Having cornered itself into isolation from the rest of the world for supporting the Zionist genocide in Palestine, the US is flailing about like a headless chicken with one-off, haphazard, reactive positions that go nowhere: sanction a few settlers here and there, calling Netanyahu asshole, sending pathetic aid to a starving 2.3 million people by air or by sea....
The Israeli tail is still wagging the big fumbling American dog.
But finally, hope looms on the horizon: After months of backing the genocide of the Palestinian people by the terrorist Zionist settler government and sending more arms to conduct said genocide, the US is finally calling for a ceasefire. Remember that calling for a ceasefire has been a death sentence for any American advocating it: Antisemitic, anti-patriotic, terrorist, ... were some of the labels attached to those who want "equal treatment" under the law for both the foreign invading Zionists and the native indigenous Palestinians.
Imagine how, in order to achieve peace, the Palestinians have been generous for accepting that the foreign Jewish invaders keep the land they stole from them, and for forgiving the rabid Zionists for their rape of Palestine. But as the proverb says, "Even if your friend is made of honey, you just can't lick it all off". Colonization is dépassé. Racism is dépassé. Barbaric claims of Jewish racial supremacy over Arabs, of Israelis over Palestinians, when they are really two peas in a pod, just no longer make sense in this 21st century. But violent Zionist terrorists belong to the Bronze Age and they can't seem to extricate themselves out of Yahweh's stupid religious swamps.
The spectacle of the giant US unable, fearful, sissy, castrated and incapable of imposing its will on its own subsidiary colony in Palestine is risible. Perhaps the Zionist colony in Palestine should use its might to overturn the US government (some say Trump and Netanyahu are trying to do just that), secede from America, cut that umbilical cord, become truly independent and no longer depend on the massive American aid without which it couldn't survive 24 hours. Just like the American colonists back in the late 1770s, known as revolutionaries, continentals, rebels, etc. by the French, but as terrorists by the English, and who declared their independence from mother England. The Zionist colonists should declare they've grown up and no longer want or need their American Mama's protection and its lifeline. They probably think that Yahweh (Yahweh-Akbar) is on their side and that he will save them, and that they can survive another day in Palestine without America's financial, economic and military backing. Let them try.
The daring BBS trio - Biden-Blinken-Schumer - is finally calling for a ceasefire. Not out of heightened ethics. Not out of pity for the Palestinian children. Not out of once, just once, doing the right thing for those human rights they keep propping up against their rivals whenever convenient. But rather, they are calling for a ceasefire because they are terrified at the perspective that no international partner will ever take the side of the US in future conflicts. Remember how the whole world stood by the US after 9-11? That ain't happening again. But perhaps more than anything else, what is driving the sudden American conversion away from blindly endorsing Zionist violence, is Biden-Blinken-Schumer's dwindling chances at remaining in the White Outhouse and in the lead in the Senate.
Just like Netanyahu declares his US-armed Jewish terrorist militia to be the "most moral army in the world", the Americans have long condescendingly lectured the world about human rights, while continuously violating them in their own land. All the stuff about "Manifest Destiny", "Shining City on a Hill", and such self-proclaimed annointments of grandeur... has turned out to be fluff and a smokescreen to hide an imperial, racist, genocidal, white supremacist monstrosity behind it.
On January 9, 1961, the first Catholic ever to be elected president, John F. Kennedy, said in an address to the general court of Massachusetts:
... I have been guided by the standard John Winthrop set before his shipmates on the flagship Arabella three hundred and thirty-one years ago, as they, too, faced the task of building a new government on a perilous frontier. "We must always consider", he said, "that we shall be as a city upon a hill—the eyes of all people are upon us".
But then the Protestants killed Kennedy. Now Joe Biden is America's second Catholic president in all 248 years of its existence, and the neanderthal White Anglo-Saxon Protestants of the Republican Party can't countenance him as a president. Even his Catholic Ireland of origin has denounced him as "Butcher Biden" [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndaf7LYsIc8], [https://lebanoniznogood.blogspot.com/2024/01/butcher-biden-frau-genocide-van-der.html].
