How Long Will the US Rideshare the Revolting Genocide Train in Gaza?

As long as Zionists keep squeezing Americans by the scrotal pouch, there's no way out of the incestuous relationship. Americans have been conditioned a la Pavlov to drool and become oblivious to non-Jewish human suffering at hearing words like antisemitism or Holocaust.

There is no escaping the Zionist mental Gulag except for a few daring risk-takers who get dragged in the mud for even suggesting that Israel might occasionally be wrong! Even Israel's midwife, the English Crookingdom, is pulling itself from the gooey Zionist tentacles, 100 years after gifting someone else's country (Palestine) to a bunch of wealthy European bankers who wanted their me-too colonial playground.

The atrocities currently committed in Palestine's Gaza and West Bank have finally exposed to the whole world the real fabric of Zionism: A colonial racist brute that keeps violating every law that humans have imagined for a better and decent world, and pretexting that since it was once the victim of Fascist German brutes, it should be allowed to rape another people, the Palestinian people. No longer perceived as the victima pessimus of everyone else, Zionists now hold the Guinness World record of the 21st century's Prime Colonial Genocider of Indigenous People.

Has America's longstanding friendship with Israel reached a breaking point?

Benjamin Netanyahu and his extremist right-wing government can’t win the “total victory” over Hamas that the Israeli prime minister repeatedly demands; even Israeli defense officials have said so. But he — or, more to the point, Israel — can lose.

With the starvation of Gaza, Netanyahu is hastening a break in the bipartisan U.S. support for Israel, support that has endured for the entire lives of most Americans. After straining that broad backing for two decades by denying Palestinians’ humanity and overtly courting Republicans over Democrats in the U.S., Netanyahu is inviting a complete rupture by his culpability for Gazan babies wasting away in the arms of their helpless parents.

Many more children and adults have died, of course, since the start of Israel’s war to avenge Hamas terrorists’ gruesome murders of 1,200 people and abduction of 251 more in their attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. This week the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry’s toll surpassed 60,000 killed, including 18,500 children. But for the most part, the world hasn't seen close-ups of kids’ corpses pulled from rubble after Israeli air strikes. Now, though, despite Israel’s restrictions against international reporters in Gaza, we’re increasingly seeing graphic videos and photos of dying, starving kids, as well as desperate, hungry adults.

Meanwhile, Israel continues its bombing and allows into Gaza a mere drip-feed of humanitarian aid, estranging some longtime allies — France, Britain and Germany among them — as well as Democrats and independents in the U.S. Congress who for much of Israel’s existence were Israel’s most stalwart supporters. That’s a loss that Israel literally can’t afford: For decades, it has been far and away the largest recipient of U.S. foreign aid (eclipsed for now by war aid to Ukraine).

On Monday, independent Sen. Angus King of Maine announced he’d no longer support aid to Israel “as long as there are starving children in Gaza due to the action or inaction of the Israeli government.” His statement began, “I cannot defend the indefensible.”

And Netanyahu’s war policies are indefensible, however justified Israel’s war against the genocidal Hamas was at its start. It is beyond painful and tragic to watch a nation born of the sympathy of a world horrified by the newsreel footage of human skeletons emerging from Nazi camps now bearing responsibility for the pictures coming from Gaza. The Israeli government itself stands accused of war crimes and genocide even by its own citizens, including some former leaders. Yet the prime minister has the gall to tell us that our eyes are lying: “There is no starvation in Gaza,” Netanyahu insisted on Monday.

That lie was so bald-faced that even the liar in chief, Netanyahu’s pal Donald Trump, called him out. Asked on Monday about Netanyahu’s denial, President Trump told reporters he’d seen the clips of starving Gaza children on TV. “That’s real starvation stuff,” he said. “I see it, and you can’t fake that.“

Not exactly how most people would express empathy and outrage, but we take what we can get. Trump also went on about how the United States would step up to create new food centers in Gaza, seemingly unaware that the United States already is involved, complicit actually, in the failed “humanitarian” effort that supplanted United Nations and independent humanitarian groups in Gaza and spawned the current crisis.

After Israel in March abandoned a ceasefire that Trump had taken credit for, it blocked all goods into Gaza for nearly three months to pressure Hamas to surrender. FYI, starvation as a weapon of warfare is a war crime. Instead of hundreds of aid centers run by experienced humanitarian organizations, Israel created a shadowy, misnamed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation with a handful of centers run by U.S. contractors and policed by Israeli troops. Since May, more than 100 Gazans have reportedly died of hunger, but 10 times as many have been shot dead, according to the U.N., by trigger-happy soldiers firing “warning shots” at the predictably overrun food sites, turning them into killing fields.

And lest we forget, in the West Bank Palestinians continue to be tormented and killed by militant Jewish settlers, backed by the Netanyahu government. U.N. data shows that violence against Palestinians is at a higher level than any time in two decades.

The suffering, and the transformation of Israel’s image from from David to Goliath, from righteous to wrathful, is in turn transforming U.S.-Israel politics, no doubt to Israel’s long-term detriment.

On Tuesday a new Gallup polling report was headlined “32% in U.S. Back Israel's Military Action in Gaza, a New Low.” That poll was conducted earlier in July, mostly before the torrent of heart-rending photos of malnourished babies. Americans’ reduced support for Israel’s actions in Gaza was driven by increased opposition among Democrats and independents. Republicans’ approval of Israel’s war is up, likely reflecting Trump’s support for Netanyahu — and the administration’s zeal to tar as an antisemite anyone or any institution critical of Israel’s government.

In February, amid the since-abandoned ceasefire, Gallup found just 46% support for Israel among Americans overall, the lowest level in its 25 years of tracking. Until 2022, both Republicans and Democrats sided with Israel over the Palestinian territories in their long-running dispute. Since then, Democrats have tipped in favor of the Palestinians, presumably reflecting disgust that was building before the war with Netanyahu’s long, antidemocratic and self-serving rule.

Similarly, the Chicago Council on Global Affairs reported in May on the growing partisan divide on U.S. support for Israel. It concluded: “a long-term shift in public opinion could lead to reduced U.S. support for Israel down the line.”

That polarization of support in the United States, Israel’s most longstanding and crucial ally, is Netanyahu’s legacy. It’s not a good one for the Jewish people, or for America.

What Does Hamas and the Palestinians Have to Lose?

In the Atlantic of July 31, 2025, Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib suggests that Hamas deliberately wants Gaza to starve.

While in practice, it is Israel that is blockading the entry of food and aid into Gaza, I can understand why Hamas itself might want the same objective.

For one, Hamas has already scored a major victory with its horrific attack of October 7, 2023. It may seem callous to propose that the carnage of October 7 has indeed yielded a victory for the perpetrator, but this is in many ways similar to the mass killings that have become folkore in US culture. The perpetrator gets to become a celebrity. All the millions of people around the world who hadn't heard of Palestine - except maybe the lies of the Zionists - now know what happened to Palestine over the past 80 years. 

It is unfortunate that it took such a barbaric action on the part of the Palestinian resistance to an illegal and equally barbaric Israeli occupation, but the net outcome has been, finally and at long last, a recognition of the plight of the indigenous Palestinian population which, over the past 80 years, has lost its land to foreign settlers who falsely claim that their god, Yahweh, gave them the land some 3,000 years ago, which for many reasonable people around the world is a garbage religious argument from the Bronze Age of humanity.

The October 7, 2023 attacks and the ensuing Jewish savagery against an innocent civilian population have exposed the 100-year-old lies, falsehoods, and distortions of history by ultra-religious Jewish barbarians, disguised as the "Zionist" movement, with which European colonial settlers decided to deprive the Palestinian nation of their land and their nationhood. Israel's brith is one of the most successful GREAT REPLACEMENT episodes of modern history, whereby a ramshackle amalgam of disparate peoples, united by a primitive religion itself based on a garbage parchment written in the deserts of Arabia by wandering stinking nomads, invade Palestine, dislodge by utter violence and barbarity the indigenous population into refugee camps, and replace historic Palestine with an artificial, alien, and brutal entity.

Second, after decades of torment, persecution, blocakdes, killings, expulsions and home demolitions, dehumanization and slow-simmering ethnic cleansing by the Zionists of the Palestinians, despair can lead people to extremes. Yes, as the UN Secretary General said the day after October 7, 2023 attack that "it did not happen in a vacuum". It's not like a few crazies of Hamas, who otherwise were living a fantastic life under a generous and civilized Jewish occupation, woke up one day and decided to just go and kill innocent Israelis. The October 7 attacks came on the heels of 80 years of direct barbarity and denial of the humanity and rights of the indigenous Palestinians who for 80 years were killed, raped, imprisoned, bombed, denied access to their homes and villages.... The list is too long of all the calamities that the Zionist settlers have inflicted on the Palestinians.

