Tooday we kaan se plaenle tha konsakwensaz uv tha kreeyaeshan uv a Juewish staet in aan Aarab laand. In 1917, foole 90 years ago, tha British Empieyer ishued tha Balfaur Deklaraeshan, staeting thair intenshan tu estaablish such a Juewish staet.

Two States, No Solution.
An ambitious, but almost certainly doomed 'peace conference' is about to get underway in Annapolis, Maryland, to attempt to carve in stone the parameters and borders of a "two-state solution" to the Israeli-Arab conflict. It occurred to me as I started to type "Arab-Israeli conflict" that that is a loaded term of Zionist invention designed to place the onus for the conflict on the Arabs and create the Jews into innocent victims merely responding to Arab attacks. That, of course, is the exact opposite of the truth. The Jews started this mess but want the whole world to accept their crimes as faits accomplis that cannot be undone.
+
Everything in politics can be undone.
+
Examples are everywhere, that if people hold out long enuf, they may succeed in reversing history. We don't need the example of Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia holding tite, for fifty years, to the hope of being free of the Soviet grasp; or of Croatian nationalists finally triumphing over Yugoslav domination after 73 years; or of Armenians finally getting their own country after many centuries of domination by others. Rather, Tibetans, Kurds, Palestinians, and others who struggle against the odds and are tempted to surrender to the enemies of their aspirations and give up on their dreams have only to look at Israel itself to see that sometimes crazy dreams that no one took seriously for hundreds of years can finally come true. Alas, in the case of Israel, the dream has turned to nitemare, but that does sometimes happen with dreams. If you're lucky, you wake up.
+
We learn best from experience; the harder the experience, the better the lesson. Jews constantly compliment themselves on how brilliant they are, but they seem incapable of learning the lesson of Israel's history. They have not accepted that the creation of Israel was a horrendous, catastrophic mistake that threatens to bring cataclysm to the entire planet as, astonishingly, the United States seems hell-bent (literally) on World War III over Israel! It is as tho the whole of Europe knew, in May 1914, that a Serbian nationalist was going to shoot the Archduke Ferdinand, and that everything that did happen after that event would happen, that World War I would rage over Europe and the Near East, but nobody did a thing to stop the assassination nor change the reactions to it, but instead just willfully plowed ahead into WWI, knowing that it would be a catastrophe but not pulling back from the acts that created that catastrophe.
+
Today we can see plainly the consequences of the creation of a Jewish state in an Arab land. In 1917, fully 90 years ago, the British Empire issued the Balfour Declaration, stating their intention to establish such a Jewish state. Colonel House, Woodrow Wilson's advisor in the Versailles peace talks after WWI, warned Wilson and the British that to proceed with that plan would produce endless war. And it did. Everyone of any sense saw in advance that it would. But the British went ahead anyway.
+
Everything that has happened since Britain's 1917 Balfour Declaration could, in broad terms, have been foreseen. Arabs would not accept a Jewish state being imposed on them from outside and millions of Jews being imported to steal Arabs' land right out from under them and expel Arabs into miserable refugee camps. Arabs' Moslem brothers throughout Islam, a sixth of the world, would be enraged by the aggression of the Jews and their backers. Militants across Islam would be indignant at the passive acceptance, from weakness, of the Zionist crime against Islam, and work to make Islam strong enuf to repel the invaders and restore Palestine to Islam. And various governments would rise to make Islamic states great and powerful once again. Nasser could be predicted; Ahmadinejad could be predicted; aspirations to nuclear armament in Pakistan and Iran could be predicted. And World War III can be predicted.
+
All the while, Zionists in the U.S. keep pretending that it's all the fault of those horrible, barbarous Moslems, when the behavior of the Moslem world has been wholly reactive. They didn't start a thing. Jews from Central Europe came up with the insane idea of recreating a Jewish state that had been destroyed, by the name "Israel", 2,600 years earlier (by the Assyrians), and by the name "Judea", 1,800 years earlier (by the Romans). Moslems didn't persuade the British Empire, an ostensibly Christian country, to embrace that pie-in-the-sky, off-the-wall-nuts idea and start importing Jews into an Arab land. They merely reacted to all that. But they get all the blame, and not just from dishonest "Christian Zionists" in the United States, who, with Jewish Zionists, dominate U.S. media, but even from mainstream U.S. educational institutions.
+
