Death To America

If humanity is to survive, the United States must be destroyed.

US CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY & GLOBAL TERRORISM

US Use of Weapons of Mass Destruction The indiscriminate use of bombs by the US, usually outside a declared war situation, for wanton destruction, for no military objectives, whose targets and victims are civilian populations, or what we now call “collateral damage.”

Bahamas (late 1940s-mid-1950s) 

Canada (1953) 

China and Korea (1950-53)

Egypt 

South Africa 

Iraq

US Political and Military Interventions since 1945 The US has launched a series of military and political interventions since 1945, often to install puppet regimes, or alternatively to engage in political actions such as smear campaigns, sponsoring or targeting opposition political groups (depending on how they served US interests), undermining political parties, sabotage and terror campaigns, and so forth. It has done so in nations such as

US Perversions of Foreign Elections The US has specifically intervened to rig or distort the outcome of foreign elections, and sometimes engineered sham “demonstration” elections to ward off accusations of government repression in allied nations in the US sphere of influence. These sham elections have often installed or maintained in power repressive dictators who have victimized their populations. Such practices have occurred in nations such as:

Philippines (1950s) 

Italy (1948-1970s) 

Lebanon (1950s) 

Indonesia (1955) 

Vietnam (1955)

Mongolia (1996) 

Bosnia (1998)

US Versus World at the United Nations The US has repeatedly acted to undermine peace and human rights initiatives at the United Nations, routinely voting against hundreds of UN resolutions and treaties. The US easily has the worst record of any nation on not supporting UN treaties. In almost all of its hundreds of “no” votes, the US was the “sole” nation to vote no (among the 100-130 nations that usually vote), and among only 1 or 2 other nations voting no the rest of the time.

Other Lethal US Interventions CIA Terror Training Manuals Development and distribution of training manuals for foreign military personnel or foreign nationals, including instructions on assassination, subversion, sabotage, population control, torture, repression, psychological torture, death squads, etc.

Specific Torture Campaigns Creation and launching of direct US campaigns to support torture as an instrument of terror and social control for governments in Greece, Iran, Vietnam, Bolivia, Uruguay, Brazil, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, and Panama

Supporting and Harboring Terrorists The promotion, protection, arming or equipping of terrorists such as:

Klaus Barbie and other German Nazis, and Italian and Japanese fascists, after WW II

Manual Noriega (Panama), Saddam Hussein (Iraq), Rafael Trujillo (Dominican Republic), Osama bin Laden (Afghanistan), and others whose terrorism has come back to haunt us

Running the Higher War College (Brazil) and first School of the Americas (Panama), which gave US training to repressors, death squad members, and torturers (the second School of the Americas is still running at Ft. Benning GA)

Providing asylum for Cuban, Salvadoran, Guatemalan, Haitian, Chilean, Argentinian, Iranian, South Vietnamese and other terrorists, dictators, and torturers

Assassinating World Leaders Using assassination as a tool of foreign policy, wherein the CIA has initiated assassination attempts against at least 40 foreign heads of state (some several times) in the last 50 years, a number of which have been successful, such as: Patrice Lumumba (Congo), Rafael Trujillo (Dominican Republic), Ngo Dihn Diem (Vietnam) Salvador Allende (Chile)

Arms Trade & US Military Presence

The US is the world’s largest seller of weapons abroad, arming dictators, militaries, and terrorists that repress or victimize their populations, and fueling scores of violent conflicts around the globe

The US is the world’s largest provider of live land mines which, even in peacetime, kill or injure at least several people around the world each day

The US has military bases in at least 50 nations around the world, which have led to frequent victimization of local populations.

The US military has been bombing one Middle Eastern or Muslim nation or another almost continuously since 1983, including Lebanon, Libya, Syria, Iran, the Sudan, Afghanistan, and Iraq (almost daily bombings since 1991)

This, then, is a sampling of American foreign policies over the last 50 years. The FBI uses the following definition for Terrorism: “The unlawful use of force or violence committed by a group or individual, who has some connection to a foreign power or whose activities transcend national boundaries, against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.” This sounds like the terrorism we just experienced. It also sounds a lot like the US policies and actions since 1945 that I’ve just described.

