The Hague Created to Protect Jews From Genocide is Now Prosecuting Jews For Genocide

The Hague International Court of Justice, which was created from the ashes of the Holocaust to protect from genocide and war crimes against the Jews, is now being accused of genocide itself against Palestinians in Gaza.

Israel has said their actions in Gaza are in response to the 0ctober 7 attack on its country by Hamas, who committed terrible atrocities upon unarmed Israeli civilians.

The question here is, if Hamas had the chance to commit mass genocide on the entire population of Israel, would they do it? The answer to that is, of course, and is the fundamental view of all Palestinians.

How does one treat people who deny your very right to existence?

Any other nation would treat these people with as much brutality as the Israelis are doing, simply because there can be no reasoning with a force that wants you completely erased from the earth.

If a people like the Jews who have been hunted, discriminated upon and murdered for thousands of years is brutal in its defence, they are justified to be brutal.

People in the mollycoddled West cannot understand for one second what it may be like to live in a nation surrounded by enemies who deny your right to exist and if had the opportunity would commit mass genocide on all of Israel.

Yes, Israel and the IDF have been brutal, they have engineered an incursion into Gaza to remove Hamas, where Palestinians have paid the price for their support of Hamas. Israel, once again, is justified in its actions, brutal as they may be.

If the Palestinians had agreed for the right of Jews to exist in Israel, none of this brutality would have been necessary. Certainly, it is sad to see the people of Gaza suffering, but their allegiance to Hamas in the whole part is irrefutable.

The unfortunate part of this entire exercise is that Israel’s response to the October 7 attack is that entire new generations of Arabs/Persians in the Middle East have become inflamed with even more hatred, and this hatred will carry on for centuries.

The Hague court case, led by South Africa, does not condemn Hamas for its atrocities, instead choosing to accuse Israel of ‘genocide’ is truly ironic since The Hague itself was created after the Holocaust in WW2.

The genocide convention, drawn up in 1948 after the second world war and the murder of 6 million Jews in the Holocaust, describes the crime as “acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole, or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group”. The acts include killing members of the group or causing them serious bodily or mental harm.

There are only 7,208,000 Jews in Israel, a people who have been chased and persecuted for thousands of years simply for being Jewish, they have been denied the right to exist on this earth, and it is justifiable that they respond with ferocity after thousands of years of hatred and genocide against their own kind. If any other nation was in the same position, they would do the same.

Beverly Hills Ceremony: Prince Harry Named ‘Living Legend of Aviation’

The Duke of Sussex is to be inducted into the Living Legend of Aviation for his contribution to global warming and climate change with his overuse of private jets to go everywhere.

Harry will be inducted next Friday at an awards ceremony hosted by Scientologist and aviation ambassador John Travolta in Beverly Hills, California.

The event was set up to honour those who make significant contributions to aviation and aerospace.

The Duke, 39, flies practically everywhere in private jets, usually with his wife Meghan. The ceremony will even enact a private jet journey of a mere 20 miles costing over $450,000 contributing over 250 tonnes of carbon emissions into the atmosphere.

“It was a shopping trip to Beverly Center to buy some organic ethically sourced tea leaves shipped over from the Himalayas, and we bought a tea towel as well,” the prince quipped recently, proud of his actions.

Living Legend of Aviation

Since hooking up with Meghan Markle, the private jet trips have accelerated to at least three or four trips per week. It is estimated that the Duke has contributed to carbon emissions equalling that of five African nations’ yearly output. During his tour of Afghanistan, Harry flew for only 20 weeks. Therefore, a ‘Living Legends of Aviation award’ would be a ridiculous thing to give him, so this is why they gave him an award for private jet flights taken instead.

Harry will take his place alongside other aviation and aerospace “legends” including Buzz Aldrin, Jeff Bozos, Tom Cruise, Harrison Ford, Morgan Freeman, Elon Musk and Saudi Prince Sultan bin Salman Al Saud.

