Israel's Rogue Killing Machine

Viktor Beller | 13.03.2012 13:53 | University Occupations for Gaza | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | Terror War | Cambridge

Israel's entire history reflects depraved, out-of-control targeted and mass killings. Days of unrelenting bombing, murdering and injuring Gazans shows its contempt for law and human life. Netanyahu exceeds the worst of Ariel Sharon and other rogue Israeli leaders. Gideon Levy says Israel never had one like him before. He governs by deceit, mocks the peace process, and reflects extreme racist hate for Arabs. Murdering Gazans shows why. So did his comment saying he'll kill as many more as he wishes "as long as necessary" to achieve his degenerate aims. Four merciless bombing days left at least 25 dead and dozens injured, many seriously. Civilians, including children were victimized. Washington expressed support. ........


Blaming victims for Israeli crimes, State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland spoke for war criminal Hillary Clinton saying:

"We condemn in the strongest terms the rocket fire from Gaza by terrorists into southern Israel in recent days, which has dramatically and dangerously escalated in the past day."

"We call on those responsible to take immediate action to stop these cowardly acts. We regret the loss of life and injuries, and we call on both sides to make every effort to restore calm."

America's scurrilous UN envoy Susan Rice also "thoroughly condemn(ed) terrorist rocket fire from Gaza into southern Israeli towns & cities and call(ed) on both sides to restore calm." Obama so far said nothing.

Israel initiated violence. Palestinians responded defensively. Washington and Israel call self-defense terrorism. On March 11, Max Blumenthal asked if Obama green-lighted Netanyahu's attacks in return for delaying action on Iran until America's ready.

As a result, Israel's killing machine rages out of control in day four. International law prohibits extrajudicial and indiscriminate killing. The Al Mezan Center for Human Rights said it reflects Israel's "disregard for its moral and legal obligations." ..........

"Is this Indymedia UK or Indymedia Tehran ?"

In answer to your question this is Indymedia UK. As far as I'm aware there isn't an Indymedia Tehran.

You aren't trying to suggest that any and all criticism of Israel MUST be coming out of Iran are you?

Next you'll be saying all Jews are Zionists, or all English are Conservatives or all Irishmen are Republicans!

Speaking slowly for Joshua's benefit

No Joshua I am not suggesting any of the things you say (slaps forehead with palm of hand in disbelief )

I am suggesting that certain contributors to and administrators of Indymedia UK have an unhealthy obsession with all things Jewish which mirrors the illegal administration in Iran.

Anyway, the main points is ...

13.03.2012 17:03

... that the OP is spouting bollocks. This was a highly successful series of carefully targeted strikes on missile crews with at least a 90% success rate against terrorist squads who deliberately put both local and Israeli civilians in harm's way. The unfortunate twelve-year-old boy who was killed wandered into a missile launch site just as rockets were being fired. So why was Islamic Jihad firing from the vicinity of a school as children were arriving for morning classes? At the very best extreme recklessness - and most certainly a war crime if anyone's keeping count.
The original targeted killing of the PRC leader was entirely justified, as he was the organiser of the August 18th 2011 cross border attack, which left 8 Israelis dead - and five Egyptian border guards, not to mention ten terrorist scum. Another similar attack was in the pipeline.

"I am suggesting that certain contributors to and administrators of Indymedia UK have an unhealthy obsession with all things Jewish which mirrors the illegal administration in Iran."

Slap your head some more.

The anti-semitic comments which are being posted to the site do not come from the moderators but from outside the Kollective from an individual who seems to think that division and disruption of IMC is a good thing! He is clearly a fraud and covertly campaigns in defence of what he is overtly campaigning against!

Indymedia is not a chatterbox for the Iranians, and it is not a chatterbox for fraudulent so-called left leaning activists who have a penchant for double dealing and who think the rest of the world is fool enough to be blind to what they are doing.

In the end...he just got too clever and too confident.

Twas ever the way.

Wedlock.
