Hang Biden – before he kills the last Palestinian still alive in Gaza

HANG BIDEN!
If justice at the end of a long rope was a fitting end for the overseers of the Nazi genocide, then it is decorous and appropriate to demand the death penalty for one of the main masterminds of the Gaza Holocaust, “Genocide Joe”.
Now is the time to demand retributive justice for Gaza’s uncounted and unmourned victims, because we don’t know who’ll die first – the genocide-enabling US President, Joe Biden, or the last Gazan to perish in his Holocaust?
We need to start calling for Biden’s neck now, or he’ll also slide out of sight behind a state funeral with all the honours like Donald Rumsfeld, one of the neocon architects of America’s “War Against Terror”.

Blood-soaked flootsteps

Natural justice demands that Biden end his days in the same way as Hermann Göring, Joachim von Ribbentrop, Wilhelm Keitel, and Benito Mussolini did – with a public execution.
His successor, be it Donald Trump of Kamala Harris, needs to know what awaits if they also follow in his blood-soaked footsteps.
We need to shatter the illusion of respectability and honour that Biden cloaks himself in, for it is a cloak that keeps other war criminals like George W Bush, Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowity and Condoleeza Rice warm at night.
We need to do it now, because “now” is always the best, most honourable and appropriate time to oppose genocide.
And don’t think the world can rely on the International Court of Justice to provide succour, or any effective protection whatsoever, to the Gazans. Israel has until July 28 next year to file a response to the 750-page evidence memoriam containing detailed evidence of genocide that South Africa handed over to the court judges on Monday.
There’s a good chance every, single Gazan will be dead by then, because Israel is showing no sign of relenting as it prosecutes its “Holocaust within a Holocaust” in northern Gaza.
ICC silent for over 5 months

The other global, war-crime-prosecuting institution, the International Criminal Court, has remained silent for over five months now as everyone other than the Gazans waits for it to approve prosecutor Karim Khan’s request for arrest warrants for Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and its genocide minister of war, Yoav Gallant.
In comparison, it took the court just three weeks to approve arrest-warrant requests against Russian President Vladimir Putin after he launched the Ukraine war.
Netanyahu’s government has already assassinated all three Hamas leaders who were also subject to Khan’s request for arrest warrants.
All the other international institutions that the West, led by the US, erected after Hitler’s WWII Holocaust to prevent genocides and to prosecute those responsible have been exposed as hollowed-out shells, ineffective and feeble.
The UN General Assembly and its Security Council can do nothing as long as the US continues providing its genocidal attack dog, Israel, with all the diplomatic, political and military cover it needs to “get the job done”.
Useful as long as you don’t use it
Indeed, given the achingly slow grinding of the ICJ’s wheels of justice, it has become apparent its only real, effective use in preventing genocide has been as a deterrent. It’s a bit like the US military, that is also useful only as long as you don’t have to use it; as soon as you start using it, you go bankrupt or run out of ammunition, public support and happy endings.
Something has to give, or something else needs to step up onto the world stage to replace Cold War institutions that serve no purpose and have long outlived the cost of their upkeep.
We need to act now, because systemic pressures and crises in the US are steadily nudging us all to World War III as Iran and Russia continue building closer military ties, pushed into an alliance made inevitable by war’s rapacious demand for weaponry. North Korea and China are also being encircled by the same war logic as the US troubles the waters around Taiwan and the South China Sea.
Polls in Israel have shown public support in Israel for the Gaza Holocaust has remained well above 80% throughout the genocide. Its politicians continue openly calling for all Palestinians to be wiped out or ethnically cleansed from the home soil that is soaked in their blood.
‘Well-behaved victims’

