The State of Israel seems determined to complete the activities that will ultimately lead to the next “World War.”
They do this through a well-orchestrated series of intellectual and ‘symptomatic’ arguments which totally ignore the “root causes” of their issues. This uncompromising approach usually proudly and completely ignores the wishes, truth and the perspectives of the rest of the world.
Furthermore, the narcissistic logic and rationale of their actions continue to ‘temporarily’ “pull the wool over the eyes” (through media) of most non-critical thinkers and they ‘buy’ off the rest (politicians) with their considerable financial resources.
They continue to utilize the unproveable and self-proclaimed logic of being “God’s chosen people.” It seems more like a delusional generalization of their deserving of ‘special’ treatment and privileges within the greater world. I see it as “special” in the same way “special education” students cannot fit in with the overall population of a school system. Or the way a business person who cannot fit within the overall company organization is given “special projects” until they can “get the hell out!”
The “root cause” of their continuous difficulties is that modern Israel was created by the removal of politically-legitimate occupants (Palestinians) by the bullying forces of the victorious WW-II Allies using archaic and bogus religious justifications. The Palestinians were NOT war criminals, the Germans were!
Maybe I can make my point with a “hypothetical” example which would hit closer to home?
Imagine a time in the future of temporary American weakness when The USA was totally at the mercy of the joint Russian and Chinese ‘forces.’ Let us also say that those forces felt that he United States was responsible for creating the “holocaust” of the Native American Tribal Nations. And, in order to rectify this unfair historical treatment, they put into place the following plan:
The Sino-Russian ‘arbiters’ decreed that the island of Manhattan in New York would heretofore become the new “homeland” for any and all people that contained any racially ‘red’ DNA. All of Manhattan was confiscated for the use by “Indians” and all of the current residents were moved to the boroughs of Brooklyn, Queens, Saten Island and the Bronx.
These new “Manhattanites” were then free to do anything that they wanted with the land, property and buildings. The herds of bison were particular happy in Central Park. Meanwhile, the “bridge & tunnel” people were immediately poor, crowded and existed only to serve at the mercy of their new ‘masters.’ Needless to say that the good folks of Westchester, Rockland and Nassau counties were more than a little bit ‘inconvenienced.’
The new “Manhattanites” were given unlimited supplies of the most modern weaponry as well as an ‘open’ checkbook by their ‘benefactors’ while the “borough people” had to make do with rocks and bottles.
Eventually, people from New Jersey and Connecticut (along with other ‘sympathizers’ from Texas) felt sorry for the displaced borough people who had been oppressed through seemingly no fault of their own. As such, they started to provide mortars, suicide bombs and eventually missiles in order to help the unfairly displaced people win back their island homeland whose occupants now even had nuclear weapons (but wouldn’t admit it).
So, please do not talk about Iran being the “head of the snake.’ It make you sound really ignorant and gullible. You probably are ‘stuck’ in Brooklyn after your deal to purchase the Brooklyn Bridge fell through! The real “head” of the snake was born in 1948 by the biggest ‘miscalculation’ by any country/coalition of nations and the largest territorial blunder in political history.
I am convinced that the Israelis have absolutely no loyalty to anyone but themselves and if a better ‘sucker’ comes along, they would jump ‘allies’ in a New York second. I am not sure what benefit that this so-called ‘ally” provides America other than antagonizing a large part of the world to hate our ‘guts.’ Do we really need them at all? More importantly why do we even want them anymore?
So, I think the time has come to exert more ‘financial’ pressure on them to toe the ‘line’ or maybe face alienation, ostracization, isolation, boycott and maybe even embargo from the Western world.
This is exactly why many people were hesitant for Jewish people to ever have a concentration of their people in their own country/state. There was always a concern that without their people dispersed among other nations, they would eventually make up their own ‘reasons’ to not only ‘rule’ the world by “proxy” but eventually want to ‘conquer’ it physically. If the world got destroyed in the process, oh well, it was for God’s Biblically “chosen’ people and all the rest of the “Gentiles” can be damned since we are only slightly above the animals anyway.
Here’s a Leadership Idea that might put an end to conventional wars and maybe even prevent a nuclear one. Since Iran is so big, the Palestinians are so ‘deserving’ and it is impossible to turn-back-the-clock to1948, why not create a great “homeland” for ALL of the Palestinians (from everywhere in the Middle East) carved out of comparable size and quality land within Iran? As a corollary condition, Israel would have to “stay put.” I’m sure there is more than enough money to induce all parties to make it ‘worthwhile’…..or Else! Unless, of course, the “power merchants” do not really want a solution that is LESS EXPENSIVE and LESS EXPLOSIVE than the current situation?
