A view on the End of the Palestine-Israel Conflict:

(a letter from john)

Frank & Barbara,

Had some thoughts from last night regarding this thing
in what used to be called Holy Lands: swords and guns
and finger pointing and rants are fun.

No one in the middle east is seeking a solution, they
are seeking mutual annihilation.

Rants are passionate assault.

Each person is a warmonger in the world of self, and
the world stages are where this energy plays out.

People like to watch this kind of crap in the movies
and on TV. Sponsors are willing to pay good money for
those eyeballs. I say we gather up some cameras and a
good shooting crew and go over there.

Now is a time for something entirely new, and it is
not a political thing, it is a financial decision.

If we really want to get creative we can gather up a
cast of "Survivor-like" participants and lay down some
ground rules and have us a new "Reality TV" contest
show. Except we'll call it "Suicide Baby Boombers"...
We pay the families and heirs of the winning boomber
(the one who takes the most assholes with him in the
blast) from each episode a cool million bucks.

Once those mother-ph***ers over there see that what
they're doing is commercially viable entertainment
with big bucks to be made they're all going to want a
piece of the action. So we get them all involved and
competing for the weekly million bucks. After a while
when ratings start to drop off, we as producers,
pocket all the sponsor cash and hightail it off to
the caribbean.

When they find out that the party's over and the money
is gone that's when the "gotcha" sets in. After having
murdered and exploded and terrorized for vast sums of
money, none of them are ever going to go back to doing
this craft for FREE. It's just human nature.

With love, John
