		<description>OK, I&#039;m just going to say it. It&#039;s about time someone did..&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Israel= American&#039;s (BigOil) toe-in-the-door controlling foreign oil reserves for profit...ultimately...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Religious matters are a convenient distraction and excuse for atrocities in the name of money.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I like jews, have jewish ancestors myself and in fact have toyed around with becoming jewish as I like many of their customs; particularly family orientation..&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But...this fixation with Israel has become something of a mental epidemic. And, as I said, a convenient smokescreen.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I have ties to Germany...deep and important, meaningful ties where relics of my forefathers lie and lands that have significance to molding meaning in my life. But you don&#039;t see me invading Germany and setting up a religious state based on my fixation of &quot;holy relics and places&quot; I feel entitled by birth to have a right to control and worship at? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Literally, they&#039;re (overtly) fighting over piles of sand and rubble where some ancient important people happened to have lived and did some important things once and calling it &quot;religious manifest destiny&quot;..when in fact it is patently absurd. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The zealots fight over piles of sand and rubble &quot;relics&quot; that have no more importance to a sublime and unfathomable God than matters of substance: like the Ten Commandments of The Old Testament (the hebrew Bible: most of the Commandments the jews are currently breaking by invading Palestine)...but Oh! Protect the idealism of those piles of rubble! The Wailing Wall!... while their allies, the US BigOil corporations fight over what lies underneath that rubble: The largest oil reserves. They both use each other as an excuse to carry on atrocities that would otherwise be condemned if the wool was pulled away and the dysfunction revealed.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Fixation and greed. Both of which are unforgivable sins in the eyes of Yaweh. Does Hell ring a bell?</description>

<p>Israel= American&#39;s (BigOil) toe-in-the-door controlling foreign oil reserves for profit&#8230;ultimately&#8230;</p>
<p>Religious matters are a convenient distraction and excuse for atrocities in the name of money.</p>
<p>I like jews, have jewish ancestors myself and in fact have toyed around with becoming jewish as I like many of their customs; particularly family orientation..</p>
<p>But&#8230;this fixation with Israel has become something of a mental epidemic. And, as I said, a convenient smokescreen.</p>

		<description>Wow!  Nice spin!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;That terrible (latest) bad guy nationalist Ahmahdinejad daring to have sovereignty with his country and keep US interests out of it!  We should invade!  We should attack!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;No, that would seem to overt in the wake of the same exact thing we just did in Iraq.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Hmmm....what to do.....&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Hey!  I know...  Let&#039;s get our buddies the Israelis to do what they always do: invade Palestine, piss off the Iranian &quot;latest bad guy&quot; and get him to make an aggressive move in defense of his region.  Then the US will &#039;have&#039; to invade Iran...because we won&#039;t have appeared to have been involved with poor innocent attacking Israel, (but we&#039;ll sure come out behind the smokescreen when Iran steps in ; ) )&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I wonder how people live through this stuff, see it over and over and over like with Vietnam, Iraq and now Iran...and just trust trust trust that US powers-that-be are acting altruistically. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&#039;ll admit, religion makes a fine cover for economic takeovers, but enough is enough.  This is getting ridiculous.  Can we ever feel proud of being Americans?  Will they ever let us?</description>
