“Let’s be precise about the mechanism. Israel issues what the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights has formally called ‘blanket evacuation orders’ — broad, sweeping directives covering entire towns or regions, typically issued with minimal notice and directed at civilian populations in areas Israel intends to subsequently demolish.”
Contrast this with the science fiction classic “The Day the Earth Stood Still,” released in 1951, a scant six years after the end of WWII in 1945 with its 60-75 million dead, and the founding of the United Nations in October of that year so that there would be no such repeat (not entirely successful in that endeavor). The movie makes an unspecified reference to the UN, it is worth including the remarks of Klaatu, the space alien:
“I am leaving soon, and you will forgive me if I speak bluntly. The universe grows smaller every day, and the threat of aggression by any group, anywhere, can no longer be tolerated. There must be security for all or no one is secure. Now, this does not mean giving up any freedom, except the freedom to act irresponsibly. Your ancestors knew this when they made laws to govern themselves and hired policemen to enforce them.
“Now, we of the other planets have long accepted this principle. We have an organization for the mutual protection of all planets and for the complete elimination of aggression. The test of any such higher authority is, of course, the police force that supports it. For our policemen, we created a race of robots. Their function is to patrol the planets in spaceships like this one and preserve the peace. In matters of aggression, we have given them absolute power over us. This power cannot be revoked. At the first sign of violence, they act automatically against the aggressor. The penalty for provoking their action is too terrible to risk.
“The result is, we live in peace, without arms or armies, secure in the knowledge that we are free from aggression and war, free to pursue more... profitable enterprises. Now, we do not pretend to have achieved perfection, but we do have a system, and it works. I came here to give you these facts. It is no concern of ours how you run your own planet, but if you threaten to extend your violence, this Earth of yours will be reduced to a burned-out cinder. Your choice is simple: join us and live in peace, or pursue your present course and face obliteration. We shall be waiting for your answer. The decision rests with you. Gort, berenga.”
A properly designed and functioning UN would emulate that so as to have put an end to the genocide in Gaza.

Let me see if I got this right – Israel wants to displace all those people from their homes, their communities, because Israel wants to allay never-ending safety and security concerns because previous incursions and land aggrandizements by Israel in Lebanon have met with armed resistance and opposition to Israeli incursions and land aggrandizements…

This is one that can’t wholly be laid on the Zionists, they learned from the British during the Mandate. “It worked for them against the Palestinians, why not for us?”

Israel’s debt to Hitler is incalculable. First, without him there’d be no Israel, Zionism would have faded from the scene and the world would not have had to tolerate, suffer its over one hundred years of baneful existence. Second, “Never again!” really means, “For us, for others still okay!” Third, “Lebensraum” is just another form of real estate development, it's just a response to the market, so why not?
Simply magnificent. Much to this here: "And then, of course, the Palestinian territories—an ongoing reality so entrenched it’s discussed less like a crisis and more like background noise, which might be the most damning part of all." It is precisely the reason why Yawah Sinwar okayed Oct. 7th. He knew that with so-called "normalization" in recognition of Israel imminent, the Palestinians would be erased from history by Israel and a complicit, enabling West. A terrible decision weighed down upon him, some elemental - only barely - life for the Palestinians, or assertion of their existence, meeting with certain slaughter. Which hell does one choose?
Historical point. I can't recall the details, meaning exactly when, but there was a plan or an idea to sent Jews to Madagascar, pre- or post-WWII I don't remember. Your island thesis would have been put to the test.
What's the proverb? "There is none so blind as they who will not see." That's the depressing state of the world at the moment.
The political class refuses to face facts about the crimes of israel while buying up the latest surveillance gadgetry from the whiz-bang, venture capital, start-up, entrepreneurial con-merchants cashing in on the militarisation of life.
It does seem as if the political class thinks they can just bluff their way through this on-going genocide and extended ethnic cleansing and come out the other side without any blood on their hands. Well, it's not being seen that way by some of us - many of us? - and we're never going to forgive our governments for they way they have failed us. They could take a stand against the oppressors, but they have chosen complicity because it's more comfortable, easier, more profitable (post-politics directorship/consultancy anyone?). It's truly shameful.
You may already know, but the largest investment made by the Australian sovereign wealth fund is in Palantir. It / we (without consultation) own more than $100 million worth of shares in the psychopaths.
We’ve said before, listen to them if you want to know what they are doing. You don’t need witness statements, or clues. They say what they are doing and will be doing and thats that.

I'd go as far as issuing orders for all genocide Zionists to evacuate the planet. Otherwise, they'd just continue to pollute from another location.
"I'd go as far as issuing orders for all genocide Zionists to evacuate the planet."
Good point, well stated. I'm inspired, may I continue it a bit further? How 'bout out of the solar system?
The farther, the better!
Hear ya, but in truth, still not far enough...
The best outcome would be if the rocket they're travelling on ran out of fuel somewhere in outer space.
Or headed to the sun...

We really are living in the bleakest of times.
Thanks James for giving us more to think about.
You may already know, but the largest investment made by the Australian sovereign wealth fund is in Palantir. It / we (without consultation) own more than $100 million worth of shares in the psychopaths.
As you say, we have never been consulted about this. It stinks.
I’ll back that up with a ref:
