Germany accused of 'facilitating Gaza genocide' | Le Monde - 8 April 2024 |
As the supply of arms to Israel is the subject of fierce debate in many Western countries, Nicaragua is demanding that the International Court of Justice impose an embargo on Germany selling arms to Israel.
Genocide in the White House
Invite Netanyahu: Genocide in the White House
Despite charges of genocide in Gaza and an ICC arrest warrant; despite the IDF summary execution of Palestinian first responders on a rescue mission in Gaza; despite Netanyahu's multiple looming corruption charges; despite his scandalous legislative proposals to destroy Israeli democracy-Trump will clap him on the back as a fellow-fascist leader in a world teeming with them.
Leaders of the Democratic opposition won't raise a whisper against the visit. After all, many of their candidates rely on the largess of pro-Israel billionaires to fund their campaigns. Not even fierce critics like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and Bernie Sanders have raised their voices against this moral schandeh.

Hydrogen cyanide, a poisonous gas that interferes with cellular respiration, was first used as a pesticide in California in the 1880s. Farben's activities in the U.S. were of strategic, rather than tactical value to the Wehrmacht. Later in German research this was developed into Zyklon.
Major American companies with investments in Germany included General Motors, IT&T, Eastman Kodak, Standard Oil, Singer, International Harvester, Gillette, Coca-Cola, Kraft, Westinghouse, and United Fruit.
How surprising is it after defeat of the Axis Powers, fascism/colonialism in Churchill's Great Britain arose as did right-wing fascism as represented by McCarthy in the United States, gaining a permanent political foothold in the GOP. The OSS, later the CIA used fascists remnants across Europe to counteract Communism. The effects seen today. Fighting historical European wars of centuries past.
Roosevelt's Four Freedoms were the foundation of the E.E.C. and European Union. Too his ideals have been shattered in recent years, not by accident but pre-planned. United Nations, the UN Charter and the World Court (ICJ) est. June 1945. The ICC came about post Yugoslav wars in July 2002.

Israeli Army attacked medics in Red Crescent ambulances, summarily executed them and buried bodies and vehicles | EuroNews |
What we know about the killings of 15 Palestinian first responders by Israeli forces
Before the emergence of the footage over the weekend, an IDF source told Euronews that the vehicles that came under fire were carrying terrorists belonging to Hamas and the Islamic Jihad, making them "legitimate targets."
The IDF has said as many as nine terrorists were eliminated as part of the attack, and that six of the 15 Palestinian medics killed were Hamas operatives, but has not provided any evidence for that claim.
The bodies of the 15 workers -- eight from the PRCS, one from the Hamas-run Palestinian Civil Defence, and one UN employee -- were recovered by the UN from a grave in late March along with their vehicles.
A Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) medic remains missing.
Euronews' comparative analysis of the PRCS footage that claims to show the attack and the UN's footage from the burial site shows two idential concrete strucutres, suggesting the bodies were buried close to or at the scene of the attack.

Video released by the Palestine Red Crescent Society, taken with a phone by one of the 15 Palestinians medics killed, shows Red Crescent emergency vehicles, their lights and sirens flashing and their logos clearly visible, seconds before they came under a barrage of gunfire from Israeli soldiers in Rafah, in southern Gaza, on March 23.

'As soon as we arrived ... we came under fire': Red Crescent volunteer Munther Abed
A Palestinian paramedic who was present at an incident in which 15 of his colleagues were killed in southern Gaza last month said he witnessed Israeli troops firing at emergency vehicles that he later saw stained with blood.
After several days of uncertainty about the whereabouts of the paramedics, Red Crescent and United Nations officials found the bodies of the 15 emergency and aid workers buried in a mass grave in southern Gaza, accusing Israeli forces of killing them. Another worker is still missing.
Munther Abed, a volunteer for the Palestine Red Crescent Society, said he was responding to a call with two colleagues near Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, on March 23 when he was detained by Israeli soldiers shortly before they opened fire on other emergency vehicles.

As he was standing near the soldiers, he said he saw other emergency vehicles approaching the Israeli soldiers' position.
"I could see the vehicle of the Civil Emergency. The soldiers began shooting at the vehicles, they fired heavily," he said. "It was dark and I couldn't see what happened to the people there, but they [the soldiers] fired heavily. They asked me to duck down and they were firing heavily. I felt as if the bullets were hitting me personally."
On Saturday, the Red Crescent issued a video obtained from the cell phone of a paramedic found buried in the mass grave.
Filmed from inside a moving vehicle, it appears to show a clearly marked convoy of ambulances and a fire truck driving at dawn with their red lights flashing. After they stop by a vehicle that had veered off the road, two rescue workers and another man can be seen before a volley of gunshots is heard.
Reuters was able to verify the location of the video near the Tal al-Sultan area, west of Rafah city in Rafah governate.
The International Red Cross has expressed outrage that eight Palestinian medics were killed along with six Civil Defence first responders and a UN staff member by Israeli forces in southern Gaza.
Five ambulances, a fire truck and a UN vehicle were struck "one by one" in the al-Hashashin area on 23 March, according to a UN official. The 15 bodies were recovered from a "mass grave" on Sunday.

'It's a day of unity' in Europe: German Foreign Minister reacts to Trump's tariffs | CNN Amanpour - 6 April 2025 |
With Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs going into effect on Saturday, world leaders are grappling with how to respond to the chaos hitting markets across the globe. German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock joined Christiane from NATO headquarters in Brussels to discuss how Europe plans to retaliate.
Then, as Hungary withdraws from the International Criminal Court this week and Viktor Orban welcomes Benjamin Netanyahu, who's under an ICC arrest warrant for alleged war crimes in Gaza, Christiane asks former U.S. ambassador David Pressman, who served there until this year, whether Trump's America is following Hungary's autocratic playbook.
Also, after far-right politician Marine Le Pen was found guilty of embezzlement, Melissa Bell reports from Paris on what it means for France and the future of the National Rally party in the 2027 elections.
Christiane also speaks with two aid workers who've seen the horrors in Gaza up close; American physician Tanya Haj-Hassan just left Gaza after spending almost 6 weeks there, and Arwa Damon, a former CNN journalist turned charity founder is desperately trying to get back in.

"Point-Blank": Israeli Soldiers Execute 15 Gaza Medics & Rescue Workers, Bury in Unmarked Mass Grave | Democracy Now |
… and Europe’s leaders stay silent during the televised holocaust of Palestinian people …. SHAME!!
There are no words and this is inexcusable as these events will remain a stain on humanity of the Western world for generations … don’t ever talk about “democracy” and individual “freedom” or “superiority” the heavenly “garden” and the “jungle” out there … hypocrisy all around and complicity to the genocide as any attempt to stop the Israelis are absent. The West is morally corrupt and can only survive by weaponization of information, subversion of the facts and a war of propaganda. It will blow up in your faces sooner or later.
See my earlier report in the early moments after the horrific deeds of execution of these first responders. May the IDF executioners burn in hell.
