Genocide, Domicide, Ecocide and War

As Europe deals with the 5th Heatwave of the year, we see Wildfires everywhere. Israel makes them into a Weapon of WAR.

By waging war against Iran, the US frees up the Israeli army to conquer more territory in southern Lebanon. Since 2006, Israel has employed the Dahiya Doctrine (named after a suburb of Beirut) of punitive home demolition, also known as ‘domicide ‘. Now it adds ‘ecocide’ to the list of weapons. To make Southern Lebanon unlivable, the IDF now sets forest fires to destroy the environment. In addition, it regularly employs white phosphorus, which is banned in warfare. The chemical burns when it touches water and cannot be put out. It burns right through its victims. In the environment, it does the same, destroying animals, plants, and soil.

The goal of warfare has changed since World War I began 110 years ago.

In that war, far more troops were killed than civilians. In World War II, far more civilians died. Since then, the goal of war now is the destruction of civilians, rather than the opposing army. We see this in every tactic that Israel and the US employ: massacring civilians, destroying hospitals, schools, and human infrastructure.

Why? Capitalism Values Humans to the extent it can Exploit our Labor.

In corporate eyes, humans have almost no value. We become impediments when robots and AI can do our jobs. Necessary to remove humans to take the land. This is why the US is using AI to develop Bio-Weapons. Gaza is the harbinger of the future that capitalism promises.

Humans are threatened by the expansion of Corporations around the World.

In the US Civil War, free labor in the North was threatened by the expansion of slavery across the country, which was the goal of the Southern Slavocracy. To protect themselves, northern workers had to abolish private property in humans. Today, human beings are threatened by the expansion of corporations around the world. They intend to seize, privatize, and to extract every bit of wealth out of human beings and Nature for private profit. The only way we can protect ourselves and our planet is to abolish all private property that exploits or robs others.
