US Should Threaten War on Israel, Not Iraq!

by Jesse X. Morales
While the US President and his supporters are trying hard to justify a war against Iraq, they are also trying to divert our attention from what should be the real target : Israel, the fourth largest military in the world and the proud owner of a nuclear bomb.
A war on Israel is justifiable for the following reasons:

While Saddam Hussein is accused of killing his own people, the same could be said about Israel, when you take into consideration that the Palestinians are Israel's own people too. The Palestinians share the land and are indigenous to the land. The Palestinians are also Semites. The Palestinians are completely under the military control of Israel and have been since 1967. The Palestinians have been persecuted by the Israeli government since 1967, and actually, since 1948. In 1948, when the UN gave away land that wasn't theirs to give away in the first place to the Jews for their racist state of Israel. On that very first day when Israel was immorally created, Israeli terrorists massacred thousands of Palestinians and drove over half of the Palestinian population, around 800,000, from their own homeland. These were the first of the Palestinian refugees, who now number 4 million, and even though according to UN Resolutions and International Law, they have the right to return, Israel has not cooperated in letting even one Palestinian refugee back to their ancestral homeland.

Israel is hoarding weapons of mass destruction. Israel is the only country in the region that has the nuclear bomb. One of Israel's main industries is in designing and creating weapons of mass destruction. And why is Israel stockpiling these weapons? Because Israel is a Black Hole, dragging the whole world into the abyss of mass destruction, and under the illusion that somehow, Zionists from around the world will rule the world because of this military might. The Jews say "Never Again" but that only applies the Jews. Their paranoia and self-perpetuated persecution fuel their anger towards the whole world, which they aim to control in a brutal fashion. Because didn't you know, everyone is an anti-Semite who isn't a Jew?

Yes, it is true that the US is now aiding and allowing Israel to be this modern day Frankenstein of a country, a verifiable house of horrors. But that is only because of the present government which is dominated by Zionists and their collaborators, who worship at the twin temples of gold and greed, under the gods of money and military power.

However, never underestimate the power of the people. History is full of examples of the people taking back the power from the elite, decadent, morally corrupt ruling class, when they have gone too far. Of course the US fought off the British royalty, headed by their greedy, mad King George. In France, during the Revolution, heads rolled. Literally. So long, all you self-indulgent, selfish, bloated aristocrats! And good riddance! May Marie Antoinette enjoy her cake in hell.

In Romania about ten years ago, the people rose up against their cruel, corrupt leaders, who starved them and completely controlled them. The people turned the tables on them, stormed their palace and killed them.

Now, here in the US, things haven't gotten quite that bad. But beware, if some of our so-called leaders have their way, they just very well might. Now is the time to take back control, hopefully in non-violent ways. We must all take action to rid of our government of corrupt leaders who put money and military before people. The government is supposed to serve the needs and interests of the people. We the people must hold our leaders accountable to this. We must run for office or vote for the Green Party or anyone of any party, as long as they stand for equal rights for all, including Palestinians. We must not allow our government to put Isreal's selfish interests above our own. Israel is urging the US into war with Iraq. How ironic, when it makes more sense to threaten war against fascist Israel. The billions of dollars our current government is forking over to Israel, and then to Egypt, too, as hush money (so they won't complain about what Israel is doing to the Palestinians), should be kept here in America to fund our education and health programs, as well as culture, environment, and other programs. Under no circumstances should our US government ever support an apartheid, anti-democratic, racist country like Israel, which is a thorn in the side to the entire world. The US is the only country who backs immoral Israel. Currently we are complicit in war crimes and crimes against humanity. Remember the law of Karma.

The US has a moral obligation to transform Israel into a true democracy whereby Palestinians will have equal rights, including all four million Palestinian refugees who should finally be allowed to return as is their right according to International Law and UN Resolutions. This is in America's best interests and is aligned with American values, according to our Bill of Rights and our Constitution.

We must act quickly. Get out in the streets! Vote Green and for other candidates who are pro-justice for Palestinians and honest candidates who put America first.
