MY SAY: RECOGNITION FOR RECOGNITION

At the risk of being diagnosed with perseveration (Uncontrollable repetition of a particular response, such as a word, phrase, or gesture) I find it risible that Israel, a democratic state, not perfect, but very advanced in scientific, cultural, and social institutions is the only nation in the world whose legitimacy is challenged. I also find it even more perverse that Israel’s Prime Minister offers Israel’s patrimony and legitimate and historic claims in exchange for “recognition of its right to exist as a Jewish state”….huh?

The very phrase is offensive. Recognition? By whom?

Well, Israel should also offer some recognition in exchange for this absurd notion. I recognize that Israel’s enemies are a group of jihadist barbarians with a blood lust that can only be satisfied with the demise of Israel. I recognize that they live in the corner of a hell where parents gladly offer their children as suicide bombers for a few bucks and a lot of praise from their neighbors; where they indulge in killing their own offspring for some perceived “dishonor” ; where the truly decent and peaceable people among them fear for their lives and a loss of their heads if they protest the harsh reality of this faith driven hatred.

Well, now that I recognize them for what they are, they can shove their recognition….and Israel’s Prime Minister who is, by default, guardian of Jewish destiny should grow the…..er….spine to say so instead of babbling about negotiations.