Iran is now being portrayed by these same propagandists as embarking on an unprovoked pursuit of nuclear weapons out of simple malice and genocidal anti-Jewish hatred. The reality is wholly different. Iran has apparently made the same calculation as North Korea, that to lack nuclear weapons is to invite attack. With Iran, the lesson is plainer than for North Korea, given the tragic case of Iraq right nextdoor, which did not have nuclear weapons and therefore was invaded, by order of Zionists. Iran hears all the talk about a pre-emptive strike against Iran, and against Syria. If it does not have nuclear weapons, it will be attacked, as Iraq, without nuclear weapons, was attacked. If, in trying to defend itself, it succeeds in obtaining nuclear weapons, it might stave off attack. So who is the aggressor here?
+
The war cry is that Iran cannot be permitted to develop nuclear weapons, because it will use them in a war of aggression. Israel has nuclear weapons, everyone believes (even tho that should have made it ineligible for U.S. military or other aid (welfare) after the Nonproliferation Treaty was passed), but it hasn't used them in an aggressive war. The United States has nuclear weapons, and is the only country on Earth ever to have used them, tho in a defensive war forced upon it at Pearl Harbor by the nation on whom the U.S. dropped nuclear weapons. The Soviet Union, now Russia, has nuclear weapons; as have Britain, France, China, India, Pakistan, and, probably, North Korea. None of those countries has used them in a war of aggression. Yet.
+
Pakistan is a Moslem country, but it hasn't used nukes against Israel. But Iran will. That is what we are told, explicitly and implicitly, over and over again. And that, like Saddam's supposed nuclear-weapons program, imposes upon the United States the obligation to launch a first-strike war of aggression to defend Israel.
+
We are never tu ask why we are obligated to defend Israel. It goes without saying. Literally.
+
Oh, the pretense is that a nuclear Iran is a danger to us, and that if Iran gets nukes it will also magically get intercontinental ballistic missiles with which to launch them at the United States. There are actually three sane people who believe that. All the rest of the world knows that the U.S. Government does not for one second believe that Iran aspires to launch a first-strike on the U.S. homeland. So why all the war talk in the United States?
+
Because, you see, President Ahmadinejad has said Israel should be wiped off the face of the Earth, or wiped off the map, or something, and that could be done in only one way: by nuclear attack. Oh?
+
I love maps, and have kept track of maps over time. I have an atlas from around 1890, National Geographic maps from as early as 1921, and the Times (of London) Atlas of World History. I know a lot about changes to maps over time.
+
The Soviet Union and Yugoslavia were both wiped off the map, indeed, off the face of the Earth, without nuclear war. In fact, the Soviet Union was erased from the map without any war at all, and the name "Yugoslavia" was finally eliminated without a war, tho there were wars in Croatia, Bosnia, and Kosovo in earlier stages of the struggle to destroy Yugoslavia. Not one nuclear weapon was used in the elimination from the map of either the Soviet Union or Yugoslavia.
+
How about East Germany and West Berlin, which were on maps from 1949 to 1990? They were wiped off the map without even conventional warfare, much less nuclear attack. What else? Goa, Diu, Pondicherry, and Sikkim were all incorporated into India without use of nuclear weapons. No violence, no genocide. But all these once independent entities have vanished from the map.
+
French Louisiana vanished from maps in 1804, by peaceful, mutually agreed purchase, as did Russian North America in 1867. And on, and on.
+
What Iran and other Moslems want is for the name "Israel" to vanish from the map and be replaced by the name "Palestine". One name, one state. Not two names, not even "Jewish Palestine" and "Arab Palestine". One name, one state: Palestine.
+
Does that require the extermination of the Jews? Of course not. It requires only the extension of Palestinian citizenship, with full rights, to "Israelis", who will then become simply "Palestinians", which is what they would have become had they entered Palestine as immigrants rather than conquerors: Jewish Palestinians. No one is talking about forced conversions. That probably includes even Al-Qaeda, who are supposed to be Islamists, and Islam forbids forced conversions of "People of the Book" or dhimmis (the "Book" meaning, mainly, the book we call the "Bible" (from Greek byblos) but also including other faiths memorialized in pre-Islamic sacred writings, such as Zoroastrianism, Hinduism, and Buddhism).
+
In destroying Israel, then, we are not (necessarily) talking about genocide, altho Zionists want Americans to think we are, inescapably, talking about genocide. They are liars.
+
All we are really talking about is changing the political forms and formal name of a tiny area of the planet. It really is as little meaningful as the changes in names from Burma to Myanmar, Congo to Zaire to Congo again, South-West Africa to Namibia, Northern Rhodesia to Zambia, Southern Rhodesia to Zimbabwe, Madagascar to Malagasy Republic and back to Madagascar, Cambodia to Kampuchea to Cambodia again, or Tanganyika and Zanzibar to Tanzania.
