Invitation to Stop Averting Your Eyes from Gaza

27

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.

      • 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 .

        • 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.

      • 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.👻

        • 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.

          • “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.”

  3. “stop-averting-your-eyes-from-gaza”

    A snide way of inflaming the sort of murderous intent called out here:

    The truth about Gaza is known by the fact that the purveyors haven’t been likewise targeted

      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.

  7. 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.
