In the Nuclear Age, the ONLY Enemy is War Itself

With all due respect, I think many pundits are making a heroic assumption. "No country is dumb enough to start a military adventure in Iran." I hope they are right. The US strategic planners knew they could not win in Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq. Nevertheless, the USA invaded these countries and persisted until they have killed [to date] approximately 7.2 millions human beings.
"Even more to the point, the government and military of Iran has a strict "no first strike" policy, something that countries like the United States and Israel do not have." My city has absorbed 15 Iranian missile hits 8000 strikes throughout the State of Israel. This reflects a blatant disregard for the safety of her people by the Iranian regime. If it can torture and murder its citizens who merely want freedom, how can a foreigner respect the promise of nuclear tranquility? These are perilous times and we should act accordingly.
Isn't "Israel Rules" a Bit of a Stretch?
Many critics assume the US leaders are so feeble they allow Israelis to call the shots. Worse, they imply that Jewish lobbyists are more persuasive than the thousands of others paying bribes to get their way. Worst, they imply the US public is so weak-minded they allow the Israelis to get away with it.
If Israel ruled, she would take much better care of US citizens than the present regime does. Single payer would be law. Unhealthy citizens are a drag on the economy. Israel has developed a full line of electric cars, which would be clogging US roads now. The USA would conduct fewer wars, but would win them. The labor unions would prosper by the EFCA.
I wrote about Israel not Her Lobbyists
In 1948 Israel's leaders were socialists confronted by invaders, 600,000 homeless Holocaust survivors and 600,000 other Jews mostly victims of tyranny. Almost everything she has comes from that era. She is a warfare/welfare state. She developed collective home building, farming and manufactures run by a hopeless socialist bureaucracy. These institutions continue today under the Labor Party.
Israelis consider cradle to grave welfare, single payer and EFCA as inalienable rights due any human being.
Would You Say that US Lobbyists Represent US Citizens?
Of course, they do not. They work for special interests that would deny EFCA and single payer to the people. The oil lobby prohibits the manufacture of electric cars and the citizens suffocate in California.
In a similar fashion, the Israel lobby for the most part does not serve the interests of the Jewish people who live in Israel. I remind everyone that National Socialists murder Jews right up until today. They attack us every day on the borders and in the media. Why should our right to exist be open to question?
Jews Denied the Right to Exist
During the Pakistani terrorist incursion into Mumbai, the Jews were the only group specifically targeted for murder. The attack on the Chabad House ended the religious and social contacts for the dwindling Jewish population in India.
Over one billion people on the planet actively deny the Jewish right to exist. They have mounted seven wars against Israel in her 61 years of existence. Every day the media vilifies Israel for defending herself.
There have been 6000 major deities in the history of the world. Only One - the Hebrew God - ever spoke in person to His entire flock. Why is this historical fact so offensive to others?
Most US Jews are Americans First and Jews Second
This is the way it should be. As with every other ethnic/religious group in the USA, the Jews must play along to get along in their place of residence. If a person does not have a lobbyist to speak up for him in the Congress, he is a political zero. The lobbyist's record of success is largely determined by the amount of money he has behind him. This is a matter of campaign funds delivered to sympathetic hands.
The US military/industrial complex uses Israel as a weapons and tactics testing ground. Thus, unlike other aid recipients, Israel performs a useful service to the US government. The US holds up her end of the bargain with UN support for example.
Regularly, pacifists and pro-Muslim groups vilify Israel for her MIC connections. Maybe, they have a point. To date, however, they have no valid standing in the US government. They are losers in the general scheme of things. The few Jews who have survived the many persecutions did not do so by listening to losers. There is no glory in dying for a cause.
Is the Israel Hater's Next Step to Blame Israel for the Vietnam Fiasco?
Many pundits critical of Israel are famous for avoiding responsibility for every disaster. Their knee-jerk reaction is to blame the Jews. They assume the US leadership and public are simpletons easily beguiled by the crafty Jews and the traitors of the military/industrial complex.
If Israelis were the bloodthirsty thugs the pundits describe, much of the Middle East would have become a radioactive cinder many years ago. By vilifying Jews, they divert attention from the real culprits who have laid waste to the great nation that once was a Republic.
