In Hollywood, Criticizing Israel’s Assault On Gaza Comes With A Price

Rolling Stone:

Hamas’ terrorist attacks of Oct. 7, resulting in the deaths of over 1,200 people in Israel and around 240 hostages taken, and Israel’s military response, which has taken the lives of an estimated 13,000 Palestinian civilians have brought the Israel-Palestine issue to the top of everyone’s social media feeds, including those in Hollywood, a town with lots of Jews in it. And the ways Hollywood leaders have retaliated against any criticism of the Israeli government during the ongoing conflict could start to resemble a new Hollywood blacklist.

That reminds me of a joke that a great comedian once told:

Israeli Forces Carry Out Deadly Raids In The West Bank Amid Gaza Truce

Al Jazeera:

Israeli forces have killed eight Palestinians, including a child, in the occupied West Bank, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, taking the total number of Palestinians killed in the West Bank to 239 since October 7.

Israeli forces shot dead five Palestinians in the city of Jenin late on Saturday and early Sunday, and killed three others elsewhere in the West Bank, the ministry said on Sunday. Six other Palestinians were injured in the Israeli raid in Jenin.

The ceasefire in Gaza is holding, but a Palestinian is a Palestinian, I suppose. According to the New York Times, the ethnic cleansing of Gaza has proceeded at an historic pace:

While wartime death tolls will never be exact, experts say that even a conservative reading of the casualty figures reported from Gaza show that the pace of death during Israel’s campaign has few precedents in this century.

But the century is young. As the humanitarian crisis unfolding in Gaza continues to worsen, the Zionists are planning to end the ceasefire and resume the ethnic cleansing of Gaza just as soon as Hamas has given up its leverage:

IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Herzi Halevi on Sunday evening approved Israeli military plans in the Gaza Strip following the conclusion of the four-day truce with Hamas, the IDF confirmed.

Thus it is unlikely that Hamas will give up all of its leverage (the hostages).

The Zionists’ 9/11

As a Christian and especially as an American, I have no loyalty or attachment to the modern, Zionist State of Israel. I do not particularly care about the Holocaust; I had two grandpas and a great-grandpa enlisted in the Allied cause during World War II–we did our part. I do not care if the Zionist state is “a democracy” (the US is not “a democracy”). I also do not simp for the Zionists based on the notion that we worship the same God. Christians worship the same God whom the Muslims purport to worship, and I have no special attachment to Islam, either.

I do not believe anything my own government says, and I do not believe anything the Zionist state says, either. My own government is perfectly willing to get its citizens killed in order to plunge the United States into war, the Zionist state is perfectly willing to kill US citizens in order to plunge the United States into war, and so I must therefore conclude that the Zionist state is perfectly willing to get its own civilians killed in order to plunge itself into war.

People who are saying that the October 7, 2023 Hamas offensive was the Zionists’ 9/11 are more correct than they will ever know. The Zionist state watched Hamas prepare. The Zionist state received advance warnings. The Zionist state knew Hamas’ attack was coming. The Zionist state wanted the attack to happen. There is another glaring parallel: just as the United States government created al-Qaeda and the Taliban, the Zionist state created Hamas.

Thus, for the Zionist state, and especially for its current administration, the October 7, 2023 Hamas offensive was a mission accomplished. Now the Zionist state has a pretext to commit various war crimes and ethnic cleansing in Gaza. The expansionist, Zionist state needs to commit war crimes and ethnic cleansing in both Palestinian territories in order to claim those territories for itself. We are now seeing it happen in Gaza.

While Hamas hides in the safety of their vast tunnel network, it is the Palestinian people who now face the wrath of the Zionists. Exponentially more innocent women, babies, and children are being mercilessly slaughtered before our very eyes than those who died on October 7. Many of the Palestinians now facing the wrath of the Zionists are themselves Christians, like me.

As an American, I am supposed to have no dog in this fight. My ancestors created the United States and gave us the birthright of not being entangled in foreign wars. Unfortunately, the US government has long been politically captured by non-Americans and anti-Americans alike. And so we face the fact that none of the ongoing horrors in the Middle East would currently be happening without the unwavering support of our own government.

We now stand ever closer to the precipice of World War. The Zionist state will continue its indiscriminate slaughter of civilians until they send thousands of unprepared reservists into an obvious trap. But what will happen next? Before the recent moves toward Sunni-Shiite rapprochement, while the Redirection was generally succeeding, we used Hamas to fight the Shiites in Syria. Will Hezbollah and Iran forgive and forget? Is Hezbollah waiting for the Zionist reservists to invade Gaza before unleashing hell from the north? Will Syria join? Will the Shiite militia networks of Syria and Iraq be a factor? What about Houthi Yemen? Will Iran act to protect the Shiite crescent, or attack the Zionist state outright? Will the United States intervene against Iran? Will Russia intervene against the United States? How are the Sunnis, Arabs, and Turks going to respond? What about Pakistan, India, and China?

It is difficult to see how this situation will be resolved without genocide or World War. With the US political/entertainment Establishment consisting almost entirely of bloodthirsty warmongering Globalists and bloodthirsty warmongering Neocons, who all share an affinity for bloodthirsty warmongering Zionism, all we Christians and Americans can really do is pray and hope for peace.

PA Joins Arabs Seeking To Normalize Ties With Syria’s Assad

The Jerusalem Post:

A Palestinian delegation visiting Damascus on Sunday delivered a letter from Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas to Syrian President Bashar Assad.

The visit is seen in the context of efforts by the PA and some Arab countries to normalize and strengthen their relations with Damascus as part of an attempt to limit Iran’s influence in the region in general and Syria in particular.

The United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Jordan, Tunisia, Oman, Iraq and Algeria have over the past few months signaled their desire to restore their relations with Syria.
