Let’s start with what you think the international reaction, if any, will be for the what will soon be indictments and arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu. Yeah, I think Shakespeare weighs in on this. Sound and fury means nothing. You know, it adds a bad public relations view for the Israelis, but in the ultimate kiss your sister moment, this ICC, frankly, they’re notoriously corrupt. Jack Smith, the prosecutor of Donald Trump, he was at the ICC and there, you know, there’s credible allegations that he was involved with shaking down other countries. In other words, saying, hey, pay us some money and we won’t indict you.
So the fact that they politicized this in such a way, because I think both as Alistair’s pointed out and Scott Ritter has written about, the attack by Hamas on October 7th was not a terrorist attack. It was a military operation with two clear objectives. Objective one, attack and destroy Israeli military bases on the perimeter. They did that. Defeated the Galani brigade in one instance. And second, take hostages that could be used as bargaining chips to release more than 3000 Palestinians that were being held that had been taken hostage by the Israeli government.
And so, but to treat Hamas in the same way that they’re treating Bibi Netanyahu and crowd who are legitimately killing women and children. The Israelis keep touting that all Hamas has killed all the, they murdered these 40 babies. Give us the names. Give us the names. List them out. They have it because it didn’t happen. The Hamas did not murder a bunch of babies. They weren’t beheading babies. They weren’t baking babies in ovens. It’s a lie. And it’s really a damn lie. It’s damn double, uh, because it’s untrue. It’s damn double because so many Americans, including members of the house of representatives, believe it.
Well, you just said about baking babies. I mean, the phrase is repellent. Was repeated by the speaker of the house of representatives when he was on the Columbia university campus, Mike Johnson, uh, a few weeks ago. Either they believe it, in which case they’re incredibly naive or they don’t believe it. In which case they’re lying for political purposes. I’m not sure which is worse because they have the power of the purse and just sent another 20 billion, uh, uh, to the Israelis. [tr:trw].
