Showing By Example
The latest in a series of Israeli airstrikes left at least 20 Palestinians dead Thursday, as Israel considers a new invasion of Gaza to confront Hamas. Israel’s deadly attacks on Gaza came the same day that Palestinian militants launched a barrage of long-range rockets at the city of Ashkelon.
The BBC reports that Deputy Defense Minister Matan Vilnai went so far as to warn Palestinians that continued rocket attacks would bring about a “bigger holocaust”, a word seldom used in Israel outside discussions of the Nazi genocide during World War II.
We may soon see a full-on invasion of Gaza once again.
Israel is a strange nation, populated by people who would love to just be happy, complacent sheep but are forced to be fighting rams instead by the malevolent forces that surround them. They stand as proof for the rest of us that, even when ringed by enemies, a determined people can hold them at bay. Considering the rise of anti-American feeling in the world, their example may be of real value to us in the future.
That’s because we’re in the process once again of selecting our leader for the next four no doubt very eventful years, and as usual we don’t seem to be choosing very carefully.
One of the Democratic candidates has been a member for 20 years of an all black, very Afro-centric and racist, “unashamedly black” church that openly supports anti-semitism and honors Americas worst Jew-hater, muslim Louis Farrakhan. While he says he denounces his pastors close ties with this muslim fanatic, he continues to maintain his membership in this church and refers to Farrakhan as “Minister Farrakhan” instead of saying it like it is.
You can’t judge a book by it’s cover, and a bold title can mask a bad narrative.
I think Barack Hussein Obama is a wolf in sheeps clothing. If he’d left that church and really spoken out about its practices long before being prodded to say something, it would have been believable. Not now, it’s too late. Ahh, but sheep don’t think. That’s why they’re sheep.
