Ukraine proxy war and US-Israeli onslaught of civilian populations in the Gaza strip are the two latest examples of western binary mind and the double standard in international relations. Two years after the launch of Russian military special operation to stop NATO’s expansion eastwards and the denazification of Kiev regime established 10 years ago by the United States and its proxy European Union, and more than four months after the US-Israeli military campaign in occupied Palestine aimed at extermination and annihilation of Palestinians, the entire world discovers the pervasive western propaganda and how its mainstream media manufactured biased narrative when it comes to these two conflicts. During its past endless wars of aggression in Iraq, in Serbia, in Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, as worthy heirs of Josef Goebbels’s methods and techniques of propaganda, the western propaganda thanks to subservient mass media fed by narratives manufactured especially by pervasive intelligence services and numerous agencies specialized in the psychological warfare, whose main objective, brain whitewashing was working to demonize the enemy, to create the image of hatred leaders and to manufacture consent in public opinion. Before the advent of the internet, the west, through its powerful news agencies, had the full control of information and the monopole to create narratives and stories serving to legitimize its military campaigns. The advent of the web was a game changer as everyone can research and collect his proper source of information thanks to the multiplication and proliferation of independent sources of information in order to form his proper opinion concerning the military conflicts waged by the West. Thanks to the founder of Wikileaks, Julian Assange, the US crimes in Iraq was leaked and the public opinion discovers the horrors, the brutality, the cruelty and the barbarity of the West established as a giver of lessons of morality to the world. Today, thanks to abundant independent sources of information every minded person, watching or listen to the mainstream media is able to discover and to distinguish by himself the true from the false and the biased narratives concerning the western proxy war in Ukraine and the US-Israeli crimes in occupied Palestine.

Netanyahu’s « peace » plan for Gaza
It is surprising to see International networks giving the floor to notorious war criminal like this scum who still continue to lecture the world about the peace in Gaza, after his army supported by the US armada slaughtered more than 20000 Gazans, mostly children and elderly, destroyed civilian infrastructures, schools, hospitals, and starving the civilian populations of the Gaza Strip as his place is not in International news but the images of his interrogation by a prosecutor of the International criminal Court, lodged in tiny cell in the Hague prison in case if there is an international justice worthy of the name. The word of peace in Gaza didn’t cross the mind of this war criminal who rather think about Great Israel from Judea to Samaria by cleansing the Gaza strip from its local populations and replacing them by Jewish colonizers coming from elsewhere. To make believe that he is a man of peace, this war criminal resorted to comparison between Israel, Germany and Japan. It is true Netanyahu is correct by setting this comparison as Fascist government of Netanyahu is a true copy of Nazi Germany and fascist Japan during the WWII. Concerning the de radicalization, it is worth nothing that Israeli populations and the ideology the Greater Israel that drives its extremist jews supporting Netanyahu should be firstly de radicalized before de radicalization of Hamas which was and is the logical answer to apartheid policy of the Jewish state.
While European Union is slavishly aligned with Washington in its support to Israeli genocidal campaign in the Gaza Strip, discordant and courageous voice has been taken by the spanish PM Pedro Sanchez expressing his “serious doubt” that Israel was in compliance with international humanitarian law while waging war on the Palestinian group, given the imagery coming from the enclave and the “growing numbers of children dying” Sánchez was speaking at the end of a two-day visit to Israel, the Palestinian territories and Egypt with de Croo. This critical stance of Sanchez vis a vis far right Israeli government supported by European Union member states and the United States is uttered not only by the Spanish PM but also by rotational incumbent president of the EU till December 31, 2023 before taking over by Belgium from January 1, 2024. Sánchez also called for European Union recognition of a Palestinian state, saying Spain might do so on its own. At odds with other members of the EU which are all under the control of powerful Jewish pro-Israeli lobby, controlling the mainstream media, turning blind eye to Israeli war crimes, genocide and crimes against humanity by committing mass killing against disarmed civilian populations in the Gaza strip and the systematic destruction of civilian infrastructure, hospitals, schools, this is the first time European leader publicly and implicitly recognizes that Netanyahu’s government is bluntly violating the International humanitarian law except he was not demanding reparations for Palestinians by holding accountable Israeli civil and military leadership that should be trying before the International criminal Court especially created by the West to punish the leaders refusing to kneel to western diktat and to sell their nations and states at lower prices. It is worth nothing that the so called International community, that is the Collective West, didn’t hesitate to instrumentalize the International justice, by creating a special tribunal the Hague war crime tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, set up in 1993 to put on trial and hold accountable the late Serb leader, Slobodan Milosevic prosecuted for his purported crimes war committed against Bosnians. This time, by comparing Milosevic’s so called war crimes and crimes against humanity with Israeli war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Gaza Strip, one can say without hesitation, Milosevic was war criminal apprentice, a choirboy. When we speak about International justice, one has to wonder which kind of International justice we are speaking about.
