ZIAD IN GAZA

 

A new family joined us. They say it is temporary, but I don’t believe it. Over two months ago, when my sister and I evacuated for the third time, we thought it was temporary. It seems there is no end to our misery, it will just get worse. The family consists of a mother and her children – two teenage boys and one young girl. They are relatives of the host family. Them joining means even less space, less resources and more fear. But that is all OK. What scares me the most is all of us having to evacuate again. There is no place to go to.

I know many friends who had to distribute themselves over several places due to their big numbers or the fact that no single place can contain them. I saw a friend of mine in the street who told me that a part of his family went to the schools, he joined his friends in a studio apartment, another part went to relatives, and a few had a tent in an open area. When I hear things like this I wish that this is all a part of a novel or a soap opera, because it cannot be true.

I ask him how they keep in touch during the horrible and continuous communication cuts. He says that they try to send messages from time to time, and when the communication is completely shut down, they just go and visit each other. They go on foot, without any coordination, which means that he could walk for an hour and then not find anyone in their place because they are out trying to secure flour, water or wood to burn for warmth and cooking.

“But we are fine,” he says. “We are better than others. When I went to visit my family who are staying in a tent, I saw another family who told me that the only thing they ate in the last three days was raw onions. They had no money and couldn’t find any help.” I knew from him that he got them some food, which I am grateful for.

Biden’s Bear Hug of Netanyahu is a Disaster

By Jeet Heer

The Nation

 

The humanitarian pause between Israel and Hamas, which was always fragile, is now over. Even during the pause, Israel continued to kill Palestinian civilians, albeit in smaller numbers than before the hostage exchange with Hamas started. On Friday, the Israeli government cited a Hamas rocket attack as reason for ending the pause. More than 700 Palestinian civilians have been killed since the resumption of bombing, adding to a death toll of more than 15,000—the large majority of whom have been civilians.

The high civilian death rate brings to the fore the fundamental policy contradiction that has bedevilled the Biden administration since the start of the conflict: how to reconcile the stated desire to minimize civilian death with the full-throttle support of Israel that the administration is committed to in practice.

Speaking on Saturday at a National Defense Forum, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin added to the chorus of public rebukes the Biden administration is making of Israel’s treatment of civilians in the current conflict. Lloyd told the audience, “I have personally pushed Israeli leaders to avoid civilian casualties, and to shun irresponsible rhetoric, and to prevent violence by settlers in the West Bank.”

As befits his position as the cabinet official overseeing the Pentagon, Austin’s criticism of Israel focused not just on the violation of international law incurred by indiscriminately killing civilians, but also on the fundamental incoherence of Israel’s military strategy. Austin noted, “In this kind of a fight, the center of gravity is the civilian population. And if you drive them into the arms of the enemy, you replace a tactical victory with a strategic defeat.”

Austin’s caution is sober and compelling, but it ignores the fact that Israel’s incoherent policy is paralleled by the Biden administration’s equally incoherent handling of Israel. Since the Hamas massacre of October 7, Biden has followed what has been called a “bear hug” strategy of holding tight to Benjamin Netanyahu as a way to contain and channel Israel’s response. As Stephen Wertheim, a senior fellow in the American Statecraft Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, sums up the strategy, “Bear-hugging America’s ally, [Biden] apparently figured, was the surest way to restrain it—or the only way he was willing to try.”

In recent days, the bear hug has been accompanied by louder public criticism of Israel’s disregard for civilian life—sharp words that previously had been only uttered privately. At a press conference in Tel Aviv on Friday, just hours before the humanitarian pause was broken, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said that in speaking to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, “I underscored the imperative of the United States that the massive loss of civilian life and displacement of the scale that we saw in Northern Gaza not be repeated in the South.”

But this rhetorical emphasis on civilian life amounts to little in practice because on a policy level the Biden administration refuses to put any conditions on aid to Israel. There is absolutely no incentive for Netanyahu’s government to heed the pleadings of Austin, Blinken, or even vice president Kamala Harris, who has spoken in similar terms. On Sunday, Harris said, “Too many innocent Palestinians have been killed. As Israel pursues its military objectives in Gaza, we believe Israel must do more to protect innocent civilians.”

The true nature of the Biden approach to Israel was caught by a Wall Street Journal headline reading, “After sending massive bombs, artillery shells, U.S. also urges Israel to limit civilian casualties.” This is Biden’s Bear Hug strategy in its essence: “Send bigger bombs leavened with humanitarian platitudes.”

