Tubman of Liberia spoke with moral clarity to Germany's leaders:--
I am opposed to Nazism not because it is of German origin, but because I have believed, and am convinced, that it was contrived to be, and is being used as, a subtle but potent instrument to effect the dissolution and destruction by treachery of everything that stands for moraliity, humanity, justice, righteousness and even common decency (Edward Kissi, Africans and the Holicaust, p.66).
Today one can substitute "Nazism" and "German" for any of the ideologies and countries that are making our world a dangerous place and "global education on genocide prevention" a mockery.

Gloria,
For the umpteenth time, China and Russia are looking the other way because like U.S, U.K and France, they prefer radical Zionism to radical Islamism in the middle East.

Assuming that they were looking away,this wouldn't be for long. Israel's bombingof a Russian air base in Syria changeseverything. China wants its commoditiesto move through the Gulf of Hormuzunimpeded, and in any case, theNeocons in Washington and Israelhave united the Dragon and the Bearthrough their myopic behavior.
The geopolitical architecture has
changed, and the military advantagemay not be on the side of Tel Avivand Washington.
It is one thing to massacreunarmed civilians, and another, toattack an adversary armed to theteeth with hypersonic missiles, andstate of the art drones, within anemerging coalition of resistance.
For personal gain, and with a falsesense of invincibility, Netanyahuand Biden -Harris may have sacrificedthe nation state of Israel. Timewill tell.
I loved those six observables thatProfessor Sabella Abiddearticulated. Without radical reformof presidential campaign financing,US administrations wouldcontinue to be puppets ofthe donors - and their agendas.

I expected, but didn't see the seventh "observable", which should have been why China and Russia (two world powers who are not Israel and U.S allies)were/are looking the other way while all these were/are happening.
I still (eagely) await this seventh 'observable".

Six Observables: First, in recent years, Israel has not gone to war without the support of the US and its allies. Netanyahu knows this, and that is why he is so cocky and eager to confront Iran. He knows he would not stand a chance without the support of the western military and intelligence. He knows it!
Second, the Israeli military can overtly and covertly attack Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, and Iran, and the world – afraid of the US and her allies – will say and do nothing about it. It is one of the reasons why Benjamin Netanyahu can get away with large-scale murders and exterminations.
Third, Ukraine has not suffered a tenth of the indignity, iniquity, and killings at the hands of Russia that Palestinians have suffered at the hands of the Israeli government. Still, you would think that the senseless killings and heart-wrenching destructions in Ukraine are a million times greater than what is going on in Palestine and Lebanon.
Fourth, for 35 years at least, an average of 50 Palestinians have died every month at the hands of the Israeli government. But when the Palestinians protested and demanded their right, many western media, institutions, and governments labeled them terrorists, troublemakers, and agents of destruction.
Fifth, the US government could have brought and can still bring the Palestinian-Israeli conflict to an end. No, oh no! Every American president since Ronald Reagan seems scared…scared of losing votes, scared of scathing media editorials, scared of losing monetary donations, scared of not being invited to Israel, and terrified of being labeled anti-Israel.
Sixth, some African presidents kowtow before US and Western European presidents. They take orders from them, and many even defecate and pee in their pants when they are summoned individually and collectively to Western capitals. Ironically, many western leaders kowtow before Benjamin Netanyahu. They are afraid of him, very afraid of him.