Other aerospace icons set to be inducted alongside Harry this year include US navy pilot Fred George and former world speed record holder Steve Hinton.

A statement on the event’s website said: “Prince Harry is a consummate environmentalist whose overuse of private jets has contributed heavily to global pollution, climate change and environmental misery.

“He has dedicated his life to nothing but his own wellbeing, pleasure and private jet trips.”

Surely, not all Americans are this fucking dumb?

Four Captured Israeli Female Soldiers Paraded By Hamas! Should Women be Put in Frontline?

Four Captured Israeli Female Soldiers Paraded By Hamas! Should Women be Put in Frontline?

It is truly a sickening sight to see these four captured Israeli female soldiers being paraded by Hamas on social networks. The worst part of the video is the contrast of the girls dancing around in their soldier uniforms prior to being captured by Hamas, then detained in Gaza for three months.

Israel is invariably in a dire situation and the IDF calls up men and women, however is it right for vulnerable women to be put in the frontlines of the fight? Maybe, it is time the IDF reconsidered their stance, and kept women in the rear, because events like this capture of four female soldiers will not be good for moral. The captured Israeli female soldiers are proof that women are unsuitable for frontline combat duties in military operations.

Liri Albag, 18, from Moshav Yarhiv; Karina Ariev, 19, from Jerusalem; Daniella Gilboa, 19, from Petah Tikva; and Agam Berger, 19, from Holon, were shown in a Hamas propaganda video after they were abducted on October 7.

Please give a thought for the plight of these four young women who are now prisoners of a cruel terrorist organisation Hamas, and who have been in captivation for more than three months. Surely something can be done to free them?

Women should not be put into combat and pose a great risk not only to themselves but other units around them. Even in dire desperation, to put these young females in the line of fire seems insane, because it is inevitable they will become casualties of war.

Prince Andrew is Being Turfed Out of Royal Lodge – Where Will He Go?

Prince Andrew is Being Turfed Out of Royal Lodge – Where Will He Go?

There was a time when Prince Andrew was balls deep whacking away at some prostitute procured by the Prince’s fiendish business friend Epstein on an exotic island or a yacht. Those heady days of Bacchus are far behind Andrew now, who has been thrown in the shitter of moral outrage by the alleged former highly paid escort Virginia Giuffre, and her Madam Ghislaine Maxwell. It was okay to fuck princes and ex-presidents when the money was good, but when that dried up, it was time to turn victim and go to the press and courts to extract more money, in the guise of ‘moral outrage’ and ‘victimhood’ of course. Money is undoubtedly the key to everything, and without enough money one cannot be a functioning royal any more, or even a functioning prostitute for that matter.

After a 20-year squatting session at Royal Lodge, time is up for the beleaguered Duke of York. The King is preparing to withdraw private funding for security at the 30-room property in Windsor, which Prince Andrew has lived in since 2003 and shares with his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York.

Where will the Duke of York Prince Andrew go next?

Here are some ideas for Prince Andrew to entertain and possibly act on.

1) Jaywick, Essex — This sleepy town has plenty of empty, burned out properties for living in. The beach promenade is littered with used syringes and condoms, and you only have to wait till it gets dark to experience the nightlife. Frequent stabbings and shootings are par for the course and if you own anything, prepare for it to be stolen within a day and sold off for drugs. The prince will feel at home in Jaywick as there are loads of prostitutes who will do anything for a piece of crack rock.

2) Grimsby — No other words can describe this place other than the word ‘grim’. It is very far from the Pizza Express in Woking. Prince Andrew will no doubt feel at home here as he will be required to wear a Burberry baseball cap and socks tucked into shellsuit bottoms, it’s either that or getting the living shit kicked out of you. The McDonald’s in Grimsby Town Centre is the key focus for the knuckle dragging locals who inhabit the area by day, the chavs committing petty crimes and publicly partaking in drugs sometimes take their Burberry shirts off and dunk in the River Freshney. By night, it is pretty much the same as the coked up chavs and chavettes breed publicly in the car parks and alley ways of Freshney Place adding a certain Attenborough feel to everything.

