Commentary by Dr. Patrick Slattery — “They come every two years and kill more, they want to exterminate the Palestinians and the world just lets them do that. No one is helping us.” This was what a Palestinian told a foreign reporter after her house had been destroyed by an Israeli missile.
But of course, it is not that the world just let’s Israel do it. The world helps Israel do it. They provide weapons and money and diplomatic cover and criminal immunity. Why? Because Jewish supremacists have gained such power and influence in most of the world’s countries that few are willing to speak the truth, let alone help the Palestinians.
This is something we can change by speaking up as individuals, or at least assisting those who do speak up. Each person who speaks out honestly clears the way for more to follow. Jewish supremacist power is as much an illusion as the Emperors clothes, and it will disintegrate before a tidal wave of truth. –ps
