Invitation to Stop Averting Your Eyes from Gaza

Editor’s Note: We took this article from Caitlin’s Newsletter.  She allows everyone to “bootleg all her works freely.” This article was co-written by her husband Tim Foley. The title of the original is “It Is Freakish and Insane To Avert Our Eyes to Gaza.”

The report by the doctor was found at the website of James Perloff, and is linked here: https://jamesperloff.net/the-blood-of-gaza-cries-out/  It is a must watch.

It can make you feel like you’re going mad. How phony and superficial it all is. How we’re a year and a half into history’s first live-streamed genocide and our whole society is acting like everything’s peachy.

We’re murdering kids. We’re starving them. We’re dropping high tech military explosives on them. Blowing their limbs off. Ripping their guts out. Shooting them in the head. This isn’t just being done by “Israel”. It’s being done by the entire western empire which backs these atrocities.

And yet if you turn on a TV you’ll see famous people laughing and joking about nonsense, expressing political opinions of no more depth and significance than whether or not there should have been a female Ghostbusters movie. Go read the news and it’s dominated by empty fluff about celebrities and politicians and the latest brain fart to come out of Donald Trump’s mouth. Go to a party and everyone’s nattering about vapid gibberish, yelling “No politics!” if you try to say anything about the holocaust-shaped elephant in the room.

Newer readers might not know this, but I used to have a lot more fun on my platform. Lots of humor. Psychedelic poetry. Spirituality and philosophy. But ever since the Gaza holocaust began, that kind of writing has often felt like it would be irreverent and frivolous. Almost sacrilegious. I would feel like I’m joining in with the madness of mainstream culture by turning my back on all those emaciated bodies and mutilated children.

So for the last year and a half I’ve mostly just been doing what I feel everyone on earth ought to be doing: pointing to the genocide and saying it needs to stop.

I used to be a lot more poetical and creative in my ways of pointing to the criminality of the empire, because its depravity was often difficult for people to really grasp, so I was always seeking out new ways to help people see its monstrosity with fresh eyes. Now that they’re just butchering children right in front of us, that’s not really what’s called for anymore. What’s called for is to keep drawing everyone’s attention to the terrible thing that’s staring us all right in the face.

This task shouldn’t be falling to university activists and obscure antiwar bloggers. Every news outlet in the world should be making this their entire focus.

If we had a sane and ethical news media, this is what they would be doing. All the leading stories every single day would be about the latest evil thing Israel and its western backers have done in Gaza, clearly stating in every headline our own government’s role in making this possible. Every press conference would be completely dominated with questions asking every western official why we are participating in an active genocide and demanding answers about when it is going to stop.

Instead we get “Palestinians perish in explosion” passive-language headlines, usually coupled with “…says Hamas-run health ministry” in order to let readers disbelieve the entire story. And that’s on those rare occasions that Israel’s atrocities get reported on at all; normally Gaza is seen as a third or fourth-tier issue of far less importance than some infinitely less egregious grievance in our own country. Palestinian lives are given vastly less weight than western lives, with our own feelings and comforts emphasized far more heavily than the issue of the Palestinian people living or dying.

And it can just make you feel like you’re going crazy. It’s like if we were all going around physically drenched in human blood, with blood flooding our living rooms and severed limbs strewn about our bedrooms and kitchens — but nobody was talking about it. You try to say “What’s up with all this blood and gore?” and they shush you and tell you it’s impolite to talk about politics. A dark red deluge pours out of your minivan door when you open it to pick up your kid from soccer practice, and everyone looks away.

      1. I’m not keeping up on events much in Israel but I do understand there is a faction there that worships the devil — knowingly or unknowingly — and them would be the folks I am weary of .

        1. The Globalists are satanists and you were already told if you understand what Sir Queir said was not a mistake, not a slip of the tongue, he was put up to it or else showing off: “Release the Sausages” means “These Useless Eaters have no value whatsoever”. Tony Abbott did a similar stunt showing off when he said “Data Suppository”. Supposedly a bunch of supposed hostages is the excuse for this genocide and territorial theft. Who has the power to stand up to it ? Only Putin and Trump, but they are on side with it, in what appears to be a great 3 party treaty where Europe old money fronted by Zelenskyy and Princess Ursula is up against the most unbeatable military alliance ever formed in this world.

