The Sadistic Torture of the Innocent – When Enough is Enough.

 

The latest report of a Palestinian baby tortured with cigarette burns and nails to his feet by an Israeli IDF solider confirms my long-held view that the State of Israel have crossed all moral and ethical lines. These people brag about rape and torture and continue to engage in perverted and cruel acts posting their atrocities online for the world to see. Their smugness and deluded pride for committing these acts of pure evil only adds to their vileness. Evidently, it is said, that there is no consequence for these acts because these morons believe they are “God’s Chosen People”, and anything they do is God’s Will. These people are not God’s people but agents of the deity Baal and the fallen Satan. From a spiritual perspective, there is no other explanation. From a political point of view, this is nothing other than pure fascism. 

Israel is a 70-year-old construct created by Satan worshiping ethno-supremacists, an elite group of wealthy, sexually perverted freaks who are in love with war and chaos. Over these 70 years, they have managed to brainwash 2 generations into believing the only good Palestinian is a dead one. These evil idiots even have a policy called “mowing the grass” where bombing Gaza consistently over time is necessary to keep the population at a manageable level. Since October 7, 2023, Israel has committed a genocide on the Palestinian people while our so-called western Christian world has supported it. Currently they have waged war on Iran, Lebanon, and the world hasn’t begun the feel the repercussions economically or otherwise. 

To be sure, I’m disgusted with the Australian government who are in bed with the Zionists. Our PM is a simple and spinless little man who follows orders from Tel Aviv and Washington DC. The man has as much knowledge of geopolitics as a 9th grade history student. 

To justify the mass murder of a people and the illegal settlement of said people’s land based on an interpretation on the Old Testament of the Bible, is absurd. We had what is called ‘The Enlightenment’ in the 18th century where Reason and rationality replaced religious superstition and religious oppression. The founding fathers of the US emphasized the necessity of the separation of Church and State for the fledging Republic to survive. Viewing the current US administration, Thomas Jefferson would be turning in his grave. It seems our leaders have cast their minds back to medieval times starting ‘holy wars’ on behalf of God. I can’t state emphatically enough how stupid invoking religion to justify the mass murder of innocents. It’s wrong, a ploy, and it is evil.

We have observed Israel commit genocide, bombing hospitals, schools, destroying defenseless tent cities, shooting into Palestinian crowds attempting to attain food, imprisoning doctors and children; assassinating more journalists on a grand scale than has been seen in our lifetimes; intentional murder of children with gunshots to their heads, and now the latest is an IDF solider torturing a 18 month year baby with cigarette burns and nails. Yet, the western Zionists continue to commit these atrocities without consequence. Our western so-called democratic leaders either ignore these war crimes or respond with cliched platitudes. This is not to mention the pro genocide idiots on the internet denying the genocide and calling Israel’s atrocities as “fake news”.  

When the US and Israel started this war with Iran, the first cab off the rank was the bombing of an Iranian girl’s school murdering over 160 children under the age of 13. This is pathetic. I wrote about this war crime a day after it happened when the US denied the murders, for it to be consequently confirmed by the world. Again, no consequences, and only those with a sense of basic morality made their disapprovals known on social media. 

What is disturbing for many is our leadership are ignoring these war crimes and seemingly giving their stamp of approval. Our legacy media are fueling constant lies about this war and ignoring the actual crimes against humanity. 

This is not a war of defense; it is a war of aggression and territorial expansion. For Iran, however, this war is about defense and basic survival.

And again, criticizing Israel and the Zionist political ideology is not antisemitic, this has nothing to with Judaic religious tradition. 

When they begin torturing infants for military and/or sadistic purposes, it’s time for all humanity to stand up and say enough. 

I’m afraid that is all we can do. 

Thoughts on Legacy Media and War. (Opinion)

 

If you have studied war to any extent, propaganda from all sides to a conflict is relentless. The common citizen, no matter what “side” they’re on, is left with the task of discerning the veracity of the information they receive. One can be certain that what is currently called “legacy” media broadcast false information, biased points of view or those sticky half-truths where the tools of critical thinking must come into play. The problem is your everyday working stiff doesn’t have the time or energy to seek out alternative and independent media to sort out the truth from the lies. Instead, they rely on mainstream ‘talking heads’ on the six o'clock news for their information. This is unfortunate because these outlets are state propaganda machines, stenographers for the establishment, and can never be trusted. It has only been a week since the US/Israel attacked Iran and Iran’s justified response, and the lies are non-stop.  

