“Liberal” “Progressive” Assassin takes aim at a Peacemaker

Profile of a Peacemaker committed to Diplomacy, Sovereignty

One the few leaders of an EU or a NATO country who takes a position that is different from the prevailing Collective Western view.

“I will support zero military aid to Ukraine…. An immediate halt to military operations is the best solution we have for Ukraine. The EU should change from an arms supplier to a peacemaker.”

“As long as I am the head of the Slovak government, I will never agree that a country should be punished for fighting for its sovereignty. I will never agree with such an attack on Hungary.”

“Ukraine is not a sovereign, independent country. Ukraine is under the absolute influence of the United States of America…. [T]he EU is making a huge mistake, not wanting to keep a sovereign view of Ukraine, and only agreeing to what the US says.”

“[T]here are countries that are ready to send troops to Ukraine. There also are countries that say ‘never’ to that; Slovakia is one of them; [a]nd there are some countries that say such ideas deserve consideration.”

The Slovak Republic is a mountainous country (sloping into fertile lowlands of the Danube River plain); a landlocked country in Central Europe bordering Poland, Hungary, Ukraine, Austria, and the Czech Republic; with a population of (circa) 5,445,040 people: 80 percent Slovak, 20 percent Hungarian, Romanian, Russian, Pole, German, et.al. 

    In the latter half of the twentieth century: the Slovak Socialist Republic within the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic changes the unitary Czechoslovak state into a federation in January 1969; the Slovak Republic changes name within established Czech and Slovak Federative Republic in March 1990; then came the dissolution of Czechoslovakia in January1993. The Slovak Republic has been a member of the military alliance NATO since 2004. (World Atlas, latest update February 24, 2021, https://www.worldatlas.com/maps/slovakia and other reference sources)

Prime Minister of the Slovak Republic 

Robert Fico

Google translation of text entered at official government website, some news reporting

“I say it loud and clear …: The war in Ukraine didn’t start yesterday or last year. It began in 2014 when the Ukrainian Nazis and fascists started to murder Russian citizens in Donbass and Lugansk”— Robert Fico

After becoming prime minister for a third time in October 2023, Robert Fico “reversed the previous government’s decision to send weapons to Ukraine.” Fico argued also “that the conflict between Ukraine and Russia should be resolved through diplomacy.”

Human Rights and Freedom for All People— A Call not to Isms but to Conscience

    This long-lasting humanitarian scandal …challenging the conscience of all of humanity … involves the entire Palestinian population of Gaza— Richard Falk, Board Chairman of Euro-Med Monitor

Richard Falk is an international law and international relations scholar; an author (whose books include books include A Study of Future Worlds, Public Intellectual: The Life of a Citizen Pilgrim, and Protecting Human Rights in Occupied Gaza (co-editor); an academic (Princeton University, University of California), board chair of the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation.

Euro-Med Monitor

Reporting from the Ground, with Essential Context

In a thirteen-year period (2008-2021), Israeli forces launched four unprovoked attacks (in addition to sporadic air and ground attacks) on the Gaza Strip:

• Operation Cast Lead (2008-2009): three weeks of Israeli forces’ dropping “around 1 million kilograms of explosives on the strip,” destroying “nearly 4,100 houses and damaging 17,500 others”; and leaving “nearly 1,500 (1,436)” Palestinians dead and “about 5,400 others” wounded (including many children and women).

• Operation Pillar of Defense (2012): eight days of Israeli warplanes’ killing “162 Palestinians” and wounding “nearly 1,300” others; destroying “200 houses,” and damaging “another 1,500 homes.”

• Operation Protective Edge (2014): fifty-one days 60,664 Israeli land, sea and air raids’ killing “2,147 Palestinians (in many cases, involving one family) and wounding 10,870 others;” hitting “17,123 homes,” and obliterating “2,465” of them.

• Operation Guardian of the Walls (2021): eleven days of the Israeli army’s air and artillery attacks on the Gaza Strip’s infrastructure (“especially streets, water wells, and public facilities, as well as the Strip’s economic and productive capacities”) and killing “254 Palestinians” (including 66 children, 39 women, and 17 elderly people), and wounding “about 1,948 others.”

