My $0.51 (adjusted for inflation and rising energy costs):
1. I think the matter of "who stole what land from who to make who's nation"
is a moot point from a serious point of view. Israel is a free,
industrialized technological nation. They have a large number of scientists
and do not fly planes into buildings of other free nations. Other middle
eastern nations do not hold up to what Israel has accomplished. The only
claim to fame the other middle eastern nations have is oil. When that is no
longer needed, they will probably either collapse into oblivion or be
attacked and utterly destroyed by the many enemies they have made. So to be
sort of practical about it, Israel is doing much better with the land under
their control, so they deserve it more.
2. I will wager that if true superpowers still existed (the US is sort of
borderline at this point) and set their minds to getting the technological
world at large off of oil, and onto something cheap as dirt and easily made,
the Sheiks and such would exist in a state of mortal terror: they would know
that they have made so many enemies, and that they are no longer needed at
all to maintain the superpower's quality of living. I would suspect that
they would not be invaded....complete annihilation would probably be more
likely. Would I shed a tear given what has been done over the years? No.
3. Some people, who I feel are so stupid that they do not deserve to be
using the same supply of O2 that I am using, have suggested that this is the
"second holocaust" and what is being done to Muslims is the same as what was
done to the Jewish. Jews do not fly planes into buildings! Neither do
Christians! What the hell is wrong here people?
4. WHY DO AMERICANS HATE THEMSELVES SO F-----G MUCH!!!!!?? I do not give a
damn what happens to the people that train their kids to blow innocent
people to bits, hijack planes to be used as flying bombs, nerve gas their
own people, MURDER people of other religions just for that sake, etc. Those
people need to die! It really is the good versus bad when you get down to
it, but the good practice so much self-hate and "doubting that the American
way is the right way" that we are never unified, and so we are LOSING the
war against these worthless, murdering scum.
5. We should NOT restrict what we allow in planes any more. We should have
taken the "people" who were trying to perform this latest act of terror and
publicly execute them. Then tell the people of the "religion of peace" to
try it again, and risk the daytime temperature of Syria reaching
>1,000,000K.
6. I do not care that Lebanon is getting the dog-snot kicked out of them. I
hope it continues until their entire military-industrial base is devastated
to a point beyond any hope of repair. They have given support to a group
whose stated charter goal is the elimination of Israel and who want to see
the Jews driven into the sea. If Lebanon is so peaceful why did they allow
this cancerous growth in their midst? People die in war, that is a fact of
life, and people need to grow up and accept this. Israel is protecting
itself, and more power to them.
I am sick and tired of this self hate. The people over here living cushy
nice lives while badmouthing the self-same nation that lets them enjoy that
life are the ones who should be driven into the deep blue sea. If you want
to say that I am just Muslim bashing, don't even try it. None of what I have
said is half as vitriolic as the garbage I have heard people spouting about
Jews and Christians.
If I seem angry, you're right. I am.
