Cat Waters leaves in 3 weeks—if she can raise the funds. Let’s work together to push her over
the finish line so she can help make a difference for the people of Palestine!
The U.S./Israeli hostage rescue operation was a massive violation of the Law of War, especially as it pertains to the issue of proportionality.
There is no legal jurisdiction that would certify a claim that rescuing four hostages is worth 200-plus civilians.
Even the Israeli Supreme Court agrees this outcome is a gross violation of the principle of proportionality—as it set out in a 2004 decision.
The question now is whether the ICC will have the moral integrity to set forth an additional indictment against Israel, and an indictment against the U.S.
Don’t hold your breath.
oooooo
Israel, with U.S. assistance, launched a so-called “hostage rescue” mission in Gaza.
Four Israeli hostages were rescued.
Three others, including an American citizen, were killed.
Along with more than 200 Palestinian civilians.
The IDF force took casualties, with at least one senior commander being killed.
In any normal society, this operation would be classified as a failure, and investigations launched.
In Zionist Israel, they are celebrating.
A question for Biden: what role did the U.S. military/intelligence community play in facilitating the murder of an American citizen at the hands of the IDF.
And is it acceptable practice for the U.S. to support military operations that kill hundreds of civilians to recover hostages whose release could have been secured simply by implementing a viable ceasefire?

Theodore Postol: If I were Ukrainian, I would hate this guy Zelensky.
I’m speaking as a Ukrainian now.
What he is doing is he is killing his own people at a fantastic rate in order to try to make it appear to a group of total ignoramuses in the West that something is happening that could save Ukraine.
Ukraine has lost this war.
There is nothing that can save Ukraine unless the Russians for some completely unknown reason decide to put down their arms and go home.
Otherwise nothing can save Ukraine.
Nothing at all.
This war is totally lost.
The Russians have not even begun to bring in the full military power they have at their disposal.
They have 300,000 troops, fresh, fully trained, fully equipped, ready to inject into Ukraine right now. There is nothing you can do. So the best thing to do is to try to stop the killing. That’s what I think is the most important thing to do. So when Zelensky calls up these young people in Ukraine, first of all he is destroying his economy. Theodore Postol is Professor of Science, Technology and National Security Policy in the Program in Science, Technology, and Society at MIT. He did his undergraduate work in physics and his graduate work in nuclear engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After receiving his Ph.D., Dr. Postol joined the staff of Argonne National Laboratory, where he studied the microscopic dynamics and structure of liquids and disordered solids using neutron, x-ray and light scattering, along with computer molecular dynamics techniques. Subsequently he went to the Congressional Office of Technology Assessment to study methods of basing the MX Missile, and later worked as a scientific adviser to the Chief of Naval Operations. After leaving the Pentagon, Dr. Postol helped to build a program at Stanford University to train mid-career scientists to study developments in weapons technology of relevance to defense and arms control policy. In 1990 Dr. Postol was awarded the Leo Szilard Prize from the American Physical Society. In 1995 he received the Hilliard Roderick Prize from the American Association for the Advancement of Science and in 2001 he received the Norbert Wiener Award from Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility for uncovering numerous and important false claims about missile defenses.

Israel has deleted this tweet, a confession of genocidal intent.
It made clear Israel believes Gaza’s entire population have collective guilt.
The point was to diminish outrage at slaughtered civilians, because they’re not ‘innocent’.
They even paid to make the tweet an ad.

