The new war crime – the Zionists bombed Saint Porphyrius church in Gaza

Yossi Schwartz, ISL the section of the RCIT in Israel/Occupied Palestine, 20.10.2023

The U.S imperialism at the age of weakness is returning to gunboat diplomacy when in the 19-century dealing with weak nations were forced to grant concessions by the threat of war ships. These days the American imperialists, helping Israel to commit a genocide, sent war ships to threaten any Arab country or Iran from helping the Palestinians.

On Friday morning. Biden the Liar who suffers from advance senility told the American people that the US’s response to Hamas’s war with Israel is the same response to the war of the Ukraine-Russia war. Hamas is like Russia and Israel is like the Ukraine. Speaking as a self-appointed sheriff he said: “American leadership is what holds the world together. American alliances are what keep us safe. American values are what make us a partner that other nations want to work with. To put all that at risk if we walk away from Ukraine, if we turn our backs on Israel, is just not worth it,” stressed the president” [1]

While 100 trucks are waiting in Rafah to deliver humanitarian aid Israel and Biden the Patron will allow only 20 trucks to deliver aid.

The same time of the speech of this partner to the war crime, an Israeli air attack has killed and injured a “large number” of displaced people sheltering at a church compound in Gaza, according to the besieged Palestinian enclave’s interior ministry. The strike left a “large number of martyrs and injured” at the compound of the Greek Orthodox Saint Porphyrius Church in Gaza City, the ministry said on Thursday night. [2]

Now we can expect the speaker of the Zionist army saying that the church collapsed because of the sound of Hamas’ rackets and brings CIA experts chosen by Biden that will say that the church was old and would collapse in any case, and in any case, Israel is not to be blamed by it and anyone who will blame the Israeli army is an Anti-Semitic criminal. Furthermore, only two Palestinians were slightly injured.

“As a matter of fact, the Israel Defense Forces on Friday acknowledged that “a wall of a church in the area was damaged,” as a result of the IDF strike”.”Earlier today, IDF fighter jets struck the command-and-control center belonging to a Hamas terrorist involved in the launching of rockets and mortars toward Israel,” IDF told CNN in a statement” [3]

“The head of the Greek Orthodox Church in Jerusalem condemned the overnight attack on Gaza’s oldest church, which falls under the Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem.The airstrike, which damaged part of the St. Porphyrius Greek Orthodox Church in Gaza City, was “a new massacre” and “an attack on Christian heritage,” according to Archbishop Atallah Hanna, the Greek Orthodox Archbishop of Sebastia in Jerusalem.

“We urgently appeal to His Holiness the Pope and the heads of churches worldwide to raise their voices and not be satisfied with prayers alone,” Hanna added in a written statement.” [4]

 This war crime is exactly the same method aimed at genocide that was used in the air attack on the hospital al Ahli. The aim of Israel is to wipe out Gaza, commit genocide and ethnically cleansing the people of Gaza. A continuation of the Nakba of 1947-48.

The USA and Israel have common values. What the white European settlers’ colonists did to the Indians in North America Israel is trying to do to the Palestinians for the second time.

The defeat of Israel will be a defeat for Western imperialism that stands behind Israel.

The Zionist apartheid state must be destroyed and replaced by socialist Palestinian state from the river to the sea! A state to which the Palestinian refugees will return and the Jews will have civil, cultural, religious rights, but not the right to create another monstrous state.

Down with the murdering Zionist apartheid state!

For the Palestinian to live, the Israeli state must be defeated!

For a red free Palestine from the river to the sea!
