky does.
I had a conversation with a German woman a month or two ago, highly placed as a partner in an international law firm. She recited the usual platitudes about Ukraine, and I remarked that the war wasn't unprovoked at all. "What do you mean?!"" "Well, Angela Merkel herself, as well as Hollande and Poroshenko, all stated that Ukraine never had any intent to carry out Minsk or Minsk-2, that both agreements were a sham." "You're....right..." she gasped.
She she quickly changed the subject, lest wrongthink ensue.
I have no time for zionists. I want nothing to do with the evil pricks. Israel is a country that does not deserve to exist, period.
Moreover, “israel” does not legally exist and can’t exist on Palestinian land without the express permission of the Palestinians. ALL of “israel” is Palestine.
Sadly, David.
"ALL of Israel is Palestine".

Yes, you don't need to be an expert. You just need to have a conscience.
Bingo!
Every conscience has a voice needing to be heard.
Thank you, Robert. Very beautifully put.

"The Palestine Laboratory: How Israel Exports the Technology of Occupation Around the World" by Antony Loewenstein [https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/121075698-the-palestine-laboratory] is an excellent book that goes into more detail on this subject.

Okay, thank you. Next on my list after Hedges' current one on Gaza.
Tech, banking, media, pharma...
Such an important point, Caitlin. Genocide is just plain wrong, and that isn't complicated.
Indeed genocide is being committed in Gaza by Israel. Genocide is always and everywhere evil and the people who commit it are also evil. It’s the only logical conclusion.

Take a look at this: https://www.breakingthesilence.org.il/
There are Israelis, including former IDF soldiers who are opposed to the Zionists and the illegal “settlers” who have been invading Palestine.
is it true that some of the participants ie the ones we're supposed to believe are 'the good ones' returned to IDF duty ie back to committing genocide/aiding in ethnic cleansing, after they spoke to Breaking the Silence?
I do not yet know any of the participants, personally. You can ask your questions via email to mailto:info@breakingthesilence.org.il

Ignorance is rampant.
Worse yet, society allows ignorant and hateful fools to breed without a license to produce replicas of themselves for their home-schooling programs.
It is a major problem with these creatures. They have the largest child sex trafficking organization on the planet of Palestinian children and always talk about rape. They rape their own women and the men in their dungeons. These creatures are not human.
Genocide anywhere is wrong God Help Them Survive Thrive
If we only opposed things happening where we had been, the world would be in an even worse mess than it is now. Israel is spreading its vile, inhumane, revolting ideology.

Genocide is part of the American heritage.
As for South America, the Monroe Doctrine claims all of South and Central America as colonies of the USA. It’s all about access to natural resources at discount prices.
Israel isn't even a nation. Calling it a nation is like saying cancer is part of the body and has a right to be there.
There is a Terrorist Made Up State that has Nukes. Why? Cancel it.
No subject is above you…If you have a voice, use it!
Beware of those who say it’s better left to “experts.”
I am Catholic and 9th of 10 kids. 5 of us served in the US military; 1 in Vietnam. We oppose Israel’s genocide of Palestinians.
Zionism is as bad as Naziism and in the future it will be shut down as firmly as that was
>>"and in the future it will be shut down as firmly as that was"
I only hope that you're right, though to destroy Zionism will take a lot more effort than destroying Nazism did (IMHO).
True, because zionism has infiltrated governments all over the world, or married those who are in high positions. This has been planned so far back it's hard to find, but it has been going on many, many decades so furtively it wasn't recognised by yhe average person until it came out into the open.

It will either destroy humanity (in many large parts) or humanity will need to FIND a way to eradicate the CANCER that is Zionism. Also, I suspect it will take much time - multiple decades even - the future is too uncertain currently...
The Zionists have been at it for more than 130 years. They have had the support of Big Money financiers.
I think Zionism tied to Christian Evangelicals is a long way from being ended.
True, the Scofeld reference bible played huge part by giving itto new pastors a d spreading iit around America mainly. That plan started in 1905, if you find one of new editions it will state that scofeld, a convicted criminal who did gaol time, turned to Judaism as the author, and still its editor - he was Middle-aged then so would need to be about 150 or more now.
