The Octopus of Genocide: Biden and Corporations with Tentacles in Indian Country Responsible 

By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, Jan. 15, 2024

Starvation and bombs are weapons of genocide being used by Israel on Palestinians. Biden, and U.S. corporations with tentacles in Indian country, are now responsible for war crimes and genocide being carried out by Israel. Israel said the cyber technology provided by U.S. corporations is being used by Israel to precision target Palestinians for death.

The Corporate Octopus

Actionists at the London Stock Exchange were arrested after an undercover journalist using a false identity reported them to police.

The action follows the London Stock Exchange's support for Israel, including investor support for Elbit Systems and Rafael.

Elbit Systems, an Israeli defense contractor, built the spy towers on the Tohono O'odham Nation and provides weaponized drones and surveillance to Israel to target Palestinians for arrest, torture, imprisonment and death.

Rafael, an Israeli defense contractor, is partnered with Raytheon Missiles in Tucson. Raytheon Missiles is housed at the University of Arizona in Tucson. The university develops weapons with Raytheon Missiles. Raytheon has a factory on the Navajo Nation's commercial farm near Shiprock, New Mexico.

They are now contributors and responsible for war crimes and the genocide of Palestinians.

Palestine Action said today, "Five activists were released on bail after they were arrested for alleged ‘conspiracy to commit public nuisance’ at the London Stock Exchange." 

The London Stock Exchange has raised billions in the sale of bonds for the apartheid state of Israel in the past six years, Palestine Action said.

"In a meeting on the 8th February 2022 between the UK Secretary of State and Israeli investors, which included representatives from Israeli weapons companies Elbit Systems and Rafael, it was noted that, 'The London Stock Exchange has a strong and important relationship with Israel.'"

"The arrests came after an undercover journalist from the Daily Express infiltrated the group and reported the activists to the police. The journalist, Max Parry, joined Palestine Action under the false identity of ‘Ollie Maxwell.'"

Elbit Systems, US Border Patrol, Surveillance of Tohono O'odham Nation

(Photo) Israel's Elbit Systems built the spy towers, integrated fixed towers, on the Tohono O'odham Nation. These spy towers now provide the crime-infested U.S. Border Patrol with live video to stalk vulnerable O'odham on their homeland. U.S. Border Patrol agents have been charged with murder, serial rape, assault, kidnapping, drug running and spotting for the cartels to bring their drug loads across the border, all along the southern border of the United States. This photo shows the surveillance on the Tohono O'odham Nation carried out by US Border Patrol agents at the Air Force base in Tucson. The spy towers were contracted by the U.S. government, then approved by the elected Tohono O'odham government, over the objections of traditional Tohono O'odham. During the spy tower construction, workers dug into O'odham burial and ceremonial places. -- Censored News.

Biden and Appointees Charged with Genocide 

Usually, the U.S. president just lies to the public, gains public support for war, and then proceeds to murder millions of innocent people in its endless wars.

It is not working this time. Biden is being sued by the Center for Constitutional Rights for his role in the genocide of Palestinians. The case will be heard in a northern California court this month.

South African lawyers notified Biden and his appointees that they are filing a lawsuit against them for genocide.

TeleSur reports:

“We intend to bring legal proceedings against the U.S. Government based on overwhelming evidence that the U.S. Government has, and is, aiding, abetting and supporting, encouraging or providing material assistance and means to Israel and the Israeli Defense Forces. This conduct by the U.S. Government has enabled and continues to enable Israel to engage in international crimes against the Palestinian people,” the South African lawyers said in a letter sent to US President Joe Biden on January 2.

“These crimes resulted in, among others, the displacement of the Palestinian people from their homes and property, destruction of Palestinian property, theft of Palestinian land and which facilitate and assist Israel in committing the ongoing and current war crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide , and intentional killing of innocent civilians, including men, women, children and babies as well as the elderly and disabled.”

Now, as Palestinians are starving, and searching for food, they are being killed by Israeli snipers. https://twitter.com/i/status/1746618354394120284

Israel Murdered More than 100 Journalists in Palestine in 100 Days

.


Veteran reporter and Al Jazeera Gaza bureau chief Wael Al Dahdouh speaks on his vow to continue reporting after losing five family members to Israeli airstrikes. He speaks on his only TV interview with Western media.
"We feel we are being killed twice. Once by these bombs and once by this silence." Western journalists and press organizations are leaving Palestinian journalists to die without their support."
Meanwhile, in New York, protesters blocked the entrance to the New York Times again, reading aloud the names of more than 100 journalists murdered by Israel in Palestine.

Weapons for Genocide: Bombs, Starvation and U.S. Tech Companies 

Bombs and starvation are being used as weapons -- but also the tech world is providing a new deadly weapon. Israel says it is using AI, artificial intelligence, to precision target Palestinians in its kill strikes.

Israel brought in U.S. tech giants and investors for its "Start-up Nation" gathering in Tel Aviv in December. The tech giants included AlphaSense, an Al-market intelligence platform.

The Intercept provides the bios and itinerary for the tech and investor conference. It was held in Tel Aviv while the bombs were falling on Palestine in the ongoing genocide.



Solidarity with Palestine around the World

Block the Boat, Oakland, California, Saturday



(Photos above by Brooke Anderson) Dena Takuri reports from the shutdown of the Port of Oakland on Saturday: This is one of the biggest ports in North America, and protesters shut down the port all day. "Just now there should be an afternoon shift, but two hundred workers refused to cross the picket line in solidarity with Palestine and in protest of the U.S. continuing to send weapons to Israel to use in its genocide in Palestine."

Blocking the Rails in Halifax, Canada Activists in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, blocked CN rail tracks used for transporting weapons to Israel via ZIM ships. ZIM is the largest Israeli shipping company, known to ship weapons from Canadian companies. The activists called for an immediate arms embargo on Israel.

Nelson Mandela's Grandson: With Gratitude to Glasgow, Scotland

The grandson of Nelson Mandela spoke Saturday in Glasgow, Scotland, thanking Glasgow for its support in the fight against Apartheid and Genocide by Israel. Nkosi Zwelivelile Mandela thanked the leadership in Glasgow and people of Scotland for their historic solidarity with South Africa during their darkest hours.

Glasgow was the first city in the world to bestow on Nelson Mandela "Freedom of the City." Mandela visited Glasgow to thank the people after being released from prison.



"Nkosi Zwelivelile Mandela, an MP in South Africa and chief of the Mvezo Traditional Council, made the speech outside of Glasgow City Chambers in the city’s George Square on a Global Day of Action," reports The National in Scotland.

"It was a historic moment given the connection Glasgow has with his late grandfather. In 1981, Nelson Mandela was given the Freedom of the City of Glasgow. At the time, the future president of South Africa was 17 years into the 27-year term he would serve in Robben Island after being jailed for life."

"Then in 1986, St George's Place in Glasgow was renamed Nelson Mandela Place, and still is."

"In 1993, Nelson Mandela ­visited Glasgow City Chambers, and said: “While we were physically denied our freedom in the country of our birth, a city 6000 miles away, and as renowned as Glasgow, refused to accept the legitimacy of the apartheid system, and declared us to be free.”
