UN official resigns protesting world body’s failure to prevent genocide in Gaza
Craig Mokhiber, former director of the New York chapter of the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights
Press TV – October 31, 2023
The director of the New York chapter of the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights has resigned, protesting the world body’s failure to prevent underway genocide in the Gaza Strip, which has come under a brutal Israeli war.
Craig Mokhiber submitted his resignation to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Turk in a letter dated October 28. Reactions began to pour in across social media platforms, including X on Tuesday.
“Once again we are seeing a genocide unfolding before our eyes and the organization we serve appears powerless to stop it,” Mokhiber wrote, referring to the United Nations.
He was referring to the October 7 present war that the Israeli regime has been waging against Gaza in response to an operation launched by the territory’s resistance movements against the occupied territories.
The ongoing Israeli massacre has killed more than 8,600 Palestinians and left over 23,000 others wounded.
Mokhiber cited the United States, the UK, and much of Europe as “wholly complicit in the horrific assault,” referring to the Western allies’ consistent political and military support for the Israeli regime, which has bubbled up even throughout the war.
“This is a textbook case of genocide. The European, ethno-nationalist, settler colonial project in Palestine has entered its final phase, toward the expedited destruction of the last remnants of indigenous Palestinian life in Palestine,” the letter read.
The letter went on to call for an end to the Israeli regime’s occupation of the Palestinian territories, supporting the establishment of a “single, democratic” state “in all of historic Palestine, with equal rights for Christians, Muslims, and Jews.”

How GMO seeds and “RoundUp” are driving US policy in Venezuela
By Whitney Webb | MintPress News | May 6, 2019
CARACAS, VENEZUELA — As the political crisis in Venezuela has unfolded, much has been said about the Trump administration’s clear interest in the privatization and exploitation of Venezuela’s oil reserves, the largest in the world, by American oil giants like Chevron and ExxonMobil.
Yet the influence of another notorious American company, Monsanto — now a subsidiary of Bayer — has gone largely unmentioned.
While numerous other Latin American nations have become a “free for all” for the biotech company and its affiliates, Venezuela has been one of the few countries to fight Monsanto and other international agrochemical giants and win. However, since that victory — which was won under Chavista rule — the U.S.-backed Venezuelan opposition has been working to undo it. … continue

Aletho News 
More than ever before is the power of money as a weapon wielded by the Z-jCC’s (Zionist-jewish Controlled Countries). The Z-jCC is overtly and covertly revealed, from the hugely funded AIPAC like, to the commitment of those who propagandize. For the latter, it can be the likes of plastering posters proclaiming “kidnapped” by Hamas, when there are no partisans of any dimension compatible to even present the suffering, let alone the reasons why or to show the utter destruction wrought by Israel, the brutalization, imprisonment, child abduction, intentional starvation and murders.
The purpose of both the hugely funded and the actions of fanatic individuals is to foster sympathy and thus, have America give (its tax-payers) money to Israel, and now, to have war conducted by America in the form of a gigantic naval armada sent to Israel: a non-declaration of war by America, but war is “declared”, not for America, but for Israel.
Z-jCC. If not Zionist-jewish Controlled Country, then Zionist-jewish Conquered Country. Either way. Both ways to call what has happened to America.
Consider George Washington’s warning not to become involved in a foreign alliance. Consider how those of and in American elected Congress positions, of jewish affiliation, especially with dual citizenship, urge the abolition of the Bill of Rights and the Constitution to suit the promotion of Zionist propaganda. All of which leads to:
Israel is not an ally. It is the opposite.
