The latest Israeli massacre of Palestinians on Thursday reaffirms our belief that this rogue nation is a bloodthirsty demon.
In fact, we should describe the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) troops committing the murderous rampage under Tel Aviv's drilling as "zombies" brainwashed into reviling and shooting Palestinians like game.
In another episode of mindless atrocities, IDF troops opened fire on hungry civilians surrounding food aid trucks in Gaza City, reportedly killing 104 and injuring 760.
The Israelis simply fired off an infuriatingly banal response: they admitted the IDF troops used live fire but only because the crowd "posed a threat".
What sickening irony: the IDF seems anxious to compete with the Nazi's Holocaust, the systemic and systematic WW2 annihilation of Jews that propelled Israel's ahistorical doctrine.
We'll also be categorical: in not just mirroring the Nazis, Israelis are the new Nazis, with the Palestinians conscripted into the pitiable role of Jewish martyrdom. Weep if you must for the dead: under Israel's bidding, 65,000 Palestinians were killed between 1948 and 2021.
Retaliating with unimaginable lopsidedness against Hamas' Oct 7 counterattacks, Israel has so far slaughtered around 30,000 people in the Gaza Strip — including 9,000 children and 6,450 women. More than 7,000 Palestinians are missing, presumably dead; and two million displaced and forced into tent cities.
Israeli's siege was so maniacal that even journalists, doctors, medical staff and hospitals were deliberately targeted. Despite these diabolical numbers, the indomitable Palestinian spirit won't give up.
We wish we could do more, other than condemning Israel, boycotting products linked to it and isolating it internationally, even as several Arab states unconscionably skirted global fellowship by embracing the sinister Abraham Accords to normalise ties.
We wish the other superpowers would stop indulgent American enabling: from 1946 to 2022, the United States had funnelled an extraordinary US$150 billion stipend to Israel, 70 per cent of the sum in devastating weaponry that exterminated Palestinians, and complemented by clockwork vetoing of United Nations resolutions.
Israeli's hyper–busy public relations apparatus, abetted flagrantly by American and Western media, will predictably denounce this Leader as "anti-Semitic" — a specious and globally debunked characterisation because it walks on Orwellian absurdity.
We can disregard the apologists and sycophants who wail unctuously that Israel reserves the right to defend itself, but are wilfully blind or immune to its homicidal and genocidal mandates.
The only thing left is melancholic fantasy: Superman or Ironman comes to the Palestinians' rescue, destroys all Israeli ordnance, banishes bad actors (arms dealers in particular) and persuades legitimate leaders into game-changing negotiations.
Then can we work out if the Zionist's theft of Palestine is reversible or whether the two–state solution is practical. In the meantime, peace–yearning Palestinians and Israelis can socialise productively, like pluralistic Malaysians do, to smother tensions and reinforce kinship.
