Why no funny funny pictures of Yasir Arafat, he who has ordered dozens of civilian attacks, or maybe that wacky leader of Hamas?
Before World War 2, the Jewish community of the United States was primarily a progressive, pro-socialist workingclass community. Since World War 2, the United States has been the center of the world's Jewish community (there are more Jews in the state of New York than in the state of Israel), and like most of the rest of white America, the Jewish community is no longer majority workingclass, and thus no longer progressive nor pro-socialist. Again, it is class and class outlook that is the issue, not religion.
Those of us from Holocaust families who know the history of the collaboration of the Zionists with the Nazis would appreciate it if the Zionists, which is the official ideology of the official, religious Jewish community of the United States, would stop pretending they care about Jews, which they do not, and openly state they care about preserving capitalism, which they certainly do.
The quality of life for the Jewish and Arab workingclass of Israel is declining as the worldwide economic crisis deepens. It is this economic crisis that is the base for the increased opposition to the old capitalist ideology of Zionism. It is capitalism that contains the seeds of its own destruction. The world looks forward to a united workingclass of Israel, for it is that class that will end this outrage known as the Zionist government of Israel, and establish a socialist, secular state in Palestine.
Many newsparpers use to give an up-to-date count of all killing in this conflict. Because of pressure from American Jews that practice has been halted in the pro-Israeli maintream media.
Jews do not like to see the death count. For the record, the latest count is 885 Palestinians and 275 Israelis killed. That figure does not count the many Palestinian children who have died by sickness and by difficulties of going to hospitals, because of the inhumane Israeli occupation.
