4. The U.S. gives $15,139,178 per day to the Israeli government and military and $232,290 per day to Palestinian NGO’s. Don't ya love how the government uses your tithes...well ok, your three tithes?

5. Israel has been targeted by at least 65 UN resolutions and the Palestinians have been targeted by none.

6. 5 Israelis are being held prisoner by Palestinians, while 9,599 Palestinians are currently imprisoned by Israel. Of course ONE Israeli life is worth 2000 Palestinian lives. That's the difference between being God's Chosen People, and just folks.

“Since the beginning of the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories in 1967, over 650,000 Palestinians have been detained by Israel. This forms approximately 20% of the total Palestinian population in the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT).” Well it might be the only way these guys get a decent meal!

7. Demolitions of Israeli and Palestinian Homes 0 Israeli homes have been demolished by Palestinians and 4,170 Palestinian homes have been demolished by Israel since September 29, 2000. The Housing Boom for Palestinians is always a bust. But it's ok, they don't need them anyway.

8. New Jewish-only settlements have been built on confiscated Palestinian land between March 2001 and July 11, 2003. There have been 0 cases of Palestinians confiscating Israeli land and building settlements. A Palestinian woman did run into an Israeli home once with the family car, but she was shot along with her children, so that one didn't count.

9. The Israeli unemployment rate is 8.9%, while the Palestinian unemployment is estimated at 25-31%. It's always a good policy to keep people from gainful work so they can, as Mr. Bush says, "Put food on their families." It makes them gentle and feel good about their future.

After awhile, one gets the distinct impression that what happens, is planned to happen, orchestrated to happen and wanted to happen. The annonymous "They" keep doing things like this to good Americans, Israelis, Palestinians, Iraqis, Iranians, Syrians and Lebanese. And you know what? I don't have a clue as to what to do about it. I'm feeling stomped, taken advantage of, manipulated, lied to, bamboozled and conned. Maybe Neo-conned. Perhaps soon they will be known more as NECRO-Cons. The day will come when we, the average, the normal, the sincere, will ask ourselves if indeed we did have Sh..for brains allowing this to be. But we'll also note that our own government has made us feel threatened for speaking up and way too watched. Feels a bit more like 1937 than 1967.
