James Kuntsler has been refernced a number of times, by a number of people,
on this list. Though I consider him a bit shrill, I like to read his
comments, myself. This is the second srticle by a known commentator
(Moriarity is one of his "peak oil" buddies -- 'owns 321 Energy), that I have
seen publicly chastise him in the past few days. I don't have any comment on
the subject matter at the heart of the public feud; it is the feud ,
itself............

I am ashamed

It took a reader to wake me up to the fact I did something I swore I would
never do. First of all, let me say I am under no compunction to provide a
fair and balanced point of view on anything. This is my website and I get to
post what I want to post. You aren’t paying for it so your choice is to read
it or go away, I don’t owe anyone anything, I’m providing it for free.
There is no fair and balanced point of view on some issues. Rape for example.
If I were to come out with an article decrying an increase in rape in some
American city, should I also post something from a rapist explaining why
that’s a good thing? I think not. There are some issues there are not two
reasonable sides to.
Torture is one. Anyone can be tortured into confessing to anything. So
torture is not a way of gaining information, no matter what the media tells
you. And as a former military pilot with two years in combat, it’s my point
of view that it’s a bad idea for us to torture because then the enemy of the
day might also conclude that should do the same to those Americans they might
capture, such as pilots.
I have long been a fan of James Howard Kunstler, author of “The Long
Emergency.” Up until today, I have recommended it to everyone I know. We have
posted a dozen or so of his pieces, with a link to his site.
I’m sorry I did, it took a reader to point out to me Kunstler is a racist
anti-Semitic whining War Criminal.
This is part of what he said, “Until the last few days of the year, that is.
I'm sure the ever-growing cohort of American anti-Semites who send me emails
will be tickled when I assert that the Hamas rocket attacks against Israel of
recent days guaranteed a sharp response from Israel -- and now, of course,
Hamas is playing the crybaby card: "... what'd we do to deserve this...?"
Well, you fucking fired a bunch rockets into Israel. Did you ever hear of
cause-and-effect?”
Well Mr. Kunstler, have you ever heard of cause-and-effect? If the Zionist
war criminals running Israel and the American political system stopped
stealing land from the original owners, perhaps they would not get rocketed.
The latest war crime on behalf of the whiners in Israel and their blind and
ignorant supporters in the US have resulted in the deaths of 531 Palestinians
and an additional 2500 wounded. Let me put that into perspective. The US has
200 times the population so for us to experience the same causalities, we
would have to have 106,200 deaths and some 500,000 wounded in ten days of
massacre.
Let me give you some facts no American media will provide you with. The Gaza
Ghetto is 139 square miles, about the size of Philadelphia or Seattle. Within
the Ghetto 1.5 million people live in abject poverty with an unemployment
rate of 65%. It’s one of the most densely populated areas on earth. Israel
maintains a total and complete blockade on the Ghetto (In comparison, the
Warsaw Ghetto contained only 500,000 people)
The blockade is illegal but seeing as how Israel has ignored hundreds of UN
Resolutions regarding their illegal treatment of Palestinians, it’s just one
more war crime on their part.
I called Mr. Kunstler an anti-Semite. I mean exactly what I say, whereas he
just used it in the typically whining crybaby Zionist way where anyone who
dares criticize Israel is at once denounced as an anti-Semite.
But the Zionists who run Israel are not Semites. The Ashkenazi Jews that rule
Israel have no legal, moral, historical or religious ties to Israel. Their
origins are in the Kingdom of Khazar, they converted to Judaism in the 8th
Century. The Palestinians are Semites; the Ashkenazi Jews are not Semites. So
by attacking the Ghetto at Gaza, the Zionists have become the biggest
Anti-Semites of all times.
The latest massacre of innocent people in Gaza should be a wakeup call to
anyone who possesses a moral compass. Mr. Kunstler obviously does not. The
overwhelming firepower, mostly provided by the US Congress that has been
bought and paid for by Israel with the money the US sent as military aid, has
caused a kill ratio of over 100-1. That’s not warfare, that’s a massacre.
Israel is a failed state. The Zionists have proven beyond question that they
cannot live in peace with their neighbors.
Whatever crimes against them were committed in Europe 60 some years ago is
not the problem of the Palestinians who have inhabited their country for 5000
years. The Zionists have no right to steal land from Palestinians; they have
no legal or moral claim to it. And while everyone else in the world realizes
it’s a failed state, only the Zionists ignore the fact that either they learn
to live in peace with their neighbors or they will have to become mass
murderers on a scale unmatched since WW II.
Anyone not disgusted by the actions of Israel lacks a moral compass or is a
victim of the Jewish controlled media in the United States that forbids
anything critical of Israel. Or both. These actions of the last 10 days go
beyond war crimes.
If Israel is to ever get along with their neighbors, the first thing they
need to do is drop the victimhood act and stop whining. Israel is not the
victim, they are the criminals.
