Slomo sand from his book why I am no longer a Jew: “I have the increasing impression that, in certain respects, Hitler was the victor the Second World War…his perverted ideology infiltrated itself and resurfaced."

Shlomo Sand and his book, why I am so long for a jew : “If the United States of America decided tomorrow that it was not the state of all American citizens but rather the state of those persons around the whole world who identify as Anglo-Saxon Protestants, it would bear a striking resemblance to the Jewish State of Israel.”

***** SPDF Day 35: "The reason behind US support for Israel becomes clear...." MUST READ.
The reason behind US support for Israel becomes clear if you consider
what would likely happen if Palestinians became autonomous or if they
became the majority in a democratic, multi-ethnic state. Either
development would upend American-enforced “stability.”
Palestinians in Jordan and elsewhere would attempt to exercise their right of return. Repressed peoples across the Middle East would rise up to demand the kind of freedom from dictators that the Palestinians secured from Israel. Palestinian liberation would trigger a chain of events that could entirely free the region from the American grip as people demand that they — not monarchs and not Western corporations — benefit from their oil.
That’s why the US government’s proclaimed support for Palestinian liberation is as unbelievable as Netanyahu’s. Anything more than a severely attenuated Palestinian state would jeopardize America’s seventy-year old — never-altered — priority. And that prospect, not The Lobby, is the primary reason that the United States stands virtually alone against the rest of the world in unconditionally supporting Israel’s violence against Palestinians.

Robert Reich: " Republicans and neocons have no foreign policy, and never have had one. They have only intransigence and belligerence....
The alliance of right-wing Republicans, neoconservatives, Jewish
billionaires like Sheldon Adelson and Paul Singer, and Benjamin
Netanyahu and right-wing Israelis, is an axis of no compromise that
feeds and feeds off of hardliners in Iran.
Have we forgotten that the Republican right and its neocon brain-trust were behind the invasion of Iraq -- the single stupidest foreign policy decision since the Vietnam War? They have never been held accountable. Yet many of the same Republicans and neocons who smugly asserted then that we had no choice but to take out Saddam Hussein, including William Kristol and John Bolton, are now refusing the deal with Iran.

SPDF Day 34: vlog. My unrecognized assumptions at the beginning of this death fast are not working out terribly well
1. That the, immediacy, the horror, the barbarity of the west's terrororization of Palestine yielded a situation that was concrete enough that we walking dead Americans would show a heightened response, any increased propensity to tap into our humanity and respond.
2. The other unrecognized assumption is that the Palestinians, both the Palestinians in Palestine that maybe somehow become aware of this death fast campaign, and the Palestinians in the United States Diaspora, would have a readiness greater than any other population I've seen thus far, to be drawn to an understanding of the necessity and unique power of the death fast.
All evidence that I have so far suggest that these were entirely false assumptions.
Today for example several different small groups of Palestinians stopped by an identified themselves during my 12 hour campaign at the White House. I found no more sense of urgency, no more sense of immediate family kinship between themselves and the Palestinians being tormented in Palestine, then I've experienced in other populations concerned with global warming, for example. This is very disturbing and somewhat shocking to me. It certainly was unanticipated by me, and as I reflect more broadly on observations I can make I do not find these reactions today to be abnormal or an exception. I've had significant contact with people concerned with Palestine through my face book interchange up until about a week ago, and it became ever more apparent that they were involved, as is the chicken, but not committed as is the pig.
This will factor into my thinking as to how far to take this death fast. If a tree felled in the wilderness does not make a sound does it make sense to finely chopped it down?
