What do you call the actions of a state that’s destroyed another people’s hospitals, blocked all food and water reaching them, and is now denying entry to foreign doctors to treat the sick, wounded and starving?

Is it a war?

Is it eliminating terrorists?

Or is it genocide?

The classic, and perhaps one of the most embarrassing moments for Americans was when Donald Trump pulled out a picture from the Congo and claimed it was a burial site for victims of his imaginary “white genocide” in South Africa.

Imagine, America, with all its intelligence capabilities, having a president who not only embarrasses himself but his country too, lying on international television like that.

THE LVOV MOMENT

The Odessa Moment changes the course of the Special Military Operation.

The Lvov Moment changes Europe.

For some time now, I have been predicting that the Special Military Operation, or SMO, would be reaching what I termed “the Odessa Moment”, a decision point where Russia would offer Ukraine one last chance for peace before making the strategic decision to transition the conflict from a simple matter of restoring Russian sovereignty over the totality of its constitutional territory to the political and physical destruction of western Ukraine.

It’s official. I will be introducing a Bill for an independent public inquiry into the UK’s involvement in Israel’s assault on Gaza. The government must decide: will it support this inquiry, or will it block our efforts to establish the truth?

“Every child in Gaza is an enemy.” Read my October 2023 report to the UN General Assembly. You will see: the genocide in Gaza was predictable — and therefore, preventable. The int’l community has, so far, failed—profoundly and publicly. May today mark the beginning of a different path.

Israeli-backed ISIS-linked warlord, drug dealer & gang leader, Yasser Abu Shabab, is back; this time suited up in brand new military gear, manning a checkpoint in Rafah under IDF protection!

Abu Shabab‘s gang have been the key culprits of looting aid with Israel’s blessing. The looting often happened about 100 meters away from Israeli tanks & troops.

No Gazan is allowed into Rafah, which Israel depopulated & declared an “extermination zone”; meaning any Gazan that walks into Rafah is murdered immediately by Israeli troops.

So to see Abu Shabab in Rafah, showing off his gun & military gear (provided to him by Israel) is an extremely concerning sign of what lies ahead!

Microsoft is facing internal backlash over its provision of cloud services and AI tools to the Israeli military. The company is now reportedly blocking employee emails containing terms like “Palestine,” “Gaza,” and “genocide.”

The block was revealed by No Azure for Apartheid, a group of pro-Palestinian Microsoft workers, who say the company quietly activated the filter on its Exchange servers shortly after a protest at Microsoft Build 2025.

Resilience amidst siege

Venezuela’s supermarkets are 97% stocked.

90% of food is now domestically produced.

Trade with China rose 52.5% last year. U.S. sanctions were siege warfare—engineered to crash the economy, starve the population, and force regime collapse. They failed—but at immense human cost.

After the 2019 sanctions, oil revenues collapsed from $56 billion a year to just $700 million.

Earlier, the 2017 sanctions had already caused what CEPR estimates as over 40,000 deaths. Imports were blocked. The state’s key foreign assets—like CITGO—were looted and stolen.

Millions were driven into migration by engineered scarcity—openly fostered by Marco Rubio’s strategy to weaponize exodus as a tool for regime pressure.

A textbook case of economic warfare.

But instead of surrender, Venezuela turned inward and outward: sovereign production at home,

South-South cooperation abroad.

No IMF, no surrender—just defiance.

Today, every full shelf is a verdict.

Venezuela didn’t just survive the siege.

It outmaneuvered it.

The problem for western capitals is that Israel now stands stripped of the lamb’s clothing in which they have adorned it for decades.

Israel is all too evidently a predatory wolf. Its brutal, colonial behaviours towards the Palestinian people are fully on show. There is no hiding place.

This is why Netanyahu and western leaders are now engaged in an increasingly difficult tango. The colonial, apartheid, genocidal project of Israel – the West’s militarised client-bully in the oil-rich Middle East – needs to be protected.

Until now, that had involved western leaders like Keir Starmer deflecting criticism of Israel’s crimes, as well as British complicity. It involved endlessly and mindlessly reciting Israel’s “right to defend itself”, and the need to “eliminate Hamas”.

But the endgame of Israel’s genocide involves starving two million people to death – or forcing them out of Gaza, whichever comes first. Neither is compatible with the goals western politicians have been selling us.

So the new narrative must accentuate Netanyahu’s personal responsibility for the carnage – as though the genocide is not the logical endpoint of everything Israel has been doing to the Palestinian people for many decades.

Most Israelis are on board, too, with the genocide. The only meaningful voices of dissent are from the families of the Israeli hostages – and then chiefly because of the danger posed to their loved ones by Israel’s assault.

The aim of Starmer, Macron and Carney is to craft a new narrative, in which they claim to have only belatedly realised that Netanyahu has “gone too far” and that he needs to be reined in. They can then gradually up the noise against the Israeli prime minister, lobby Israel to change tack, and, when it resists or demurs, be seen to press Washington for “concrete action”.

The new narrative, unlike the worn-thin old one, can be spun out for yet more weeks or months – which may be just long enough to get the genocidal ethnic cleansing of Gaza either over the finish line, or near enough as to make no difference.

That is the hope – yes, hope – in western capitals.

Seems like a good time to remind everyone what Israel’s Mossad openly admitted just six months ago: ‘We create a pretend world. We are a global production company. We write the screenplay. We’re the directors. We’re the producers. We’re the main actors. The world is our stage.’

In response to the Israeli embassy killing in Washington, a JEWISH Congressman went on Fox News to suggest Gaza be “nuked” like Hiroshima.

Imagine a Muslim congressman said the same thing. Just imagine.

Why can they say things like this with impunity?
