What? Why? How? Sometimes questions have no answers…. Yet perhaps if we think about them in a new way, understanding follows. Give it some thought!
In a region where women are stoned, gays are hanged, Christians are persecuted, Israel … is different…. Of the 300 million Arabs in the Middle East and North Africa, only Israel’s Arab citizens enjoy real democratic rights…. Israel is not what is wrong about the Middle East. Israel is what is right about the Middle East.
In my office in Jerusalem, there’s an ancient seal. It’s a signet ring of a Jewish official from the time of the Bible. The seal was found right next to the Western Wall, and it dates back 2,700 years, to the time of King Hezekiah. Now, there’s a name of the Jewish official inscribed on the ring in Hebrew.
His name was Netanyahu.
“If the Arabs lay down their arms there will be no more war, but if Israel lays down its weapons there would be no more Israel.”
- Benyamin Netanyahu as Knesset Chairman in 2006

How Many Dead Equal a Massacre?
- Thought Bites
Israel on one morning the 7th of October had 1200-1400 (No one knows even now the actual count as bodies are still being found under the rubble.) The slaughter included beheading of infants and dismemberment, burning alive, and more. This was carried out by human beings turned into monsters by the drug Captagon, a synthetic amphetamine-type stimulant provided by Hamas.
Hundreds of young people at a ‘rave’ were murdered, slaughtered, a massive massacre of defenseless youth. (No one knows even now the actual count as bodies are still being found under the rubble.)
A hospital in Gaza was damaged (not destroyed) by a mis-fired Hamas missile killing up to 50 people nearby….. Hamas propaganda says it was an Israeli massacre of 500 infirm…. was it a massacre, if so, will Hamas be vilified?
It seems that WHO dies is more important to the world than HOW or HOW MANY die.
Politics, as usual.
Enslavement of the Masses
- thought bites
When chaos reigns, the average citizen will gladly hand over his freedom and all his worldly goods just to obtain safety, security, food and shelter.
The goal of social and economic destabilization is not difficult to achieve with sufficient propaganda and money for many are ignorant of history. They are uninformed about the social, cultural and political process that lead to the end of their liberty.
Who questions and exposes the deliberate misuse of key terms and phrases to confuse the uninformed/uneducated?
Does the average citizen understand that his blood may be spilled and what comes may be worse than what was?
Ignoring oppressive dictatorships, let us ask about the democracies: Who ARE those ‘selfless’ leaders, organizers and financiers in NY or London, Athens and Rome, who are instigating and financing the chaos?
What is their end goal? We see the means; what is the end?
Citizen: Before you go into the streets to destroy the political, financial and cultural structure of your society, inform yourself beyond the slogans of the demagogues.
Is Israel Being Held Hostage?
- thought bites
The usual threat used by a kidnapper to fend off an attacker is
“I’ll shoot the hostage if you shoot at me.”
But it only works if the hostage has value to the attacker.
- If Israel is the international hostage held by Iran to fend off western attacks against its nuclear bomb project, and
- If the west sees Israel as a thorn in the side of “World Peace”, then
what is the likely end game?
Since When is Mob Rule the Same as Democracy?
- Thought Bites
In every country where the frequently violent thugs are trying control city centers, their numbers in the streets are a significantly tiny percentage of the total population — even of the city they are trying to take over. Yet in trying to maintain civil control, even the most liberal of governments, have been forced into confrontation by the mobs, a confrontation immediately condemned by the hypocritical media.
The worst of it is that the picture presented to a gullible public by that media is nearly unchallenged.
We have to ask ourselves some critical questions:
1. Who are these people in the streets?
2. Who ‘called them’ to the streets; who riled them up?
3. Who pays for the equipment, their food, their tents?
4. How is it that the mobs in Tunisia, Libya, New York, Japan, Tel Aviv (the list goes on and on) all use the same slogans, same signs, and are all composed of many more thugs, rifraff, common criminals, drug addicts, etc., than responsible contributing citizens?
5. Who has led the world down this garden path, telling everyone that the government, the rich, their neighbors, anyone else owes them middle class living conditions while they can party, dope up and just pick up their checks?
6. Who told the unions that their members had a right to live better than everyone else, do substandard work, and then retire wealthy? Who is paying for that? (Hint: Break down the cost of buying a car, a refrigerator, food: all those union member benefits are built into those costs. Who pays?)
7. How is it that the dates of all these demonstrations around the world are so well coordinated?
Lots more questions come to mind…. but I kind of think the hard-working middle class majority are being HAD both by corrupt government and those demonstrating against for more!!! The overreaching question really is:
Are we really willing to be ruled by a mob or by those thugs they want to put in power??
Those Who Rule Over Us
- THOUGHT BITES
At the United Nations, in Washington, Paris, London, Berlin, and other national capitals, or in high-priced ‘getaways’, the lives of ordinary citizens are changed, sometimes forever, by the whims and machinations of Presidents, Prime Ministers and Kings and the uber-wealthy. Most of these world-changers are sane, yet many are greedy for power and glory, some for money, and a few are certifiably insane. Once in a while a leader arises who honestly wants to improve the world for mankind. But it’s the unique human being who can have total power without becoming corrupt and relinquish such power willingly. And it’s the unique society that can honor such a man for very long.
Given their power over the media and the internet to manipulate the facts to influence the opinions of the average citizen, the rampant corruption of Presidents, Kings and the extremely wealthy may well light a fire of chaos which will consume the whole world.
Unfortunately, history shows us that the greedy for wealth and power who often take charge to restore ‘order’, are the most oppressive and reign the longest. What does that say about mankind?
The God complex
- THOUGHT BITES
For the most part:
- If someone knows everything, you can ignore most of what he says.
- If someone who knows everything has power over your life, run like hell, because that is what your life will become.
For yourself:
- Know that man is finite. What you KNOW today may be proven to be error tomorrow.
- Never think that YOU know everything!
Mob Rule vs ?

Definition — Mob rule:
Control of a political situation by those outside the conventional or lawful realm, typically involving violence and intimidation
2010 population of Egypt : 81,121,077 *
Numbers range from thousands, tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands in the streets of Cairo. Let’s say for argument that the highest number of protesters in the streets of all Egypt is 1 million. With a median age of ~24, the adult population is approximately 50,000,000. It’s difficult to assess what percent of the 49,000,000 NOT in the streets are in support of the activities and results of the so-called Arab Spring.
No one argues the obvious fact that the past governments of Egypt (and most other Arab countries) have ruled strictly, often cruelly and corruptly, invading the daily and personal lives of their citizens and severely limiting personal freedom. But is chaos a better alternative? Will the chaos give over to a incorruptible government allowing personal freedoms? Not if the Islamic rulers are able to stuff the ballot boxes or gain control of the streets.
Who started this? Who is keeping it stirred up? and What are the true goals? Who is vying for power and for the wealth and glory of ruling Egypt?
For any formed (elected or not) government to reestablish order in the streets and daily life of Egyptians will demand a strong hand to enforce the rule of law.
The likelihood is that those who don’t agree will once again be in the streets to get their way. In order for a new order to effectively rule, the population INCLUDING the street mob must willingly acquiesce to their limitation of their ‘rights’.
I don’t see that coming round the corner.
