"If we make peaceful revolution impossible, we make violent revolution
inevitable." John Fitzgerald Kennedy
In my talks all over the world I explained that there is a 60% chance that
the world we know will be destroyed. The Genocide in Gaza woke up
hundreds of millions of people but it is not yet clear that this pressure
is enough to change the western subserviance to forces (deep state)
promoting colonialism, imperialism, and especially now Zionism that drive
the world to the abyss. To compound the problem the oppressive forces are
no longer led by rational megalomaniacs but by lunatics like Netanyahu,
Biden, and Trump. Those individuals and their smaller clones/disciples (JD
Vance, Kamala Harris, Ben Gvir, Smotrich) do not consider any logical
argument because they answer to strong motivation driven from other
interests. They have command of resources and are willing to sacrifice
people (and now the planet) at the altar of egos. While there existed
before them people like that (Hitler, Musolini, Milosovitch, Bush etc.),
the era we live in cannot afford this. There will not be human winners and
losers in the next global or even regional wars. The technology
advancements and easy availability of nuclear, drone, hypersonic, and
satellite weaponry ended that era. But wars also are climate change issues.
Israel produced more Green House gasses in its genocide in Gaza (from Jets
and bombs) than what France produced in a whole year of all its sources
(cars, industries, planes etc). And scientists recorded the highest global
temperatures ever. Will more people awaken and challenge the catastrophic
direction. The Gaza Strip provides the best torch of awakening. With
estimated 180,000 killed directly or indirectly (disease, famin), will that
be enough "motivation" to grow the pressure to finally end the forces of
(irrational) evil engulfing the planet? Or will cockroaches inherit the
earth? Millions of us increase our activism against all odds, for others
who are spectators, they can watch the destruction of human rights and the
rule of law and keep prayers that they can keep their lives going. But
"Whereas it is essential, if man is not to be compelled to have recourse,
as a last resort, to rebellion against tyranny and oppression, that human
rights should be protected by the rule of law,.." preamble of the universal
declaration of human rights

Yesterday five houses were demolished in the village of Al-Walaja by the
fascist colonizing Zionist regime (terraforming). A farmer there once told
me that he felt his land was heaven and after he dies he wants to be in his
village heaven.Here are some links of our earlier actions in Al-Walaja

Here are some images of Palestine that explains why we Palestinians will
never give up our homeland (we are willing to share it but will never give
it up even after genocide).

Israel's Most Illicit Affair: A book reveals that Israel’s secret
relationship with apartheid South Africa went far deeper than previously
understood. Now comes Sasha Polakow-Suransky, who is an editor at Foreign
Affairs magazine, a Rhodes scholar, and an American Jew whose parents
emigrated to the United States from South Africa. His singular achievement
in his new book, The Unspoken Alliance: Israel's Secret Relationship with
Apartheid South Africa scheduled for publication on May 25, is to have
unearthed more than 7,000 pages of heretofore secret documents from the
bowels of South Africa's Defense Ministry, Foreign Ministry, and Armscor,
the state defense contractor, including the secret 1975 military
cooperation agreement signed by defense ministers Shimon Peres and P.W.
Botha.
