International Said Arikat to Matt Miller "At some point the US will have to call it what it is, ethnic cleansing. I know you don't approve of the word genocide, but a lot of people think it's genocide"

Matt Miller certainly knows that what is happening in Gaza is ethnic cleansing on top of a genocide. He is just there to shield Israel from any criticisim. It is all PR while the killing continues.

Because he's a ghoul. People have even been calling him "Count Chocula". Yes, I know vampire vs ghoul, but still.

Yes he’s a literal propagandist. His job is to lie and recite ambiguous and obscure horseshit on behalf of the US government. Public Relations is a euphemism for propaganda just as Human Resources is a euphemism for corporate propaganda.

The whole 70 years of conflict can be summed up as:

"you're in your house sleeping. At 3am there's a knock on the door. It's some guy from Brooklyn telling you to get the f_ck out. He cites a land claim...from 2,000-3,000 years ago (for reference- humans had just invented the wheel and the last Woolly Mammoths had just died out). If you refuse, you're done, and if you accept his offer, you're homeless in a desert."

Also you have to understand that Israel is an extension of the British Empire’s imperialist colonialism. The British Empire declared its support for international Zionism in Balfour Declaration on November 2, 1917. The British Empire took control the Mandatory of Palestine from the Ottoman Empire in 1922. Under this blanket protection of the British Empire, international Zionists were able to start colonizing Palestine.

Understandably the indigenous Arabs, after seeing the British Empire’s support for Zionism, revolted from 1936-1939. The British quelled the uprising and put a limitation on Jewish immigration and land seizure in Palestine, with the White Paper of 1939. The Zionists immediately rejected the White Paper and launched an insurgency against the British using terrorist tactics. This was the beginning of hostile Zionist take over of Palestine. When the British turned over the Mandate of Palestine to the UN in 1948 and the UN adopted the Partition Plan, there was no one left to stop the Zionist violent colonization. Thus in 1948 began the Nakba and the ethnic cleansing and colonization of Palestine by Zionists that continues to this day.

It's crazy Britain declared Balfour 5 years before they even controlled Palestine. Did they already know they would be taking it over from the Ottomans?

Said Arikat again confronts Matt Miller. He quotes former Israeli defense Minister Yaalon who says there is ethnic cleansing and war crimes. He also talks about the World Central Kitchen workers who were killed.

u/PickleMortyCoDm 25d ago

So despite the fact that the ICC put out arrest warrants for Gallant and Netanyahu, despite the former defense minister claims it is ethnic cleansing, despite all the footage and evidence, despite the UN and other organizations raising concern about this... the US will downright refuse to see it or call it for how it is and threaten to sanction anyone else who gets in the way of that.

I cannot believe how far America has fallen from grace on the world stage

What’s even more insane to me than Biden being an openly fervent Zionist who has shown more support to Israel than perhaps any potus before him, is that trump was elected in part because Biden “was weak on supporting Israel“

u/AdventureBirdDog 23d ago

lol pretty funny that Israel threw him under the bus. All that loyalty to the Zionist regime to be spit on

u/modernDayKing 23d ago

No no. We are not the bad guys. “We are just waiting for Israel to complete their investigation. We just don’t want to comment and get ahead of the results. We can’t comment until we are told exactly what Israel finds in their investigative process.”

Puke.

Always has been. It’s just mask off now

u/Sir-Spork 25d ago

I honestly don’t see how he can engage Matt Miller day after day and stay so cool. I watch less than a minute of him and I cannot take anymore

u/Suspicious_Mango9316 25d ago

Me too. I can’t even watch his responses anymore because it is so frustrating

This is the most charitable asking of a question I’ve ever seen in my life, but Matt Miller just fundamentally has to tow the line which Joe Biden has drawn, even though it is blatant insanity

u/MancombSeepgoodz 25d ago

The thing is he always has a smirk when he comes out to lie about the genocide, he likes his role of being evil.

u/modernDayKing 23d ago

I just want to know when any investigation into anything that’s happened since 10/7/2023 will be concluded.

Has any single one of them concluded ??

Which is to say this answer was insufficient and trash to boot, but it’s really getting to be insane.

u/AdventureBirdDog 23d ago

Israel is investigating every single incident since 10/7/23... But they will never investigate what actually happened on 10/7 and why they utterly failed at security and to protect their settlers. They won't investigate Hannibal, they won't investigate intelligence failures, IDF failure to respond urgently.

u/modernDayKing 23d ago

I read recently that they want to start that inquiry BUT in one fell swoop want to make ANY OTHER INDEPENDENT inquiry ILLEGAL.
