To all those who vehemently and consistently sound their unequivocal support for EVERYTHING the current Israeli govt(I underline that) is doing. You, both liberals and conservatives sing like a canary about the right of the Jews for self- determination. Fine. Let's imagine that Israelis, the free people as they are, have decided to go communist. Let's say they nationalize everything, proclaim secularity, confine religions to temples, disband religious parties. etc. EVERYTHING ELSE STAYS THE SAME! They still have a standing army, still call themselves Jews, still play vicious control games with Palestinians, still have nukes and ... still say that they are a beacon of enlightenment in the Middle East and AIPAC still promotes that. They still announce that they are the US ally.Hey, good folks of the US, what would you do then?
It is my guess that you would change your position in a blink of an eye and poor Israelis would be condemned by you and people like you up to the point that you would join the Holocaust denial crowd ( sorry for being so caustic). It is because your 'love' of Israel is a slimy love. You do not like Jews. In fact you are indifferent to them. You like yourself, your pseudogoodness, your slimy hypocrisy, your perverted perceptions that here you can score in your balance with whatever God you pretend to worship. But you can't. It is an illusion. If you really love and respect the Jews, stop chewing on them and leave them alone. If you strip naked Jew and Arab, no expert in the world would be able to distinguish. But they both would be very different from the Swedish-German Americans. Thus if we stop interfering into their affairs (and by that I mean stop our govt from using them and taking advantage of the irrational policies of the Israeli govt) and stop telling them what to do, they would survive. Just please, redirect your slimy love elsewhere.