The Bear Hug strategy has failed in the most direct way possible: far from being restrained, Israel is fighting one of the most ferociously murderous wars in the 21^st century. It’s a war which, as Lloyd Austin notes, makes little strategic sense. Far from defeating Hamas, it will radicalize a new generation of Palestinians. Realizing this reality, Netanyahu is now shopping around a proposal to “thin out” Gaza’s population and expel the surviving residents into neighboring countries—a proposal that he is pitching to leaders in congress in both parties.

This policy, amounting to a second Nakba, would not only be a moral atrocity; it would destroy the reputation of Israel and the United States around the world for decades to come. The consequences of this policy, in terms of future terrorism and also loss of international credibility and fraying of alliances, would be incalculable.

The only way for Biden to stop this catastrophe is to reject the Bear Hug strategy and openly set forth the consequences to Netanyahu of pursuing ethnic cleansing. But there’s little evidence that Biden has either the inclination or the will to take such a step.

Politically, Biden is also undermining his own chances for re-election. Support for Israel continues to sink, particularly among key demographics that make up the Democratic coalition: the young, people of color and women. A Gallup poll released on Thursday showed that Israel’s policies in Gaza divided the country almost in half: with 50 per cent supporting Israel and 45 per cent opposing. But among the groups that helped Biden win in 2020—and that he needs to motivate again in 2024—the numbers are starker. Among women, 52 per cent oppose and 44 per cent support. Among voters aged 18 to 34, 67 per cent oppose and 30 per cent support. Among people of color, 64 per cent oppose and 30 per cent support. Among Democrats in general, 63 per cent oppose and 36 per cent support.

In other words, by giving the bear hug to Benjamin Netanyahu, Biden is giving the cold shoulder to women, young people, people of color and a strong majority of his own party. If these voters remain demoralized a year from now, then Biden’s chances for re-election are bleak.

Biden’s 2020 victory was strong in the popular vote but exceptionally narrow in the electoral college. A shift of less than 45,000 votes in three states (Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin) in 2020 would have led to Donald Trump’s re-election.

The Bear Hug strategy has already failed and continues to be an unfolding disaster. It endangers the long-term security of the United States as well as its international reputation. It also divides the coalition Joe Biden needs to win re-election.

The Biden administration is now becoming more vocal in criticizing Israel. That’s a welcome shift. But they also need to start criticizing their own failed strategy.

ZIAD IN GAZA

I see a child crying in the middle of the street. His mother was doing her best to calm him down, but she looked worn out. I sympathise with her and all parents. I remembered a phone call I had with a friend of mine recently. She and her family are now staying in a home with almost 50 other people. The men sleep downstairs and the women upstairs. When she heard that my sister and I are staying in a separate room, she jokes and says: “Wow! A private room is like a five-star suite.”

Like all Gazans, they are exhausted by the challenge of securing water. She tells me: “Last night, my seven-year-old son was sleeping downstairs with the men. My husband told me that he woke up in the middle of the night to use the toilet. He came back and woke his father up, he was crying and he started screaming, not caring about the other people trying to sleep. He told his father that there is no water, no tissues and the toilet is not clean.”

I listen and then I tell her that her son did what all of us wanted to do at some point. He woke up in the middle of the night and cried because he couldn’t fulfil one of his basic needs, which is using a clean bathroom.

My friend has lost her house, too. She did not cry, but all she said was: “The future ahead of us is very scary.”

 Lying on the couch, thinking about how there are no signs this nightmare will end any time soon, my sister asks me again about the name I chose for the cat.

“It is just a name, I don’t know why on earth I chose it, but I did.”

“What is it?”

“Hope.”

I shed no tears for Harvard, an institution that has inflicted untold misery and bloodshed on the world. For all I care, it could become the target of a hostile takeover by financial pirates trained in its own classrooms, access to which they gained through legacy admissions. This is, of course, pretty much what happened, at least in the mind of one of the homegrown Visigoths who breached its ivy-tangled walls in search of the university president’s head. 

I’m talking about Bill Ackman, the billionaire son of a multi-millionaire son (and Harvard grad) of a millionaire. Using Christopher Rufo’s playbook, Ackman leveraged his clout as a Harvard donor and former big man on campus to assail Claudine Gay, Harvard’s first black president, accusing her of turning Harvard Yard into a Hamas-training camp, and, for good measure, being a naughty plagiarist. Ackman recruited some strange allies for his regime change crusade, from the NYT to the vicious congressional grandstander Elise Stefanik. 

