Finally An Apology

Posted on March 26, 2013 by | Leave a comment

When Benjamin Netanyahu became Prime Minister of Israel his nation enjoyed close ties with Turkey. In fact, Turkish and Israel military forces conducted joint exercises. Israel Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman insulted the Turkish ambassador and then Israel armed units prevented a ship load of civilian goods to proceed to Gaza. In the process Israel soldiers killed civilians. The result was loss of Turkey as an ally and friend. Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan demanded an apology, compensation for those injured or killed and easing of the Gaza blockade. Bibi Netanyahu refused all such requests, after all, he is the Bibi man.

President Obama was able to convince the Bibi man to  apologize by telephoning Erdogan and using the word,”apology.” Wow! the sky did not fall, terrorists did not blast away, all was quiet and serene. Finally, Bibi acted like a mensch. Perhaps, Israel politicians will finally grasp what Winston Churchill used to say: “Jaw, jaw, not war,war.”

Separate And Equal

Posted on March 25, 2013 by | Leave a comment

A bus driver in Stockholm decided to strike a blow for equal treatment by separating white and  black skinned folk who ride buses. After all, it is simply not fair for those who possess a white skin to be forced into close proximity with those whose body smell of the black person. We offer some other ways to ensure that all  humans are treated in a separate and equal manner.

1. Definitely we need to separate men and women on buses. This ends my need to mentally undress attractive women whose gorgeous presence prevents me to concentrate on work.

2. We need to have baseball teams with either right or left handed batters and pitchers.

3. We need to separate singers in audiences between singers and listeners.

4. We need to separate slow walkers from fast walkers. How about a slow walker path in malls?

5. We need to separate slow and fast people who order food.

6. How about separate but equal voting booths? One for the intelligent voter and one for those seeking to vote for Republicans.

Saying I’m Sorry Is OK

Posted on March 23, 2013 by | Leave a comment

President Obama was not able to aid Israelis and Palestinians to resolve their differences but he was able to aid Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end his childish behavior toward Turkey and apologize for the Gaza debacle.  An official on Air Force One said that Netanyahu had apologized to Prime Minister Recep Erdogan for the  murder of innocent Turkish people who were attempting to bring aid to inhabitants in Gaza in 2010. “On behalf of Israelis he apologized for any deaths” that occurred. He also promised to compensate families for loss of their relatives. Netanyahu also spoke with Erdogan who accepted the apology.

When Benjamin Netanyahu assumed the office of prime minister of Israel his nation had close ties with Turkey. Within two years his behavior led to the end of friendship including the end of joint military exercises by both armies.

For some reason the people of Israel prefer a prime minister who ends alliances!

Obama Meets Another Boehner

Posted on March 22, 2013 by | Leave a comment

President Barack Obama is in Israel and had made a side trip to meet Palestinian leaders in Ramallah. If anyone knows  how it feels seeking a compromise with an individual who simply will only compromise if the rights of wealthy people are protected,  then Obama is an expert in these conversations. After all, he has met with John Boehner whose idea of “compromise” is agreeing there will not be any further taxes on those with wealth. Ironically, Obama told Palestinian leaders they should enter into negotiations with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who continues taking away land from Palestinians and has made clear the border of 1967 is now void. In other words, Palestinians have to accept a new border, Palestinians have to accept Jews on land the UN has made clear belongs to Palestinians.

The president, in effect, told Palestinians they should not use Netanyahu’s refusal to compromise as “an excuse” to enter into negotiations. I assume Obama will enter into negotiations with Boehner with the understanding there will be no further rise in taxes on the wealthy!

Stay Home Great Satans!

Posted on March 22, 2013 by | Leave a comment

Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei does not  wish any conversation or compromise with the two Satans who inhabit planet Earth. He  made clear to Israel that if they dare to attack any area of Iran the consequences will be drastic. If Israel threats are transformed into attacks, he warned that any such mistake would lead the Islamic regime “to raze Tel Aviv and Haifa to the ground.” Those in Jerusalem are safe since that city is holy to three religions. His comments are no different than similar comments made by Israel officials about destroying areas in Iran if there was continued work on nuclear development.

Khamenei also sent a message to the United States which seeks to negotiate nuclear weapon issues. “What they mean by talks is that we sit down and talk until Iran accepts their viewpoint.”

There is need for evidence from the US that the goal of talks is compromise. We suggest return of all frozen Iranian funds as a gesture of good will.

Obama In Israel

Posted on March 20, 2013 by | Leave a comment

The black dude has finally decided to visit Israel and has finally decided to please Republicans who insist that to be president of the United States of America one must spend time in Israel sucking up to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. After all, he once went to Egypt and gave a speech, but he did not rush  off to Israel. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel was berated by Republican  senators because he did not believe an American official placed the interests of the US before those of Israel. After all, Mitt Romney visited Israel and pulled in millions from Israel conservatives who  insist that Americans owe their  primary allegiance to the nation of Israel.

