I have thought about my reply, and would like to put this another way. For a very long time Lansky controlled much of the finances of the Mob. Ben Siegel was many things, but at the time people saw Jews as book keepers and shop keepers. The inventiveness that antisemitism has bred into the Jewish people, means that often others mistake just how that intelligence can be used. Unlike the Muslims, who immediately try to change the society around them to one they understand, Jews adapt to the conditions they live in. I seem to be talking about destroying Muslims, not because I think that is a solution, or even acceptable, but because I don't see a way around it. Each time I try to figure out how Israel can approach this and solve their problems, I find another awful answer. Unless some leader of the Muslims can see a way towards peace, and it will have to come from a Muslim leader, there is no way. Might just as well remove Unifail and let them get too it.
On longer consideration however, I think the immediate withdrawal of troops from Iraq and Afghanistan would be a timely move. Far better the US put it's money into weaning itself off oil from the ground and got into being totally self sufficient for it's energy needs, and stopped trying to enforce peace in order to ensure the world's oil supply. |
