Carthaginian Peace In The Levant

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr +

But that can’t be the opinion of the world – or can it?  The United Nations Human Rights Council filed a report that roundly denounced not only Israel’s military response, but also their flagrantly illegal imposition of a blockade of a sovereign nation.

It is becoming evident that the world is no longer satisfied with Israel’s excuses for their deplorable treatment of the Palestinians. Several nations have labeled Israel’s latest incursion into Gaza as genocide.

Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu:

“As Turkey, we have several goals. The first is an urgent stop of this [Israeli] aggression. There is no way to explain this massacre of Palestinian women and children. We are determined to [press the]international community to halt this attack.”

The Venezuelan government:

Israel has “initiated a higher phase of its policy of genocide and extermination with the ground invasion of Palestinian territory, killing innocent men, women, girls and boys.”

Turkey and Venezuela are not bulwarks of freedom and tolerance, but the fact that these statements are being made outside of the Middle East means they should be given some credence.  The fact that so few countries are coming out in support of Israel’s continued brutal suppression of Palestine is also telling.

The only real overt support seems to be coming from the United States.  As our country is beset with a fundamentalist conservative Republican tumor, it is nearly impossible to get a critical statement on the subject of Israel out of the federal government.

  1. Oh my gosh…the crazy far left nutjob returns. They say that a broken clock is still right twice a day, but nutjob Lucy Raed can’t even surpass that. Now she is a shill for the Islamic terrorist group Hamas as she spreads antisemitic hate on Israel. Somehow the fact that all of this started with the kidnapping and murder of three teenage boys by terrorists linked to Hamas seems to elude her. After the Israeli Security Agency made multiple raids to conduct arrests, Hamas started launching rockets into Israel. Israel retaliated and it has continued ever since. Hamas started it.

    Not only that, but Egypt brokered a peace deal between Israel and Palestine, but Hamas refused to sign off on it. Israel agreed to end hostilities, but Hamas did not. Israel also does everything it can to avoid civilian casualties. It takes the unusual step of calling the person whose home targeted so he or she has time to leave. Hamas, on the other hand, intentionally puts civilians, especially women and children, in harm’s way. They hide missiles in hospitals, schools, mosques and bunkers. They even booby-trapped a donkey with explosives so it would become a suicide bomber. (Talk about cruelty to animals!) Yet Hamas gets almost no blame and zero condemnation. It is excused as being a “symptom.”

    Wrong. The Palestinians knew what they were getting with Hamas when enough of them voted them into office. It’s charter seeks the destruction of Israel, which should make it obvious to anyone with an I.Q. higher than a walnut’s that it doesn’t want peace. Hamas and Fatah both brainwash children by teaching them to hate Jews and Israel from birth. Hamas, for those who don’t know, is an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, which Egypt recently had the sense to get rid of. The Muslim Brotherhood, in turn, comes out of Nazified Muslims who supported Hitler. They continue to love his book “Mein Kampf” as well as “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion.” Several years ago the most popular song in much of the Middle Eastern Muslim world was “I Hate Israel.” This is the mindset of Hamas. It is no better than ISIS, which is set to commit genocide against Christians and Shiites.

    Yet, like other brain-dead ultra far-left extremists, Raed blames the victim and pretty much ignores the aggressor. Hysterically she cites the tyrannical left-wing dictatorship in Venezuela and newly Islamist Turkey for support. Maybe she can call up David Duke and cite his opinion too.

  2. The Romans were very smart. They destroyed Carthage and sold its survivors into slavery. Carthage never bothered Rome again.

    Israeli politicians are stupid. They let Gaza attack Israel again and again. Just destroy Gaza and end the conflict already!
