Maybe UN could help Kamala differentiate between war and genocide in Gaza
During
her campaign for president, Kamala Harris has been loath to comment on
the ongoing 13 month Israeli genocide in Gaza. But when interviewers or
protesters raise the genocide issue, Harris is quick to say she’s ‘doing
everything I can to achieve a ceasefire in the ‘Gaza war.’
Bunk.
She fully supports her boss sending over 50,000 tons of death weapons
to obliterate any semblance of life in Gaza’s mere 139 square miles.
Schools, universities, hospitals, water and sewerage facilities, most
housing gone. She calls that weaponry ‘self-defense in Israel’s war
against Hamas.’ She promises to continue her boss’s genocide policies in
Gaza if she becomes president, tho she’s erased the G word from her
vocabulary and moral conscience.
Sure would be helpful if Kamala would peruse the new UN report titled “Genocide as colonial erasure,” detailing how Israel seeks to “eradicate the
very existence of the Palestinian people in Palestine. This genocidal
project, is now metastasizing to the West Bank, including East Jerusalem.”
The
report was issued by Francesca Albanese, the U.N. Special Rapporteur on
the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied
since 1967. Albanese makes an urgent appeal to the international
community to impose a full arms embargo and sanctions on Israel until
the genocide of Palestinians is halted. She calls on Israel to accept a
permanent ceasefire. She demands that Israel, as required by
international law and U.N. resolutions, withdraw its military and
colonists from Gaza and the West Bank, including East Jerusalem.
Albanese
seeks reactivation of UN’s Special Committee Against Apartheid to
address the situation in Palestine including possible suspension of
Israel’s membership in the U.N.
Her
report doesn’t’ just charge Israel with genocide. It reveals it in
excruciating bloody detail. One of the most ghoulish is Israel’s forcing
hundreds of thousands of Palestinians into 3 safe zones, but once there
begins attacking them and demanding they move to new safe zones. That’s
a death march that dwarfs the Japanese Death March of US POW’s on
Bataan in WWII.
Last
May Israel invaded Rafah, driving nearly a million Palestinians into
uninhabitable wastelands of raw sewage, rotting bodies and endless
rubble.
Over 90% of Gaza’s 2,300,000 Palestinians have been displaced under “horrendous conditions.”
The report details nearly a hundred Israeli massacres.
The report describes how Israel uses “indiscriminate aerial and sniper fire”to repeatedly attack critical aid distribution sites, tent encampments, hospitals and markets.
Hundreds
of aid workers and journalists have been murdered to keep aid from
starving, sick Palestinians and keeping the genocide out of public view.
There’s
more, much more in the UN report that Kamala should read before she
makes another grotesque pledge to keep arming Israel with the weapons
she terms merely defense after she enters the White House.
Of
course, at the rate US weaponry, UN vetoes protecting Israeli genocide,
and endless proclamations of total Israeli support, all 2,300,000
Palestinians in Gaza may be dead and gone by the time a President Harris
is inaugurated next January 20.
