OUR LONG (AND WRONG) SUPPORT FOR TERRORISM

We can't have diplomatic relations with Iran because
they support terrorists (Hamas and Hizbollah)! Guess
who supported Hamas before Iran? Can you say "Israel?"
Yep. If you'll Google "Israeli support for Hamas," you'll
learn how they did it financially, and by police protection
and intelligence help. Why? Because they wanted to di-
vide the Palestinians, using anti-Arafat factions attracted
to Islamism. Arafat was a secularist, opposed to religious
rule. He had Christians in his government, and was sup-
ported by them. Once Hamas got rolling, with substantial
Israeli help, Arafat's corruption turned people against him,
and toward Hamas which is very religious and, for the
most part, honest.

Truth be known, Israel has always fostered and used
terrorism quite openly, and on a massive scale. If you'll
Google "Israeli terrorism," you'll learn about Irgun, and
the Stern Gang, who blew up the King David Hotel when
the Brits were still in charge. They killed civilians in that
deal, and continuously thereafter. We have always suppor-
ted them of course, in pretty much everything they have
done. We have given them well over $50 billion in the
past 60 years of our taxpayers' dollars with which to
commit war crimes. But we won't speak to Iran because
they help Hamas! The Muslim world just shrugs and
laughs in bitter derision at our duplicity and delusion.

We, by the way, are ourselves actively sponsoring terror-
ism against Iran. I'll go into that more in the next blog.
