Biden’s State of the Union on Israel: 600 Words, 4 Massive Lies & 1 Cruel Joke

Biden devoted a little over 600 words to the war that he is funding in Palestine, which has now taken more than 30,000 lives. In those few words, he packed four massive lies and one cruel joke.

The Four Massive Lies

1) Biden claimed that the crisis in Gaza “began on October 7th with a massacre by the terrorist group Hamas.” He whited out 75 years of imperialist-backed genocidal ethnic cleansing of Palestine by Zionist Israel. 

2) He equated the 1,200 Israelis killed by Hamas to the Nazi genocide that killed millions of Jews, when right now it is Israel that is carrying out genocide against the defenseless Palestinian people in Gaza. 

3) He claimed, “The United States has been leading international efforts to get more humanitarian assistance into Gaza” when the United States has killed efforts to get in aid by vetoing three cease-fire resolutions at the UN. And defunding and pressuring other countries to defund the UN agency that distributes food in Gaza. 

4) He massively lied by omission, somehow forgetting to mention that as he spoke, the U.S. continued supplying the bombs, drones, tanks, missiles, and guns that have reduced much of Gaza to rubble. 

And the cruel joke:

Any “aid” the U.S. provides for the people who Biden is starving to death in Gaza, like “air drops” that dumped meals for a few tens of thousands of people into an area where over two million people are starving, or the “floating pier” he promised in his speech that might be a channel for aid in two months, are shameful publicity stunts to cover up the role of the U.S. in backing Israel’s genocide against the Palestinian people.

DONATE to the revolution.

From the genocide in Gaza, to the growing threat of world war between nuclear powers, to escalating environmental devastation… the capitalist-imperialist system ruling over us is a horror for billions around the world and is tearing up the fabric of life on earth. Now the all-out battle within the U.S. ruling class, between fascist Republicans and war criminal Democrats, is coming to a head—likely during, or before, the coming elections—ripping society apart unlike anything since the Civil War. 

Bob Avakian (BA), revolutionary leader and author of the new communism, has developed a strategy to prepare for and make revolution. He’s scientifically analyzed that this is a rare time when an actual revolution has become more possible, and has laid out the sweeping vision, solid foundation and concrete blueprint for “what comes next,” in the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America

The website revcom.us follows and applies that leadership and is essential to all this. We post new materials from BA and curate his whole body of work. We apply the science he’s developed to analyze and expose every key event in society, every week. Revcom.us posts BA’s timely leadership for the revcoms (revolutionary communists), including his social media posts which break this down for people every week and sometimes more. We act as a guiding and connecting hub for the growing revcom movement nationwide: not just showing what’s being done, but going into what’s right and what’s wrong and rapidly learning—and recruiting new people into what has to be a rapidly growing force.

Put it this way: there will be no revolution unless this website not only “keeps going” but goes up to a whole different level!

So what should you give to make 2024 our year—a year of revolution?
