The Israel rules

America's support of the Gaza attack proves once again that our mythical image of Israel has blinded us to its faults -- a myopia with devastating consequences for both countries.

There is this one song I remember, Goes something like this:

He knelt down before the unholy mob - who cried

"War is god!"

Gleaming outwardly with great pride - and

Prepared to die

The women wish him well

Every time he cast off marching to hell

Now if you've never seen a terrible sight

Stroll the garden of earthly delight

Maybe we can make it right - someday

I'll see you high above the Fields of Mars

Who cannot fight anymore

Will never love any less

That kid inside of murder

Must be committed

To live a life of hostility

Never asking what it means

When mother nation

Blood and religion

Sanction killing upon the Fields of Mars

High above the Fields of Mars
