George W. Bush is well-known for his low intellectuality and clarion ignorance of the world. To mask these serious flaws and shortcomings, he routinely adopts a discourse based on mendacity and dishonesty.

And while it is premature to pass a final judgment on the man, it is probably safe to conclude  by now that he has already brought an irremediable disaster upon the United States and the rest of the world.

A few years ago,  the ruthless ignoramus of the White House  invaded, occupied and destroyed two sovereign countries, and killed or caused the death of over a million innocent people, all under the flimsy pretexts of fighting terror.

Bush  even had the temerity to claim that “God told me to do it.”

Last week, human decency was once again affronted By Bush’s diatribe at the Israeli parliament, the Knesset. There he bestowed all the epithets of glory upon a state that practices mass murder, ethnic cleansing and land theft, a state whose very existence was, is and will always be a colossal crime against humanity.

While contemptuously ignoring the Palestinian Nakba, the catastrophe of  an innocent people that had to be cruelly  uprooted from its ancestral homeland in order to compensate Ashkenazi Jews for the holocaust, George Bush heaped lavish praise on Israel, a state run by an essentially  criminal elite of warmongers and  war criminals ever since its violent birth sixty years ago.

Bush began his ranting by pointing out how the “Jewish people endured the agony of the pogroms, the tragedy of the Great War, and the horrors of the Holocaust,” as if Jewish  victimhood, however genuine it may be, gave Zionism the right to commit genocide and ethnic cleaning against another people.

Bush quoted what Eli Wiesel called “the Kingdom of the night” where “soulless men took away lives and broke apart families, adding that   “yet they couldn’t take away the spirit of the Jewish people, and they could not break the promise of God.”

But he utterly ignored  Zionism’s own   kingdom of darkness, where callous-hearted criminals, bearing Jewish names but having Nazi hearts and minds, took away lives and broke families, who notwithstanding their evils, wouldn’t be able to take away the spirit of the Palestinian people, nor break the promise of God.

Wiesel, the sanctimonious American Zionist paragon of hypocrisy and moral duplicity has little moral authority to lecture the world on the evils of Nazism. A man who says and boasts openly that he identifies himself with Israeli crimes and that he couldn’t bring himself to criticize Israel irrespective of her murderous actions, is obviously unqualified for any moral exemplification.

Bush spoke of Israel’s “thriving democracy,” but evaded the fact that apartheid and democracy can’t coexist.

Could it be that the President of the United States, the erstwhile mother of all democracies, didn’t know that murdering innocent human beings knowingly and deliberately, demolishing people’s homes, stealing their land and confining thousands of doctors, teachers,  college professors and other professionals to detention camps, without charge or trial, were unlawful acts  that contravened the most basic ideals of true democracy?

Bush enthusiastically hailed Israel for “welcoming immigrants from the four corners of  Earth” but overlooked the fact that for each and every immigrant Israel welcomed into Palestine, a native Palestinian Christian or Muslim was either murdered, dispossessed of his property or deported to the four corners of Earth.

George Bush is indeed a shameful and irredeemable liar. He had the audacity to claim that America’s enduring embrace of Israel’s enduring criminality had nothing to do with the violence, tension and instability in the Middle East.

“Some people,” he said, “suggest that if the United States would just break ties with Israel, all our problems in the Middle East would go away.

“This is a tired argument that buys into the propaganda of our enemies, and America rejects it utterly. Israel’s population may be just over 7 million, but when you confront terror and evil, you are 307 million strong, because America stands with you.”

Well, no one has ever demanded that the US break ties with Israel, although this would in no way be an unconscionable demand, given Israel’s Nazi-like character.

What much of the world is demanding is that the US stop supporting the Israeli policies of colonialism, ethnic cleansing and genocide against a people whose only “crime” is its survival and longing for freedom from occupation and apartheid.

Bush, having evoked the mantras of  the  “chosen people” and  “Massada shall not fall again,” even  lashed out at the UN for criticizing Israel, but was utterly oblivious of  the horrendous crimes and grave human rights violations that Israel committed throughout its dark history, which prompted the international organization to censure the terrorist state.

At one point, Bush seemed as if fornicating with words when he hailed Israel for “forging a free and modern society  based on love of liberty, a passion for justice and a respect for human rights.”

What else can be said when a state that is based on ethnic cleansing, oppression, and  terrorism is celebrated as a bastion of liberty, justice and human rights? Have words lost their meaning?

Bush’s nearly pornographic disregard for truth and objective facts reached a nauseating level when he praised successive Israeli governments for having tirelessly fought for peace while having to fight valiantly for freedom!!

I don’t know if Bush really believed  what he was saying, or if he was just parroting the words prepared for him by his Zionist  speech writer.

Whatever the case,  this man is clearly an abomination upon himself, America and the world.

The American people would carry out an act of paramount morality by dumping him   and what he represents into the dustbin of history.

Failing to do so, God forbid, would plunge not only America but the whole world into the abyss.