Of course, the security of Israel is important. Of course there is need to prevent war in the Middle East and to work for peace. But, the primary responsibility of an American president is to the national interests of the USA. Frankly, visiting Israel will NOT further the cause of peace in the Middle East. Peace will come when Israel leaders acknowledge the rights of Palestinians and agree to compromises that enhance the cause of peace in the region.

Tragedy Of Israel

Posted on March 19, 2013 by | Leave a comment

There is something ironic in having  an American president visit the state of Israel and offer words of advice that compromise is important in resolving conflicts. President Obama confronts nut cases from the Republican party who oppose any form of logical economic programs to handle a recession. He daily encounters men like Congressman John Boehner, who when confronted by evidence the economy is advancing without further tax cuts, insists the solution is to reduce taxes on the wealthy. Israel has its version of the Republican party and men like Boehner. Incoming Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon opposes any  compromise with Palestinian leaders and insists there is no need to halt further settlements on the West Bank nor is there need to release Palestinian prisoners who could aid a peace process. The solution is simple in his eyes, just “manage the situation.”

Naftali Bennett,  head of the Jewish Home Party, promises to oppose any Palestinian state and his fellow idiot, Avigdor Lieberman is dead set against compromise or peace  deals with Palestinians. So,why is President Obama going to Israel?It is show and tell to prove to right wing Republicans that he does not intend to use his power to protect the rights of Palestinians.

Obama has consistently refused to work for peace in the Middle East. I assume he intends to pass on to the next president this problem. Polls in Israel reveal that  two-thirds of Israelis want to witness the establishment of a Palestinian state. This is the tragedy  of Israel.

Another Red Line For Israel

Posted on March 18, 2013 by | 1 Comment

The government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu enjoys informing the American government of the importance of drawing red lines to inform Iran or Syrians as to what they can or can not do. The latest red line being demanded is that American planes should destroy Syrian missile sites if there is any evidence these weapons are being turned over to Hezbollah. The Israel request makes military sense since the prospect of Hezbollah in  possession of such weapons poses a threat to peace in the Middle East.

However, if the US has to draw red lines in sand so should Israel. If the US should be asked to risk lives of Americans, so should Israel be asked to draw a red line in the sand and inform West Bank settlers they must evacuate land that belongs to Palestinians. Why when it comes to West Bank settlers must the Israel government back away? Is Israel  would seriously move toward peace with Palestinians the fear of Hezbollah would weaken.

Abbas Wants Peace, Does Bibi??

Posted on March 16, 2013 by | Leave a comment

Once upon a time, a long, long time ago there was a solid and hard working bloc of people in Israel who desired to live in peace with their Palestinian neighbors. Leaders such as Yasser Arafat and President Abbas rejected offers that might have resulted in finally resolving the conflict with Israel. Unfortunately, for peace in the Middle East, Benjamin Netanyahu became prime minister and proceeded to play on fear and hysteria to halt any progress in the pursuit of peace. Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas told Russian President Putin that it was time to once again take another effort for peace in the Middle East.

“Although the chances for this may not be great, we still hope to reach a political settlement on the basis of the principle of a two-state solution.” The alternative is maintaining the status quo which simply reduces any opportunity for peace in our time.  Peace requires Israel to make still another effort, it requires Palestinians to accept a compromise that does not include return of refugees. After all, Jewish refugees who fled for their lives in 1948 from Arab lands will not be returning to their homes of businesses.

Truth Of Chavez MURDER!

Posted on March 13, 2013 by | Leave a comment

We realize there are naive people who actually believe that our great and glorious leader, HUGO CHAVEZ died of cancer, but we now offer proof that the man who loves all poor folk, was poisoned by the Israel Mossad and American CIA agents! We are pleased to learn an official inquiry has been set up to finally get at the truth of what really happened to HUGO. As acting President Nicolas Maduro has noted: “We have the intuition that our commander Chavez was poisoned by dark forces that wanted him out of the way.” What better way than to inject him with cancer??

We have it on authoritive sources that a Jewish man was spotted in Caracas six months ago, allegedly there for a visit. He was wearing a black coat and had on a black tie. He referred to a friend as “Moe.” Obviously, a sign that he was part of Mossad. There are also reports the American Embassy in Caracas donated food to the hospital where our commander was lying. We have proof that a man working in the kitchen of the hospital was seen walking by the door of the room where our commander was lying. This man was seen talking to a JEWISH doctor in the hospital and gave him a package!

First, the CIA came for our commander, next they will be coming for Kim Jong-un, and finally, they will be coming for the great defender of demcracy, Bashar al-Assad!!