The biggest lie came out right from the start: Iran attacked Israel and Israel had no choice but to defend itself. The mainstream outlets stated this falsehood within the first few hours. However, as time passed, this lie could not be substantiated and the truth prevailed. This wasn’t a mistake. This was a brazen attempt to control the narrative and posit Iran as the invading force.  

Since this war began, it has been difficult to keep up with the barrage of information thrown at the public. On can be assured that we will only see one side of the war, that is the US taking one win after another, revealing the enemy is losing. Minimum loss on our side and maximum deaths on the other. Currently we now have somewhat “free” internet. From certain platforms we can see that death and destruction is happening on both sides, particularly in Israel, where the devastation is substantial.  

One of the first war crimes committed within a day of the conflict was the intentional bombing of an Iranian elementary girl’s school, killing over 150 children. This was not reported by any mainstream outlet and only became known because of independent sources on the ground. Of course, government sources denied the atrocity but was later confirmed to be a fact. My point is we would never have heard of this war crime if we only relied on legacy media.  

All governments lie. There is no legitimate reason why this US/Israel vs. Iran war started in the first place. It is astounding to witness our current leaders in the west twisting themselves into knots to explain this major conflict. Today in fact, certain US lawmakers, it’s reported, attended a classified briefing on the war. They went into the meeting with questions and left the meeting with many more. One of the more troubling points these politicians made is that there is no end game. There is no stated goal for the war. It seems these demented neocons are just blowing shit up, killing innocent people and waiting to see what happens! So, if our leaders don’t have a clue, our mainstream media will just start making stuff up to continue to manufacture consent for the war.  

These people are laughably incompetent.  

Bukowski – Tales of Ordinary Madness – Comment

 One commentator describes Bukowski as the “godfather of low-life literature”. The man’s writing certainly delves into the realities of alcoholism, skid row antics, the act of writing, and unpleasant sexual exploits that at times are difficult to read. One wonders where the man has time to write at all considering the amount of alcohol he consumed daily. In many stories he awakes hung over and sick, sleeping in the afternoon, rising with his signature disgust with humankind.  

The man’s output as a writer is quite extraordinary. Thousands of poems, short stories, and several novels published. This doesn’t include the work that never arrived at the printer. In a few of his books, he describes his process of grabbing a bottle of wine, and sitting alone with his typewriter, listening to Mahler and Beethoven on the radio, banging away into the early morning.  

Tales of Ordinary Madness is a collection of short stories that combines the experiences of a drunken gambler, a sex fiend, and musings on Kant, great classical music from the 18th century, and critiques on contemporary writers like Hemingway, Norman Mailer and Ginsberg. He’s the bum in some ally in LA, with vomit on his torn coat, a bottle in his hand, thinking deeply about society, and life’s true meaning.  

There are a few stories in the collection that this reader found exceptionally intense.  

One of the more original and moving stories must be Animal Crackers in my Soup. The protagonist is coming off a bender and walking aimlessly through an unknown town. He’s at the point of collapse, dying of thirst, and randomly knocks on the door of a house. A woman answers and invites him in, giving him water and later a few meals and a bed to sleep in. The man discovers that the woman owns several wild animals: a tiger, monkeys, a baboon, birds and a variety of snakes. All the animals are housebroken, docile and love the woman. He calls the place a “liberated zoo.” The man develops a relationship with the animal/woman and ends up moving in. There’s something mystical about this growing relationship. The woman becomes pregnant, and later, a violent crime occurs in the home. The ending of the tale is the ultimate tragedy. As a reader of Bukowski, this story was unexpected.  

As a reader of this author, he never disappoints because of his skill for realism and absolute honesty. There is no writer today who is quite like him. A master of the down and dirty with flashes of the sublime.
