Transmitted below is a link to a report on the "unified
stance" of the reputational walking dead of the G7 with the
respect to the situation in Gaza.
The five white former imperial/colonial powers (including the
"honorary whites" of Japan, so designated by the South African
apartheid regime) and the settler-colonial state of Canada
have fallen into line behind the current position of Israel's
wholly-owned subsidiary, the United States of America, in
advocating "humanitarian pauses" in Israel's ongoing genocidal
massacres of innocents in Gaza but not a ceasefire and
an end to them.
By so doing, they have reconfirmed their wishes that Israel
should continue its genocidal massacres of innocents for as
long as Israel derives satisfaction and pleasure from them.
On October 20, I wrote that advocating "humanitarian aid" or
"humanitarian pauses" in the perpetration of a genocide while
simultaneously supporting the continued perpetration of that
genocide "is the cynical moral equivalent of advocating that
Holocaust victims be offered a cold drink on their way to the
gas chambers."
And so it remains.