3) London — The capital city of Blighty used to be a nice place to live once but since the cockroach, Sadiq Khan mayor took office London’s decline has accelerated rapidly. For a start, no one speaks English any more, and crime is so rife that the Metropolitan Police have completely given up, preferring to spend their days in offices filling in useless pieces of paper that no one will ever read. If it’s not the Albanian gangsters or the Jamaican gangs who get you, it will be the hordes of Romanian gypsies who will strip every valuable from your person within seconds. Because the EU ULEZ nightmare cash-grab foisted on poor Londoners, only the very rich can now drive a petrol car or van around the city. This way, the roads are still blocked up and polluted, and public transport is completely overloaded with millions more poor souls forced to use the crumbling, expensive system. Everything in London is so expensive that the very act of living is considered a pure death. It is better to end the misery by jumping from atop one of the concrete monstrosities built by insane leftist architects in the 1970s dotted around the human prison called London. Splat! There goes another poor bastard! He took the easy way out of the city of hell.

4) Luton — This Bedfordshire city is a place that could aid in assisted dying, for to grace its awful streets and walk along the Town Centre is for some considered as one of the ring’s of hell itself. Deprivation, misery, filth and obscene levels of poverty blight this place.

5) Bradford — You may have the beautiful rolling hills of Yorkshire, and the quaint little towns and villages dotting the landscape, and then you get Bradford, a shithole so vile that many who live in this place of despair and misery happily jump off the foreboding Victorian railway bridges to escape. Amongst the nasty takeaways and Poundshops a pervasive element of drug gangs hangs over the pungent atmosphere like an unholy fart deposited from the puckered anus of Satan himself. You can buy anything in Bradford, sold by some Eastern European thug, or a junkie desperate for their next fix, maybe a bag full of cheddar cheese stolen from the supermarket, or an Xbox pilfered from some little boy’s room. Such is the depravity of this town that if there is a vision of hell itself — Bradford is it.

Comrade Starmer Gives Speech Regarding Labour Soviet 5-Year-Plan

Comrades, men of the Red Army and Red Navy, commanders and political instructors, working men and working women, collective farmers – men and women, workers in the intellectual professions, brothers and sisters in the rear of our enemy who have temporarily fallen under the yoke of the Conservative capitalist brigands, and our valiant men and women guerillas who are destroying the rear of the Tory interlopers! I am your supreme leader — Comrade Starmer!

I greet you on behalf of the coming Soviet Labour government and our Bolshevik Labour Party and congratulate you on the occasion of the twenty-seventh anniversary of the Great Socialist Revolution by former Comrade Blair.

Class struggle

Comrades, it is in strenuous circumstances that we are today celebrating the twenty-seventh anniversary of the Tony Blair Revolution. The perfidious attack of the Tory brigands and the years of TORY mismanagement which has been forced upon us have placed our country in jeopardy. We have temporarily lost a number of regions, the enemy has appeared at the gates of Scunthorpe and Manchester. The Tory scum reckoned that after the very first blow our Soviet Labour Party would be dispersed, and our commissars would be forced to their knees.

I may be wearing the biggest pair of flip-flops known to man, but I, Comrade Starmer, am the only one who can steer Soviet Britain back into the EU. It will be the 2024 elections at the 325th Central Committee that will ensure we capitulate and bring forth full communism to Britain once and for all and the woke nightmare continues in earnest with full integration with the Soviet EU mother-bloc.

SovietTomorrow, the position of our country will be far better off than it was fifteen years ago under the enemy. We will introduce a Soviet 5-year-plan to redistribute all wealth from the greedy capitalists to the workers and welfare state. There will be no Public or Private schools left as we take away their tax breaks, we will introduce a Garden-Tax, a Mansion-Tax, and more taxes for the rich than they have ever encountered.

