Former UK Ambassador Nails Western Governments as Totalitarian Hypocrites

Eric Zuesse

Craig Murray is a former British Ambassador whose blog is one of the highlights of the entire Web, for the brilliance with which he regularly exposes the governmental moral rot throughout the U.S./UK empire.  And here is a good example of it:

——

THE END OF WESTERN PLURALIST DEMOCRACY

1 September 2024

No major western leader is ever again going to be able to speak about human rights or ethical values, without attracting howls of derision. They are turning on their own people in order to prevent protest at a genocide they actively support.

Keir Starmer stepped up the pressure on opponents of Zionist genocide on Thursday with the arrest of journalist Sarah Wilkinson and the charging of activist Richard Barnard, both under the draconian Section 12 of the Terrorism Act which carries a sentence of up to 14 years in prison.

The UK MSM has of course ignored these, but is universally carrying outrage at the conviction of two Hong Kong activists for sedition, which carries a maximum sentence of … 2 years.

But they tell us it is China and not the UK which is the authoritarian dictatorship.

(To be plain, I do view the Hong Kong convictions as also an unwarranted interference with free speech. I merely point out the incredible hypocrisy of the British Establishment and far worse laws here).

Richard Barnard has been charged and will face trial, apparently related to public speeches supporting the Palestinian right to armed resistance.

Sarah Wilkinson was released on bail after about 14 hours. Like the recent arrest and bailing of Richard Medhurst, the arrest and bailing is a device to chill her reporting and activism.

The harassment of dissident journalists at ports, using the extensive powers of the Terrorism Act for questioning and confiscation of communications equipment, has become routine. I myself suffered detention, interrogation and confiscation of equipment for “terrorism” last October.

But the Sarah Wilkinson case is an escalation, in that this is a raid on a journalist whose home was invaded by 16 policemen at 7.30am, while she was arrested and taken to the police station as her home was comprehensively turned over, presumably looking for gunmen under the bed.

"Antiwar feeling was widespread, and demonstrations were commonplace. In 1932, a mile-long motorcade delivered a petition for peace to President Herbert Hoover. In 1935, fifty thousand veterans marched in Washington for peace. Roy Kepler, who with his brother would refuse to fight in World War II, would recall the antiwar attitudes of schoolteachers when he was a boy in the Denver public schools. U.S. publishers issued seven full-length biographies of the great Quaker William Penn between 1929 and 1938, and that year a proposed constitutional amendment requiring a referendum before going to war (absent foreign invasion) reached the House floor. Gallup found 73 percent of Americans in favor. Roosevelt had all he could do to defeat the measure.

Campuses were hotbeds of pacifism, and student newspapers regularly inveighed against involvement in the new war. Cornell undergraduates sent the president a dummy tank with a plea to keep the nation out of the fighting. At Princeton, students organized Veterans of Future Wars to sarcastically demand veterans’ bonuses before being killed in battle. The joke quickly went viral, in the argot of a later time, with chapters springing up on many campuses. In 1936, two hundred members of Columbia’s mock-VFW marched down upper Broadway, followed by Barnard students dressed as nurses and widows—complete with dolls serving as war orphans. Vassar girls talked about forming an “Association of Gold Star Mothers of the Veterans of Future Wars” in advance of presumed casualties.

At the University of Minnesota, the experience of future CBS legend Eric Sevareid foreshadowed the antiwar student activism of the generation to come, albeit in a life made more tenuous by the Depression. In addition to attending classes and working at the student newspaper, Sevareid had to get up at 5:00 a.m. to toil in the campus post office. He needed the money. Conservative fraternities had long ruled the roost at Minnesota, but Sevareid was part of a group of agitators calling themselves the Jacobins, who took their studies seriously, pressed for change, and had learned to hate the Great War. “We felt ashamed,” he recalled in his memoir, “ashamed for our fathers and uncles.”

We were revolted by the stories of the mass hysteria of 1917, the beating of German saloonkeepers, the weird spy hunts, the stoning of pacifists, the arrests of conscientious objectors. As enlightened scholars, we considered that the professors of 1917 had degraded themselves and their sacred function by inventing preposterous theories about the essential depravity of the German race, the worthlessness of their art, and the hidden evil of their music. We refused to believe that war was the responsibility of Germany or any single country.

The Jacobins managed to end compulsory military training at Minnesota and, along with a raucous throng of fellow students, embraced an American version of the Oxford Pledge, whose adoption in Britain had caused a sensation. On February 9, 1933, little more than a week after Hitler became Germany’s chancellor, the venerable Oxford Union debating society voted 275 to 153 for the motion “that this House will in no circumstance fight for its King and Country.” An American student named Dean Rusk, who would one day serve John Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson as secretary of state, happened to be present, and the event left a lasting impression on him. Just as the students of the thirties saw events through the lens of the Great War, Rusk’s generation would see Vietnam through the lens of appeasement. The Oxford Pledge soon jumped the pond and spread like measles among heavily pacifist students in the United States.

Antiwar students made further headlines with a strike against war on April 13, 1934, when 25,000 walked out, mostly in New York. The following year, when the strike went truly national, 175,000 walked out, demanding funding for “schools, not battleships” and an end to military training. By 1936, writes Robert Cohen, “some 500,000 students, almost half the national undergraduate population, participated in the event, rallying against both war and compulsory ROTC.” Student strikers enjoyed the public support of Albert Einstein, who had dodged the draft as a teenager in Germany and later came to the U.S. in flight from the Nazis (for whom he was to make an exception to his lifelong pacifism).

Over 100 pro-Palestinian protesters arrested from New York's Columbia campus

April 18 (Reuters) - More than 100 pro-Palestinian protesters were arrested on Thursday on the campus of Columbia University after its president authorized New York police to clear an encampment set up by students demonstrating against Israel's actions in Gaza. Columbia University President Nemat Minouche Shafik, who a day earlier came under fire from Republicans at a House of Representatives committee hearing on antisemitism on campus, said she had authorized police to clear an encampment of dozens of tents set up by protesters on Wednesday morning. "Out of an abundance of concern for the safety of Columbia’s campus, I authorized the New York Police Department to begin clearing the encampment ... " Shafik said in a statement. Shafik said the protesters had violated the school's rules and policies against holding unauthorized demonstrations, and were unwilling to engage with administrators. New York City Mayor Eric Adams said police made over 108 arrests without violence or injuries. Police said the arrests were related to trespassing. Columbia said it had started to suspend students who had participated in the tent encampment, considered an unauthorized protest. "We are continuing to identify them and will be sending out formal notifications," a university spokesperson said by email. At least three students - Isra Hirsi, Maryam Iqbal, and Soph Dinu - have received suspension notices from Barnard College, an affiliate of Columbia, for participating in the encampment, the pro-Palestinian advocacy group Institute for Middle East Understanding said. Hirsi is the daughter of U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar, who had expressed support for protesters during the hearing at which Shafik testified on Wednesday. "Those of us in Gaza solidarity encampment will not be intimidated," Hirsi said on social media after being suspended. The clash, reminiscent of the demonstrations against the Vietnam War at Columbia more than 50 years ago, is the latest in a series of demonstrations disrupting university campuses, bridges and airports since the latest escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict began on Oct. 7.
