3 thoughts on “Israeli settlers carry out attacks in East Jerusalem, West Bank”
Hmmm
Israelis, that is to say any Israelis that are currently residing outside the UN mandated borders from 1948 are there in direct violation of international law. Therefore they cannot be “settlers”. They are invaders, squatters, thieves, and obviously all criminals etc. The term settler has long been employed by the US media and Israel in a transparent and ultimately futile attempt to to convince Americans that actions of these criminals are some how akin to the pioneers who “settled” the old west. But the term “settler” implies a legitimacy to their actions that simply does not exist under international law recognized by virtually the entire world outside of Israel. The US media in particular in fact aiding and abetting criminals by persisting in continuing this charade when discussing Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestine. It is high time that the media is held accountable.
Thanks DDearborn, I have been saying this for years
DDearborn #1. Thanks for your thoughtful posts. The most important issue raised here is the American people holding the American media accountable. High time was more than century ago. The American media dragged the American people into WWI, and before that the Spanish-American War.
America has for a very long time been a depraved and vicious state.
America cannot be rehabilitated from that depraved and vicious state unless the American media is held accountable.
If the American media is held accountable, all of the existing major corporations would be found unfit to exercise the responsibility to comprehensively and honestly inform the American people. It also seems possible that they will be found to have committed crimes, including treason.
There are obstacles in the way of the American people calling the American media to account, including:
1. corruption of the executive branches of government at national, state, and intra-state levels;
2. corruption of the legislative branches of government at national, state, and intra-state levels;
3. corruption of the judiciary at all levels.
Apart from these obstacles, – I won’t make that silly joke.
I haven’t forgotten the poor Palestinians, but they haven’t a hope in hell until the American people call their media and all of their public institutions to account.
From the comfort of the other side of the world, I can shoot my mouth off, but it really has become that simple. Peace and a decent life for Palestinians and all abused people everywhere – including America! – depends on the American people calling their media and all of their public institutions to account.
Why not discuss that in depth in polite language at The Ugly Truth?
