Apartheid in secret Israel

Meet the new occupant, just like the old occupant.

Palestinians understand that the exchange of one evangelical extremist for prime minister of Israel will not change for the sake of another evangelical extremist, iota how Israel methodically does, after the day of the grinding day, apartheid in occupied Palestine.

If there is any doubt about that predictable score, the renewed bombing of Gaza this past week has provided further evidence. The new guy is as quick as the last one to remind the world that he will use the same deadly device to traumatize, mutilate and kill as many Palestinians as Israel wants, for all Israel wants, for whatever reason Israel wants, while Israel wants, and except for tiny Ireland, the prime minister or president he won’t do or say anything about it.

However, Israel is forced – as a trivial exercise in public relations – to extract one of the well-known litany of “provocations” from traumatizing, mutilating and wanting a lot of Palestinians whenever it wants, whatever it wants, whatever it wants. while he wants and wants.

This time, $ 110 million in savage attacks by Israel wiped out more of Gaza over several days, fueled by so-called “fiery” balloons filled with helium-patched and Palestinian-bound balloons. “Militants” with a rope.

“Provocations” is a tired and discarded pantomime.

Whether it’s balloons, tensions, burning tires, kites, rocks or famous metal firecrackers, Israel knows that a Palestinian who wants to be outside the Hague is allowed to traumatize, mutilate and kill as many as he wants. whenever he wants, by whatever means he wants, for whatever reason he wants, for as long as he wants, and the Prime Minister or President outside Ireland will not do or say anything about it.

So it doesn’t matter what the name of the last Israeli prime minister is, what racist and headless party he leads, or how his and his conspirators were able, with an alleged Machiavellian-style skill, to tighten a precariousness. the coalition eventually frees the former guy. It remains an indelible constant: the machinery of apartheid, on the eve of the day of the grinding, continues to flourish in occupied Palestine from the middle of the last century.

Here’s another constant: Like old fanatical Israeli prime ministers, new and fanatical Israeli prime ministers also know that most TV and newspaper editors in Western establishments pay temporary attention to what Israel has done and is doing to the Palestinians in occupied Palestine. Israel decides to bomb Palestinian Palestinians.

This means that after a few years or so, after a “bang-bang” has erupted – this is a reporter for when war tools go “boom” – invisible Palestinians usually appear on Western cable news networks and Western opinion pages on how newspapers take away Palestinians’ homes and land. to write how and how they continue to write about how and how they continue to be imprisoned, tortured, traumatized, mutilated, and killed by a long line of rebels dressed in suits and uniforms.

This is, by now, a trivial pantomime.

Offering Palestinians some time and space to chronicle or condemn Israeli crimes is a good cover for Israeli directors of Western television and newspapers to congratulate and brag about their friendship: “You see, Palestinians also have a say.”

Meanwhile, those in charge of television and newspapers have denied acknowledging that human rights groups have blamed Israel for practicing apartheid – as defined by international law and not as a hyperbolic crunch – and have used the white card since its inception. permission not only to steal Palestinian homes and land, but also to imprison, torture, traumatize, mutilate, and kill Palestinians with impunity.

No matter what convenience they can keep in private and unlawful private law, any Palestinian used by Israel to systematically steal Palestinian homes and land, or how many Israeli Palestinians commit imprisonment, torture, trauma, mutilation and murder, most Western television and newspaper editors have always defended Israel’s right. “. to do all of the above – yesterday, today and tomorrow.

To question the “right” to defend against the existential threat posed by balloons, sheds, burning tires, kites, stones, or glorified firecrackers would be a sacrilegious act of geopolitical heresy.

This canonical editorial support for Israel is literally reflected in the fact that most Western prime ministers and presidents reflect the same attitude toward Israel as they decide to release more “bang-bangs” to their “allied” Palestinians “friends” in the already wounded occupied Palestine. .

Here’s Canadian spatialist Marc Garneau turned foreign minister, who doesn’t hold him accountable like the TV and newspaper editors, saying that any discovery, in any field, is an apartheid state of Israel, but hysterically the “label” is anti-Semitic tropism.

