Good morning to everyone who isn't creepily re-re-re-litigating the 2024 election w/ Benghazi-like obsession.

Roman Centurian's Panik Party #oil over #collage #mixedmedia triptych, 42"x23"

This is a triptych (3-panel) mixed media (oil over collage) painting called "Roman Centurian's Panic Party." A Facebook poster once described a world filled with fear-huddled masses, bunkered down in their castle-homes, awaiting a tyrannical government to take away their firearms. The author’s name is hidden in the title: and dedicated to him.

And, you want to talk "history?" That route doesn't go so well for you genocide deniers, either.

And that’s what mainstream opinion is: Israel should have what’s called the abstract “right to exist.” No state has a right to exist, and no one demands such a right. For example, the United States has no such right. Mexico doesn’t respect the right of the United States to exist, sitting on half of Mexico, which was conquered in war. They do grant the U.S. rights in the international system, but not the legitimacy of those rights.

This concept “right to exist” was in fact invented, as far as I can tell, in the 1970s when there was general international agreement, including the Arab states and the PLO, that Israel should have the rights of every state in the international system. And therefore, in an effort to prevent negotiations and a diplomatic settlement, the U.S. and Israel insisted on raising the barrier to something that nobody’s going to accept. Certainly, the Palestinians can’t accept it. They’re not going to accept Israel’s existence but also the legitimacy of its existence and the legitimacy of their dispossession. Why should they accept that? Why should anyone accept it?

But that’s what’s called “neutrality” and being “unbiased.” It shows in all sorts of other ways. So what they mean by unbiased is approximately what they would have meant in the Kremlin. Yes, that’s very dangerous and the fact that that’s even contemplated is outrageous, and the attacks against the universities as well. These really reflect a totalitarian instinct, in my opinion, and of course they’re dressed up under the name academic freedom and so on, but anyone who’s read Orwell knows what that means.

Come up with a better snark, hasbara. That 'ha-ha-we-win' lane only makes you look more barbaric.

From the Hasbara Notebook, p. 47 (2023 updated vers) When presented w/ facts like "they killed the most journalists," deny their identity. Remember, genocide is about DENIAL of their EXISTENCE. Do it for Zionism. The eyes of Israel are upon you.

But, there's no genocide! Israel just declares they're gonna OCCUPY Gaza and ethnically cleanse Palestinians. But, Israel: they're the..."good guys." ...and other bullshit hasbara.