Therefore, and like inhabitants of ancient Phoenician cities like Tyre and Sidon in Lebanon who decided to commit collective suicide rather than submit to the invading Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians and others, it may make sense for the Palestinians of Gaza to commit collective suicide rather than submit themselves to an occupier who everyone knows has only one objective in mind - whether by brutal war or by slow simmering genocide - to anyway kill, expel, persecute, and ultimately exterminate entirely. Given the brutality of the Zionists with their uninterrupted supply of Western weapons, the Palestinians know they can't win this asymmetric war. 

Moreover, Israel never publicly articulates what it wants to do with the Palestinian people. It vilifies them, dehumanized them, rejects a Palestinian state, but it never says what plans it has for the 6 million Palestinians it controls. Which means that the Zionist rapists of Palestine do actually contemplate a future in which the Palestinians are absent. Which means, by extrapolation, that Israel does actually plan for a major ethnic cleansing in Palestine, some of which is outright extermination while the rest involves displacement.

For what are Israel's realistic options vis-a-vis the Palestinians?

1- Status quo: Maintaning the Palestinian population under brutal occupation while land theft and expulsions continue, slowly and inexorably depleting Palestine of any sense of nationhood, let alone statehood. This may take decades, but the Zionists had heretofore banked on this "slow" genocide of the Palestinians going unnoticed by the international community, which it has until October 7, 2023 which opened the floodgates of history, records, and truth and began debunking the Zionist lies and falsehoods.

2- One-state solution: Perhaps the most civilized of all solutions, in which Israelis and Palestinians live in one genuine multi-ethnic democracy. Hard to imagine, but why not? (Belgium, Lebanon, the US, the UK, India....). There virtually is no country on earth that is made up of just one ethnic or religious group. Nearly all countries are multi-diverse and have found ways to manage their diversity. Still, it is hard to imagine that the foreign ultra-religious Jewish Zionist barbarians from European stock would be so civilized to contemplate sharing Palestine with its native indigenous Palestinian population. Their criminal Yahweh's promise in his garbage torah did not say "Thou Shalt Share the Promised Land" with the natives. He in fact egged the nomadic Jews to kill every man, woman, child and beast of Palestinian Canaan. Could Yahweh have evolved into a decent civilized god by now? It doesn't seem to be the case, because his modern-day "Jews" don't seem to listen to civility and humanity. They want all the land and without any non-Jew in it. Some 3,000 years after Yahweh, the English colonial crook Lord Balfour did ask the prospective Jewish European rapists of Palestine to whom he was gifting Palestine to be civilized, "it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine". Prejudice? What prejudice? Starvation, mass killings, and sheer barbarity are not "prejudice" will argue criminals like Netanyahu, Smotrich and Ben-Gvir.

3- One-time massive event of ethnic cleansing, genocide and displacement to void Palestine of its indigenous people, which seems to be the option currently pursued by the ultra-religious Israeli barbarians. A terrible legacy for the Zionists, themselves once victims of genocide, to bear.

Yes, as The Atlantic title below headlines, Hamas wants Gaza to starve because no other dignified option besides suicide has so far been offered by the world to the Palestinian tragedy. They have nothing left to lose. For 80 years the Palestinians have first been evicted from their ancestral villages, towns and cities, then from refugee camp to refugee camp. 80% of Gaza's population is made up of refugees expelled from villages, towns and cities that once were Palestinian and are now Israeli. Better death, the Palestinians seem to be telling the world, than more errance into further refugee camps.

And if suicide is their only option, the Palestinians might as well commit suicide à la Samson. Hence October 7, 2023.

Death and annihilation are right now the Palestinians' only, best, and ironically, most "viable", option, just as it is the most sublime dream for the Zionists.

Hamas Wants Gaza to Starve
Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib
Thu, July 31, 2025

This week, the world seems to be finally paying attention to the magnitude of the suffering in Gaza. The futile policies pursued by the Israeli government—prodded by the far-right cabinet ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben-Gvir—have reduced the supply of humanitarian aid, food, and supplies in Gaza. Israel has unnecessarily reengineered the distribution of aid, failing to achieve its goal of separating the civilian population from Hamas while further constricting its supply. And for these decisions, it has attracted the justified condemnation of the international community.

Despite the surge of hundreds of trucks into Gaza over the past four days, very few supplies have made it into warehouses to be distributed to the population. Aid shipments are being seized by a combination of desperate civilians, lawless gangs, clan-affiliated thugs, and merchants of death. Chaos and apocalyptic scenery are the norm, not the exception. There is no denying the reality of the widespread malnutrition and hunger in the Gaza Strip.

In recent days, I’ve spoken with dozens of Gazans who are furious about what is unfolding around them. They are angry, one told me, at the “hordes of selfish people who are attacking aid convoys to steal and collect aid in a horrific manner without caring for Gazans who chose not to participate in these humiliating and demeaning displays of inhumanity, no matter the level of hunger.” But their anger is directed primarily at Hamas, which they hold responsible for putting the people of Gaza in this position, and for its continued refusal to end the war that it started. “Hitler fought in his bunker until he killed himself in World War II in the Battle of Berlin,” another person said, complaining that Hamas is hunkered down in its tunnels, willing to see Gaza destroyed to the very last child.

Hamas actually wants a famine in Gaza. Producing mass death from hunger is the group’s final play, its last hope for ending the war in a way that advances its goals. Hamas has benefited from Israel’s decision to use food as a lever against the terror group, because the catastrophic conditions for civilians have generated an international outcry, which is worsening Israel’s global standing and forcing it to reverse course.

Online supporters of the terror group have consistently attacked any efforts to alleviate the crisis. In posts and videos, they have dismissed efforts to send in food by convoys of trucks from Egypt and Jordan, pointing to the chaotic scenes as desperate Gazans scramble for aid. They have likewise attacked the airdrops that are now under way and called for them to be stopped immediately.

Hamas’s evident desire to extend and deepen the crisis of hunger helps explain the recent breakdown of cease-fire negotiations, even as Gazans are needlessly dying. The group’s intransigence led both Israel and Trump’s envoy, Steve Witkoff, to walk away from the talks. If the hunger crisis and humanitarian issues are addressed, Hamas can no longer use the suffering of Gazans to generate an international outcry or use the resultant leverage to end the war on its own terms.

But the two-state-solution conference convened by France and Saudi Arabia at the United Nations shows the way forward. In a remarkable statement, endorsed by the European Union and the Arab League, the participants condemned the October 7 attacks and the taking of hostages, and declared that “Hamas must end its rule in Gaza and hand over its weapons to the Palestinian Authority.” The conference envisions the end of hostilities, the establishment of an international mission in Gaza, and the ultimate return of the Palestinian Authority to govern the Strip.

Many Arab states have been reluctant to call out Hamas publicly, even though they do so privately on a regular basis, for fear of upsetting their own populations. But now they have recognized the importance of openly and transparently calling for Hamas to give up control of Gaza and disarm. Both Israel and the international community should capitalize on this shift, to isolate the terrorist organization and give hope for a better trajectory for Gaza’s future.

If Hamas believes that the suffering of Gazans bolsters its cause, Israeli decision makers should take that to heart. They should abandon their misguided and inhumane policies and cease their efforts to pressure the population as a means of pressuring the terror group. The best way to undermine Hamas’s position is to instead flood Gaza with food, and to alleviate the suffering of its people.

Recognizing Palestine is no Hamas Reward. Netanyahu has Already Rewarded Hamas

During decades of resistance against a vicious colonial invader, every Palestinian attempt to get recognition was scuttled by the colonial Israeli power, be it Labor or Likud.

From a 1960s style revolutionary secular resistance, through a 1970s switch to a political approach (Arafat held both a gun and an olive branch in 1974 at the UN), to the 1980s recognition of the PLO as the representative of the stateless Palestinian people, and to the 1990s formal self-governing Palestinian Authority, the Palestinians were labeled as terrorists who do not deserve to have their own state over their own raped and confiscated land. No other movement of resistance to colonial occupation has ever been so vilified by the colonial occupier, as have the Palestinians by their Zionist occupiers.

After all these attempts, which the Zionists in Israel made sure they failed by sheer violence and repression, including the continued land theft and uprooting, the home confiscations and demolitions, the forced de-Palestinization and enforced Judaization of Jerusalem, the killings, and the illegal building of foreign settlements on stolen land.... After decades of Israel violating every human rights protocol, UN treaty and UNSC resolutions, laws of occupation, laws of war.... radical Islamism became the Palestinians' last resort, hence Hamas. 