We will build rows upon rows of concrete blocks to house the population rise, as we allow every Tom Dick and Harry to come to Britain, much like Comrade Blair and Sunak did.

Collectivisation

Our new Soviet economy will be centred around nationalisation and redistribution of wealth. Under this plan, all major industries and corporations will be nationalised, and the wealth will be redistributed among the working class. This will ensure that the profits of the country are shared equally among its citizens. You will thank me comrades as you chomp into a soggy British Rail sandwich once again.

keir starmer beergate beer comrade starmer
Labour leader Comrade Starmer and his crew DID NOT have a little party during the Covid Lockdown

Our Soviet Net Zero pledge will mean more poverty for every citizen, as I firmly believe that everyone under socialism and communism should live in misery and collective poverty. No, you will not drive your diesel Lada, but instead will take the bus or train in smelly cramped carriages. No, you will not fly abroad, because jet flight will only be permitted for party leaders and members.

Comrades, you will enjoy listening to my awful nasal voice for the next 5–10 years and if you don’t enjoy listening to it — tough titties. I will be your overbearing comrade, droning on and on and on until you make the decision to have a free lobotomy on the NHS.

Comrades, men of the Red Army and Red Navy, commanders and political instructors, men and women guerillas, the whole world is looking towards you as a force capable of destroying the British economy further by borrowing trillions more to add to the trillions of debt Britain already has accrued. I cannot wait to ruin your fucking lives, to take every penny from the rich, and to punish every worker with insane levels of taxation and red tape.

Here is to the next ten years of Soviet Labour…

Stephen Hawking Discovered Entire New Universe on Epstein Island

Unfortunately, many of the new discoveries were not in any of the astrophysics books penned by Stephen Hawking, but appear in court documents released by US Judge Loretta Preska. The unsealed documents name more than 170 people who were either associates, friends or paid concubines of financier Epstein, who had a penchant for young women.

Black holes

“Forget about the magnetosphere or microquasars or even Lagrange points, Hawking was introduced to an entirely different universe of full body massages, triplet three girl fellatios and full-blown groaning orgies by Epstein and his associates. By the end of it, Hawking radiation was just a distant memory,” an attendee at one of the soirées revealed.

Testing the theory of gravity

One can only imagine the clunky wheelchair of Stephen Hawking moving around franticly or running over Prince Andrew’s foot as the proceedings went on.

“Just a little more to the left,” Hawking’s robotic voice says as a blonde head is eagerly bobbing up and down. It’s no big deal that professor Hawking enjoyed the joys of flesh with young women, as any man would.

Beware of the pool though, if an out of control wheelchair suddenly propels itself over the diving board and into the drink it would be a sullen end to the festivities.

Biden to be Mummified and Displayed in Delaware Museum

Biden to be Mummified and Displayed in Delaware Museum

Joe Biden, the 46th President of the United States, has made headlines once again, but this time it’s not for his non-existent political achievements.

Formaldehyde

In a shocking turn of events, it has been reported that Biden’s body will be mummified and preserved with formaldehyde while still supposedly alive, and then displayed in a museum in his home state of Delaware.

The news of Biden’s mummification has caused quite a stir among the public, with many questioning the reasoning behind such a decision.

Some have even gone as far as to call it a morbid and disrespectful act towards the popular President. However, others argue that it is a way to honour and remember Biden’s legacy for generations to come.

Biden is a hugely popular president

So, how did this idea of mummifying and displaying Biden’s body come about? According to sources close to the President, it was his own wish to be preserved in this manner.

Biden has always been fascinated by ancient Egyptian culture and the process of mummification. He even joked about wanting to be mummified during his time as Vice President. It seems that this was not just a passing comment, but a serious desire of his.

The Biden Delaware Museum of Mummification

Museum director, Tom Coronary, revealed to news media on Thursday about the exciting new project: “Contrary to belief, there will not be much difference in President Biden’s character or his speech delivery before or after the mummification process. He is so demented that he will not even notice when we conduct the mummification process.”