Erdogan criticized the United Nations as ineffective organization and the 15- nation Security Council including five members enjoying veto right, by turning blind eye to the suffering of the Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip. This international organization created in 1945 in the aftermath of the WWII in the footsteps of deceased League of Nations created by the victors of the WWI, is not a neutral body working for the peace in the world, it is but a mere tool into the hands of colonialist and imperialist West, used as legal cover to maintain unfair International order and legitimization of western hegemonic and endless wars against weak and nations coveted for their underground wealth and their strategic locations. Let us take Libyan example showing how the United Nations and the Security Council are puppet of the West supported by its proxies in the Middle East, in Africa and Latin America were giving free hand to NATO to destroy the then prosperous African nation and to murder its longtime leader, Kadaffi who, in his remarkable address to the United Nations in 2009 during the world body’s 64th General Assembly in New York, called for an African seat on the Security Council, waving a copy of the UN charter, denouncing the permanent setup of the Security Council which he says encourages the treatment of other countries as “second-class citizens”.“It is political feudalism for those who have a permanent seat … It should not be called the Security Council, it should be called the terror council. It did not provide us with security but with terror and sanctions,” he said as he ripped a page out of the charter in a show of defiance.
Adding “Permanent is something for God only. We are not fools to give the power of veto to great powers so they can use us and treat us as second-class citizens … Veto power should be annulled,” he added before tossing the UN charter over his shoulder.
Among his demands, he called for the relocation of the United Nations headquarters to Libya to avoid jet lag and insecurity in reference to the September 11, 2001 al-Qaeda attack in New York.
Gaddafi wanted the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King to be thoroughly investigated and proposed that Israel and the Palestine be transformed into a single state called Isratine. He called for the trial of those who “caused mass murder” in Iraq. He demanded 7.7 trillion dollars as reparation for colonialism in Africa.
No one is fooled by Erdogan’s yelling as his country, Nato member state, supported the West in the destruction of Libya and even he was helping to destroy Syria and tried to do the same thing through NO FLY ZONE opposed this time by the 2 permanent members of the Security Council, Russia and China.
Which kind of “second war of independence” ? Israel was not a country occupied by foreign forces, it was artificially and illegally created by Britain promising through Balfour declaration homeland for the Jewish people living in European countries. But the question that begs, under what right allowing Britain to grant the Jewish a land else countries ? it is worth reminding in the same period Britian was promising a state for the Jewish in Palestine, it was refusing to the Irish their own state and their own republic by crushing the riots and confrontations lasting from 1916 to 1919. The easter rising led by revolutionary Connolly proclaiming the independence of Ireland was crushed by 160000 British soldiers. After France defeat in Sedan in 1870 and the loss of Alsace Lorraine to Germany, the rally cry of the French was the reintegration of occupied territories into French republic. Why denying to Palestinians the right to fight for their land? The main argument used by founders of Israeli state in 1948 supported by the West and even the Stalin’s USSR, the Shoah and the massacre of 6 million of jews by nazi regime during the WWII. One can retort the mass killing of jews occurred on the European continent, not in the Middle east, why Palestinians have to pay heavy price for crimes committed far away from their land by the Europeans ? If the west feels guilty about Jewish tragedy during the WWII, North America and European have a grand space, why France, UK, Germany, USA didn’t grant the jews a land inside their own territories in order to create their own state? Why precisely in Palestine after stealing Palestinian land ? Netanyahu’s “second war of independence” is humbug because the Irish who were fighting for their independence since 1916 were indigenous people established there since very longtime. Algerian war of independence is a real and genuine war of independence by expulsing the French colonizers after 132 years of colonization. What Netanyahu’s “second war of independence” is but a war to achieve and perform a Zionist ideology consisting of perpetuating the occupation of Palestinian land and driving its populations out of their remaining tiny territory
“I just want to go back to the opportunity to orchestrate […] at least a new security architecture in the region… And this, I think, is the ultimate goal of this war. And we have to make sure that this opportunity that we got at such a high price – that we do not lose this opportunity, and, hopefully, we will not lose it, and make sure that we get the most out of this horrific and terrible attack of Hamas,” said Prof. Col. (ret.) Gabi Siboni. this warmonger pundit supporter of Netanyahu’s far right government is willing to reshape the map of the Middle East after exterminating, 2,1 million Gazans. This kind of allegations are uttered following each Israeli-Arab conflict since 1967. The Jewish state established on the Palestinian land with the complicity of Britain aimed at controlling the first oil field in Kirkuk(Iraq) is too weak to reshape the map of the Middle east and to wipe out of the map the Palestinian resistance. It is the weakness and the comatose state of Arab regimes that make believe Israel so powerful. Hamas’s attack shows that Israel like its masters in Washington and in Europe is a tiger with feet of clay according to Mao Tsé Tung. contrary to misleading appearances the Israeli onslaught in Gaza is not a show of strength as the mass killing in the Gaza Strip are not Hamas militants but defenceless Gazans. Israel like its master in The West appears to be powerful with the weak countries but weak with the countries well armed equipped with hypersonic missiles nuclear weapons like Russia, China, North Korea and Iran. Israel has no enough strength to reshape the map of the Middle East, Only generalized war in the region could set up political map similar to the WWI reshaping the map of Europe and the Middle east after the collapse of the three old Empires: Ottoman, Russian and Austria Hungary followed by the demise of the Jewish state in Palestine.
