Now that the international legal system of humanitarian protection from war has been thrown in the bin by the Israeli government, in Gaza, no one is safe. It has already killed 60 journalists in addition to the 15,000 defenceless women and children of Palestine, in their revenge drive for the October massacre by Hamas.

No one, Muslim, Hindu, Christian, Druze or Jain is now safe from the indiscriminate killing capacity of the US-supplied strike aircraft of the IAF with its lethal missiles, rockets and bombs, in its quest for complete domination of the Middle East and, in particular, of all that land from Cairo to the River Jordan – as, apparently, promised to them by God: notwithstanding that Netanyahu, the chief protagonist, is a secular Jew who never goes near a synagogue.

However, he has his career prospects to consider, so the deliberate killing, by the IDF, of acclaimed Al Jazeera journalist, Shireen Abu Akleh, just a year ago together with, now, at least 59 other unarmed, media reporters, is just another bloodied step along his career path, as he tears up international treaties on human rights and the rules of war.

Eventually, of course, he will be indicted before the ICC, under charges of war crime.

Meanwhile, however, this Likud leader of the Political Zionists, is power-hungry, as was his mentor and idol, Vladimir Jabotinsky, the leader of the former terrorist paramilitary, ETZEL, the Irgun Zvai Leumi, and, incidentally, the previous employer of Netanyahu’s father, Benzion.

Of course, Jabotinsky has long since gone but Political Zionism and the principle of forcibly annexing land to double or treble the size of the Israeli state, is still extant in the mind and actions of this now aging demagogue who still decides who will live, and who will die, among the 2.2 million of now destroyed Gaza.

If he is not stopped, WW3 is likely to ensue as a direct consequence of this escalating attack on 2.2 million civilians, and then both Israel and Gaza will be immaterial in the context of a global war with nuclear and chemical weapons being deployed.  Already, the EU and other nation states around the world are preparing for war.   At some point, soon, human survival itself will be at risk.
