I anyone gave an F about the following, concern for Gaza/the Middle East would be a coherent position, but no one does:
Chinese victims of Mao
Armenians (then and RIGHT NOW)
Victims of barbaray slavers (their genetic legacy happily lightening the captors offspring down until today)
African victims of other Africans and Arab slavers (their genetic legacy happily protected against darkening by castration of male Afircian slaves)
Victims of Stalin.
The list famously goes on and on.
But it is demanded that I take a position.
This is not new, it happened face to face to me on a college campus 40 years ago.
Add in the latest that Bibi probably knew, let it happen, and theres talk of settling more manufactured "migrants" in the US and EU, and I fear theres some craven, cynical moves here that defy any more patience on my part for either side.
I have a simple "non-political" approach here. Any all agents of foreign government should be prosecuted for violating current law concerns foreign nationals on our shores, and their actions, regardless of their faith or nationality and certainly Marxist/racist/feminists standards of "victim identity".
I hosted a high traffic information clearning house type news site against the Gulf War. I have been consistent in these matters. I have nothing to account or atone for.
Not pollyannaish; I know it wont happen, but if asked what my poosition is, that would be it.
Don’t be afraid to sprinkle some empathy in with your apathy. It’s good to care, it’s human, if even about the innocents on all sides unless of course you believe there are none.
And they would love not to GAF about us. We’ve been stabbing them since 1969 like we stab everyone else, especially our own. They just don’t want to end up like Rhodesia, South Africa, South Vietnam, or Baltimore so they play our silly games.
Look at a map of Israel after 1967, as opposed to now?
And no they weren’t a client until about 1969. Quite the opposite.
Non-intervention was the original strategy of the founding fathers and subsequent foreign policy, "The Monroe Doctrine". 200 years past we need to pay homage, and course correct immediately, https://thefederalist.com/2023/12/29/200-years-later-the-monroe-doctrine-is-still-the-best-protector-of-u-s-interests/
Agree wholeheartedly. My 2024 is my year to focus on giving the bare minimum number of fucks about things that are not my monkeys, not my circus.
Excellent piece, making me reflect on my own thoughts on these matters
