JEWISH GUILT

(From an e-mail sent September 14, 2012.)

One is obliged to separate the nation of Israel from the ethnic identity of Jews.  They are not synonymous.

HOWEVER--
If there is any group of people anywhere in the world who know how to instill guilt, it is the Jews!  They seemingly learn this from their mothers, and the US has been atoning for the Holocaust ever since WWII, even though blameless!  Of course, the post-war Allied moguls made sure that the State of Israel was created for the Holocaust Jews so that the Jews would go there and not come to THEIR countries!

Now the "Holocaust Guilt Package" has been further augmented by the Republican doctrine of the "End of Days" when (as witless, bigoted evangelicals are convinced), during the Rapture in the "Holy Land," i.e., border-expanded Israel, Jews will surely all convert to Christianity and be saved by Jesus then be swept into Heaven (along with all the Jew souls that have, thankfully, been converted, post-mortem, by the Mormons), and the rest of us schlubs (including known Muslims like Barack Obama) can just burn in Hell forever!  HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!  I can't wait!

So, we were recently assured that the Republican platform was righteous enough to mention "God" at least 5 times and also reinforced their political-theological embrace of the State of Israel, unlike the proto-atheist heathens in the Democratic Party who were finally "brave" enough to railroad a platform amendment from the floor of the Convention to mention "God " and "Israel," despite the firmly hostile "NO" vote clearly heard on the issue!  Now, the Democrats are clearly stand-up kinda guys for principle, just like their feckless, spineless, betraying leader, Barack Obama, who was reportedly the engineer of the locomotive on that "railroad"!

We know that Israel ALREADY has nukes, so why should not Iran seek a strike-back capability to discourage a pre-emptive strike by Israel?  The threats have been levied time and again, and we also know that if it happens, the US government and Obama won't do one single thing about it, except "tsk-tsk."  All the heated rhetoric from US government sources about Iran's ALLEGED nuke capability justifiably invites Israel's first-strike against Iran!  Scare the Hell out of everybody, then do as you please!  A strangely familiar climate following 9/11/01!  Neat!

Some years ago in his book on the subject, former President Jimmy Carter compared the policies of Israel toward Arabs and Muslims as "apartheid," and that stuck in the craw of the political leaders of Israel and the American-Israel Political Action Committee (AIPAC).  It is way past time for the US to decouple its Middle East policies from Holocaust guilt.