After October 2023 the Collective West (government officials and major media) openly armed and cheered the Israeli militarists’ willful and unchecked belligerence. Reported by Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor in May 2024:

The Israeli Army during its forced evacuation of civilians “kills 12 members of same family for no reason” Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor concluded that

The family members were killed deliberately in the context of Israeli crimes against civilians, i.e., (they) were targeted simply because they were Palestinians in the Gaza Strip during Israel’s crime of genocide, ongoing since 7 October 2023.

The Israeli army has committed hundreds of crimes, the details of which are still unknown due to the ongoing Israeli invasion and attacks. Field teams from Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor are diligently and retroactively documenting war crimes, including planned killings of civilians throughout the Gaza Strip.

There remains “an urgent need … for the swift formation of an international investigation committee,” and the dispatch of “experts” … to the Strip to investigate the genocide unfolding there and to collect evidence before it is destroyed by (the belligerents).” https://euromedmonitor.org/en/article/6314/During-its-forced-evacuation-of-civilians,-Israeli-army-kills-12-members-of-same-family-for-no-reason

Caprice and Callousness

The Israeli government in 1971 constructed on the Israeli side a fence, border barrier or wall separating Israel from Gaza. An Oslo Agreement, signed by the Palestine Liberation Organization and Israel in 1994, permitted Palestinians to sail up to 20 nautical miles (about 37 km) off the Gaza coast. But the agreement has never been honored: “Israel has arbitrarily limited fishing to an ever-changing zone that is never farther than 12 nautical miles out.”

Restrictions on Movement

    “Before Israel imposed its blockade on Gaza, individuals and goods moved in and out through six crossings: Erez, Karni, Nahal Oz, Kerem Shalom and Sufa via Israel and Rafah via Egypt. Once the blockade was enforced, all of them were closed except for Egypt’s Rafah crossing and Israel’s Erez (for people) and Kerem Abu Shalom (for goods).” And even the Egyptian authorities “impose restrictions on the number and type of people allowed to cross the border.”

    “Palestinians in Gaza are forced to pay high unofficial ‘coordination fees’ to travel through the Rafah crossing without encountering security restrictions or delays.” And Egyptian authorities assail Palestinians “frequent searches…” causing a “journey between the Rafah crossing and Cairo International Airport”—a trip that should take no more than six hours—“to take up to 72 hours.”

Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor documents the Gaza Strip’s “Almost unlivable (conditions) after 17 years of blockade”

“Farming and the impact of the ‘buffer zone’”

    An Israeli government-imposed “buffer zone” —prohibiting movement of Palestinians—extends well beyond the border fence. From its 2008 assault, the Israeli government opposed “off-limits” land has represented about 35 percent of the Gaza’s land suitable for agriculture; and Israeli forces have destroyed or contaminated much of this arable land. Through the 2012 Israeli attack and since then Israeli forces have routinely targeted farmers working “in permitted areas.” “Israeli aircraft repeatedly spray herbicide on Palestinian lands along the borders, causing damage to agricultural crops, even in areas that are more than 300 meters from the fence;” thus “threatening farmers’ only source of livelihood.”

    Actual boundaries of a “security zone” separating Israel and Gaza are unclear and, like the designated sea area in which fishing is permitted, “the line always seems to be shifting.”

Strangulation

    “Over the years, Israeli authorities have worked to broaden and deepen the isolation of the Gaza Strip. One of the most draconian restrictions in its impact was Israel’s separation of Gaza from the West Bank. This separation policy restricted Palestinians’ entry into and exit out of Gaza, preventing university students in Gaza from receiving education in West Bank universities, professionals from participating in continuing education, patients from receiving healthcare, businessmen from trading, and families from staying united.”

    The Israeli blockade has driven the Gaza Strip’s economy into long-term, general recession “resulting in the near-total closure of commercial crossings and severe restrictions on the movement of traders and other businesspeople.” The years of wars (just in recent times from 2008 through 2021) have “exacerbated the crisis” in the Gaza Strip, “paralyzing all enterprise” as plants and offices and jobs were destroyed, consequences that extend “long after ceasefires (are) declared.”