Biden needs to show moral strength and overcome his 80-year-old WWII-vintage nostalgia. Times have changed. It's another century. The victim has become a criminal, Joe; adjust to it. No crime can have such a long shelf-life that it becomes a routine excuse for the victim to become the criminal. Biden needs to shown strength not only behind the dais at the State of the Union, but in his own mind; it's tough to keep one's integrity; it's tougher to outgrow fossilized states of mind from another era. The whole world is watching America crawl like a slithering worm at the feet of its Zionist masters and violate every one of its proclaimed values.
Will Biden himself finally "come to Jesus" and bequeath his country the unprecedented legacy of having emancipated America from the Zionist stranglehold?

U.S. FINALLY Pressures Israel by Submitting ‘Immediate’ Gaza Ceasefire Resolution at U.N
The U.S. has submitted a draft resolution to the U.N. Security Council calling for an “immediate” ceasefire in Gaza, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Wednesday, after months of repeatedly blocking similar calls.
Speaking in an interview with Saudi news channel Al-Hadath, Blinken said Washington, D.C. is now pressing for a ceasefire “tied to the release of hostages” being held by Hamas. He said that the resolution would send a “strong signal” and that while the U.S. supports Israel’s right to defend itself, “it’s imperative that the civilians who are in harm’s way and who are suffering so terribly—that we focus on them, that we make them a priority, protecting the civilians, getting them humanitarian assistance.”
Blinken was asked about how the U.S. is pressuring Israel to protect civilians while still supplying American arms and finances to Jerusalem, as well as vetoing any resolution that calls for a ceasefire at the U.N. Since the conflict erupted in October, the U.S. has vetoed three such resolutions, including one last month that attracted wide support—including from the U.S.’ allies, though Britain abstained—on the grounds that it could jeopardize negotiations involving Qatar, Egypt, and Israel to secure the hostages’ release.
Of the negotiations, which are still yet to secure a new truce, Blinken said an agreement is “getting closer” and that the “gaps are narrowing.” “I believe it’s very much doable, and it’s very much necessary,” he said. “And of course, if Hamas cares at all about the people it purports to represent, then it would reach an agreement, because that would have the immediate effect of a ceasefire, alleviating the tremendous suffering of people, bringing more humanitarian assistance in, and then giving us the possibility of having something more lasting.”
He also reiterated the Biden administration’s opposition to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s stated goal of invading the southern Gaza city of Rafah. Blinken said there is “no effective way” of getting the 1.4 million Palestinians currently sheltering in the city to safety ahead of such a ground operation, and that an Israeli team will travel to the U.S. next week “different way of dealing with the remaining problem of Hamas in Rafah,” though he declined to provide details on what alternative options could be considered.
Blinken’s comments came amid reports Wednesday that the U.S. has received written assurances from Israel claiming that its use of American-made weapons in Gaza is not breaching humanitarian laws. The State Department now has until May to assess if the assurances are “credible and reliable” and report to Congress, as per a national security memorandum President Biden issued last month. Biden could halt arms transfers to Israel if the credibility of the assurances is called into question.
Human Rights Watch and Oxfam submitted a joint memorandum to the U.S. government on Tuesday alleging that Israel is using American weapons and blocking U.S.-funded humanitarian aid in Gaza in violation of international humanitarian laws and that any Israeli assurances to the contrary “are not credible.” The organizations said they had “observed or documented” indiscriminate and disproportionate attacks, the collective punishment of civilians, and the use of “starvation as a weapon of war.”
Israel denies breaking international law.
Nearly 32,000 people have been killed in Gaza—according to Palestinian health officials—over the course of the five-month conflict, which was launched in response to Hamas’ Oct. 7 attacks which Israeli officials say killed 1,200 people. U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres this week demanded that Israel allow humanitarian aid into the enclave after a report warned of an imminent famine, with Guterres calling the crisis “an entirely man-made disaster.”