For her part, Gay proved an easy target, with her stumbling testimony before Congress and confused response to student anti-war protests on campus, which she should simply have defended on free speech grounds, something the Right claims, speciously in most cases, to support. 

Still, the forced eviction of Gay wasn’t about anti-semitism (how could it be with the bigoted Stefanik leading the charge?) or plagiarism, but the right-wing assault on academic freedom and the bi-partisan enforcement of pro-Israeli doctrine on campus. And they aren’t going to stop by claiming the heads of Penn and Harvard. Indeed, they’re not going to stop until they are stopped. The ouster of Gay and Penn’s Liz Magill has merely whetted their bloodlust. Rufo and Stefanik have already set their McCarthyite sights on decapitating the president of MIT (Sally Kornbluth) and Ackman has called for the resignation of the entire Harvard board for the crime of implementing diversity and inclusion policies that he deems racist. Ackman is also miffed that Gay retained her faculty position, writing on Twitter: “This makes no sense. How can she continue as a member of the faculty?” The super-rich get more pleasure out of firing people than having sex.

 Cheese! Congratulations.” Two words written by my friend on a small piece of paper inside a tiny nylon bag that contains two packs of cheese, each is 250g.

Recently, my displaced friends and I have started helping each other to find necessary products. The challenge these days is that there is no specific place to find anything. You find underwear at a library; food in an electronics shop; and glue at a spice shop.

As a result, my friends and I share our needs and all of us search for all of them. We leave any “treasure” we find at a pharmacy that is relatively close to all of us. When someone finds something for another person, he or she sends them an SMS. However, the communications were cut again, and no one could contact any other person. So, I decided to go to the pharmacy, in case someone had found something I was looking for. And I was right: my friend found the cheese.

A couple of days ago, another friend was looking for Cerelac (it is the brand name, but it is a wheat and milk cereal for children). So, every time I passed by a pharmacy I checked for him, and I kept my eyes open. It was raining heavily, the sewage water reached our ankles and we couldn’t avoid it. After half an hour of walking under the rain I was able to buy an umbrella, but it was too late. I bought another one for my sister. However, the one I was using broke immediately due to the very strong wind. So, I used the other.

After hours of walking and searching for several things, I passed by a pharmacy. I was holding the umbrella, soaking wet, and breathing heavily. I stood outside and asked: “Do you have Cerelac or any other alternative?” One pharmacist looked at the other and they asked me in. They told me that they have small amount that they sell only to their customers after it was cut from the market. He said: “The desperation in your eyes, you soaking wet and the umbrella played in your favour.” They thought that I was a father looking for one for his child, and I did not correct them. They gave me one pack for its regular price, not a doubled or tripled one. Something extremely rare these days.

The list of items that we keep trying to find for each other is long; it includes medicine, flour, yeast, pet food, cats’ litter, clothes, coffee, etc. My friend who found cheese is looking for rice. I hope to find her some soon.

One thing I am unable to wrap my head around is how our lives turned around from having jobs and full lives, to simply caring about mere survival and finding the basics. I wonder what else we will be looking for in the future.

Retrospectiva 2024

 

8 de janeiro foi contido, não derrotado

 

 

 

Conrado Hübner Mendes

Existiu algo de cínico e patético nas falas sobre o primeiro aniversário da tentativa de golpe de 8 de janeiro de 2023. O patético insuperável irrompeu da boca de Aldo Rebelo, para quem "atribuir tentativa de golpe a bando de baderneiros é uma desmoralização da instituição do golpe de Estado". A "instituição do golpe de Estado" realmente se desmoraliza diante de analista assim.

O cínico marcou presença no esforço retórico de simular normalidade e disfarçar a inapetência institucional para responsabilizar perpetradores intelectuais e materiais da violência política.

O STF disse apenas que o "tribunal agiu com celeridade e imparcialidade para investigar e responsabilizar os que atentaram contra a democracia". Alexandre de Moraes assegurou que "todos aqueles que tiverem a responsabilidade comprovada, após o devido processo legal, serão responsabilizados." Luís Roberto Barroso prometeu que "estamos enterrando definitivamente o golpismo no Brasil", "para evitar que isso aconteça de novo".

Lula afirmou que "a gente mapeou corretamente quem era que estava com quem, quem estava querendo ou não dar golpe". Alckmin foi mais analítico: "Não é possível punir só quem estava ali dentro. (...) Pode ser civil, pode ser militar, servidor público, privado, não importa. A lógica da República é que a lei é para todos. Aliás, digo mais: quanto maior a responsabilidade, a autoridade, o poder, maior deve ser o cumprimento da lei."

