Pan-Africanist Malcolm X once said, 'And, when I speak, I don't speak as a Democrat or a Republican nor an American. I speak as a victim of America's so-called democracy. You and I have never seen democracy. All we've seen is hypocrisy.'
US National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby perhaps epitomises the hypocrisy of the United States' so-called democracy. These two clips, just days apart from each other after the 7 October escalation in the 75-year Israeli occupation of Palestine, make that clear. On 9 October, Kirby appeared upset and unable to speak fluidly in discussing the deaths of US and Israeli citizens. But on 24 October, Kirby excused Israel's military killing Palestinians using US weaponry.
We have seen these double standards as US officials change their tone when discussing the loss of life among the global majority, as if our deaths were merely collateral damage or business as usual. Yet, tears flow when it comes to the lives of allies or whiter individuals.
