Here is a simple, stone cold fact. Berikut adalah batu, sederhana fakta dingin. You cannot read or

hear the truth about what is happening in Gaza from any corporate media in the United States.

Anda tidak dapat membaca atau mendengar kebenaran tentang apa yang terjadi di Gaza dari

media apapun perusahaan di Amerika Serikat. The only thing you will find there are

regurgitations of Israeli spin, which are themselves only regurgitations of the kind of spin that

American militarists have put on their own depredations -- for centuries now. Satu-satunya hal

Anda akan menemukan ada regurgitations spin Israel, yang sendiri hanya regurgitations dari

jenis spin yang militeris Amerika telah mengenakan depredations mereka sendiri - selama

berabad-abad sekarang.

Up and down the American media and political establishments, you will find nothing but

bleatings about Israel being "forced" to launch its vicious blunderbuss attacks against heavily

populated Gaza because of the "recent spate of Hamas bombings" since the end of a six-month

ceasefire. Atas dan ke bawah media Amerika dan lembaga politik, Anda akan menemukan apa-

apa selain bleatings tentang Israel yang "dipaksa" untuk memulai blunderbuss serangan ganas

terhadap penduduk Gaza berat karena "banjir baru-baru ini bom Hamas" sejak akhir bulan enam

gencatan senjata.

This is of course a damnable and deliberate lie. Hal ini tentu saja dan sengaja berbohong

terkutuk. Papers in Israel -- in Israel , but not the United States -- are reporting the truth: the

murderous assault on Gaza was planned not only before the six-month ceasefire ended -- it was

planned before the cease-fire even took effect . Makalah di Israel - di Israel, tapi bukan Amerika

Serikat - melaporkan kebenaran: serangan pembunuhan di Gaza itu direncanakan tidak hanya

sebelum gencatan senjata enam bulan yang berakhir pada - itu direncanakan sebelum gencatan

senjata bahkan mulai berlaku. Indeed, the cease-fire was part of the military plan to decimate

the civilian areas of Gaza; it was a hoax, a scam, a deliberate feint to buy time for military

preparations -- precisely the same strategy followed by the Bush Regime (and its bipartisan

Establishment supporters) in "going to the UN" to seek a "peaceful solution" to the "Iraqi crisis"

-- when the invasion was already in the works. Memang, gencatan senjata merupakan bagian

dari rencana militer untuk membinasakan daerah sipil di Gaza, itu adalah tipuan, scam, tipuan

yang disengaja untuk membeli waktu untuk persiapan militer - persis strategi yang sama diikuti

oleh rezim Bush (dan Pendirian pendukung bipartisan nya) di "pergi ke PBB" untuk mencari

"solusi damai" dengan "krisis Irak" - ketika invasi sudah dalam karya.

Haaretz reports on the Israel's deceit in the latest outrage, in the aptly titled piece,

"Disinformation, secrecy and lies: How the Gaza offensive came about": Laporan Haaretz Israel

penipuan yang dalam kemarahan terbaru, dalam bagian berjudul tepat, "disinformasi,

kerahasiaan dan kebohongan: Bagaimana serangan Gaza muncul":

Long-term preparation, careful gathering of information, secret discussions, operational

deception and the misleading of the public - all these stood behind the Israel Defense Forces

"Cast Lead" operation against Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip, which began Saturday morning.

Persiapan jangka panjang, hati-hati mengumpulkan informasi, diskusi rahasia, penipuan

operasional dan menyesatkan masyarakat - semua ini berdiri di belakang Angkatan Pertahanan

Israel "Cast Lead" operasi terhadap sasaran Hamas di Jalur Gaza, yang dimulai Sabtu pagi. he

disinformation effort, according to defense officials, took Hamas by surprise and served to

significantly increase the number of its casualties in the strike. dia usaha disinformasi, menurut

para pejabat pertahanan, Hamas mengambil terkejut dan berfungsi untuk meningkatkan secarasignifikan jumlah korban dalam pemogokan.

