That so-called Western liberalism has, from day one, viewed the world from its narrow racist Weltanschauung, where the basic rule has always been freedom for me, but not for thee, and that far-right Tommy Robinson of today is essentially a typical liberal from a hundred years ago, something like Churchill from the beginning of his political career.
At least this situation around Gaza in the past almost two months has shown everyone that all the differences in the West between the so-called liberalism à la the Guardian and some other so-called less liberal political options are mere cosmetics and nothing more. Why…?! Because the West views Israel as its colonial outpost, and Jews as part of the basic fabric of Western society itself, while dark-skinned Muslims, and Islam itself after all, are a foreign body that must be subjugated in every way, or as John Stuart Mill wrote so “beautifully” a hundred and fifty years ago…
In the next place, nations which are still barbarous have not got beyond the period during which it is likely to be for their benefit that they should be conquered and held in subjection by foreigners.
That sentence is practically the cornerstone of so-called Western liberalism, and if you don’t know it, or rather don’t understand it, then any further discussion is pointless…
