Global Research Fundraising: Stop the Pentagon’s Ides of March

Introduction

A host of $64,000 questions, never fully addressed, nor yet even remotely thoroughly posed, in the early days of the human race’s primitive evolutionary development in the so-called ‘Old World’ on Planet Earth, even up to the recent centuries of the breached births of its budding young Western nations in the New World, are the same questions it continues to endlessly grapple within itself for answers, consciously and unconsciously. 

Yet, within all the prior thousands of years of time and space, the human race never has been able to quite demonstrate, within the context of any advanced geo-political human system of habitation within either the Old or New Worlds, the capability of fully answering ever since its species emerged.

This constant failed, aborted attempt of the human race’s inability to fully understand itself and the potentially-glorious higher purpose and limitless miraculous possibilities its species represents, as some uniquely-new cosmic, celestial model of life’s evolutionary development it offers to the forces of creation, could be succinctly called, using the imagery of the human species own endless grappling with this phenomenon of its own evolutionary conundrum within the context of its latest explorations in the cinematic creative arts, Kingdom of The Return of the Planet of the Apes.

This latest Sci-Fi attempt by Director Wes Ball creates, during the reign of the ape leader, appropriately named Caesar, is an advanced leader among the kingdom of the apes, who sets out to question everything he’s ever been formerly taught about the past and makes a ground-breaking evolutionary decision to take his people on another marauding quest that will define a new and different future for apes and humans alike. What that means in real human terms in 2024, in America, in Gaza and the world at large remains, at present, an open question.

America Once Heralded Itself As “All The Truth That’s Fit to Print”

Once upon a time, 115 years ago in 1897, the owner of the New York Times, Adolph S. Ochs, sought to distinguish his own news kingdom’s attempt at ‘truth-telling’ that would separate it from the then more sensational yellow journalism of other newspaper ‘Kings’, like William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer.

Ochs created a prize of $100.00 if any of the newspapers readers could come up with a better descriptive phrase for the New York Times than its own phrase –

“ALL THE TRUTH THAT’S FIT TO PRINT; which still, to this day, permanently appears in the left-hand corner’ ‘ear’ of the paper’s masthead; which, 150 years later, many of its readers now disparagingly refer to as “the biggest joke of all Times’, pun intentionally intended, for honest journalism in 2024. 

At any rate, though hundreds of entries poured in, many were forgettable turns of phrase, such as:

“Full of meat, clean and neat”; “Cheerful, clean, with glossy sheen”;

“As bright as a star and there you are”; “The people’s voice, the good choice”;

“Yours neatly, sweetly and completely”, and; “All the world’s news, but not a School for Scandal.”

As the contest unfolded in the fall of 1896, the New York Times amended the rules making it clear it would not abandon its motto, but would still pay $100 for the best suggestion, until the field was finally narrowed down to: “Always decent; never dull”; “A Decent Newspaper for Decent People”; “The news of the day; not the rubbish”, and “A decent newspaper for decent people.”

At any rate, back in 1897, one can gain some sense of how different real truth-telling was back in the days of early America’s evolution compared to today where the New York Times masthead, still to this day, declares “all the truth that’s fit to print”; which to many serious fact-checking readers is considered a woeful lie and veritable laughing stock. See this.

One could say that, within the context of the actual true-to-life human world of 2024, the same issues of ‘truth’ and ‘honesty’ once again cry out for answers in the slaughterhouse that is the war in Gaza. 

If the truth be told, those young, aggressive, fiercely-expansionistic, would-be Old World nation-states and their settler-colonists back in the days of yore, if the truth be told, were no more shockingly-inhuman and inhumane, no less brutally-cold and indifferent, in their ability to kill with impunity their fellow human beings of all ages, as were the Nazis not that many years ago, and now the Zionists, today, in Gaza.

