Thank you for your brilliant analysis. So very thoughtful and insightful. You have shined a spotlight at what is really going on down the Rabbit Hole we have fallen into, and illuminated some very different things than what is commonly discussed.
The Hind Rajab Foundation has filed a request for prosecution in the United States against Yuval Shatel, an Israeli soldier accused of serious violations of international humanitarian law during Israel’s military campaign in Gaza.
The request, which outlines the evidence and criminal charges against Shatel, was submitted to both the U.S. Department of Justice and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and calls for Shatel’s immediate arrest and prosecution under U.S. federal law for:
War crimes under 18 U.S.C. § 2441
Conspiracy to commit war crimes under 18 U.S.C. § 371
Genocide and conspiracy to commit genocide under 18 U.S.C. § 1091

To know more about The Hind Rajab Foundation, there are a couple of really good interviews that Glenn Greenwald did on his Rumble platform, and Ali Abunimah of the Electronic Intifada, did with the head of this organisation, Dyad Abou Jahjah. It was very informative.
Here's a petition calling for accountability for the arrest of Ali Abunimah in Switzerland for the crime of speaking about Palestinian rights:
DAWN has urged the ICC prosecutor to investigate and prosecute former President Biden, State Secretary Blinken and Defense Secretary Austin for their personal roles in aiding and abetting Israeli war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide in Gaza as part of his ongoing investigation into the situations in Palestine since 2014.
Let’s give them our support. Maybe they will expand their complaint to include this latest US administration, and include all the leaders of the western nations supporting this genocide.
What a powerful piece! Besides the piercing geopolitical dissection, I haven't heard an analysis of the "soul" (unfortunate word choice) of white supremacy like this one. Not the trite liberal "checklist" accusation slogan from people like Sanders and AOC, who "fight oligarchs" and don't even MENTION the current holocaust/genocide, and basically keep it contained within the US slave history (ah, reparations) but which really no longer applies to mainstream US society (which has had a black president, black Supreme Court justices, big city black mayors, black Pentagon secretaries, black AG, etc.). No, this is the empire/colonial white supremacy more parallel to King Leopold or the treatment of indigenous peoples in all of the Americas, Asia, the Mideast. Very sobering and very real.
Yes, it is not merely about fear of the Other, about the threat of the Other. Your analysis suggests that this customary qualitative evaluation of the Other is, in reality, a qualitativo-quantative one. The Other is not merely Other. It is inferior = less. It is Other only insofar it is less. This less-than-equal embarrasses the One, threatening its national Ego. So the lesser Other quantity becomes a mirror of the great quantity, a mirror image without which the latter cannot exist (perceive itself as existing). It is then an existential issue. The larger quantity has to genocide itself (the very measure of its greatness). This measure prompts a quantitative solution. You very well bring this to bear on population quantities. Is this not the nature of genocide itself? To reduce the quantity of the already lesser Other nearest to Zero? This was reportedly a sentiment transpiring in Israeli governmental and military commentary on Gaza since 7/10. In short, genocide is a paradoxical self-destructive process that is simultaneously existential. Further, you then open the possibility that genocide is internalised and operative within a nation's citizenship itself. ... on a different issue ... doubt China has the capacity or motivation to rebuild Iran. Again, qualitatively, Iran is not comparable to Gaza strip.
Considering your point about a potential US/Israel–Iran war, what would stop the US from using nuclear weapons against Iran? After all, the US has already used nuclear power in Japan—to make a point and send a warning to the world. History has shown, and continues to show, that there are no red lines when it comes to hegemony.
If you had asked me this a year and a half ago, I would have said that option seemed very unlikely. Given the utter derangement, debasement, and barbarism that we've seen, I don't think so anymore. I think it is likely they will use nuclear weapons against Iran multiple times. I also think Iran planned for this, and the reciprocal destruction (in Israel and the region) will be immense. But I don't think anything is stopping them, and I see it as a distinct possibility that they will drop nuclear bombs on various sites in Iran
it does not make "good television", in Trump's words, at least for now... What makes good television seems to be shifting though.... the desiring machine of capitalism (best personified in Trump) may hold the last word
I think you are 💯 right about martial law, and war as a pretext and context for a totalitarian crackdown on the US population.
What do you think of this speculation: Wokeness was actually a devious move of white supremacy. It was led by white people who tried to get out ahead of the wave of payback for colonialism and take control of it (and of other white people) with performative self-flagellation. Once again, there they were at the front.
Wow, what a sobering insight about the frenzied re-establishment of white supremacy in the US.! Very keen to recognize the Faustian bargain between Israel and the U.S.: you give us Iran, and we’ll give you total control for white supremacy in the US.
I can see now why Max Blumenthal calls ICE: Israeli Censorship Enforcement
I started developing this theory a year ago, when strange sounds started coming out of Jewish circles and Netanyahu's visit coincided with all kinds of unusual events. haven't seen anything to contradict it yet (thank you)
With regards to your point on martial law, interestingly enough we’re approaching a key date on Sunday, April 20, where Trump may invoke the Insurrection Act. On January 20, Trump issued an executive order tasking the departments of defense and of Homeland Security to submit a joint report, within 90 days, recommending “whether to invoke the Insurrection Act.” The deadline for that report is Sunday.
But, of course, if Trump declares martial law, he would, as commander in chief, be subject to the same rules as any commanding officer. Not that rules mean anything anymore. But still, an interesting read, if only as a thought exercise:
Yes. And it’s in part why we are generally apolitical as Americans. Liberal hopefulness. No need to fight, believe in the system… trust the process… vote… sleep. Hope not as a catalyst to act, but an excuse not to.
Even more sinister... what if they want to make the population genetically uniform to experiment medications on them? I'm thinking Palantir meets Big Pharma.
I think they are trying to patent drugs targeting certain genetic aplotypes. So, they need a population that is as uniform as possible to run the trials. My idea is that they will build on Hancock's previous go ahead in the UK and use AI to figure out what genes are responsible for a certain response to drugs. Next, they'll patent their invention and if you can't afford it, you will be relegated to inferior healthcare (if at all). That also why they have issues with trans people being classed as women, it confuses their AI.

What do we do about it??!!

That could definitely be a bonus. Or maybe some eugenics to strengthen the race? The options are many
