The world’s silence is deafening.

The worlds silence is deafening becasue it has become accustomed to the thuggish behaviour of Israel. After what Israel din to Lebanon, nothing surprises the world anymore.
It is hard to see it as anything but a punitive measure, and thus a war crime. (Little wonder they want Hizbollah disarmed. They’re not used to anyone fighting back.)
It is getting increasingly hard to distinguish Israel’s actions from its former ally, the Aparthide South African regime. And the founders of that, Voerwood and Voester, were Nazi allies or sympathisers.
How it all goes around. A favourite ploy of the Nazis to suppress resistance was to take out ten civilians for every German killed. This seems to have been the aim in the West Bank and Lebanon.
The abused and oppressed are now the abusers and oppressors. The biggest disaster the world has ever seen is Israel. If this isn’t world war 3 then what is?
The only difference in this world war is that the screaming and suffering at the hands of the western oppressors is hidden through our own media system, and the screams and cries for help of the suffering people is filtered and what we are told is a total different story. If all the media systems are singing the same false songs then we recognize the false songs as reality when it clearly is not. The biggest tool in favour of the western oppressors and abusers is this media system.
No one seems to care,about all the innocent people that have been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan,but when someone is killed in the west,by terrorists,it is fed to us every time our TV news omes on the air,this is then repeated all day,and yet those killed in Iraq and Afghanistan,were also killled by terrorists,under the umbrella of DEMOCRACY