If anyone has rewarded Hamas it is war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu himself. Netanyahu created Hamas as a way to undermine the Palestinian Authority and keep the Palestinians divided and weak. Netanyahu made sure that Qatar kept funding Hamas by wiring money to the Israeli government who then transferred it to Hamas. With that money, and despite the blockade Netanyahu supposedly imposed on Gaza, weapons and money kept flowing into Gaza. Netanyahu propped up Hamas while he hollered to the world about Hamas being a terrorist organization, just as he and his predecessors labeled Arafat a terrorist before making peace, a fake one for sure, with him.

At the same time, Netanyahu did everything to weaken the Palestinian Authority, instead of helping it keep its commitments under Oslo, while he himself violated every provision of the Oslo Accords. 

Israel and Netanyahu used the same approach with the Iranian militia of Hezbollah in Lebanon. When the Iranian Islamic Republic was born in 1979, it created Hezbollah in Lebanon in 1981-1982. As soon as it was up and running, (with the help of the Assad regime then occupying Lebanon in collusion with the US because Assad maintained peace along his Israeli-occupied and annexed Golan Heights), Hezbollah's first "exploit" was to bomb the US Marines Headquarters in Beirut in October 1983, killing 243 US Marines.

What did the jackass Ronald Reagan do? Not wanting to upset the Saudis and the other oily Arabs, he fled the scene with his 243 body bags. Had the Americans, the British, the French and the Italians of the Multinational Force stayed and fought the newborn Hezbollah and Syria, with the backing of everyone else in Beirut - the invading Israeli army, the Lebanese army and the Christian militias - Hezbollah wouldn't even exist today. But somehow, at every juncture of this long horrific trajectory since the creation of Israel, it and the West seemed to want to keep the region's problems alive instead of solving them. Protecting and nurturing hostile terrorist forces operating in the region is a rich source of pretexts for intervention, land theft and expansion.

Israel did it again when it withdrew from South Lebanon in 2000, handing the Lebanese South not to the Lebanese government forces, but to Israel's arch-enemy Hezbollah. These days, the Israelis and the Americans are pushing the Lebanese government forces to disarm Hezbollah which is a sure recipe for for a civil war. They had more than 4 decades and many many opportunities to do something, but they didn't. They allowed Hezbollah to grow and prosper, letting things smolder from one war to another, one terrorist attack to another, one invasion to another until the fruit was ripe. And now they are harvesting what a colonial enterprise always wants: More land. 

Israel and Netanyahu in particular have made sure that Hamas and Hezbollah succeed because it gave Israel the pretext for doing what it is doing today: Annexing Gaza and the West Bank from Palestine, annexing the Golan from Syria, and the upcoming invasion and annexation of South Lebanon.

Could the Israelis have gotten so far in expanding their Nazzi-inspired lebensraum without the "assistance" of Hamas, Hezbollah and the Assad regime, all of whom they groomed and nurtured for decades? Having used Assad, the Israelis have now ditched him. Having used Hamas, they now are trying to annihilate it. And having used and abused Hezbollah, they are forcing the Lebanese into a raging fire to get rid of it. Why? Because they have reached their ultimate goals: stealing land from their neighbors, and taming and domesticating the long-ago hostile, but always stupid, Arab regimes, now Israel's best friends.

Canada will recognize a Palestinian state in September in latest push against Israel's Gaza policies
ROB GILLIES
Updated Thu, July 31, 2025



Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney speaks with media during a news conference in Ottawa, Ontario, Wednesday, July 30, 2025. (Adrian Wyld/The Canadian Press via AP)

TORONTO (AP) — Canada will recognize a Palestinian state in September, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced on Wednesday, the latest in a series of symbolic announcements that are part of a broader global shift against Israel's policies in Gaza.

Carney convened a Cabinet meeting to discuss the situation in the battered Palestinian territory. He said it came after he discussed the crisis with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer who announced a similar move on Tuesday.

Leaders are under mounting pressure over the issue as scenes of hunger in Gaza have horrified so many across the world. “The level of human suffering in Gaza is intolerable,” Carney said.

“Canada intends to recognize the State of Palestine at the 80th Session of the United Nations General Assembly in September 2025," Carney said — a move that he said was predicated on the Palestinian Authority “holding general elections in 2026 in which Hamas can play no part, and to demilitarize the Palestinian state.”

Carney said he's “not in any way or shape minimizing that scale of that task,” though he added it was clearly "not a possibility in the near term.”

"Much has to happen before a democratic viable state is established,” he said.

A mounting push

Pressure to formally recognize Palestinian statehood has increased since French President Emmanuel Macron announced last week that his country will become the first major Western power to recognize a Palestinian state in September. Carney said he spoke to Macron on Wednesday.

On Tuesday, Starmer said Britain would recognize a state of Palestine before the U.N. General Assembly in September, “unless the Israeli government takes substantive steps to end the appalling situation in Gaza, agree to a ceasefire and commit to a long-term, sustainable peace, reviving the prospect of a two-state solution."

Carney said Canada is working with other states "to preserve the possibility of a two-state solution, to not allow the facts on the ground, deaths on the ground, the settlements on the ground, the expropriations on the ground, to get to such an extent that this is not possible.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government rejects a two-state solution on nationalistic and security grounds ...
 

[Iznogood: But Israel never articulates an alternative, because it has none. The only other options besides two-states are:
1- The status quo: Maintaning the Palestinian population under a brutal occupation while land theft and expusions continue, slowly and inexorably depleting Palestine of any sense of nationhood, let alone statehood.
2- A one-state solution: in which Israelis and Palestinians live in one genuine multi-ethnic democracy. Inconceivable. 
3- A one-time massive event of ethnic cleansing, genocide and displacement to void Palestine of its indigenous people, which seems to be the option currently pursued by the ultra-religious Israeli barbarians.]

A symbolic gesture

As with France and the United Kingdom, Canadian recognition would be largely symbolic, but it’s part of a push by countries against Israel and could increase diplomatic pressure for an end to the conflict.

More than 140 countries recognize a Palestinian state, including a dozen in Europe. Macron’s announcement last week made France the first Group of Seven country — and the largest in Europe — to say it would take that step.

Canada has long supported the idea of an independent Palestinian state existing alongside Israel, but has said recognition should come as part of a negotiated two-state solution to the conflict.

Iddo Moed, Israel's ambassador to Canada, told The Associated Press following Carney's announcement that Canada is a “dear friend but at the moment it is an estranged friend” because it "stopped putting itself in Israel’s shoes.”

Unabating war and suffering

Hamas started the war with its attack on southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, in which militants killed around 1,200 people and abducted 251 others. They still hold 50 hostages, including around 20 believed to be alive and held in Gaza. Most of the rest of the hostages were released in ceasefires or other deals.

Israel’s retaliatory offensive has killed more than 60,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry, which doesn’t distinguish between militants and civilians and operates under the Hamas government. The U.N. and other international organizations see it as the most reliable source of data on casualties.

A total of 89 children have died of malnutrition since the war began in Gaza. Israel denies there is any starvation in Gaza, rejecting accounts to the contrary from witnesses, U.N. agencies and aid groups, and says the focus on hunger undermines ceasefire efforts.

The Israeli ambassador blamed Hamas for the length of the nearly two-year war, saying that "in Gaza we’ve come across the worst possible network of terrorist infrastructure that exists any where around the world.

“We need this to end for the sake of all of us because we will remain there and the Palestinians will remain there," Moed also said. “All of us understand that.”

A White House official said President Donald Trump’s position on Palestinian statehood would not change and that he is instead focused on providing food aid in Gaza. The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss Trump's stand.

“As the President stated, he would be rewarding Hamas if he recognizes a Palestinian state, and he doesn’t think they should be rewarded,” the official said.

The Netherlands Kicks Israeli Officials out for Genocide

The Dutch government has slapped a "non  grata" label on two high-ranking Israeli officials over the genocide the Zionists are perpetrated against the indigenous Palestinian population and their land theft.  The government also accused Zionist Israel of meddling in internal Dutch affairs and trying to influence the Dutch population with fake information.

The National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich are both extremist terrorist Zionists advocating and implementing violent attacks against the indigenous Palestinian population with the objective of expelling them and replacing them with foreigh histoile Jewish terrorist settlers. The Netherlands, home of the charlatan tourist story of Ann Frank, are now "undesirable aliens" in the country's Schengen information system and barred from the country. For those who don't know, Ann Frank is a young Jewish girl who hid in the home of a Dutch family in Amsterdam in fear of the Nazi Germans during WWII. Her "ordeal", as it were, consisted in being served, fed and clothed, and otherwise lived a very comfortable life before the end of the war when she was caught and deported to a concentration camp. Her "ordeal" pales in comparison with young girls her age are going through right now in Palestine where Zionists are copy-pasting the Nazi German methods in persecuting the Palestinian owners of the land whom they deem "subhuman".   

