The West and Its Assault on Christianity
Western politicians, the same ones who support and applaud apartheid Israel’s genocide of Palestinians, would have us believe that they support democracy and freedom and humanitarianism as foreign policy goals.
These same AIPAC-funded politicians would also have us believe that they support religious and ethnic pluralism as foreign policy goals.
Now more than ever their duplicity is being revealed as the war propaganda that it is.
As the West revels in its mockery of Christ’s Last Supper, Western-supported Israel has been slaughtering Christians in Palestine who seek shelter from the genocide in the supposed safety of churches.
Slaughters such as these are consistent with Western foreign policy. The West, (including Israel), with its overt and covert support for internationally-proscribed extremist terrorist groups, including ISIS and al Qaeda, is responsible for sectarian extremism in Syria and beyond, and the concurrent purge of christians from the “New Middle East”(1). Empire deploys these proxies to destroy prey countries and their peoples, and to advance imperial “hegemony”.
Interestingly, as noted by professor, author and human rights lawyer Dan Kovalik,(2) it is Hezbollah which helped the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) liberate Maaloula, where the language of Christ is still spoken, from the Western-supported sectarian terrorist groups.
Importantly, Eastern Orthodox Christianity is also being persecuted and expunged from modern-day Ukraine since Washington installed a nazi-dominated coup government in 2014.(3)
The established, and very catastrophic pattern, is that beneath the war propaganda and vacuous political statements, the West and its agencies support and control all manner of extremism, including so-called “Islamist”, and Zionist, and nazi/genocidal ethnic nationalist. All of them anti-democratic, anti-human rights, anti-pluralism… and anti-Christian.
The Olympic opening ceremonies that mocked The Last Supper are consistent with these genocidal values.