          1. Sorry , I generally don’t understand a lot of what you Ozzies are saying most of the time nor your references so if some wisdom was imparted to me I missed it .

            The Globalists are Satanists and are in cahoots with the Religion of Peace with the ultimate goal of taking Israel .

            Every government seems filled with Satanists these days and Israel probably has it’s share too .

            Anyone with a lick of sense knows the only way to peace in Israel is to let them fight it out and winner take all , which is what’s happening .

            Many seem to conveniently forget all the missiles launched Israel’s way and the suicide bombers etc. and the way of life they have had to endure for far too long .

            Their patience and good will towards their wanna be destroyers has apparently reached its limits .

            I will let the better informed determine whether tomorrow’s terrorists are being eliminated today or if we are indeed witnessing the slaughter of innocents , and undoubtedly cold cash is a contributing factor also .

            God is clearly doing a great shaking of this planet and it’s a fascinating thing to see .

            Doesn’t look like Satan is going to get his one world government in place on the first try — a relief — but he probably will regain that which he is losing before too long :

            While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

            1 Thessalonians 5 : 3

            When things simmer down , look up because there will be a sight to see .

      1. Well Elspeth, I just replied in the comments for the last article when you alleged that I try to shut matters /people down.
        As I concluded; ‘you are heaps of fun”. I do not think we will be let down on this topic.
        BTW, it would be helpful when citing the ‘bible’ passages, would you mind clarifying any citations as from the old or New Testament. Some riff raff🤪 would not even know that there are two parts.
        Then we have the Tora and …. (Forgotten🙀- Talmud?) versions with some varying attitudes like it is ok to do some things against you …. As a gentile, if you are not a Jew, etc. and some were chosen by God above the rest of humanity.
        Then other groupings have similar provisions and in India there are class based prejudices I have heard.
        Well ELSPETH, do not feel that you are being ‘shut down’ , go for it you are off running, some need some ‘ EdnaKation’ here. Many cannot express a view about anything on all this because they might be fined or even gaoled or have some , whatever it is, that people are condemned to death. (Bugger is it a Fatwah or something similar)
        All heaps of centuries of blood, conflict, thieving, killing, war and gore and IT IS ALL JUSTIFIED AND MORAL, DEPENDING ON SOME PREJUDICEs HELD BY SOME OPPOSING FOOLS.
        Oh well, at least someone must be right and just,🙀I SUPPOSE.
        Then again, maybe most are just stupid fools .
        Maybe some are on the money when they believe that all are equal in the eyes of God/Source etc or whatever and humanity should not have ideas of hate as an answer to anything.
        THAT HUMANITY IS JUST A MANIPULATED CIRCUS SHOW must be a possibility. WONDER WHAT THE OFF PLANET BEINGS Think of us.
        How silly, we are the only living beings in the empty universe with billions of years of existence.👻

        1. Ned, despite our apparent differences I have to acknowledge that there are a few points of agreement between us on this subject.
          One is that there really is an old and a new Testament, and for good reason. Not ( I think) because space aliens had anything to do with the old, but because every promise and prediction of the old is fulfilled in Christ. Jesus taught time and time again that His kingdom is not of this world, and beyond this world the “promised land” continues to be a reality.
          I remember that in past comments you indicated that you are familiar with the mischief that went on behind the Schofield Study Bible. His many Zionistic enterpretations were all based on the work of one man, John Nelson Darby. Darby was a Satan worshiping member of the East India company.
          I wonder how many Christian Zionists know that they have one of the newest religions in the world?
          Regarding off planet beings, I wonder how many people consider the “possibility” of life on other vibrational levels than that of human and animal flesh? I am sure that they all find us very silly, and for that reason I happily embrace my true identity as a village Idiot. I am not a cut above the rest, and the “normies” are my dear friends,-though I may not agree with everything they say.

          1. “Think not that I’ve come to abolish the Law and the Prophets ,I have not come to abolish, but to fulfill.”
            MATTHEW 5:17

            So perhaps you’d care to explain when this prophecy was fulfilled:

            “And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.”
            https://biblehub.com/kjv/zechariah/14.htm

          2. As there’s no record of any such thing having taken place it’s dead obvious he’s referring to something that’s up ahead.

            The same passage also confirms that honoring an Old Testament decree will be central to said advent.

