Someday the Empire will Fall

This past week, the UN General Assembly voted 187 to 2 for a resolution ending the US blockade of Cuba. The holdouts were the two pariah nations of the world: Israel and the US.

The same two countries that support each other in committing the terrible war crimes in Gaza: 10,000 killed by indiscriminate bombing, half of them children.

Huge demonstrations against this bloodthirsty alliance have spread all over the globe, with millions in the streets. We are gathered here today to stop the bloodshed…to stop the carnage…to stop the genocide.

Israel and the US have never had a reputation for justice or human rights. Both countries are highly armed and racist in many their policies.

Israel has been ethnically cleansing Palestinians for 75 years. Jews are welcome to this land of milk and honey. But Palestinians are starved, beaten, and driven out. Millions of them are on the road without food or water, desperately seeking cover from Israeli missiles.

The US has invaded country after country in the Third World, killing people of color in the millions, be they Asians, Africans or indigenous people in Latin America…And its Jim Crow treatment of our Black brothers and sisters has been little better.

Israel is the most brutal apartheid state in the civilized world. And the criminal, racist state of America is its natural ally, supporting this genocide every step of the way.

Both major parties in the US are bought and paid for by the Israel Lobby, so there is little chance of change.

Pat Ryan is on the gravy train himself…willing to defend Israel’s slaughter of the innocents…Willing to sell his soul to the Israel lobby…Willing to give his stamp of approval to the murder of 5 thousand children in Gaza.

But millions in the streets are demanding something more. We demand that United States stop paying for the massive bombing and starvation directed at the Palestinian people.

Some day there will be Nuremberg trails for Israeli and US leaders who so obviously have blood on their hands.

They will try to defend themselves by pointing at the war crimes committed by the other. Israel has already pointed out the US nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, as justification for its crimes in Gaza.

Some day, if we work hard enough, the US military empire will fall, taking the other pariah state of Israel with it…And the people of the world will dance in the streets.
