The West Is a Profoundly Degenerate and Morally Bankrupt Enterprise

And one which is beyond redemption.

Gaza, Palestine.

A Christian hospital was bombed.

A place already bursting at the seams with hundreds of injured people was targeted by the Israeli Defense Force and blown up, late last night.

It is estimated that well over 800 people are dead.

Among the dead, were great numbers of babies, mothers and civilians, who had nothing to do with Hamas.

So what has this got to do with the west?

Everything.

There was considerable sympathy for Israel when Hamas broke the lines and murdered hundreds of Israeli citizens who were having a good time at their party.

And with the sympathy came a carte blanche from the United States and the United Kingdom for Israel to seek retribution; even if it meant the deaths of thousands of babies.

But It is pertinent to point out that this isn’t a one-off: we have been here before.

In the immediate aftermath of 9/11, we had the invasion of Afghanistan with the sacking of the Taliban, which was nothing but a precursor for what was to come — the invasion of Iraq.