But what is, perhaps, even more chillingly eerie, within whatever contrasts and comparisons can be made between the Nazis and the Zionists, is the alarming ways in which the vast majority of modern-day corporate mainstream media outlets, from the new York Times down to the local rags everywhere, like their predecessor newspapers of note still so proudly declare on all their banners and mastheads some reference to truth-telling yet, now, in point of fact, have fallen into deathly silent, purposely, intentionally, while keeping all their populaces deaf, dumb and blind as to the truth of what all is going on, not only in Gaza but everywhere else about everything else. The scope of the mind-control and dumbing-down boggles the mind with incredulity.

Has Propaganda Changed in the World Since the Lies of Zionism

In the early days of Europe’s ‘discovery’ of the New World, did they ever have any more of an inherent, God-given, right to exist there in the beginning than did the Civilized Tribes of the New World, not to forget all the other non-native nations  that they not only displaced but also, in the process, eradicated their entire ancient indigenous ways of life that had taken eons to evolve? Were the karmic prices in the greater cosmos that the entire human and non-human worlds were forced to pay back then, still the same, or even now way more costly karmic prices that the human race is forced to continue to pay for the madness of the Zionist’s, and so many others like them, who continue to wage an unrelenting war against not only the indigenous Palestinian peoples of Gaza but all indigenous lifeforms, everywhere?”

While no answers are forthcoming, and the silence remains deathly apparent, in this current epic period of modern world history, something evil, sinister and menacing, that has existed since ancient times, has once again been unleashed upon the world, in Ukraine, Gaza and so many other places; much to the utter disbelief of many, as if nothing time has stood still, and the primitive forces of humankind’s seemingly endless juggernaut of conquest, that for centuries since the beginning of homo sapiens appearance on planet earth, has once again everywhere set about: crushing everything  beneath the ponderous weight of its steel treads; conquering and displacing all weaker human and non-human indigenous living beings that have ever had the misfortune to stand in the way of the juggernaut’s mindless, so-called journey of progress through time and space. One wonders, is this is all there is to the mysteries of life in the universe?

Thus, the longer the brutality of the war in Gaza progresses, the more one hears militant Zionist settler-colonists commonly use the same harsh, primitive terms, once used by aggressive European settler-colonists in the New World’s ‘Wild, Wild West’.

Terms, like “animals”, “savages”, “beasts”, and “terrorists”, to refer to innocent Palestinians; or expressions like,

“We need to kill them all, even all their children and babies, because nits grow lice”, now can be read on all the front pages of the world’s corporate mainstream news.

Their jarring words and expressions almost, word for word, are identical to the primitive language once used in the America’s by the early European settler-colonist-invaders to describe the indigenous peoples they encountered as they sought to kill or totally remove them from their homelands, that the invaders coveted for themselves. Few thoughts of co-existence or equal statehood ever existed in the minds of those conquerors during the early days in the New World, any more than they exist today in the Zionists Old World mindset who remain obsessed with totally eradicating every Palestinian from Gaza.

Thus, the knotty question, “Can Zionist Israel exist without a free Palestine’s same inherent right to exist, side-by-side or among them, if need be?”, remains the single-most, unresolved question between the new conquerors and the conquered as it has everywhere on the planet since, well, forever. 

In the case of the suffering indigenous Palestinians, whose heads are the latest ones on the chopping blocks, there seems to be no other possible quest, vision or purpose for homo sapiens existence in this world, especially those who have decided to remain indigenous peoples, forever rooted to where they first began, who have no choice but to face all alone, on their own, the never-ending: death, destruction, conquest and colonization at the hands of the Zionist non-indigenous aggressors who desperately covet and yearn for what is not theirs, no matter what the biblical proclamation, because it has been God-given to the Palestinians. 

Yet, the vengeful zealots and radicals among the Zionists still covet that which, though they have no right to, still believe that by killing and stealing what is not theirs, they can, by virtue of their superior physical and military force of arms, still acquire some God-given truth by virtue of their possession of ‘The Holy Land’; regardless of whatever the amount of indelible blood may forever stain all their hands?
