Censure Israel???

Some might say that the Israeli IDF committed piracy and murder in international waters followed by cries of “we, poor we, were attacked, ambushed, lynched even, by terrorists with sticks and stones!!!”.


But, what can the U.S. say? Can we call this state-sponsored terrorism? The Israeli commandos dropped from U.S.-supplied Blackhawk helicopters, and the U.S. does not sell arms to terrorists. Ipso facto – this was not state sponsored terrorism. Terrorist, by definition, are the people we and Israel kill.

What can we say about their war crimes, as detailed in the Goldstone report, in attacking Gaza 2 days after Christmas in 2008. The U.S. did not speak out against this action and blocked U.N. Security Council action. And looking at it logically, we can point out that the Israeli war on the Gaza civilian population was really not so bad at all compared to what we, the U.S., did in Fallujah.

What can we say about their illegal blockade of Gaza? Again, the U.S. has strongly supported this action. And again, imprisoning close to 2 million people in concentration-camp-like-conditions is not really bad at all, as war crimes go, compared to our illegal war of aggression on Iraq, based on a pack of lies, which killed millions. As most would agree, imprisonment is vastly more humane than killing.

So why is everyone picking on Israel? They kill a few thousand; so what? We kill millions.

Let’s just stop and think for a moment –

Do we want to call Israeli’s action piracy and murder, or sing the praises of brave young Israeli Defense Forces acting in self defense while protecting Israel from “peace activists” with ties to Muslim extremists and terrorists? Do we want to call our Iraq invasion an illegal war of aggression, the ultimate war crime, resulting in the death of millions, or an important action to rid the world of WMD’s and spread democracy and freedom, or in Obama’s Egyptian speech, merely a “war of choice”.

We must continue supporting Israel – and telling the world that it needs to concentrate on important issues, such as forgetting about the non-existent WMD in Iraq, and focusing on sanctions and possible military action with regard to the non-existent nuclear weapons in Iran.

So, let’s all just relax, take our blue pills, and perhaps pat ourselves on the back and pass around another Nobel Peace Prize, maybe this time to the U.S. Military Industrial Complex, for promoting peace and security and spreading freedom and democracy around the world, particularly in the Mid East.