    The average number of people living below the poverty line in the Gaza Strip is “twice higher than that of the West Bank.”

• Gaza Strip Unemployment rate by the beginning of 2023: 47 percent (compared to 23 percent in 2005)
• Gaza Strip citizens dependent on aid: 80 percent
• Gaza populations’ poverty rate by the beginning of 2023: 61.6 percent (compared to 40 percent in 2005)

• Land suitable for agriculture deducted by the buffer zone: 35 percent
• Gaza agriculture’s share of the total GDP: 7.1 percent
• Value of agricultural sector losses due to the Israeli blockade and military attacks (2006 - 2022): (in US dollars) $1.3 billion
• Livestock impaired that grazed in the buffer zone: 70 percent

• Area allowed for fishing: 3-6-12 nautical miles
• Number of Monthly incidents in which Israeli Navy targeted fishermen’s boats in 2022: 30
• Gaza’s fishermen living below the poverty line: 90 percent
• Number of registered fishermen in Gaza: 4,000 (fall from 10,000 since the year 2000)

In its April 2024 Report

Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor recommends

• That the international community fulfill its legal and moral obligations to the people residing in the Gaza Strip, ensuring that international law and rulings of the International Court of Justice are respected and implemented; and that the genocide the Court has declared as likely to have occurred in Gaza in January (and ongoing for nearly six months) be ended

• That all nations fulfill their international obligations and halt all military, financial, and political support for Israel’s genocide against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip—particularly, the immediate halt of all arms transfers to Israel, including export permits and military assistance.

• That Appropriate Entities facilitate the entry of necessary humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip without delay in order to stop the spread of famine—stressing that, under international law, Israel, as the occupying power, bears the primary responsibility for supplying food, medical supplies, and other necessities to the Gaza Strip’s residents.

• That funding be reinstated for UNRWA immediately, as it is the main humanitarian agency in the Gaza Strip—on which more than two million people depend for their survival—putting an end to collective punishment against the Palestinian people and supporting UNRWA* and all other humanitarian institutions operating in the Strip.

• That an independent investigation be opened into the killing of starving people, especially the horrifying massacres for which Israel has tried to evade responsibility.

UNRWA 

    United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) was established after the 1948 War by United Nations General Assembly Resolution 302 (IV) on December 8, 1949. Its mission is “to carry out direct relief and works programs for Palestine refugees.” The Agency began operations on May 1, 1950. “The Agency’s services encompass education, health care, relief and social services, camp infrastructure and improvement, microfinance and emergency assistance, including in times of armed conflict.”

    “The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) is funded almost entirely by voluntary contributions from UN Member States;” and receives “some funding from the Regular Budget of the United Nations, which is used mostly for international staffing costs.”
https://www.unrwa.org/

Genocide Convention

    The Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide was adopted by nations of the United Nations General Assembly (GA Resolution 260 A (III)) on December 8, 1948. 

    The Resolution entered into force in accordance with article XIII on January 12, 1951. Coming out of the Second World War and reflecting on the atrocities of that period, the contracting parties or signatories, “having considered the declaration made by the General Assembly of the United Nations in its resolution 96 (I) dated December 11, 1946, agreed that 

genocide is a crime under international law, contrary to the spirit and aims of the United Nations and condemned by the civilized world; and

recognizing that at all periods of history, genocide has inflicted great losses on humanity, and

being convinced that, in order to liberate mankind from such an odious scourge, international co-operation is required.

And thus, the contracting parties agreed to the naming and defining of the crime:

    In Article 2 is the definition of genocide as “any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

(a) Killing members of the group
(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group
(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part
(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group
(e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

In Article 1 the “contracting parties” (or signatories) confirm that 

Genocide—whether committed in time of peace or in time of war—is a crime under international law which they (the contracting parties or signatories) undertake to prevent and to punish. https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/convention-prevention-and-punishment-crime-genocide

A Time to Mourn

There is “a season,” the poet writes, “a time to every purpose”: “A time to weep,” and “a time to laugh;” “a time to mourn, and a time to dance.”

T

his moment is a time to mourn.

