Dear Readers, June is upon us, and it is time for my quarterly request for your support of the information provided you on this website. I would appreciate a show of appreciation for the risks I take in order to inform you. Consider, for example, “Has Trump Committed High Treason?” No one else has dared to touch this serious issue.
My time and energy have alternative uses. If readers do not appreciate my efforts, there are more enjoyable things I can do.
Possibly my 45 years of fame are over and it is time for me to depart the scene. The answer is in your support. https://grokipedia.com/page/Paul_Craig_Roberts

Israel’s Annexation of the Middle East, Stalled in Iran, Moves rapidly ahead in Palestine and Lebanon.
Paul Craig Roberts
A War Criminal Admitting to His Crimes, Netanyahu Says He Ordered Israeli Military to Seize 70% of Gaza, Trump’s Ceasefire Be Damned. His audience demanded 100%. Netanyahu said, yes 100%, but in stages.
Israeli Minister Ben-Gvir Says Israel ‘Will Not Allow’ Trump to Make a Peace Deal With Iran because the Zionist agenda “is an endless and wide regional war” to achieve Greater Israel.
The piecemeal absorption of Palestine into Israel that has been going on since 1947 (see map) is now rapidly moving to conclusion. Trump’s “Gaza Peace Board” to which utterly stupid governments each paid $1 billion to join and Trump’s fake “Ceasefire” were the cover for the completion of Israel’s total genocide of Palestine by incorporating all of Palestine into Israel. Ever since the bought-and-paid-for British gave a small part of Palestine to Israel, Israel has been at work taking the rest of it. Palestine was destroyed not only by the Zionist Israelis but also by the British and Americans, whose despicable and immoral bought-and-paid-for governments opened the path to the genocide of the Palestinian people. The West hid the devouring of Palestine under the “two state solution.”
Greater Israel moves forward. The Israel-Palestine News reports: “During a conference at the Ein Prat pre-military academy in an illegal Israeli settlement in the occupied West Bank, Netanyahu acknowledged that Israel has gradually expanded its control over Gaza since the ceasefire agreement was implemented.” What Netanyahu actually did was boast, not acknowledge, but all statements about Israel must be understated, and Israel’s explanations must be accepted as factual, such as Netanyahu’s excuse for annexing Palestine — “tightening the grip on Hamas.”
As I reported, Trump deceived Americans that his Gaza Peace Board and Ceasefire were real when they were nothing but another Israeli-American deception to cloak Israel’s annexation of Palestine.
The Israel-Palestine News reports that “Israel’s far-right settler movement—represented in the Netanyahu government by figures like Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich (in addition to Netanyahu)—speaks openly about ethnically cleansing Gaza and Lebanon of their residents to make way for permanent Israeli settlers, in a similar fashion to the intensifying annexation of the West Bank. On Wednesday, Defense Minister Israel Katz said that Israel was pushing for the mass “voluntary migration” of Palestinians from Gaza and said the government would implement a plan for it “at the right time and in the right manner.”
It is too much for even some Israeli agents to stomach. Ilan Goldberg, the senior vice president of the pro-Israel lobbying group JStreet, called the annexation of Gaza and the West Bank “a blatant violation of the ceasefire and clear undermining of any plan for post-conflict Gaza.” So we now have an Israeli lobbing agent guilty of Anti-Semitism.
“Owen Jones, a British journalist, lamented the lack of coverage of the slow-motion ethnic cleansing in the Western press. Israel doesn’t try to hide its crimes. It broadcasts them to the world, knowing it has impunity,” he said on Thursday. “Netanyahu boasts of annexing Gaza. Yesterday, his defense minister said the plan was to remove Gaza’s population. No front page headlines. No Western denunciations.”
Netanyahu is an advocate of Greater Israel, the name of Israel’s Zionist agenda to incorporate all of the Middle East into Israel. The Zionist Agenda has met with opposition in Iran and is stalled by Iran’s resistance. But the Zionist takeover of the Middle East moves ahead in Lebanon. On May 27 Netanyahu gave orders to the Israeli military to forcibly evacuate 200,000 residents in southern Lebanon as Israel intends to incorporate Lebanon into Israel. Despite Trump’s cease fire, Israel Palestine-News reports that “Israel has systematically razed villages across southern Lebanon since the beginning of March, gradually pushing northward to the point where it now effectively controls about a fifth of the country’s territory.”
Israel’s current invasion of Lebanon is, I believe, the third. The prior two Israeli attempts were repulsed by the Hezbollah militia. But prior to the current attempt, Israel managed to have Hezbollah’s entire leadership provided with cell phones that were in fact explosive devices that Israel could program to explode, and most Hezbollah leaders were killed, reducing the effectiveness of the militia. Additionally, Washington with Putin’s acceptance destroyed Syria for Israel, thereby making Iran’s ability to keep Hezbollah armed and financed extremely difficult as approaches were blocked by the Israeli-American occupation of what once was Syria.
Now Iran itself is being led down the garden path of “negotiations.” In truth, Iran has nothing to negotiate and nothing to gain. How can Iran possibly trust Washington and the Israelis? Negotiations will be used in order to improve US and Israeli defenses against Iranian missiles and to use “world opinion” to pressure Iran into an agreement that will serve Iran badly. Iran should be showing signs of strength and resolution. Negotiation is a sign of weakness and lack of confidence. Iran had the war won and then, incredibly, agreed to stop short of victory and negotiate. Negotiate what? Most likely, the Iranians’ decision to forego victory was in response to the advice of Putin-the-Pusillanimous.
If the Iranians are listening to Putin, who has been unable to bring to a victorious conclusion a minor conflict with Ukraine now in its fifth year, Iran is doomed, and the Middle East will belong to Israel. To deliver the Middle East to Israel is the principal foreign policy agenda of Donald Trump and the Republican Congress.
