Today, we must, per our <em>duty<\/em> as world citizens and stewards of proper conscience, call out&#8230;nay&#8230;march for\u2026freedom for Palestine and the eradication of Zionism in all its forms.<\/p>\n<p>There is little doubt that Hamas made a huge miscalculation. It assumed that worldwide public outrage at Israel&#8217;s all-too-expected overreaction would have stopped the carnage long ago. While this <em>might<\/em> have come true, Hamas sadly misjudged the moral estoppel of Israeli purchasing power on almost all politicians. There is equal blood on the hands of these political minions who ignored the will of the moral world and instead performed a far different national obligation.<\/p>\n<p><em>Genocidal Fellatio.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yes, if it were up to the moral world the War would have stopped, Gaza would be a nation, and Israel would be as isolated as a West Bank water tank, with Netanyahu and his War Cabinet collectively dangling from lampposts in Mussolini-like fashion at the Hague.<\/p>\n<p>Must I list here the worldwide volley of political prostitution from every <em>\u201cwestern\u201d<\/em> nation on Earth? A daily assault on morals and mind. And to the <em>Constant<\/em>. Must we ask the question:<\/p>\n<p>Who controls these <em>Bastards of Zion<\/em> so easily- and obviously- in the face of our <em>First Rule of Democracy?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This answer has only further served to articulate the epiphany for all <em>Palestinians<\/em> as to the epicenter of all the world\u2019s evils.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, every day we receive more news of further war crimes by Israel from excellent independent journalists whose flaming keyboards continue pulling on the heartstrings and the morals of man. Yet, we among those journalists are guilty of inaction, for our efforts are merely reactive. Not the proactive call to arms, thus required.<\/p>\n<p>To focus otherwise is futile.<\/p>\n<p>Now, before the FBI drops a flash bang through my living room window, kicks in my door, shoots my dogs, and riddles my unarmed, lifeless body with bullets; all before being fully exonerated, it must be made clear that advocacy of <em>The First Rule of Democracy<\/em> is by definition expressly non-violent. Here, violence is unnecessary. The power lies in sheer numbers. Yes, but those numbers must include&#8230;<em>you!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>As I have documented previously, twice, when used correctly, <em>The First Rule,<\/em>when backed up by those who understand well <em>The Constant<\/em>, will fight a war as a force that will, by sheer numbers, carry the day.<\/p>\n<p>And the mind.<\/p>\n<p>I have seen it. As documented in several previous articles, on a crystal clear Los Angeles dawn, after some 20 hours on a knife\u2019s edge of an orgy of potential police violence I saw and I heard <em>that<\/em> cheer (one I will never forget) as 7000 non-violent occupiers of LA City Hall grounds, forced, yes, forced, some 1700 rabidly salivating cops to finally\u2026take that very first&#8230;all important, one step&#8230; <em>backwards<\/em>.

The sweetest, trumpeted sound called, <em>\u201cvictory!<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The students of the <em>University of California\/ San Diego<\/em> thrilled to this same epiphany this past May. Confronted with a similar, albeit smaller, contingent of said rabid cops, the word went out across the previously closed campus like wildfire. The students poured onto to the pathways, joining their threatened brethren. The result\u2026<\/p>\n<p>All those cops were forced to take shelter in two buildings and call for backup. These students, by sheer numbers- the <em>First Rule<\/em>&#8211; forced these mental mercenaries to take <em>their<\/em> minds and go <em>fucking<\/em> home.<\/p>\n<p>A victory for the Students. A victory for the <em>Constant.<\/em> A victory of the <em>First Rule.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>But their cheer <em>that<\/em> day sent chills up my spine as I well remembered that previous morning at LA City Hall all too long ago.

It is important to note that The First Rule is expressly non-violent. It must be in order to garner widespread support for its cause. For we, like <em>Hamas, Hizbullah, Houthis<\/em> and all soldiers of morality must always rise above our adversaries so that our call for <em>Freedom<\/em> can be heard and embraced far and wide by all.<\/p>\n<p>First, we must show ourselves, daily.
