What is it about that puny strip of land that drives so many people crazy? If there is a god, why should he care where anybody lives? Is he in the real estate business? Why has the world allowed the scribblings of Bronze Age goat herders to have so much influence? I’ve never been able to figure it out.
Would that they would correct their many mistakes as a nation but racism is stubborn and es-stupid.

Majed Kayali says, “Israel is seeking to remove the Palestinians from place and time and impose its narrative of the area’s history as well as add historical and moral legitimacy for itself.”
That sounds like a fairly routine condemnation of Israel, but it is not. Nationality is like physical health. We don’t fully appreciate it until it’s gone. Then it becomes supremely valuable to us.
The typical American Jew-lover has no grasp of this. He has never been in diplomatic limbo. He has never even been outside the USA. He was born here, and he has never had his citizenship questioned. Since he has always had this privilege, he thinks it’s no big deal, just as physical health is no big deal until we lose it.
In some ways, keeping Palestinian in diplomatic limbo is an even worse mental punishment than confining them to a walled-in death camp (i.e. Gaza).
If your citizenship is never in question, then you may say, “I don’t care about my diplomatic status. I am a citizen of the world.” This again is taking your citizenship for granted. The condition of being genuinely stateless is profoundly difficult.
On a different topic, Palestinians and Bedouins and immigrants are already second-class citizens in Israel. Their status will become lower still, once Israel officially declares itself a “Jewish state” – i.e. a state for Jews.
Majed Kayali says it will “portray the Palestinians as by passers or intruders of the time and place.” Again this seems like no big deal to someone who has never been in limbo. “This is Jewish land, and always has been. You are just a guest. A squatter.”
What do you think? Trouble within their ranks?

@MJ: thanks for the article. I’m having a hard time opening it. I think my computer is trying to tell me something. I will go into mondoweiss and see if I can read it from there. 🙂
lasilencia……May your file be opened quickly…..checked mine and it did ….:)
Hi again. I just read it. They are all crazy. I was reading the comments and could not stop laughing. I don’t know about an American jewish revolution. Have mercy that would be hysterical, but I live in NY and the jews could care less at least out in public, maybe behind closed doors its a different scene. But they are all crazy, I guess it just a matter of degree of how crazy.
@MJ: that was a weird picture. Netanyahu has lost his mind. After a while all that hate consumes your mental state.
The comments had me laughing as well…….:)!
@ lasilencia
They are not crazy – their “crazinest” is only the “smoke” for goyim.
Jews are plannig their activities forward for very long time.
Have a look into the “Protocols of the elders of Zion” – what else still wait for implementing into ours
goyim’s life?
Who is really the “crazy”???
Kind regards – I very appreciate your works – many thanks for it!
@Jack: 🙂
I agree with JACK and you…….
Warrior cultures have this phenomenon.
you gotta look crazy, so that people think that you are the baddest gangster around.
However with that guy….it is the real thing……his own shrink killed himself.
