ARAB WHISPERERS


by Malik Isasis























Israel has shut off the power in the Gaza Strip in a response to Qassam rocket attacks from across the Gaza Strip. The Israeli government continues its campaign of 10,000 eyes for an eye, collectively punishing the whole of the Palestinian population to bring them undercontrol.

Another form of sanctions that will be utilized is significantly cutting the volume of fuel, particularly gasoline, allowed into the Gaza Strip.

I find the total subjugation of the Palestinian people abhorrent. Particularly as the collective punishment by Israel against the Palestinian people e.g. bulldozing homes, bombing campaigns, and outright occupation hasn’t worked in the past. The strategy of overreacting isn’t meant to work. The strategy is to break the Palestinians’ will and for demands of statehood and that way, Israel can hold on to the land it has already stolen.

The Brethren

The neoconservatives in Israel’s Likud Party, for instance Benjamin Netanyahu have been on a non-stop campaign to convince not the American public, who gives a shit about them, but American officials in both the Republican and Democratic Parties, that Iran is a nuclear threat not only to Israel but the Unites States as well. The Israeli neocons have successfully triangulated the United States into an illegal invasion and Occupation of Iraq, a bombing campaign in Lebanon, and now a build up to war with Iran. American and Israeli neocons work in tandem to deceive both American and Israeli citizenry, through a campaign of dehumanizing Arab people, and discrediting progressive opposition by making Arabs and Muslim (and now Persian) people monsters.

George Bush has taken Israel’s recipe for disaster and has created his very own upside down cake. Now, the United States has its very own country of occupied Arabs its government is trying to domesticate through pure, unadulterated violence.

Semitism

The complete arrogance, and white supremacist policies of Israel is pathetic as they show the world how to domesticate unarmed, broken infrastructure, and military less Arab people. What’s more, is that the world stands by giving Israel a freehand so as not to seem anti-Semitic for the cultural and slow-burn genocide or democide that is occurring in Palestine against the Palestinians.

As Arabs are Semitic people too, it’s anti-Semitic for the world to stand by and do absolutely nothing, right?