After putting up with the nagging and the pretense of eternal victimhood by Zionists and their colonial ambitions, the Dutch have finally lifted the guilt of the Holocaust of their backs and are confronting the fascism, colonialism, racism and expansionism of the Zionists. The last straw came from the thousands of Palestinians starving to death in Gaza and losing their homes and villages in the West Bank, all programmed and implemented by the Zionist state of Israel which has long claimed to be a victim of the Nazis. Yet, all its actions over the past few decades have been a catalog of atrocities, racism, discrimination, dehumanization of the Palestinian population, ghettooization of Palestinian territories, extreme violence and terror, uprooting of olive groves, demolition of homes and expulsion of people from their millennial homeland. The Zionists have reduced the millions of indigenous Palestinians and their nation to a bunch of terrorists, and transformed the magnificient nation of Palestine into a crucible of violence and man-made inhumanity. 

Dutch Foreign Minister Caspar Veldkamp has qualified the actions of the Zionist government of Netanyahu against Palestinians as "unbearable and indefensible" in a letter on Monday to parliament. 

"The decision is based on their repeated incitement of settler violence against Palestinians, calls for illegal settlement expansion and advocacy for ethnic cleansing in Gaza," Veldkamp wrote.

Veldkamp's letter further stated the Netherlands will commit more than $5 million in humanitarian aid to Gaza spread out between the Red Cross and the U.N.'s Office for Support Services.

The MInister also said that restrictions on weaponry exports to Israel are now almost certian, stating that it is "virtually impossible" for future export licenses to the Zionist regime under current conditions to be approved by the government.

On Monday, Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof said the Netherlands will push for "further European measures, for example, in the realm of trade". Naturally, the ever savvy deception artists in Israel's government, including President Isaac Herzog reacted on X, saying "HUGE mistake if the EU takes such steps".

According to the Palestinian Health Ministry, nearly 60,000 people as of July 28 have been killed by Israeli settler soldiers, among whom are over 17,000 children and over 145,000 injured. A terrorist can be a militant who blows himself up in the middle of a crowd, but a terrorist can also be piloting an American-made F-35 and dropping 2,000-lb bombs on a crowd of starving children sheltered in a school or a hospital. The former is the image Zionists have presented of Palestinian freedom fighters trying to rescue their country from a savage foreign colonial invader, while the latter is what Israeli soldiers do every minute of every day in Palestine. Whether the killer looks his victims in the eye or whether he shuts his eyes and kills his victims with a bomb from a plane is not the criterion for "terrorism". 

Israel's versions of events is biased. The illegal Israeli occupation regime has denied international journalists from entering Palestine, and yet it expects people to believe its narrative. But the truth always comes out no matter how much the criminal tries to hide it. After tergiversating for years and decades in the face of the inhuman blockade imposed by Israel on the Palestinians, there finally is growing anger in Europe where governments and people are taking stock of the Zionist lies and propaganda and realizing they were being taken for fools by their former Holocaust victims.

The Dutch state's counterterrorism agency has also designated Israel as a foreign security threat alongside Russia, Turkey and Iran, citing Israeli and Zionist attempts to influence Dutch society via political or other means. 

The Dutch government is also outraged by what it described as the Israeli government's "unusual" and "undesirable" step. It accuses Israel's Ministry of Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism of bypassing government officials and directly issuing a report to Dutch journalists and politicians about the November 2024's football match between Israel's Maccabi Tel Aviv and the Amsterdam-based Ajax teams. Israeli supporters turned into a violent mob shouting racist slogans and harassing Ajax supporters and Dutch citizens protesting the genocide in Gaza.

European and western countries, with the obvious exception of the Zionist slave country of the United States, have nearly all declared their intentions to recognize a Palestinian state. For decades, these countries repeated the mantra that a Palestinian state must only be recognized if it is established by negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians. But as has become clear by now, the Israelis reject a Palestinian state. They signed the Oslo Accords in 1993, but proceeded to continue persecuting and dehumanizing the Palestinians, occupying their lands, destroying their villages and building illegal Jewish settlements. In recent years, the Zionist settlers no longer even try to mask their criminality: Attacks by Jewish settlers against Palestinian villages is a daily occurrence, including murders, arson, raids, killing of sheep herds and uprooting olive trees, preventing Palestinian villagers from accessing their lands....

 

The West is finally recognizing that their former Holocaust victims, the Zionists, have become the Nazis of our time, behaving exactly like their former tormentors and inflicting enduring unforgivable pain. The West is finally recognizing that Israel's people, both the so-called "moderates" and "extremists", are all Zionists with colonial ambitions and have no interest whatsoever in peace with the indigenous Palestinians. They both have the same objective in mind: To expel the native Palestinians from their ancestral land, and turn the latter into the oxymoronic "Democracy-for-Jews-only" state. 

 

This is not how you hope for peace with your neighbors and for people around the world to have respect for you. With its insane racism, how can Israel ever hope tolive in peace with its neighbors? 

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun Resigned to Major Israeli Operation

It's not his fault. The "unbiased" American "mediators" have left him with only two options, and he has two weeks to make up his mind.

Either he triggers a civil war between the various Lebanese communities over Hezbollah's weapons, in the hope that Hezbollah won't win it, or

Israel will wage yet another war against Lebanon and occupy and potentially annex the southern part of the country south of the Litani River.

If Aoun wages a civil war pitting his vulnerable and badly equipped army against Hezbollah, he might not only lose the war but the entire country, in which case Israel (and Sunni-ruled Syria too) might not be too unhappy to intervene and steal land from the Greater Lebanon entity. 

Israel in both cases stands to annex south Lebanon.

So, Mr. Aoun's inaction is understandable, but it has the consequence of forcing the default option of a major Israeli attack, assault, and invasion. No one can later blame Aoun. He did nothing and everyone knows that "nothing" was his only option. He should already be thanking Trump, Tom Barrack, and all the cudgel-wielding goodwill ambassadors. 

With this situation, Donald Trump is laying the ground for another expansion of Zionist Israel's lebensraum into the Lebanese Upper Galilee. Together with the Zionist Anschluss of the Golan, the Zionist Reich is healthy and growing, with plans for tourist resorts in Palestinian Gaza, the Syrian Golan and the Phoenician-Lebanese city of Tyre.

IDF to continue attacking Hezbollah until it disarms, even if leads to another war
YONAH JEREMY BOB
Tue, July 29, 2025

Since the November 2024 ceasefire, the IDF has detected around 456 new threats and attacked Hezbollah over 500 times.

The IDF has said that it will continue regular attacks on Hezbollah – despite the November 2024 ceasefire – until it disarms, even if this leads to another war.

A significant part of this calculation is the ongoing substantial harm that the IDF has caused to Hezbollah’s ability to threaten Israel to date.

If pre-war Hezbollah had around 150,000 rockets and tens of thousands of launchers for firing rockets, as of now, the number of launchers is down to a couple of thousand, with the total number of rockets down between 70-80%.

In practical terms, the implications are staggering given that this means that if pre-war Hezbollah could easily fire around 1,500 rockets at a time, now the Lebanese terror group can only fire some dozens at a time.

Hezbollah also has lost virtually all of its multiple rocket launching platforms.


This completely changes how Hezbollah operates, and limits its options for coordinated attacks, since it only has individual rocket launchers, which makes each rocket launch a strenuous and exposed effort.

Hezbollah retains a small number of long-range precision rockets, but would struggle to fire them given that the areas where it would need to move them to in order to fire could leave them exposed to IDF attacks, and many of these areas have already been attacked in the past.

Hezbollah’s loss of Syria for smuggling weapons has hit the group hard in any rearming efforts.

The new Syrian Sunni regime is blocking the vast majority of Iran's weapons smuggling efforts from Syria to Hezbollah on its own initiative and without any Israeli assistance as part of its opposition to the spread of Shiite influence.

The IDF has attacked some cross-border positions between Syria and Lebanon as many as five times to determine whether they still represent a smuggling threat.

IDF sources expressed some hope that Lebanon might eventually get Hezbollah to disarm, and are confident for now that Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem is heavily deterred and intimidated from launching a rocket attack on Israel.

On the other hand, IDF sources said Iran continues to stream around one billion dollars into Hezbollah to prop it up, whereas the West is only sending Lebanon up to $250 million.

This disparity could keep Hezbollah overall in power even if it has lost some of its standing.

Also, the military said it has attacked Hezbollah over 500 times since the November 2024 ceasefire.

Some 230 of the attacks were killing Hezbollah terrorists, 90 were attacks on rocket launchers, 20 were attacks on Hezbollah bases or outposts, 40 were attacks on weapons storage areas, and three were attacks on Hezbollah’s special forces Radwan training camps.

