Which is it to be: slow or quick death?
When Palestinian fighters broke out of the Gaza Strip on the 7th of October, were they choosing between a slow and a quick death for themselves and their families? Regardless, many if not most of the fighters and their families are now martyrs.
There have been many Israeli bombing campaigns against Gaza and its people since the Israeli blockade began 16 years ago. Israeli ministers have made no secret that they are executing a second al Nakba.
The Gaza that we are looking at in 2023 may become worse than the original al Nakba where Zionist henchmen massacred the people of Deir Yassin and proceeded to ethnically cleanse Palestine of its original inhabitants, clearing out 300,000 people from land, villages and houses, stealing everything (except the key to the front doors) which Palestinian refugees took with them.
Of course, the Zionists had been executing Palestinians since the 1920s.
Is Israeli occupation of Gaza in 2023 an attempt at ‘the final solution’ with all its portents? Will it be stopped? Every opportunity for doing so has been blocked by the United States. President Biden gave the occupation forces the green light to invade the largest remaining piece of civil infrastructure in the strip, that is, the Al-Shifa hospital. Biden Is under extreme pressure from the zionists to invoke the genocide with 300,000 zionists rallying in In support of Israel in the United States capital, Washington, just the other day.
Opposition on the street by Palestinians and their supporters throughout the Arab world and throughout the Western world has been unified.
It is only the elites who have supported Israel. The response by the foreign minister for Jordan was very disappointing; he’s still talking about the two state solution that was dead in the water decades ago.
Here is Ramzy Baroud’s take on the Israeli lies to justify their occupation forces attack on the Al-Shifa hospital with the complicity of the United States and whichever other countries have been arming Israel, including the Australian government.
After Gaza, Lebanon?
