The hasbara of the Zionists in apartheid Israel must surely be wearing thin even for them.
Recently, it did not take much for Israel to accuse no less than the Prime Ministers of both Spain and Belgium of supporting terrorism, after each made comments at a press conference on the situation in Gaza.
Speaking near the Rafah border crossing with Egypt, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and his Belgian counterpart Alexander de Croo laid the blame for the suffering of Palestinian civilians in Gaza on Israel, with Sánchez calling for European Union recognition of a Palestinian state, saying Spain might do so on its own. De Croo said that “A military operation needs to respect international humanitarian law. The killing of civilians needs to stop now. Way too many people have died. The destruction of Gaza is unacceptable,” adding that, “We cannot accept that a society is being destroyed the way it is being destroyed,”
Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen lashed out at the two leaders, condemning “the false claims of the prime ministers of Spain and Belgium who give support to terrorism,” claiming that “Israel is acting according to international law.”
So there it is. Hasbara in action once again, targetted at world leaders. A few weeks into the Israeli assault on Gaza, Israel attacked the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres for pointing out that the Hamas attack of October 7 “did not happen in a vacuum”. For this, he was accused by Israel of “vile antisemitic speech” and of justifying the alleged terrorism by Hamas. (See, for example, the BBC’s policy on not calling terrorist those whom some consider militants and freedom fighters).
The problem Zionists face in their publicly stated goal of eradicating Hamas – like so much vermin – is that people know the truth. Hamas’s charter may say it wants to wipe Israel off the map, but the facts tell us that Zionists have already wiped Palestine off the map, and since have not stopped trying to wipe Palestinians from their native lands. (Furthermore, unlike the extreme far right Zionists, of which there are many currently in the Israeli regime, Hamas’s charter categorically does not call for harm to Jews or for forcing them out of Palestine. Indeed, Article 16 of the 2017 Charter states: “Hamas affirms that its conflict is with the Zionist project and not with the Jews because of their religion. Hamas does not wage a struggle against the Jews because they are Jewish, but wages a struggle against the Zionists who occupy Palestine.”).
Truth will out, and is coming out. Unwittingly, Zionists hasten Israel’s self-inflicted demise as they attempt to bury the truth and smear everyone who states it.
It can no longer be denied that in its current Zionist guise, Israel is a criminal state founded on ethnic cleansing and apartheid, and it continues to murder, oppress and dispossess an innocent people for the purpose of stealing more of their land. That is the truth, and it is time to tell it as it is.
Jews will need to renounce the supremacism proclaimed by Zionism on their behalf, and learn to live with Palestinians and Arabs peacefully and respectfully, as Jews had done for millennia, before European Zionism destroyed that ancient coexistence for the benefit of a very few.
