US, Western and Israeli governments have an addiction to killing, destruction and chaos, usually where there is the most lucrative gains in the aftermath.
Here is a dictionary definition of holocaust: ‘Any mass slaughter or reckless destruction of life and ‘A great or complete devastation or destruction, especially by fire’. ‘A great destruction or loss of life or the source of such destruction’. HaShoah, means ‘catastrophe’ in Yiddish: And Churben or Hurban means ‘destruction’ in Hebrew. The word holocaust means ‘the deliberate and systematic extermination of a national, racial, political, or cultural group’, which is precisely what is happening in the Middle East by the Western Governments and Israel.
The US, Western and Israeli Governments may not have killed six million people yet as with the holocaust but they are catching up quickly. They are picking fights with anyone now, wherever they have something to gain, and like a big bully in a schoolyard, I believe their fingers are itching to try out the big nuclear bombs again as they couldn’t wait to in Hiroshima, with no apology to this day! Though this time they will be using Israel to set the bombs off for them, with $6 million dollars a day being given to Israel by the US government, as bribery to be a strategic position for the US and as a ‘hit man’ for them.
What difference is there in a suicide bomber blowing himself up in a bus shelter and killing 20 innocent people and classed as a terrorist, or the US or Israeli pilot who drops bombs from a cowardly 10,000 feet killing many times more innocent people. And ironically the suicide bomber is often taking revenge for the murder of his family and fellow citizens by the air strikes.
This is how war crimes have partially been defined in the dictionary; The ill-treatment or deportation of civilian residents of an occupied territory, the murder or ill-treatment of prisoners of war, the killing of prisoners, the wanton destruction of cities, towns and villages, and any devastation not justified by military, or civilian necessity. It is quite obvious that the people that make the laws break the laws they make, and are clearly not bound by those laws, but elevate themselves above them. What a shining example they are to the rest of the populace who have put their faith and trust in them. But people are waking up now to the truth. It’s now better late than never.
Figures vary but up to 1,000,000 (1 million) people were killed in Iraq. Many more have died indirectly, from the loss of clean drinking water, healthcare, and nutrition. An additional 365,000 have been wounded and 7.8 million people — equal to the combined population of Connecticut and Kentucky — have been displaced. (Huffington Post)
Estimates from other sources have doubled some of these figures. This doesn’t take into account the genocide from depleted uranium with generations of children wiped out from nuclear contamination. – Jason Liosatos.
