Caitlin Johnstone: Losing Wolf F’n Blitzer


Not since Iraq has the U.S. empire allowed itself to get caught looking this brazenly evil in front of everyone. There’s only so much propaganda spin you can put on that.




Benjamin Nentanyahu talks to CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, May 24, 2011. (IsraelinUSA from Washington, D.C.)

They’re dropping bombs on a concentration camp full of children. THEY’RE DROPPING BOMBS ON A CONCENTRATION CAMP FULL OF CHILDREN.

Not in the past. Right now. They’re still doing it. They show no signs of stopping.

No part of opposing this should be remotely controversial.

They’re dropping bombs on a concentration camp full of kids. Even shitlibs and pseudo-leftists who get every other foreign policy issue wrong are managing to get this one right, it’s that obvious. Anyone getting this issue wrong can be permanently dismissed without any real loss.

No matter how much you talk about Oct. 7, it will still be a fact that Israel is raining military explosives upon a concentration camp full of children, and that it urgently needs to stop.

No matter how much you talk about how evil and bad Hamas are, it will still be a fact that Israel is raining military explosives upon a concentration camp full of children, and that it urgently needs to stop.

No matter how much you say the words “human shields”, it will still be a fact that Israel is raining military explosives upon a concentration camp full of children, and that it urgently needs to stop.

No matter how much you accuse Israel’s critics of loving terrorists, it will still be a fact that Israel is raining military explosives upon a concentration camp full of children, and that it urgently needs to stop.

No matter how much you accuse Israel’s critics of hating Jews, it will still be a fact that Israel is raining military explosives upon a concentration camp full of children, and that it urgently needs to stop.

No matter how many words you use or how much narrative spin you try to put on it or how many ad hominems you throw at the people criticizing what Israel is doing, it will still be a fact that Israel is raining military explosives upon a concentration camp full of children, and that it urgently needs to stop.

Yeah I’m gonna go ahead and assume that the people arguing that it’s necessary to keep dropping military explosives on a giant concentration camp full of children are on the side that will be judged negatively by history.

A huge amount of western depravity hides behind the unexamined assumption that killing people with bombs is somehow less evil than killing them with bullets or blades. By waging nonstop foreign bombing campaigns, the west desensitized the public to the reality of what bombs do.

Hamas are in the ambulances. Hamas are in the hospitals. Hamas are underneath the refugee camps. Hamas are behind the children. Maybe they’re just massacring civilians.

If a military power was just massacring thousands of civilians and then making up propagandistic lies to cover its massacres, would it look any different from what Israel’s actions and statements look like right now?

WE are the terrorists.

WE inflict violence and fear on civilian populations to advance political agendas.

WE murder babies.

WE massacre women and children.

The word “terrorism” has no meaning unless you apply it first and foremost to this murderous western civilization.

Not since Iraq has the U.S. empire allowed itself to get caught looking this brazenly evil in front of everyone. It’s always been the most murderous and depraved power structure on earth, but usually its psychopathy is more hidden and harder for the general public to understand.

And this is like if everyone was watching the Iraq invasion online in real time, with raw footage of all the civilians it’s killing flooding their social media feeds 24/7. There’s only so much propaganda spin you can put on that.

I’ve seen so many dead kids while gathering information about this massacre. Never seen so many dead kids in my life. I’m already at the point where I see kids around the neighborhood and just feel reflexively grateful that they’re standing up and moving and breathing with all their inside parts on the inside, like kids are supposed to be.

When the holocaust returned in the 21st century it came denouncing anti-semitism and wearing a Star of David.

If you’re among the millions of people who are coming to realize that the western political/media class have been lying to you about Israel-Palestine this entire time, you should probably be aware that they’ve been lying to you about every other foreign conflict as well.

Israel created Hamas, in the same way punching someone in the same place repeatedly creates a bruise. If you abuse a population with extreme aggression and deprive them of any peaceful recourse, you’re going to see violent factions emerge like a bruise on repeatedly struck flesh.

Believing you can get rid of violent resistance groups with bombs is like believing you can get rid of a bruise by punching it harder, or by switching from punching to hitting it with a bat. The more you abuse the population, the more you’re lending cause and legitimacy to the factions which endorse violent resistance to your abuses.

You don’t get rid of the bruise with more abuse, you get rid of the bruise by ceasing the abuse and doing everything you can to help heal the wound.

  1. I switched off Caitlin Johnstone when she obviously promoted Russia's propaganda, when it was raining bombs on Ukrainian children.

    2. I come , state my piece , usually with logical arguments, that are also held by many other people.

      You may or may not agree with my stand, but I don't go around launching Ad Hominem attacks on other commentators, unlike Leftie Wanker idiots like CK The Wumao, and Bruno.

      So Fuck You Bruno the Amoeba.

      Go lick some Hamas Anuses.

  3. Monsterball, you lowered your self esteem and any dignity you have left by acting as a defender and an apologist for the Zionists murderers. Your Zionist masters have committed war crimes by murdering innocent men, women and children in Gaza. Cowards only bombed hospitals, schools, buildings and ambulances full of innocent civilians because they cannot shoot back. And you are so brave to be sucking up to these murderers? And you felt so very proud by associating yourself with these murderers. Maybe you inherited the monsterball label from the deceased Monsterball Sr, but you can also get choked by your dentures while kissing and licking the asses of your zionist masters. Especially if they bonked you too.