These numbers, added to the Hezbollah terrorists killed before the Israel-Lebanon ceasefire, mean that 4,000-5,000 operatives are dead and around 9,000 are wounded badly enough to be permanently out of fighting.

Hezbollah manpower, munitions, threat to Israel significantly reduced since before war

The IDF said that this meant over half of Hezbollah’s standing army of 25,000 is out of service.

Before the war, Hezbollah was also said to have tens of thousands more reservist fighters, but IDF sources estimate that only 10% of them are still active now.

This is due to fear of being killed, or their commanders being killed, leaving no one really in touch with them, or a lack of weapons and arms.

Also, the Radwan forces are down to 2,500-3,000 from their pre-war 6,000 numbers.

They have also been reassigned to internal security issues, given how much smaller Hezbollah’s forces are across the board, as opposed to being focused on potential attacks.

Further, the IDF has said that, at least for now, there is no Hezbollah invasion threat, given how far they are being kept from the border.

This does not mean that a small group of Hezbollah fighters could not surprise Israel in one or two spots.

But the scenario of 6,000 Radwan invaders striking Israel all over the north simultaneously is not and will not be a threat for some time to come.

The IDF is complimentary to the US on handling the dispute mechanism for resolving Hezbollah violations of the ceasefire, as opposed to UNIFIL pre-war.

The IDF has submitted 1,263 violations. Of these, around 456 were new threats, many of which the IDF in the end dealt with, and 666 were passed on to the Lebanese army, which dealt with 546 of them, or 82%, properly.

This is a high percentage of success, and the IDF credits the US for helping the Lebanese army follow through against Hezbollah.

At the same time, the IDF still acts whenever needed, and some violations, which have multiple aspects to them, are dealt with by a mix of the IDF, the mechanism, and the Lebanese army.

Genocidal Israelis Show Anti-Black African Racism in Dealing with Protesters

Like their German Nazi progenitors, Zionists have a hierarchy of "acceptable" versus "unacceptable" enemies. While white-skinned protesters like Greta Thunberg are treated with moderate respect, Black African protester Chris Small is treated like an animal.

I think they are trying to please Trump and his MAGA white supremacists.

Israel Detains, Chokes, and Beats Up [Black African] Amazon Union Leader Chris Smalls
Malcolm Ferguson
Tue, July 29, 2025 



On Saturday night, the Israeli Defense Forces surrounded, beat, and choked American labor leader Chris Smalls as they unlawfully boarded the Handala, the most recent aid ship trying to reach Gaza as part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition. Smalls was the only Black person on the flotilla and was punished much more severely than any of the other 20 members detained.

“When he reached the Israeli prison, U.S. human rights defender Chris Smalls was physically assaulted by seven uniformed individuals,” the Freedom Flotilla Coalition announced Tuesday morning. “They choked him and kicked him in the legs, leaving visible signs of violence on his neck and back. When his lawyer met with him, Chris was surrounded by six members of Israel’s special police unit. This level of force was not used against other abducted activists. We condemn this violence against Chris and demand accountability for the assault and discriminatory treatment he faced.”

“Pretty hard to believe that the particularly heinous and brutal treatment Christian Smalls was subjected to by Israeli authorities was not a function of racism given it was not inflicted on other Handala detainees,” University of New Brunswick professor Nathan Kalman-Lamb wrote on Bluesky. “And the US media dgaf.”

Smalls entered the public eye in 2022 after successfully founding a labor union at a Staten Island Amazon factory, garnering national praise and even a White House invitation from President Biden. Now he remains beaten and battered in IDF custody.

The IDF targeting the one Black man on the aid ship is sadly unsurprising, as is the lack of uproar from U.S. politicians and large media outlets. Yet another U.S. citizen assaulted and detained by the IDF, yet not a peep from either side of the aisle because Smalls is a Black American leftist who was standing up to Israel’s campaign of mass starvation and trying to deliver baby food and flour to suffering Palestinians in Gaza.

“I’m thinking of Chris Smalls. And about how, because he’s Black, no Greta Thunberg, no celebrity, no darling of the liberal class, he might not make it out alive,” author Camonghne Felix wrote on X. “Blackness, when vulnerable and on its knees, is a white supremacist fantasy.”

While smaller unions have spoken up to condemn Smalls’s arrest, Teamsters—which worked with Smalls on the Amazon Labor Union—has yet to make a statement on his violent detainment, failing spectacularly to meet the moment.

While Smalls and other flotilla members remain in IDF custody, the coalition plans to send another aid ship very soon, yet another direct challenge to the Israeli government.

“We are calling on others around the world, definitely our countries, to live up to their obligation of enforcing international law, of protecting human rights, but also other institutions that are founded to do the same,” said Huwaida Arraf, a Palestinian American attorney and Handala member who was released from IDF custody due to her Israeli citizenship. “We should not be waiting for Israel to give permission for food or other humanitarian aid to enter … we need to be breaking, challenging and breaking the blockade.”

“And our governments not only have not been doing anything about it … the U.S. government did not make contact with any of the seven American citizens on board, but the [others], like France, Spain, Italy, contacted their citizens on board and told them that they are ready to provide consular services when Israel kidnaps us, which we found to be completely obnoxious,” she added. “They were legitimizing Israeli piracy on the high seas. And that is unacceptable to us. And that is the kind of impunity that our governments, all governments, really, have been allowing Israel to just violate international law.”

Genocide-Perpetrating Israeli Citizens Personae "Non-Grata" Around the World

Israeli citizens are finding it increasingly difficult to travel around the world because the stench of genocide accompanies them.

Many Israelis are dual citizens, having emigrated from their former homelands to become tourist-settlers in the Jewish Dysneyland called Israel. And so, many resort to using the passports of their old home countries instead of the Israeli passport, just to hide and avoid having to face up to the animosity of people around the world.

Statistics and polls show that a majority of Israelis support the genocide in Gaza and the ongoing ethnic cleansing in the West Bank. Therefore, they assume the consequences of their government's atrocious actions against the indigenous Palestinian population.

As they contemplate visiting other countries, perhaps an organized tour down Genocide Alley in occupied, brutalized Gaza, all sponsored by the Israeli Death Forces (IDF), would be more suited for their relaxing but educational vacations. They can watch starving Palestinian children and thousands of displaced refugees looking for food, and take a trip around all the ruins of bombed out schools and hospitals for a first-hand experience. 

Then, as the sensitive "Westerners living in the East" that they are, they can put it all down in a book or a film that could compete in major events, like Ari Folman's "Waltz with Bashir" which was deemed to be one of the worst racist movies ever made, depicting Lebanese and Palestinians as subhuman animals while their Israeli invaders and tormentors were portrayed as the civilizing force. Colonial white man's mission at its best!

Anti-war demonstrators protest the arrival of an Israeli cruise ship on the Greek island of Crete
ELENA BECATOROS
Tue, July 29, 2025

ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Demonstrators calling for an end to the war in Gaza protested the arrival of an Israeli cruise ship on another Greek island Tuesday – the third such protest on Greek islands in the last week.

Protesters on the southern Greek island of Crete unfurled a huge Palestinian flag at the port of Agios Nikolaos and shouted “Free, free Palestine” as the tourists on board the Crown Iris disembarked and left on buses for their tours of the island, according to images shown on local media outlets.

Riot police kept the crowd away from the pier where the cruise ship was docked, while scuffles broke out between demonstrators and police. Local media reported that officers used pepper spray at one point to keep the crowd back.

Four people were detained, local media said. Video showed police leading one man away, his arms cuffed behind his back, as he shouted “Free, free Palestine.”

Similar scenes unfolded the previous day when the Crown Iris docked in a port on the eastern Greek island of Rhodes, where clashes broke out between riot police and demonstrators calling for an end to the war in Gaza. There also, the cruise ship’s passengers disembarked for tours of the island, and no violence was reported.

Anti-war protesters on Greece’s Cycladic island of Syros were the first to hold a demonstration against the docking of the Crown Iris, on July 22. The crowd of about 150 people chanted slogans and carried banners that read “Stop the Genocide” and “No a/c in hell” — a reference to the conditions Palestinians face in the Gaza Strip.

On that occasion, the ship’s roughly 1,700 passengers didn't disembark and the ship left the island earlier than planned, with the company operating the trip, Israel’s Mano Cruise, saying it had “decided in light of the situation in the city of Syros to now sail to another tourist destination.”

Last week's incident had triggered a phone call by Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar to Greek counterpart George Gerapetritis.

Greece is a popular tourist destination for Israelis on package tours and traveling independently, particularly in the summer months, and there are several flights per day between Tel Aviv and Athens, as well as from Israeli airports directly to Greek islands.

Arkansas Evangelical Conservative US Ambassador to Israel - Mike Huckabee - ...

