Well, Sammy. I will be glad to join you in condemning what amounts to a vicious and unjustified anti-Semitic attack on Israeli tourists visiting a foreign nation.
But still I see no condemnation if Israeli PM Netanyuhu, who minutes after the attack, and shooting totally from the hip said it had to be Iran behind the attack. Later on, maybe more responsible and equally clueless Israeli officials are now sating, wait maybe its Syria, maybe its Hezzbollah, and who knows who else. As some Israelis now blame the Omnipotent Israeli Mosaud who failed to detect the threat in time.
Yet when Israel and the Mossaud murders foreign national in other countries, Israeli officials scream in indignation prove it or else.
But that is just the problem SamurAchzar, When the State of Israel behaves so viciously, they attract hatred from all over the Muslim world and may I add from perhaps most of the nations of the world.
So point granted, two wrongs never adding up to a single right, but Israelis and Muslims catch the hate, no matter where in the world they live. And worse than that, we are not just talking one right or one wrong, we are talking millions of wrongs on all sides never adding up to one right.
As the larger question becomes, how do we defuse that hate and bury the hatchet. As I can site too recent examples. The Irish Catholic v English Protestant problem that lasted some 400 years, finally being solved. And the collapse of South African Apartheid
not turning into a blood bath thanks to the Wisdom of Nelson Mandella and Desmond Tutu.
Does the present or even the past Israeli government have leaders with the vision of a Nelson Mandella or a Desmond Tutu? Sadly I think not.
The ground hog has seen its shadow, and we can predict many more years of unjustified tit for tat violence and misery on all sides for the foreseeable future.
