- Gentle reader, do you know that Israel is engaged in
ethnic cleansing in southern Lebanon? Israel has ordered all the villagers
to clear out. Israel then destroys their homes and murders the fleeing
villagers. That way there is no one to come back and nothing to which to
return, making it easier for Israel to grab the territory, just as Israel
has been stealing Palestine from the Palestinians.
-
- Do you know that one-third of the Lebanese civilians
murdered by Israel's attacks on civilian residential districts are children?
That is the report from Jan Egeland, the emergency relief coordinator for
the UN. He says it is impossible for help to reach the wounded and those
buried in rubble, because Israeli air strikes have blown up all the bridges
and roads. Considering how often (almost always) Israel misses Hezbollah
targets and hits civilian ones, one might think that Israeli fire is being
guided by US satellites and US military GPS. Don't be surprised at US complicity.
Why would the puppet be any less evil than the puppet master?
-
- Of course, you don't know these things, because the US
print and TV media do not report them.
-
- Because Bush is so proud of himself, you do know that
he has blocked every effort to stop the Israeli slaughter of Lebanese civilians.
Bush has told the UN "NO." Bush has told the European Union "NO."
Bush has told the pro-American Lebanese prime minister "NO."
Twice. Bush is very proud of his firmness. He is enjoying Israel's rampage
and wishes he could do the same thing in Iraq.
-
- Does it make you a Proud American that "your"
president gave Israel the green light to drop bombs on convoys of villagers
fleeing from Israeli shelling, on residential neighborhoods in the capital
of Beirut and throughout Lebanon, on hospitals, on power plants, on food
production and storage, on ports, on civilian airports, on bridges, on
roads, on every piece of infrastructure on which civilized life depends?
Are you a Proud American? Or are you an Israeli puppet?
-
- On July 20, "your" House of Representatives
voted 410-8 in favor of Israel's massive war crimes in Lebanon. Not content
with making every American complicit in war crimes, "your" House
of Representatives, according to the Associated Press, also "condemns
enemies of the Jewish state."
-
- Who are the "enemies of the Jewish state"?
-
- They are the Palestinians whose land has been stolen
by the Jewish state, whose homes and olive groves have been destroyed by
the Jewish state, whose children have been shot down in the streets by
the Jewish state, whose women have been abused by the Jewish state. They
are Palestinians who have been walled off into ghettos, who cannot reach
their farm lands or medical care or schools, who cannot drive on roads
through Palestine that have been constructed for Israelis only. They are
Palestinians whose ancient towns have been invaded by militant Zionist
"settlers" under the protection of the Israeli army who beat
and persecute the Palestinians and drive them out of their towns. They
are Palestinians who cannot allow their children outside their homes because
they will be murdered by Israeli "settlers."
-
- The Palestinians who confront Israeli evil are called
"terrorists." When Bush forced free elections on Palestine, the
people voted for Hamas. Hamas is the organization that has stood up to
Israel. This means, of course, that Hamas is evil, anti-Semitic, un-American
and terrorist. The US and Israel responded by cutting off all funds to
the new government. Democracy is permitted only if it produces the results
Bush and Israel want.
-
- Israelis never practice terror. Only those who are in
Israel's way are terrorists.
-
- Another enemy of the Jewish state is Hezbollah. Hezbollah
is a militia of Shi'ite Muslims created in 1982 when Israel first invaded
Lebanon. During this invasion the great moral Jewish state arranged for
the murder of refugees in refugee camps. The result of Israel's atrocities
was Hezbollah, which fought the Israeli Army, defeated it, and drove it
out of Lebanon. Today Hezbollah not only defends southern Lebanon but also
provides social services such as orphanages and medical care.
-
- To cut to the chase, the enemies of the Jewish state
are any Muslim country not ruled by an American puppet friendly to Israel.
Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and the oil emirates have sided with Israel
against their own kind, because they are dependent either on American money
or on American protection from their own people. Sooner or later these
totally corrupt governments that do not represent the people they rule
will be overthrown. It is only a matter of time.