... is a dimwit ignorant hillbilly whose only learning is from the garbage he reads in the torah-old testament. This descendant of the worst slave owners in American history is fundamentally a criminal idiot, just as we would judge the Koran literalists of the Afghan Taliban and the Iranian Mullahs to be criminal idiots.

Like most Americans who are ignorant of history and reject objectivity and science, preferring the stinking Bronze Age compost of religious texts, Huckabee thinks he is defending the extremist Zionist murderers in Palestine by comparing Hamas to the Nazi Germans. He has a problem of magnitude and of situational proportions. He even considers that Nazis were less "malicious" than Hamas, perhaps a Freudian leak from his white supremacist Nazi-loving racist antisemitic culture in Arkansas. 

Huckabee really doesn't give a damn about the Jewish people. He in fact, deep down, hates them because they did not accept his Jesus as the Messiah and worse yet, they killed said Jesus on the cross. But he likes the Jews only insofar as they are a stepping stone to his sick fantasy of end-of-world armageddon that was shoved down his brain as he grew up surrounded by pigs, stills, and incestuous moonshining relatives in the Arakansas boonies. 

Once his Jesus sees that all Jews have been gathered in Palestine, without any Palestinian left there of course (for Jesus himself was a rabid Jewish supremacist), he will return from his black hole somewhere in the universe, at which point Huckabee's much beloved Jewish friends would have to covert to Christians or else be put to the sword by none else than Huckabee and his Christian soldiers. Jews would have no argument to make: Just like the catholic Church did to them during the Spanish Inquisition: Either you convert or you die. I  wonder if Jews and Israelis really understand this creep's motivations for being their friend.

Yes, Hamas has committed atrocities against innocent civilians on October 7. But so did dozens of liberation-against-colonial-occupation resistance movements across history. Vietnam, Algeria, and many others come to mind. They all committed atrocities against their occupiers who, like the Zionists, called them terrorists. Skimming off the surface of the main problem - foreign occupation and land theft - does not solve the problem; it exacerbates it and prolongs it needlessly.

Hamas is no Nazi Germany. The latter was a massive giant in economy, the military, industry, science... Despite all it did, Hamas remains a raggedy bunch of hoodlums justifying, unfortunately justifiably, their actions as indigenous resistance against foreign  occupation. Not to mention that Netanyahu himself enabled Hamas by allowing its funding from Qatar for decades as a way to drive a wedge between the moderate Palestinian Authority and radical Hamas. The Gaza genocide has long been planned by the Zionists; they just needed the pretext.

The bottom line is that Huckabee is sold out to the Zionists. Nothing will ever change his mind. Not the images of starving children, not the Zionist-bombed out Christian Church in Gaza, not the violent attack by his Jewish extermist settlers against the only Christian village left in Palestine. The fact that his mindset is still in 19th-century eugenics, the racist KKK, the slavery culture, the biblical bullshit ... says much about his posture on Palestine.

As an ultra-religious evangelical moron who takes the torah literally, he believes that Jews have to kill every indigenous Palestinian and steal all of Palestinian land, in preparation for the return of Jesus and the end of times. In Huckabee's destitute mind, Jesus will not return to earth and usher the final judgment unless all of Palestine is ruled by Jews. And he, the inbred rube from the backwoods of Arakansas believes that Jesus has him in mind as the usher of Armageddon.

Therefore, the Arkansas moron seeks to void Palestine of its indigenous people by any means necessary: Killing, expulsions, home and village demolitions, starvation, bombing.... one huge campaign of extermination against an innocent people who have seen themselves over four generations move from one refugee camp to another, just to make place for foreigners who falsely claim to descend from the biblical Hebrews.

Please think about it using your reason. This whole tragedy is based on made-up stories from the Bronze Age of humanity, written on goat skins by stinking nomads in the Arabian desert. And this applies to all three monotheistic cults: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. 

Christianity was a political resistance against Roman occupation camouflaged under the Jewish religion (just as Hamas is resistance against Jewish occupation camouflaged under Islamic religion).

Islam in turn was a reaction to Christianity's rising "polytheism" in Rome and Constantinople by deeply Hebraic Arabs who later became known as Muslims. All the "supernatural" crap in these mythologies is a veneer for atrocious hatreds and warmongering between desert tribes and clans and foreign conquerors. No one with a bit of respect for their self-dignity as humans would believe all the religious stories they are made to grow up with. 

You're adults now. You stopped believing in Santa Claus long time ago. Time to stop believing in the fairy tales for adults known as the torah, old testament, new testament, gospels, talmud, epistles, koran, hadith.... All are pathetic human fabrications to find meaning and exercise control, when there is no meaning to be found in texts written by ignorant people thousands of years ago. Which leaves control as the only motive for all the religious junk. 

Wake up, people.

Mike Huckabee Makes Unbelievable Nazi Analogy on Recognizing Palestine
Robert McCoy
Tue, July 29, 2025


[The Arkansas Hillbilly biblical prophet whom Yahweh has chosen to usher the end-of-times Armageddon. Notice his fancy watch and the huge golden ring, most likely gifted by the Zionists for his services to their colonial mission in Palestine]

As the horrors induced by Israel in Gaza elicit increasing international outcry, French President Emmanual Macron announced last week that France will recognize the state of Palestine. The U.K. on Tuesday decided it will also recognize Palestinian statehood, unless Israel takes certain steps to improve conditions in Gaza.

France’s decision has been criticized by U.S. officials. But it’s what international law demands, said United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres on Monday: “Statehood for the Palestinians is a right, not a reward.”

U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee has a more hysterical take.

Huckabee told Fox News Tuesday that the “very foolish” move would embolden Hamas (an extremely arguable assumption) and therefore “be like letting the Nazis have a victory after World War II.”

The former Arkansas governor and Fox News host is a frequent purveyor of outrageous Nazi analogies.

Recently, he’s trotted out such comparisons most often in relation to Hamas. In May, he made the mind-boggling suggestion that Hamas’s October 7, 2023, attack was in ways worse than the Holocaust, telling NPR that “Israel had people murdered in the most vicious, horrible way that we’ve seen, and—I wanted to say, since the Holocaust, but, in all candor, as awful as the crimes were in the Holocaust, they weren’t worse, and, in some cases, they weren’t as malicious.”

Huckabee’s penchant for frivolous Nazi comparisons goes back years. In 2015, he likened Obama’s Iran nuclear deal to “marching the Israelis to the door of the oven.” Search earlier still, and you’ll find out that plenty more has brought Nazism to Huckabee’s mind—be it abortions, gay marriage, or gun control.

Jews "Conflicted" about Israel's Genocide in Palestine are Hypocrites

How could they not have known that Israel doesn't seek peace with the indigenous people it expelled and ethnically cleansed from their native lands?

How can they now claim they didn't know that Zionists want ALL of Palestine and have never been interested in peaceful coexistence?

How can they claim now that they never heard the Palestinians' cries of despair, destitution, dispossession, displacement, and lives under a brutal foreign occupation?

Did they really need to see emaciated starving Palestinian children, who look no different from the emaciated starving concentration camp victims, to realize what has been going on in Palestine for a century?

It is very convenient now, when it is almost too late, to claim to have some humanity in the face of the extermination of an entire population and the theft of its land and country.

Just like the English colonial crooks who manufactured all this tragedy, and only now, one hundred years after they themselves unleashed the barbaric Zionist invasion and ethnic cleansing of Palestine (culminating in the Nakba of 1948) do we have the English prime minister Keith Starmer threatening Israel with recognizing a Palestinian state IF AND ONLY IF Israel does not stop its starvation of Palestinian children.

In other words, Palestine is not a position of principle for the UK's Prime Crook, Keith Starmer. If the war criminal Netanyahu allows a few trucks into Gaza, Keith Starmer will NOT recognize Palestine to reward Netanyahu.

The criminality of the Zionist regime has been obvious for decades. It is sad that acts of legitimate resistance against a foreign occupier have been branded "terrorism". But unfortunately, when people are pushed into a corner where they face two options, death or death, they are likely to act in desperation and violence.

It is sad to admit that Hamas has indeed won this war. The whole world now knows the cause of Palestine. The whole world now knows the colonial history of the Israeli entreprise. The whole world now knows that Palestinians have always been the victims, and that they are much more than a bunch of raggedy refugees. Even if Hamas is utterly destroyed as Netanyahu's claimed objective is, Israel has lost because Palestine is now an unavoidable reality staring at us in the face, and all those who contributed to the tragedy of one victimized people being given a license to victimize another innocent people have to now reckon whith what they've done to Palestine.

Yes, what is going on Palestine is not occuring in a vacuum: It has a long history of the extermination of one people anf the theft of its land. Everything else is a smokescreen to cover up for the crime.

