Inhuman Animals!

I've always struggled with the idea of certain 'monsters' being described as, 'like animals!' or 'inhuman animals!' I look at the news, and see what fellow human beings are doing to one another, the supposedly okay ones, and to the habitat, the environment, the creatures with which they share this Earth, the planet they (supposedly) want their children and grandchildren to inherit and I think, 'really?' Ultimately, most non-human species behave much as they have always done, if left to their own devices, left alone in their own environment. Some appeal to our whims and tastes more than others. But, a great many of those real non-human animals actually look and behave quite beautifully. Non-humanly, beautifully so!

So, I consider the contemptuous remark to be very wide of the mark!

'Inhuman animals!' is what all Palestinians are currently being labelled as by various Israeli spokespeople, barely scraping out an existence in the rubble of Gaza and (more covertly so) the West Bank. Look at them scrabbling through the dirt and debris or sitting in rows, no better than 'inhuman animals,' as if awaiting slaughter and processing at an abattoir! Why, they're wearing clothes, fewer items, some of them. Their faces look human enough, if they're permitted to look up. They sound human enough if permitted to speak... But, they're 'inhuman animals!' Described by various Israeli spokespeople as such, when interviewed by the BBC and other Western 'news' outlets, often unquestionably so. Or, if questions are proffered, there are far too few of them, far, far too enablingly couched. Complicit!

'Inhuman animals!' So inhumanly animalistic that they (probably) deserve the treatment being meted out to them. Or, if not them, then someone they know, or someone they're hiding. Children too! 'Inhuman animals!' Easily told apart from the actual humans. The actual humans are the ones with the body armour, the tanks, and they're the ones flying the fighter jets and firing the missiles. The missiles provided, at least in good part, by other, more remote, real humans. Except, some of those more remote, real humans, hidden amongst them there are other 'inhuman-value-holding-animals.' 'Inhuman animals,' taking part in the wrong demonstrations, angry at the 'wrong' types of violence, because there's bad, 'inhuman violence,' and then there's, if not quite 'good,' then justifiable violence, or the violence of justice! Violence of the kind being meted out by the Israeli Defence Force.

The Times of Israel has called for a Genocide against those 'inhuman animals!' But then, that's okay because the Times of Israel is peopled by actual humans and the one's they're calling for a Genocide against are the actual 'inhuman animals!' Whoever Jeffrey Camras is (Chicago-based blogger) we know he's one of the actual humans because he has called for the Genocide against the 'inhuman animals.' "In order to make peace and move forward, Palestine must be obliterated," he wrote. And who could possibly argue that that isn't a 'peace' worth fighting for?

“Israel (and you the reader) needs to put its faith in the Torah and Hashem in order fulfil our destiny. Establish sovereignty over Har HaBayit. Do this today! .. Conquer remaining biblical lands in Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan. Do this diplomatically or militarily.” Good ol' Jeffrey Camras, an actual human, on the side of the angels. Or maybe not!

Israel’s Heritage Minister Amihai Eliyahu called for a nuclear bomb to be dropped upon Gaza.
Israel's Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Zipi Hotovely has said all Gazans should vacate their homes and walk, under unrelenting Israeli missile onslaught, to an empty strip of wasteland, al-Mawasi, where there is nothing, and they will presumably just huddle and await whatever Israeli justice deems fit.
Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant has said "There will be no electricity, no food, no water, no fuel, everything will be closed!" Just to clarify, he means 'closed for every man woman, child and baby.' "We are fighting against human animals!" the real human went on to say.
"Netanyahu, finish them, finish them (…) finish them!” Nikki Hayley of Fox News has ranted.
“We are in a religious war here. (…) Do whatever the hell you have to do. (..) Level the place.” US Senator Lidsey Graham preached.
Israel has been identified firing shells containing white phosphorus, white phosphorus missiles marked as supplied by the USA, along Lebanon's southern border (10th- 16th October 2023), more specifically at the town of Dhayra (16th)
Israeli troops routinely shoot at and murder unarmed children in Gaza and the West Bank.
Human rights groups continue to compile evidence of IDF military executions inside Gaza.
Where Israeli colonisers continue to murder and dispossess residents in the West Bank Israeli Minister for National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir has handed out thousands of rifles to speed the Ethnic Cleansing. "We're the landlords here, remember that, I am your landlord!" he has been filmed shouting.
With emblem from Yitzhak Rabin’s car clutched in his raised fist, Itamar Ben-Gvir shouted "We got to his car, and we'll get to him too!” Israeli President Rabin was assassinated on 4th November 1995. Ben-Gvir is now Minister for National Security.
Confusing! It's a (sort of) blessing that we have our high calibre of journos to assist us with navigating quite who are the real humans and who are the 'inhuman animals!' Otherwise, we could have too many of the wrong sorts of deaths occurring.

'Inhuman animals!' Identified as all the more 'inhuman' as of 7th May 2023. After which many actual humans have called for a better, a more just form of violence. Notice the difference! 'Inhuman animals' in sandals or loose shoes and ragged, non-military clothes, or else already buried under rubble, as opposed to actual humans in body armour, in ranks behind tanks, fighter jets and £millions in US and UK provided missiles and other violence-of-justice weaponry. Pick a side, or better, just accept that your government, on your behalf, has picked the actual humans over the 'inhuman animals.'

Arabs are like "drugged cockroaches in a bottle," Israeli Chief-of-Staff, General Rafael Eitan stated. One of the actual humans! Except General Rafael Eitan spoke these words in 1983, speaking at an Israeli Parliamentary Committee.
Israeli former President Isaac Herzog once stated " They are legitimate targets, simply because they “could’ve risen up, they could have fought against that evil regime.” He does not elaborate upon precisely which 'evil regime.' Presumably the Palestinians had elected to stand up against the wrong kind of 'evil regime.'
In 1969 Golda Meir proclaimed that “Palestinians did not exist.”
In 1982 Menachem Bagin described Palestinians as like “beasts walking on two legs.”
2013 saw Eli Ben Dahan describing the 'inhuman animals' as, "Palestinians are like animals, they aren’t human”
And yet it was 7th May 2023 that ushered in Gaza's 'inhuman animals!' Until that moment it was as if Paradise upon Earth had blossomed! Thank you Western Media, for helping us to see the light. The righteous light that we simply have to believe lies just the other side of all the smoke and dust and the atomised 'inhuman' flesh, blood and other body parts. Have faith. Do nothing, lest you too are deemed guilty of 'inhuman thought.'

Indeed there are monsters out there. They're not inhuman because Israel has and continues to demonstrate just how very human the most unspeakable types of violence can be! Israel continues to do so every day. And we are not even permitted platform to speak this truth!

I have considered and I strongly favour a course that's going to label me as guilty of 'inhuman thought, voice and sympathies!' Again and again, and again and again... I've identified those who have undertaken monstrous acts and they're not the ones currently dying in their tens of thousands.

Boycott Divest and Sanction!
