Hall Of Shame

Some of those aiding and abetting crimes against humanity in Gaza. High ranking personalities who did nothing to save Gazans. I do not want to put a target on their back but I want us to remember they had a choice. I wish them no harm. I would like them to just be held accountable for their actions. Obvious main culprits are omitted here. (en)

    This is the English version (For French click here.)

    Jake Sullivan is the magician drawing red lines and making them disappear all of a soudain...

    But that only works to support Israeli war crimes.

    One question that could be asked at this point given Biden's cognitive difficulties is how much he is leading the White House. It'll be more and more likely if he gets a second term that he will not be in charge. When power is left to unelected advisors the danger to democracy and the rule of law is maximal. People actually making the decisions are not responsible for them since they pretend that they are made by the almost empty shell elected representative. It is even not clear that decision are actually made. They can just happen no one actually making them consciously and every one feeling no responsibility for them. Maybe we are not there yet but it looks like will be there soon enough or Trump will get a second presidency. Most favorable outcome would be that the two elderly, the ever more moronic and the vanishing one, be unable to run and we get an able not-Republican surprise president elect. The likeliness of this scenario is smaller every day though.

    The US ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield never voted for a ceasefire in Gaza!
    US record is 3 vetoes 1 abstention. Just after her abstention Ms Thomas-Greenfield claimed that the ceasefire resolution was non-binding which is utterly false. Ms Thomas-Greenfield is an essential piece in the US backing of Israeli war crimes in Gaza.
    Here is an opinion on her action and below press reports on the subject:

    Robert Wood, US Alternate Representative for spécial affairs at the UN, and substitute ambassador for  Linda Thomas-Greenfield voted against granting Palestine a full membership status. Only Security Council member to reject Palestine's application, Wood wielding US veto power blocked Palestine's accession to full voting member status at the UN. That's what contempt looks like...

    This is a picture of the almost anonymous French PM. It's arguable that as the prime minister of France he could be excluded from this Hall of Shame for being among the obvious main culprits since France has done nothing to stop Israel's slaughtering  arm and still provides it with military equipment. On the other hand, he is so obviously third division player that he perfectly fits here. The cowardice he has shown sending the cops on students protests rather than demanding Israel to stop its war crimes makes him a natural in this hall of shame. He's strong against the defenceless protesters reminding the world where it should stand and weak towards the main US ally doing absolutely nothing to stop the blood bath.

    The spoke person of the Department Of State, has been unable to acknowledge a single human right violation by Tsahal in Gaza!
    The guy has a whole department watching the situation in Gaza but is unable to find any instance of Israel committing any crime at all. The Israeli army has committed multiple war crimes, targetting humanitarian workers killing seven international personnel in a coordinated multiple strike, killing three shirtless Israeli hostages that waved white flags... It has been proven that Israeli have a long string of violation of human rights. Just read the report of Israeli historian Lee Mordechai below:

    Mordechai Report

    So Mr Miller clearly allowed arm shipments to Israel to continue while knowing that these very arms where enabling violation of human rights which is against US law!

    The phantom-mustached National Security Communications Advisor has gone out of his way to cover Israeli war crimes and US involvement in them.

    If he is remembered by history it will probably be for one of his numerous incredible statements trying to deflect blame from Israel and the US. Here are two of them:

    “Tell me, name me, one more nation, any other nation, that is doing as much as the United States to alleviate the pain and suffering of the people of Gaza. You can’t. You just can’t.”


    Well, Palestinians should be grateful, indeed!
    Let's analyse just a little the sentence. First Kirby asks a question meant to be a rhetorical one. Then he realizes that he is handing a stick to de beaten with. Every other nation (except Israel), every single one in the world has done more to alleviate the suffering of the people of Gaza. None of them have given Israel the bilions of dollars of weapons to harm the Palestinians, none of them have given the protection of a corrupt politician leader to a mafia boss as Biden has done, none has used their veto power so much to allow the massacres to continue. So if he stops here, he traps himself beautifully. Any journalist could answer "any other nation" or "South Africa" hence he has to conclude answering himself "you can't. You just can't" and keep talking in the hope that no one dares to give an honest answer to his question.

    Another one in another press conference:

    "The State Department has a process in place.  And to date, as you and I are speaking, they have not found any incidents where the Israelis have violated international humanitarian law.  And lest you think we don’t take it seriously, I can assure you that we do.  We look at this in real time"

    Any body awake at some point in the last six months can verify that you didn't take it seriously, that you have been hiding inconvenient unequivocal reports of crimes against the civilian Gaza population. You even postpone your own report deadline to buy murderers a little more time still to pursue their massacres.

    I hope you'll have to answer for your complicity of crimes against humanity and, if not, that history books remember your fondamental duplicity and your terrible record.
