Here is yet another headline from the main (mesmerizing) media: Blackwater: We will leave Iraq if US orders it, someone is forgetting Iraq's sovereignty or we are just joking about that!!!!

You see, with or whiteout Obama the empire's machine will continue its course. We may change the conductor but the train will continue its path laid out by the market economy forces. The move will be towards gathering more capital and enrichment both materially and emotionally.

Pay As You Go war

Here is the headline today from Afghanistan -- U.S. pays $40,000 after 15 Afghans die in raid --A this rate we can kill all the 24 or so million Afghans for mere 34 Billion dollars.

Again don't say later when they come back with vengeance why they hate us!!!! OK

ISRAEL

Regardless of the situation with the oppressed Palestinians today one thing should never be forgotten and that is the atrocities committed against the Jews by Germans during WWII. I have read about and watched many footage of the concentration camps and its absolutely unacceptable and immoral to deny or other wise question what happened in 1940's. There were of course others who suffered the most inhuman savageri of our time by the Germans, noteably Gypcies, Gays, and Disabled people.

Having said that we should also never forget how Palestinians have been subjected to apartheid and oppression as long as they have been under Israeli occupation.
Middle East stays front and center

Few days has passed since Obama took over the rains but Middle East mess seem as messy as it was during Bush, Clinton, Bush, Regan, Carter, Ford, Nixon, Kennedy... It appears that strong Israel voice still remains in the White House led by No. 2 man Rahm Emanuel. The Jewish presents not as a conspiracy force but because an ethnic group that has perfected the art of being at the right place will stay in the "peoples" house. These American Jews will invariably make their mark on forming Borak's foreign policy that will continue the same one step forward and two step back. (Don't see real CHANGE in this conflict materializing)

I am not bitching about the American Jews outstanding organization and personal dedication, in fact I am mentioning this so our Arab, Indian, and Iranian Americans would take a lesson from Jewish way of active and focused political participation.

As you may know Mr. Emanuel has spent many summers in Israel working, helping, and being indoctrinated on how abused Jews are and why west should unconditionally support them. All I ask is that our American Arabs, Indians and Iranians also send their young ones to home countries for little home country bonding sessions like Jews.

FYI - Funny thing is that if Irish, Germans, Mexican, or Japanese American politicians would send their kids for summer kabus like visits to their respective countries good old Americans (third and earlier generations) would perhaps question their patriotism, but not for Jews, in fact it has become a source of American patriotism to spend time in Israel.

Again as I have written before many times no one is going to bring security, homeland, and prosperity to you, you have to earn it so Palestinians will have to get back on the saddle. No one will going to hand them a homeland, so they should fight on the ground and fight intellectually to wine harts and mind of those that can help.

Existing ISRAEL

If the essence of the occupation of Palestine is not resolved only more painful suffering is in the store for both Israel and Palestinians. Since without West's moral and financial support Israel would not exist then the fault of not resolving this conflict is squarely on western powers. Israel and Palestinians can not and will not be able to resolve the conflict.

If West does not take charge and in say 10 0r 20 years (if the occupation continues) a nuclear device gets detonated in Journalism then no one is to blame but American and Europeans. Palestinians as they have for over 40 year will continue to fight the occupation with more sophistication and resilience.

Iraq - anybody remembers anymore!

Didn't I tell you that we will all forget soon. Who gives a rats eyebrow that 100,000 heck 600,000 have been killed because of Emperor Bush and his anger for 9/11 attacks and Saddam the man. Does anybody even remember Neo-cons, or Machiavellian principles that rules Florence then and White House now.

I sure don't

Gaza Invasion

Couple of things about the Israel's invasion of Gaza.

1) Invasion and occupation apparently is the operative word these days, thanks to USA. Russia follow suite and I expect China, India, and Venezuela could follow suite.

2) As US weaponry pounds Gazans we are now setting the clock again for the next time when average US citizens will invariably ask "why they hate" us.

OBTW - Where is the messenger of Change Sir. Obama on all this. I guess we can't have two president and a visionary LEADER. Promises Promises.

Land of Ibrahim

I have written about this in the past but think it needs to be mentioned again. The ultimate Arab-Israel solution is to create a global nation with Jerusalem being its capital were all Ibrahim religions will be respected and allowed to freely be practiced. That is the "one" state solution that will work in the long run. UN will be moved from New York center of commercial shenanigans there and the city will become the center of the global organization. Jews, Muslims, Christians will administer the day to day operation of the "Global Nation".

I truly believe that is how future of Israel, West Banks and Gaza will be shaped. The only question is how long and how many dead bodies it will take for us to get there!!

Oh by the way Happy New year to sons of Ibrahim.

Judaism VS. Christianity

I wonder why Jewish religion needs to be relevant in the 21st century when its son, Christianity has matured and able to provide for the same set of faith based values. I fine Jewish religion to be like Windows operating system while Vista is running all the major computers. With say no more that 20M people still clinging to that way of worship while over 2 Billion follow the newer version is it realistic to hedge world security on it? I know some say its the principle of the matter that we must fight for and not let rights of people be trampled.

Gaza and Missile Diplomacy

Arab -Israel conflict has like any other conflict evolved from a totally unbalanced forces of a well supplied (recognizing Israel will not have survived without military supplies from WEST) army against a rag tag group of displaced tribal people with small arms and not much organization. The 1970's with so called PLO terrorist activities in retro respect was nothing but bunch of guys in prison yards shooting at the guards and walls.

Now however this conflict is reaching a more equal balance even though Israel still enjoys F16s, guided missiles, Apache helicopters, A1 tanks, 2 Ton bombs from good old US of A. The Palestinians have finally arrived at contemplating how to fight the occupation. The Missiles are the sign of that profound shift. It began with Intifada and suicide missions and now has matured with industrial strength resistance against occupation. I foresee further development of Palestinian fire power and creative methods in the near future.

This profound shift is the only way for this conflict to reach the ultimate end. The Israelis have demonstrated for over 40 years that they will only respond when threatened with fire power. Now perhaps they will begin to see "real" negotiation is the only way they can survive. Not with F16s like they have been since 1967!!
