Whereas Russia targets Only Military Facilities in Ukraine, Israel targets Genocide in Gaza

Throughout the Ukrainian war, ever since its start in 2014, and up till the present time, Russia has targeted only military facilities, but throughout the Gazan war, Israel has instead aimed to eliminate the Gazan people by starving them, prohibiting essential medical supplies to them, and, now, by bombing them in order to slaughter them and to destroy their hospitals, schools, and other essential civilian facilities, so that this will be a genocide to eliminate the population there.

On December 29th, the AP headlined “Russia fires 122 missiles and 36 drones in what Ukraine calls the biggest aerial barrage of the war” and reported that “Russia launched 122 missiles and dozens of drones against Ukrainian targets, officials said Friday, killing at least 24 civilians across the country in what an air force official said was the biggest aerial barrage of the war.” The targets that were identified by this US propaganda outlet were all military. Obviously, if Russia had targeted any hospital, school, or et cetera, then the AP would have featured it prominently, but instead there were no such examples, among the “122 missiles and 36 drones” and the AP conspicuously failed to call attention to that remarkable fact. That propaganda report did say “A maternity hospital, apartment blocks and schools were among the buildings reported damaged across Ukraine,” but “damaged” doesn’t mean “targeted”, and in every war there unavoidably will be other objects that will be “damaged” and even some civilians who will be injured and killed, as “collateral damage.” Hitler is universallly hated because he targeted civilians to become slaughtered, genocide, in addition to military targets. Horst von Maltitz perceptively observed in this regard in his 1973 The Evolution of Hitler’s Germany, page 171, that “railroad transport trains carrying Jews from the West to extermination camps in Poland were given priority over trains for urgently needed troops and war supplies. Moreover, skilled Jewish laborers, desperately needed in the munitions plants in occupied Poland, were carted off to extermination centers, in spite of strong objections by plant managers.” And according to the Polish Ambassador, Jan Ciechanowski, in his 1947 Defeat in Victory, page 179, he had personally handed US President Roosevelt in The White House on 28 July 1943 a memo that, “The unprecedented destruction of the entire Jewish population is not motivated by Germany’s military requirements. Hitler and his subordinates aim at the total destruction of the Jews before the war ends and regardless of its outcome.” By contrast, the AP’s propaganda article reported that, “In Boyarka, near the capital, Kyiv, the debris of a shot down drone fell on a home and started a fire. Andrii Korobka, 47, said his mother was sleeping next to the room where the wreckage landed and was taken to hospital suffering from shock.” That wasn’t civilians being targeted, it was definitely collateral damage to civilians. It continued “In Odesa, on the southern coast, falling drone wreckage started a fire at a multistory residential building, according to the regional head, Oleh Kiper. Two people were killed and 15, including two children, were injured, he said.” Would the propagandists have even reported that allegation if the targeting of schools, hospitals, food distribution centers and refugee camps had occurred such as is happening in Gaza?

On 21 October 1941, Hitler, in the privacy of his bunker, concluded a long tirade against Jews, as transcribed in his Table Talk, by saying “By exterminating this pest, we shall do humanity a service of which our soldiers can have no idea.” Hitler’s buddy, Himmler, stated, in a speech to top SS leaders, two years later, when the Holocaust was in full swing, on 4 October 1943, that this extermination was necessary for them to carry out, in order to have “exterminated a bacterium because we do not want in the end to be infected by the bacterium and die of it.” Hitler had stated, on various occasions, that the “Jewish infection” or “Jewish bacterium” or “blood poisoning by Jews,” was transmitted to non Jews in their “blood,” and so Jews must be entirely eradicated like plague carrying rats, not only in Germany, but beyond. Hitler said, on 24 February 1943 “This fight will not end with the planned annihilation of the Aryan [which to him meant the descendants of Adam and Eve in Genesis 3] but with the extermination of the Jew [which to him meant the descendants of the snake in Genesis 3] in Europe. Beyond this, thanks to this fight, our movement’s world of thought will become the common heritage of all people.”

Furthermore, that 24 February 1943 quotation ISN’T from the flawed Trevor-Roper publication of the Table Talk but instead from an authentic speech that Hitler gave on that date, and the varying translations of which were discussed in an 8 March 1943 OSS Memorandum http://www7.bbk.ac.uk/thepursuitofthenazimind/FDR/DSCN2002.jpg by Walter Langer to William Donovan. The 1941 quotation from Hitler isn’t only in the original German version of the Table Talk but was quoted in a book by Winston Churchill in 1948, four years before any translated version of the Table Talks (Tisch Gesprache) and this includes the one issued by Trevor Roper, was published. The Himmler quotation is likewise accepted as authentic by historians.