+
In the case of Tanzania we have a perfect parallel to what could develop for Israel and Palestine, two separately administered territories merged into one, the only difference being that instead of being a meld of the two prior names, a reunited Palestine would presumably take the name of one of the two entities merged, "Palestine", rather than being dubbed with some combination of the two names. Would Israelis be mollified by a combined name? "Israstine"? Arabs might not like that, since -STINE would be pronounced like -STEIN, a common ending in Ashkenazi Jewish names. "Palael"? How about "Abraham", for the patriarch of both Jews and Arabs? "Israel", after all, was a personal name, for Jacob. Why not, then, call a reunited Palestine the Land of "Abraham", reuniting the Jews and Arabs in a single term that openly calls for appreciation of their common origin?
+
Too peaceful. We wouldn't want Israel to vanish peaceably into a united, peaceful "Abraham" in which the best of both peoples merge in equality and reconciliation. No, we want ARMAGEDDON! Because that is what the creation of Israel was supposed to produce: Armageddon, so that this wicked world can be destroyed, and Jesus can return to Earth and sit in Majesty on his Earthly throne to rule for a thousand years. Of course, billions of people will have to die and be plunged into Hell (the "Lake of Fire") for that to happen, but for those of us who survive — and all Christian Zionists think they'll be among The Elect, altho some sects say that only 144,000 people will survive Armageddon to welcome the Second Coming — it will be a glorious event, something like the pangs of childbirth, from which pains spring all human life. Yeah, that's the ticket.
+
Thus do we return to why it is that we are marching straight into World War III, knowing it's going to happen unless everyone recoils before it's too late: because the people leading us into it understand full well that World War III, with full-scale nuclear exchanges in a dozen different directions, will indeed bring the End of the World. The so-called 'Christians' who are promoting Radical Zionism WANT the world to end. And these, they are convinced, are the End Times. The Antichrist will rule 7 years before the End of the World. George Bush has been President for almost 7 years. Coincidence? They think not.
+
It's all God's plan: the State of Israel had to be established to drive the Moslem world mad. Russia and China's ambitions had to engage on the other side of a U.S.-backed Israel. India, a heathen land, had to get nuclear weapons. Then Pakistan, a Moslem power, had to get nuclear weapons. Then India had to get closer to the United States. So when Iran attacks Israel, the U.S. will attack Iran; Russia and China will attack the United States and India; both of whom will counterattack China and Russia. Pakistan, seeing its chance, will attack India and India will counterattack Pakistan. Then God's winds will sweep the whole of this planet and carry deadly nuclear fallout to every part. Thus will end this wicked world, and Jesus, Triumphant over His own death and the death of Earth, will return to Reign in His Majesty, and all will be Heaven on Earth! See the plan!?! See it?!
+
Well, if you don't see it, congratulate yourself on not being a religious loon. But do not for an instant fail to see why we are moving, full speed ahead, toward World War III, over Israel. No two-state solution will succeed in stopping this inevitable drive to World War III. Even if the Palestinian people, thru their government or even in referendum, should accept defeat and humiliation, and consent to the permanent theft of most of their land and history, militants will not. They will revolt, subvert, assassinate, destroy, joined by recruits from all over the Islamic world. Iran will continue to develop nuclear weapons in self-defense. Christian Zionists will join in Israel's demands that the United States destroy Syria and Iran. Step by step we will move to the precipice. We can all see it, but none dare believe it.
+
There is only one way to stop this somber march to oblivion, and that is a One-State Solution. It is the creation of Israel that started us on this march. Only the un-creation of Israel can stop it. Israel must indeed be wiped off the map. The borders between Arab and Jew in Palestine must be erased; the wall ("security barrier") taken down; the inequality abolished. All of Palestine must be reunited in a multiethnic, multireligious, single state. Call it "Palestine", "Israstine", "Palael", "Abraham", or whatever name the people of Unified Palestine will be proud to call their country, but do it.
+
If the only way Israelis can feel secure about giving up their independence is by making United Palestine the 51st State of the United States, so the United States can guarantee equal treatment under law by rigorously enforcing anti-discrimination laws equally on everyone, then by all means let us make Unified Palestine the 51st State of the United States.

