The Odious Reasons Behind The World’s Obsession With Gaza And The West Bank
American Thinker ^ | 30 Nov, 2023 | Jerold Levoritz

Posted on 11/30/2023 3:57:33 AM PST by MtnClimber

International aid to Gaza is the only process that ensures its survival. This rather strange situation has no equivalent in any other place in the world except for the scientists living in Antarctica. Gazans are the most welfare-dependent population in the known universe, producing nothing except a few vegetables. And yet nobody asks why. Let us be crystal clear that every last Gazan would go elsewhere in the world if this aid stopped. The answer lies in the fact that the world’s powers hate what Israel stands for and, believe it or not, that’s not its Jewishness: It is, instead, its contributions to the world and its citizens’ happiness.

When we look at Gaza objectively, it’s logical to ask how long this welfare state will continue. The answer: Until the UN, EU, and US decide this population has lost its usefulness. However, that won’t happen anytime soon. The scene has been set by US Secretary of State Blinken who insists that no Gazan be displaced. He wants the Israelis to propose a plan for returning Gaza to the rule of the corrupt Palestinian Authority ensconced in Ramallah. The American administration’s goal is a two-state solution consisting of Israel within the ‘67 borders and an Arab state of Gaza and Judea/Samaria (aka the West Bank). The Muslims of Gaza are a tool to force this rearrangement.

To savvy people, the title “West Bank” gives away the game. Government employees and the mass media are under the illusion that Judea and Samaria are supposed to be the western provinces of Jordan. This is because Jordan, after nineteen years of rule (‘48-’67), joined Syria and Egypt in the Six-Day War intended to eradicate the Jewish state and lost the “West Bank” to Israel. In fact, Judea and Samaria are Israel’s ancient heartland.

Israel is a moral democracy.

So Democrat Kiddie Rapers hate Israel and love Muslim Kiddie Rapers.

Similar apparently applies to Ukraine... $120B and counting just from the US, perhaps another $80B from others. Pushing for NATO entry.

Gaza is Israels zoo. full of hateful animals they are obliged to keep alive because .. well... they are the ones who approved of its construction. instead of driving every arab out of gaza,they built a fence around then and fed them.

Stop supplying food, water, and electricity to gaza, tell them to piss off, tell the rest of the arab world, they are your bastard children now, ...you take care of them. AND STOP LETTING THEM INTO TO ISRAEL AS WORKERS.

HAMAS,BLM,PLO. all the same people allowed to grow up instead of being culled when small as no good troublemakers.

The “ left” hates the Bible and does everything in its power to mythologize it or cause doubt or scorn.

I read some idiot trying to justify Hamas murder of children by claiming moral equivalence with God causing the plagues on Egypt that freed the Hebrews

If the author was objective he would point out that Israel is still a U.S. welfare client state even on the 75th anniversary of its founding.

“every last Gazan would go elsewhere in the world if this aid stopped.”

Thus, the aid.

People, who hate Israel, hire the Palestinians to do their dirty work for them.

FALSE: “has no equivalent in any other place in the world”

TRUE: wholesale black welfarism in the U.S. is exactly the same as settler colonialist arab welfarism in Gaza.

It begins with a modern geopolitical myth that even Kissinger accepted - the “Palestinians” are seeking a “two state” solution.

From the beginning, when the U.N. voted that on the end of the British Mandate over Palestin that that Mandate devolve into two states, one that insured a Homeland for Jews, and one Arab, the Arabs, and that’s the entire Arab world REJECTED a two state solution. And when the Jews of Palestine ACCEPTED the two state solution and declared an independent and Sovereign Israel, the Arabs went to war TO ELIMINATE Israel (refusing two separate states).

Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood, the “Palestinian Authority”, the well indoctrinated Arab populations of Gaza, Judea and Samaria (West Bank), and others, continue to work for the destruction of Israel. That is what the pledge “from the river to the sea” means - extinguishing Israel from the map.

Despite billion in aid Gaza produces nothing and much of that aid is looted from the people by Hamas terrorists. Even the wealthiest Arab nations produce only oil and without that they would be reduced to third world economic status. The common denominator would appear to be Islam. Winston Churchill made this same observation about Islam impeding human progress.

"Make Jordan Palestine Again."

That is easy. Just change the name from Jordan to Palestine. Everything is fixed. See how easy it is. The left changes the meaning of words all the time.

I hate to say it but the world might be better off if the USA went broke and stopped all foreign aid to all the world. Do you think China will step in to give away money? If America was tossed into depression and broke—how long would China survive? If we fall, we take the whole world with us. How long could Israel survive without US aid? Or Mexico? or England? It looks like this might be in the works.
