This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal.”
US Airman Aaron Bushnell spoke of the slaughter and deliberate starvation of Gaza before immolating himself in protest at the Israeli Embassy.

Aaron Bushnell saw something important about the genocide in Palestine. This is not just about Gaza. The slaughter there may be the worst thing in the world, but similar atrocities are happening all over, and for similar reasons. The corporate / colonial Empire centered on the USA and spearheaded by Israel insists on consuming and dominating everything, and they are destroying the world to keep control over it.

They are wreaking extreme violence everywhere, including within the imperial nations themselves. If you want to see what the future holds, look at Gaza. Or Haiti, or Congo, or Libya, or any of a dozen other places.

Haiti is Gaza

Haiti, the western part of the Caribbean island of Hispaniola, was once a French colony. People there are not being starved and massacred wholesale like in Gaza, but they are being ground down into abject misery, have absolutely no control over their government, and have been occupied off and on since 1915 by the US or forces organized by the US.
