Israe...FROM CAROL HERMAN<BR/><BR/>A country needs good laws. <BR/><BR/>Israel only gets good lawyers.<BR/><BR/>Not the same thing.<BR/><BR/>As to borders, without them things would be worse. <BR/><BR/>And, ALL property owners learn that they have neighbors that will fight them over inches. Or plants that extend from one yard into another. Or a dog that travels beyond a family's fence.<BR/><BR/>Meawhile, Israel's "game" now has nothing to do with other countries. It's an internal t'zuris.<BR/><BR/>America knew this stuff back in the 1960's, when LBJ escalated in Vietnam. People, by the droves, came to DC. <BR/><BR/>Nixon also had bus loads of Americans coming to DC. Just in case you thought all you had to do was write letters. No. No. Politicians never like to look out their windows and see crowds. Especially angry ones. And, ones where citizens wave signs.<BR/><BR/>You could check this out. When Yizchak Rabin was murdered, very large crowds showed up. <BR/><BR/>But now?<BR/><BR/>All you have are the police, constantly questioning Olmert; until he "admits" something or other. Totally bypassing any justice system in the free world.<BR/><BR/>So, there ya go. For "borders" to work you need a court system that's not full of bullshit artists. And, women who get elevated into positions ... where if there wasn't this advancement ... they'd be waitresses.<BR/><BR/>And, you'd have to tip them for service.<BR/><BR/>Can you tip this over?<BR/><BR/>As to Lebanon, or any arab state, they are all WEAK!<BR/><BR/>Even Saddam! When he was fighting Iran; American generals would go in and explain strategy to him. He didn't know what to do with it! He was a terrorist!<BR/><BR/>Of course, he ran into the Bush's anger. And, he's dead. And, America is deeply involved in a crappy arab state; where there won't be peace.<BR/><BR/>And, where the saud's aren't moving ahead. Though after 9/11 they sure thought Bush would "change the map of the Mideast" ... instead of just land "in it." And, the "it" is pretty poopy.<BR/><BR/>Iran wants a bomb. And, so what?<BR/><BR/>SHe's got no navy. No army. But she does have natural gas to sell. So germany's buying.<BR/><BR/>By the way, "the bomb" will be used to scare the pants of all the sunnis. ANd, it could be used to flatten Dubai. <BR/><BR/>While Israel's "deterence" is the fighting army. And, the knowledge that if the IDF "flies over" ... that it could be "over" for Nasrallah.<BR/><BR/>One clue is that Nasrallah lives in a hidey-hole. <BR/><BR/>The other clue? Assad knows Bush ordered the IDF to go into Damascus just to remove his head. So the sunnis could pick up "real estate."<BR/><BR/>Since Olmert didn't do as requested ... you'll notice that Olmert's enemies have hidden the truth from you.<BR/><BR/>In gaza? The IDF was to go in and remove hamas. And, then? Bush wouldn't let the IDF keep anything ... Not with the new rules. So Abbas was lined up and waiting for the gaza territory to be swept clean of hamas. ANd, handed off to "guess who?" Not a Jew.<BR/><BR/>I really don't care. <BR/><BR/>Olmert's done some amazing things.<BR/><BR/>Including taking out the nuke reactor in syria. THe one Assad says "wasn't there." <BR/><BR/>You've also had two successful assassinations. Suiliman, the right hand of Assad, is now "missing." And, the muga-hgga guy got blown up in Damascus; where he made a quick trip from Beirut. Never got "home."<BR/><BR/>Olmert, however, doesn't get credit.<BR/><BR/>Bibi gets credit.<BR/><BR/>That's because most Israelis have grown old and have Alzheimers. Because they don't remember Bibi being too rash; and ordering Mashaal's assassination. While he was in Amman. Getting the king there very angry. And, costing Israel "good prisoners" in an exchange just to calm Jordan's short king down. (Read Ephraim Halevy's book.) <BR/><BR/>Today, people are painting Bibi as some sort of giant.<BR/><BR/>Yet, in the spring of 2006, with Bibi heading Likud, and Olmert heading Kadima; Olmert won 29 seats. (Later counted as 31 or 32). And, Bibi just got a dozen.<BR/><BR/>Just in case you don't know how one party's #1 guy gets the prime minister's chair. <BR/><BR/>And, all the stuff now? Gee. While in Likud Olmert double-billed on some of his business deductions.<BR/><BR/>Okay. In America the IRS would collect a fine.<BR/><BR/>But the IRS can't go so far back, that tools for Likud can make up their charges ... ANd, then the police just go and run riot.<BR/><BR/>I especially love the fact that Katsav has never been charged.<BR/><BR/>But one doofus judge in Israel sent a cookie factory manager to prison for rape; where the woman admitted in court the sex was consentual.<BR/><BR/>SO, how did this freak of a judge rule? The man goes to prison because he "made a hole in the woman's soul."<BR/><BR/>Too bad the judge wasn't asked to describe what a "soul" is ... since it's faith based ... and has no rational natural evidence of existence.<BR/><BR/>No wonder you're torn about borders. What are lines, anyway? Didn't Ben Gurion say Israel was a collective?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
