To make peace last in the Middle East, the U.S. must end its blank check to Israel’s perpetual wars and join the rest of the world to force Israel to live within its internationally recognized borders of June 4, 1967.
It’s a long shot but here are five steps to stop this war, which could easily turn into a global conflagration, effectively into World War III, write Jeffrey Sachs and Sybil Fares.
The U.S. objective is not the security of the American people. The objective is global hegemony. The attempt is to destroy the U.N. and the international rule of law — an attempt that will fail.
It’s certainly not diplomacy and it’s not coercion. It is war conducted by economic means, all designed to produce an economic crisis and social unrest leading to a fall of the government.
The slogan has shifted from “restoring democracy” to “fighting narco-terrorists,” write Jeffrey D. Sachs and Sybil Fares. But the objective remains the same.
Even in the face of American intransigence, the world can act — and the U.S. government will stand naked and alone in its criminal complicity with Israel.
