From Khalid Amayreh in occupied
East Jerusalem
In his rabid efforts to impose socialism on independent
Ukrainian farmers (the Kulaks), Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin
ordered his Red Army to completely cut off Ukraine from the
rest of the world. All roads were sealed, all border crossings
were closed. Nothing was allowed to go into or come out
of the country. Farmers were searched and looted of food and fuel.
Then, soon, Ukrainians began dying of hunger, cold and sickness
in great numbers.
The genocide reached its heights in the winter of 1932-1933
when Stalin's Jewish aide, the notorious mass murderer Lazar
Kaganovitch, was dispatched to the Ukraine to accelerate
the process of extermination of millions of farmers, middle-class
businesspeople and intellectuals. By this time, Ukrainians,
facing one of the harshest man-made famine in history, were
forced to eat pets, dogs, boots and belts, plus bark and roots.
According to some sources, parents even ate infant children.
It is true the situation in Gaza is not identical to the great
Ukrainian famine. However, it is also true that the
present nightmare in Gaza is menacingly exacerbating by
the hour and if the world doesn't stop the Nazi-minded
Israeli leadership sooner than later, Gaza will certainly
become an updated version of the Ukrainian genocide.
We must not take chances. Ehud Barak and Ehud Olmert,
as well as the rest of the ruling class in Israel are more or
less trying to emulate Kaganovitch and Genrich Grigorivic
Yagoda, another Soviet Jewish mass murder who probably
killed or caused the death of more people than Hitler ever did.
But unlike Kaganovitch and Yagoda, who didn't seek
to hide their genocidal campaigns, Olmert is lying through
his teeth about Israel's genocidal designs against Gaza's
1.5 million blockaded inhabitants. His claims that Israel will
not allow a humanitarian crisis in Gaza are as valid as a
veteran whore's pretensions about her unscathed chastity.
There is no doubt that Israel is effecting a slow-motion genocide
in Gaza. This is evidenced from the shocking state of dilapidation
and destitution overwhelming the tormented enclave which has
been reduced to the largest open-air concentration
camp in the world.
According Karen Abu Zayd, Commissioner-General for
UNRWA, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for
Palestinian Refugees in the Near East, the closure of
Gaza by Israel is without precedent.
"Palestinians are effectively incarcerated. The overwhelming
majority can't leave or enter Gaza. Without fuel and spare
parts, public health conditions are declining steeply as water
and sanitation services struggle to function. The electricity
supply is sporadic and has been reduced further along with
fuel supply in these past days. UNICEF reports that the partial
functioning of Gaza City's main pumping station is effecting the
supply of 600,000 people. Medication is in short supply and
hospitals are paralyzed by power failures and the shortage of
fuel for generators. Hospital infrastructure and essential pieces
of equipment are breaking down at an alarming rate, with limited
possibility of repair or maintenance as spare parts are not
available….Concrete is in such short supply that people are
unable to make graves for their dead. Hospitals are handing out
sheets as funeral shrouds."
Abu Zayd is a great human being and she deserves all praise
for her heroic efforts to mobilize the international community
to stop the Gaza catastrophe before it blows up irreversibly in
the face of the world.
However, it is amply clear that here measured description
of the Gaza nightmare is a huge understatement of reality,
because Gaza is dying thanks to the sustained genocidal
blockade the children, grand children and great grand-children
of the holocaust are imposing on these helpless and thoroughly
tormented Palestinians.
On Wednesday, 23 January, tens of thousands of penned-in
and starved Gazans poured into Egypt after gunmen blasted
through the Israeli-built wall separating the Egyptian and
Palestinian halves of Rafah. One TV station described the
moving outpouring of humanity in Rafah as the "world's
greatest prison escapade."
The scene of men, women and children pouring through
the breaches on foot, by car, or in donkey carts to buy food
and other staples and essential goods suggested that Gaza is
really facing an extremely difficult situation bordering on
an attempted genocide.
The frozen indignation had to been vented.
The powder keg had to go off. Only the imbeciles,
like George Bush, were surprised by the turn of events.
This is what happens when you pen-in a million and a
half human beings in crowded prison, without food,
without fuel, without electricity and without hope, while telling a morally-desensitized world that "I am not going to allow
a humanitarian crisis in Gaza."
As the wall came tumbling down in Gaza, it is imperative that
Palestinians and their supporters, the millions of free-minded
men and women around the world, including many
conscientious Jews who value freedom and justice,
don't underestimate the evil intentions and designs
of the Zionist entity.