Violating the Constitution; Lying about AIDS; Rejecting Stem-Cell Research.

I have been distracted from this blog of late by an extremely busy period of big events in my hometown, Newark, New Jersey, that required me to post almost 200 fotos and 6 videos, with accompanying text, to my Newark blog since October 14th. Things have calmed down a little here, so I can get back to wider, political issues.
+
Raining in the Bill of Rights. The governor of drought-ravaged Georgia led prayers for rain outside the state capitol building today, in willful, flagrant violation of the prohibition on establishment of religion in the FIRST Amendment of the Bill of Rights. He should be impeached. And now I hope Georgia does run absolutely dry, especially given that ABC News has reported that one rich Georgia bastard has been wasting an extreme amount of water despite water restrictions and has been permitted by authorities to do so.

[A]s many residents are trying to curb and conserve their water usage, one 14,000-square-foot [mansion] in suburban Atlanta has clocked more than 60 times water the average household uses.

Neighbors are outraged that the man, who lives in his five bedroom, seven bathroom home alone, has used enough water to fill a dozen standard swimming pools, while the rest of the city is so thirsty for water.

In fact, last month Chris Carlos used 15 percent more water than he did in October 2006, fueling more frustration. ***

And while outdoor watering is forbidden, the Carlos lawn remains lush, causing some to wonder if he has broken any regulations.