-
- Indeed Bush and Israel may be hastening the process in
their frantic effort to overthrow the governments of Syria and Iran. Both
governments have more popular support than Bush has, but the White House
Moron doesn't know this. The Moron thinks Syria and Iran will be "cakewalks"
like Iraq, where ten proud divisions of the US military are tied down by
a few lightly armed insurgents.
-
- If you are still a Proud American, consider that your
pride is doing nothing good for Israel or for America.
-
- On July 20 when "your" House of Representatives,
following "your" US Senate, passed the resolution in support
of Israel's war crimes, the most powerful lobby in Washington, the American
Israeli Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), quickly got out a press release
proclaiming "The American people overwhelming support Israel's war
on terrorism and understand that we must stand by our closest ally in this
time of crisis."
-
- The truth is that Israel created the crisis by invading
a country with a pro-American government. The truth is that the American
people do not support Israel's war crimes, as the CNN quick poll results
make clear and as was made clear by callers into C-Span.
-
- Despite the Israeli spin on news provided by US "reporting,"
a majority of Americans do not approve of Israeli atrocities against Lebanese
civilians. Hezbollah is located in southern Lebanon. If Israel is targeting
Hezbollah, why are Israeli bombs falling on northern Lebanon? Why are they
falling on Beirut? Why are they falling on civilian airports? On schools
and hospitals?
-
- Now we arrive at the main point. When the US Senate and
House of Representatives pass resolutions in support of Israeli war crimes
and condemn those who resist Israeli aggression, the Senate and House confirm
Osama bin Laden's propaganda that America stands with Israel against the
Arab and Muslim world.
-
- Indeed, Israel, which has one of the world's largest
per capita incomes, is the largest recipient of US foreign aid. Many believe
that much of this "aid" comes back to AIPAC, which uses it to
elect "our" representatives in Congress.
-
- This perception is no favor to Israel, whose population
is declining, as the smart ones have seen the writing on the wall and have
been leaving. Israel is surrounded by hundreds of millions of Muslims who
are being turned into enemies of Israel by Israel's actions and inhumane
policies.
-
- The hope in the Muslim world has always been that the
United States would intervene in behalf of compromise and make Israel realize
that Israel cannot steal Palestine and turn every Palestinian into a refugee.
-
- This has been the hope of the Arab world. This is the
reason our puppets have not been overthrown. This hope is the reason America
still had some prestige in the Arab world.
-
- The House of Representatives resolution, bought and paid
for by AIPAC money, is the final nail in the coffin of American prestige
in the Middle East. It shows that America is, indeed, Israel's puppet,
just as Osama bin Laden says, and as a majority of Muslims believe.
-
- With hope and diplomacy dead, henceforth America and
Israel have only tooth and claw. The vaunted Israeli army could not defeat
a rag tag militia in southern Lebanon. The vaunted US military cannot defeat
a rag tag, lightly armed insurgency drawn from a minority of the population
in Iraq, insurgents, moreover, who are mainly engaged in civil war against
the Shi'ite majority.
-
- What will the US and its puppet master do? Both are too
full of hubris and paranoia to admit their terrible mistakes. Israel and
the US will either destroy from the air the civilian infrastructure of
Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, and Iran so that civilized life becomes impossible
for Muslims, or the US and Israel will use nuclear weapons to intimidate
Muslims into acquiescence to Israel's desires.
-
- Muslim genocide in one form or another is the professed
goal of the neoconservatives who have total control over the Bush administration.
Neocon godfather Norman Podhoretz has called for World War IV (in neocon
thinking WW III was the Cold War) to overthrow Islam in the Middle East,
deracinate the Islamic religion and turn it into a formalized, secular
ritual.
-
- Rumsfeld's neocon Pentagon has drafted new US war doctrine
that permits pre-emptive nuclear attack on non-nuclear states.
-
- Neocon David Horowitz says that by slaughtering Palestinian
and Lebanese civilians, "Israel is doing the work of the rest of the
civilized world," thus equating war criminals with civilized men.
-
- Neocon Larry Kudlow says that "Israel is doing the
Lord's work" by murdering Lebanese, a claim that should give pause
to Israel's Christian evangelical supporters. Where does the Lord Jesus
say, "go forth and murder your neighbors so that you may steal their
lands"?
-
- The complicity of the American public in these heinous
crimes will damn America for all time in history.
