Invasion of Gaza - Sheffield Emergency Protest

Sheffield PCS | 06.07.2006 13:13 | Anti-militarism | Repression | Social Struggles | Sheffield

Saturday July 8th 2006
12:00 pm - 1:30 pm
Sheffield Town Hall Steps

Please join our protest against the illegal actions of the Israeli Government and army. We are also protesting about the British government’s refusal to condemn Israeli actions and its continued failure to help the Palestinian people or help build towards a just peace.

For the 1.4 million people living in the open air prison camp of Gaza the already appalling living conditions have worsened dramatically since the new, illegal assault. There is little food or fuel in the shops of Gaza. People are terrified to leave their homes after the Israeli army dropped leaflets telling residents to avoid moving in the area because of military activity.

The continuing overnight shelling and sonic booms are a clear example of the collective punishment Israel is using to terrorise innocent civilian Palestinians. Other Palestinians in Northern Gaza have been told to ‘start packing’ as today Israel embarks upon its reoccupation of that area.

* We are also calling on all our supporters to contact their MPs urgently, calling on them to demand the British government condemn these illegal and disproportionate Israeli actions. It will only take a couple of minutes to write to your MP via the Sheffield PSC resource page:  http://www.sheffieldpsc.org.uk/drupal/contact_your_representatives

* Updates from Dr Mona El-Farra: With love, from Gaza  http://fromgaza.blogspot.com/

An appeal from the 2006 Peace Cycle for a Support Vehicle

The Peace Cycle is in urgent need of two support vehicles from the beginning of August, when the London to Jeruslam Peace Cycle sets off. Four Sheffield PSC members will be joining the first leg of the cycle ride.

We need a long wheel based, high top or Luton box type vehicle. Suitable vehicles include: Mercedes Sprinter, VWlt31, Ford transit. Left hand drive would be even better! Also needed - an estate car, such as Ford Sierra.

We have a limited budget to buy vehicles, although a donated or loaned vehicle would obviously be great. If you can help at all, please contact either  hilarysmith@blueyonder.co.uk or  sheridan@thepeacecycle.org. Further information:  http://www.thepeacecycle.org/

Want to stop the evil, then speak truly about the evil.

06.07.2006 16:08

When Blair glorified EVERY act of jewish and Israeli terrorism a few weeks back (and it was BLAIR that explicitly stated that supporting jews in the UK meant supporting every vile act of Israel), the immediate fate of the Humans trapped withing the 'occupied' territories was decided.

It should be remembered that it was the occasion of the Israeli atrocity on the beach that matched Blair's oath to British jews that he would support every action taken by Israel against their 'sub-human' enemy.

Since that time, the mass media of the UK have been running a concerted program of attacks against 'muslim' extremism, where the British muslim community is told that if it objects to the crimes against humanity suffered by fellow muslims in Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan, of Chechnya, then it is a 'terrorist' community.

Why did the nazis survive long enough as a movement to be able to carry out such extensive crimes? Because, at the time, all pointed criticism of the nazi movement was ruthlessly suppressed, and I am NOT refering to the situation within Germany.

Israel styles itself after nazi Germany for one very simple reason, because the nazis were so incredibly successful in their ruthless abuse of power, and their manipulation of politics in other nations, partially through their access to friendly media barons. Decades after the fall of the nazis, Israel and its supporters are convinced that they have improved on EVERY nazi method, and have a flawless control of the mechanisms of the West.

There is no legal method that can stop acts of Israeli depravity, for the supporters of Israel have total control of France and the US, and massive influence within the UK and Russia, giving them the support of 4 out of 5 of the permanent members of the UN Security Council. Those of you stupid enough to think that the voting doesn't reflect this forget that only one nation needs to make this fact obvious by using the veto, and that nation is the US.

Those of you that listen to Blair's dribble in the mass media, and strain to have an optimistic view of the world, have a real problem at times like this. By any metric, the Palestinians are at their most passive for years, and are seen bending over to take the most awful abuse from the Israeli scum. Meantime, all this earns the Palestinians is an ever increasing level of abuse from Israel. At the same time, you are told by Blair's press that the West seeks better relations with muslims. A paradox for those stupid enough to believe what the BBC and ITN tells them.

