20 October Gaza enters new stage after hospital bombing. Protests erupt across the world, while the Israeli-controlled media attempt to defect responsibility onto Islamic Jihad. Read again Chris Hedges, “Israel’s Culture of Deceit”. Hezbollah and Hamas are launching more attacks, where over 6,000 bombs have already been dropped in six days. Not content with bombing hospitals, Israel has also bombed a Greek Orthodox Church. A quote attributed to Golda Meir says that, because of the Holocaust, Israel can do anything, which is consistent with its practice. But if you take a closer look, the narrative of 6,000,,000 Jews having been put to death in gas chambers turns out to have no historical or empirical support. It appears to be based upon a disputed passage in Leviticus–theology, not history. Even the UN has declared that there is a genocide going on in Gaza. And a US destroyer is already acting on behalf of Israel, which is a bad sign. Scott Ritter observes that going to war with Iran would be suicidal for the US. But don’t be surprised if it comes to pass anyway. Netanyahu ordered the IDF to stand down for 7 hours to allow Hamas to take territory and hostages to create a pretext for the invasion of Gaza. The black flag raised perviously was not the flag calling for a holy war but only to honor the death of an Iman. A State Department officer has resigned in protest over Biden’s support for Israel. Other stories were not covered during the broadcast but are included in the links for this show.
