 The Zionist “narrative” 

 by José Blanco: Some time ago people began to talk about post-truth in the world. The Royal Academy made a precise meaning: “Deliberate distortion of a reality, which manipulates beliefs and emotions in order to influence public opinion and social attitudes.” Later, demagogues and other similar individuals believed that humans tell themselves their own story, or “narrative,” which includes a life goal, a promised land, an illusion that we believe directs our lives. It is possible to change this “narrative,” they say, through a political speech that sounds credible, built with a bag of post-truth, as suits the speakers of the speech. The belief in manipulation, through an ad hoc “narrative”, is in force throughout the world in the voice of the dominant groups. 

 This spurious belief does not take into account that people's ideas are formed mainly by the concrete life experience of people and, more importantly, by the experiences of communities and social groups. The collective experiences are sifted by these groups and a history and basic ideas are formed that these groups keep for themselves. The “narratives” disappear, which is why the attempt at manipulation is continuous.

  The “narrative” of the Zionist government about the murders it is committing in a tiny Gaza that it keeps surrounded, is shared by the dominant groups – and their subordinates – of the United States (EU), of Canada (which all the time hides among the faralá of the gringo skirts), and from several European countries. This “narrative” is impressive for its failed attempt at manipulation, for its radical falsehood, its obvious shamelessness, and its nonsense of continuing it without further ado. The planetary right has lost even the slightest notion of balance. The massive marches around the planet, which will continue to increase, fully prove this.

  Antonio Guterres, Secretary General of the UN, said it with the simplicity of a truth shared by (almost) everyone: “Hamas did not emerge from nowhere. The Palestinian people have been subjected to a suffocating occupation for 56 years.  

They saw their lands gradually filled with settlements, they were subjected to violence, their economies were stifled, people were displaced, their homes demolished. Their hopes for a political solution to their plight are fading.” So are the things. But the Zionist government launched false discursive firecrackers, said it was resigning from the UN, and has shouted against those, like Guterres, who contextualized the Hamas attack, called "terrorist" by the West: it turns out that this "narrative" includes the attempt to ban it. practice of putting into context, horizontal and historical, the facts that are to be understood. Amazing. But the pretension is so clumsy and absurd that things continue their course: the Zionist government sinks into total discredit. 

 A few days ago the main page of Middle East Eye, one of the most consulted portals about the Middle East, did not report, but rather issued a warning: in Gaza the slaughter of civilians is continuous, do something, it cried: "The number of Palestinians killed and missing exceeds the death toll of the Srebrenica genocide. More than 8 thousand dead or missing, presumably trapped under the rubble.” During the Bosnian War, between April 1992 and December 1995, the largest massacre on European soil since World War II occurred in Srebrenica, according to Wiki historical records. In Gaza we are seeing the beginnings of an outcome that will surpass that massacre. that massacre. 

 Hamas and the current massacre in Gaza are a consequence of the Zionist government of Israel's objective of ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people – a “crime without a name,” Winston Churchill called that crime – and of the policy of whistles and flutes in the Middle East. operated by the governments of Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Donald Trump and Joe Biden, in complete disagreement with each other, accompanied by the argument of bombs and murders against the “terrorism” that the United States invented as its enemy universal wildcard. In the last 15 days, the United States has launched airstrikes against pro-Iranian groups in eastern Syria, according to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, in response to around twenty strikes with drones and rockets against American military bases in Syria and Iraq. What are those bases doing there? Well, the US has them in more than fifty countries.

On September 22, 1967, after the Six-Day War, veteran anti-Zionist Israeli socialist Moshe Machover signed a public statement that said: “Occupation implies foreign rule. Foreign rule implies resistance. Resistance implies repression. Repression implies terror and counterterrorism. The victims of terror are mostly innocent people. Clinging to the occupied territories will turn us into a nation of murderers and murder victims."

'FIGHT FOR FREEDOM'
All art is political in the sense that it involves society in some way, either influencing it or influenced by it. But some works speak more directly to concerns related to human rights, corruption, class distribution, wealth or power. The painting is directly aimed at a political cause, endorsement or message

 

The created social motive; by Elizabeth H. Elys “Fight for Freedom” tells the world about the political prisoner Nadir Siguencia, a social activist who for decades continues to suffer savage persecution by the state. In captivity he was brutally tortured by his sadistic Canadian captors for more than a year, with courage he bravely resisted his painful experience fighting from the dungeons located around the province of Ontario for his freedom, a political right, liberation from slavery, power or the right to act, speak or think what one wants, Freedom in independence, Freedom in emancipation...

United Nations and the pages torn from its history

 

 United Nations and the pages torn from its history

by Oleg Yasinsky: The United Nations' last remaining raison d'être is to illustrate the absolute disregard of a select few for the opinions of others. The UN is no longer just an old worn-out and useless scarecrow for state criminals, but it is the mirror of the hypocrisy of today's "democracies." The meaning of the permanence in this organization of countries that persistently ignore its resolutions, without the slightest consequence for them, is not understood.

