Going Rogue With Caitlin Johnstone

If Gaza was populated by Jews and the people massacring its inhabitants were Muslims, nobody would have any trouble calling this thing what it is. The words "genocide" and "Holocaust" would've been appearing in the news every single day for the last 19 months. Reading by Tim Foley.

I will never forget the Gaza holocaust. I will never let anyone else forget about the Gaza holocaust. No matter what happens or how this thing turns out, I will never let anyone my voice touches forget that our rulers did the most evil things imaginable right in front of us and lied to us about it the entire time. Reading by Tim Foley.

That's right kids, Israel will literally assassinate a journalist by bombing a hospital, openly admit that they bombed the hospital to assassinate the journalist for engaging in journalistic activities - and then call you an antisemite if you say Israel bombs hospitals and assassinates journalists. Reading by Tim Foley.

When people hear the word "propaganda" they tend to think it means the same thing as "lies", but that's not accurate. The domestic propaganda that westerners are fed by the powerful does not typically consist of whole-cloth fabrications, but rather of distortions, half-truths, manipulated emphasis, and lies by omission. Reading by Tim Foley.

After a year and a half of genocidal atrocities, the editorial boards of numerous British press outlets have suddenly come out hard against Israel's genocidal onslaught in Gaza. Reading by Tim Foley.

It can make you feel like you’re going mad. How phony and superficial it all is. How we’re a year and a half into history’s first live-streamed genocide and our whole society is acting like everything’s peachy. Reading by Tim Foley.

After a few frightening missile and drone strike exchanges and some of the most large-scale aerial combat that our world has seen in recent history, India and Pakistan have reportedly agreed to a full and immediate ceasefire. Reading by Tim Foley.

Israeli snipers routinely, deliberately shoot children in the head throughout the Gaza Strip. Israel created an AI system for the IDF to target suspected Hamas fighters when they go home to their families and mockingly called it "Where's Daddy?", because they are killing the fighters' children. Israel has targeted healthcare facilities and ambulances in Gaza hundreds upon hundreds of times. They've been documented entering the hospitals they attack and systematically destroying individual pieces of medical equipment in order to make them unusable. IDF soldiers constantly post photos and videos to their social media accounts showing themselves mockingly dressing in the clothes of dead and displaced Palestinian women and playing with the toys of dead and displaced Palestinian children.

Nuclear states getting into tit-for-tat bombing exchanges with each other is a threat to everybody. Reading by Tim Foley.

We don't need horror movies. We're creating our own horrors in places like Gaza. We don't need dystopian fiction. We're living in dystopia right here in our own society. We don't need fantasy stories about scary monsters. The scary monsters run our government. Reading by Tim Foley.

Israeli soldiers have been harassing a Palestinian activist who appeared in Louis Theroux's recent documentary The Settlers to talk about Israel's apartheid abuses in the occupied West Bank. Issa Amro shared footage of IDF troops raiding his home over the weekend, days after Theroux's film debuted on the BBC. Israelis not only murder journalists, attack journalistic institutions and block journalists from entering the Gaza Strip, they also persecute Palestinian civilians who speak with journalists. Reading by Tim Foley.

There is absolutely no excuse for continuing to babble about hostages and Hamas after the US and Israel said the goal is the complete ethnic cleansing of Gaza. They told you what this is really about. They said it. With their face holes. They said it right to you. End of debate. Reading by Tim Foley.

Anti-Zionism is anti-semitism. Cats are ducks. The Declaration of Independence is spaghetti sauce. The Bronze Age is a foot fetish. There are no differences between any two things. All things are exactly the same as all other things. Reading by Tim Foley.

Amnesty International is now calling Israel’s mass atrocity in Gaza “a live-streamed genocide” due to the way this nightmare is unfolding right in front of us on the screens of our devices around the world, and public support for Israel is plummeting in the United States. Zionists are losing control of the narrative, and they know it. And they are not taking it well. Reading by Tim Foley.

So everyone who said the Biden administration was working for a ceasefire lied. They lied that whole entire time. They committed genocide and lied about it, and then they said you were crazy and irresponsible if you didn’t support them. People’s rage should shake heaven and earth. Reading by Tim Foley.

Israel is a bad country full of bad people. They are not bad because of their religion, they are bad because they live in a genocidal apartheid state whose existence depends on indoctrinating its people into seeing genocide and apartheid as good. It's the system. It's always about the system. Reading by Tim Foley.

We really need a name for the mental illness that comes with obscene amounts of wealth. Elon Musk's bizarre progeny obsession. All the weird shit Michael Jackson did. The stories you hear about rich families making their servants clean their toilets after every use or throw away plates after every meal. Reading by Tim Foley.

Trump is committing genocide for Israel after publicly admitting to being bought and owned by the Adelsons. All the worst shit happens right out in the open. You don't need to come up with any elaborate conspiracy theories to see it. It's right there, completely unhidden. Reading by Tim Foley.

Nobody say "Fuck Israel, Free Palestine." Saying "Fuck Israel, Free Palestine" is very offensive to people who think genocide is good. When you say "Fuck Israel, Free Palestine," you are hurting the feelings of the people who believe it's fine to bomb every hospital in Gaza. So you must never, ever say "Fuck Israel, Free Palestine." Reading by Tim Foley.

The Irish-language hip hop trio Kneecap is being investigated by British counterterrorism police following a controversial appearance where the group performed in front of the words "FUCK ISRAEL, FREE PALESTINE" during a music festival in the United States. Reading by Tim Foley.
