Western civilization's demise — Zionism and Trump's allegedly clever political maneuvering

21 March 2025

A clever political game, huh?

Professor Gilbert Doctorow thinks that President Trump is playing a peace-intending game that requires him to placate Zionism.

The accommodation to genocidal Zionism being necessary, so as to maintain political support that will further the president's plans to make peace in Ukraine and strip American government of some of its waste and fraud.

This supposedly necessary political maneuvering takes the form of the United States energetically advancing the killing of innocent people in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen.

Well, maybe not

Trump is more probably doing what the West's consistently duplicitous moral weaklings always do. Meaning, engaging in blanket slaughter for the United States' traditional arms-profiteering and Israel-toadying sakes.

Of this parasitic imperial charade . . .

. . . Australia's Caitlin Johnstone wrote that — here in excerpts:

The Gaza holocaust has reignited with as much sadistic fury as it ever saw under the Biden administration.

More than five hundred people have reportedly been killed by Israeli bombardment since the onslaught resumed early Tuesday morning, including at least 200 children and 112 women.

[T]he people who rule over us are actively supporting this, while working to imprison, fire, silence and deport anyone who opposes it.

The waking nightmare we are witnessing in Gaza is the result of everything that we have become as a society. Those dead and mutilated children on your social media feed are the fruit on the tree of the western world.

This isn’t only about some strangers in the middle east. It’s also about you.

It’s about your freedom to speak out against the criminality of your rulers. It’s about the kind of society you want to live in. It’s about the kind of future you want for your children.

We are not separate from what’s happening in Gaza, as hard as we might try to make ourselves feel that way.

Gaza is here. The waves of blood are lapping at your doorstep. The dead and mutilated children are strewn about your living room and kitchen.

They were placed there by the powerful people who run your government and its allies.

And it’s up to you how you’re going to respond to it

The moral? — Ours is not a flawed modern civilization . . .

. . . but an organized mass murder machine.

Christianity and the Enlightenment's partially successful civilizing influences have been twisted into their virtually complete opposites.

If this is not raw evil at work, I would have trouble identifying what is.