Wondering? There's a drought that threatens to leave Atlantans to truck in water, yet people "wonder" if the owner of a lush green lawn has been watering it? Are all Southerners mental defectives?
+
On June 27th, I pointed out here that ten years ago I advocated we build "an interstate highway system for water" to move water around from where there is too much (like 18 inches of rain in Texas and Oklahoma in one day) to where there is too little, like the drought-stricken Southeast. But absolutely nobody in positions of power sees any need whatsoever to do any such thing. Perhaps if a major metropolis, Atlanta, Georgia, is utterly disrupted by drought, the morons who "lead" us will see that we've got to find ways to compensate for nature's quirks, and finally start work on an interstate highway system for water. Had we started such a system ten years ago, Atlanta wouldn't be facing extreme dislocations now.
+
What will it take? Tens of thousands of major businesses shutting down? millions of people having to leave an entire region of the Nation? What?
+
AIDS, Shmaids. AOL today hilited a story with this headline, "Four People Get AIDS from Organ Donor". That is an outrite lie. No one got AIDS. Four people apparently got HIV, which is not even remotely the same thing as AIDS.
+
That is not a quibble. HIV has absolutely nothing to do with AIDS. It doesn't cause AIDS; it isn't found in every AIDS patient. It has nothing to do with AIDS, except that many people scared of HIV have taken horrendously dangerous drugs to combat it, drugs that, like AZT, can themselves ravage the immune system and effectively produce AIDS rather than fite it.
+
ABC News today reported that sexually transmitted diseases are at an all-time high in the United States. But we're not dropping like flies from AIDS, which was supposed to be transmitted by sex and blood (and, of course, by organ transplants). Why isn't AIDS epidemic if STDs are epidemic? Because, dear reader, AIDS is not transmissible. It is a condition of life-threatening immune-system damage produced by CHEMICALS, and those chemicals are not transmitted by sex, nor blood, nor transplants.
+
What IS involved in transplants? Knocking out the immune system! You can't transplant organs from one person to another without dramatically weakening the immunological system — by DRUGS: that is, by means of CHEMICALS — because the recipient's body will reject transplanted organs if the immune system is functioning properly. So, in order to suppress rejection, doctors have to deliberately suppress the entire immune system. They cannot selectively suppress only the tissue-rejection response. They are able to knock out the immune system by using CHEMICALS, which is what the great preponderance of AIDS patients also did, but indeliberately.
+
The chemicals that doctors use to suppress rejection of transplanted organs are different from those that drug users employed to the same effect, but just as it doesn't matter whether a murder victim is stabbed or shot, it doesn't matter if you reduce the immune system thru powerful prescription drugs or powerful recreational drugs.
+
People don't want to hear it. They are skeptical about everything Government says except on one topic: AIDS. On that one topic, of all the topics in the world, the Government is telling us the absolute truth. Indeed, credulous Americans are betting their lives that the Government is telling them the truth about AIDS. And if the Government says that AIDS is caused by HIV, then it must be true. Because the Government would never lie about a thing like that. Of course not.
+
Rejecting Stem-Cell Research. The voters of my True Blue state, New Jersey, smashed an attempt by elected 'leaders' to force us to go into debt to the tune of $450 million (nearly half a billion) dollars to fund 10 years of embryonic-stem-cell research. The voters said, "Hell no!", rejecting the ballot question by a 6-point margin, 53% to 47%. Mind you, this is the same election that returned the Democrats to strong majorities in both houses of the legislature, to work closely with a Democratic governor. This was, as well (according to a November 11th article on the website of the San Diego Union-Tribune), the first ballot question rejected by New Jersey voters in 17 years! The SignOnSanDiego article said that New Jersey started the national drive toward stem-cell research three years before California launched a major program and speculated that if that same California proposition had instead been put to a vote now, it too would have gone down to defeat. That, of course, is not knowable. But we do know that New Jerseyans voted against a similar proposal here.
+
Why did this very-Blue State reject a bond issue for stem-cell research, even as it passed a bond issue to buy more land to set aside in our Green Acres program? Was it just the cost at a time of economic retrenchment? Surely not. We did, after all, pass the Green Acres funding.
+
In the same election, New Jerseyans also refused to devote more of the sales tax to property-tax relief, meaning that voters refused to take mone from the poor (renters) to give to the middle and upper class who own their own hoem. So we're talking about a very liberal electorate.
+
We voted against embryonic-stem-cell research because New Jerseyans do not want to kill babies to chop them up for parts for adults or even for sick children (already born).
+
The present state government, the (Jon) Corzine administration, had already started some stem-cell programs, but established an ADULT-stem-cell research facility in my city, Newark, perhaps in recognition that this city, in which activist churches have been hugely influential in the city's resurgence, would not put up with a baby "chop shop" on our territory. (Newark was founded by Connecticut Puritans in 1666.) New Jerseyans don't believe the hype about stem cells curing all disease, and know that there are other sources for stem cells (umbilical cords of newborns; fat from adults), so we don't have to slauter children in indecent research about which we can be sure of only one thing: that it will kill babies. We don't know that stem cells will actually ever cure anyone of anything. But we do know that 'harvesting' embryonic stem cells will definitely kill babies.
+
Perhaps three weeks ago, the cable channel TV Land broadcast an episode of the original Star Trek, c. 1966, in which a cloud composed of the life force of a dozen or more beings from a now-dead planet, floating around the galaxy in search of compatible hosts, penetrates the Enterprise and takes control of the body of a woman crew member who was particularly empathetic to other living beings, and thus somehow rendered capable of receiving these life forces without being destroyed by their energy. So far, so good, you might think. No.
+
Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, and the crewwoman all agreed that these twelve alien beings had no right to take over that one woman's body, because her body, her life was hers, not theirs. Spock observed that the aliens just couldn't accept their own deaths. And then the Enterprise contrived a way to make them accept their death, by killing them!
+
The moral of the story? You have the right to your own life, and to receive transplants from people who willingly donate their organs, safely in life or after their own death. You do not, however, have the right to kill others to steal their body parts.
+
Curiously, public-opinion polls before the New Jersey election had the stem-cell proposition passing by a large margin. I left the following comment at one blog that wondered about that:

Here again we see that people lie to pollsters in order not to be seen in a negative lite. People who believe it is immoral to kill babies to keep adults alive may be embarrassed to be thought of as turning a cold heart to the suffering of sick adults, for taking the hard, yet principled stand, "Your health problems are YOUR health problems. You do not have the right to kill someone else to cannibalize their body for your benefit." The people have spoken, more wisely than many of us would have thought in advance: all life ends, but babies must have the right to live before they die. And killing others to stay alive yourself is the behavior of vampires, not human beings.
Astoundingly, despite the overwhelming rejection of the stem-cell proposition, within a week after that vote, developers tried to start work on a stem-cell research facility that the people had said they didn't want. So much for democracy. The project's sponsors hoped to get private funding to make up for the funds The People refused to give them. Some people just won't take a hint. I guess opponents of slautering babies in the name of (mad) science will have to outlaw embryonic-stem-cell research to stop it. We can make plain that any researcher who believes that one person should die so that another can live is free to give his own body to science, now, before natural death, but may not kill an innocent third party. How many researchers perfectly willing to sacrifice babies at the altar of Science will gladly sacrifice themselves instead?
