"It’s already over. And as the Western order fractures under the weight of its own contradictions, Gaza won’t be a footnote to its collapse. It’ll be remembered as the moment the world finally understood that the system had died long before anyone admitted it."

Huthaifa

Everyone praising Mark Carney’s speech as “bold,” “brave,” or “eloquent,” and treating it as evidence that the West can still rescue itself, is still misunderstanding the nature of the crisis.

The “rules-based international order” didn’t erode gradually or mysteriously; it collapsed the moment Western governments showed that the rules don’t apply when the violator is an ally. Gaza didn’t expose a weakness in the system that could be patched or repaired; it revealed what the system actually is.

For two years, the Western world didn’t merely fail to restrain Israel; it funded it, armed it, vetoed accountability, rewrote legal standards in real time, and criminalized dissent at home. International law was selectively suspended, not overwhelmed like some people want to say, and once legality becomes conditional, the concept itself ceases to exist.

That was the real point of no return in 2023. Not because Donald Trump violating the sovereignty of Greenland broke the order, but because the precedent was set in full view of the world: mass killing can be lawful if it’s committed by the right state, against the right people, with the right patrons. After that, no appeal to “norms” or “institutions” can be taken seriously again. — Huthaifa Everyone praising Mark Carney’s speech as “bold,” “brave,” or “eloquent,” and treating it as evidence that the West can still rescue itself, is still misunderstanding the nature of the crisis.

Don’t gaslight yourselves into thinking that Carney is offering a path to renewal here; he’s delivering a sophisticated obituary. You can’t rebuild credibility with speeches after showing that the law is optional. Anyone treating this as a hopeful turning point is as delusional as a person watching their house burn and believing better fire alarms will restore the structure.

It’s already over. And as the Western order fractures under the weight of its own contradictions, Gaza won’t be a footnote to its collapse.

Seriously? The "Exec Committee", working under the "Board of Peace" (member, one Keir Starmer) has Mossad affiliates and founders of the GHF on it.

"Sources told Times of Israel in a report published on 11 January that the Israeli army has drawn up plans for a new assault in the Gaza Strip – aimed at expanding the areas under Tel Aviv’s control in violation of the ceasefire."

"By failing to uphold international law in the case of Gaza, Ireland and the EU have effectively signalled that such laws are optional, thereby paving the way for the very disregard for international law we are now seeing."

Sir, – Following the US military action in Venezuela, Miriam Ryan (Letters, January 7th) asks:“surely Ireland and the EU could have taken this opportunity to stand squarely behind international law?’

This should come as no surprise. For the past two years we have seen no meaningful sanctions against the state of Israel for their genocidal actions against the population of Gaza.

The Genocide Convention (enshrined in International Law and Irish domestic law) obligates states to prevent and punish perpetrators of genocide once they learn of a “serious risk” that genocide may be occurring. The International Court of Justice, in their January 2024 ruling against Israel, sounded this risk without any possibility of doubt.

By failing to uphold international law in the case of Gaza, Ireland and the EU have effectively signalled that such laws are optional, thereby paving the way for the very disregard for international law we are now seeing. First, they came for Gaza. – Yours, etc.

"Gaza is simply an experiment by the mega-rich, attempting to show the peoples of the world how they would respond to a rebellion of humanity. They plan to bomb all of us."

Listen very carefully to Gustavo Petro.