In reality, muslims are being actively baited, just as Hitler actively baited the jews in the beginning of his campaign. The actions of Israel of those of a racist monster that needs to be put down. They prove conclusively that Israel and its supporters are not just criminal, but utterly evil in that absolute way that cannot be reformed, only punished into non-existence, as we did with the nazis.

There was a simple, peaceful solution, but as I have pointed out, impossible to implement while Israeli terrorists have control of the UN. This solution is simple. Every victim of Israel would be compensated at Lockerbie levels. Every human murdered by Israel would result in a payout of tens of millions of pounds to their family. And if the supporters of Israeli terror want to say, what about the other way round, I say FINE (given that I am talking about EVERY territory zionist murderers have operated in, the ratio is thousands to one against Israel). Now if the racism of Blair and Israel was forced to end, and their victims were compensated at Lockerbie levels, in the first instance it would be the US and German taxpayers who would foot the bill, for it is they that finance the terrorism of Israel.

However, the endless litany of racist Israeli acts of mass murder that such compensation would bring to public attention would destroy the powerbase of Israeli supporters overnight. Israel would be seen by the masses in its true light, and justice, so long denied, would at last reach the racist monsters of this disgusting nation.

A peaceful outcome is not going to happen, though. Every time the public feels ready to vomit at the reports of the latest Israeli racist atrocity, The BBC and ITV etc will blitz the public with historic propaganda from WW2. Hitler did exactly the same, of course, saying "don't you dare condemn us nazis, look at what was done to you in the past". You may find it odd that all across the civilised world, rapists and murderers do NOT have access to this form of defense in court, but the people of the West are instructed to remember that ISRAEL HAS THE ABSOLUTE RIGHT TO TORTURE RAPE AND MASS MURDER IN THE NAME OF ENLARGING THE POWERBASE OF ITS MASTER-RACE, JUSTIFIED BECAUSE HITLER MASS MURDERED IN THE NAME OF ENLARGING THE POWERBASE OF ***HIS*** MASTER-RACE.

In truth, at this time Israeli racism is the smallest part of the equation (although it serves its purpose all to well). The real game is Blair's WAR WITH IRAN. The actions in Gaza that Blair instructed Israel to begin are simply another part of Blair's building momentum. Blair glorified Israeli atrocities for the same reason that Hitler was happy to do the same for HIS allies- just another means to an end.

Blair wants options, and Blair wants an historic momentum that will flatten any barrier that sane Humanity will erect to protect itself from genocide and global destruction. When Israelis mass murder the Humans that they stole their land from, they may seem to be doing nothing more than emulating endless genocides by colonists in the past, but such actions have a greater context, given the current moral understanding of the masses. Hypocrisy unchallenged at the highest level produces tensions that will fracture the strongest societal structures.

The people of the West are told that racism is the worst evil, and then informed that they will be severly punished if they refuse to give active support to the worst acts of racist state aggression seen since WW2. A muslim horrified at the genocide of 500,000+ Humans during Blair's aggressive war against Iraq is told that he/she is a 'terrorist' for daring to feel this way. A 'muslim' terrorist that takes money and military training from Blair in order to travel to Afghanistan to actively participate in the torture, rape, and murder of the Humans there, is described by the state as an example of a 'good' muslim.

How does this differ from the tactics of Hitler during the rise of nazism. Hitler wanted EVERYTHING to be possible to him- power without the limits of Human morality. Given that political power ALWAYS derives from the support of the masses (passive support ***IS*** support), Hitler needed a sea-change in the attitudes held by the peoples in the lands he controlled, and intended to control.

It is the same with Blair.
ANOTHER MASS MURDER OF MUSLIMS- MUSLIMS ARE EXTREMISTS- ANOTHER MASS MURDER OF MUSLIMS- MUSLIMS ARE EXTREMISTS- ANOTHER MASS MURDER OF MUSLIMS- MUSLIMS ARE EXTREMISTS.

The thinking part of your brain sees this is a contradiction, and is thus a self defeating concept. However, think back to that toy you made as a kid, with a cage on one side of a disc of card, and a bird on the other side. When the card was taped to thin rod, and the rod rotated, persistence of vision put the bird in the cage. Blair knows what he is doing. The two things will merge, and the meme that MUSLIMS ARE MASS MURDERED ***BECAUSE*** THEY ARE EXTREMISTS will become ever more solid.