They’ve been roundly condemned in protest marches around the world, national leaders have blasted Israel in speeches in their parliaments, people have set themselves on fire in protest. But, still, the killing continues.
Murdered Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar asked the pertinent question back in 2021 already: “Does the world expect us to be well-behaved while we’re being killed?”
The answer has now come and the answer from a US-Nato perspective is, unfortunately, “Yes!”
It’s worthwhile taking a closer look at Sinwar’s statement at the time and the dilemma facing Gazans, who have suffered a crushing, starvation siege by Israel since 2007. Sinwar said in 2021: “Israel possesses a complete arsenal of weaponry, state-of-the-art equipment and aircraft. It intentionally bombs and kills our children and women, and they do that on purpose.
“You can’t compare that to those who resist and defend themselves with weapons that look primitive in comparison. If we had the capabilities to launch precision missiles that targeted military targets, we wouldn’t have used the rockets that we did. We are forced to defend our people with what we have, and this is what we have.
Raise the white flag?

“What are we supposed to do. Raise the white flag? That is never going to happen. Does the world expect us to be well-behaved while we’re being killed? For us to be slaughtered without making a noise? That’s impossible. We decided to defend out people with what weapons we have.”
But Hamas has raised the white flag before, despite 76 years of oppression. And, it’s even raised the white flag in response to what appeared to be genuine peace offers earlier on during the Gaza genocide.
As Associated Press reported on April 25: “ A top Hamas political official told The Associated Press the Islamic militant group is willing to agree to a truce of five years or more with Israel and that it would lay down its weapons and convert into a political party if an independent Palestinian state is established along pre-1967 borders.”
Associated Press was amazed.
“The suggestion that Hamas would disarm appeared to be a significant concession by the militant group officially committed to Israel’s destruction,” it observed at the time.
Although it is news to the West, Hamas offered to “lay down its weapons”, back in 2007, already –
a decision many observers believed prompted “Israel” to lay siege to Gaza as part of an attempt to keep Hamas internationally isolated. That siege and its enforcement saw Hamas returning to armed struggle.
Democratic ‘mistake’

Hamas had made the “mistake” of winning the election that the entire “international community” had expected Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah to win. It became the organisation democratically elected to take over Gaza and the West bank, much to America’s and Israel’s horror.
So, they immediately took steps to isolate Gazan democracy behind siege, starvation and sanctions.
Efforts to break that stranglehold, the end Israel’s “untouchability” on the world stage, to call on oversight mechanisms and institutions to fulfil their global mandates have only resulted in increasing isolation, like so many other resistance movements in other countries that have threatened America’s interests.
And America has shown itself unable to even implement its own laws that are designed to prevent US arms being sold into genocidal wars like Gaza. It’s famous “Leahy Laws” are useless, so how can we expect the US to uphold its international obligations?
Clearly, other, effective oversight mandates need to take over if we’re ever to see Biden at the end of a rope.
America is going ‘away’

And, as America careens chaotically to its latest “election”, the country split down the middle between Democrat “Blues” and Republican “Reds”, it is apposite to ask: “Where is America going?”
It has lost its crown as the world’s “defender of democracy”. It’s status as the world’s “lone superpower” is rapidly dwindling away. It has betrayed all the values it has held up to the world as shining principles for all to follow and global goodwill to all things Americans have flushed away in Biden’s wake, forever sealed into forgetfulness by congealing Gazan blood.
Where is America going? It is probably going away – the same way piped water and the Internet have also “gone away”.
People used to instal their water pipes outside their interior walls because they were a status symbol when they first appeared. But that all eventually changed and now people only think of water and a tap. The system that brought the water no longer features in conversation. Just like the Internet. Nowadays, people don’t say “I’m going to access the water reticulation system” or “I’m going to access the Internet”. They just say, “I’d like a glass of water”, or “I’ll Google it”.
America is going to disappear the same way – it will be exposed, not as a country, but “just an idea” that has been replaced by another idea, or probably another two, of Red and Blue.

In many ways, America already has “gone away”. The American Dream is already dead – that fact has been underlined in Gazan blood for over 391 days now.

Maybe, one day, all of Arabia’s “just-an-idea” countries will disappear in the same way.
