Rolling Stone: The Horror of the Israeli Killing Field in Gaza! (18.8.2025)

Earlier this week, as President Donald Trump attempted to enforce a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, reports emerged that dozens of Palestinians — as many as 50 — as well as three aid workers, were killed by IDF gunfire while awaiting aid in Southern Gaza. Similar massacres are taking place on a near daily basis.

“They talk about using artillery on a junction full of civilians as if it’s normal,” one military source told Haaretz of a meeting they attended with leaders of the IDF’s Southern Command. “An entire conversation about whether it’s right or wrong to use artillery, without even asking why that weapon was needed in the first place. What concerns everyone is whether it’ll hurt our legitimacy to keep operating in Gaza. The moral aspect is practically non-existent. No one stops to ask why dozens of civilians looking for food are being killed every day.”

Markers of the callousness in the IDF’s operations within Gaza continue to elicit shock after more than a year of brutality. One source who spoke to Haaretz indicated that the militarized aid operation in his region of Gaza has a name: Operation Salted Fish.

Chinese envoy refuted the U.S.'s unreasonable accusations against China over the Panama Canal

UN: China Envoy Refutes US “Panama Canal” Accusations! (13.8.2025)

Fu pointed out that the U.S. is the biggest disruptor of peace and stability in the South China Sea. The U.S. has deployed offensive weapons in the region, including ground-based intermediate-range missiles, and has frequently sent large-scale naval and air forces to the South China Sea for military reconnaissance and exercises.

By flexing its muscles and acting recklessly near other countries’ borders, Washington aims only to stir up trouble in the South China Sea to serve its own geopolitical interests, Fu said.

U.S. hegemony, Cold War mentality and unilateral actions are rapidly heightening global maritime security risks. The U.S. has yet to join the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and refuses to fulfil its related obligations. It disregards international law and warnings from the International Seabed Authority by unilaterally deciding to exploit international seabed resources and seize what is considered the common heritage of humankind, the envoy said.

South Africa: Health Workers Protest Israel’s Weaponization of Hunger in Gaza! (10.8.2025)

Earlier, Philippe Lazzarini, commissioner-general of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, called on Israel to allow the UN and its partners to carry out their work unhindered.

“Before the spread of famine, community-based distribution centres, supported by partners, provided food and assistance to 2 million people, spread across the Gaza Strip. Five months on the ongoing attempts to replace the UN-coordinated response by four Israeli militarized distribution points, hunger has become the latest killer in Gaza,” he wrote on social media X.

According to the Ministry of Health in Gaza, more than 60,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks, and 150,000 have been injured.

Western Nedia Treats Israeli Crimes as Being "Natural" and a "Fait Accompli"!

UN Women: One Million Women & Girls Starving in Ongoing Gaza Genocide! (29.7.2025)

The crimes of the modern State of Israel are legend. The International Community has to draw a distinction between the Jewish diaspora in general (which exists across the world) – and the post-1947 (modern State of Israel which is premised upon the Jewish (middle-class) ideology of “Zionism” – which was declared a form of “White Supremacy” following a 1975 UN Resolution. Zionism and Jewish theology are not the same and not all Jews support Zionism. Furthermore, not all Zionists are Jews. The genocide that is unfolding in Gaza today is the product of the International Community treating Israel as if it is an entity that exists outside the law of civilised countries. Instead of firmly blaming Israel for its obvious crimes – the world media focuses only on the outcome of the crimes themselves – as if each murder happened in a vacuum and has no connection to any organised human activity. This flawed approach allows Israel to be separated from its crimes – and continue with the fallacy that it is the eternal “victim”. Jewish people throughout the world have to lead the drive to hold Israel accountable, and arrest, imprison, and/or execute those responsible (assisting the ICC and ICJ). The non-Zionist Jews must assist in the development of a “new” Nuremberg Trials to process the Israeli War Criminals. The Jewish State must be forced to behave in a civilised manner.

China: Trump’s Announcement to Withdraw from UNESCO Not Responsible! (25.7.2025)

After the death of Roosevelt and the election of the right-wing Christian “Truman” post-WWII – overt US agitation against the “Internationalist” principles of the United Nations (UN) began with a vengeance on the grounds that “Internationalism” was a key ideological demand of the Soviet Socialist System. As the primary armed force which took-on, confronted, and then defeated Nazi Germany (and its allies) during WWII – the USSR had a substantial philosophical input in the post-WWII world order. At least for a few years after 1945 – before the US realised the true extent of the political power its deployed army throughout the world granted the White House.

Gaza: Zionists Sanction OCHA for Exposing Genocidal “Starvation” Policy! (24.7.2025)

UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Tom Fletcher told the Security Council last week that movement requires navigating an obstacle course of coordination with Israeli forces, through active hostilities, traveling on damaged roads, and often being forced to wait at holding points or pass through areas controlled by criminal gangs.

“All too often, civilians approaching UN trucks are shot at,” OCHA said. “Collecting supplies safely requires reliable assurances that troops would not engage or be present along convoy routes.”

Israeli UN ambassador Danny Danon, speaking at the Security Council, announced restrictive measures against OCHA staff.

Israel will no longer grant automatic visas to OCHA’s international staff. Visas will now be limited to one-month terms, said Danon.

Stephane Dujarric, chief spokesman for UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, said that any punitive measures will only add to the obstacles preventing humanitarians from reaching people facing hunger, displacement and deprivation.
