Pro-Israel Americans; WHAT IF?

Fellow Americans; What if?

What if your own city were declared a sacred place, by any tribe of Indians who were the native race, and you were told you had to leave the property you own, and take your children from the only place they’ve ever known?

Would you be kindly, understanding and cooperative, and leave in peace to find another place that you could live, because your city had been built on war-acquired land where once a holy temple of the Indians did stand?

Would you agree that it was wrong, 200 years ago, for founders of America to treat the natives so, and that the current generation of the once-oppressed retain a right to lands that their forefathers once possessed?

What if you decided that you own your property because you hold a deed that was recorded legally, and that it had been purchased in accordance with the laws, and that you’ve paid the taxes as the owner without pause?

What if you decided that you didn’t want to leave, or that you should be compensated, as you might believe, according to the Constitution and its Bill of Rights, regardless of who’d owned the land before the ancient fights?

Would you then be prepared to die within the house you own, as Indians in battle-tanks destroyed it stone-by-stone, or would you run to save your life, and take your family, to make yourself in your own land a homeless refugee?

What if there were not another place that you could go, except to some small village in the north of Mexico, where you’d be treated as a stranger, though with charity, but where you’d have to learn their tongue and speak it fluently?

Would you not instead prefer to join Americans who had been also so-displaced by raiding Indians, in camps that they had set aside for housing refugees, within the borders of your city that they chose to seize?

Then what if you discovered that another entity, like Russia, China, or Japan; to be exemplary, had armed the band of Indians and given them support, like has been done for Israel by nations of our sort?

Then what if your own sons or daughters got machine-gunned down for throwing rocks at Indians who occupied your town? And what if you discovered that their organs had been sold before their lifeless bodies had grown very stiff and cold?

Would you feel so much anger and resentment in this case, that you’d take steps, regardless of the risks that you would face, to drive away the Indians by any means at hand, including self-explosion as your last and final stand?

Of course you do not have to answer these things openly, but can go on discussing matters academically, because you’re not in Palestine, as Arab or as Jew, and there are no real Indians who are a threat to you.

But in your heart and mind, as well as in your very soul, you know that you would not assume a gentle, passive role, if it were you, and your own children, and your property, that were at risk and danger in your own community.

So please, for your own sake as God perceives you in his mind, remember that he wants you to be good, be fair, be kind, and love all others as you do yourself, which is your test. The First Command is “DO NOT KILL”; as simple are the rest.

In love, not one Commandment can be broken of the ten, yet greed and lust compete with love for dominance in men, and fear does cause the best of men to kill in self-defense. But only evil brings about the death of innocents.

As evil as you might perceive “the Indians” to be, as I have vilified them but for this analogy, the Jews are evil as they treat the Palestinians, and evil is the help they get from us Americans.

What if these Pro Israel Americans decided to emigrate to Israel? If they were Jewish, it's "Welome Aboard".

I called the Israeli Consulate in NYC, and told them I wanted to emigrate to Israel.

I told them I am a retired man of means, would not be a burden, etc..

The first question was "Are you Jewish?"

No, I'm Catholic.

"Well, you must undergo a conversion by an Orthodox Rabbi, and have him endorse you when you have completed the conversion. Would that be a problem?"

Yes, I said, I understand that a man of my age would suffer considerable pain during the circumcision.

"Click."

I know a whole lot of these misguided folks, who have no idea that this is what they must undergo. When I mention it, they don't believe me. I tell them to call, and find out for themselves.

Democracy, my ass.
