63. The True Irony

There are many, many innocent people in Israel, who are good and true and hold the right things in their hearts and souls.
However the rest (and I am using a broad term here) hold a terrible irony in their actions of supporting some of the most decadent acts to come from this very young country. Patriotism or whatever it keeps being worded into holds no grounds when they, above all those that challenge them, are the most wrong, and are in fact the cause of it all, whether they want to admit it or not.
The irony is, that after all these years, after oppression in Roman times (and before) all the way through the middle-ages and up to Hitlers psycotic disreguard for human life and even the pathetic (real) anti-semitism in todays world, Israel now portrays the exact things that the world, for over 2000 years, had hated the jewish religion, people and culture for.
Its almost like 60 (and more) years ago, they decided to get up and say "Hey, i'm tired of all this prejudice against us, if they think were so bad, lets actually do it". I know thats far reached and dosnt class everyone in Israel like that, but its fairly accurate. The racial profiling (reminisent of the Nazis), along with the wall. The attack on any actual criticism against Israel deemed as "anti-semitism". The horrible waring acts thats rivals the worlds hate for America.
Those your up against may be also wrong, but the lesser of two evils who is showing the world (and gaining their sympathy) why they "had" to do it, is gaining support, while you are still deemed the monster.
Sometimes you have to suck it in and accept you cant have what you want. Or it will mean death, and too many innocents, on both sides, will die because of it.