            So much for your disdain thereof

          3. To EB at 4:43.
            If there is disdain of the OT among commenters here it is not mine.
            Just had a read of the chapter so consider my first reply a knee-jerk reaction. Zecheriah is instructing the Israelites concerning the soon to come Babylonian captivity. Severe judgement also came upon the captors afterwards as you know, and there were indeed conversions among them. Remember the story of King Nebuchadnezzar? Confirmation of this timing is in the many references to the second temple both in the same chapter and in the chapters ahead. God is not a friend of any third temple.
            So in this case, King, Lord of Hosts =God the Father.

            You don’t agree with me I know, but If you feel the need to draw it further can I suggest waiting until the other commenters have finished having their go. Not everyone is like us, and Ned may well not be the only person who has negative feelings about our debates.

          4. The nationS, plural
            If he meant Babylon he would have said Babylon
            There’s no record, biblical or otherwise, of said empire “worshiping the King, the LORD of hosts” or “keeping the feast of tabernacles”.
            An absurd concept if ever there was!

          5. Empires do not worship God, people do that as individuals. Yes, Babylon really was and empire, sucking in a plurality of nations.

            I think the real reason that some people do not like our debates is because they prefer to believe you- regarding both Testaments.
            If the Bible was to become the rational behind depriving people of their rights, stealing all they have, and calling their babies “future terrorists” what better reason would there be for rejecting it as a whole? People who become separated from their creator begin to feel comfortable that way. God is bound by His sinless nature to be a just judge, but He is also a Father. His desire is pour out loving kindness and abundant blessings on people of all nations. The Bible contains a History of His dealings with man, but it also contains the gospel of Christ, through whom all those lost souls can be redeemed to their salvation. Jesus Christ has nothing to do with your hostility to the Palestinians, or any other people who have the misfortune to be living in so called “Greater Israel”. You present a lot of mean spirited stuff here, and it is a stumbling block to many souls.

          6. Jesus is on record as saying:

            “Think not that I’ve come to abolish the Law and the Prophets,I have not come to abolish, but to fulfill.”

            If, as you insist, every Old Testament prediction had been fulfilled as of 33 A.D. said Word would have been void.

            Here’s another, very obviously unfulfilled one that complements Zech 14:

            “This is the message that was revealed to Isaiah son of Amoz concerning Judah and Jerusalem:
            In the last days the mountain of the house of the LORD will be established as the chief of the mountains;
            it will be raised above the hills, and all nations will stream to it.
            And many peoples will come and say: “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD,
            to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us His ways so that we may walk in His paths.”
            For the law will go forth from Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
            Then He will judge between the nations and arbitrate for many peoples.
            They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks.
            Nation will no longer take up the sword against nation, nor train anymore for war.”
            ISAIAH 2: 1 – 4

          7. If Jesus is not yet void the word is not either. I insist that the kingdom of Jesus is not of this world, and is a reality. It is the true promised land, and its citizens the true heirs of Abraham’s promise and the true children of Israel.
            I would suggest to you that the OT has its end times as well.
            You did not get my point about Nebuchadnezza. He was one convert sure, but he just so happened to be the king of Babylon. Then again, I don’t think you care. You are not here for that.
            So what do you require of me now?
            That I perfectly understand everything in the Bible?
            I do not, neither do you and neither does anyone.
            I can no more satisfy you than you can satisfy an atheist on his Jonah in the fish question.
            I admit that I am sick of our debates too.
            If you wish to take that as a concession of defeat, you are welcome.
            You won the ego battle, so get yourself a beer.

    1. The truth about Gaza is known by the fact that the purveyors OF SUCH MURDEROUS INTENT haven’t been likewise targeted

        1. O. K, let’s see the footage of Jews spitting on the pro-Hamas crew, expressing murderous intent etc

          1. For gods sake, who really controls ‘Hamas’ , who knew what was going to happen on 7th October, it was allowed to happen by reducing the security. For an excuse to take Gaza.
            Have you never seen Jews spitting on Christian’s in Israel. Have you still not worked out the zionists terrorist’s form, the King David hotel, operation Suzannah, the mass murders of crewmen on the USS LIBERTY FOR TWO HOURS HOURS, for just a few examples of the Zionist nature. I think there is a lot more to come🤪⚖️

    1. Waking Up From The Nightmare Of Western Civilization
      Caitlin Johnstone
      We don’t need horror movies. We’re creating our own horrors in places like Gaza.
      We don’t need dystopian fiction. We’re living in dystopia right here in our own society.
      We don’t need fantasy stories about scary monsters. The scary monsters run our government.

