I had a chance to read some of the Good Book over the weekend. Don’t ask me which chapter and verse, but it was the part about the Israelites in Egyptian slavery. Specifically, the last three plagues.
To refresh the collective memory, after God sends locusts to eat every bit of vegetation, Pharaoh tells Moses, only the men can go, leave the children.
God then blankets the Egyptians with total darkness, which may not be destructive but scares the crap out of them.
Pharaoh’s response is to let the Israelites go, but they must leave their livestock (without which they would starve). This is what in turn brings about the slaying of the Egyptians first born and the resultant Exodus.
This is the first step in the transformation of the Israelites from a band of tribes into a nation.
Although the ancient Egyptians were not Muslim or Arab, they can be considered, in this day and age, to be representative. I say this because the Middle east of today is a reflection of what existed in antiquity.
Israelites, Egyptians, Jebusites, Moabites, Hittites, Edomites, Babylonians, Assyrians, Persians all at each other, all against the Israelites, and each with their modern counterpart. So now, instead of the Egyptians of yore, it’s their Arab progeny who never miss a chance to spurn a good deal. Like the Pharaoh who could have saved himself and his people a lot of trouble by letting the Israelites go, he kept pushing until he got his shit kicked out.
Arab leaders of the 20th century on have failed to save their own people by trying to keep the Israelites out.
What kind of vibrant economy and society would the Palestinians, Egyptian, Jordanians and Syrians have today if they had not exhausted themselves killing Jews and instead tolerated or embraced them and partnered with them?
In another example of this behavior, today some scum bubble blew himself up in Eilat, killing innocent people. Isn’t it ironic that when these mutants started doing this it was always explained away as the frustrations of Israeli occupation possessing an otherwise simple and naive child who had no other available means of coping?
Now, before the smoke even clears politically, organized groups are claiming responsibility, while never having to account for themselves to the brotherhood of mankind.
The world will tsk, tsk over the loss of Israeli lives because it’s been 9 months since the last incident, and maybe agree with the perpetrators. This is how Arabs make peace with each other. The whole point of the bombing was that Fart-ahhh and Ham-ass shouldn’t be killing each other, but should join together to kill Jews.
Let the Palestinians kill each other, as well as the Sunnis and Shias in Iraq, into oblivion. They’re the only ones who appreciate it.
Today, as in ancient times, the Israelites were differentiated from their neighbors by who sacrificed their children to idols and who didn’t.
Hi
I’m pretty sure you know that the “peace process” in Israel regarding the Palestinians is DOA. Israel is trespassing on muslim land and nothing short of eviction will settle the matter.
The death cult mentality has existed for many centuries and must be a source of embarrassment for those who, barred for the most part from entering Israel and killing infidels there, and to sate the need to kill, turn on each other.
Without oil, these third world police states would all be constantly warring unless a strongman or royal family threatened them with, guess what, death if they didn’t stop.
Thanks for your post.
Land has never been the real issue. It’s anti-Semitism. If Israel moved to Antartica, the Muslims would follow and continue to murder them. Don’t fall for the cheap land hype. That’s just Palestinian propaganda. Muslims are the best liars in the world. It’s part of their cult-like religion.
If Islam fits the definition of a tax-exempt religion, then we need a new definition of tax-exempt or of religion in America’s IRS Rules and Regulations.