Blair's coming war with Iran will murder millions of Humans. There isn't an ordinary person on this planet in favour of this. However, it is the passive support of these 'ordinary' people that will allow Blair to achieve this next genocide.

Israel's atrocities are designed to create masses of blind (and well justified) anger. The refusal of the West to act against Israel is designed to do more of the same. This malestrom of emotion is the ill wind that Blair trusts will blow all kinds of excellent opportunities. FIRST AND FOREMOST IS THE FALSE FLAG THAT BLAIR CRAVES WITH EVERY ATOM OF HIS SOUL. Blair wants to mass murder an extraordinary amount of his 'own' people, have a group of convenient 'patsies' to blame, but first and foremost have a 'plausible' motive for the 'iranian-backed terrorists' to have acted in this fashion.

Under current political circumstances, the US armed forces do not want to attack Iran. In the immediate aftermath of a massive Blair false flag, the opinions of any but the most rabid nutters within the US military would count for nothing.

See the Israeli war atrocities for what they truly are. A concerted effort to create the circumstances under which Blair and the US can GENOCIDE the Humans of Iran. Watch the coming days and weeks for Blair's false flag, the atrocity that he intends to inflict against us disguised as a 'muslim extremist attack' in revenge for events in Palestine etc, and the final excuse to trigger the war with Iran.

Divide and Rule. The Power Behind The Throne. A History Lesson

10.07.2006 03:09


I think that without studying the history of the Middle East since the discovery of oil

 http://www.saudiaramcoworld.com/issue/199901/prelude.to.discovery.htm

then all you can do is knee-jerk against the obvious Human rights violations carried out in Palestine today.

So here's my reading of that History....

The only reason for the support by the US for a Zionist state in Palestine is simply a divide and rule strategy to divide the Arabs and contain the power of the wider Jewish Diaspora.

The Ottoman empire controlled much of the Middle East before WW1.
The Turkish Ottomans used a system of divide and rule to control the Arab world called the Millet System.

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millet_(Ottoman_Empire)

The Zionists had been purchasing land in Palestine since the setting up of the Zionist movement around 1890. The Zionists also set up quasi governmental institutions which later became the de-facto Israeli Government, and integrated the local Jewish population.

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zionism

In order to remove the Turkish Ottoman Empire that controlled the area at the time of WW1, the Arabs were united against the Turks by the British, with the promise of independent Arab states being set up after the end of the fighting. Some of that history is covered in the story of Lawrence of Arabia.

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T._E._Lawrence

Support for the setting up of a Zionist homeland (not state) in the heart-lands of the Arab world was first mooted around the end of WW1 with the Balfour declaration.

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balfour_Declaration_1917

After the end of WW1 the allies realised the importance of oil in the waging of modern warfare and came up with a scheme to control the Middle East.

Using the Zionists and the land of Palestine as a diversion for the Arab states to eventually disunite them. So rather than unite and fight the imperialist oil companies they would fight Israel, which they did in skirmishes post WW1, and in full blown wars post WW2. Any wealth gained from oil was spent on weapons and funerals. With the result that the Arabs had been devided and weakened.

The wealth and strength of the Jewish Diaspora would be contained and depleted by having to fund and defend the Jewish home land.

After the first World War the Arab states Iran, Iraq etc were carved out of the desert by the British and French the whole area was divided into independent Arab states, except for the area West of the Jordan river which was administered by the British under the British mandate. (The small print)

This was a betrayal of the Palestinian Arabs by, in this case the British. The Arabs had fought on the side of the Allies against the Turks but they hadn't read the small print. It's clear that the British had other plans for the area.

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Churchill_White_Paper,_1922

During the inter war years more and more Jewish people continued to leave Europe for Palestine in the face of increasing anti-semitism, especially in Germany promoted by the Nazis, and the promise of a new life in Palestine promoted by the Zionists.

It's a fact that several US/UK/global financial institutions funded the Nazi's and Zionists in Germany in order to convince the Jewish population to emigrate.
The Zionists themselves worked with the Hitler regime in order to facilitate this Exodus. The ones who wouldn't or couldn't leave would become the victims of the Holocaust.

