[Editor’s note: Please consider sharing Pastor Munther Isaac’s urgent message – concerning the ongoing ethnic cleansing/genocide of the Palestinian people by the government of Israel – with Christian leaders across the Earth. Thank you very much.]
[Editor’s note: Ramzy Baroud writes: “For Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a US-Iran war would be a lifeline for a desperate politician who fully, and rightly, understands that a no-victory in Gaza would equal a defeat for the Israeli army. Such a defeat would not only be a disgraceful end for Netanyahu’s political career, but also the end of a long-sustained myth that Israel, and the US, can impose their political will on the Middle East through military superiority and firepower.
“The Biden administration must be fully aware of Netanyahu’s intention to drag the region into the abyss of what would possibly be one of the most devastating wars in recent memory. Reported disagreements and a rift between Biden and Netanyahu are not related to any US moral objection to the Israeli genocide in Gaza, of course, but to a real American fear that another Middle East war could precipitate the breakdown of US power in the energy-rich region and beyond.
“Thus, the current impasse, which sees Washington’s inability to free itself from its blind commitment to Israel and its violent ideology, Zionism, and Netanyahu’s inability to distinguish between the goal of sustaining his own political career and that of destroying the whole of the Middle East.
“Unable to place US interests above those of Israel, Biden continues to feed the Israeli military machine, which is mostly used to kill Palestinian civilians in Gaza. This is allowing Netanyahu to champion a perpetual war in Gaza, while working to expand the conflict so that it reaches Beirut, Tehran and other regional capitals…”
…Mr. Baroud’s keen observations should serve as a grim, fair warning to the world that mass murderers like Benjamin Netanyahu need to become rebuked, stopped, and removed completely from society, – before Netanyahu’s increasing desperation and dangerousness spins out of control.]
Palestinians are at the heart of the conflict in the M.E Palestinians uprooted by force of arms.. Yet faced immense difficulties have survived, kept alive their history and culture, passed keys of family homes in occupied Palestine from one generation to the next.
This blog is devoted to legal, historical and human rights matters, in which issues of general concern are addressed freely and spontaneously. It is intended to further an informal exchange of views in the democratic spirit of freedom of opinion and respect for the opinions of others, in an effort to understand rather than condemn, to propose constructive solutions rather than grandstand. The perspective is both from inside and outside the box and the added value lies more in the questions than in the answers.
