    Makes one wonder what kind of retribution seeking people the Zionist Israel’s are creating right now. The U.S. is fully onboard with what’s happening.

      Genocide can work out fine for the colonizers. The Americas are mostly filled with their descendants, or descendants of those they enslaved and brought over.

      You don’t need to speculate. Al Qaida is a direct result of foreign intervention in Afghanistan one generation previously.

        Operation cyclone by the CIA (plus extra help from the Saudis) funneled funds and weaponry through Pakistan to Bin Laden (a rich Saudi). It essentially created and organised MaK (that would later become Al Qaeda) by funding and training Islamic militants in Afghanistan to fight and overthrow the Marxist government of Afghanistan.

        After the government fell, the Taliban took control, Bin Laden officially created Al Qaeda, flipped sides, and became anti-Saudi and anti-America because the Saudis were too tight with the US troops, preferencing them over Bin Laden’s, in operation desert shield in the Gulf War. Well that’s the story anyway…

        By this point Al Qaeda were getting mad at all the US intervention in the middle east but it’s pretty clear the US was acting as a proxy for Israel here, because Israel had “security concerns” about Iraq’s nuclear program and had even bombed their nuclear program in the years before, in 1981…

        So we could say Al Qaeda is a result of Israeli interference already back then

        Now we see the same story playing out again with Iran

      It’s sad to see a repeat of history, we’re now seeing special “anti-semetic” laws introduced again even on the other side of the world here in Australia, crushing fair and open criticism. Criticising Israel is treated as anti-semetic hate speech. Thankfully the high court of appeals sees a difference but all the other authoritarian figures and government bodies don’t…

      What comes next? It’s upsetting people all over the political spectrum