Here we see classic manipulation through financial support and covert opperations, of extremist groups (in this case Nazis and Zionists) in order to bring about a shift in the hierarchy of human power that existed on the planet at that time. i.e. An end to European Empires especially the British Empire. The destruction and theft of Jewish financial power. The fermenting of further destablisation in the, oil rich, Middle East. The rise of th USA as a superpower.

Post War

 http://www.trumanlibrary.org/oralhist/wright.htm

So the neighbours of Palestine and the Palestinians wanted a single State with protection for the Jewish minority.(seems fair)
While the US and the Zionists wanted two states.(divide and rule)

There was clearly a lot of pressure put on the UN states to follow the US plan. Threats of no aid and spoof phone calls brought enough UN states into line with the US/Zionist scheme.

The US State Department were mostly pro-Arab, but their advice was ignored and the divide and rule policy was pushed through the United Nations even though the neighbours of, and the other Arab states friendly to, the Palestinians unanimously voted against the policy. This was a further snub to the Arab world.

Zionism states that the state of Israel cannot be founded until the coming of the Messiah and, in order to get round this problem, the Zionists declared President Truman as the Messiah.
Now I could be wrong, but I don't think Truman was the Messiah.
There is no religious movement called "The Trumanites"
The British abstained and so the state of Israel was set up in 1948.

This was done with the full knowledge of the destabalisation and threat of war in the region that the setting up of a Zionist state would cause, indeed this is the very reason for the support of the Zionists in Palestine by the US and was tacitly supported by the UK.

All this goes to show that both the Arab people and the Jewish people are victims in the imperialists scheme to divide the region and so dominate it, in order to secure the supply of energy.

The enemies of both the Jews and the Palestinians are the powerful, globalist energy-military-media corporations that own several Governments world wide and are set on spreading their empire across the globe.

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globalism

The elite globalists' "philosophy" can best be described in the "philosophy" of Leo Strauss among others. Here you'll find Socrates, Machiavelli et al.
"The ends justify the means", "Political leaders should lie to their populations",
"Go to the temple and act religiously, but don't follow the teachings of the temple","divide and rule" etc.

 http://www.alternet.org/story/15935

The religions of Christianity, Islam, and Judaism all stem from the same religious roots and all have the same basic set of rules about living a moral life, not killing, being good to your neighbours etc. They have much more in common than they have differences.

It's the powerful leaders, who may say they're a Jew, a Christian or a Muslim, but act against the teachings of those religions, and against their own people, they act in their own self interest to maintain or lift their own positions in the hierarchy of global human power.
Bush apparently is a born again Christian, so he should "turn his other cheek", "love his enemy" etc. and not rampage around the planet killing and stealing.

The strategy of division and rule, perpetrated by the power elite, exaggerates any and all differences in human society, so we don't unite and non-violently act to remove their power.

Their power is based on violence, wealth, hegemony, hierarchy, military strength and they control the rest of us with intelligence services, fear, debt, media distraction, misinformation, racism, and murderous wars.

They don't care how many Palestinians die (in the genocide that's being carried out on their behalf in Palestine today) or how many Jews died in the Holocaust.

They delight in rants like the one from "twilight"
and responses like the one from "A very concerned Jew"
above.

Be a Human first and then express your religion/race/culture.
Our diversity is our strength our humanity unites us.

The Jewish people of Palestine are as much in a prison as are the Palestinians, it's just that conditions in the prison are materially much better, its more of an Open Prison for the gaolers of the Palestinians. Their wall locks them in.
They are the tools of the globalists and their job is to increase the horror felt by most humans at the treatment of the Palestinian people. They get away with it because of the horror felt by most humans at the suffering of the Jewish people in the Holocaust.
The increased anger felt in the face of such blatent violations of human rights, helps the intelligence services recruit more "terrorists" to carry out false flag and fake terror opperations against their own people in order to increase surveilance and decrease the hard won rights of the people in their own territories.

While we in the West are encouraged to be ignorant of our History.
Israeli's are indoctrinated with the belief that the land of Palestine is theirs, what they're not told is that
Truman wasn't the Messiah.

Peace.
