Western leaders and institutions have brought themselves into unprecedented disrepute over their complicity in the genocide against the Palestinian people. This is all the more amplified by the NATO proxy war in Ukraine.
Not only is Western complicity in war crimes exposed but also what is on display to the whole world is the shocking double standards and hypocrisy of the Western leaders. These people are liars, psychopaths and criminals.What we are witnessing is something profoundly historic: the seminal collapse of Western images of presumed democratic and moral authority.
All across the globe, huge public protests are mounting against the appalling slaughter of civilians in Gaza and the West Bank by Israeli state forces. European and North American cities, including Washington DC, London, Berlin and Paris, are seeing millions of citizens marching in protest, not only against the Israeli state crimes but also - equally important - the depraved culpability of their own governments in facilitating the genocidal destruction underway of the Palestinian people.
The popular outrage is even being expressed by ordinary staffers,
diplomats and other
workers within governments and parliaments. Protests by workers have blocked ports from shipping Western weapons to Israel. Journalists within Western media corporations are also
denouncing the bias of their organizations, complaining - rightly - that the compromised news coverage is aiding and abetting the genocide.
U.S. President Joe Biden and other Western leaders are being heckled in public for their complicity in genocide.
Among the protesters are Jewish organizations and individuals who survived the Nazi holocaust.Adding to the groundswell of public anger is the reactionary response of Western institutions claiming that protests are illegitimate. The authorities have tried - and failed - to ban marches based on the reprehensible claim that the protesters are terrorist sympathizers and anti-semitic. Such smearing of millions of ordinary citizens who have mobilized to condemn genocide is only further incensing contempt towards Western governments and media.
Comment: Killing Palestinians benefits Hamas recruitment. That's it. The primary concern.
