U.S. and ISRAEL IMPERIALISM - FOLLOW THE MONEY

Caitlin Johnstone

In case you haven’t figured it out yet, “terrorist organization” is a completely arbitrary designation which is used as a tool of western narrative control to justify war and militarism.

Hezbollah is killing Israeli soldiers who are invading their country while Israeli soldiers are deliberately killing women and children and medical staff and journalists.

Guess which side the west calls terrorists.

In case you haven’t figured it out yet, “terrorist organization” is a completely arbitrary designation which is used as a tool of western narrative control to justify war and militarism. In effect it just means “disobedient population who need bombs dropped on them”.

The open letter to President Biden from 99 U.S. healthcare workers who volunteered in Gaza contains a quote from Dr Mark Perlmutter, “Gaza was the first time I held a baby’s brains in my hand. The first of many.”

You know what? We’re the fucking terrorists. We are. All of us who live in the western power alliance who haven’t stopped our governments from backing this mass atrocity.

The word “terrorist” won’t have any meaning or relevance until it applies first and foremost to the giant globe-spanning power structure that is inflicting this nightmare upon our species.

Democrats are seriously going to do all this evil shit in the middle east and then blame Jill Stein and Chappell Roan if Kamala loses.

Normal person: A war with Iran would be disastrous.

Crazy person: Oh so you love the Ayatollah and you think theocracy is good and you hate gay people and you want all women to wear hijabs.

Iran is not Iraq. Iran can fight back. A direct war with Iran would be a nightmare. It would make Iraq look like a walk in the park. It would be vastly more deadly, destructive and destabilizing.

Iran is not the enemy. The enemy are the pricks in the US and Israel who’ve been pushing us toward this war.

Every nation on the top ten proven oil reserves list is either a target of US warmongering, has already been ruined by U.S. warmongering, or is part of the U.S.-centralized power structure.

1. Venezuela
2. Saudi Arabia
3. Canada
4. Iran
5. Iraq
6. Kuwait
7. United Arab Emirates
8. Russia
9. Libya
10. Nigeria

Everyone who’s been watching the daily footage of shredded human bodies from Israeli massacres this past year has a very different attitude toward Israel than everyone who has not. Not just because the footage shapes your views, but because Israel supporters avoid looking at it.

Nobody honestly still believes Israel kills all these women, children, journalists, medical staff and humanitarian aid workers by accident. You either know they do it on purpose and you say so, or you know they do it on purpose but you never admit it in order to protect a political agenda.
