Spot The Lone Objector

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Yesterday, Navi Pillay, the UN rights chief told an emergency session of the council on Wednesday that Israel's military actions in Gaza could amount to war crimes.

Shortly thereafter, the 47-member council voted (and adopted) a draft resolution titled "Ensuring respect for international law in the Occupied Palestinian Territory" to conduct an investigation whether Israel is indeed engaging in war crimes. Note: this was a vote just to conduct an investigation, nothing more nothing less, no military intervention, no aid, nothing: just an attempt to get some information aside from the constant propaganda barrage.

29 states voted in favour of the investigation and 17 abstained, including many EU states. 1 voted against. Guess which one.

There can be no clearer message to the poeple of the world, the citizens of the United States that the US does not respect international law. No news artcile could do a better job in sending a more powerful message. 

The US should be an international parihia, ejected from the UN, it's currency, products and servcies shunned.

Personally I shared the SHIT out of that photo with no comment - none needed.

Criticise Israelis for trying to kill of Palestinias the you are a jew hater, criticise Israel or an Israeli for anything makes you an anti-semite.  It is the standard response to any criticism of Israel or Israeli....but Im sure in another 100 years it will wear off and the claim want work anymore.

Israeli soldier posts Instagram image of Palestinian child in crosshairs of rifle

 

An Israeli soldier has sparked outrage by posting a photograph appearing to show the back of a Palestinian boy's head in the crosshairs of his sniper rifle on a social networking site.

The context of the picture, posted on the personal Instagram site of Mor Ostrovski, 20, could not be verified but the aggressive message is clear. The minarets and Arabic architecture of the village captured in the background suggest the boy and the town are Palestinian. Ostrovski is an Israeli soldier in a sniper unit.

“Even today I am willing to volunteer to do the dirty work for Israel, to kill as many Arabs as necessary, to deport them, to expel and burn them, to have everyone hate us, to pull the rug from underneath the feet of the Diaspora Jews, so that they will be forced to run to us crying. Even if it means blowing up one or two synagogues here and there, I don’t care. ... What you lot don’t understand is that the dirty work of Zionism is not finished yet, far from it.” 

-- Ariel Sharon, Haganah terrorist and Israeli PM, 1983


"The Israelis control the policy in the congress and the senate." 

-- Senator Fullbright, Chair of Senate Foreign Relations Committee: 10/07/1973 on CBS' "Face the Nation". 

"I am aware how almost impossible it is in this country to carry out a foreign policy [in the Middle East] not approved by the Jews..... terrific control the Jews have over the news media and the barrage the Jews have built up on congressmen .... I am very much concerned over the fact that the Jewish influence here is completely dominating the scene and making it almost impossible to get congress to do anything they don't approve of. The Israeli embassy is practically dictating to the congress through influential Jewish people in the country

-- Sec. of State John Foster Dulles quoted on p.99 of Fallen Pillars by Donald Neff 

"The Jews...wanted absolutely nothing except Palestine, not because the Dead Sea water by evaporation can produce five trillion dollars of metaloids and powdered metals; not because the sub-soil of Palestine contains twenty times more petroleum than all the combined reserves of the two Americas; but because Palestine is the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and Africa, because Palestine constitutes the veritable center of world political power, the strategic center for world control." 

-- (Nahum Goldman, President World Jewish Congress).

If I were an Arab leader I would never make terms with Israel. That is natural: we have taken their country . . . We come from Israel, but two thousand years ago, and what is that to them? There has been anti-semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They only see one thing: we have come here and stolen their country. Why should they accept that?


-- David Ben-Gurion to Nahum Goldmann, the president of the World Jewish Congress:

Just about any action in the UN that concerns treating Palestians in humanitarian ways, when put to a vote by the large body, comes out to something like 165 to 2.  Every resolution seeking to hold Israel accountable for violations of international law has been blocked by the US.  Jews control our media and Israel controls our federal politicians.

Then, Hamas kidnapped and murdered two teenagers, while maintaining the rain of rockets on Israel.

to be fair, they were given it by the British, who frankly didnt own it either. I read somewhere that while The Balfour Treaty was being written, some bright bulb suggested giving them Uganda instead. As if that wouldnt have upset the locals either!

This is just the resut of bad British Imperial diplomacy combined with a worldwide rotten conscience for the Holocaust. Who could have forseen the ensuing mess? 

Today, the troubles continue mostly because of Israeli reluctance to stop builing ILLEGAL SETTLEMENTS in the West Bank and Gaza combined with a blockade of all trade to those territories. If you push poeple enough, they will rebel, which is precisely what they are doing. If the elected officials of the Territories acnnot get Israel to stop even this basic crime, they cede control to the crazies; thus the missiles.

