THERE WAS NO FORGIVENESS FOR GAZA CHILDREN.

Insulting leniency no longer in front of US prosecutors, where jails are full of poor, but in front of innocent Gaza children torn apart or dead. For them there was no forgiveness, nor will there be. Capital has no feelings, only interests.

THERE WAS NO FORGIVENESS FOR GAZA CHILDREN

Omar Carreón Abud

It turns out that Robert Hunter Biden, the second son of the first wife of the United States President Joseph Biden, was charged with multiple crimes related to the purchase and possession of firearms, as well as evasion in mandatory payment of his taxes. In June of last year, Hunter Biden was convicted of lying in filling out a federal form when he purchased a gun in 2018, under oath, falsely declared he was not a drug user, and months later pleaded guilty to having instrumental an illegal scheme to avoid pay at least 1 million 400 dollars in taxes, the equivalent to almost 29 million Mexican pesos.

The prosecutors who accused him argued that the president’s son lived luxuriously while defying tax law, spent money on strippers, which can well be understood as an understatement of prostitution services, and that he stayed in luxury hotels. Both cases took place during a period in the life of mentality Hunter Biden, in which he himself has admitted that he was immersed in drug and alcohol abuse before becoming sober in the year 2019. The tax evasion allegations entailed sentences of up to 17 years behind bars and gun charges deserved up to 25 years in prison.

Now, his father, Joseph Biden, as it is said, no less than the President of the United States, foreseeing the political harm that he would incur to make use of the privileges he had to pardon crimes and suspend legal processes precisely in the person of his own son and in front of the eyes of hundreds of thousands of Americans who were not only being prosecuted but whose daily incarceration population increased, had been publicly and solemnly promising that he would not pardon his own son.

“I am extremely proud of my son Hunter. He has overcome an addiction. He is one of the most brilliant and decent men I know,” he told reporters without blushing in early summer 2024 and added definitively: “I adhere to the jury’s decision. I will do that and I will not forgive it.” But -things of life – on Sunday, December 1, 2024 when his party had lost the presidential election to Donald Trump, and the date was approaching in which the sentence corresponding to crimes was expected to be dictated, in front of the stupor of the world, the he has set off.

They say comparisons are hateful. But “hateful” is a moral expression and there is no morality on the margin of dividing society into antagonistic classes, so to consider comparisons “hateful” to be considered comparisons is a dirty subterfuge to expel them from the scientific method that accepts them and uses millions of times a day. To him I adhere, driven by the behavior of President Joseph Robinet Biden, a lofty and unquestionable representative of the class that dominates the world and, without the permission of reactionary moralists, I compare him with the imposing congruence of a human being who gave his life to combat the theft of working time and the heinous abuse and injustice that have always accompanied it. Another individual who, considering the power of the ruling classes to create, not only opinion, but firm public conviction, has been slandered and vituperated without brake or measure. Did he use his influence and power to benefit his son by going above the suffering of many other human beings?

José Stalin. For many, much more than a monster, even for some of his old peers like Nikita Jruschov, but who, in reality, still awaits a fair and definitive evaluation, without scorn or prejudice. It should be known that like any neighbor’s son (and here we understand the expression very well), the Secretary General of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, dismissed his son who was going to defend his homeland from the dreadful Nazi horde in World War II, Yakov Dzhugashvili, who was to the front as one more Red Army Commander and as known, only told him to go and fight.
It is also a historical truth that Yákov fell prisoner in 1941, a few months after the war began and that, after the Battle of Stalingrad (which ended in February 1943), the Germans used the mediation of Count Folke Bernadotte and the Red Cross to offer Stalin the exchange of his son for Field Marshal Friedrich Paulus and dozens of high-ranking officers of the 6th Army who were held captive in the Soviet Union. The stark truth is that the Secretary-General’s answer has not been documented, but there are those who claim that he said: “I will not trade a soldier for a field marshal.” True or false the expression, it is unobjective that Jose Stalin, did not seize the opportunity to save his son, both because the Germans had made him known immediately to the whole world, and because Yákov Dzhugashvili, was shot dead at the Sachsenhausen concentration camp in Oranienburg, Germany, on April 14, 1943, shortly after the proposed exchange.

But not only did the prosecutors run over by the United States law with the pardon of the president’s son by the president, the world must always keep in mind that the Palestinian population is being massacred with the money, weapons and political protection of the United States, You include women and children and it must be understood that the legal technicism “genocide” is not enough to describe and make the world feel that, worth the redundancy, indescribable suffering. Reader friend: New Year’s holidays just passed did you have the ugly chance to see how a little one was terrified by the bang of a small, cheap, “pigeon” of a few pesos? Try now to imagine the horror, the impact forever that the bombs that leave destroyed and dead bodies in the Gaza Strip cause to a person of the same age.

Already by October, according to data from the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip, on the one year anniversary of the Israeli aggression, 41 thousand 909 Palestinians had died, most of them women and children and more than 97 thousand were injured. Nearly two million had been forced to leave their homes and more than 215,000 buildings, more than 84 per cent of health centres, 67 per cent of water and sanitation facilities and 510 kilometres of power grid were destroyed.

We have to take very into account, finally, what the Secretary General of the UN, Antonio Guterres, who in a note of the last December 3 published in La Jornada, called “the situation in the Gaza Strip is terrible and apocalyptic, warned that the conditions facing the Palestinians on the territory they can constitute international crimes of the most serious… that “the catastrophe is nothing but the total sinking of our humanity… malnutrition is rampant and famine is imminent… the health system has collapsed” and finally that “the Palestinian enclave now has the largest number of amputee children in the world, with many losing limbs and undergoing surgeries without even anesthesia.” Yes, you read that right, “most number of amputee children in the world”; to go crazy.

Joseph Biden’s extensive paternal pardon, with the enjoyment of the presidential inauguration, not only avoided convictions to his son, Hunter Biden, in two cases in the state of Delaware and California, but also -beware – any other “crime against the United States that he has committed or can have committed or participated in during the period from January 1, 2014 to December 1, 2024”. Amazing. Insulting leniency no longer in front of US prosecutors, where jails are full of poor, but in front of innocent Gaza children torn apart or dead. For them there was no forgiveness, nor will there be. Capital has no feelings, only interests.
