President Biden’s reelection campaign sent a memo to news outlets Tuesday asserting that there’s disparity in the way the media has covered polling, so far, following the coverage of the latest set…
If it is true that “arabs see US as complicit in Israel’s Gaza war”, then it is up to yourself to help them see the actual truth and not the lies.
The US is complicit from vetoing the UN ceasefire to arming and bankrolling Israel’s genocide. I am sure deep down you are a good person except misled. The truth is as Arabs and the rest of the world see it. If you don’t care about Palestinians lives -which is apparent- you should at least care about the US’s image.
Here are some key quotes from a Financial Times article titled “Rush by west to back Israel erodes developing countries’ support for Ukraine”
“We have definitely lost the battle in the Global South,” said one senior G7 diplomat. “All the work we have done with the Global South [over Ukraine] has been lost . . . Forget about rules, forget about world order. They won’t ever listen to us again.”
Many developing countries have traditionally supported the Palestinian cause, seeing it through the prism of self-determination and a push against the global dominance of the US, Israel’s most important backer.
“What we said about Ukraine has to apply to Gaza. Otherwise we lose all our credibility,” the senior G7 diplomat added. “The Brazilians, the South Africans, the Indonesians: why should they ever believe what we say about human rights?”
Since last Sunday, many of those officials told the Financial Times they have had the same argument read back at them in demands for condemnation of Israel’s retaliatory assault on Gaza, and of its decision to restrict water, electricity and gas supplies there.
“I mean, let’s be frank. This is a gift from heaven for Russia,” said a senior EU official. “I think it’s damaging what’s happening . . . because Russia is exploiting the crisis and saying, ‘Look, the global order that has been built after the second world war is not working for you,’ and addressing 1bn inhabitants in the Middle East or in the Arab world.”
“What New Delhi, Jakarta and Brasília want to see is a common position on these issues, and consistency. And if they don’t see that . . . then on the major global issues there’s a certain danger EU, G7, Nato will not be taken seriously,” said Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, former Nato secretary-general.
“We, the west, do not call the shots any more, and the Global South says: ‘Please, we have a voice as well which you have neglected for some time,’” added de Hoop Scheffer, now chair of the Clingendael Institute, a Dutch think-tank.
In 2004 I couldn’t wait to vote for John Kerry on the hopes he will put an end to the Bush’s war on terror. In 2008 and 2012 I watched Obama promise and underdeliver, specially on the never-ending wars. In 2016 I voted for Clinton because Trump was apparently worse. In 2020 I voted for Biden despite knowing he is a Zionist and warmonger because I hoped he was still a decent person that acknowledges basic facts like climate change and maybe the progressives can push him to the left. I have now learned I have been scammed and fearmongered into voting Democratic, only to get a massive genocide.
The carnage in Gaza exceeds anything I witnessed my whole life in terms of scale. The number of children dead exceeds anything I saw my whole life. You may be kept in the dark about what’s going on in Palestine and so I encourage you to get informed.
Hamas still had hundreds of hostages. Why the heck would we want a ceasefire until Hamas is gone? All the civilians of Gaza are the chief victims of Hamas. So if you don’t want Hamas gone than it sounds like YOU are anti-Palestianian.
If you don’t care about Palestinians lives -which is apparent
Gaza has lots of Christians and lots of people who are my ethnic group. So I am supposed to care about them more than any other country? I care about all lives. You caring only about people of 1 specific religion and 1 specific ethnic group sounds completely idiotic to me.