As i See it from my perch of ignorance, Israel is baiting them in the hope that eventually they will all go away and melt into Syria, Jordan, lebanon et al. In truth it looks to me more like the Warsaw Ghetto, and we all know how that ended.

Israel wouldn't be more than a sorry dot in history if it wasn't for the Jewish control of the United States Government.

Without the U.S. backing of their every move, the trillions sent to Israel for everything under the sun, subsidiziing their "free" health care, special tax breaks for owning land in Israel and only the devil knows what kinds of shenanigans that allows U.S. 'investors'  to get away with, and all the other support the U.S. provides against the wishes of 75% of the human beans in this country, Israel would not exist today.

So b 4 you take credit for 'winning' you might want to admit that a country 100 X the size of Israel is the reason this conflict wasn't settled a long time ago with Israel the flat out loser.

My esteemed colleague, a most-honored member of the 1%, a commonsewer of the best LBFM Porn ( http://lbfmsforever.tumblr.com/ )and sometime corpulent gadfly, Mr Budgie Twitters, says that Israel was quietly made the 51st state in November of 1945, and given Platinum card status among all of them.  There is only one other entity in the United States given this carte blanche rating which exempts it from all the laws of the United States, and that entity is The Swamp on the Potomac. 

There's a reason for this.

The Jewish Mafia on Wall Street and their relatives in Israel. 

With all the inbreeding of Jews, they are all very much related. 

There will never be a time when the United States Senators, Congresspeeps, governors, cabinets and Potuses and their henchmen will never be Meshugenah enough to exclude Israel from being at the head of the table.

And the resolution doesn't even mention Hamas rockets against Israel, each and every one a "war crime"?  And the positioning of the rockets in civilian homes and buildings, everyone a "war crime"?  And the very terms of the Hamas charter, every one - well not a "war crime" but certainly at odds with the UN charter.

And then look at the list of faggoty Yes votes and the even more faggoty abstentions (Europe).  Even if they knew (???!!) the US was going to veto. it's one more disgusting episode of UN fecklessness.

And I have to say, I'm mildly surprised the US *did* veto it.  I can't imagine they did it for Israel.  I suspect we might have done it for Saudi Arabia.

The US of A has a long history in vetoing in the UN.

The list of abstaining countries is better:

Austria, Benin, Burkina Faso, Czech republic, Estonia, France, Gabon, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Montenegro, Rep. of Korea, Romania, the republic of Macedonia, United Kingdom.

This is a the list of countries providing tacit support, 'american' countries and their satellites.

BRICS all voted yes. So much for Germany already on the side of BRICS. They probably did not receive the memo as they've switched to type writers for their administrative purposes.

'Americans' on this site tried to sell the idea that Germany was already on the BRICS side (many called for Germany to join the BRICS)

The BRICS voted as a block. Just as 'american' countries in Europe: not a single one did anything but abstaining. No diversity. Diversity is un-american. Homogeneity is 'american'.

For 'americans', the group is all.

Since I do not really understand WTF is going on  Israel & Gaza - I will just fall back on.

If you are weak don't start a fight with someone that is strong.

If you are weak and you do start a fight then don't be surprised when the stronger guy kicks your ass.

I think something like 1,600 rockets had been fired into Israel in the months before they invaded Gaza .

That qualifies as starting the fight - so WTF do you expect?

Forget the two-state solution. It's not workable. There is simply not enough land available. Israel should annex the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, grant the Palestinians citizenship and voting rights, and deal with any ensuing terrorist activities, by any and all parties, under criminal law.

Keeping up the fiction that the Palestinians are "refugees" is ridiculous. Plenty of Arabs -- 20% of the country's population -- are already Israeli citizens, and are perfectly content to remain as such.

But Israel won't do it, because they're afraid of exacerbating the demographic edge the Arabs already enjoy over the Jews. And a one-state solution is the last thing the Palestinian politicos want, because it'll cut them off from milking off their trapped sheeples' titties at will.

So we can expect the Hattfields and McCoys to keep going for each other's throats for the foreseeable future.

But the problem is that Israel is the one who started the fight - it's illegally occupying Palestinian territory and has been very abusive and violent toward the civilians.

One can predict how a country would vote based only on the color of their skin. It's black and brown vs mostly white Israel. The correlation is staggering.

This points out how RACISM is the motivating force in politics. In most third world countries, Jews are considered 'whites' and it's acceptable to criticize them, although 'hate' is really directed at non-Jewish whites.

Are black and brown: China, Peru, Russia, Vietnam.

Are not black and brown: Benin, Bostwana, Gabon.

