Wicked Leaders Pretend to be Peacemakers
Evil is a force and righteousness is characteristic
of living humanity. They claim democracy but act like monsters of history never
open to reason and intellect. The US and Israel stockpiled plans to subdue the
holistic doctrine of peace, human rights, freedom, and justice and to entrench
mankind into unthinkable catastrophic wars of political and economic
domination. Historically those people and nations claiming lust for power and
economic prosperity; emboldens them to unleash crimes against smaller and weaker
nations without accountability. People’s demonstrations for peace and justice
and cries for help remain hollow voices buried without a trace. PM Netanyahu
demonstrates indifference to the US impulses for a ceasefire in Gaza and
restraint to invade Lebanon. Still, a reality check speaks otherwise of the
convergence of their understanding of broader strategic goals in the Middle
East. There is no rational argument to converge peace in the Middle East.
Western leaders utter dubious statements on principles of human equality, and
moral and institutional integrity when Russia is accused of bombing the
children’s hospitals in Kiyv and civilian hubs, it is a ‘crime against
humanity’ and ‘genocide.’ But when Israel bombs hospitals, places of worship,
and innocent civilians in Gaza, the US and the EU do not view it as a ‘crime
against humanity’ and alleged ‘genocide.’
The UNO, the ICC, and the ICJ blame Israel and the
US for direct complicity in these crimes against humanity. The US supplies all
weapons to Israel to kill innocent people and destroy Palestine and move onward
to attack Lebanon and beyond – the Arab world. After almost one year of
tragic war, millions are forcibly displaced, schools, hospitals, and places of
worship continued to be bombed, more than 41,000 innocent civilian women,
children, and elderly people of Gaza were killed by design, more than 91,000
were injured and some 16,000 or more children and women still buried under the
rubble call urgent attention of global humanity to ‘save the succeeding
generations from the scourge of war’, if there is any global
conscience and morality still alive and intact.
Favorite perversion sets the disguised morality:
“Netanyahu is not welcome to the White House”, said President Biden in July
2023, but in July 2024, Netanyahu was sitting with Biden at the White House.
They play with time and history. American strategic interest is complicit in
Israeli war machines to kill the top leadership of Hezbollah in Lebanon and mow
the lawn across Gaza enabling new settlers to occupy Gaza. Time is critical for
Arab-Muslim leaders to learn – what went wrong in Gaza and Lebanon. Le Parisien
-a French paper reports of a mole in Iran providing secret information to
Israel about the location of the late Hassan Nessarallah and his colleagues in
Beirut. The Israeli intelligence worked hard to target the killing of Hezbollah
leadership. Arab leaders should think of navigational change rather than
rituals of dead-ended thinking and practices. From impregnable truth to the
revelations of cyber attacks of pager and cellphone explosions in Lebanon; the
Saudis, Emirates, Qataris, and other oil-propelled phony prosperity satellites
should learn as for decades they are under the US-Israeli radar for more
catastrophic surprises to come. They import tampered foods, rigged cell phones,
and big American cars – all are ticking devices to undermine their mental and
physical well-being to THINK and live as normal human beings. Exhibiting the
new maps of Israeli plans at the UN General Assembly, PM Netanyahu envisioned
the ‘Greater Israel’ inclusive of the occupied West Bank – as
the unchallenging force of future-making. People and nations rejoice in truth
and peace, not in evil and horrors of wars and pains of devastation and killing
of fellow human beings. Netanyahu is an actor performing beyond his capacity
and misleading the people of Israel to fake triumphs and glory – the end of
human morality and integrity as military conquests could end Israeli’s freedom
– the Law of Nature. Pernicious consequences could help to boost Netanyahu’s
numbers of popularity to stay in power but unsustainable warmongering could
destroy the nation and its freedom. Crises unite people of diversity and
Lebanon and Palestine are the geopolitics of Arab-Muslim leadership but there
are no Arab-Muslim leaders to challenge the deception of PM Netanyahu as they
maintain friendly relationships. The Arab-Muslim leaders live in the dark ages,
just puppets of the US. Israeli leaders’ plans knew the psychological make-up
of Arab-Muslim leaders making fiery speeches for their own survival and posing
no challenge to the US-Israeli alliance to dominate and control the
oil-exporting Arab Middle East. Please see: “How Arab Leaders Betray Islam and Defy the Logic of Political
Change, Peace and Security.”
