Meerdere arme staten in de zuidelijke Stille Oceaan (of Oceanië) worden door de VS gechanteerd, dit om hun stem te krijgen in de VN als het bijvoorbeeld om Israël gaat. Zo liet het 666 beest Trump weten, dat wanneer een land zich in de VN (en daarbuiten) tegen de VS beslissing keert, om Jeruzalem te erkennen als de hoofdstad van Israël, verdere financiële hulp van de VS vergeten kan worden…… Daar is maar één woord voor te bedenken: chantage!
Zoals je natuurlijk weet, is chantage een strafbaar feit, maar daar heeft Trump schijt aan, hij stelt zich immers onder en boven de (internationale) wet……… (zoals alle presidenten voor hem….)
De eilandstaatjes die zich laten chanteren zijn staten die in de toekomst vanwege de zeespiegelstijging zullen moeten verkassen, let wel een zeespiegelstijging die mede door de VS is veroorzaakt en verder werd en wordt aangejaagd onder de administratie van Obama en nu weer onder Trump……..
Deze staten worden gechanteerd, terwijl ze eerder NB al enorm hebben geleden onder de bovengrondse kernproeven van de VS, Groot-Brittannië en Frankrijk…….. De levensverwachting is in deze staten sterk teruggelopen, na de bevrijding van de Japanse overheersing tijdens WOII, zo vertelde een pater, waar deze aan toevoegde dat dit geen communistische propaganda is, maar werd vastgesteld door het VS ministerie van Buitenlandse Zaken!!
Het is zelfs zo zot, dat deze staten onder druk van de VS tegen het Kyoto klimaatverdrag stemden, terwijl deze staten juist door de klimaatverandering langzaam maar zeker onder water verdwijnen!!
Met andere woorden: deze staten zouden zich uitstekend kunnen identificeren met de Palestijnse bevolking die zo enorm te lijden heeft onder de Israëlische terreur, terreur die door de VS wordt gesteund……. (en door de rest van de westerse landen, ja men durft wel eens wat commentaar te leveren op Israël, maar als de VS en Israël daarna tegen hen tekeer gaan, is het snel afgelopen met de kritiek, hetzelfde geldt ook voor de reguliere westerse [massa-] media…….)

Palestine,
Israel And The US: How The South Pacific Countries Selling Their UN
Votes
By
Andre Vltchek
January
19, 2018 “Information
Clearing House” – Here it goes again! Several
countries of Oceania (also known as South Pacific Nations), or
however you want to call that vast, beautiful but thoroughly
devastated part of the world, have voted “for Israel”, “for the
United States’ proposed resolution at the United Nations”, and
therefore, “against Palestine”.
As
reported on December 22, 2017 by Al Jazeera:
“The
United Nations General Assembly has voted by a huge majority to
declare a unilateral US recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital
“null and void”.
At
an emergency session of the General Assembly on Thursday, 128
countries voted in favour of a resolution rejecting US President
Donald Trump’s controversial decision on December 6.
Nine
countries voted against, while 35 abstained.
Trump
had earlier threatened to cut aid to UN members who would
vote against his decision.”
Did
scarcely inhabited island-nations that are lost in the middle of a
tremendous body of water, go crazy?
After
all those horrific nuclear experiments committed there, against their
people, by the United States, France and the UK; could local people
sincerely believe that the truth as seen from Washington is the only
legitimate truth on Earth?
After
the naked modern-day colonialism, which is being implemented by
Australia, New Zealand, and France, and, of course, by the United
States, have the people of Polynesia, Melanesia and Micronesia become
blind?
After
total dependency, after decades of humiliation and virtual slavery,
do the inhabitants of Oceania believe that their fellow victims in
Palestine do not have the right to live in their own state, without
barbed wire; that they shouldn’t have their own historical capital?
The
answer to all these question is, actually: “No”.
They
do what they are doing simply and only because they have no choice.
When
working on my book. Oceania,
travelling all over the South Pacific, I visited a Jesuit priest and
the region’s prominent intellectual, Francis X. Hezel. Our
encounter took place in the capital of the Federated States of
Micronesia (FSM) – Pohnpei.