The process of mummification involves removing all internal organs, drying out the body, and then wrapping it in linen bandages. This is then followed by the application of formaldehyde, a chemical used to preserve bodies. The end result is a well-preserved body that can last for thousands of years. It is a practice that has been used by ancient civilizations to honour their leaders and preserve their memory.

But why display Biden’s mummified body in a museum? The answer lies in his home state of Delaware. Biden has always been proud of his roots and has often spoken about his love for the state. It is only fitting that his final resting place be in Delaware, where he will be remembered and celebrated by the people he served.

The museum in Delaware that will house Biden’s mummified body is currently under construction. It will be a state-of-the-art facility that will showcase the life and achievements of the President. Visitors will be able to see Biden’s mummified body on display, along with artefacts and memorabilia from his time in office, including his son’s crack pipe collection, bags of money and his daughter Ashley’s diary. It will be a place for people to pay their respects and learn about the man who made history as the worst President to be elected.

While some may find the idea of mummifying and displaying a President’s body to be strange, it is not without precedent.

Following his Communist Heroes

In fact, several other world leaders have been mummified and put on display, including Vladimir Lenin and Mao Zedong. It is a way to immortalise their legacy and ensure that they are never forgotten.

Whether you agree with this decision or not, one thing is for sure, it will be a unique and unforgettable tribute to a man who has dedicated his life to serving his country.

FAQs:

Q: Is mummification legal in the United States?
A: Yes, mummification is legal in the United States, as long as it is done with the consent of the individual or their family.

Q: Will Biden’s mummified body be on permanent display?
A: Yes, it is reported that Biden’s mummified body will be on permanent display in the museum in Delaware.

Q: Will there be any protests against this decision?
A: It is possible that there may be some protests against the mummification and display of Biden’s body, but it is ultimately his wish and decision.

Q: When will the museum in Delaware open?
A: The museum is currently under construction and there is no official opening date yet.

Q: Will there be any restrictions on viewing Biden’s mummified body?
A: It is likely that there will be some restrictions in place, such as limited viewing times and security measures, to ensure the preservation of the body.

Woke Harvard President Resigns After Anti-Semitism and Plagiarism

An anti-Semitic racist woke Harvard President was forced to resign because of her racist views and huge amounts of plagiarism for her doctoral thesis. The woman was installed into her $900k/year position simply because of the colour of her skin and her woke attitude, and not for any academic value. In America, this sort of employment is very popular, especially in universities, and is called ‘affirmative action’. Regardless of ability to do a job or qualifications, these ineffectual people are given positions within institutions and companies of high power and salary.

“Wear a silly pair of glasses, be a certain colour and female with a fucked up hairdo whilst spouting the same old tired woke victim rhetoric, and you’re the new Harvard president,” a Harvard recruiter revealed.

Firing these useless people is a hard endeavour as they immediately bring out the old predictable card and immediately run to the woke media outlets who lap that victim shit up with ardour. Conversely, if these fuckers are forced to resign, they invariably leave with a pitiful resignation letter distributed to the woke press. No one wins.

Cry into your fucking plagiarised doctoral thesis, you pathetic useless parasite, there is nothing more hated than your type of attitude.

Exploring Iconic Literary Characters

Literary characters have the power to captivate readers and leave a lasting impact on society. They embody traits, values, and experiences that resonate with readers across generations. Let’s delve into the influence and timelessness of classic literary characters.

The Impact of Literary Characters on Society

detective-7923066_1280Characters like Sherlock Holmes, Hamlet, Jane Eyre, and Jay Gatsby have become cultural icons, often embodying larger social themes. They have the ability to challenge societal norms, inspire change, and provide readers with a sense of escapism. These characters serve as a reflection of human nature, allowing readers to connect with their emotions, struggles, and aspirations.

