The Trouble with the West and the Palestinians

from The Village Oak Tree

I am bringing more agitation towards the western world over their treatment of the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank again. I bash the United States in particular but I also bash the U.K. and the EU for sucking up to the U.S. and enabling Israel to continue with their ethnic cleansing.I decided to talk about this after the events in the news last week over all the furor when the IDF killed those food aid workers. It took the deliberate targeting and murder of these seven people for Biden and company to finally put their foot down to Israel.As I say in the podcast, too little, too late.Why did it take the deaths of six white people and one interpreter for the west to tell Israel to back off and let the aid trucks in? And even then, only a few. They withdrew some soldiers from south Gaza, leaving two brigades in place. Big whoop.All the while, making big threats about gearing up to invade Rafah at some undisclosed date as of yet. In today’s news, someone said that they are bluffing. What do you think?In other news, I have a treat this week. I talked my favorite Brit, Martin Morrison, into reading his own story for me and I added it to the end of my monologue, with pictures of Palestine. Not the touristy ones.I also added in a revised advertisement at about the fifteen minute mark. Fair warning. And you thought this was all for free. Gotcha’
