In response to ‘It is clear’: UN Commission finding confirms Israel committing genocide in Gaza

Fascism again!

It is difficult to conceive of the sheer depravity of a culture that can be so deprived of a moral conscience that it could take nearly two years of open and massive genocide of a people and vast destruction of the place in which they lived, for that culture and its people to just begin to emerge from their moral degeneracy. Yet that is where we in the West stand, again it should be said not for the first time.

The vast bulk of humanity, that we in the West have exploited, oppressed, colonised and debased for several hundred years, have not suffered from the same moral incapacity. They have recognised immediately the stated intent of the actions undertaken by the fascist cabal in Israel for what it is.

Another Western community (Ashkenazi Jews) seeking to bastardise another non-Western community as a continuation of that disgraceful legacy of western colonialism and imperialism.

The other 88% of humanity know we lack moral authority and they knowingly anticipate the continued decline we so richly deserve.
