COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE INDEPENDENT
"Benjamin
Netanyahu 'rejects' Donald Trump's comments on Muslims and says Israel
'respects all citizens' rights'"
That last is a laughable, lawyer-crafted, courtroom
statement since Israel in fact keeps about 5 million non-citizens in a state of
perpetual bondage.
I suspect The
Independent has the quote slightly wrong also.
What Netanyahu said must have been something along these
lines:
"Israel rejects Donald Trump's comments on Muslims
because Israel just shoots them in the streets.”
Oh please, even publishing this man's words is sickening.
Netanyahu is personally responsible for killing thousands of
Muslims.
And leaving thousands homeless.
He holds thousands in jail without due process.
He abuses millions daily with check-points and limits on
movement.
He steals homes and farms regularly.
I am no admirer of Trump, but compared to Netanyahu, a genuinely
evil man, he seems almost wholesome.
I feel pretty sure that Netanyahu makes this effort, not
just as another cheap opportunity to speak from momentary ethical high ground, but
because Trump is the one candidate Israel actually fears since he does not
depend on campaign contributions from lobbies like the extremely powerful one with
which Israel keeps most of Washington’s pathetic politicians in line.
