Slaughter In Gaza And Lebanon As War With Iran Approaches by Ms Caitlin Johnstone!

Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley):

An active genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza, the threat of another extermination campaign in Lebanon, and acceleration toward a direct war of unimaginable horror with Iran.

Israel appears to have begun its long-planned ethnic cleansing of northern Gaza, with the IDF dropping bombs, issuing evacuation orders for multiple hospitals, attacking civilians with sniper drones, and besieging civilian populations in order to force tens of thousands of people to either move south or die. Israel has reportedly been dropping leaflets on the Jabalia refugee camp ordering people to leave, and then shooting anyone who tries to.

Since the seventh of October last year Israel has committed roughly 100 October sevenths in Gaza; scores of American medical workers who volunteered in the enclave signed an open letter to president Biden estimating the real death toll from Israels onslaught at over 118,000. Israel has also committed about two October sevenths in Lebanon during that time, with the majority of the 2,100 Israeli killings in that country coming just in the last few weeks.

As Israeli murderousness ramps up in both Gaza and Lebanon, Benjamin Netanyahu has issued a statement addressed to the Lebanese people telling them that they need to somehow defeat Hezbollah in order to "save Lebanon before it plunges into the abyss of a long war that will lead to destruction and suffering like we see in Gaza."

So we went from "limited operation" to Israel threatening what they did to Gaza-an ongoing genocide-in Lebanon. "please see here:" - Assal Rad (AssalRad) October 8, 2024

Israeli officials have been saying they are going to destroy Lebanon like they destroyed Gaza for months. Back in December Israels defense minister Yoav Gallant said, "Every person in Lebanon can take the map, the aerial photograph of Gaza, place it on an aerial photograph of Beirut, and ask themselves if this is what they want to happen there." Now Netanyahu himself is saying this.

Notably, Netanyahus statement was delivered in English, with English subtitles. This was not actually a plea made to the people of Lebanon, it was propaganda made for western consumption. Netanyahu does not actually believe the Lebanese people are going to take up arms against Hezbollah to stop their country from being destroyed, he is just creating a narrative to justify what he already plans on doing to Lebanon.

And the United States is encouraging Israel to move forward. On Tuesday State Department Spokesman Matthew Miller told the press that the Biden administration no longer supports a ceasefire with Hezbollah, saying "We support Israels efforts to degrade Hezbollahs capability" instead. Two weeks ago CNN reported that the administration has also essentially given up on a ceasefire in Gaza.

NBCNews claims United States officials have discussed joining Israel in offensive strikes against Iran, and passing them off as "defensive" after the fact.

This should raise alarm bells - Congress has not declared war on Iran, which would be disastrous for the United States and the region. "please see here:" - NIAC (NIACouncil) October 8, 2024

And we have not even talked about Iran yet. NBC News reports that United States military officials have been discussing directly joining in Israels planned attack on Iran, potentially launching their own airstrikes on the Iranian military whenever Israel begins its attack.

Whether the United States joins with Israel in its coming attack or not, Iran has already made it clear that it will retaliate against any further aggressions by Israel, and Israel has made it clear that if Iran strikes back it is going to ramp up its aggressions and perhaps start attacking Iranian energy infrastructure. If this blows up into full-scale war, as looks increasingly likely, it is inevitable that the United States will come to Israels defense.

Axios and its Israeli intelligence insider Barak Ravid have a new report out on how super duper frustrated the Biden administration is becoming with Israeli warmongering. In typical Axios fashion the outlet reports that the White House is becoming "increasingly distrustful" of Israels planned military operations against Iran and Lebanon, but that, in typical Biden administration fashion, its American sources admit that the United States "would very likely help Israel defend itself regardless" of whatever happens.

Vice President Harris Says Iran Is the United States "Greatest Adversary"

Whoever wins the United States election in November appears to be committed to riding with Israel down this path into the depths of hell.

In an interview with 60 Minutes, Vice President Kamala Harris defended the Biden administrations genocidal support for Israel, saying the weapons it has been giving them "allow Israel to defend itself." She also named Iran as the number one enemy of the United States.

In an appearance on The View, Harris was asked what she would have done differently from President Biden, and she said "There is not a thing that comes to mind." Then later she added, "You asked me what is the difference between Joe Biden and me, that will be one of the differences: I am going to have a Republican in my Cabinet."

And lest you make the mistake of thinking Donald Trump would be any better, last week the former president said that Israel should attack Irans nuclear facilities, and criticized the Biden administration for not being sufficiently aggressive on this front.

Donald Trump says Israel should "hit" Irans nuclear facilities. Yet another bold "anti-war" statement on his part - a terrifying blow to the Deep State and military-industrial complex "please see here:" - Michael Tracey (mtracey) October 5, 2024

"They asked [Biden], what do you think about Iran, would you hit Iran?" Trump said at a campaign event on Friday. "And he goes, "As long as they do not hit the nuclear stuff." That is the thing you want to hit, right? I said I think he has got that one wrong."

Anyone who still says Donald Trump is a peacemaker is a damn fool. Statements like this are in full alignment with the absolute worst warmongers in Washington,D.C. like John Bolton or Lindsey Graham.

Anyway, that is where we are at right now. That is the trajectory the United States empire has us on. An active genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza, the threat of another extermination campaign in Lebanon, and acceleration toward a direct war of unimaginable horror with Iran.

These psychos must be stopped!!