No reasonable and honestly informed person will doubt that for Hitler, the extermination-program existed and constituted an end in itself; and  based upon the circumstantial evidence that von Maltitz cites, constituted for Hitler the most important end-in-itself.

That is what Israeli troops, and their American weapons and intelligence support, now is doing to the Gazans.

Russia’s Debate about Whether to Destroy The World

A nuclear war between NATO and Russia would be virtually certain to destroy the world (half of humans starving to death within two years, but ever since the Russian national-defense theoretician Sergei Karaganov proposed on 13 June 2023 that his nation adopt a policy which would allow a pre emptive first strike nuclear-weapons policy in order to defend against NATO, the possibility of adopting that policy has been taken seriously in Russia, and I shall argue here why I believe that it should not be, and present what I think would be a much better alternative to it.

Professor Karaganov’s article headlined at Russia’s RT News, “By using its nuclear weapons, Russia could save humanity from a global catastrophe”, and then on 27 June 2023, at RT, he clarified his position by headlining there, “Here’s why Russia has to consider launching a nuclear strike on Western Europe” and saying “Virtually all experts agree that under no circumstances would the Americans respond to a nuclear attack on their allies with a nuclear attack on our territory. Incidentally, even Biden has said so openly.” He failed to link to his source on that allegation “Biden has said so openly,” nor did he otherwise provide evidence that the allegation is true; but at least Karaganov displayed there his unfounded assumption that “under no circumstances would the Americans respond to a nuclear attack on their allies with a nuclear attack on our territory.” His assumption is unfounded not only because even if Biden has said that it is so, Biden routinely lies and so his allegations cannot be trusted, but also is unfounded for the following reason.

The core of the NATO treaty and the reason why European nations join it, is its famous Article 5, which is widely promoted as-if it guarantees that in the event of any NATO member nation being invaded by Russia, America will join that war on the side of the invaded NATO member nation. That joining of the war wouldn’t necessarily entail a nuclear response, but if a non nuclear response is done and seems not to have produced victory, then either the US would have lost WWIII in a traditional, id est, non nuclear, war, or else the US would then escalate the conflict to being a nuclear one, in an attempt to ‘win’ that WWIII, as if there would be any “winner” in a nuclear war between America and Russia, which would destroy the entire planet. America’s losing a non nuclear conflict with Russia would effectively terminate the NATO alliance and end America’s dominance over the world or even end America’s influence in the world, and, so, anyone, such as Dr. Karaganov, who is assuming that America wouldn’t escalate that conflict to a nuclear one if America is losing the traditional one, is ignoring that the US Government ever since 25 July 1945 has been effectively controlled by neo cons, people who are obsessed for the US Government ultimately to control the entire world. I would easily take that bet against Karagonov’s assumption, except that since its outcome would be destruction of the entire world, nobody could win such a bet, just as no side could win a war between America and Russia. And that, I believe, is the reason why Karaganov’s recommendation should not be taken seriously.

For this reason, I headlined at RT on 14 July 2023, “Amid talk of a preemptive nuclear strike on NATO from Russia, why doesn’t Moscow try this instead? The country should engage NATO members with proposals for bilateral agreements, which will also help them to regain sovereignty”. Referring to Karaganov’s proposal, I said: “I believe that if Russia so much as even considers this [Karaganov’s] course it would be a catastrophic mistake without first having offered to each and every European country, other than, of course, Russia itself,  certain type of bilateral mutual non-aggression treaty which would also require that they withdraw from America’s anti Russia military alliance, NATO. Even if only one member of the bloc broke away, that could spark the end of the organization.”

If what Governments seek by joining NATO is a reduced likelihood of becoming invaded by Russia or targeted in a war between the US and Russia, then this would be the way to achieve that objective. Joining NATO, as they have done or might intend to do, is volunteering to have one’s major cities become targeted by Russia’s nuclear missiles. It increases, instead of decreases, that nation’s insecurity. It increases the likelihood of that nation’s becoming destroyed in a Third World War. By contrast, signing the deal that my article proposed with Russia, would not only decrease insecurity, it would ALSO provide massive economic benefits to the given European country. It would be win win, instead of NATO’s win lose or, if WWIII, lose lose.

Perhaps the biggest single failure by Vladimir Putin, who has otherwise been a superb leader of the Russian nation, is that he has never offered such a win win deal to any European nation’s Government, and he has never publicized to any European nation’s public that he is offering it to that nation’s leadership. My article set forth my recommendation regarding how that offer ought to be made, first privately, and then publicly if the given nation’s leadership has turned the offer down privately.

Russia is now the pivotal nation in world affairs, and making this offer to each of NATO’s current and prospective possible future European member-nations is essential in order to end the Cold War, NATO’s expansion, for real. It would do that, in an entirely peaceful way.

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s new book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to US and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’, duping the public.
