I will admit the support from fundamentalist Christians is a bit queer isn't it? I know some of them, like the Salvation Army folks, really believe that Jews are "the chosen". And as a big-time SA elder I once knew used to say, "The only way into heaven is on the coat-tails of a Jew." But I will agree that most of the support from US Christians is political, which I suppose is a shame. Just please don't leave out all the non-end timer American Jews who are providing financial aid and moral support to their Israeli brethren. But y'know speaking of "sick of it"...the whole world has been sick of Jews and done it's best to rid itself of Jews in one way or another going back way further than 1946. The 3rd Century BCE in Egypt was a long time ago. So non-Jew humans have had plenty of time to refine their animosity. Typically because Jews have historically been resistant to accept the religious and social standard of whichever predominant culture they were stuck in. Humans don't like that shit much, y'know? Witness the Alexandria slaughter in 38 CE, the Spanish Inquisition, and of course the Holocaust. But what the heck...you want the benefit of being a Jew you gotta accept all that goes with it. And finally the Jews are handed a place of their own so that the rest of the world doesn't have to deal with so many of them anymore (you must know that's what the partition of Israel was really all about)...and, of course nobody likes that either. "Oy vey ist mir.", as uncle Abe used to say. |

Meanwhile in the 21st Century; Witness the fact that others are being forced to pay to protect Israel, send their kids into war to protect Israel and that Israel doesn't really do much of any fucking thing for the rest of the world. It's actually pretty damn brilliant, really. We even gave them their own country. The main thing I have always admired about Jews; In no small part, they really are highly intelligent, driven people. The will to survive and thrive no matter how much it costs us or how many of our soldiers must give their lives, is nothing short of breathtaking. ;) Dave |

But outside of that little issue...I'm feeling just all warm and fuzzy about your post.:) |
Why was Bibi in DC, not long ago, bleating for "support" from the US Congress? Because, he knows Israel would never survive on it's own. So, our religious fanatics had to be reminded of every reason why seeking a peaceful solution with Iran's religious fanatics is such a bad idea.
Iran hates Israel. Israel knows they are surrounded by insane people who will probably side with Iran if the shit hits the fan. Irani religious zealots hate America because our religious zealots and our idiot government support Israel. Bibi runs to his big brother and begs him to protect him from the bullies. Here we have it; ANY attempt at defusing the situation peacefully is out of the question, straight out of the gate. Read Bibis book, Fighting Terrorism. The man has as much intention to peacefully coexist as the Ayatollahs do. What does that leave? Just look at the American idiots calling for war. The End Times. Armageddon. Whatever you want to call their insane quest to facilitate the alleged return of Christ. Israel is a lightning rod for perpetual shitstorms in the Middle East, that the United Nations erected and we support. Other countries contribute very little or nothing at all because they see it for the pointless pain in the ass that it is. If you don't see it, it's because you don't want to, or maybe you do, but don't care because it serves your personal religious/emotional purposes? To me, it's not worth fighting for. If you prop up your tent in the middle of a busy freeway and you get run over, you are an idiot. If you expect others spend money and/or risk their live to come to your rescue, you are an asshole. People who hold up a lightning rod, then bitch when they get struck, deserve what they just got. Dave |