A verve triunfalista e abstrata dos discursos esconde o que quer, e revela o que não quer: a punição de gente poderosa e a prevenção de novas tentativas não só não começaram, como já parecem estar fora de cogitação. Os sinais e evidências são diversos.

Foram punidos a 16 anos de prisão, por exemplo, o pedreiro Charles dos Santos e a professora Cibele Matos, patrocinados a visitar Brasília e lutar pelo "Deus acima de todos", conforme lhes orientaram as redes de desinformação (as redes e provedores de conteúdo, a propósito, estão fora da lista de punidos). Aqueles com coturno, com dinheiro e muita vontade de instituir um regime de supressão de direitos e liberdades permanecem ilesos.

A distância entre os crimes de Charles e Cibele e os crimes dos líderes do porão é incomensurável. A coragem espalhafatosa para punir Charles e Cibele é diretamente proporcional à covardia para punir quem manda.

O espírito na capital do país, novamente, é o da "pacificação". Este termo, na história brasileira, é sinônimo de complacência, pacto de silêncio, omissão e impunidade. É uma forma dissimulada de capitular e violar o dever constitucional. Para completar a cartilha da prestidigitação, embrulha-se a renúncia num discurso de heroísmo.

A "pacificação" mais escandalosa, apesar de sua recorrência histórica, se dá com as Forças Armadas. Nenhum militar foi indiciado, denunciado ou preso. Todas as propostas de reforma normativa para democratizar e despolitizar os quartéis, semeadas dentro do próprio governo, foram abandonadas. A reabertura da Comissão de Mortos e Desaparecidos foi engavetada.

Militares foram também premiados. Nomeações de militares da ativa para ministérios continuam autorizadas. Levaram o maior orçamento do Programa de Aceleração do Crescimento (afinal, militares e "crescimento" têm muito em comum). As pensões vitalícias para parentes de militares foram mantidas.

Quando Lula diz que "perdão soaria como impunidade", ele definitivamente não olhava para os maiores articuladores e executores de golpe do passado e do presente. Generais e financiadores continuam a ter o sono sereno.

O Brasil continua a participar do fenômeno global de autocratização. Nos quatro anos anteriores, o país foi uma das lideranças desse processo. A celebrar, em 2023, apenas o fato de que o resultado eleitoral de 2022 foi respeitado e a tarefa democrática elementar de substituição de governo foi realizada. As instituições do país permanecem carentes de diagnóstico à altura da ameaça, e de um plano. Sobreviver importa, mas é pouco.

If it weren’t for someone I met in the street, I wouldn’t have realised that it is the final day of the year. Now, all days are the same – periods of time passing without any meaning, showing us how cheap our lives are.

Ahmad was in our room, checking on us, when I had this silly idea. I raised my hands as if I was holding a plate. I told him and my sister I was holding the imaginary cake of the New Year’s Eve celebration, and asked them about their wishes.

They gave me a look of “how stupid is this?”, but then Ahmad started, with his very horrible singing voice, singing New Year songs. We sang along for a couple of minutes. He left us, and we went to sleep.

That is how my year ended: displaced, sick, sad, unsafe, with the loss of many people, possessions and memories, and terrible mental health. It also ended with some singing and an imaginary cake.

Jeffrey St. Clair :

+ Argentina’s whacko new President Javier Milei has announced that his government will cut all social assistance to any citizen who “promotes, instigates, organizes or participates in street protests against his austerity program of ‘shock therapy.’ According to a Lancet study “shock therapy” privatization killed millions in the former Soviet Union and reduced the life expectancy of Russian men from 65 years in 1988 to less than 60 years by 2006…who would want to protest that?

+ One of Milei’s first presidential decrees will permit Argentine employers to pay their workers in meat, milk, or even bitcoin instead of cash. Welcome to Crypto-feudalism.

Every time Biden moves closer to Trump, Trump moves deeper into fascism.

JEFFREY ST. CLAIR 

Biden is so desperate to secure funding for his Ukraine war that he’s told the Senate he’s willing to adopt draconian immigration measures that would place drastic limits on asylum, impose a vast expansion of mandatory detention and mass deportation without due process and accelerate border wall construction. He’s essentially adopting Trump’s border plan.