    I mourn our Motherland. I mourn for a mother (one of America’s First Ladies) and her young son. I mourn a period in time that is wasted on surround-sound vulgarity, a relentlessness in theater of distraction and depravity. 

        I mourn my country overrun by philistines and mercenaries; my country reduced so low that no nation of moral, rational, sensible human beings dares to trust or, in any way, take seriously American leaders, partners and public figures—and thus any policies or promises emanating from the United States of America. 

                I mourn our brokenness.

                No matter what team you are on, what tribal banner you are sporting—a collective end is certain. 

                Any nation or individual or tribe that is weighted down in self-righteousness (or depravity or both of these maladies), rushing pell-mell off a mountain cliff, is bent on the inevitable unhappy ending: annihilation.

UNCONSCIONABLE CARELESSNESS no thoughts and prayers or hearts and flowers can heal.

Working men with families died because United States politicians and partners prioritize war making, destabilization and failed states, sales and marketing of war-making matériel and weaponry over human life.

The employing company of the Key Bridge casualties posts no memorial, no names of the dead and wounded.

Six men who lost their lives that spring day on an improperly built bridge in Baltimore, Maryland, were Americans: North and Central Americans.

Remembrance

Pandering supplants Governing: UNI Party funds Relentless Wars Abroad, Misplaced Priorities at Home

 Waste Fraud Abuse Legislated

Congressman Roy spoke on the Congressional Record

Last year … we were working together to change this place: to vote bills off the floor, to have single-subject bills, and to have 72 hours—a mere 72 hours—to read a bill.”

“In just over a year, we have tossed all of that out the window, and we are back to business as usual. We jam a bill through…—a bill over a thousand pages—… in 24 hours”; a “$1.2 trillion” bill … littered with all manner of (questionable) earmarks and spending and programs… we are still figuring out … that are undermining the wellbeing of the American people.”

“… Money printed right out of thin air.”

“(Members of Congress) go along to get along (and) you own it. You own every penny…, every program.”

Ten Earmarks cited in the Congressional Record by US Representative Charles Roy

$156,000	Connecticut: Hartford Gay and Lesbian Health Collective …, self-described as champions of—…—LGBTQIA+ equity and (providing) training on LGBTQ+ cultural competency and accessing healthcare for LGBTQ+youth.
$2 million	Oregon: Clinic (providing) hormone therapy to kids
$850,000	Massachusetts: LGBTQ (gay) senior housing
$400,000	Wisconsin: Briarpatch Youth Services (one of its programs … called ‘Teens like Us: LGBTQIA2S’) and offering “a gender-affirming clothing program for ages 13 to 18.”
$400,000	New Jersey: Garden State Equality Education Fund that helps minors transition genders and promotes biological boys’ playing girls’ sports and (each group) using the same restrooms.
$5 million	Maryland: Mary’s Center for Maternal and Child Care (which includes) transgender procedures…, (serving) as ‘home base’ ‘during the transition process.’
$740,000	Maryland: program to increase of diversity in State hiring
$870,000	Connecticut: group wanting to ‘defund the police’
$655,000	Massachusetts: Women of Color Coalition Inc.

Ignored Worth Mentioning Platform Planks of Contenders

Published Concerns of Four Libertarian Candidates
2024 US Presidential Platform excerpts

CHASE OLIVER

End Wars, Support Peace

My entire adult life our nation has been at war somewhere in the world. I have friends and loved ones who have served, and come home with the visible and invisible scars of combat.

I’ve seen them mourn their brothers and sisters who didn’t come home. I meet more and more anti-war veterans every day, and they know more than anyone about the cost of war.

It is time we focus our foreign policy on Peace.

We should end our policy of sending drones around the world; and instead, foster international goodwill by defending free trade and free markets. Our nation has long had the moniker ‘leader of the free world.’ It is time we earn that distinction by insisting that Peace is the way forward.

End the wars. End the drones. End the policy of constant intervention. It’s easy to drop a bomb; it is much harder to serve as a beacon of Peace. We must take the more difficult but necessary path.

Close all overseas bases and immediately return active-duty personnel to domestic bases. The cost savings of doing so will be used as a one-time contribution to discharge the interest on currently outstanding Federally guaranteed student loans.