This is a version of an an original page atributed to Robert Elias, a US Professor of Political Science , a list which, like so many others,  has otherwise ‘disappered’

“US Perversions of Foreign Elections” should also include 2018 Brazil, now that it is confirmed that the FBI directly intervened to have the frontrunner jailed, resulting in the election of Jair Messias Bolsonaro

[striped-urchins]

I’m currently working on translating some UN documents for a book dealing with south African diplomacy post-apartheid in the peace processes in Angola, Mozambique, Namibia and the like, and I can promise you that the death count included under “south Africa” does not even touch on how bad it was. The US in Angola for example, funded the anti-communist UNITA which continually stalled peace negotiations and led to one of the longest running civil wars in history. Of course, a lot of aid went to apartheid South Africa to join with Unita. Funny also that many South African units were trained and equipped via the Israeli military as well.

Approximately 500 000 people died in the Angolan civil war alone, abetted and prolonged largely by America.

Let’s also not forget that, as mentioned in the section on the UN, the apartheid regime would have collapsed way, way sooner were it not for US (and English, to a lesser degree) intervention. How many people died prematurely due to those apartheid policies is innumerable.

That’s not even starting on the horror that American monetary and “economic restructuring” policies have wrought in the global south, of which the death toll is unimaginable.

This post will forever be relevant.

[moistvonlipwig]

one of rgu's best takes about rape and incest is that rape and incest are not deviant. they are exceedingly normal. they are, in fact, the logical extension of patriarchal romance and the patriarchal family -- the same logic that underpins those structures facilitates abuse, rape, incest, and csa. many people, even those who nominally understand the idea of rape culture, conceive of rape as a deviation from cultural mores, and even more people view incest as an aberration, a twisting of the Family (which is Good) into something unnatural and evil. but rgu correctly identifies that rape and incest are outgrowths of patriarchal society, not alien intrusions upon it. incest is merely a symptom of the problem which is the patriarchal family itself. rape and domestic abuse are merely symptoms of the problem which is patriarchal & heteronormative romance and society itself. rather than rape being deviant, it is resistance to patriarchy which is deviant; rather than incest being abnormal, it is a girl holding out a hand to another girl in pain which is abnormal. because 'abnormal' does not mean 'bad' any more than 'normal' means 'good'. "fall in love normally, get married normally, have a normal family, and have a normal life -- but normal has nothing to do with us!"

[antigonas]

“I am your daddum, Lo. Look, I’ve a learned book here about young girls. Look, darling, what it says. I quote: the normal girl —normal, mark you— the normal girl is usually extremely anxious to please her father. She feels in him the forerunner of the desired elusive male (‘elusive’ is good, by Polonius!). The wise mother (and your poor mother would have been wise, had she lived) will encourage a companionship between father and daughter, realizing —excuse the corny style— that the girl forms her ideals of romance and of men from her association with her father.”

This moment from Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov reminded me of this post. How H.H insists that their relationship is “normal”, that normal girls feel an attraction to a father/father figure. But even though he is using this concept to manipulate Dolores into silence, those books exist, those ideas are understood to be what “normal girls” should feel or think. He is using those patriarchal concepts to manipulate her and justify his abuse. And just like in RGU, the romantic ideal is also bound to the family aka the patriarchal heteronormative structure, normality : in Utena is the prince the brother, here Humbert uses the father figure. like op says “[rape and incest] are exceedingly normal. they are, in fact, the logical extension of patriarchal romance and the patriarchal family -- the same logic that underpins those structures facilitates abuse, rape, incest, and csa.”

Nabokov is also able to identify this in his novel, and what is, I think (though i have not finished it yet) one of the main themes in the story.

If I had a nickel for every communist transfem I unfollowed because they posted something in favor of pedophilia and/or incest, I would have two nickels.

Which would be two very disappointing nickels that I shouldn't have.

I was certain they had better morals than that, but I suppose not.

hi, can you please explain what you meant by “if russia is your enemy in this war you are lost”? i’m not asking this to start a fight or anything, i’m genuinely curious and want to learn more <3

Because Ukraine started it, eleven years ago, when they attacked their own cities with missiles, and again in 2022 when they cried crocodile tears after ignoring a highly publicised treaty the government of the Russian Federation made with the government of my ‘country’, the Donetsk People’s Republic, and our sister nation, the Lugansk People’s Republic. A treaty which, amongst other things, established that should Ukraine continue to break the established ceasefire, Russia would intervene on our behalf. And Ukraine did break the ceasefire, in mere days after the deal was signed they attacked civilian water facilities in the D.P.R and cut off water access to over a quarter of a million people, along with other attacks on civilian infrastructure. Ukraine is a ethnonationalist fascist state with Neo-Nazis at every level of governance, and for the past eleven years it’s sole focus has been making the lives of Ukraine’s national minorities, especially the lives of those of us in the East, untenable, all while selling off our country to the highest bidder.