As was rightly stated by the General Secretary of the United Nations, Gueteres, Israel is not ready to abide to the numerous resolutions voted by the United Nations and allow the Palestinians to create their own state according to the International law. Gueteress blamed Israel for violating the Humanitarian International law by committing mass killing of the Palestinian civilians rising to more than 5000 victims including more than 2000 children not to mention the full destruction of infrastructures, not to mention the embargo leading to the starving of thousands of Gazans etc. Israel and its western backers continue to call through their subservient mainstream media, the right of Israel to defend itself. Only a crazy man or senile like the man occupying of the White house can utter that kind of nonsense. The current Arab states in the Middle East, emerged in the same time than the Jewish states, following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and the Accords of the infamous Sykes-Picot and Versailles treaty, aimed at dividing this region between the two colonialist powers, the British Empire and France, seem to be inert sinking into a comatose state due to their servile dependence of the United States and Europe. They are seeing the Palestinians slaughtered by the Jewish state without any effective reactions to help their so called brothers and neighbours. Yet, they have a fearsome weapon able to shame the western backers of their protected state, this weapon is the oil which can be used like in 1973 following Yon Kippour war. It suffices to turn off the tap, cut off embargoing the oil to Europe for only one week, and you will see how Israel and its western backers will become hysteric after depriving them from the very source feeding their industries and their dependent economy. The African states which were suffering centuries of pillage of their agricultural and mineral wealth caused by the western colonization, similar to today Palestinians oppression by the West and its creature, can contribute to kneel the butchers of Gaza Strip by embargoing the raw materiels used by European processing industries to produce commodities for domestic market. The idea that Africa countries could help Palestinians in their struggle against Israel was uttered by the late revolutionary Burkinabe leader Thomas Sankara during his speech ahead the General Assembly of the united Nations on October 4, 1984, telling the present delegations, such statement of burning news must be meditated “My country is the essence of all the miseries of peoples, a tragic synthesis of all the suffering of mankind but also, and above all, the synthesis of the hopes of our struggles. That is why I speak out on behalf of the sick who are anxiously looking to see what science can do for them–but that science has been taken over by the gun merchants. My thoughts go to all those who nave been affected by the destruction of nature, those 30 million who are dying every year, crushed by that most fearsome weapon, hunger.
As a soldier, I cannot forget that obedient soldier who does what he is told, whose finger is on the trigger and who knows that the bullet which is going to leave his gun will bring only a message of death.
Lastly, I speak out in indignation as I think of the Palestinians, whom this most inhuman humanity has replaced with another people, a people who only yesterday were themselves being martyred at leisure. I think of the valiant Palestinian people, the families which have been splintered and split up and are wandering throughout the world seeking asylum. Courageous, determined, stoic and tireless, the Palestinians remind us all of the need and moral obligation to respect the rights of a people. Along with their Jewish brothers, they are anti-Zionists.”
