UlS-Libyan Relations
When will the US government get it right. The US government continues to support some rouge nations such as Libya and oppose others such as Iran and Syria. We simply cannot have it both ways. We got to be consistent. We are either the champions of freedom and human rights or the supporters of petty dictators such as Kadafi who are responsible for the killing and imprisonment of thousands of their own people.
ISRAEL WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE BY NEMESIS
Judeofascist Israel, being of negative net military and economic value to America, England, France, Russia, and China risks surprise retaliatory nuclear annihilation by Russia and China, if it initiates total war on any of its wealthy Middle Eastern neighbors, such as Iran, who are immensely valuable for their cultural contributions and great wealth in oil. And, by popular agreement of the United Nations of the World, the World would be happier and safer with Israel transformed into star dust in Holocaust III.
Israel’s net negative value is derived from its arsenal of 150 nuclear missiles, and notorious Marxist practice of systematically inciting people to hate and kill one another, nationally and inter-nationally, over cunningly fabricated irreconcilable economic or religious differences. Familiar historical examples are the catastrophically disastrous Russian, German, and Spanish Marxist revolutions; and most recently, the American unprovoked illegal bombing and occupation of Iraq, which sacrificed over a trillion dollars and 4,000 lives for the sole benefit of Israel.
Now, Israel and its supporting Diaspora are notoriously engaged in fanatically desperate propaganda efforts to provoke total war between the patriotic Christian American and Muslim Iranian peoples. But they are failing to incite enough fear and hatred to start a war, because of increasingly popular recognition that they are the common enemy of Iran and these nuclear superpowers.
The Israeli People, from their long exposure to European democratic and Christian culture, know perfectly well the moral and ethical rules that they must inevitably follow to secure their own survival. Every injustice that they have committed against their neighbors, in killing innocent civilians and robbing them of their infrastructure and land, must be fully addressed with apologies and monetary compensation. All of the incessant wailing, ranting, propaganda, extortion, and bribery by the universally condemned People of Israel are to no avail. Inevitably, Nemesis shall have her just retribution upon Israel, dead or alive.
Bush Diplomacy: Too Little, Too Late
I applaud the Bush administration for working to restore relations with Libya. Talk is cheap, however, since establishing relations with Libya will not likely influence any outstanding global issue such as nuclear proliferation, international terrorism, or the soaring energy crisis. Good diplomatic relations are always a plus for any administration and Dr. Rice deserves the credit for aggressively pursuing diplomacy in her tenure at State. I'm saddened only by the fact that this diplomatic surge is taking place in Bush's last year of office.
I say this is more good than not. The Bush administration, now, seven years late, has realized the wisdom in a modern world of constantly talking to all enemies and former enemies.
Yes, Libya has reportedly changed official behavior. But the Libyan people are now the same as they always were, and the bad official behavior of the past might well have been avoided with more talking. You don't have to agree with the leaders and you don't have to give them undue propaganda photo-ops. But you do have to have some kind of diplomatic relations---everywhere and all the time.
For the worst of the worst, arrange the meetings not on our soil or theirs, but in neutral locations.
