Hey, When In Doubt….Blame The Jews

By Arlene Peck

When I was in college, I used to kid and say that I was majoring in “popularity and friends”. It’s a good thing I didn’t know then all that I know today. Because anti-Semitism is alive and well, and, today it’s not just in those red-neck areas of Georgia where I grew up. Now they’re more polished and re-elect terrorists such as Cynthia McKinney. Gawd, even mall stores like the Body Shop are now, along with their bath salts promoting the Arab Homeland and are sending their profits into funds the “return the Palestinians’ back into Israel which they claim the Jews took away from them.

I am sick and tired of reading the newspapers that are literarily filled with stories of Al Qaeda and pictures of the adventures of hooded terrorists and who they’ve bombed and mutilated.

We start our day with the latest terrorist attack and end with who was beheaded by these seventh century barbarians. Iraq? They are like the rest of them. They have no idea what democracy is and perhaps will never have one, no matter how hard we and the rest of the world try. They don’t want it and hate everyone from the outside who tries to help. They don’t even want to help themselves. It’s easier to send our soldiers to the front lines to get blown up.

Yet, with all of the daily updates of terror from this evil, dysfunctional society which is 1.3 billion strong there are not even a dozen or so mosques from thousands from Morocco to Indonesia, who find this barbaric and savage behavior from their brothers abhorrent. I’ve yet to hear from even one who is even a teensy bit vocal about it. Out of 1.3 billion people….ONE!

Hey, if the European Union and United Nations can sit calmly by and watch hundreds of thousands Sudanese murdered and a million displaced from their homeland, do you think that they are going to come to any aid of the Jews? This is the group that is still aggravated that the Jews survived the Holocaust! I remember when Israel tried to deport 400 vicious terrorists from Lebanon and the United Nations met almost daily to take their resolutions against Israel and CNN covered it with glee.

They meet and have conferences to protest the security wall which seems to be extremely effective in stopping the terrorist from entering into Israel and blowing themselves and everyone in sight to smithereens. It’s OK for us to have a fence in California to keep out the masses of Mexicans from pouring over our borders. And, they don’t even want to kill us. They just want to get our drivers license and on our social services and send money home.

I was in El Arish as a journalist the day the “peace” with Egypt was given the booty of Yamit and another large city. I sat there while Egypt was also given back the only producing oil fields (which had been developed by Israel) and which had made Israel independent of oil imports. I watched them pass over the buffer of the Sinai Peninsula and many militarily important sites. Even after getting everything, the Egyptians haggled, successfully about Taba which was a resort built by the Sonesta Hotels. The same way the Lebanese did about Sheeba farms.

For that Israel received the ‘cold peace’. Then, the Egyptians were primitive in their knowledge. A lot has changed since then. During that time, the United States has armed them to the teeth with the most sophisticated and deadly of modern weapons. And, of course we’ve taught them how to use them. Who are they expected to use them against? Their Arab brothers? I don’t think so.

Frankly, I find it pretty scary that a President who all of Israelis polls say that they find preferable to Kerry in the upcoming election has cut Israelis aid from 3.7 billion last year to 2.7 billion because Bush is angry about the security fence that Israel has been forced to build. Yet, he sends enormous amounts of money to Egypt to not attack Israel.

I’m tired of fighting the world and more importantly, the self-haters who somehow think if they make nice to the enemy, they’ll be loved. Well, I’ve got news for them. The double standard that everyone takes for granted is anti-Semitism. Pure and simple hatred for the Jews. And, I don’t care anymore. I do care that the Jewish state desperately needs to have new leadership that has Israel’s best interest at heart. When Bush says “Jump” their leaders say, “How high. It’s time for Israel to do what they have to do and the hell with everyone else. My mother, Queen Mollie, used to say, “Don’t worry about what ‘they’ think. When ‘they’ are paying your bills, then you can worry.” And, frankly folks, I don’t notice anyone paying my bills.
