It is no secret that the United States of America is a nation well practiced in political (imperialist?) passive aggression, and that is when its leaders feel like they have something to lose. On the other hand, when they perceive no potential loss, we might as well say our parting words to “passive.” It’s all out strong-arming via the gun or via the money. The latter is doubtlessly the case in the latest funding cut to UNESCO. This one is easy to follow.
The USA and Israel are like “bench and batty” although I am uncertain which one is which at this time.
Israel is the geographical epicenter for Jewish people. The USA might be considered the financial epicenter for Jewish people.
Present day Palestine is apparently the subject of blatant mistreatment from Israel, some of whose citizens are basically settling on Palestinian land. Military force is involved.
The Palestinians are determined to assert their human rights and are making an aggressive push for freedom. This includes requesting official recognition of their statehood from the various arms of the United Nations. Israel doesn’t like this. The USA doesn’t like this.
The USA can easily block Palestinian access to the UN Security Council among others. For those more difficult to prevent, the USA threatens to stop providing money for their programs. This was the case with UNESCO, the agency that is responsible for promoting international collaboration through cultural education, among other things.
UNESCO decided to have a backbone and Palestine was admitted to its body. This happened about one week ago.
The very same day, the USA promptly announced that it would pay no further monies to UNESCO after this year, knowing well that its contribution accounts for something like one-fifth of that agency’s budget.
All of this interests me, not because I particularly care for the political squabbles that are abundant on the planet, not because I have any problem with any people, whether Jewish, US-American or otherwise. The reason why it interests me so much, and also evokes laughter, is because it is abundantly clear that this hasty move by the USA shows the disregard its leaders have for the field of culture. Culture is a sacrificial lamb, a card to be played in their game. It is something very easy to underestimate when focused on a war machine such as the one based largely in the USA.
To their dismay, they will eventually identify and recognize the mentality that led to this horrendous decision as their ultimate downfall; and it might be too late to redeem their political dominance (empire?) when they finally come to this realization.
That is all I have to say. LOVEwise.
