  • In a genocidal war that has spiraled into a struggle for political survival, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition and the global powers

The article from CounterPunch, titled "War, Doublethink, and the Struggle for Survival: Geopolitics of the Gaza Genocide," discusses the ongoing conflict in Gaza through the lens of Orwellian "doublethink," where contradictory beliefs are held simultaneously. It critiques the international community's response to the violence, highlighting the hypocrisy and selective outrage in global politics. The piece argues that while the world condemns the violence in Gaza, there is a simultaneous acceptance or ignorance of the underlying geopolitical strategies that perpetuate such conflicts. It points out the role of major powers like the U.S. and Israel in maintaining a status quo that benefits their strategic interests, often at the expense of Palestinian lives. The article also touches on the broader implications of this conflict, including the manipulation of public opinion, the suppression of dissent, and the failure of international bodies to enforce human rights and peace. Ultimately, it calls for a reevaluation of how global conflicts are perceived and addressed, urging a move away from double standards towards genuine efforts for peace and justice.
