It is the only form of submission the Palis acknowledge. Only someone who bashes the Israelis will be treated as something other than a target. You are anti-Israeli, or you will be blown to pieces, or lynched, or shot by masked men in the middle of the street in broad daylight. That is how the whole thing works. Adopt and mimic our hatred, or we will direct it at you. They submit, they cower, they comply. They hate those the mad bombers want them to hate.
The same threat and the same reaction plays out in Europe. What we are witnessing is the revival of Jew hatred as a major political concept world wide, out of world wide cowardice in the face of Bin Laden and his merry band of murderers. Dislike of ruling Anglo-saxon powers, and of capitalism, are stirred into the brew as well. The targets of the hatred are supposed to deserve it, as representing everything anyone on the modern world dislikes about it. Where have we seen this all before?
Welfare program operatives have a self-interest interest in continuing dependency rather than in the "clients" become self-sufficient. No dependent people, no welfare administrator job. I wonder how much of the millions, or is it billions, we send to the Palistinians ever gets beyond all the welfare service providers?