  1. Major MH370 Videos Update – Gorgon Stare & Air Force Research Labs Papers
    MH370 videos are real
    Plasma orbs,free energy,endothermic teleportation and more.
    MH370 ‘satellite’ video is actually Gorgon Stare Increment 2 with ARGUS integration.

    Air Force is the only one who uses Gorgon Stare. I take another look at Eric Davis’ work with the AFRL and find a major discovery.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IF7L-dV415A

  2. If our world had no such thing as any religion, what excuse would mankind find for creating wars with which to make money? An old saying is, religion is the root of all evil. I believe a very true saying.

    It is amazing that no matter what the subject is being debated there always seems to be some bigot bringing up religion.

    I have yet to see any proof of a need for ANY religion. All the stories are handed down by word of mouth from mostly uneducated tribal witch doctors. ( uneducated in our sense of education) Most people when religions started to appear could neither read nor write or even chisel into stone. No sense of basic science springs up in both Testaments of the Holy Bible. The answer given to such a statement is ” it was given or created by God “, “there is no reason to know or question why”. Or that statement is only a parable to explain such and such.

    If there be a God or comparable being, why have all the massive crimes like which are happening now to the Palestinians by the Israelis allowed to happen to “God’s people”. After all, is he not able to create miracles? Such as PEACE between people of differing views.

    1. Polytheism was successful in India for a long long time, if anyone came along with some new god they would just add it in, no problem. When the political leader ( king etc ) starts associating himself with the god it becomes difficult.

      1. The Bolsheviks tried their thing for a while too. Not too bad from a depopulation standpoint. There is always some good, but a terrible lot of good compost as well.

    2. “I have yet to see any proof of a need for ANY religion”

      Well come to that there’s no proof of a need for our existence

        1. Add an extra “o” to the word “God” and many atheists know Him better than the Christian Zionists.

  3. The Zionists know their genocide will be televised, so they have their bogus stories about why they are doing what they are doing, but if there was no television and nobody was watching they would be using the trains and gas chambers. The Arab leadership is not much concerned with the fate of their underclasses, they want seats at the Globalist table with their elite buddies. Remember the big cold-war chess tournament story long ago, the big story was Bobby Fisher was kicking Boris Spassky under the table. As long as everything is hidden inside BlackRock we will never find out who has been kicking who, the best clue is when somebody like Mountbatten suddenly gets exploded.

  4. Two mass genocides in such a short time period. This period between 2021 and 2025, still ongoing is not for human life to be proud. Admittedly the crimes against Palestinians started back in 1947, thanks to the British Government when they presented a portion of Palestine to the Israelis. That portion has has been growing ever since because of the greed of the Zionists. Now that same Zionist ideology wants to take over the rest of the planet using a “killer vaccine” to depopulate the planet.

  5. From 2:54:
    “How could the Israelis have been so blind( as to not anticipate 7 Oct)
    Because its military and security elites fell into a western trap believing that everyone in the world was like them; governed by reason and self-interest.
    This arrogant delusion may have been the result of half the IDF top brass having been taught at Harvard.
    Well let’s hope, let’s hope that Israel has now woken from this trance.
    But the West is still telling itself the same fantasy”
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXRbWE7EFNA

    1. For anyone who’s not completely blind the crescent moon on the flag waving in the back-ground picture is a constant reminder of what every Islamist cause is really based on and where all those who get sucked in are ultimately heading:

      “When you look to the heavens and see the sun and moon and stars—all the host of heaven—do not be enticed to bow down and worship what the LORD your God has apportioned to all the nations under heaven.
      Yet the LORD has taken you and brought you out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be the people of His inheritance, as you are today.”
      DEUTERONOMY 4: 19 – 20

      1. I do not attack “Israelis”. If it was my lot to be born there I would find a better place to bring up my children though. I do not defend Islam, but recognize that like other things, names can be stolen. The name “Jesus” does not belong to your third temple messiah either. Building a third temple is a direct mockery of everything that Jesus stands for and is. I notice that you people also desire to repeat OT events, and consider that you are not satisfied with the work that He finished on the cross. You do not agree with me, and I am at peace with that. How can we expect to be the same if we do not have the same Messiah?

