Old Lies Behind Israels War Live on in Senate Resolution By Adam Dick

We are now a year into the Israel governments military action devastating the people and infrastructure of Gaza and since expanded into escalating violence against countries including Lebanon and Iran. Yet, even today, United States Senate members are repeating flagrant lies produced in the wars early days to trick United States of Americans and others around the world into supporting Israels war.

On Monday, Republican United States Senators introduced a resolution repeating some of these old lies that helped build support among Americans for Israels war - that "Hamas terrorists" killed "approximately 1,200 individuals" in their October 7, 2023 attack and that Hamas used "rape as a weapon of war." Why repeat the lies? To support the resolutions conclusions, including that the Senate wants to "ensure the forever survival of Israel." Left unsaid in the resolution is that the way the United States government continually acts to purportedly achieve this goal includes shoveling more and more money, weapons, and intelligence to Israel for Israel to use in whatever way it chooses. Indeed, the United States governments commitment seems unfazed no matter Israels level of barbarity and no matter how much Israels actions cause further geographic expansion of the war.

To the extent United States of American politicians repeating these baseless claims regarding October 7 are doing so because they are ignorant about what happened, they would do well to watch a new documentary - Atrocity Inc. - featuring reporter Max Blumenthal.

Mr. Blumenthal was there from the beginning calling no dice on the propaganda promoted by Israel and United States politicians, along with American media, that has been used to gain public support for Israels aggressive actions.

The widespread rape allegations are ridiculous fabrications and a significant portion of the death toll is from the willful killing of Israelis by agents of their own government, Mr. Blumenthal explains in the documentary. Blumenthal also debunks other outrageous lies, including claims related to the killing of, and even beheading of, babies on October 7.

Senators, and everyone else, can watch the documentary here.