Jon Stewart Reveals What His Jewish Upbringing Teaches Him About Israel's War On Gaza
Ben Blanchet
Wed, July 30, 2025


Jon Stewart 

“Daily Show” host Jon Stewart on Monday explained why he’s felt “like a crazy person” as he witnesses the worsening humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip amid Israel’s war on the besieged territory.

“I feel like I’m watching something that is so self-evidently inhumane and horrific and to be told that I have to shut up because I risk the Jewish state by speaking out? I would say the opposite,” said Stewart in an interview with Jewish Currents editor-at-large Peter Beinart.

“I think they’re putting the likelihood of a surviving Jewish state much more at risk with this type of action. I think they’re the ones being [antisemitic] ... [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu, with the definition of antisemitism, would probably have to bomb himself.”

Stewart, whose family is Ashkenazi Jewish, said he learned from Judaism that Jewish people are the “underdog” and said he’s “always looked at the chosen people as kind of awry.”

Stewart stressed that he knows what he’s seeing in Gaza, where experts have flagged a “worst-case scenario of famine” occurring despite Israeli leaders like Netanyahu claiming that “no starvation” is taking place there.

“And I have a moral clarity about what I’m seeing,” Stewart told Beinart, who was on the “Daily Show” to promote his new book “Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza: A Reckoning.”

“And what I’m seeing, I think — as someone who was raised in Judaism — that’s what taught me that this is wrong. What I’m seeing happening in Gaza is wrong,” Stewart said.

Stewart’s interview with Beinart arrived on the same day that two major Israeli human rights groups concluded in separate reports that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.

Earlier in the segment, Stewart — who has covered the Israeli-Palestinian conflict a number of times on his show — took aim at those who “yell” at him and call him a “bad Jew” over his comments on the war.

“Apparently you can lose points,” Stewart quipped.

Reasons MAGA Morons Voted then Dumped the Moron-in-Chief

To all those MAGA morons who are now changing their minds on Trump, I say to them:

It's too late now. You've put a pervert convicted seditious criminal felon in charge of the country. It's your goddam fault for being ignorant idiots. 

You knew but chose to ignore. You can't now say you didn't know. You knew he was a criminal, a bullshiter, a tax cheat, a sex pervert, a many-times bankrupt swindler, a traitor who led a seditious movement against the government of his own country.... Yet you still voted for him because maybe he was white, maybe because his opponent was a dark-skinned woman and you're a racist sexist white man, maybe you liked his fake "strong" image.... All wrong reasons to elect someone. So, in response to your regrets below, I say to you: F- --k you.

"I Want Him Impeached Now": Former Trump Supporters Are Revealing Exactly When They Changed Their Minds
Megan Liscomb
Wed, July 30, 2025

Recently, on Reddit, ex-Trump supporters opened up about what made them change their minds about the President, and their responses were shockingly honest. Here are some of the most thought-provoking answers:

1."A few months ago, I began to dislike him because of his treatment of Zelenskyy. The Epstein files were the nail in the coffin. I want him impeached now." —IAmABearOfficial

2."I'm originally from Alabama [This explains your moronity], so I was taught to just vote Republican. So 2016 rolls around, and I do that. I never really paid attention to politics, so I didn't care about my vote. Especially in a red-dominated state. I didn't pay attention to politics til the end of 2019 and going into 2020. When COVID hit, I watched the news more closely and listened to the idiotic stuff he was saying. When he mentioned something about putting disinfectant in our bodies, I knew this wasn't the guy for our country or me. As the months and years went on, my opinions of him got worse and worse."

"Most of my acquaintances that I still talk to ask me if I would rather have 'Sleepy Joe' instead. My response is, 'If someone is sleeping, they are not fucking things up currently.' But apologies that I didn't pay closer attention in 2016. I wouldn't have voted for him if I knew. I can't even vote Republican anymore cause they aren't true Republicans anymore. They are MAGA kiss asses."—UberFabulous

3."Watching 75-year-old Martin Gugino being violently shoved by riot police and cracking his head on the pavement during the 2020 protests in Buffalo, NY. Then watching Trump get on Twitter, making up all sorts of lies to justify it."—Economy_Combination4

4."I joined the military. I grew up super conservative and carried that into adulthood. Then, being out of my hometown and among a diverse crowd and working with people from other countries, I realized that I was wrong. Empathy and compassion win over bigotry and hate." [This is revealing: American conservatives are SOOOOOO ignorant. They are such primitives that they always get a revelation when they step out of their backwoods and into the real world]. —misterfistyersister

5."Until the 2020 election, I only paid attention to voting records, policy statements, and platforms. What do I care what personality someone has, as long as they vote the way that aligns with my beliefs? It's the policies that matter, it's the bills that matter, not whether a politician is a little off-putting personally. I'm embarrassed now, but I was a Republican for far too long. I believed what the platform spoke of, and I believed the policy guidelines. I didn't pay attention to personalities or even specifics."

And I was more of a centrist-leaning conservative anyway. Not a hardliner, not a fascist. More of a 'yes, changes are needed, but let's do it carefully, let's pace ourselves, let's try not to change everything all at once. Let's take deliberate, well-planned steps, let's not rush things and do things we regret.'

And to be honest, all during Trump's first term, my life wasn't that bad. Whatever the federal government did during that period, it didn't affect me much. So what was I to be upset about? 'Stay the course,' I thought, 'because things are relatively okay for me now.'

But then I caught a random video that compiled many of the horrible things Trump has said and done. This was around January 2020. And I was horrified. Before this, I never gave him any attention.
And then came the 'UV light' thing for COVID and all the chicanery with how he handled the pandemic.

And I pulled my wife aside, and showed the video to her, and I asked her, 'Has he always been like this? Is this new?' And after her volley of punches at me, and after her voice gave out, screaming, 'Haven't you been paying attention?' I finally decided that I needed to do some more research.

I researched Trump, and all that he's done and said (policy aside). And I was disgusted. I could not believe I'd been blind to it all this time. And I researched the things Republicans have been trying to get done, and the dealings, and the lies, and the sneakiness, and the collusion, and the patronizing, and the racism, and the indifference to the poor, and the catering to the rich ... and I was also rather horrified, and embarrassed too.

And so I voted for Biden in 2020. I couldn't abide by this kind of leadership, this kind of morally corrupt person at the helm. And by 2024, I realized ... my life wasn't worse under a Democrat president either. What was I so afraid of?

And I noticed that most liberals weren't extreme anyway. They didn't want to enact sweeping changes that would make the USA look nothing like before. They wanted the same changes I wanted, maybe at a faster pace, maybe at a higher budgetary cost, but there was nothing I outright disagreed with.

And so while I deeply regret voting for Trump in 2016, I don't regret voting for Biden at all in 2020.
There you go. I'm that guy. I bared my soul here."—whomp1970

6."It was my first time voting. I voted for him in 2016. I was slowly becoming less and less of a fan in his first term. I was solidly not for him, but also not a hater by 2018 and into 19. I started thinking of myself as an independent. But once COVID hit, I saw how he pandered so hard to his conspiracy theorist base, yet got vaccinated. It made me flip a full 180 on him and just accept that I thought he lied, pandered, and did whatever he could to gain votes. He’d flip-flop on subjects based on how he thought which decision would make him more popular with his base."

"I grew up with very conservative parents, and hated Obama because of my parents. But I was in college, and Obama was finishing his last term while the primaries were going on. And I started to see that I actually didn’t hate Obama and thought he was a pretty decent president. So that was kind of the beginning of my political shift. But a full transformation did not happen until around COVID, when I had come to terms with the fact that I just didn’t agree with almost anything Trump or modern-day Republicans stood for."—tdoger

7."Back at the start of college, I liked the idea of 'draining the swamp' and getting a businessman and non-politician into government. Unfortunately, you can’t run the country like a business. It’s not meant to make a profit; it’s not supposed to be transactional. We do this, you do that."

"I was already not following him anymore by the time COVID came around, but his handling of the pandemic, attacking people, and treating it almost like a joke made no sense to me. At a time when you need someone to bring people together and comfort a public that was scared, he did nothing but point fingers, yell, and blame.

Come the Project 2025 stuff, I could not imagine supporting him. I’m still registered as a republican, but he holds no values that the true Republican Party holds, and has warped it into the MAGA party."—Nsgdoughboy

8."I've realized that he is not in line with God's teachings regarding how to view immigrants and the poor."—GolgothaBridge

9."Oh boy... I'd say my girlfriend had a big part in it, but specifically Tim Pool. Like many Republicans I know, I got my political info from rage-bait YouTubers and Facebook memes. I'd get riled up and say stupid shit, and she would listen, and then start to ask questions, and we'd look up the issue and discuss, and more often than not, I'd admit I was wrong and eat a nice helping of crow. That being said, the single event that made me go 'wait a fucking minute...that doesn't sound right at all' was the New York Attorney General fraud case against Trump."

