Israel and Gaza


I cannot stand what Israel is doing to the people of Gaza. It is simply immoral and reprehensible. And so I cannot stand the fact that my government continues to support Israel. What Israel is doing is diametrically opposite to what Americans supposedly believe. But our government goes on its merry way in spite of what it supposedly believes. It's been doing this almost as long as I can remember, and now I am fed up with it. 

I have supported the Democratic Party all my life but I see little difference between Democrats and Republicans when it comes to these issues of foreign relations. Hence, I condemn both. I will vote for neither in the coming elections.

Gaza is little more than a concentration camp. People are trapped there and the Israelis are bombing them quite literally to pieces. Israel says that they must be allowed "to defend themselves". Do they really expect us to believe this trash? They have already killed more than 1500 people in Gaza and they have lost fewer than 50 of their own. 

So how does this relate to the Holocaust? Israelis seem to think they can do anything because of the Holocaust. But what they are actually doing is proving that they are little better than Hitler himself. 

They have asked our government for more ammunition, and we will undoubtedly give it to them. But as a citizen of the US, I do not want to be responsible for this slaughter.
