We were recently 'treated' to a real horror show. No, not a movie, but one of the most horrific things I've ever witnessed. Netanyahu, the evil war criminal, who is driving the Gaza genocide and angling for war in the Middle East, travelled to the USA to address Congress. Although a large group of mainly democrats boycotted his address, the majority of the house attended, applauding his delusional and deranged speech many times.
Notable by his wholly predictable presence was fascist Elon Musk, who, since taking over Twitter, has turned it into a platform for right-wing hate speech*. He was invited by the war criminal - surprise, surprise!
Of course, millions of Americans objected to the war criminal's visit, and there were large protests near the Capitol attended by many thousands. The speakers included Jill Stein, who is the Green Party candidate in the forthcoming presidential election.
This was a dark day for America and another dark day for democracy, such as it is in the US and the West. The slaughter in Gaza continues, and we have now passed the 300-day mark with no end in sight.
Despite this, many millions around the world will continue to protest and fight for a free Palestine. "Free, free Palestine!"
* I have recently been banned from Twitter. They haven't given me a reason, but I have no doubt that there is a connection with my many posts supportive of the Palestinian cause.