End aid being directed to nation-states currently at war. This includes Israel and Ukraine. While we offer moral support to our friends currently engaged with the enemy, we should not be contributing to extending the fight.

With this said, I recognize that there are aggressors and victims in war. I would allow private parties, including defense contractors, to voluntarily contribute funds and sell weapons to our friends without fear of violating any Federal laws.

If asked to act as a mediator, I would more than happily allow America to act as a mediator in negotiating a peace that ends the conflict without rewarding aggressing parties for bad behavior.

CHARLES BALLAY MD

… [M]y stance is one of cautious pragmatism.

It emphasizes diplomacy, multilateral cooperation, and the support of international institutions as the primary means of promoting democratic values and human rights, globally.

I advocate for a foreign policy that is not only informed by past lessons but also guided by a commitment to international peace, stability and respect for the sovereignty of nations.

Our goal should always be to support the conditions in which democracy can flourish, organically, rather than through imposed solutions, military action, and endless financial aid. However, these views… do not abdicate our responsibility to protect our homeland—the priority of our military efforts.

Further notes on issues listed (excerpt)

DEBT: Implement a determined, multi-year initiative to drastically cut the National debt. For the economic future of coming generations, this action is non-negotiable; Fiscal Responsibility Amendment: Champion a Constitutional Amendment mandating fiscal responsibility, ensuring sustained economic health, and preventing irresponsible financial practices in the future. Expenditure Accountability: Take swift action to terminate inefficiencies and waste in federal spending. Dispense with duplicity, redundancy, and unnecessary outlays. The government’s duty is to serve and protect its citizens, not to engage in social engineering.

EDUCATION: Refocus the Department of Education on essential skills. Our youth should be prepared for the challenges and opportunities of tomorrow. Endorse a variety of educational paths. Encourage international educational experiences to produce citizens familiar with global cultures. Promote understanding through immersion.

HEALTH AND WELLBEING: Eliminate fraud: Encourage whistleblower protections and incentivize private-sector solutions to detect and eliminate fraud; Promote transparency in pricing, allowing consumers to make informed decisions; Shift focus to preventative health and wellness, recognizing the long-term benefits of a healthy population; Streamline FDA processes to ensure safety while promoting rapid innovation and patient access.

IMMIGRATION: Harmonized Immigration advocating … an efficient, streamlined, and merit-based immigration system, while ensuring national security; simplify visa procedures, focusing on economic benefits and cultural exchanges. Offer a clear, streamlined path to citizenship for immigrants who contribute positively to the nation.

DEMOCRACY Reaffirmed: Restoration of Public Faith: Advocate for term limits at all levels of federal governance, reducing career politicians and promoting fresh perspectives. https://www.ballay2024.com/issues

JACOB GEORGE HORNBERGER, JR

NATO is a Cold War dinosaur that should have been dismantled at the end of the Cold War.

Instead, the Pentagon has used NATO to reignite its Cold War against Russia, to ensure ever-increasing budgets for the national-security establishment and its army of voracious ‘defense’ contractors who feed at the public trough.

We need to immediately withdraw from NATO and terminate all foreign aid to Ukraine (and every other regime). Our lives, liberty, and well-being depend on it.

The sixty-year-old economic embargo against the Cuban people is another good example of this evil and immoral Republican-Democratic policy.

JACOB GEORGE HORNBERGER, JR.: Texas native, resident of Virginia; veteran US military; practicing attorney, college professor, author, foundation founding president; authorship: Economic Liberty and the Constitution; My Passion for Liberty; The CIA, Terrorism, and the Cold War: The Evil of the National Security State (https://justfacts.votesmart.org/candidate/biography/50952/jacob-hornberger-jr)

Further notes on issues listed (excerpt)

Restore the Republic: Our limited-government republic entailed a relatively small, basic military force and no Pentagon, military-industrial complex, CIA, or NSA. Our American ancestors were fiercely opposed to standing armies because they knew that standing armies, not foreign regimes, were the greatest threat to their freedom and well-being.…

Republicans and Democrats …, [b]y converting the federal government into a national-security state (and) vesting the federal government with omnipotent, totalitarian-like powers— including powers of assassination, torture, mass secret surveillance, and indefinite detention for both foreign and US nationals— … have destroyed (Americans’) rights and liberties.

