I've decided the real source of evil in the world is East Europeans.
That's where Nazism finds its most fertile soil. Where the pogroms that inspired Zionism mostly occurred. Where the Zionists came from, that thought turning the clock back 2000 years, at the crossroads of humanity, at the point of a gun, was a good Idea.
Where the Neocons that seized control over American foreign policy over the last fifty years, mostly seem to come from.
How is it that Russia, practically as big as all of Europe, can function as a single country, while the people between the Baltic and the Black Seas put so much effort into hating their neighbors?
Was reading an article in Haaretz this morning, about all the political infighting and while it's becoming evident they can't afford to attack Lebanon, they need to keep beating on the Palestinians, because the war is the only thing keeping them in power and it reminded me of watching mice fight over grains of wheat in front of a bulldozer. Apparently they have no concept of anything, including Jewish history prior to 75 years ago, to understand just how existential this will prove to be, for Israel. Jews can lose wars.
Those pictures of IDF soldiers playing around with women's underwear will still be out there, when the Holocaust has been reduced to a few paragraphs in the histories of the rise and fall of Western civilization.

What does any theory of war have as the first postulate; Know your enemy. Which apparently extremely self centered people find more trouble than it seems worth.
