No, the West is not Hypocritical, it is Finally Being Honest in Declaring Non-White Lives Do Not Matter to Them

The purpose of the non-white world is simply to be used and exploited to serve the whims of the Western Empire

On 1st April Israel launched 6 bombs from its favourite F-35 murder jets on the consulate building of Iran in Damascus, killing 17 people. Embassies and consulate buildings are protected by all international law: they are inviolable and are considered to be the soil of the state that occupies them. In other words, the US embassy in London is the US state. The UK consulate in Egypt is the UK state. And the Iranian consulate in Damascus is the Iranian state. As such, Israel aimed, targeted and launched a deadly attack on Iranian soil.

Of course, the Israelis denied this. First, it was ‘only a consulate’ but realising that that in effect meant they were actually admitting to the notion that it did fall within the diplomatic laws of embassies, then changed tack and claimed their attack to have only taken place on an ‘annexe’ of the consulate and not the consulate itself. This is equally bizarre, as the underlying admission is that the building - being an annexe of the consulate - was thus part of the consulate complex.

They basically did not want to admit that they had attacked the sovereign state of Iran - which they very much did. Their cheerleaders and genocide supporters - the entire Western hegemony, kept shtum. This is because they very well knew that Israel had attacked Iran and murdered Iranians in an act of aggression and that Iran had every right to defend itself. No condemnation of course came from the West for the attack on Iran, because the West absolutely do not consider the deaths and murders of brown and black people - anyone non-white - to be a bad thing or a thing that requires condemnation.

And for the first time in modern history, rather than being hypocritical about equality and universality of human rights - which must necessarily include the right to self-defence - they have dropped all pretence. Their actions, their words, their violent suppression of any voice that speaks up for non-white people, their joint ethnic cleansing and genocide of non-white Gaza, all of it points to this fundamental truth, and they are no longer bothering to pretend. We may be horrified about the true face of the Western Empire - bloodthirsty, barbaric, mendacious, criminal, but it is their true face and in that at least there is a blessing. The devil can’t hide his horns forever, however beautiful his face may have seemed. We now see our collective oppressor in the bright light of day, and it is covered in blood.

Even the UN - the toothless machinery full of good-hearted and well-intentioned people, headquartered in the most bloodthirsty country on earth and constantly vetoed by men of extreme evil - wasn’t buying Israel’s Kool-Aid. Israel had not been attacked by Iran and so had no right to bomb its consulate and then claim they were acting in ‘self-defence.’

Iran gave the Western world plenty of time to condemn the attack. It waited on the UN to likewise give it some sort of remedy for what had occurred; at the very least a condemnation of Israel. But no, nothing came. Iran told Israel - and the world - that retaliation would be coming for this act of aggression. They even cited the West’s own ‘international law’ back to them - art. 51 of the UN convention and the right to self-defence:

“Nothing in the present Charter shall impair the inherent right of individual or collective self-defense if an armed attack occurs against a Member of the United Nations, until the Security Council has taken the measures necessary to maintain international peace and security.”

As noted, the Security Council did sweet eff all and so Iran had to take matters into its own hands and defended itself, alone.

It gave both the US, Israel and its allies plenty of notice. It let them know what was coming so they could prepare. The best preparation of course would have been an apology, reparations and diplomacy, but the opportunity to engage in warfare with a non-white nation is like a red flag to a bull for the Western Empire.

However, unlike Israel, Iran had no intention of killing anyone and absolutely no intention of aiming at civilians. Instead, it made a show of its military capabilities - sending in drones it knew would not penetrate Israel’s ‘iron dome’ in order to cause Israel to waste its money on shooting down its weak drones; while launching precision missile attacks on the military Nevatim airbase, from where the attack on their sovereign land in Damascus occurred. Western states clamoured to help Israel shoot down these drones; causing shrapnel to fall and hit a Beduoin girl. But this was the only casualty. Not a single person was killed. The cost of Israel’s defence was anywhere from $1.5-3 billion (not including the amount their allies paid), compared to the extremely modest £35 million of Iran. At the most conservative estimate, Iran spent 2% of what Israel spent. It also made its point - the iron dome is no match for their missiles and they can penetrate it at any time. It was a masterful stroke; a non-deadly retaliation which caused the US to quickly issue a statement that if Israel chose to attack Iran (again), they would not be supporting them. Seems genocidal Joe got sh*t up. Scott Ritter explains what it all means so much better than I do so here is his article.

You may think the West is being utterly hypocritical in its treatment of non-white people compared to white. But it is not. It genuinely believes non-white lives are worth less and are worthless. The whole Western world’s wealth is based on racism: the subjugation and exploitation of non-whites and the stealing of their lands and resources.

