Those bastards! I really wanted to do a nice flippant blog about how, in Jesse Jackson's words, 'I Am Somebody!', because googling gocinatlanta actually yields results. Or, some more funny (at least to my sister) stuff about TCIDNN (The Company I Dare Not Name). But, alas, I cannot. Also, I'm totally incapable of even a decent rant. All I feel is a total sense of nihilism. Or sadness. Or emptiness. Or whatever. I just can't seem to put my thoughts into words. That doesn't mean I won't try.
Since I am a systems programmer, I think logically. At least I'm supposed to. Example, if a program suddenly stops running correctly, something has changed. Software, except for Microsoft code, does not break unless something has broken it, like a programming change or a hardware malfunction. Cause and effect. Because Hitler was appeased and not stopped earlier we had to fight World War II. Because George I did not finish the job with Saddam Hussein, George II will have to take him out. Because Bill Clinton preferred biting his lip and 'feeling our pain' and not making the hard choices to respond to earlier attacks, it emboldened the terrorists and we got 9/11. And because Yassir Arafat is still alive we had another genocide bombing in Jerusalem today. And I blame this bombing on George II and Colin Powell.
To cure cancer it must be totally eradicated, by removal, by radiation or by chemotherapy. It must be totally destroyed. Wild savage animals are not allowed around cities unless they are caged. Mad dogs must be destroyed. So why are we even talking about a Palestinian state? Why are we even talking about an interim Palestinian state? Yassir Arafat and his thugocracy have absolutely no reason to exist in human civilization. Any people who base their entire society on hatred and genocide have absolutely no reason to exist. Any person who would think that giving these people a state would stop their hatred and genocidal terrorism is totally beyond all rational thought. Not only are they no longer in Kanses, they are way past Oz. It's time to stop it!
I started this blog at work. I got home and looked at the Atlanta Urinal and Constipation. The headlines above the fold read: No Soliciting Law Overturned (Jehovah's Witnesses can go door to door...whooptie freakin' do), Dorsey's Attorneys Blame New Triggerman (a murder in Atlanta...ho hum). Below the fold: Bush Boosts Homeownership (the President was in town promoting minority home ownership...photo op..sound bites) ASO Selects Superstar Architect (we're getting a new symphony hall). On page 12 we see Fatal blast rips bus in Jerusalem (Hey honey, some more Jews got killed. Whatever are we going to do about the Middle East? Pass the potatoes please).
Excuse me, but didn't we declare a war on terrorism? I mean, these brave Palestinian freedom fighters are really having a rough time with these ferocious women, children, and old folks that are oppressing the Palestinians. We should be honoring these brave bombers. And didn't Ted Turner call Israel a terrorist state? I just had a long discussion with my friend Cindy and she said I was as bad as the Palestinians with my hatred of them. I replied that for many years I was for a Palestinian state but no more. Over the last fifty years the Palestinians had many opportunities for a state. Israel has always been ready to trade land for peace, but the Palestinians want land but no peace. It's true that the Palestinians have never missed an opportunity to miss an opportunity. As part of the Oslo process the PLO was supposed to amend the part of their charter calling for the desrtuction of Israel. Never happened.
We are at a defining moment in history. We either show the world we mean what we say when we say 'No more terrorism', or we show the world we are just shoveling bullshit like a manager at TCIDNN. I'd really like to have the Israelis take out Arafat (but that would be a disaster...that would be anarchy among the Palestinians..as opposed to what we have now?), but that would be too good for that bug-eyed drooling pitiful excuse for a human. Here's a cliche for ya: Look up a worthless piece of shit in the dictionary and there would be a picture of Arafat. What that man has done to the Palestinians is worse than what Hitler did to the Germans in World War II. Come to think of it, he, Hitler, and Eichmann would have gotten along just fine. And you Eurotrash and the UN, you should be ashamed of yourselves. This problem in the Middle East could have been solved twenty years ago. Why has Arafat been allowed to live this long. Every time I see that worthless piece of shit I want to puke!
Just imagine a civilization where a parent is proud of a son or daughter who goes off to bomb a busload of children. Imagine a civilization that had bred so much hatred that a three year old child would say on a talk show how much she hated Jews and how she would like to kill as many of them as possible when she grew up. Imagine a father in a demonstration in Germany who was carrying a child on his shoulder with a fake explosive belt on her. Imagine a world that was not outraged by any of this. That is the world today. What has Israel done to foster this much hatred? I just don't know. All I know is there is a generation of Palestinians who hate Israel so much that it will do anything to kill as many Jews as possible. And there is a world that hates Jews and Israel so much that is sees nothing wrong with that. And there is a country that has declared a 'War on Terrorism', and is in the process of rewarding terrorism, and the godfather of terrorism, by acceding to all his demands and creating a Palestinian state dedicated to the destruction of Israel.
Please. Please. Please. Let's end the War on Drugs!
I need some bodacious drugs to cope with what's going on.