Sources in the defense establishment said Defense Minister Ehud Barak instructed the Israel

Defense Forces to prepare for the operation over six months ago, even as Israel was beginning to

negotiate a ceasefire agreement with Hamas. Sumber dalam pembentukan pertahanan

mengatakan Menteri Pertahanan Ehud Barak memerintahkan Pasukan Pertahanan Israel untuk

mempersiapkan operasi lebih dari enam bulan yang lalu, bahkan ketika Israel mulai melakukan

negosiasi perjanjian gencatan senjata dengan Hamas. According to the sources, Barak

maintained that although the lull would allow Hamas to prepare for a showdown with Israel, the

Israeli army needed time to prepare, as well.. Menurut sumber, Barak menyatakan bahwa

meskipun meninabobokan akan mengizinkan Hamas untuk mempersiapkan showdown dengan

Israel, tentara Israel perlu waktu untuk mempersiapkan, serta ..

The story also notes that the recent racheting of tension was sparked, deliberately, by a heavy-

handed Israeli incursion into Gaza: Cerita ini juga mencatat bahwa racheting baru-baru ini

ketegangan dipicu, sengaja, oleh menyerahkan Israel serangan-berat ke Gaza:

The plan of action that was implemented in Operation Cast Lead remained only a blueprint until

a month ago, when tensions soared after the IDF carried out an incursion into Gaza during the

ceasefire to take out a tunnel which the army said was intended to facilitate an attack by

Palestinian militants on IDF troops.... Rencana aksi yang dilaksanakan dalam Operasi Cast Lead

tetap hanya cetak biru sampai sebulan yang lalu, ketika ketegangan meningkat setelah IDF

dilakukan sebuah serangan ke Gaza selama gencatan senjata untuk mengambil sebuah

terowongan yang militer mengatakan itu dimaksudkan untuk memfasilitasi serangan oleh militan

Palestina terhadap tentara IDF ....

While Barak was working out the final details with the officers responsible for the operation,

Livni went to Cairo to inform Egypt's president, Hosni Mubarak, that Israel had decided to strike

at Hamas. Sementara Barak sedang bekerja di luar rincian akhir dengan petugas yang

bertanggung jawab untuk operasi, Livni pergi ke Kairo untuk menginformasikan presiden Mesir,

Hosni Mubarak, bahwa Israel telah memutuskan untuk menyerang Hamas. In parallel, Israel

continued to send out disinformation in announcing it would open the crossings to the Gaza Strip

and that Olmert would decide whether to launch the strike following three more deliberations onSunday - one day after the actual order to launch the operation was issued. Secara paralel, Israel

terus mengirimkan disinformasi dalam mengumumkan akan membuka penyeberangan ke Jalur

Gaza dan bahwa Olmert akan memutuskan apakah akan meluncurkan serangan berikut tiga

pembahasan lebih pada hari Minggu - satu hari setelah perintah yang sebenarnya untuk memulai

operasi dikeluarkan.

"Hamas evacuated all its headquarter personnel after the cabinet meeting on Wednesday," one

defense official said, "but the organization sent its people back in when they heard that

everything was put on hold until Sunday." "Hamas dievakuasi semua personil kantor pusat

setelah pertemuan kabinet pada hari Rabu," kata pejabat pertahanan satu, "tapi organisasi

mengirim orang kembali pada saat mereka mendengar segala sesuatu yang ditunda sampai hari

Minggu."

I'm going to do everything in my power to stop that. And I would expect Palestinians to do the

same thing"? Tidak dapat mentalitas yang sama persis akan dikerahkan untuk membenarkan

Hamas semuanya telah dilakukan dan lakukan, yaitu: "jika kekuatan asing secara brutal

menduduki negara saya selama empat dekade - atau memblokade negara saya dan menyangkal

kebutuhan medis anak saya dan gizi dan kemampuan bahkan untuk keluar - aku akan melakukan

segala daya saya untuk berhenti itu ". Dan saya harapkan Palestina untuk melakukan hal yang

sama? But the last thing that our political class ever extends is reciprocal, two-sided analysis to

this dispute. Namun hal terakhir yang kelas politik kita pernah meluas adalah timbal balik, sisi

analisis dua sampai sengketa ini.

What is the ultimate context of this carnage? Apakah konteks akhir dari pembantaian ini? The

fact that the Arab inhabitants of Palestine had their land taken away from them by force -- not insome ancient, historic era, but within the lifetime of many thousands of Palestinians still living.

