2014 Gerald and Maas Suppressed News - Occupied Gaza

2014 Gerald and Maas Suppressed News --  



Israel continues its oppression of
Gaza with direct military actions against a civilian population. These
are covered in major media as a response to the desperate firing of
rockets at Israel by militants, without military effect. Palestinian
President Mahmud Abbas defines Israel's policy as genocide. On July 9th
he told an emergency meeting of Palestinian leadership: “What’s
happening now is a war against the Palestinian people as a whole and not
against the (militant) factions" ( Al Arabiya). The UN Security
Council has not intervened and attempts to de-escalate the crisis have
failed. What is happening now is the continuation of an established
policy. Night's Lantern first noted a genocide warning for Gaza in 2006, with ten additional warnings in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2012, and 2013 (see "Genocide warnings and updates"). Francis Boyle at the Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Commission
on November 21, 2012 clarified Israel's policy as genocide in his
argument before the court. Israel, with a claim to represent world Jewry
is risking the entire religious group to retribution. In France for
example, Jews as innocent of violence as Gazans begin to suffer random
acts of violence and increased anti-Semitism: an estimated 5000 will
emigrate to Israel this year. Israel's need for settlement space will
increase. A cycle of catastrophe is in progress.     Partial sources online: "Gaza genocide and criminal rogue Israel," Francis Boyle, July 11, 2014, Press TV; "Abbas: Israel committing ‘Genocide’ in Gaza," Staff, July 9, 2014, Al Arabiya News; "Number of French Jews Emigrating to Israel Rises," Dan Bilefsky, June 20, 2014, The New York Times; graphic from 2009.
