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.