Democrats and Republicans did not seek or secure a constitutional amendment that authorized the abandonment of a limited-government republic and the conversion to a national-security state. That means that the national-security state is illegitimate under our form of constitutional government.

Democrats and Republican say that the national-security state keeps us safe (when) it is actually the exact opposite.

Through its foreign policy of interventionism, invasions, wars of aggression, occupations, foreign aid, alliances with dictatorial regimes, crises, and coups, the national-security state makes us less safe, especially through terrorist blowback and retaliation.

As our American ancestors clearly understood, a national-security state is the biggest threat to our freedom and well-being.

The restoration of our rights and liberties necessarily depends on the dismantling of the national-security state form of government and the restoration of our founding governmental system of a limited government republic and a small, basic military force. https://www.jacobforliberty.com/positions/

UNRIG

UNRIG OUR ELECTIONS: the two-party dominance means the same old politicians, year after year, and an election system rigged in their favor. The Voters Bill of Rights empowers anyone to run for office, removes barriers to access, and secures our nation’s elections.

“UNRIG THE ECONOMY: Corporations and banks get bailed out while the price of … basic needs goes up.”

UNRIG HEALTHCARE: Insurance companies and politicians take money, while the quality of human care goes down. It’s time to empower everyone to choose their own healthcare, enforce existing transparency laws, and remove regulations hampering the next generation of doctors.

UNRIG CRIMINAL JUSTICE: We have a two-tier justice system that targets victimless crimes while the wealthy get away with (crime). Let’s end the failed federal drug war, eliminate qualified immunity, and bring fairness back to federal courts.

UNRIG GOVERNMENT: (American) politicians have forgotten who they serve. It is time to pass term limits, enforce insider trading bans, and empower (the citizenry) to fight back against corporate money in politics. https://www.lars24.com/unrig

MY Nagging Thought

The qualifications for the Presidency of the United States of America (Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 of the US Constitution) are in effect far fewer than would be required of a house plumber, maid, painter, or construction worker.

• Natural-born citizen of the United States
• Age 35 or older
• US residency of no fewer than 14 years

For such a seriously demanding position open to easy abuse by unprincipled men and women—a position with such enormous reach affecting so many lives, entities and provinces (domestic and global)—more in strict qualifications should be required for fielding, candidacy, election, and seating in the position of US Presidency. The current three invite abuse and as such are themselves almost criminal.

Rights and Duties UNSCRIPTED

The Responsibility of the Citizen to Seat, Preserve and Sustain Good Government. And toward these ends Prepare for and Exercise Independent Choice, Ensuring Governance founded on morally and mentally healthy Qualification.

Republican and Democratic-party belligerence—the same belligerence (inordinate force, physical and verbal violence), violence veiled as “humanitarianism”- “peace”- “democracy” used against peoples, cultures and nations all across the world—has, by means of cash and kickbacks, coercion and corruption, mob-like divide and conquer, redistricting and gerrymandering, all but destroyed any semblance of of-the-people governance and democratic process (“We the People” Union) in the United States of America.

But, with studied examination of a larger pool of registered candidates (beyond the headlines designed or catering to left-right-center-blue-red-purple(s), bookmakers-speculators-gamblers and suckers)—it is possible for the seriously independent-minded American to actualize the self-governing duty of the body politic: Exercise the individual power of the “write-in” VOTE.

There are far more in the 2024 US Presidential Field of Contenders than the one (or two, three or four) touted by the small-minded media and gambling entities.

Ballotpedia has assembled a list of “Registered” 2024 presidential candidates (its latest update March 25, 2024): candidates who filed with the Federal Election Commission of the United States of America (https://www.fec.gov/) to contend for the office of the US Presidency (2024). The information, indicating that further study is necessary in preparation for voting, notes that:

Applicants’ candidate names and party affiliations were copied as entered on the FEC website on the date of candidates’ initial filing with the FEC; and

Some candidates used pen names or pseudonyms.