For example, Sherlock Holmes, the brilliant detective created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, has had a profound impact on the genre of mystery and crime fiction. With his sharp intellect, keen observation skills, and deductive reasoning, Holmes has become the archetype of the detective figure. His influence can be seen in countless detective stories, films, and television series that have followed in his footsteps.

Similarly, Hamlet, the tragic hero of William Shakespeare’s play, has left an indelible mark on literature and theater. Hamlet’s internal struggle, his contemplation of life’s meaning, and his famous soliloquies have made him a symbol of existential angst. His character has been analyzed and interpreted by scholars and actors for centuries, exploring themes of revenge, madness, and the complexity of human nature.

Jane Eyre, the protagonist of Charlotte Brontë’s novel, is a character who defied societal expectations for women in the Victorian era. With her strong-willed nature, intelligence, and desire for independence, Jane Eyre challenged the traditional role of women as passive and submissive. Her story continues to inspire readers, particularly women, to pursue their own ambitions and assert their individuality.

Lastly, Jay Gatsby, the enigmatic millionaire from F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel, “The Great Gatsby,” represents the American Dream and the pursuit of wealth and social status. Gatsby’s tragic story serves as a cautionary tale about the emptiness of materialism and the illusion of the American Dream. His character resonates with readers, reminding them of the dangers of unchecked ambition and the importance of genuine human connections.

The Timelessness of Classic Literary Characters

Classic literary characters stand the test of time, transcending the era in which they were created. Characters like Romeo and Juliet, Elizabeth Bennet, and Captain Ahab continue to resonate with readers today, reaffirming the power of storytelling. These characters remain relevant because of the universal themes they explore, such as love, ambition, and the human condition.

Romeo and Juliet, the star-crossed lovers from William Shakespeare’s tragedy, have become synonymous with passionate and forbidden love. Their story of young love torn apart by feuding families has been adapted into numerous plays, films, and even modern retellings. The themes of love, fate, and the destructive power of hatred continue to captivate audiences, reminding them of the enduring power of love and the consequences of unchecked prejudice.

Elizabeth Bennet, the spirited heroine of Jane Austen’s novel, “Pride and Prejudice,” challenges societal expectations of women in the early 19th century. With her wit, intelligence, and refusal to conform to societal norms, Elizabeth Bennet has become an iconic character in literature. Her journey of self-discovery and her refusal to settle for a loveless marriage continue to inspire readers, particularly women, to prioritize their own happiness and independence.

Captain Ahab, the obsessed captain in Herman Melville’s novel, “Moby-Dick,” represents the destructive power of obsession and the human desire for revenge. Ahab’s relentless pursuit of the white whale, Moby Dick, serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of unchecked ambition and the consequences of harboring grudges. His character continues to resonate with readers, reminding them of the importance of balance and the perils of allowing one’s obsessions to consume them.

Classic literary characters have a profound impact on society and stand the test of time due to their ability to embody larger social themes and explore universal human experiences. Whether they challenge societal norms, inspire change, or provide readers with a sense of escapism, these characters continue to captivate readers across generations, reminding us of the power of storytelling and the enduring relevance of literature.

Epstein List: Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew Suddenly Get the Sweats

Things are getting rather sweaty for the likes of serial visitors to Epstein Island, a place where nothing happened according to Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew. It’s just not those two names on the Epstein list, but people like Michael Jackson and David Copperfield have recently been revealed by a US court.

Prince Andrew apparently does not have the ability to sweat, but as further allegations are revealed, he may start sweating like a priest at a choir boys convention.

As for Bill Clinton, this guy is as cool as a cucumber and will not be bothered by any allegations revealed about his time on Epstein Island, burying his cucumber deep inside the coterie of lithe young ladies on the island was just something an ex-president does. Besides, what’s a man to do when the old bag back home is a rug muncher?

Michael Jackson apparently visited the island as well, but here is the mystery. Did Epstein ship in a bunch of underage boys for his visit?

Whatever happens in the near future is just pure entertainment.
