US/UK arms-supported genocide in Gaza has 70,000 killed or injured to date: majority women, children and families.
Babies, children, pregnant women, journalists, reporters, plus entire families of up to three generations — all unarmed civilians, have been killed on the streets and in their homes by missiles from US-equipped and supplied, Israeli war planes — all flying completely unchallenged to perpetrate death and destruction on a scale not seen since WW2. That these are all war crimes is beyond dispute, for any terrorist act in the pursuit of war, or otherwise, that intentionally and/or wantonly kills unarmed civilians, ether singly or en masse, is, according to the Geneva Conventions, a war crime. And those responsible must be brought to trial, as early as possible after the genocide is eventually stopped.
To date, 20,000 Palestinians are reported to have been killed and 50,000 injured, by American-armed, Israeli troops, in Gaza, of which the majority were women, children and other unarmed civilians including journalists and photographers.
Israel is currently being armed and funded by a US House of Representatives (Congress) that votes to give nearly $US4,000,000,000 to this nuclear-armed state, every year — as America’s paid agent in the Middle East! The US Congress comprises both the House and the Senate, and are controlled overall by the influence of this most powerful lobby in America, AIPAC — the American Zionist Organisation (AKA ‘the Israel Lobby’), based in New York. This is a dangerously influential, powerfully funded, political lobby that is supported by both Christian and Jewish Zionists, that includes a US Evangelical Christian cohort numbering about 60 million — which uses its influence and power to control the legislative process. Consequently, no American President would dare to take any major decision without the prior approval from this unelected caucus.
Given that the US is still, at this time the most powerful nation on Earth, it follows that its creature state in the Middle East, has been given enormous power to disrupt the politics and economy of the entire region, and thence, the world. That is where the ultimate danger lies and from where the global (nuclear) war will start. It could be imminent. The disruption of International shipping, and therefore global trade, has already started. Global commodity prices will soon increase dramatically.
The immediate creation of a fully autonomous, independent State of Palestine might just avert such a world war. Maybe.
