Shit, a couple of days ago I was watching BBC news, and they were reporting about some Jewish settlements that will have to be abandoned by order from the Israeli government. At one point they were interviewing a female Jewish settler.
This lady said in English that she was disappointed with this order because in the Bible it says that that land belongs to them. Therefore, she doesn't see why they have to leave the Gaza Strip.
I thought "you said 'in the BIBLE it says'?". Well, in the Bible it also says that the Jewish people are the ones responsible for the murder of Jesus, right? And Jesus was not simply murdered by you guys. You chose to do it in an unusually cruel and humiliating way. You nailed him to the cross, rather than simply chaining him as was the custom then. You even added a crown of fish bones to the package. And you invoke the Holy Bible to justify your occupation of Palestine?
Ha! If some Israeli government official read this blog entry, I'm sure he'd label me "anti-semitic", "anti-jewish", and all that kind of shit they use to avoid debating anybody who has some critique to make of them. Well, I'm not anti-jewish, mind you. I'm anti-occupation, anti-land-grabbing-wall, anti-palestinian-oppression.
Funny tactic they have... anybody who has something to criticize about them is because they are anti-jewish, and therefore not worthy of spending their time debating. How cheesy.
