“Gaza now has the highest number of child amputees per capita anywhere in the world.” (source: United Nations, 14th December 2024).
This horrifies me, what horrifies me even more is the normalisation of this horror and how one entity is allowed to get away with this carnage as they continue to lie, bullshit and demonise another people and the world lets them get away with it.
The terrorist state of Israel reminds me of the worst kind of school bully. The bully who takes fun in torturing the weak and helpless, who rips wings of butterflies and chokes baby birds in their nest. They do it for the sheer hell of it and because they have a sadistic streak that can only be satisfied by causing misery. Naturally they have to pick on those weaker than them, and with less resources because ultimately, they are the worst kind of coward. And just like any bully they are master manipulators, and generally have the admin on their side (the USA), Their parents (Zionism) who created this monster know every loophole and are master bullies themselves. Finally, like every bully, as soon as they are called out for their actions they cry victim and weaponise that victimhood. (Just think of how the term antisemitism is now tossed around like fairy floss at a country show.)
The only thing that keeps me sane is being reminded that Apartheid in South Africa met its demise, not because the government suddenly decided, hey this system is repulsive, but because of worldwide sanctions and the overwhelming power of the people. Nelson Mandela was once on the CIA’s terrorist list. Terrorism is just a term applied by western governments to anybody who threatens their established world order.
I desperately hope that the world continues to fight for equality and what is right. My fear is that it will get worse before it gets better which is heartbreaking because once a butterfly loses its wings it will never be able to fly.
How can we live with that?
