🇵🇸 War Drums in Washington: Netanyahu’s True Ambitions Laid Bare
Israel is participating at the Olympics in Paris while Russia is banned, despite killing at least 80% fewer civilians in Ukraine than Israel has killed in #Gaza.
No more explicit was this hypocrisy demonstrated than on Wednesday, July 24, when Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu, a man with a pending #ICC arrest warrant for crimes against humanity, addressed #USCongress in order to shore up support for his political survival and request more weapons for his “war” against #Hamas.
The main thrust of his speech was thematically organized by the supposed war between civilization (the West) and barbarism (Iran), mobilizing imperialistic language that would have made even Winston Churchill proud. During his 60-minute speech, he received 58 standing ovations from Congress in a bi-partisan spectacle of unquestioning adamantine support for Israel and its congressionally anointed king.