Israel, an evil state ruled by evil politicians who have no
regard for morality and humanity. As such, this state will not
just sit down and let the Palestinians enjoy a rare moment of
triumph, however small and costly it may be.
Barak and Olmert are simply too nefarious and too Satanic
to allow a smile to appear on the innocent faces of Gaza children.
This is why it is very likely that Barak, a man who possesses
the evilness of Adolph Hitler and the callousness of Joseph Stalin,
will try to carry out a new massacre or spate of assassinations
to "balance the formula."
Indeed, Israel has already said that it will tighten the
blockade of Gaza and is pressuring the Egyptian
government to collude with Israel in order to further
torment and starve the helpless Gazans.
Israel simply wants to make sure that Palestinians suffer
and die as quietly as possible in order not to provoke the moral
conscience of the world. Israel thinks, probably rightly, that a
quiet genocide is an unwept genocide that would eventually
vanish into oblivion and allow the perpetrators to get away
with minimal incriminations.
But, nay, we must never allow ourselves to suffer
quietly or indeed die quietly. We must leave no stone
unturned until we mobilize the conscience of the world against
this evil state that claims to be Jewish but is thinking , behaving
and acting like the Gestapo, SS and Wehrmacht.
We must mobilize all free men and women in the four corners
of the world in order to prevent Israel from turning Gaza into
another Auschwitz, another Treblinka, another Bergen Belsen
… another Theresienstadt. We must cross all the red lines if
necessary in order to prevent a possible Gaza
holocaust from occurring.
The heroic men and women who blasted the wall of shame in
Rafah deserve all admiration. We salute them for their
sublime act of moral defiance in the face of brute force
and moral callousness.
We salute them for flying in the face of cool political
calculations. May they live to see the banners of freedom
flutter Occupied Jerusalem.
Finally, it is important that we, the peoples of the world who
refuse to be enslaved by the promiscuous New World Order,
understand that the battle of Gaza is everyone's battle.
It is a battle for the soul of humanity, it is a battle for the
moral conscience of the world. It is a battle for light versus
darkness, justice versus oppression and truth versus mendacity.
It is a battle that we must not allow ourselves to lose.

You and those who make hate speech like yours are the true heirs of Adolph Hitler.
ReplyDeleteWhere do you mention the thousands of rockets deliberately aimed from Gaza on civilian centers?
Oh, you forgot. Heil!
Oh the poor people of Israel?
ReplyDeleteor have you forgotten the people of Palestine that have suffered for the last 60 years.
like I have said many times before The people of Palestine or any people that have legitimate rights to lands and homes have a right to defend themselves and give resistance.
The people of Palestine need to be fully supported for their efforts not treated unfairly by the world that allows Israel to continue on their murderous ways.
The only ones full of hate are those corporate whores who fill their pockets from the blood of the innocent people of Palestine And The so called state of Israel who claims to be a Democracy ...now that's funny
Israel does not want peace as you can see by the number of resolutions they break all the time, the continued human rights abuses, and so on - so how long do u expect talking to happen?
I never said the Palestine people have not suffered. I acknowledge their suffering. But when you say Israel is the cause, you are knocking at the wrong door. The cause is that the Arab world would rather fight and keep Palestinians suffering than acknowledge the legitimacy of Israel as a state for the Jewish people.
ReplyDeleteThe national aspirations of Palestinians can be realized very quickly if not for the fact that they would rather not have a state than have one alongside Israel. It reminds me of early court cases in the segregated south of the us, where white people would refuse the opportunity of having a community swimming pool of blacks were allowed to use it. That is the same apartheid attitude of much of the arab world.
When having a state of their own is more important than destroying Israel, that state will come into being.
for a state that calls it self a Democracy would not claim this is a place for Jews and then proceed to people different because of race.
ReplyDeleteThis is not a religious race, or even a cultural race...It's the human Race!
And no Israel is not the only one responsible for the crises in Gaza and Palestine.
They are mainly to blame because they carry out the crimes and so on, but out right blame goes to the Zionist fuckers and the British for even giving them a mandate. Then blame has to go to the United States for all the millions and millions given each year that should go to Americans. And lastly to the world governments that are cowards that allow the Jewish lobby groups control their governments on anything concerning the Middle East and praise goes out to all who speak out against Israel!