 

Decades of annual Security Council resolutions condemning the US blockade against Cuba and the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories have demonstrated the uselessness of the opinion of the majority of humanity in the face of the interests of a handful of owners of power and the mass media of information. Today, the international bureaucracy of the UN united by its own privileges, which for so many years built the appearance of a kind of planetary legal order, quickly becomes an accomplice to the crime due to its own ineffectiveness.

 

Erdogan on Gaza: "Uncivilized people who pretend to be civilized just watch this brutality"

Some kind-hearted executioners administer a sedative injection to the condemned man before his execution. The work of the UN today is very similar to this procedure.

 

To understand these contradictions of the UN, let's review some episodes of its recent history.

 

Let us remember, for example, that almost a year ago, in November 2022, the UN put on quite a show on a commissioned issue, that of the payment of reparations to Ukraine by Russia, adopting a resolution, demanding it. Which is a completely hypocritical decision. In recent decades, the main superpowers of the West have unleashed dozens of devastating wars, which destroyed entire countries and not only did they not pay a single cent in reparations, but also acquired as a trophy unlimited control over the human and natural resources of the conquered territories. . Instead of reparations, apologies or at least explanations, there were torrents of media lies, as in the case of "Saddam's chemical weapons", "Milosevic's crimes", "Gaddafi's terrorism", etc. And then... silence.

 

It is true that there is an exception. In the 1980s, when Nicaragua was the victim of US military aggression, the UN International Court of Justice accused the aggressor, the US, of 38,000 deaths as a result of the undeclared war and the destruction of civilian infrastructure. in Nicaragua, whose population was 3.5 million people. The UN condemned Washington to pay $17 billion in compensation. After 40 years, the US government refuses to make any payment and since then the UN has not said a word.

 

On December 17, 2021, when the United Nations General Assembly could still approve Russian projects, it adopted a resolution against the glorification of Nazism. 130 countries voted in favor of the document entitled "Combating the glorification of Nazism, neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to the intensification of contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance." 49 countries abstained. Only Ukraine and the US were against it.

 

The resolution "recommended" that countries take concrete, appropriate measures, "including legislative and educational measures, in accordance with their international human rights obligations, to prevent the revision of the results of the Second World War and the denial of crimes against humanity and war crimes committed during World War II."

 

The authors of this document strongly condemned any incidents related to the glorification of Nazism, in particular graffiti and pro-Nazi symbols, including on monuments to the victims of the Second World War. Does anyone anywhere in Europe still remember this document?

 

On the other hand, the Secretary General of the UN, António Guterres, announced this year that his organization would allocate a record amount of 250 million dollars to the fight against hunger. It would be a mistake to think that, in the impossible case of a perfectly equitable distribution of aid, each of the 339 million officially registered hungry people will receive no less than 70 cents. This amount would still have to cover the salaries and fees of officials in charge of the fight against hunger, airline tickets, mostly in business class, and travel expenses for all staff, in addition to press and advertising costs. possible agreements with belligerent groups in areas of armed conflict.

 

According to the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations), about a third of the world's population suffers from hunger or malnutrition. The increase in the number of hungry people was 10 million per year during the last decade, which, according to very conservative estimates, causes 12 million deaths per year, that is, at least one million people per month die from this cause.

 

The current world economic system is a war of annihilation. There is no more hybrid war than this one, in which the corporate-controlled press shows heartbreaking images of people dying of hunger only for publicity purposes by humanitarian organizations or to condemn the policies of certain governments in third world countries totally dependent on power. corporate.

 

Hunger on the planet is not only an economic weapon, but also a direct consequence of the destruction of the planet by the alchemy of money, which turns forests into deserts, rivers into garbage dumps, and flowered valleys into landfills. So that no one can interfere in this process, the same is being done with our consciousness.

 

Starving the "surplus" and unproductive part of the population is part of the project of a system that promotes and finances those same humanitarian and environmental organizations and that is used to giving us lessons on rights and democracy.

 

To conclude, a forgotten history of the UN, this one somewhat older. After the expulsion of the American invaders, in 1975 the Khmer Rouge came to power in Kampuchea. Apart from the monstrous experiment that was carried out with their own population and under the excuse of the "threat of Vietnamese expansionism", they carried out numerous provocations on the border with Vietnam, killing Vietnamese peasants. On December 25, 1978, the Vietnamese Army invaded Kampuchea and quickly overthrew Pol Pot's regime.

 

The international press, which at that time perhaps still retained some professionalism and decency, arrived there and showed the world mountains of skulls of the victims of the genocidal regime in Kampuchea. But because the Vietnamese invasion and overthrow of Pol Pot's government was "a flagrant violation of international law and the sovereignty of an independent country," the UN recognized the Khmer Rouge as a legitimate government for ten years, while its guerrillas in The jungles bordering Thailand were still fighting against the "Vietnamese occupiers."

 

If the UN tries to surprise us tomorrow, asking the State of Israel to apologize for all its "wrong resolutions" that have criticized it, we would not be surprised.
