I have said several times on this site that the UK is infested with Zionist supporters in Parliament, the law, the media, the entertainment industries, the financial world and the churches. Often I am accused of anti-Semitism for saying it.

I have just returned from a protest outside the Egyptian Embassy in London (a posh side street in Mayfair no less!) declaiming Mubarak as a traitor and Zionist stooge. One of the placards had a photo of Livni and Mubarak shaking hands and seated with her saying ‘Now Mr President here are your instructions to build the steel underground wall at Rafah’ and him replying ‘Yes Ma’am’.

Last Sunday several thousand of us were outside the Israeli Embassy in Kensington High Street loudly calling for an end to the siege of Gaza and commemorating the anniversary of Cast Lead.

Here is my hero, your countryman John Pilger writing of his hero George Orwell.

He speaks the truth here – ‘Behind much of this are the Israelis, who have long advised the Americans in both the Iraq and the Afghanistan adventures. Ethnic cleansing, wall-building, checkpoints, collective punishment and constant surveillance – these are claimed as Israeli innovations that have succeeded in stealing most of Palestine from its native people. And yet, for all their suffering, the Palestinians have not been divided irrevocably and they endure as a nation against all odds.’

Maryb, this is indeed a fine letter, but why the extreme delicacy concerning Milipede’s (I love it!)religious and cultural background.Unless it is rammed home, day after day, that your Foreign Office is now run by Zionist Jews, who in my opinion,make no pretence that their prime loyalty is not to Israel, and who use their power to pursue Zionist goals, the destruction of the Islamic states of the Middle East, and the demonisation of China the plain priorities, then the UK public will remain ignorant. In Australia I recall David Marr, a fine writer, being on a panel of Rightwing thugs on ABC radio,justifiably criticising the appalling decision of the Rudd regime (careering faster and faster to the Right. Who would have guessed?)to vote against the Goldstone Report in the UN. But he did not have the guts to add the obvious rider,without which such a detestable vote for child murder makes no moral sense, that Rudd ordered such a vicious move because he was either directly pressured by our Zionist Lobbies, inside Parliament or without,who are breathtakingly arrogant and belligerent, or because he made ritual obeisance to the Supreme Beings, knowing that even a moment’s hesitation brings financial and propaganda repercussions. The day that the public wakes to the realisation that the Western countries are now controlled by a tiny fraction of one tiny tribe, the very worst individuals in that tribe, and that Western political and media elites are entirely in these creatures’ employ, will be the day the Zionist Reich begins to die. It will mean liberation not just for Palestinians, not just for Jews who will cease to be led into evil by the worst amongst them, but also for the West where enlightened self-interest and international co-operation and amity, we must fervently hope, will replace the unbelievable quasi-colonial system of today, where one, tiny, rogue nation runs the world, through its control of our evil elites.

Our Foreign Office reeks of hypocrisy
Tuesday 29 December 2009

David Miliband has brought Britain to a new low.

Tony Blair took us into an illegal war against a sovereign country – Iraq – without a UN resolution. Now Miliband wants to allow war criminals to walk freely in the streets of Britain.

The former Israeli foreign minister Tzipi Livni planned and sanctioned the bombing of Gaza, which killed and maimed thousands of innocent Palestinian women and children.

Israel is still preventing terminally sick Palestinian citizens from leaving Gaza for life-saving treatment in Egypt and preventing badly needed building material and equipment from entering Gaza to rebuild the thousands of homes that were destroyed by its bombing.

The United Nations independent inquiry found Livni and her government guilty of war crimes.

If it was right to bring Hitler’s fascists such as Goering to the Nuremberg war trials, if it was right to bring Bosnian Serb Radovan Karadzic to face war trials at the Hague, then it is right that six Israeli government officials whose country has been found guilty of war crimes should also face a court of law to account for their actions.

Once more our foreign policy has been dragged through the gutter. The stench of death still emanating from the rubble of the bombed city of Gaza is nothing compared to the stench of hypocrisy that comes from Miliband’s Foreign Office.

The continued siege of Gaza, and the absolute complicity in this vile act of collective punishment by an insanely evil racist despotism, of the Western powers, led by House Negro, Zionazi Manchurian Candidate and Confidence Man-in-Chief Obama, illustrates several truly disturbing developments. First, it is clear that Israel, by controlling the US and the West totally, in politics, the media and finance, now runs the world. The very bedrock of international law, the humanitarian laws against murderous barbarity and cruelty, Israel micturates on every day, or takes time out to defaecate on them, as their ‘morally perfect’ troops so often do when they infest Palestinian homes to hold the hapless inhabitants hostage. Not only is it plain that the barbarisation of Gaza is intended to be heightened, but on the Infested Territory of the West Bank (or, as the Zionazis call it with that lovely, reptilian, drawl of theirs- Joodeeeea, und Sammmmarria)a reign of terror against the resistance is being waged by the now open Quislings of Fatah, organised and paid for by the USA, operating on orders from Tel Aviv, communicated to the House Negro by his Boss, Rahm Emanuel.
So, there you have it. While the repulsive hypocrites of the West praise the rich boy rabble rioting in Tehran, ignoring the vastly greater pro-Government rallies of people, who in any case, are pencilled in to be obliterated soon, on the entirely mendacious grounds that the election in Iran was stolen, the people of Gaza are being slowly starved into submission for the crime of freely voting for Hamas. I am more and more convinced, as each atrocity is heaped on the next, as Yemen, Eritrea, Baluchistan and God knows where next, are added to the ‘free-fire zones’ where corpulent Yankee killers, sitting in comfort thousands of miles away, direct missiles from drones to obliterate another village, another score or so women and children, and where malice, race hatred, delight in murder and pitiless sadism all nauseatingly wedded to narcissistic egotism and protestations of ‘moral purity’ (perhaps we could fashion a sign, after Arbeit macht Frei’ for Gaza, perhaps ‘This Way Lies Moral Purity’)that the Zionazi Empire is the vilest in history. I see the Gazans as being sacrificial victims in some perverted Judaic ritual, the Amalek being tormented before their despatch, like the child victims of the Aztec God Tlaloc, who were tortured before death, their tears being seen as a precious offering to the ‘god’. Every day the fate of the Gazans and the pitiless cruelty displayed, plus the impossibility of rescuing them from their plight, and the sordid and evil apologias of the Zionazi rabble who justify it by blaming the victims, sends a message to the global majority that ‘This is a fate that awaits you, too, if you ever dare refuse to submit to your racial and civilizational betters, your Masters in the eternal empire of Judeo-Christian Western Civilization’. Israel is the ultimate apartheid state because it symbolises, and drives forward, the global apartheid project of the Western elites.

The effects of the brutal and vicious assault on Gaza, of a year ago, remain uncorrected, as a result of the illegal Israeli siege that continues, in defiance of international law. The international community thankfully contributed billions of dollars to restore some of the damage to the thousands of homes and infrastructure destroyed during the 22 day Israeli assault. However, Israel continues to deny the people of Gaza access to the building materials that are required to repair this massive destruction, besides other basic human needs.

Evidently, contributing the dollars is not enough or effective. What is required of the international community is to apply the necessary effective pressure on Israel to lift this illegal siege imposed on Gaza and bring about complete compliance with international law and effect the legal requirements in dealing with war crimes, as recommended by the Goldstone Report.