"I was all aboard the 'he's being politically persecuted' angle being pumped out by traitors. I was listening to Tim Pool rage on the 'woke, liberal left' and this AG case, and he was, as many of them do, explaining to his audience about how the case wasn't fraud. And then he brought up on air the Zillow value of Mar-a-Lago to prove a point.

I'm a numbers guy. I work in engineering for commercial and residential construction. A billion+ vs. $26m is a 'yuge' difference. The value stated was so absurd, I stopped what I was doing to look it up. Then, I compared it to the surrounding properties. Then I read through the indictment. Then I looked up the history of the place, Trump, and how exactly they tax access properties in Palm Beach, I believe. The numbers don't lie. I understood without digging too long why the property was actually valued so low and why he was charged with fraud.

This, of course, led me to ask, 'What else am I being bullshitted about?' And I deep dove into all his trials, what actually happened on January 6, the fake electors scheme, his history of being an anthropomorphic shit stain, etc. Yes, I feel like an asshat for supporting him. In fact, Harris was the first political campaign I ever donated to. I've also tried to talk to some family, friends, and co-workers, but they are so far up Fox News' ass they couldn't hear me if they wanted to. I'm the un-American traitor now. It's disappointing."—Truxxis

10."At a terrifying time, when what we truly needed was empathy and unity, I saw the guy I'd proudly voted for in '16 do the opposite of everything my morals stood for. Every day, I watched him bitch and complain about everyone who disagreed with him. Then the BLM George Floyd protests started. The demonization of anyone standing up for civil rights and change was too much. And the final straw was when he had his goons tear-gassed peaceful American protesters, so he could pose for his stupid photo shoot, cemented it."—locofspades

11."I voted for him because I definitely didn’t want Hillary. I wanted an outsider to come in and drain the swamp. It became pretty clear not long into his first term that he wasn’t going to drain the swamp. He also chewed through some people I respect highly (Generals Mattis and Kelly, among others) and was extremely disrespectful towards them, which I had a problem with. While it was chaotic, it was entertaining, but I knew pretty quickly he was not a good leader. The events of J6 to me were surreal and really opened my eyes up to what a bag of shit he was."—Humphrey_the_Hoser

12."The barbaric actions of ICE agents rounding up and deporting people of color. A large portion of the workforce is immigrants who are honest, hardworking people. Some of the people being detained are US citizens, but they don’t ask for proof of citizenship. It’s just detain first, ask questions later. When he said he was going after criminals, I was hoping for violent gang members like Tren de Aragua. He also mentioned tighter border policies, and I was hoping it would reduce the flow of fentanyl into this country. I wanted a safer border and country, not the deportation of immigrants who haven’t done anything wrong." —killerzf9

13."As an independent, I leaned more conservative, so I usually voted Republican. (But not always. I stumped and voted for Obama.) I was really on the fence in 2016, but I was so upset with Clinton and her handling of Benghazi that I just couldn't bring myself to vote for her. Most of my family was voting for T., so I went along. I regretted that choice."

"Pretty much everything he did regarding environmental policy and pulling out of the Paris Accord angered me. I have been around long enough to remember rivers being on fire, and coughing my way to work, driving through smog that was as opaque as any heavy fog.

But how he, and the entire GOP congress, peddled COVID-denying science, recommending stupid 'cures,' sending test kits to Russia, repudiating vaccines... ZERO compassion. Bad enough that he was doing it, but for the entire party to echo his insanity... I still consider myself an Independent, but I'll never vote Republican again."—AncienTleeOnez

14."I genuinely didn't like the overstepping of political correctness. Then he stacked the Supreme Court, and we witnessed the overturning of Roe v Wade. That's when I realized the man is a pawn in a larger crusade, and they have the upper hand. That's when I got genuinely afraid. Don't get me wrong, I quickly saw how much of an A-hole he was, but it was all water under the bridge until major, life-changing things happened even before he was back in office. Now he threatens my life and everything I want out of this life (to do my science). That fear has turned into rage."—TheTopNacho

16."For me, it was rather simple. I started to see his BS rhetoric as just that. Everything he did was the best it had ever been done. No, it wasn't. He'd double down on shit. Then he started vilifying everyone who disagreed with him in public. It made me cringe when he spoke for Americans because I didn't feel that way. The way he demeaned people was the last straw. I would say I'm still conservative, but as long as MAGA represents the face of conservatism, I will have nothing to do with it."—martinfendertaylor

Trump: I Broke up with Epstein Because he was Stealing Underage Girls from Me

 
Trump says Epstein ‘stole’ underage victim Virginia Giuffre from his Mar-a-Lago spa, leading to feud
Andrew Feinberg
Tue, July 29, 2025

President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he ended his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein because the disgraced financier “stole” young women working at his Mar-a-Lago spa too many times — including a 17-year-old Virginia Giuffre.

Speaking aboard Air Force One while returning from his five-day combination golf holiday and tariff summit in Scotland, Trump was asked about comments he’d made over the weekend suggesting that he’d banned the pedophile power-player from his Palm Beach club for hiring away employees.

He confirmed that Epstein “took people that work for me” and did so again despite being admonished not to poach Mar-a-Lago workers by Trump.

“He took people that work for me, and I told him, don’t do it any more. And he did it. I said, stay the hell out of here,” he said.

Pressed further on whether the workers poached by Epstein included Giuffre, then a Mar-a-Lago pool locker-room attendant whose groundskeeper dad got her a job there, Trump confirmed she was among the poachings.

“I told him, I said, listen, we don’t want you taking our people, whether it was spa or not spa. I don’t want him taking people. And he was fine. And then, not too long after that, he did it again. And I said, out of here,” he said, describing Epstein as having “stolen” his spa workers.

Asked point blank if one of them was Giuffre, who died aged 41 by suicide earlier this year, he replied: “I think she worked at the spa. I think so. I think that was one of the people.”

“I don’t know. I think she worked at the spa. I think so. I think that was one of the people, yeah, he stole her,” Trump added. “And by the way, she had no complaints about us, as you know, none whatsoever.”

Giuffre met Epstein’s accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, at Mar-a-Lago in 2000, she told the BBC, and she offered her an interview to train as a massage therapist. Giuffre was ultimately recruited and groomed by Maxwell and raped by Epstein on numerous occasions after being ostensibly hired as a “masseuse” by the pedophile.

The president’s new claim about the reasons why he ended a years-long friendship with Epstein contradicts previous statements made by him over the years concerning why he cut off contact with the notorious sex offender, who was arrested in March 2019 on federal sex trafficking charges and died by suicide in a Manhattan jail cell while awaiting trial.

He previously said he cut off contact with Epstein because he was a “creep,” citing a 2009 conviction for soliciting underage prostitutes. Trump and people close to him have routinely cited the end of his friendship with Epstein when attempting to distance the president from the disgraced sex trafficker.

The last few weeks of Trump’s presidency have been consumed by scandal over his administration’s handling of longstanding calls from his supporters to release files associated with the cases of Epstein and Maxwell, who is currently serving a two-decade sentence in a Florida prison for sex trafficking charges.

Trump has repeatedly denied any connection to Epstein’s infamous lifestyle, having ended their friendship before the disturbing allegations about the financier emerged in 2006, and has sued The Wall Street Journal and its owner, Rupert Murdoch, over an article that reported he sent a “bawdy” birthday card message to Epstein for his 50th birthday.

Trump called the report false and defamatory.

Asked about the matter of the Epstein files on Monday, during a bilateral meeting with Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, Trump went on an extended rant during which he accused Democrats of having fabricated the whole issue for political gain.

He called the bipartisan clamor for the documents “a hoax that’s been built up way beyond proportion” and accused his predecessor of having tampered with the infamous case files.

“Those files were run by the worst scum on earth. They were run by Comey, they were run by Garland, they were run by Biden, and all of the people that actually ran the government, including the auto pen. Those files were run for four years by those people. If they had anything, I assume they would have released it,” he said.

He also said that he turned down an invitation to Jeffrey Epstein’s notorious island, characterizing the decision as “one of my very good moments.”

“I never had the privilege of going to his island, and I did turn it down, but a lot of people in Palm Beach were invited to his island,” he said. “I turned it down. I didn’t want to go to his island.”

The Scots Welcome Trump with Anatomically Correct Slogans

Trump's mother was a Scotland-born migrant, maybe illegal, to the US. He might as well have deported her because she was costing the federal government some money, especially after she gave birth to a tax evading scheming cheat.

"You know, America was our ally for so long. We relied on America so much. Now, it's an embarrassment," she says. "I don't know, it's very, very tricky. I think politically, yes, we've got to play nice. But on the other hand, if we condone his behavior, what message are we sending out to the world?"
