''Gaza is a window on
our coming dystopia. The growing divide between the world’s elite and
its miserable masses of humanity is maintained through spiraling
violence. Many impoverished regions of the world, which have fallen off
the economic cliff, are beginning to resemble Gaza, where 1.6 million
Palestinians live in the planet’s largest internment camp. These
sacrifice zones, filled with seas of pitifully poor people trapped in
squalid slums or mud-walled villages, are increasingly hemmed in by
electronic fences, monitored by surveillance cameras and drones and
surrounded by border guards or military units that shoot to kill. These
nightmarish dystopias extend from sub-Saharan Africa to Pakistan to
China. They are places where targeted assassinations are carried out,
where brutal military assaults are pressed against peoples left
defenseless, without an army, navy or air force. All attempts at
resistance, however ineffective, are met with the indiscriminate
slaughter that characterizes modern industrial warfare.''
