Jeffrey Sachs Tears Apart Joe Biden's Ukraine and Israel Catastrophes

Jeffrey Sachs is an economics professor and bestselling author who is a leading, highly-decorated formerly globalist intellectual. Now, he’s also known as the man who revealed Biden’s massive blunder in Ukraine.

Sachs launched a tirade against Biden, calling out how his “Ukraine plan” not only failed miserably but also cost tens of thousands of lives. There is blood on Biden’s hands right now, and the worst part about all of this is that Biden had a chance to stop it but didn’t.

The recent Human Rights Watch report on Israeli policy toward the Arabs of Israel and occupied Palestine reaches a stark and telling conclusion:

Israeli authorities methodically privilege Jewish Israelis and discriminate against Palestinians. Laws, policies, and statements by leading Israeli officials make plain that the objective of maintaining Jewish Israeli control over demographics, political power, and land has long guided government policy. In pursuit of this goal, authorities have dispossessed, confined, forcibly separated, and subjugated Palestinians by virtue of their identity to varying degrees of intensity. In certain areas, as described in this report, these deprivations are so severe that they amount to the crimes against humanity of apartheid and persecution.

Israel’s genocidal violence towards the Palestinian people appeals to much of the Israeli public for several reasons. First, always lurking in the shadows in Israel is the memory of the Holocaust. Politicians like Netanyahu have long stoked the terror of the Holocaust to argue crudely and falsely that all Palestinians want to kill all the Jews, so that the violent suppression of the Palestinians is a matter of life and death for Israel. Of course, as in any spiral of hatred, there is a self-fulfilling prophecy to Netanyahu’s rhetoric and actions, leading to counter-actions and hatreds from the other side. Yet rather than trying to solve those through dialogue, interaction, diplomacy, and peacemaking, the cycle of hatred is stoked.

Second, orthodox rabbis have expanded upon the security narrative by insisting that Israel has a sacred right to Palestine because God gave all the land from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean to the Israelites.

Which is of course, make believe and a myth created by the ancient Hebrews, not Europeans of the Jewish faith.
