Without any surprise to anyone, the United States government, led by President Joe Biden, recently assured that a genocide is not being committed in the Gaza Strip, despite all evidence of an extermination program planned and executed by Israel.

The statements were made by the National Security Advisor, Jake Sullivan, who also insisted that the responsibility for peace in the area fell on the Islamist group Hamas, which is something like blaming the mouse for the cat. want to hunt

However, as I said a few lines ago, there is no surprise because these are statements from representatives of a country that was born, grew and strengthened thanks to openly genocidal behavior, which has never been judged by history.

When there was no nation with that name, in fact, when the continent we inhabit today was not called America, numerous people lived in the great plains of the north in harmony with nature and relative peace among themselves, with culture, religion, well-defined language and customs, until the violent irruption of the Europeans who split this history in two.

To take away their main wealth, their land, they were subjected to extermination programs and even today, several centuries later, they are second-class citizens. Biden and many members of his administration are descendants of those who perpetrated that cruel genocide.

But that was only the beginning because, since the owners of the lands needed labor to work it and extract all its riches, a practice previously unknown here arrived in this part of the world, slavery, on whose blood enormous fortunes were built.

It is still under discussion whether slave exploitation is equated to genocide, but it is clear that both cause the same damage, the same degradation in large human groups,

By the way, the elimination of slavery was not a magnanimous act at all, but rather the confirmation of an irrefutable economic principle: it was much cheaper to convert them into workers with poverty wages and for them to obtain the minimum for their sustenance, clothing and housing. .

Proof of this was that blacks were only legally and socially equal to whites in 1964, a century and a year after the abolition of slavery was decreed in the northern United States.

What is so strange, then, that the Biden government says that there is no genocide in the Gaza Strip? Nothing, absolutely nothing.
