It is as Karl says kaput, or very close to being so. A parrot (deceased).

And what will take its place is a very moderate, friendly, socialist tinged zionism from the influential and powerful current of Jewish opinion which has consistently spoken out for peace and solidarity in the Levant. There will be a Palestinian state and there will be a Jewish state. And over the course of a generation or less they will confederate into One State- from the river (and some probably) to the sea- in which all will live together in peace and friendship.

All that stands in the way is the rotting corpse of the old world- the greedy careerists polluting politics everywhere, unbalanced demagogues, foreigners fishing in troubled waters. like the Sissis and Erdogans, Kier Starmers and Joe Bidens, Trumps etc of this world for whom national tragedies are just opportunities for vote collecting , fund raising, weapon selling and other obscenities.

I just hope that people have been keeping score and recorded the enthusiasm with which, for example, the entire governing caste in NATO threw its collective weight, money and information machine behind the assault on Gaza. Without them thousands of children and civilians would be alive today. But they insusted that it was OK to bomb hospitals, that is was cool to reduce cities to piles of rubble and it showed remarkable restraint on Israel's part that all human life in Gaza had not been snuffed out.

The Zionist project may be kaput but, unhappily, the wider imperialist project still requires to be put to death.

Thank you Karl for that report, it is always a worthy time spent.

John Helmer contributes some analysis as to the casualties in the Gaza district of Palestine. In addition to the consistent Russian attitude toward the illegal occupier, there is the persistent crime against humanity that Russia is yet to address in any conclusive way.
