The madness is back at full strength in Palisraelestine, or more specifically, Gaza. Both sides in the grips of corrupt politicians who use hatred and violence to ensure they stay in power, no matter what the cost to their people. And the other side be damned… The Israelis are very fortunate that their military is highly effective, so they can live in suburban paradise while their army destroys Gaza.

So I have to once again speak against Israel here since my money is funding their evil deeds. It goes without saying that I do not support Hamas’ idiocy, and as an American, my money doesn’t either. I recently met Tom Tlalim, an Israeli living in the Netherlands, and he gave me an very insightful perspective on the state of the land of his birth. Basically, the massive military aid that the US gives to Israel ensures that only the militaristic politicians can stay power. That is what those billions that we send over there get used for.

It is also interesting to note that Egypt once supported the Gazans, for better or worse. But now the US has bought Egypt’s complicity with Israel against the Gazans. We send massive military aid to Egypt and now Egypt helps tighten the prison walls around the Gazans and helps Israel starve all of its inhabitants.

I just read an interview of Arnon Soffer, apparently credited as being the archtect of the current Israeli plan to pull out of Gaza and the West Bank, and instead launch vicious attacks against them. Now I feel I understand their crazy motivations:
