The Mack Attack

Thought-provoking clap-trap for the skeptic-minded

Monday, January 30, 2006



Today's Mack Attack is aimed at the recent Palestinian elections and how the current US administration is reacting. Allegations ensue that the US (that bastion of democracy force-feeding its altruistic values to scruple-starved republics across the planet) tried to rig the elections by backing the other side monetarily, and failed horribly.

Now that Hamas, an established terrorist organization, has won the election legitimately and democratically, Bush has decided that he will only recognize democratically-elected countries that don't have as their wish, the destruction of Israel. This is definitely a case of two wrongs creating not only more wrong, but a catastrophe. Bush is succeeding in doing what Saddam Hussein tried in vain during the Gulf War: Pairing the US and Isreal militarily against the whole of the Middle East. No Arab country will ever side with Israel, so if we do, it is one step closer to a holy war.

With Isreal's elections less than eight weeks away, Netanyahu, the hardline Zionist, is gaining great strides since the Hamas victory. If he should win, it will not only set Middle East peace talks back 30 years, but almost certainly will mean war between Isreal and Palestine. Real biblical stuff. My questions are these: What will be Iran's role should this happen and where will this put the US? Let's hear what you have to say.

Poor George. He's learning the downside to democracy. People vote for who they want to, not who he wants them to...
