Blinken failed, they were saying in European capitals, to persuade the Israelis to accept a three-day ceasefire. I do not think that the head of American diplomacy would be so naive as to expect a positive response to such a request. Neither, of course, did President Biden, who also put it directly to Netanyahu. However, it is useful to cultivate this image in the international public opinion, because, in the age of mass democracy, globalized economy and social media, the political management of war is as serious as the management in the field.
Certainly do the Americans realize that if Israel stops at this critical point in the battle in Gaza, even for three days, it loses the war and all the bloodshed it caused was for no reason. Since Hamas’s strategic goal is to destroy the hope of peace for the next generation, Israel rightly sets its own strategic goal above that and seeks to eliminate Hamas. Unless the status quo in Gaza is radically changed, no peace plan has any hope. If Hamas survives, there is no hope for American policy in the region in general. Quite simply, it is not in the Americans’ interest to defeat Israel. That is why in practice they support Israel discreetly. The presence of the fleet e.g. is in the area to avoid an extension of the war, but also covers Israel’s rear from Iran so that its army can finish the job in Gaza. Essentially, the American position on the inevitable occupation of Gaza, which will follow if the purpose of the military operation is achieved, was also supportive. Not a permanent presence, say the Americans, only temporary. I see…
I don’t blame the Americans for their attitude, everything else! In this war, not only the future of Israel is at stake, but also the security of Western countries. If at the end of the game we allow the most ruthless and most inhumane, the one who can sacrifice thousands of civilian lives, to impose his power, then let us now surrender to what awaits us. If wars are won by the biggest bastards, then those who fought Nazism in World War II were killed in vain and the guy with the weird mustache, the umbrella and the ridiculous hat is vindicated. (Not Charlie Chaplin. I mean Neville Chamberlain…)
DONE EXCELLENT
I can not to understand – and I’m not kidding – why some criticize Ms. Zoe Konstantopoulou for her behavior on Sunday at the Thessaloniki Festival. He did not want to sit next to Mrs. Efi Ahtsioglou and asked for another seat. So where is the evil and I don’t see it? If he dislikes her so much, he is not only justified in asking for it (provided, of course, he raised the relevant request politely and discreetly), but he also did Mrs. Ahtsioglou a favor. In the cinema, we are next to each other. Is it nice to spend two hours with someone you can’t stand? Do you know that for two hours your breaths are confused? That every time he laughs invisible drops of saliva reach you? No! I don’t think anyone goes to the cinema to play with their nerves. Especially if he is nervous, like Ms. Konstantopoulou. Therefore, better for everyone. Let alone the other one, which I am now thinking about: What would happen if Mrs. Ahtsioglou, due to the well-known difficulties her party is going through, took advantage of the opportunity and attacked the president for the “Freedom Voyage”? So, I say it again, he did very well and changed his position. Love, finally! No hearts or smiles…