What Sy Herch is reporting is not a scoop that Israel would turn Gaza into Hiroshima. Over the past two decades Palestinian territories had already been turned into Hiroshima without Little Boy atomic bomb following every Israeli onslaught. Palestinian territories and in particular Gaza are the only sites turned into Hiroshima as the countries victims of the US bloody wars since the end of the WWII have already been turned into Hiroshima. It is worth reminding that the launch of atomic bombs on August 6 and 9, 1945 on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were made on experimental basis serving to produce more powerful atomic bombs destined to wipe out 76 major cities inside the USSR. In the collective imagination, Hiroshima became a legend making believe that atomic weapon is most destructive and the most deadly than conventional weapons, which it is not true. One can remember that Tokyo months ago before Hiroshima and Nagasaki had been turned into Hiroshima without atomic bomb. German city, Dresden, had been turned into Hiroshima without atomic weapon. By using biological weapons, Agent Orange containing dioxin, Napalm and other biological weapons prohibited by the Biological weapons Convention(BWC) created in 1972. In Bao Loc (Lâm Dông Province), a welcoming centre for dioxin-poisoned children (an orange agent sprayed through the Vietnamese forests during the war. Gaza is the latest territory turned into Hiroshima but all countries invaded and attacked by the US and its vassals chiefly in the Middle have already been turned into Hiroshima. Hersh who witnessed the US bloody and destructive wars is aware that Gaza is not the only territory turned into Hiroshima and the carpet bomb launched by B52 on has already turned invaded and attacked countries mostly in the middle East into Hiroshima. One final remark about Sy Herch’s article, it seems to be one -sided as he is reporting without any critical distance of what he was told by his interlocutors who are participating in western Israeli psychological warfare against Palestinians.
On Tuesday, a strike hit the al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza, killing over 500 people. Palestinian movement Hamas accused Israel for the attack but the Israel Defense Forces denied any involvement, putting the blame on the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement. With Gaza hospital attack that claimed 500 lives, we have one more another example of binary mind of the West, its double standard when it comes to justify its war crimes and its subservient mainstream media when it comes to narratives aimed at minimizing the bloody wars of the US, its vassals in Europe and elsewhere. We have to remember how western media have accused Russia for attacking Mariupol maternity without any evidence the attack was initiated by the Russian forces. We can cite numerous examples of western binary mind and its double standard when it comes to its deadly wars especially the Butcha ‘s false flag engineered hours following Boris Johnson’s visit to Kiev to convince Zelensky to sabotage the peace negotiations on Turkey in April 2022. When it comes to Israeli crimes in Gaza, things change from top to bottom and the narratives are reversed. Now western mainstream media call for waiting the results of investigation to know who blame for the deadly strike on the hospital. For Biden, the origin of the attack is “other team”, that is Hamas. A self-proclaimed pundit in French TV LCI labelled also Kiev and Tel Aviv channel broadcasting in French language alleged that the bomb used against the hospital seems to be artisanal, blaming indirectly Hamas for the deadly strike. Palestinian ambassador to Spain has said with Spanish broadcaster that the hospital team was asked hours before by Israeli forces to evacuate the site. The New York Times removed the mention of the Israeli strike from the headline of the news about the hospital: it now reads: « Israel and Palestinians Blame Each Other for Blast at Gaza Hospital »
While the hostilities are raging in Gaza following Hamas’s attack on October 7 and Israeli riposte, the United States is flexing its muscles by sending on Tuesday the USS Gerald Ford carrier strike group reached already the eastern mediterranean Sea followed by the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower aircraft carrier including USS Philippine Sea guided-missile cruiser, USS Gravely and USS Mason guided-missile destroyers and Carrier Air Wing 3 with nine aircraft squadrons. US warmonger politician like Lindsey Graham, the man who called for the assassination of Putin, got to take a stand, has sent clear warning to both Iran and Hezbollah stating “ »If Hezbollah, which is a proxy of Iran, launches a massive attack on Israel, I would consider that a threat to the State of Israel, existential in nature… Iran, if you escalate this war, we’re coming for you. » If Hezbollah is a proxy of Iran, we can say the same thing about Israel which is not only a proxy of the US but it is mere military base in the Middle East, someone called the Jewish state, the neighbourhood policeman and Washington, the central police station. Like Israel in the Middle East, one can add Ukraine used by the US and its European vassals as proxy against Russia. To the long list of US and European Union proxies, one can add nazi groups, those who fomented Euromaidan in 2014 overthrowing Yanukovich’s government ; the Mujaheddins and Ben Laden in Afghanistan, created by the CIA and the support of Saudi and Pakistani Intelligence agencies, used as proxy forces to fight the USSR ; using armed mercenaries of fascist Croatian Ustase who claim to belong to Ante Pavilic’s movement, the equivalent of Ukraine’s Stepen Bandera ; myriad of Jihadists mercenaries used as proxy forces by the US+EU to destroy Iraq, Libya and Syria and to destabilize states in the Sahel region, Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger; the CONTRAS, counterrevolutionary groups created by the CIA, used drug dealers as proxy forces to overthrow the Sandinistas government in Nicaragua