+ Some Democrats can see the writing on the wall, even if they’re unwilling to stop him. Sen. Alex Padilla: “If he does go too far in the Trump direction when it comes to this, it’s going to be felt at the ballot box next year. No doubt about it.”

  Of course, every time Biden moves closer to Trump, Trump moves deeper into fascism. So it was no surprise that shortly after Biden announced his eagerness to reach the most extreme anti-immigration bill in 30 years, Trump took to the stage and began paraphrasing Hitler on immigrants: “Nobody has any idea where these people are coming from, and we know they come from prisons. We know they come from mental institutions [and] insane asylums. We know they’re terrorists. Nobody has ever seen anything like what we’re witnessing right now. It is a very sad thing for our country. It’s poisoning the blood of our country. It’s so bad, and people are coming in with disease. People are coming in with every possible thing that you could have.”

+ We were reminded this week of Ivana Trump’s 1990 interview with Vanity Fair reporter Marie Brenner, where Trump’s former wife said a friend of the family “clicks his heels and says, ‘Heil Hitler'” every time he entered Trump’s office. The article says that Ivana told her lawyer, the late, great Michael Kennedy, that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler’s collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed. Kennedy now guards a copy of My New Order in a closet at his office, as if it were a grenade.” Brenner asked Trump about the book. “It was my friend Marty Davis from Paramount who gave me a copy of Mein Kampf,” Trump admitted. And he’s a Jew.” Davis told Brenner, “I did give him a book about Hitler. But it was My New Order, Hitler’s speeches, not Mein Kampf. I thought he would find it interesting. I am his friend, but I’m not Jewish.”

+ In the very first chapter of Mein Kampf Hitler wrote: “In the north and in the south the poison of foreign races was eating into the body of our people, and even Vienna was steadily becoming more and more a non-German city.”

A couple of chapters later Hitler really lets loose (though whether Trump’s attention span is capable of lasting that long is an open question):

Unfortunately the German national being is not based on a uniform racial type. The process of welding the original elements together has not gone so far as to warrant us in saying that a new race has emerged. On the contrary, the poison which has invaded the national body, especially since the Thirty Years’ War, has destroyed the uniform constitution not only of our blood but also of our national soul. The open frontiers of our native country, the association with non-German foreign elements in the territories that lie all along those frontiers, and especially the strong influx of foreign blood into the interior of the Reich itself, has prevented any complete assimilation of those various elements, because the influx has continued steadily.

+ Lindsey Graham on Trump’s rant about immigrants “poisoning the blood of our country”: ”You know, we’re talking about language. I could care less what language people use as long as we get it right.”

+ Trump denied having quoted Hitler, saying he’d come up with the phrase “poisoning the blood” on his own, which isn’t as exculpatory as he might think, and then almost immediately vowed to implement a religious test for immigrants if he is elected:  “If you don’t like our religion…then we don’t want you in our country.”

Jo Koy’s Monologue and Other Moments From the 2024 Golden Globes

 

 "The Golden Globes had a lot to prove Sunday night. It was the award show’s return to a primo broadcast time slot after a series of scandals over finances and lack of diversity upended what used to be known as the biggest party of the year in Hollywood. Now privately owned with a greatly expanded pool of voters, the Globes were making a bid for relevance. Did that bid succeed? Well, it helped that this was the first major televised ceremony since the writers’ and actors’ strike brought Hollywood to a halt, and stars and studios looking to goose their Oscar chances turned out after some skipped last year’s event. Then again, this wasn’t the liveliest show. Here are the highs and lows as we saw them."

"O receio de um “banho de sangue” atemorizou policiais que destoaram dos colegas das selfies e tentaram impedir as invasões às sedes dos Três Poderes. Alguns agentes da PM, que tentavam conter a turba, chegaram a ser jogados da plataforma onde ficam as cúpulas do Congresso e golpeados na cabeça com barras de ferro.

 — Eles começaram a me espancar e ficavam gritando: “Mata, mata, mata, mata”. Deram pancadas de ferro na minha cabeça, desmaiei duas vezes. O capacete amassou — relatou o subtenente Beroaldo Junior, do Batalhão de Choque da Polícia Militar do DF.

A cabo Marcela da Silva Pinno, que também fazia parte da equipe que tentava conter os invasores, também conta que foi espancada durante a invasão ao Congresso.

— Quando eu estava no chão, era chute, pontapé, barra de ferro na cabeça, e eles tentaram puxar a minha arma. Fuiagredida de todos os lados, tanto que fiquei com o corpo inteiro cheio de hematomas — disse ela."
