I have been neglecting my primary interest of international situations with all the craziness happening in this country…..this is a re-blogt that explains a lot that is happening these days in the Middle East.

200+ deaths versus 10….sounds more like punishment rather than self-defense.
Fighting against Apartheid requires international solidarity and Germany must stop making Palestinians pay for the crimes of the nazis.

World condemnation. Outrage. Demonstrations in the streets. Still it continues. As long as Israel has the unqualified support of America, nothing will ever change.
Best wishes, Pete.
True….there are some cracks in that support but the government is still in the deep pockets of the Israel lobby. chuq
indeed! When the govt ignores the outrage and will of their own voters, is it worth to be called a democracy? I don’t that a two party system like in the divided states of America is representing their own beople better compared with a one party system in China.
eh… I’m not a fan of the Chinese oppression. However, I don’t think that a two party system is representing their People better like a one party system. Somehow, the divided states continue claiming to be the empire, world police and representing their people at the same time while it never was “the land of the FREE”.
Israel is only an investment, not a democracy according to still aggressive and now senile Joe:

Some 365,000 Vietnamese civilians are estimated by one source to have died as a result of the war during the period of American involvement. The U.S. National Archives shows that 58,220 U.S. soldiers perished. That’s a 6.7 ratio. Depending which bureaucrat or corporate military dude, ya talk to, between 461,000 to 1,033,000 Iraqis died a violent death in Bush’s illegal war crimes against humanity. US deaths in Iraq 4,287. Going with the smaller Iraqi deaths figures: that’s 108:1 ratio.
A secondary purpose for fighting a war to inflict maximum injuries upon the enemy. The primary purpose for fighting a war, to capture the enemy Capital and kill its Government leadership.
