"As Western states have grown increasingly unnerved by signs of popular unrest at home, they have started to think more carefully about how to sidestep the restrictions placed on them by international law.
"The term refers to a body of laws that were formalised in the aftermath of the second world war, when both sides treated civilians on the other side of the battle lines as little more than pawns on a chessboard.
"The aim of those drafting international law was to make it unconscionable for there to be a repeat of Nazi atrocities in Europe, as well as other crimes such as Britain’s fire bombing of German cities like Dresden or the United States’ dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
"One of the fundamentals of international law – at the heart of the Geneva Conventions – is a prohibition on collective punishment: that is, retaliating against the enemy’s civilian population, making them pay the price for the acts of their leaders and armies.
"Very obviously, Gaza is about as flagrant a violation of this prohibition as can be found. Even in “quiet” times, its inhabitants – one million of them children – are denied the most basic freedoms, such as the right to movement; access to proper health care because medicines and equipment cannot be brought in; access to drinkable water; and the use of electricity for much of the day because Israel keeps bombing Gaza’s power station.
"Israel has never made any bones of the fact that it is punishing the people of Gaza for being ruled by Hamas, which rejects Israel’s right to have dispossessed the Palestinians of their homeland in 1948 and imprisoned them in overcrowded ghettos like Gaza.
"What Israel is doing to Gaza is the very definition of collective punishment. It is a war crime: 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks of every year, for 16 years.
"And yet no one in the so-called international community seems to have noticed."

Lawless in Gaza: Why Britain and the West back Israel’s crimes

UNITED NON COMPLIANCE WITH WORLD WAR THREE
Kissinger's long term plan, decided long ago, is clear: tie Russia's military down in Ukraine, despite this destroying Ukraine, then tie Iran's military in a war in Israel and Palestine, despite this destroying both Israel and Palestine, then go for an offensive against China using Taiwan as an excuse. All of this to try and make sure the dollar, or the CBDC which will replace it, comes out on top at the end.
The problem with this plan is that the West will lose all these wars. But what does a centegenarian care? For him all that matters is dollar supremacy. The problem is: this will achieve the opposite: this arrogance will lead to the accelerated collapse of the dollar. This is why the globalists want it. For them the Western/Globalist CBDC is a vehicle to not pay the price for all their crimes and mass theft, now valued in dollar debt.
The transition to CBDCs has to be global or it won't work. Hence all other currencies need to be destroyed first.The only reason for war is not Ukraine, it's not Israel, it's not Taiwan, it's a desperate last resort attempt to sink the alternative currencies to the dollar first, and then after the Euro and other currencies have tanked to accelerate the conversion path to the CBDC with the dollar having the bigger purchasing power, after which hyperinflation due to this constant money printing to fund private bank bailouts and bankers bonuses, pharma bailouts, Covid lockdowns and wars will erode the dollar debt and only the CBDC will have value in their eyes.
If need be, after crashing Bitcoin ("Hamas and Iran use it, etc.") they will also try and confiscate gold or manipulate its value. This is what the Western oligarchy will go to WW3 for, and they will want us and our children to fight this war.
Historical note: In the Iraq war, they went straight for the gold. In the Ukraine coup in 2014, the first thing allegedly to fly out of Kiev was a plane full of Ukraine's gold, in WW2, the US got involved only to get to Germany's and Italy's gold before the Soviets, and then that is what they used to offset the Marshall plan spending. This is because when hyperinflation hits, gold keeps its value, and they always knew that fiat currencies, including the dollar, sooner or later collapse, in this case especially due to the corruption of the oligarchy which also rules the Fed.
The collapse of a currency is not pretty, ask the Russians who lived through it in 1998. This is when people turn against their "rulers". This is why they want us to have digital IDs and live in 15 minute surveillance ghettos, to prevent us from turning against them when the fiat currencies collapse due to astronomic theft by the oligarchy. This is also one of the reasons they wnted to depopulate us or weaken us with the toxic injections they want to regularly mandate on us.
I stick to the original statement: UNITED NON COMPLIANCE with the oligarchy's psychopathic wars.