You may think that in uttering the lie that Israel has the ‘right to exist’ over and over, the West is being hypocritical. The clear axiom in the statement that ‘Israel has the right to exist’ is that the Palestinians do not have the right to exist and can be ethnically cleansed from their own land. This is not hypocrisy to the West - this is what they genuinely believe - white supremacy and racism. It’s why they love Gandhi so much; he also fell into the belief of racial hierarchy with the white man at the top.

The West is simply a racist entity that cannot exist without racism. Neoliberalism relies on racism: the ‘inferiority’ of one group to serve the needs of the ‘superior’ group. The inferior group are non-whites.

You don’t have to believe me, just watch them themselves. David Cameron does not feel it is in any way hypocritical for him to declare that should a British embassy be attacked, the British would respond with a ‘robust’ response, but he was genuinely taken aback at the idea that Iran should be allowed to do the same:

We saw the exact same with Keir Starmer. Keir is aghast at the war crimes he claims are being committed against the white Ukrainians - (a country we must remember, refused to let black people leave when the war began) - but refuses to say the same about genocide against non-white Palestinians.

Starmer is of course, famous for stating that Israel - a colony of Europeans - has the right to starve and siege Palestinian children.

This isn’t hypocrisy - this is the evil and racist ideology that both of these men - indeed the whole structure of Western government, subscribe to.

Western hegemony is so racist that even when using Google to ask when this Israel-Iran attack started, they too believe the non-whites of Iran have no right to defend their lives and twist the narrative to the European colony of Israel being the victim of the brown people who they attacked and killed in an unprovoked military assault. It’s acceptance by the entire Western machinery - from governments to corporations, to media (aka propaganda) - that brown people can be attacked and killed and there is no problem with this. However, brown people are not allowed the right to fight against their exploitation, destruction and extinction; for they only exist for the Western world to do precisely that to them.

In the UK, non-whites are not safe and they are fair game. Particularly Muslims, simply because they form one of the bigger blocks of the non-white world and the Western Empire favours invading them as their states are very resource-rich. India was the richest nation on Earth before the British invaded. They took everything and left it in pieces, to pick up the pieces.

The UK state is so racist that Tory councillors can retweet garbage like this and not face any condemnation whatsoever from the ruling Tory party; which is exactly what we have seen with Lee Anderson’s appalling comments. The Tories defend his racism as it is a shared affliction and ideology they all hold - they do not think they are being racist because from their point of view, they are not. In their worldview, non-white lives are inferior and there is nothing racist in saying that.

Lord Ahmed recently said that it is legal for dual-nationals to fight in the army of their other nationality (as long as that state is not fighting against Britain) - which means British citizens can go to Israel and join in the genocide of the Palestinians. However, British Palestinians cannot fight in their army because Palestine is not recognised as a state by Britain. That is Brtain’s official position. To recap: Yes to genocide; no to the protection of non-white civilians being ethnically cleansed and starved to death.

British IDF soldiers are allowed to go and kill innocent, non-white civilians in Palestine and then come back to Britain and give lectures about it. Or they can get jobs in red-brick universities as chaplains, in charge of giving ‘spiritual guidance’ to students.

When confronted by the naked truth, we see that Western Empire is sicker than we thought and Western hegemony is intrinsically dangerous for the majority of the world, who are non-white.

I have complete and total hopelessness in believing that Western internal systems - mislabeled as ‘democracy’ - can change this fundamental truism and the institutional racism that allows them to function. We will always vote in murderers of non-white people because there is no other way. Voting is not of the ‘lesser evils’ determined on personal comfort and interests, but with the understanding that in your vote there will be blood on your hands. Justify it away with NHS funding (though this time there will be none), or lower university fees (again, there will be none), which no doubt would help millions of people. But it does not take away from the truth that people will still be murdered in racist, military interventions of theft and exploitation. That is the reality and that is the truth. And it has come to a point that on a personal level, I simply cannot continue to engage in this wicked balancing act. The dehumanisation and ‘othering’ of people, however, make this balancing act acceptable to others - the fact that the conflicts we are funding are ‘so far away’. But maybe think of it this way. Imagine a family of people in front of you; battered and bruised and poor. It is election time and the Prime Minister comes in, with a member of the armed forces. The soldier puts the gun to the temple of one of the children. “I will lower your taxes,” says the Prime Minister, “but I will also kill this family. Will you vote for me?”

Maybe when faced with such a stark choice it becomes a little bit harder. Of course, Prime Ministers do not kill just one family; they are responsible for the deaths of thousands.

The West is not being hypocritical in its treatment of the non-white and Muslim world. It is being as it always has been - racist and white supremacist. The devil no longer wants to hide his horns; his mask has been ripped off, and it is about time we woke up to this fact because if we do not - if we still keep trying to make these hardened, evil and determined racists see sense - we will be wasting our time and resources. We need something greater. We need fundamental system change.

And the irony is, these warmongers may bring it all on themselves, with their continuing and persistent belief in their own supremacy, making them desperate to start a huge war with the ‘inferior’ non-whites; a war which this time, they may well lose.