Father
Hezel has been amassing important materials and documents in his
private archive, proving beyond any doubts that the US occupation of
Micronesia after WWII led to a dramatic decrease of life expectancy
and the standard of living of the islanders. He explained:
“Life
here became shorter, and much worse than under the Japanese imperial
rule. And this was not some ‘Communist propaganda’. It is written
right here, in the report produced during that period by the US
Department of State.”
But
back to ‘voting’, or what is often called “vote selling”.
Father Hezel offered a very explicit story to illustrate the reality:
“One
day I had an entire television crew from Israel parked at my office.
I had no idea what they were doing here. Why would they travel so
far, to such a small and insignificant country? Finally I understood:
the Israeli public was fascinated with this place; they wanted to
know who are those people who keep voting in the U.N. against most of
Security Council resolutions, in this way supporting Israel and the
United States against the entire world…”
In
my book Oceania, I later wrote:
“Pacific
Island votes at the UN are openly for sale, especially when peace in
the Middle East is at stake. To illustrate the absurdity of the game:
at a time when several countries in the region are becoming
uninhabitable as a result of global warming, both Nauru and Kiribati,
itself one of the sinking nations and therefore a victim, voted
against the Kyoto Protocol.
But
it is not only profit that propels tiny nations in Oceania to sell
their votes; it is also the fear of retribution.
“In
the late 90’s our government voted at the UN against the US on the
issue of landmines, recalled the then Foreign Minister of Marshall
Islands (RMI), Tony deBrum. “As a result, our party lost the
elections.””
In
December 2017, out of the nine countries that voted against the UN
resolution, one was the United States itself, while the other eight
were: Guatemala, Honduras, Israel, Marshall Islands, FSM, Nauru,
Palau, and Togo. Two were de factoUS semi-colonies in
Latin America, ruled by brutal pro-Washington cliques, one a tiny and
dependent African nation, while four were the Micronesian and
Polynesian nations and of course, Israel.
The
Pacific Island nations are selling their votes, for profit or out of
fear.
The
West is also using them in an attempt to isolate China.
Presently,
six countries of Oceania, have fully established diplomatic relations
with Taiwan, after being, as was described to me by the former
Foreign Minister of RMI, Tony deBrum, “encouraged” by the West.
These
countries are: Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Palau, Solomon
Islands, and Tuvalu.
At
least three of them – Tuvalu, Marshall Islands and Kiribati – are
at the frontline of the climate change disaster: they are becoming
uninhabitable due to the global warming and consequent rising of sea
level.
China
is the only country that has been willing to, altruistically, help
the countries of Oceania: by building anti-tsunami walls, by planting
mangroves, by elevating schools, hospitals and government buildings,
or by building sports facilities in places where around 90% of adults
is suffering from diabetes, often due to dumping there some of the
most unhealthy food from the US, Australia and elsewhere.
The
more successful China got in helping South Pacific nations, the more
‘encouragement’ Taiwan received from the West; an ‘encouragement’
to come, to corrupt local ‘elites’, and to push China away. Any
country that recognizes Taiwan as an independent nation gets
diplomatic relations with China (PRC) broken immediately. Everyone
knows it. And there is not one Western country that would take such
an insane step.
After
China leaves, the countries of Oceania can only rely on the pathetic,
cynical and hypocritical “foreign aid” offered by the West, while
their corrupt leaders negotiate with New Zealand and Australia the
final ‘evacuation project’. Entire countries like Tuvalu may soon
be forced to move abroad.
The
selling of votes by South Pacific Island nations appears to be
shameful, but in fact it is nothing else than an act of total
desperation.
The
Empire has reached great mastery in implementing the “divide and
rule” strategy.
The
victims, often defenseless and robbed of everything, are forced to
vote against those who are suffering similar fate at the opposite
side of the world.
Palestinians
are involuntarily living in a cage.
People
of Oceania, who used to be the greatest seamen, are surrounded by the
vastest expanse of water on Earth, but in the same time they are
confined to tiny specks of land, often scarred by Western military
bases. Trash and decay are everywhere. Hopelessness rules.
Oceania
knows almost nothing about ‘modern Palestine’. Palestinians know
almost nothing about Oceania.
Empire
looks dumb but it is not. It is ‘only’ evil. It knows everything
about both parts of the world. And it is torturing them relentlessly
and with perverse sadistic delight.
