Victim-blaming as national policy.

At this point, I'm not even the tiniest bit surprised.

The one reassuring thing in all of this is that it's near certain that the era in which history can be manipulated is likely over - that the advent of the internet and the proliferation of information makes it so that once the principals are out of power or dead, history is going to narrow in on the actual truth.

And the actual truth about Israel and Palestine, and the US's involvement, is very, very ugly, and I suspect that no matter how much success the psychopaths and liars have diverting from that fact currently, it's going to come out eventually, and rightly take its place as a terribly shameful part of history.

It'll of course be too late for the mass-murderers and their enablers and co-conspirators to face the consequences they so richly deserve, but it's something.
