Lament of the Mind

Breaking via ABC News: UN Human Rights Council votes to open inquiry into alleged war crimes in Gaza; U.S. is the ONLY “no” vote.

That’s because the U.S. is a direct accomplice to every war crime that Israel commits.

This is pretty much typical. For some reason, the US (which, hi by the way, we suck) can’t get our heads out of our asses and realize that Israel is a horrible, horrible excuse for a nation. We just pour our money and our weapons into them and think nothing bad will happen, while in the mean time they’re basically committing a slow, brutal genocide of their own.

It’s not anti-Semitism to be anti-Israel. Israel being a shitty, evil nation has nothing to do with the fact that they’re Jews (okay, for the most part); it has everything to do with the fact that they’re total entitled dicks. I have nothing against Jews. I have EVERYTHING against people who use their religion as a mandate to bash another culture out of existence.

It’s time our leadership wakes the fuck up: Israel is being led by the bad guys here. The guys on the other side shooting rockets? Guess what, they’re actually fighting for their lives in the only way they can figure out how because they’re being slaughtered, uplifted, starved, and destroyed in so many ways I can’t even start counting them. If I was in Gaza right now, I can’t honestly say I’d do much different. And in the mean time, the Israelis are openly and actively killing civilians and destroying peoples’ homes and lives, for…what, condo space? Their names on a piece of land? It’s wrong. It’s WRONG.

So yeah. We should be pissed. This vote was fucked up. The rest of the world should hold the US to task for backing one of the worst nations in existence right now. And Israel’s government should be punished with extreme measures.

Because honestly? Human lives are worth more than your fucking religious mandates.
