Gaza pummelled as Sarkozy prepares for peace mission (+ video SKYNEWS)

Hear, hear, hear,

We the people of Europe, are being taken for a ride by our governments, who are plebisciting Israel in its war crimes, and crimes against humanity, crimes against humanity, because we, unlike our governments and their Protégés in Tell Aviv, consider Palestinians as human beings, and we are enraged by the guilty silence of our representatives.

Last summer saw the Western media and politician’s outrage orchestrated against, the so called Russian attack on Georgia, calling for all democrats in Europe to rise against Russia, only to embarrass themselves after the findings of their own as well as International observers, who confirmed that Georgia was responsible for starting the war, and perpetrating war crimes.

The same process of misinformation took place to put pressure on China just before the Peking Olympics, blaming China for repressing the so called uprising of the Tibetan people, only to find out later that Tibetan Monks started the violence against Chinese businesses, another embarrassment, for our democrats.

Today, the quasi totality of our governments, and their allies in the corporate media, are accomplices to the massacres of hundreds of Palestinians, and the total destruction of what is left of that shanty town called Gaza.
Gaza has been under siege for the last 2 years with the blessing of our governments. They have frozen all financial aid to the Palestinian territories for the past 3 years, a collective punishment of the Palestinian people for having democratically elected the Hamas to represent them, instead of the Fattah that collaborates with the occupiers.

The corporate media, with the blessing of our rulers, misinform, and dis-inform, confusing the European citizens, leading them to believe that the Palestinians deserve what they are getting, and that Israel’s action is a legitimate retaliation to the Hamas rockets.
Putting at the same level in this way, air and now ground attacks on thousands civilians, and the home made Hamas rocket, which killed 4 Israelis.

The cowered attitude of our leaders is well known now, apart from the timid and non publicised condemnation of the Spanish government, the tenors of the EU, are all in approval with the Israeli extermination in Gaza, Merkel, and Sarkosy have never hidden their unconditional support for the terrorist state of Israel, Brown let his foreign minister, who is a notorious Zionist and staunch supporter of Israel, to deal with the matter, and the rest of the other countries, including the new arrivals, such as the Czechs_ who just took over the EU presidency_ are only eager to follow suite, I let you discover yourselves what their president has said a couple of days ago about these massacres; (http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/129118)

It seems that the double standards are still the norm in the EU, and that our hypocritical attitude will only make the stability of the planet more and more an illusion, making us, the European citizens, the accomplices of genocide in the eyes of future generations when they’ll look back on our time.

So the hypocritical, and ineffective gesticulations to appease Israel by Mr Sarkozy, are just part of his usual media tricks, to which every observer is now accustomed. Not earlier than last October he promised us punishment for the people responsible for the international crisis, he also called on the abolition of tax havens that are responsible for money laundering by the big and powerful. But we all know what came out of those promises.
