Bus-ted!
Yow! You know for a FACT that there are some seriously pissed off people in the white house right about now. I can’t believe that anything infuriates this administration more than leaks. Actually, I can rest assured based on history that this admin gets very aggravated by what they see as “disloyalty”. So I can only imagine how ballistic some are over the whole leakage of the Israel-US effort to undermine Hamas using money (shock horror) or rather the lack thereof, sending Palestine into poverty, forcing another election that would reinstate Fatah. They say Hamas will be given a choice: recognize Israel's right to exist, renounce violence and accept previous Palestinian-Israeli agreements — as called for by the United Nations and the West — or face isolation and collapse.
Oh dear. What do you think will be the result of all this?
Golly. The US and Israel are telling us, says the Palestinian populace, what to do (hand wring, hand wring). We better comply or or .
Or what?
Do you honestly think that the Arab world will let the US bully (again) another Muslim country without some kind of recourse? Don’t you think this will give the Islamic world an opportunity to show how well they can do without anyone else’s money?
Can we just butt the hell out, please?
We can look at history. We can look at the present. We can look at it upside down between our legs. There is so much to all this, and frankly, I think that all the thumping of chests and hoopin’ and hollerin’ is, once again, so puerile. None of it gets us anywhere.
They say – you don’t exist.
We say – you won’t exist.
They say – you can’t make us.
We say – yes we can.
They say – no you can’t.
Yes we can
No you can’t.
Ohmigawd!
Our foreign policy is like driving with kids in the backseat.
Don’t make me pull this car over! Give it a rest! Enough already!
Here’s the point. This is democracy in action. They voted and Hamas won. You have leaders in a country that you can’t stand? Welcome to our world, mate! We’ve been dealing with it for over five years! We don’t plot and plan. Not seriously, anyway. You know what we do? We wait for the true colors to be revealed. We wait, however painful it is, and believe me it is so very painful, for the leaders to demonstrate for all the citizens to see how very very wrong they are for the country.
They take stuff that doesn’t belong to them!
They show little to no regard for the general public!
They pollute our air!
They pollute our water!
They allow toxins on our food!
They give their friends jobs they don’t deserve!
They allow their friends to write legislation that benefits only them!
They lie!
And then, the people let out a collective sigh and vote again.
So, follow our lead.
And try to remember who led you back from the brink of chaos.
You’re welcome.
