An Agressor State Goes Too Far

DISCLOSURE: VT condemns the horrific tragedy committed by the NAZI Party against Jewish Citizens of Europe during Word War II known as the "Holocaust". VT condemns all racism, bigotry, hate speech, and violence. However, we are an open source uncensored journal and support the right of independent writers and commentors to express their voices; even if those voices are not mainstream as long as they do NOT openly call for violence.

The Iraq Invasion costs are almost in, we just have to wait a half century or so for the 100,000s of veterans traumatized for life and then simply add. Didn’t that feel good, a A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm? What war is next for Israel? Another invasion of Gaza? Another invasion of Lebanon? A strike against Iran? And what provocations and aggressions around the globe are only made public through side-ways, second-hand intelligence?  Is our relationship with an outlaw nation worth American treasure and lives? Many are saying, ‘No.’

Norman Finkelstein, the son of two Holocaust survivors, has dedicated his academic life to rigorous analysis of the actions of this fundamentalist, rightwing, aggressor state, and the propaganda that sustains the militarists who hold sway over Israeli policy. Read his new ‘This Time We Went Too Far.’ See this video, and ask yourself: Are Arabs human? Should we be helping this atrocity?
