Imagine: sharp New York politicians are bragging about their role in the tunnel scam that Israel is putting forward to try and distract the world from a massacre. A New York delegation to Israel toured the tunnels today, in “solidarity” with Israelis. The picture above was taken at a tunnel opening near the Gaza border, they say.
That’s Governor Andrew Cuomo above, in the white shirt; he tweeted the photo. On the left in the blazer is Mort Zuckerman, publisher of the Daily News. Sheldon Silver, Jeffrey Klein, and Dean Skelos, millstones of the NY legislature, flank the gov.
Oh and wearing a suit, that’s Shimon Peres, the retired Israeli president, suckering the US worthies in the sand.
These are New Yorkers who wouldn’t fall for three-card monte on 14th Street, grinning as they’re being manipulated for international propaganda. Here’s a photo of them seeing a tunnel dismantled. Here they are with chief army spokesperson Lt. Col. Peter Lerner.
Newsday quotes Cuomo at the tunnels on “the enemy”:
“Truly amazing, how extensive and how sophisticated a network they built virtually undetected,” Cuomo said after emerging. “You see those tunnels and you are reminded of how aggressive and tenacious the enemy is. There are miles and miles of tunnels. These are concrete reinforced . . . The tunnels are an entirely new development and a frightening one.”
Here are two central truths:
–Despite the propaganda, not one single Israeli civilian, kindergartner or otherwise, was attacked by Hamas fighters emerging from tunnels, even as 400 Palestinian children have been slaughtered by Israeli forces, and hundreds of women and other civilians.
–The tunnel openings are nowhere near where Israeli civilians live.
Below is a photograph of Palestinian civilians, boys on the beach, who were killed by Israel on July 16, along with nearly 2000 others in the recent onslaught. Cuomo and Zuckerman did not even reach out to Palestinians on the whirlwind trip.
I am nauseated & revulsed @- this pornography.
I hope that this is spread far and wide so that many more can join me.
Exactly how many of these tunnels are actually concrete lined? Surely a resident Hasbarrister can tell us. ’cause if there are many concrete lined tunnels there’d be a flood of photos …. but there isn’t
They even had termed them “terror tunnels” when no one came out of tunnel and has killed any civilian but israel’s, drones, f-16s, tanks have killed innocent civilians yet these are “peace doves”.
The way every Government in west repeats what israeli government says is just like sheep following the first sheep in the row .
Well, mark Cuomo down in the pro-slaughter column.
Next.
It seems these shameless Americans have no sense of decency, and have flaunted their devotion for Israel to the world, while ignoring the 2000 civilians who were brutally killed by a lying war criminal. No wonder we are hated, it is because of these disgusting show of love for a brutal occupier, who just slaughtered unarmed civilians.
Do they have no access to the truth, or are they deliberately ignoring it, we will never know. Here is an interesting article by a former Israeli soldier, who says Israel claim of avoiding civilian casualties can be disbelieved, and that they can avoid the civilian casualties, showing once again, they are nation of damned liars.