America and Israel Violate the Sanctity of Earth,
Peace and its Consequences could make them Obsolete
All humanity comes from dust and goes back to dust.
Life is a trial of deeds having a beginning and an end to all human lives.
Those bombing the Earth and killing fellow human beings are abnormal criminals
bombing their own ‘Mother Earth’. To avert the consequences of their wrong
thinking and actions, the US and Israel would go beyond all the red lines and
call “ death to Arabs”, to annihilate the people of Palestine,
Lebanon, and other Arabian countries. The Earth is a Divine hub of human Life,
Survival, and Trust, Those Bombing and Destroying it are mentally deficient and
defy the sanctity of Divine Truth. It looks as if the US and Israeli leaders do
not believe in God, life and death, and final accountability. Earth is
a “trust” to mankind for its existence, sustenance of life,
survival, progress, and future-making. Wherever there is trust, there
must be accountability. The Divine warning (Chapter 7: 56: The
Quran), warns: Do no mischief on the Earth after it hath been set in
order, but call on God with fear and longing in hearts; For the Mercy of God is
always near to those who do good. The Divine Message (Quran:40:64),
clarifies:
It is God Who made for you the Earth
as a resting place and the sky as a canopy; And has given you shape and made
your shapes beautiful, And has provided for your Sustenance, of things pure and
good; Such is God your Lord. So Glory to God, The Lord of the Worlds.
And killing of innocent people is prohibited in the
Ten Commandments (Torah):
‘Thou shalt not kill’ (Exod. 20:13;
also Deut. 5:17). Jewish law views the shedding of innocent blood very
seriously, and lists murder as one of three sins (along with idolatry and
sexual immorality), that fall under the category of yehareg ve’al ya’avor –
meaning “One should let himself be killed rather than violate it.
Global Mankind and its Search for Peace and Conflict
Management is Crushed by the Warmongers
To glance ahead it seems that the Western world
failed to see a dreadful tragic history in the making of the end of time and
the loss of ingenuity to understand the consequences of the naive egoism of
Israeli leadership making war an instrument of territorial expansion and
conquest across Palestine, Lebanon, and the larger Arab Middle East. A
rationally arguable conclusion to the war on Gaza was perceivable if there was
a unified political-military challenge to the Israeli plans by the Arab-Muslim
world. That landscape appears morally, intellectually, and politically bankrupt as
a scum floating on a torrent of naive puppets and discredited leaders. The
American-Israeli collaborative war on Gaza and its immediate consequences made
the Western world and all of its institutions shamefully redundant and void in
the 21st-century global norms of civility, human rights, freedom, justice, and
safety of civilians. Are the Israeli leaders driven by the lust for American
weapons and economic power to conquer Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, and other Arab
nations? Those doing so are not conscious of their own end game. PM Netanyahu
and his extremist regime would try to put an end to the freedom of Palestine.
Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria, and much more are the experimental labs
for that end game. Perpetuated wickedness denies blind terror,
religious awe, and killings of people across Gaza. Are We, the People not
witnessing a cataclysmic bloodbath being unleashed by continuous aerial
bombardments and destruction of lives and habitats across Gaza and Lebanon? The
US and West European leaders would confer with Israeli planned displacement of
Palestinians to other parts of the world. We, the People reject the violent
assumptions of militarization and egoistic triumphs by acts of war and
genocidal plans in Gaza and invasion and occupation of Lebanon. Peter Koenig (“Israel’s Killing Fields. Albert Einstein‘s Foresight?”
Global Research: 11/12/2023), elaborates on how Albert Einstein viewed the
emerging conflict in his foresight:
Did Einstein foresee, or sense,
Palestine becoming Israel’s killing fields, from 1948 forward, to explode in a
worldwide tolerated, even supported, and encouraged democide/genocide, just
three-quarters of a century after the birth of Israel? Does Netanyahu, his
entourage – and the West – realize that the 75 years of Apartheid, of ethnic
cleansing of Palestinians and of wiping the Gaza Strip and eventually all the
Palestinian land off the map is comparable to, or worse than the “Holocaust”?