“The attitude of the Liberal government is very clear on the issue of the apartheid label,” Garneau said recently. “We categorically reject it … and, of course, we are completely against anti-Semitism.”

When he puts on a mannequin to read another pedestrian card when he is forced to replace himself as a foreign minister, Garneau could become an editorial writer whenever he writes his standard apology to any Canadian newspaper that traumatizes, mutilates and kills Palestinian Israelis with his indefinite arsenal of bang-bangs in Ottawa and equipped with friendly arms dealers outside of it.

The corollary of this stubborn phenomenon is, of course, that when big and lasting “bang-bang” demonstrations stop, most Western TV and newspaper editors stop inviting Palestinians to stop talking or writing about how Israel steals their homes and land, and prisons, torture , traumatizes, mutilates and kills Palestinians with impunity in occupied Palestine.

As always, television reporters create less “direct success” in this – within the security and comfort of Tel Aviv – describing the recent “spasms” that have been the “conflict of conflict” for decades. it caused death and suffering on “both sides” almost to the same extent.

And in the cable news networks and newspaper columns they managed to get a strange chunk of time and space to “perspective” the Palestinians into launching “perspective” on Israel’s deadly 11-day turkey in Gaza that disappeared in Gaza because their presence in tokens is not necessary. providing the audience with a patina of balance and fairness.

In fact, Israel has resumed the bombing of Gaza, which is no longer registered as “news” by many Western television and newspaper editors, and most of them – when the Palestinians are in a “serious situation”, have the attention of a frightened person. Squirrel.

Anyway, the “war” hasn’t re-ignited – yet. When that happens, they’ll come back to give you a momentary look. Until then, he has immediately returned to rhetorical business as usual: Israel has a “right” to itself blah blah, blah, blah and these “militant” Palestinians continue to demand a bloody nose.

In the meantime, they allow Palestinians to suffer, alone, and especially out of sight, the trauma, shamelessness and provocation that became a common part of daily life during the stifling military occupation of Israel.

This is hidden apartheid.

Israel’s militant religious militants may fall on top of the Palestinians in occupied East Jerusalem, shouting “Death to the Arabs” and “let your people be burned,” and television and newspaper editors stand up.

Palestinian brothers and sisters who have gone on social media are likely to be expelled from the Sheikh Jarrah district in furious force and the directors of television and newspapers are being held up.

More than 2,000 Palestinians are like cattle and are imprisoned for announcing a “ceasefire” and soon after facing the heinous destruction of occupied Palestine and its peoples, and television and newspaper directors rise up.

Highly armed Israeli hoods – who euphemistically call them “security forces” – attack the compound of the Al-Aqsa mosque and shoot rubber-coated steel bullets, tear gas and stun grenades, wounding numerous worshipers and raising television and newspaper editors.

Mazen Bessam, an 11-year-old Palestinian boy, is being held and “arrested” by the hooded men – supposedly to keep Israel safe – while his little sister is asked to cry and be released, and the TV and newspaper editors shrug.

As documented by Human Rights Watch and others with specific and compelling details, Israel has never stopped the execution of apartheid. Committed against the Palestinians by the “bang-bang” sounds and weak visions before, during and after that attract the anxious gaze of TV and newspaper editors, I suspect, who would prefer to talk and write about Donald’s insanity. Trump.

“Bang-bang” is part of Israel’s state-sanctioned and relentless pursuit of systemic persecution of all Palestinians occupied by the state of Palestine.

The inadvertent and failed failure of Western television and newspaper directors to accept this demonstrable event and fundamentally recalibrate the coverage of what is happening in the “land” of occupied Palestine makes them complicit in Israel’s persistence and its explicit, inhuman and shameless consequences. pardon the practice of apartheid.

The occasional appearance of a Palestinian on television or paper when Israel repeats an explosive “bang-bang” show hardly resolves itself in the face of this embarrassing and embarrassing blindness.
