Then again, what would you expect from a racist state founded by thieves, thugs, murderers and liars? As horrible as it is, there is nothing new in this report. Palestinians have been brutalized, slaughtered, dispossessed, humilated and occupied for over 60 years by Israel. Thankfully, however, the world is now learning the true nature of the beast and has relegated it to pariah status.

Israeli violation of human rights and international law against Palestinians, in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, are monumental, including the violation of virtually every article of the Fourth Geneva Convention. These violations are deemed, by international law, as war crimes.

Despite this, the audacity of Israel and its apologists, who speak of Israel as the oasis of democracy and its army as the most moral army in the world, defies credibility.

What can be said of a population that approves overwhelmingly of the regular bombing, torture, incarceration and general oppression of its Host, than that it is in the grips of collective psychosis?

A group that could approve by 85% the near-total destruction of a defenseless prison camp known as Gaza, the gratuitous destruction of acres of crops and thousands of homes, can it be considered anything but psychologically troubled?

I’m afraid that, before much can be done to ensure a peaceful future for the Palestinians, Israel will need to undergo sensitive, expert psychological ‘detoxification’, to coax it back from the brink.

That a demonstrably irrational people should possess nuclear weapons and the latest in Wmds [and have shown little reticence to use them] ought to be source of concern to us all.

Time for the Israelis to do a bit of soul searching, either on their own or with outside assistance. But something has to be done.

No shrike, of course not. But for very many Israeli Jews it is regretably undeniable that the sordid equation is indeed true, and to deny so, in the face of the mountains of irrefutable evidence, is simply inadmissable. Moreover Israel is not a ‘model democracy’ as its deranged apologists assert. It is a pitilessly cruel, sadistic, racist tyranny, that has kept an entire people, in the ,millions, imprisoned and brutalised for decades, while stealing their land, and utilising their unparalleled money, political and media power to vilely traduce and demonise them.

It would seem that there is no degree of pure evil to which Israel will not stoop.

There needs to be a worldwide boycott of that truly vile nation.

The inescapable corollary to this tale of human barbarity and sadism, so typical over the behaviour over the ages of Western settler societies against the untermenschen they seek to displace or, if required, eradicate, is the incessant Zionasty lie campaign to deny it all. After the outrages in Gaza, as the Red Cross, Amnesty, Medicines sans Frontiers, the UN etc all reported atrocities against defenceless civilians, in the Australian Rightwing media they were all denounced as ‘anti-Semites’. End of story.
The revelations by Israeli troops themselves of atrocities in Gaza, were dropped after a day or two, and the detestable self-exculpation by the Israelis (the IDF is the ‘most moral army’ etc-we all know the drum)loudly trumpeted. The cover-up by the arch-Zionist Goldstone goes unreported. The media acts just as one would expect of a sewer (my apologies to turds) run in large part by Judaic money power. Then these moral imbeciles turn about and direct their talents for hysterical, self-righteous and cynical lying to Iran. Quite possibly this campaign is not designed to overthrow the Iranian system, but merely to ferment enough hatred and contempt to make possible an Israeli attack, or even more draconian sanctions by the US. Without a doubt, the Western mainstream media is a mighty engine of moral and spiritual evil, populated, as far as I am concerned, by some of the most scabrous specimes of the genus Homo extant.
