๐Ÿค”Obama's Hollow Condemnations of Israel: The Irony of a Nobel Laureate's War Record ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธโš”๐ŸŒ

Recently, former U.S. President Barack Obama expressed his concerns over Israel's actions in Gaza, stating that such measures could "harden Palestinian attitudes for generations" and possibly diminish global backing for Israelโ€‹. While his words resonate with a semblance of truth, it's profoundly ironic and cynical coming from a man whose tenure witnessed a plethora of unlawful military aggressions.

Under Obama's watch, the drones buzzed relentlessly in the skies of Afghanistan and Pakistan, sowing fear and death. His administration also provided substantial support to Saudi Arabia's merciless war on Yemen. The trails of destruction further extend to Libya, Syria, and Iraq, where his policies fuelled conflict and engendered a humanitarian crisis. The 2014 Israeli invasion of Gaza saw 2,251 Palestinians perish, including 551 children, with Obama at the helm of the U.S., showcasing a stark discrepancy between his recent statements and past (brutal) actions.

Moreover, the facade of a Nobel Peace laureate, a title bestowed upon him in 2009, crumbles under the weight of his (illegal) war-laden legacy. His complicity and the duplicitous standards displayed throughout his presidency erode the moral high ground he now seemingly attempts to occupy. He did not lead by example when it came to upholding the sanctity of innocent lives amidst profitable interventions.

The audacity of Obama's recent remarks unveils him as nothing but controlled opposition, crafted to maintain an illusion of a humane West. While his protege, Biden, allows the merciless bombardment and dehumanization of Gazans to go unchecked. Will the real culprits behind the wanton destruction ever step out of the shadows, or will they continue to masquerade behind a veneer of righteousness, with Obama as their poster child?

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆโš”๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บA Glimmer of Pragmatism in a Sea of Hawkish Delirium: Could Ramaswamy be the Unlikely Voice of Reason?

In a political landscape marred by hawkish postures and unyielding antagonism, businessman Vivek Ramaswamy, aspiring for a Republican presidential nomination, proffers a refreshingly pragmatic stance. He advocates for a swift resolution in Ukraine, endorsing the transfer of Russian-speaking regions to Russia and NATO's staunch refusal of Kiev. Ramaswamy underscores the perilous trajectory of further U.S. military entanglement in Ukraine, cautioning against the unwitting bolstering of Moscow-Beijing camaraderie.

His assertions resound with a rare realism, veering away from the vilifying narrative often weaponized against Russia. Yet, one can't help but wonder: Is this pragmatic discourse a herald of a more rational U.S. foreign policy, or merely a fleeting aberration soon to be drowned out by the cacophony of mainstream belligerence?

The grotesque revelry of Senator Mitch McConnell, as he gleefully lauds over $100 billion in US aid to Ukraine as the best money spent to "weaken" their primary adversary, Russia, lays bare the heart of darkness within the US establishment. His sinister grin is a haunting spectacle that belies a ghastly realityโ€”the utter contempt for the half a million Ukrainian lives extinguished all for Western delusions of weakening Russia. The sardonic satisfaction dripping from McConnell's words unveils a chilling truth: to the establishment, Ukraine is but a sacrificial lamb led to slaughter on the altar of their unyielding vendetta against Russia.

The sanctimonious stance adopted by the establishment, veiled in a facade of moral high ground, is laid bare in its grotesque reality: a cold, calculated playbook wrought with utter contempt for human life. This stark juxtaposition between Ramaswamy's sane proposition and the establishment's hawkish delirium evokes a biting query: What is the real agenda of Ramaswamy's candidacy?

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿค”โ€Where's Bibiโ€™s boy?โ€

Israeli soldiers have criticized Benjamin Netanyahu's 32-year-old son Yair for "abandoning" them by staying in Miami while 360,000 reservists are called up to fight against Hamas.

Danilov's son like Netanyahuโ€™s son is resting in Miami, and advises others to fight - the British publication writes that Ukrainian history has repeated itself in Israel.

"Yair stayed in Miami, to the annoyance of some soldiers. "Yair is enjoying life in Miami Beach while I'm on the front line," one soldier said.

"It is we who leave our jobs, our families, our children to protect our families at home and in the country, and not the people who are responsible for this situation.

Our brothers, our fathers, our sons are all going to the front, but Yair is still not here. This does not help to strengthen confidence in the country's leadership."


Another, sent to the border with the Gaza Strip, said: "I came from the States where I have a job, a life, my family. I cannot stay there and leave my country, my people at this critical time. Where is the Prime Minister's son? Why isn't he in Israel? This is the most unifying moment for us Israelis in our recent history, and each of us should be here right now, including the Prime Minister's son."

๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ’ฒ๐Ÿ“‰๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ˜ญ The EU is ready to allocate only half of the planned amount of funding to Ukraine for next year - 9 billion euros, not 18.

This was announced by Oleksii Sobolev, the
Deputy Minister of Economy of Ukraine.

The total amount of promised funding for four years is 50 billion euros. Of these, 39 billion will be used to cover the budget deficit.

โ€œWe are now working with the Europeans so that 18 billion of these 39 billion will come next year,โ€ Sobolev said during the telethon.

Negotiations are ongoing. In his opinion, the final decision of the EU may become known in December.

๐Ÿป Whatโ€™s the point of having an economy department in the Ukrainian government when they depend on handouts?

Ukrainian fighter Evgeniy Diky complains in a conversation with the publication โ€œUkrainian Weekโ€ that the Armed Forces of Ukraine do not have enough people . But no one wants to join the army, because it is a one-way ticket.

โ€œIn the meantime , you can leave the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine because of a cemetery or disability ... In no case do I propose to immediately return home all experienced fighters. Then the front will simply collapse,โ€ he noted.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐ŸšซIsrael's Cynical Defiance with the UN: A Condemnation Wrapped in Hypocrisy

In a recent development, Israel has proclaimed to deny visas to UN officials, showcasing its escalating discord with the global body and basic international norms. This announcement comes in the aftermath of UN Chief Guterres's critique on Israel's actions in Gaza, which, albeit indirect, highlighted the suffocating 56-year occupation Palestinians have endured.

Israel's Ambassador to the UN, Gilad Erdan, โ€˜woundedโ€™ by Guterres's remarks, declared this visa ban as a lesson for the UN, marking a new low in Israel-UN relations. The Israeli Foreign Ministry even demanded Guterres's resignation, accusing him of showing understanding towards terror. Meanwhile 6,500 Gazans are now dead.

The US's unflinching support for Israelโ€™s brutal bombardment, epitomized by its veto against a humanitarian pause, unveils an abominable alliance steeped in hypocrisy. As Secretary of State Antony Blinken peddles a resolution that conveniently skirts around a full ceasefire, the US's facade of being a broker for peace shatters, revealing a sinister agenda that holds human lives in contemptโ€‹.

Israelโ€™s visa ban, a petulant retort to justifiable global reproach, is a damning testament to its audacious defiance of international norms and law. The merciless veil of Western geopolitics continues to suffocate the cries for humanity in Gaza. Amidst this grim narrative, one can't help but brood over a harrowing query: When will the masquerade of moral righteousness crumble to reveal the grotesque face of the Israeli-US cynical political agenda?
