A-Infos (en) UK, AnarCom: We oppose Palestine inaction with class war against imperialist war! (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Gaslighting Gaza: Hunger, hypocrisy and history all over again... ---- 
If media promoted photographs are to be believed, crowds of desperate 
Palestinians surrounding aid convoys in the Gaza Strip have now joined 
the Great Wall of China as one of the few earthly human spectacles 
visible from space. ---- It is an instrument of torture to revive the 
victim, sustain their capacity to live sufficiently to draw out the 
terrible suffering inflicted on them, as a warning, revenge, or punishment.
This is the context in which the current rush to drop crumbs from the 
air into a starving caged mass and the temporary short-term pauses in 
their exposure to horrific violence in Gaza could be seen.  For 
survival, dignity or resolution, it is neither use nor ornament.

A 1000 people at least have been killed in the sadistic "hunger games" 
conducted by the Israeli state and US mercenaries over the last few 
months, to the increasing 'tut-tut' of an apparently disapproving world.

The fact that a pause has occurred at all is not a measure of the 
commitment and efforts of Israel's allies to reign it in, but of their 
complicity, having clearly always possessed such power but refused to 
apply it for the sake of their global imperialist goals.

The ruling socialites of the Labour Party have proved themselves again 
as one cheek of the capitalist arse as Shammy Lammy and Starmer 
Chameleon perform the full pragmatic masquerade to serve their master 
Trump.  They will never serve the interests of the working class they rob.

It might be better, observed President Lincoln, to avoid such treachery 
by choosing somewhere "...where despotism can be taken pure... without 
the base alloy of hypocrisy".  He was referring to Russia verses the US, 
we might well ask today, what's the difference?

The far-right administration of the Israel state continues to squander 
the last of its historic good will or guilt credits, still peddling the 
line that the hunger it has created doesn't exist.

This while juggling between military pauses and renewed bombing costing 
around 30 lives a day - double that currently caused by the induced 
famine.  That any in the West can seriously claim this as a success is 
again masking a cynical complicity.

Hamas, meanwhile, the 'state-aspiring' anvil on which the Palestinian 
working class is being hammered, unapologetically continues to feed the 
meat grinder at the other end.

The western governments continue to supply Israel, block refugees 
fleeing war zones and suppresses even the flimsiest internal descent 
against their Israeli ally as antisemitism.

The banning of Palestine Action as terrorists for their nonviolent 
direct action has fooled no one, not even the usually supine United 
Nations which has called for the ban to be lifted.

We don't support the ultimate goals of Palestine Action as we believe 
none of the artificially divided sections of the worlds working class 
should be subjected to the brutalising local policeman of capital that 
is the state, Palestinian or Israeli. We do however acknowledge this as 
a sign of greater repression to come and raise the alarm against it on 
that basis.

We have seen the seeding of periodic challenges to the power of Hamas 
brutally repressed by the Palestinian state-in -exile, while in Israel 
resistance is beginning to emerge to both genocide and forced military 
service.

While this initially appears small and far from the reality we are 
seeing elsewhere on the ground, we must counterpose it by asking what 
have those marching in their millions have achieved over the last three 
years other than sore feet and burnout.

Objectively they have bought time for the slaughter to continue by 
refusing to confront it with vigour and class interest with which this 
slaughter has been perpetrated.  So far, our focus on the horror abroad 
has served to divert our attention to how it is paid for - by our 
increasing exploitation at home through austerity.

We must continue to argue that capitalism's Social Peace at home is its 
violent immiserating pause enroute to the next generalised global 
bloodletting for profit, whose pathway is being paved almost everywhere 
we look at the moment.

The frontiers of capitalism are ablaze in preparation for our 
destruction; it's destruction through the global struggle of our Class 
War is our necessary response.
