Sept. 2, 2025: US strike against an
alleged drug boat in the Caribbean—
After years of innocent Arabs and Muslims bombed by Obama-sanctioned drones in the Middle East, the media suddenly questions U.S. military strikes with great scrutiny, proving the racism and hypocrisy of the reporting on Arabs and Muslims; ignoring decades of Middle East warcrimes and proving that Arab lives do not matter because they are all "terrorists" according to this new "liberal" narrative sanctioning the murder of Muslims and Arabs:
|
| Racism of Democrat Representative Jim Himes of Connecticut unchallenged on NPR: "When the U.S. takes lethal strikes, usually you're talking about somebody who is clearly an avowed enemy of the United States, usually a terrorist, or in the case I cited, an Iranian military commander.... So you start with the context, which is that killing unindicted criminals - because these people [those who are not Arabs or Muslim] are criminals, not terrorists. Terrorism - terrorist has a distinct meaning. Killing them [those who are not Arabs or Muslim] without due process, without an arrest, that context is problematic....And the United States took the decision to kill them, which, as you point out, in the Pentagon manual is the very definition of a war crime.... But, you know, these are criminals. They are not terrorists. Terrorists have a political and a strategic objective." |

| HAARETZ Trump's Mideast Envoy Forced Netanyahu to Accept a Gaza Plan January 13, 2025; Chaim Levinson Last Friday evening, Steven Witkoff, U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's Middle East envoy, called from Qatar to tell Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's aides that he would be coming to Israel the following afternoon. The aides politely explained that was in the middle of the Sabbath but that the prime minister would gladly meet him Saturday night. Witkoff's blunt reaction took them by surprise. He explained to them in salty English that Shabbat was of no interest to him. His message was loud and clear. Thus in an unusual departure from official practice, the prime minister showed up at his office for an official meeting with Witkoff, who then returned to Qatar to seal the deal. A week before Trump's inauguration, Jerusalem already sees a change in the rules of the game that has broken the deadlock in the hostage negotiations. Unusually, the outgoing Biden administration has let Witkoff lead the process, on the grounds that any obligations the United States undertakes will be incumbent on Trump, not on Biden. |

NEW YORK TIMES In Shift in Relationship With Netanyahu, Trump Says ‘I Will Decide’ What Is Right for Israel Since an Israel-Hamas cease-fire deal came into effect, the U.S. effort to sustain it appears to have constrained Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. By David M. Halbfinger, Reporting from Jerusalem Oct. 27, 2025 "...After Israel’s botched airstrike on Hamas negotiators in Qatar last month, Mr. Trump, meeting with Mr. Netanyahu in the Oval Office, [Trump] forced [Netanyahu] to call the Qatari prime minister and apologize.... Mr. Trump went on to push Mr. Netanyahu into agreeing to his Gaza peace plan — including an acknowledgment of Palestinian aspirations to statehood, which the Israeli leader adamantly opposes. A day later, Mr. Trump told Axios: “He’s got to be fine with it. He has no choice. With me, you got to be fine.”... The president hasn’t just asserted his dominance over Mr. Netanyahu in relation to Gaza. .... Mr. Trump has also rejected, in increasingly emphatic terms, the idea that Israel would annex parts of the occupied West Bank. This is a longstanding goal of Mr. Netanyahu’s right-wing coalition partners and one that has gained support since a host of countries recognized Palestinian statehood last month. “It will not happen,” Mr. Trump said in the Time interview.....The U.S. effort to sustain the truce in Gaza appears to have constrained Mr. Netanyahu as well. ... The United States has even begun operating drones over Gaza, suggesting that officials want to have their own understanding, independent of Israel’s, of what is happening. |
| In 2022, the Republican party ran Muslim physician and politician Dr. Mehmet Oz in the Pennsylvania Senator race — for Dr. Oz to potentially be the first Muslim Senator in United States history. In order to counter this historic moment, the Democrats put all their resources into the White, Islamophobic candidate John Fetterman, and defeated this historic moment. |

| We say no to U.S. Empire; as Martin Luther King said, "my country is the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today." We pay an incredible price for that all over the world, and people are murdered by [the] millions all across the world by the U.S. empire and its many wars. In fact, according to the Brown University, "Cost of War Project," the U.S. currently has so-called anti-terror, special operations, in 85 countries around the world. This costs us half of our budget, half of our tax resources, are used for this "Endless War Machine" that makes the world a more dangerous place; and which destroys our health care, our housing, our need for jobs and education here at home. The last thing I want to leave you with Alice Walker said, "that the biggest way people give up power is not knowing we have it to start with." Remember; 68% of the American public, according to a Reuters poll, oppose this Genocide and want an immediate ceasefire and diplomatic solution; that is 68%; Add that, to the 44 million young people in unpayable student debt who are locked into debt servitude for their lives because of the lousy economy, and the lousy jobs provided by the economy of empire. 63% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck; half of all people who [pay] rent [for] their housing cannot afford it; and are one paycheck away from being evicted from their homes; we have the highest rates of eviction [and addiction] and homelessness, ever, in this country. You put us together, we are an unstoppable coalition. Together, we are Joe Biden's red line. We will stop genocide, and empire, and oligarchy, and fascism, together. Free Palestine ! |

WAR PROFITEERING: After Senator Joe Biden became one of the loudest voices for supporting the 2003 Iraq war, Vice President Joe Biden was tasked by President Barack Obama to oversee Iraq government contracts. The White House handed the firm HillStone International LLC a lucrative contract to rebuild homes in war-torn Iraq, which would have awarded James Biden (Joe's brother) almost a billion dollars. |
