Does even a cynic sense that — the Judeo-Christian-predicted apocalypse might be soon arriving?

"Ruling powers of evil"

 

The United States and Israel have set the scene for the arguably arriving equivalent of Judeo-Christian writings' apocalypse:

 

 

one of the Jewish and Christian writings of 200 b.c. to a.d. 150 marked by pseudonymity, symbolic imagery, and the expectation of an imminent cosmic cataclysm in which God destroys the ruling powers of evil and raises the righteous to life in a messianic kingdom

I am impressed with the moral depravity that both nations commit, as matters of established national policy.

 

Witness, for instance, the latest (and absolutely representative) event from quasi-genociding Israel:

 

 

A deadly Israeli attack that killed seven aid workers from the non-profit World Central Kitchen (WCK) in Gaza on Monday appears to have consisted of multiple precision strikes, a CNN analysis of aftermath videos and images found.

 

WCK said in a statement Tuesday that its team was traveling in a “deconflicted zone” in two armored cars and one unarmored vehicle, after dropping off more than 100 tons of food supplies at a warehouse in Deir al-Balah in central Gaza, when the attack occurred. The charity said it had coordinated the convoy’s movements with the Israeli military.

 

CNN geolocated video and imagery of all three destroyed vehicles, at least one of which was clearly marked with a WCK logo on its roof, to two positions on the strip’s Al Rashid coastal road, and a third location on an off-road area of open ground nearby. The first location is around 2.4 kilometers from the third, indicating that the three vehicles were hit by separate strikes.

 

The chief of staff of the Israeli military, Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, apologized for the strike and described it as “a mistake that followed a misidentification.”

 

Explosive weapons expert Chris Cobb-Smith told CNN on Tuesday that the strikes appeared to have been carried out by an Israeli drone.

 

Cobb-Smith . . . said the heavy damage to the three vehicles was consistent with the use of “highly accurate drone fired missiles,” adding it was “hard to believe” the tragic incident was an accident.

Since this kind of mass murder happens routinely at Israeli hands . . .

 

. . . believing these Zionist Israeli scumbags is off the table. Especially so, when one considers Israel's repetitively genocidal, anti-Palestinian statements.

 

The Israel-controlled United States is similarly extermination inclined. However, for hypocrisy's sweet sake, American officials keep lamenting Palestinians' deaths. While continuing to vigorously arm and fund the Zionists, who are doing the killing.

 

Secretary of State Antony Blinken is particularly in love with this lies-based, barf-inducing role of his. Watching that posturing pissant is like a trip into treacle hell.

 

 

Calling both these nations 'rogue' — is an exponential understatement

 

'Satanic' is more accurate.

 

Witness Israel's recent attack on an Iranian consulate in Syria:

 

 

Iran has vowed to retaliate after it accused Israel of bombing its embassy complex in Syria on Monday, in a deadly escalation of regional tensions over the war in Gaza that once again appeared to raise the risk of a wider Middle Eastern conflict.

 

The airstrike destroyed the consulate building in the capital Damascus, killing at least seven officials including Mohammed Reza Zahedi, a top commander in Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guards (IRGC), and senior commander Mohammad Hadi Haji Rahimi, according to Iran’s Foreign Ministry.

 

At least six Syrian citizens were also killed, Iranian state television reported on Tuesday.

The moral? — And thus . . .

 

We might have to credit some of our Judeo-Christian brothers and sisters for their sense that the religiously predicted apocalypse is soon to arrive.

 

Even as a non-evangelical realistic cynic, I have to agree that US leadership and Israel will go down in History as two of the morally worst, and most nauseatingly hypocritical, nations ever to have existed.

 

It feels (shiveringly) justly right that both might attenuate their malevolence-inspired wrongdoings in pillars of self-invited nuclear fire.