[hafizevna]

I cannot stress enough to people outside of the region that recognising the D.P.R and L.P.R was meant to be a measure of de-escalation.

[milf-king]

You've probably seen this NYT article by Nicholas Kristof getting a lot of praise today (moved to an archive link to avoid the paywall)

He reports on widespread rape and sexual violence of Palestinian male and female prisoners by Israeli authorities. The Palestinians who he interviewed risked their lives to speak out. Many of them were threatened with death and some were told they would be raped if they spoke up on the sexual violence they endured.

My issue is that neither Kristof or NYT deserve any credit for this article. Both NYT and Kristof are responsible manufacturing Israel's "case for genocide".

Even in this article where he is sharing actual testimonies from Palestinians who were subjected to such intense levels of sexual violence, he is spreading the Oct 7th rape hoax that has been debunked numerous times

I think everyone should read this article because courageous Palestinians risked their lives to tell their stories but don't forget that people like Nick Kristof and orgs like NYT have played an active role in this genocide.

Also huge trigger warning. This article has testimonies that are really hard to read so please keep that in mind

[stoptheantisemitism]

Oh my God the testimonies are so horrible I can't bring myself to read most of this.

Some of the testimonies are from children. Let that sink in. Children are risking their lives again to speak out against the sexual violence they already had to go through.

The IDF used dogs according to the testimonies. They filmed, took pictures, and laughed while doing all of this.

Never has an ideology needed to be ended more than Zionism. This is so horrific

Adding a source that specifically debunked the Oct 7th mass rape hoax that the NYT reported on

[milf-king]

That's a great source.

Also worth pointing out that the Oct 7th rape allegations that were weaponized were from ZAKA volunteers. These volunteers aren't trained to do anything but collect dead body parts which they then transfer to Jewish morgues.

ZAKA was formed by Yehuda Meshi-Zahav who is the same guy that lead Keshet which is a Jewish terrorist group. Yehuda is also well known for attempting suicide when it came out that he was responsible for over a dozen sexual assaults and rapes.

ZAKA was recruited to join Israel's Hasbara campaigns, they have been working directly on behalf of Netanyahu to shape propaganda, their operation unit commander has gone on record saying that he "puts aside medical consideration and decisions are made on who deserves treatment based on whether they are Jewish. If it's clear he is an Arab, don't save him."

Not to mention not one of these volunteers has been medically trained to make such an assessment.

That source I just linked does an amazing deep dive into this whole situation. I highly recommend giving that a read.

[tinyuglyworld]

Yes, All Jews.

All Jews must kill Zionism within Judaism

i cannot promote this article enough

i know the title is offputting for many, but the article is written by a jewish woman. its very important. i urge everyone in the imperial core, especially white people, to read this piece.

[stoptheantisemitism]

This was an amazing read. Amanda Gelender is so brave for writing this and a great anti Zionist Jew to follow

[stoptheantisemitism]

"Palestine doesn’t need Jewish co-signing to get free; Jews need to get serious, get out of Palestine, and rid Judaism of fascistic Zionism."

Reposting with one of my favorite quotes from this. If you're an anti Zionist Jew I'm urging you go read this and spread it.

If you're a Zionist Jew I'm also urging you to read this and reflect on why you have chosen to side with fascism and genocide.

like so much of Everything today is premised on the idea that the earth-shattering catastrophe which happened within living memory of everyone older than a third grader has had no meaningful material or psychological effects on the general public and i don't think that's good, lol.

"(some of) the top-line economic indicators (sorta) recovered (in most places) so everything is fine and we don't need to talk about it" is not a sustainable framework for interfacing with reality

In a tragic accident the Pentagon confirmed was currently under internal investigation, 340 million Americans were killed Tuesday in the course of a botched military training exercise.

According to top generals, the mishap occurred at Fort Bliss Army base in Texas, where members of the 1st Armored Division participating in a live training exercise repeatedly missed a practice target and unwittingly inflicted massive casualties on U.S. citizens downrange in all directions. The affected towns and cities were reportedly struck by fire from small arms, artillery, M1 Abrams tanks, and Apache helicopters, as well as thousands of long-range missiles, with nearly all victims ultimately succumbing to their wounds.

[Image Description: first image: tweet by Nerdeen Kiswani, @ NerdeenKiswani, that says "He resigned from the U.N. and ended his diplomatic career to leak the fact they're preparing for a nuclear weapon to bomb Iran.
