Zionist Microsoft software engineer Yakir Ben-Elisha served as a sniper in the special unit ‘LOTAR’ during the ongoing genocide war in Gaza.
⭕️ Only last week, Microsoft fired two employees who organised a vigil at the company’s headquarters to honor the Palestinians killed in Gaza and to call attention to Microsoft’s complicity in the genocide.
✍️ These evil corporations are only a by product of the western governments that give birth to them – hypocrisy and genocide are their primary tenets.
In this context, while the Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) Red Star declares its solidarity with the people of Palestine and Lebanon and condemns the evil imperialist-Zionist nexus and all its defenders, it also registers its firm opposition to the Modi government’s continued export of defence equipment to Israel as part of the anti-Islamic ideological alliance fostered between Zionism and Hindutva fascism, whose foreign policy, as a junior strategic partner of US imperialism, is in line with the latter’s dictates.
The genuine resolution of regional conflicts requires that countries, including Palestine, “enjoy equal rights of statehood, sovereignty and security,” Rami G Khouri, a distinguished fellow at the American University of Beirut, said in an article on the website of Al Jazeera.
“The United States and Israel speak vague words along these lines, but act in ways that prevent serious peace-making and promote eternal military conflicts,” Khouri pointed out.
Khouri was echoed by Juan Cole, a history professor at the University of Michigan, who said that the U.S. administration let the Israeli government “completely disregard international law when it comes to its treatment of the Palestinians.”
“To sum up, the ligaments of American influence in the Middle East are now dissolving before our very eyes,” Cole added in an opinion piece in The Nation magazine.
The New York Times was even more direct in its assessment of Washington’s role in the Gaza conflict, stating bluntly that the U.S. impact on resolving the crisis has been “zero.” The article further criticized Biden’s Middle East policy, stating that “a year after the Oct. 7 terror attacks, Biden’s Middle East policy appears to be a practical and moral failure.”
The report also documented over 80,000 Israeli incitement posts on social media platforms, including calls for genocide and justifications for violence and mass killings against Palestinians. The Centre recorded 340 complaints related to incitement through WhatsApp messages and SMS. Additionally, the Centre tracked the dissemination of 250 false and misleading pieces of information during this period, ranging from completely incorrect information to manipulated contexts aimed at justifying the violent targeting of Palestinian civilians.
During the year of genocide, Sada Social documented around 67 instances where Israel and its military forces used the “death squares” tactic as a means to evade responsibility for killing Palestinian civilians. They published maps dividing the Gaza Strip into numbered squares, ordering the residents of specific squares to evacuate under the threat of bombing and death. This tactic was later repeated in southern Lebanon.
Various countries including the US, UK, Italy, Spain, the Philippines, Indonesia, Germany, Serbia, Ireland, France, and South Africa – are witnessing demonstrations in support of the Palestinian people on the eve of the anniversary of the Al-Aqsa Storm Operation. The cry against Israeli genocide is – “We Are All Palestinians!” Remember, in 1975, the UN declared Zionism to be a form of “White Supremacy” propagated by middle class (secular) Jews living in late 1800s Germany! Zionism is NOT Judaism (Judaism and Jewish people are not the enemy) – Zionism is the enemy because it is a form of fascism! The Palestinians are being massacred because they are NOT White! The collective world must stop this madness and the US, UK, and EU policy which allows it! The British RAF should stop illegally bombing the Yemen – just because the Yemeni people support Palestine!
Since Sept. 23, the Israeli army has been conducting intensive airstrikes on Lebanon in a dangerous escalation with Hezbollah.
This further fueled the ongoing clashes between Israeli forces and Hezbollah that started on Oct. 8, 2023, when Hezbollah fired rockets at Israel in support of its ally Hamas in the Gaza Strip, triggering Israeli retaliatory fire and airstrikes in southeastern Lebanon.
According to a report released by Lebanese authorities on Wednesday, the total number of displaced persons in Lebanon due to Israeli strikes has increased to nearly 1.2 million.
The Lebanese government has been appealing for donations to help it respond to the needs of the displaced people.
