Facing ugly facts about AmerIsrael

by Mr. Chuckles, Unknown News       July 31, 2006

Recent reports of the use by Israel of depleted uranium (DU) weapons in Lebanon, if true, nail shut the coffin on the fabled American "Empire."

For that would mark the third country in which AmerIsraelian forces have recently used "dirty bombs." First Afghanistan, then Iraq, and now Lebanon.

These sorts of weapons are what Jose Padilla was supposed to have been thinking about constructing, according to John Ashcroft who panicked America with the mere idea of dirty bombs going off in American cities, rendering them uninhabitable.

If Israel has indeed done this thing using American made DU weapons, then we finally see the pattern. AmerIsrael is not simply destroying Arab/Islamic countries, it is ruining their lands and poisoning their genomes, their DNA. This is an unforgivable war crime.

 
America is doomed to years, even decades of wars; and in the meantime it will either start using thermonuclear bombs to hurry things along, or finish going bankrupt.

Or both.

Either way, the America of our public school indoctrination is finished, if it ever existed.
If another country did this to AmerIsrael, we would not hesitate to nuke them until nothing was left but glassy plains and smoking craters.

In ancient times, a conquering army would burn a town and rubbleize the buildings so that not even two stones were left standing together. And then the conquerors would sow salt to create a wasteland incapable of sustaining human life. What AmerIsrael does now is far worse.

The crime of using nuclear weapons, even if "depleted," is an act of slow-motion genocide. And it is an act of terrorism. However much that word is overused in these times, it is surely accurate when nation-state terrorists use depleted uranium weapons to "Shock and Awe" civilian populations into compliance and utter submission.

In effect they are saying, "If you resist us we will destroy your bloodlines. Abominations will grow in the wombs of your women even as cancers multiply inside your bodies and oozing ulcers fester and boil on your skin."

I have seen the pictures of Iraqi babies. Most American disdain to even look at the handiwork of their government of butchers.

There is no doubt whatsoever that America has committed the most unforgivable war crimes in Afghanistan and Iraq. Israel has apparently committed similar actions in Palestine and Lebanon using American weapons and money. The DU weapons are not the only crime of war either.

For how shall the Iraqis forgive Abu Ghraib, where 90% of America's prisoners were innocent but held without charges, and
 

where the most heinous, sexually degrading acts were performed on Iraqi men, and even women and children?

And how shall the Iraqis forgive Americans taking hostage the families of men who happened not to be at home when the soldiers came to arrest them?

And how shall the Iraqis forgive the Americans who raped and murdered a 15 year old girl and then murdered her entire family?

The simple fact is, what AmerIsrael have done is not humanly forgivable. What we — we — have done was not done in self defense, nor was it proportionate to any grievances we held. We are in fact, the invading, occupying forces. We are using radioactive bombs, torture, and kidnapping against civilians in order to achieve our political and economic objectives.

We do not occupy the moral high ground (I doubt that we ever did in the Middle East).

Without any moral justification for our war crimes, barring total genocide and thus compounding our crimes, there is no hope for peace with our enemies.

The only possibility for peace is this: We withdraw our troops from Islamic nations. We apologize sincerely. And we pay reparations.

Unfortunately AmerIsrael is broke, and few Americans perceive the situation in this way, so apologies will not be forthcoming under any conceivable circumstances. And of course, our fearless chickenhawk civilian leadership controls enough nuclear weapons to hold the entire planet hostage, so withdrawal is not in their interests, not politically nor economically.

My opinion therefore, is that America is doomed to years, even decades of wars; and in the meantime it will either start using thermonuclear bombs to hurry things along, or finish going bankrupt. Or both. (Our guerrilla opponents spend just $1 to force the Bush administration to spend $100,000 — which must be borrowed from abroad before being ladled out in heaping portions to corporate friends of Bush and other politicians!)

Either way, the America of our public school indoctrination is finished, if it ever existed.

What comes afterwards is anyone's guess.

Israelis rain down deadly DU on Lebanese civilians
  Excerpt: Esteemed depleted uranium expert Dr. Doug Rokke is pointing the finger at Israel for using deadly and illegal depleted uranium (DU) munitions against the Lebanese people which were sold to them by the U.S. government...

Mysterious wounds from
Israeli shells in Gaza
 Excerpt: "I feel chemicals. I feel high heat, I feel high pain," he elaborates in English, both legs heavily bandaged, as patients and visitors brush past in a crowded corridor of Gaza's Al-Shifa hospital.

"They found shrapnel with 'test' written on it," he shouts.

Iraqi cancers, birth defects
blamed on U.S. depleted uranium
 Excerpt: The study is believed to be the first to look at inhaled DU among Gulf War veterans, using the ultra-sensitive technique of thermal ionization mass spectrometry, which enabled them to easily distinguish between natural uranium and DU.

The study, which examined British, Canadian and U.S. veterans, all suffering typical Gulf War Syndrome ailments, found that, nine years after the war, 14 of 27 veterans studied had DU in their urine. DU also was found in the lung and bone of a deceased Gulf War veteran.

Nothing depleted
about 'depleted uranium'
 Excerpt: Is this not radioactive genocide, especially when our troops used and continue to use most of the depleted uranium munitions in densely populated areas such as Baghdad and Fallujah? Depleted uranium has a half-life of billions of years. Consequently, Iraq will be a wasteland forever and essentially uninhabitable for anyone.

The doctor,
the Depleted Uranium
and the dying children
 Excerpt: The Doctor, the Depleted Uranium, and the Dying Children, an award winning documentary film produced for German television by Freider Wagner and Valentin Thurn, and released by Ochoa-Wagner Production in 2004 in Germany, exposes the use and impact of radioactive weapons during the current war against Iraq. The story is told by citizens of many nations and opens with comments by two British veterans, Kenny Duncan and Jenny Moore, describing their exposure to radioactive, so-called ‘depleted’ uranium (DU), weapons and the congenital abnormalities of their children. Dr. Siegwart-Horst Günther, a former colleague of Albert Schweitzer, and Tedd Weyman of the Uranium Medical Research Center traveled to Iraq, from Germany and Canada respectively, to assess uranium contamination in Iraq.

Redefining war crimes
out of existence
 Excerpt: The Washington Post today details how the Bush administration is desperately scrambling to get Congress to pass a law to retroactively legalize torture. ...

Bush administration seeks shield from war crimes prosecution
 Excerpt: An obscure law approved by a Republican-controlled Congress a decade ago has made the Bush administration nervous that officials and troops involved in handling detainee matters might be accused of committing war crimes, and prosecuted at some point in U.S. courts.

Senior officials have responded by drafting legislation that would grant U.S. personnel involved in the terrorism fight new protections against prosecution for past violations of the War Crimes Act of 1996. That law criminalizes violations of the Geneva Conventions governing conduct in war and threatens the death penalty if U.S.-held detainees die in custody from abusive treatment.