        1. “The Prophetic Return to Israel and the Third Temple

          ‘I will bring back my exiled people Israel; they will rebuild the ruined cities and live in them. They will plant vineyards and drink their wine; they will make gardens and eat their fruit. I will plant Israel in their own land, never again to be uprooted from the land I have given them.’ (Amos 9:14–15)

          So many skeptics around the globe like to proclaim that God has rejected the People of Israel and that Israel has been rebirthed by man alone. Yet, we find in Scripture that God never intended to reject His People forever:

          ‘You, Israel, My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, Descendant of Abraham My friend, you whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called from its remotest parts and said to you, ‘You are My servant, I have chosen you and not rejected you.’ (Isaiah 41:9)

          God always planned to bring the Jewish People back to the Land on His terms not man’s. And just as the prophets foretold, the Jewish People are returning to the Holy Land from the four corners of the earth after 19 centuries of global exile:
          Reserve your free bible now

          ‘Do not fear, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from the east, And gather you from the west. I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’ And to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’ Bring My sons from afar And My daughters from the ends of the earth.’ (Isaiah 43:5–6)”
          https://www.messianicbible.com/feature/end-time-prophecy-why-is-the-third-temple-so-important/

          1. I have already pointed out to you that it is outstandingly silly to take the words of the teachers who spoke before the BC restoration of Israel and to recycle them into the future. I am well aware that these interpretations are already as mainstream as abc news. They all originate from political ambition, and not from a desire for truth. No need to ask me about another per-restoration prophesy, because you already know my answer.

          2. So this already happened too you reckon:

            “I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.”

            https://biblehub.com/bsb/zechariah/12.htm

            https://biblehub.com/bsb/zechariah/13.htm

            All of it already happened because it would otherwise just be too distasteful

            Well said delusion sure does tee up with getting sucked into the Hamas cause

          3. “Full Preterism is Full of Error:

            Christianity promotes a full-orbed world-and-life view that flows out of the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments. For a worldview to be an actual, complete, holistic worldview it must deal with both the world’s beginning at creation as well as its ending at the consummation — and all that lies in between. Thus, it should show where history came from and where it will end.

            The Biblical Science Institute has powerfully demonstrated that the Christian worldview is firmly rooted in Scripture, even generating the creation science that flows out of it. This presents us with special-revelation evidence for the personal, rational, divine origin of the earth and the universe. Though founded in creation, a proper worldview analysis does not end with the original creation. It must proceed all the way to the consummate new creation. Creation provides us with a proper protology, which requires as its counterpart an appropriate eschatology.”
            https://biblicalscienceinstitute.com/theology/full-preterism-is-full-of-error/

          4. The following passage is just one of many that pinpoints the folly of railroading prophecy:

            “For unto us a child IS born, unto us a son IS given, and the government will be upon His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

            Of the increase of his government there will be NO END. He will reign on the THRONE OF DAVID and over his kingdom, to establish and sustain it with justice and righteousness from that time and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of Hosts will accomplish this.”
            ISAIAH 9:6 – 7

            According to preterist logic the use of the present tense in said passage can only mean that:

            a) The nativity took place in 739 BC or thereabouts

            or

            b) The passage is about some other un-named,anomalous inconsequential Jew king or other, hence the reference to the THRONE OF DAVID

            Which one is it?

          5. You are critical of interpretations from outside of your Darby/Schofield tradition, yet you present here as one who has not looked beyond. You bring your questions to the hicks in the sticks hoping they will make an error so that you can feel vindicated. This is not a way to get to truth on any subject. I am at least familiar with your interpretations.

          6. That doesn’t go anywhere near my question

            Which is hardly surprising, given the fact that each & everyone of your other “replies” amounts to the self-same equivocation

          7. Well as I do not know who the strawman that has to answer a or b is, the question is probably not my business. I have never claimed that the OT is not all about Christ, I very much think the opposite. My objection has been about recycling the prophesies about the BC restoration of Israel into the future, and attributing them to a people to whom they don’t belong. You already know what I think the “Israel of God” is, and who I think is the Temple of God.

          8. And you also know where I think Christ’s kingdom is.
