COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN MIDDLE EAST MONITOR
“US: Calls for Lorde’s
show to be cancelled over support for BDS”
Well, I do think all fair-minded people know who is right
here and who is wrong.
Advocating BDS is a peaceful form of protest against an
oppressive government. Boycotts have long been accepted as a legitimate form of
protest.
Calling for the cancellation of a show because of the
performer's political views is just another form of oppression.

about picking on Israel and ignoring others:
Specious nonsense.
Of course, there are other oppressive places, but Israel’s
handiwork is right before our eyes with horrors like the Gaza concentration
camp. And it claims to be an enlightened, democratic place, unlike so many
others of the world’s abusive states.
Every Israeli should be ashamed.

saying “I never heard of a concentration camp that has a 5-star hotel and
shopping malls...Facts do not lie Muslims and their supporters do”:
You are a hopeless idiot to write such things.
We have lots of good sources of information about Gaza.
I don't use words like "concentration camp"
lightly.
Israel still doesn't permit many needed supplies to repair
the unsanitary mess from your last cowardly invasion with bombing runs.
Imagine, bombing runs over one of the world's more densely
populated areas?
And scores of charming Israelis were photographed sitting on
lawn chairs up on the heights enjoying the bombing runs like holiday fireworks.
All while many, many children died below.
I also saw pictures of some ground locations in Gaza with
pools of blood running like flooding down the pavement.
And you've kept Gaza electricity supplies to a painful
minimum for a long time. Who can live modern life without electricity? And the
needs of hospitals? But you care about those as much as you care about some
flies stuck to a piece of flypaper.
In your last two invasions, you killed about 4,000 people,
including, to your eternal shame about a thousand children. When your ugly
machinegun-toting settlers – a handful of lunatics from New York or London –
left their barbed wire enclosures inside Gaza, they actually poisoned the wells
for some of the limited fresh water supply.
You also sprayed large swathes of Gaza's perimeter with
nasty herbicides too, just right for more long-term damage to children. We know
what America’s use of Agent Orange did in Vietnam. Still maiming and killing to
this day.
And some of your worst savages were actually dumping their
sewerage onto parts of Gaza.
Of course, any fisherman from Gaza is allowed only the
smallest area from which to try to catch fish as their ancestors have for
thousands of years. Israeli gun boats fire machine guns on them.
Your Gaza concentration camp is surrounded by towers with
automated, radar operated machine guns, too. What civilized person on earth
would do that?
And did you know that in the original blockade of imports,
Israel actually had calculated exactly how many calories were needed to keep a
person just alive? It was the resulting amount of food that was allowed to be
imported. That's why there were no chocolate bars in Gaza for a while.
Only intense international pressure behind the scenes put a
halt to that Nazi-like policy. The blockade is still immoral and, truly,
illegal, and creates countless hardships, but at least it no longer aims at
starving-out a whole people.
When some peaceful, unarmed people on ships tried to bring
needed supplies to Gaza by sea, your military savagely attacked them, killing
about ten of them and then stole all their possessions. My, you do have a lot
to be proud of. You came to a paradise and created hell.
Look, every informed person knows you just want them gone.
You couldn’t care less if they all died. You seem to have many citizens who
would gladly do the dirty work themselves (Oh, we have read some savage
statements from prominent Israelis, including politicians and rabbis), but you
just don’t want to be held accountable for doing so. General Dayan brutally
said, in connection with your deliberately-engineered War of 1967, that if we
(Israelis) made the Palestinians miserable enough, they would eventually leave.
And that’s just what you’ve done for half a century. That
summarizes Israel's policy. All these years later, you hold millions in abuse
and oppression still. You want the land, minus the people.
And, like the cowards you are, you hide behind the skirts of
the United States while doing so.
You know, your silly efforts to post slogans from the
Official Handbook of Israel's Ministry of Truth influences no one. Your words
are as dishonest as your Prime Minister. But I guess it earns unemployed
Israeli students a few shekels a day to keep posting them as part of the
government’s idiotic organized effort to influence others on the Internet.