Fakta bahwa penduduk Arab Palestina memiliki tanah mereka diambil dari mereka dengan

kekerasan - bukan dalam beberapa bersejarah, zaman kuno, tetapi dalam masa hidup ribuan

orang Palestina masih hidup. I hold no brief for Hamas; like the Angry Arab , whose coverage of

the conflict has been relentless and penetrating, I don't care for any party based on religious

extremism. Aku terus tidak singkat untuk Hamas, seperti Arab Marah , yang cakupan konflik

telah tanpa henti dan tajam, aku tidak peduli untuk setiap pihak berdasarkan ekstrimisme agama.

But as Greenwald notes, every action taken by Hamas and other Palestinian resistance groups

could be characterized as "retaliation" for the theft of their land, not to mention the war crime of

collective punishment and genocidal blockades visited upon the Occupied Territories for years.

Tapi sebagai catatan Greenwald, setiap tindakan yang diambil oleh Hamas dan kelompok-

kelompok perlawanan Palestina dapat dicirikan sebagai "pembalasan" untuk pencurian tanah

mereka, belum lagi kejahatan perang dan blokade hukuman kolektif genosida mengunjungi atas

Wilayah Pendudukan selama bertahun-tahun.

But there is not a single peep of this perspective from America's ruling class and its media

courtiers. Tetapi tidak ada mengintip tunggal dari perspektif dari kelas penguasa's Amerika dan

perusahaan media istana. Of course, it is a bit much to expect a nation which itself was built on

land theft, repression and slaughter to see anything wrong or "disproportionate" in Israel's

treatment of the Palestinians. Tentu saja, itu adalah sedikit banyak untuk mengharapkan bangsa

yang sendiri dibangun di atas pencurian tanah, represi dan pembantaian untuk melihat sesuatu

yang salah atau "tidak seimbang" dalam's perlakuan Israel Palestina. What else are you supposed

to do when those dang heathen savages come around with their war parties and tomahawks,

trying to get back the land that God Almighty has granted to good white folk? Apa lagi yang

seharusnya Anda lakukan ketika orang-orang liar kafir dang datang sekitar dengan pihak perang

mereka dan tomahawks, mencoba untuk mendapatkan kembali tanah yang Allah SWT telah

diberikan kepada rakyat putih yang baik?

Meanwhile, here's what Israel's "Manifest Destiny" looks like on the ground in Gaza. From the

Maan News Agency ( via the Angry Arab, as was the photo above ): Sementara itu, inilah yang

Israel "Manifest Destiny" tampak seperti di tanah di Gaza . Dari Maan News Agency (melalui

Arab Marah, seperti foto di atas):

Death shrouds the hallways of Gaza City's Ash-Shifa medical compound Saturday, its smell

creeping in from all corners. Kematian kafan lorong-lorong Shifa medis senyawa City Ash-Gaza

Sabtu, baunya menjalar dari segala penjuru. mputated bodies are strewn throughout hallways

because morgues in the city can no longer accommodate the dead. badan mputated strewn

seluruh lorong-lorong karena morgues di kota tidak bisa lagi menampung orang mati. In one

corner a man stands with his seven year old son in a cardboard box because the hospital ran out

of sheets to cover the dead with. Di salah satu sudut seorang laki-laki berdiri dengan anaknyatujuh tahun dalam kotak kardus karena rumah sakit kehabisan lembar untuk menutupi mati

dengan. This is how he will carry him home and bury him. Ini adalah bagaimana ia akan

membawa pulang dan menguburkan dia. Another man stands dazed, in shock after watching his

son Mohammed killed during his graduation ceremony at the de facto police headquarters.

Seorang pria lain berdiri bingung, shock setelah melihat anaknya Mohammed terbunuh dalam

upacara wisuda di markas polisi de facto. The father of one of Mohammed's classmates stood

next to his son as he was decapitated. Ayah dari salah satu teman sekelas Mohammed's berdiri di

samping anaknya karena ia dipenggal. The man is still screaming. Orang itu masih menjerit-jerit.