GAO ZHIKAI: “I think the Dutch are really doing something foul because they traveled all the way from Europe to East Asia and claim that they are exercising supervision on behalf of the United Nations.
The fact that their helicopter became aloft very close to the largest metropolis in China—Shanghai—raised concerns on the Chinese side.
The Chinese Navy and the Air Force are fully justified to take action against such interference, and for the Dutch side to pretend to be the victim is really a double standard.
Fortunately, this didn’t end up in real friction between the two sides.
The Dutch side needs to be warned that if they repeat such acts of infringement against Chinese law, they will be held fully responsible.
We know that in recent months, there have been quite a few countries, like Canada and others, which have claimed that their airplanes or naval ships were being monitored.
First of all, all these countries are not neighboring countries with China.
They came from afar—Canada is on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, and the Netherlands is on the other side of the Eurasian continent.
Why did they travel this length to East Asia?
I think they acted under the direction of the United States, which wants to strengthen the so-called first island chain and the second island chain to try to suffocate China and prevent the Chinese naval forces, air forces, and otherwise from going beyond these chains into the Pacific.
I think the Netherlands, this time again, is acting in concert with the United States and on their behalf, trying to raise tensions in East Asia and really muddle the water rather than create stability in our part of the world.
If these countries are really worried that the Chinese planes or naval ships are getting closer to them to monitor their movements and ask for their information, the best way is to stay far away from China rather than encroach upon it and violate China’s legitimate security interests.
If they really want to test the willpower of the Chinese nation as to how to defend China’s sovereignty and legitimate territorial interests, then they need to be prepared for all the consequences.
I think it is very important to take note of the fact that there are indeed important Western countries—especially members of the NATO alliance—that are becoming more and more hostile against China.
They keep talking about a confrontation with China because they say China’s values are different from theirs.
Are you really serious?
What kind of values are you talking about?
Are you talking about values from 100 years in your history, 200 years in your history, or values from your darkest days of colonial power, enslaving people, and selling people like slaves? Come on.
So I think it is dangerous to see that certain countries want to follow the US leadership, for example, in instigating greater antagonism between China and the United States.
Some even claim that war is destined between China and the United States.
Countries like the Netherlands need to use their own brains to think about the reality in the world of today.
They need to fully stand for peace rather than be hijacked onto the bandwagon of war between and among major countries in the world of today.”

UN ACCUSES ISRAEL OF “EXTERMINATION” OF PALESTINIANS
A United Nations Commission of Inquiry has concluded that Israel has committed crimes against humanity during the war in Gaza.
“The crimes against humanity of extermination; murder; gender persecution targeting Palestinian men and boys; forcible transfer; and torture and inhuman and cruel treatment were committed.”
The probe also accuses several Palestinian groups of committing “war crimes” since the war in Gaza began.
Israel has rejected the findings, accusing the UN Commission of Inquiry of long-standing “systematic anti-Israeli discrimination.”

VLADIMIR PUTIN:
“We cannot rely on and exploit others, as the United States does.
Every year, the United States has a US$1 trillion trade deficit.
What is this? I believe everyone present here will understand what I mean.
This is a modern version of neocolonialism.
By using the dollar’s monopolistic status, the United States consumes US$1 trillion more annually than it produces.
It extracts these resources from other countries.
We spoke about the pandemic period earlier.
What did they do?
I do not recall the exact amount of money the United States printed, but it totalled over US$5 trillion.
By the way, Europe printed an estimated 3.4 trillion euros.
What did they do next? They circulated all these banknotes domestically and then started buying foods on the global food market.
They absorbed all these resources within their country, acting like a vacuum cleaner, and for the first time in many years, they became net food buyers and importers, rather than exporters.
As a result, global food inflation skyrocketed.
However, we cannot behave in the same way, and we do not monopolise the global currency market, the way the US dollar is doing.
We have never acted like colonialists or neo-colonialists.
In this case, we should, of course, rely on our economic potential and assess it realistically, which is what we are doing.
Naturally, we are considering diversification in order to balance the current industrial situation, the real economy and the future situation.
This is how everything is developing.”

Congress Must Investigate the USS Liberty Incident
(https://rumble.com/v510zux-the-uss-liberty-is-a-pivot-to-restore-the-congress.html)
Should a US Congressman serve the military or government of another country? Should the US Congress give benefits to those who serve other countries and NOT the interests of the citizens of the US? Should America be in perpetual wars?
