- Ever since the day I was born, there's been news about
a "Middle East Crisis". In my lifetime, every single day of it,
there has never NOT been a "Middle East Crisis".
-
- Can there ever be peace in the Middle East? The crisis
began in 1948, when Israel was established. Israel is the crisis. The west
had no "enemies" in the Middle East before that. But now, everyone
there (except, allegedly, Israel) is our enemy. What are Israel and its
many enemies fighting over? Ancient Holy SitesPlaces where patriarch
Abraham and his wife and son and grandson were supposedly buriedPlaces
where gods and angels once appeared to people's ancestors (what a story!)Pieces
of land promised by these gods to their followers (!!). These are ancient
Arab patriarchs and sites. But Israel decided that these were THEIR
patriarchs, and wrote a book called the Bible which is supposed to prove
it. In the last century, people who refer to themselves as Jews convinced
themselves that they are descended from the Israelites of the Bible, and
then convinced themselves that the Palestinians never existed before, and
that they had a right to go take their land. They decided the Palestinians
are newcomersinterlopers and interferers in the great plan written by the
Israelites in their Bible. According to that book, the Holy Sites belong
to the Israelites; anyone else who ever claimed them is long dead and forgotten.
The Bible says that Israel (all the Middle East) is to house the one pure
Israelite race. All other races are to be removed from the area and forgotten.
-
- Now, of course, most Jews don't go along with this sort
of thing. But certain Jews, loyal to certain parts of the Bible and the
Talmud, definitely believe those sites are to be theirs and nobody else's.
And the same goes for Muslims. The Koran tells them that these are THEIR
Holy Sites. And Jews are definitely not supposed to have control over them
or even be at them. Most Muslims have no desire to kill anyone, especially
over a piece of land. But then there are those orthodox ones who take their
scriptures very seriously. As long as there are extreme believers on both
the Israelite and Muslim sides of this picture, each believing that their
shrines must be protected from the other, and neither side willing to compromise,
there can never be peace. A shared Holy Site will be perpetually infuriating
to both sides, each of whom has sworn to keep the shrine pure. They will
never be able to worship privately with their gods, because the "filthy"
neighbours will be constantly trotting in and out. If we need any proof
that we are not an advanced species, this is it. If we ever thought we
were some kind of masterpiece of God's work, we need only look at religion
to see how stupid we really are.
-
- There's only one solution, with two final options.
-
- When a parent or child-care worker finds that children
are fighting over a toy, and they just cannot peaceably share it, the toy
has to be taken away. "Go play with something else." You put
it on a high shelf where they can't see it or get at it, and eventually
they happily go play with something else and forget the toy. After a few
days, if you offer it to them again, and they immediately start fighting
over it, you have to take it away again. And if this happens a few more
times, the toy has to become history.
-
- "It's gone. We don't have it anymore. Forget about
it."
-
- Now, if it's a precious toy, like a family heirloom,
or valuable in some other sense, you hide it away until the kids are older
and they can appreciate it and take care of it.
- But if it's mass-produced commercial crap that can never
even carry sentimental value, you throw it out.
-
- "It's gone. You guys fought over that stupid thing
so much I burned it and fed the ashes to pterodactyls. Just forget about
it!"
-
- This is the only answer to the Middle East Crisis. The
toy must be taken away from the insane little boys who are killing each
other over it. But we're talking about a big toy. How will we take
it away? It would be easier to take the children away from the toy. But
of course they'll just go running back to it, so that won't work.
-
- Solution #1: Clear everyone out of the area (I don't
like killing people) and blow the place up. Make Israel into a big hole,
very deep. Anyone who still wants to fight over the hole can go down in
the hole...but NO WEAPONS. If they want to fight over this hole, they'll
have to use their hands. We'll toss a few sandwiches in and hope they kill
each other. And then, the rest of the world will live in peace.
-
- The two problems with this solution:
-
- A - It will reduce the amount of space available for
the people who remain, who might prefer to keep the whole place intact.
But they may not mind - the absence of Israeli tanks and bombs might make
it worth the price. As long as Israel exists, they'll never have that space
anyway. The upside is that it will create a lovely new lake, a second Dead
Sea, as that basin spills into the hole. This will make it difficult to
throw the fighters in - perhaps the water should be damned up until they're
in the hole and then the waters should be released. So there's more compensation.
-
- B - The worst result: It would destroy ancient sites
that should be preserved forever and only touched by archaeologists. And
this is unacceptable. But here's an important point:
- The Bible orders that all the peoples of the Middle East,
except the Israelites, are to be not only destroyed but completely forgotten.
How can we accomplish that? Destroy all the ancient sites so there's nothing
left to find. The destruction of Iraq, including valuable ancient sites
ruined right in front of archaeologists' eyes by American bulldozers (who
didn't HAVE to use those areas for bases)the current destruction of Lebanon,
especially Baalbek and other incredible pieces of our past, are being plowed
under to make way for a gaudy new pan-Middle-Eastern-all-Israelite mall.
-
- The Middle East is one of the most precious areas on
the planet, archaeologically speaking. A hundred thousand years of human
history is buried there, waiting for us to look at it. Instead, the thugs
known as Israel and America are blowing it all up, often going after specific
sites, seemingly on purpose.
-
- So the only solution is this: ALL people of violence
must be prevented from living in that part of the world, or even visiting
there. Israel must be exposed - its weapons, its lies, its illegal prisoners
- and shut down. The government of that country will be among the people
thrown into the hole. Palestinians, who have been forced to be violent,
will be given the chance to calm down, but those who remain violent will
also have to go into the hole. There are good Jews. There are good Palestinians.
There are good, innocent, Lebanese, Syrians, Jordanians, Iraqis, Iranians,
Saudis, Yemenites, Egyptians.
-
- Religious fanaticism is no problem for anyone as long
as it's peaceful. Peaceful religious fanatics don't want anyone drilling
in their sites, but at least they'll preserve them. Israel and America
seem bent on ruining everything, all posterity, all Middle Eastern human
history. So, clear out all violent people, specifically the American and
Israeli governments, and cut off all support from places like Britain and
Canada and other Zionist strongholds. Clear out the fighters and religious
and political leaders of ALL sides who encourage hatred and violence, whether
they speak with the support of Yahweh or Allah or Jesus or Molech; leaders
who profit from their own followers' strife.

- "Have you seen the little piggies crawling in the
dirt?
- And for all the little piggies life is getting worse,
- always having dirt to play around in.
- Have you seen the bigger piggies in their starched white
shirts?
- You will find the bigger piggies stirring up the dirt;
- Always have clean shirts to play around in.
- In their sties with all their backing,
- they don't care what goes on around.
- In their lives there's something lacking.
- What they need's a damn good whacking.
- Everywhere there's lots of piggies living piggy lives.
- You can see them out to dinner with their piggie wives,
- clutching forks and knives to EAT THEIR BACON."
- (George Harrison, writing about corporate overlords in
"Piggies")
-
- Let only the peaceful, of all denominations, of all races,
have the Middle East. Let only the responsible have charge of precious
ancient lands. No one else can be trusted.
-
- KEEP THE CANNIBAL PIGGIES OUTSIDE IN THE PEN WHERE THEY
BELONG.
- AND TAKE THE TOY AWAY FROM THE FIGHTING CHILDREN.
