We need to protect our kind. From extinction. You do the living. Go on with your day. We will do the protecting.
And we will teach our children to despise everyone because we are the most special of all creatures; in a world of billions, God chose us as "the pupil of his eye."
So we kill. So we lie. So we kill so we lie. So we hate. And another day find us, and our brothers. A day to hate, to kill, to lie .
A day to feel Holy in all of our killing. Justified. We are the hands of God in this world punishing the weak. Problem is, one can not be a perpetual killer and victim without choosing sides.
We are the lives we live. Daily. There's no going around that. There's a third option we must choose to survive: families; community.
I vowed to protect all Jews. I understood the Jew as a well educated being, industrious and with strong family ties. Taking care of ones in our house, and then looking outwords to the community: giving to the art, giving to less fortunate. Expanding the circle of blessings bestowed on us by a loving God, to our entire community.
That is the solution of Gaza. If you truly believe you are the light of this world , how do you account for so much pain and suffering and darkness your community is inflicting on another.
The Jewish people will be safe when they fulfill their divine mandate. Being the light of this world means getting your house in order. The House of Israel. Then making peace with your neighbors.
"Tear that wall Gorbachev." said former President Ronald Reagan.
"Tear all the walls, Israel." I say. Believe the prophecy you profess to the world and trust your God.
Be the light. Start by pulling the weeds of your garden; and that is your own flesh and soul. The cancerous government of Israel that's making Jews hated around the world. Get rid of your government. Get rid of your settlers. Get rid of your citizens walking around with automatic weapons.
Even an uncompromising atheist such as myself knows, heaven on earth does not look like that
Free Gaza. Bring Palestinians back. Help them rebuild. Shock the entire world by killing your own first, like humans do with cancerous cells that pretend to be us, while killing us.
I suggest a billionaire I know; Barry Sternlicht. He has plenty of time. Smart. Wealthy. Jewish. Son of a Polish Holocaust survivor. He's wasting lifetime energy in Miami, Florida of all places. He's a lost Jewish soul looking for a purpose. Interview him for the job of creating THE NEW ISRAEL.
SHOCK THE WORLD by acknowledging Hamas for what it says it is. Give them what they have asked. Call their bluff. Let the entire world watch while you free Palestina. Send your new emissary to the United Nations and demand their help.Surround Israel with NATO protection while you transition. Look at Ireland. UK. Look at their history. How many Irish men you see out to destroy the United Kingdom?
Institute a SAFE DAY OF RETURN. Let the entire world watch daily videos of families, what's left of them, being welcome back to their homes. The homes the settlers took from them as the Nazis did to your ancestors.
Rebuild their mosques. The churches. The hospitals and universities you destroyed. You broke it. You fix it.
Let the entire world watch daily videos of the Israelis being kind. Let the entire world know who you are. Let them see you being the Jews I have met.
Family. Education. Community. Prosperity for everyone.
Let them see you being the light of this world: educated, wealthy, altruistic. The fertile ground entire civilizations can sprout from. They already love one of your children: the PALESTINIANS.
Right now, all they see is a bunch of atheists like myself, killing in your name. And we don't like what we see.
See the darkness of your ways. Be the light.