The cry for the national home for the Jews does not make much appeal to me. The sanction for it is sought in the Bible and the tenacity with which the Jews have hankered after return to Palestine. Why should they not, like other peoples of the earth, make that country their home where they are born and where they earn their livelihood?

Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same sense that England belongs to the English or France to the French. It is wrong and in-human to impose the Jews on the Arabs.

Love 'em or hate 'em, them Jew boys can argue, haha...

ISIS is doing what winners do in war: It's shaping the facts on the ground. It wants no Christians in Iraq, and it's getting on with it. General Sisi wants to kill the Muslim Brotherhood: He's getting on with it. The wilier Brothers have slipped over into a collapsing Libya to make common cause with various al-Qaeda affiliates, as the Libyan state implodes: Its would-be successors are getting on with it. In the new Middle East, everyone and his uncle has an Obama-Clinton "Reset" button and they've pressed it.

But they're not Jews. So nobody minds, and no preening Botoxicated buffoon of an American emissary comes to lecture them.

"I've never seen a President — I don't care who he is — stand up to them. It just boggles the mind. They always get what they want. The Israelis know what is going on all the time. I got to the point where I wasn't writing anything down. If the American people understood what a grip these people have got on our government, they would RISE UP IN ARMS. Our citizens certainly don't have any idea what goes on."

Decimated foreign policy dripping with Fascism has a fingerprint. This one is colorized.

Perhaps the title of the vote should include "record bonuses," -- obviously something slipped through monetization and the blood-for-fraud factory.

The regime in the White House and State Department and in particular Obama-Kerry are, but the rest of the Democratic party who has some sense along with the Kennedy clan realize that Obama's mentally checking out of the job and leaving it to the WH Saul Alinsky wannabe staff know that bias against Israel could destroy the party.

I saw a man today on the cliff overlooking a 75-foot drop to the beach. He was throwing a ball way out onto the beach for his dog to scamper down the cliff, retrieve the ball and climb back up the rocky crags to lay the ball at his master’s feet.

It reminded me of Benjamin Netanyahu telling the Congress of the United States to show its loyalty in braving international disgust and their cowardice in obediently climbing the rocky crags to deliver yet another package of US Treasure to help murder the people of Gaza.

Trivia question......."What is the name of the largest aircraft carrier in the US Fleet?" Answer: "the USS Israel".  

Israel has and will long be the US first line projection of military power and attempted dominance in the middle east.  That is simply not going to change.  The region is too vital to US political and economic interests.....the Israeli's know this, its never even a question.

As for supporting an outbreak of democracy in the US to all those longing to enjoy American freedoms.  The reality is that two democratically elected governments in the middle east, Morsi's in Egypt and Hamas in Gaza have either been over thrown or under consistent attack with US complicity.  

Democracy, which expresses the will of the average person in middle eastern countries is a direct threat to US interests.  Ever wonder why you never see Iraqi leaders on US news programs at any point in the last 10 years.  Because they are likely to respond to interviewer questions with very awkward, for US interests, answers.  Ask yourself what the foreign policy of Iraq is toward Israel......anwer, deeply hostile.  After a decade of outright occupation and political dominance by US military and political forces the view of the average Iraqi toward Israel hasn't changed an inch.

So, how to view this reality?  The answer is simply what is happening now.  All US political leadership pays lip service to the principles of democratic institutions while actively seeking to block and undermine them in the middle east.   The US will arm any sympathetic government regardless of its legitimacy or composition.  Eqypts current ruling military clique easily rebuilt the stockpile of crowd control weaponry Mubarek's dictatorial regime expended trying to block the Egyptian people from having a role in their own government.

Arabs in middle eastern countries know exactly where the US really comes down.......its only American citizens victimized by "news" outlets like the Fox channel that have no clue.

Jewish Power is the problem

http://rinf.com/alt-news/war-terrorism/aipac-explanation-americas-morall...

Not really because Jews are worse than any other group of cunts - but because they have hijacked and biased US foreign policy, and conflated Israeli interests with those of the superpower.

Most of us aren't Jewish or "Christian-"Zionists, you know. I don't hate Israel or Israelis - I just don't give a fuck about them.

I don't give a fuck about Estonia, either - but they aren't costing me blood or treasure or spying on my government or constantly calling me an 'anti-Estonite' all while appearing in wildly disproportionate numbers in the news and entertainment media, where they perpetuate stories about their unique and sacred suffering while ignoring those of everyone else.

Wait, let me be the first, you anti Estonite you!  

I suspect your even hostile to the Estonian national anthem penned and sung by none other than Bob Dylan.  

What, you've never heard of it?!  Let me remind you of the opening bars of this classic.

Estonia when your walking down the street.......Estonia when your standing on your feet......

Remember now?

Mend your ways, anti Estonite.