In the packed hospital waiting room a mother sits silently staring into the distance; her son was

pronounced dead shortly after she brought him in... Di rumah sakit dikemas ruang tunggu

seorang ibu duduk diam-diam menatap ke kejauhan; anaknya dinyatakan meninggal tak lama

setelah ia membawa dia masuk .. Forty-year-old mother Nawal Al-Lad'a did not find the bodies

of her two sons in the medical compound, so she left to look amid the rubble. Empat puluh tahun

ibu Nawal Al-Lad'a tidak menemukan mayat dua anaknya di kompleks medis, jadi dia kiri untuk

melihat di tengah reruntuhan.

Husam Farajallah, a university student, was at the hospital collecting the body of his relative.

Husam Farajallah, seorang mahasiswa, berada di rumah sakit mengumpulkan tubuh relatif nya.

He called what happened in Gaza a "black day" in the lives of all Palestinians, and wondered

how the world could watch and do nothing. Ia menyebut apa yang terjadi di Gaza "hari hitam"

dalam kehidupan semua orang Palestina, dan bertanya-tanya bagaimana dunia bisa melihat dan

melakukan apa-apa.

Medics in Gaza confirmed that the majority of those killed in the day's attacks were civilians,

including men, women and children. Tenaga medis di Gaza menegaskan bahwa sebagian besar

dari mereka tewas dalam serangan hari adalah warga sipil, termasuk laki-laki, perempuan dan

anak. Most were cut to pieces, making the job of doctors and medics difficult, and the task of

giving bodies back to families painful and gruesome. Sebagian besar dipotong-potong, membuat

pekerjaan dokter dan petugas medis sulit, dan tugas memberikan tubuh kembali ke keluarga

menyakitkan dan mengerikan. The medics working in the field continue to dig up bodies from

the densely populated urban areas of Gaza City. Para petugas bekerja di lapangan terus menggali

mayat dari daerah perkotaan yang padat penduduk Kota Gaza.

The scenes remind many Palestinians of the images that came out of the Sabra and Shatila

massacres from Beirut in 1982, when thousands of Palestinians were killed by the Lebanese

Phalangist militia. Adegan Palestina mengingatkan banyak gambar yang keluar dari pembantaian

Sabra dan Shatila dari Beirut pada tahun 1982, ketika ribuan warga Palestina tewas oleh milisiPhalangis Lebanon.

As the death toll climbs and no word on a halt to the attacks has come from Israel, Gazans fear

for their lives and loved ones. Sebagai korban tewas memanjat dan tidak ada kata pada

"Hamas evacuated all its headquarter personnel after the cabinet meeting on Wednesday," one

defense official said, "but the organization sent its people back in when they heard that

everything was put on hold until Sunday."

Not only did this deception lead Hamas to send its officials back to work -- it also meant that

there was no general warning to the masses of civilians packed like sardines into Gaza's hellish

Page 10: Kebenaran Dibalik Serangan Israel di Gaza

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/kebenaran-dibalik-serangan-israel-di-gaza 10/12

confines. It meant that civilian casualties would be maximized -- especially when the initial

assault was launched in the middle of the day, with thousands of schoolchildren out at their

lesson.

As Glenn Greenwald notes, Israel's massive bombing of civilian areas -- even if couched in

terms of "retaliation" for scattershot strikes on Israeli territory by a political faction -- constitutes

"a clear violation of the Geneva Conventions." Greenwald also adroitly turns Barack Obama's

campaign kowtowing to Israeli militarism on its head:

[Obama on the campaign trail]: "The first job of any nation state is to protect its citizens. And so

I can assure you that if -- I don't even care if I was a politician -- if somebody was sending

rockets into my house where my two daughters sleep at night, I'm going to do everything in mypower to stop that. And I would expect Israelis to do the same thing."

Can't the exact same mentality be deployed to justify everything Hamas has done and is doing, to

wit: "if a foreign power were brutally occupying my country for four decades -- or blockading

my country and denying my children medical needs and nutrition and the ability even to exit --

I'm going to do everything in my power to stop that. And I would expect Palestinians to do the

same thing"? But the last thing that our political class ever extends is reciprocal, two-sided

analysis to this dispute.
