Regime Out of Control

[dArKeR]

Israel has no plans to kill President George W. Bush. Hard-line Zionists blame the Americans for originally forcing Israel to the negotiating table at Oslo and thus stringing out the futile process from which suicide bombers ultimately emerged. Even though this has caused grievous loss of Israeli life, the Israeli Cabinet has almost certainly decided not to extract its revenge on the president of the United States.

Were ordinary Americans to pause and consider the awful realities of Israeli realpolitik, they would understand that cold-blooded murder has become a part of Israeli policy. Heads of state are no more exempt than five-year-old children ignoring a curfew in order to buy ice cream. Since Ariel Sharon’s government is capable of giving serious consideration to the murder of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, then it is just as capable of ordering the assassination of the president of the United States.

It has shown itself completely prepared to cast aside every tenet of international law and common justice to attain the ends that it requires — which is to crush the Palestinian people, ultimately deported from the last portions of their historic homeland.

1. Victims of abuse often grow up to be abusers...

Do victims of genocide grow up to be genocidal?

[bemildred]

2. Shallow.

This sort of exaggeration has to be more subtle or it won't work.
But then most propaganda has that sort of problem.

3. Yasser Arafat doesn't give billions of dollars in aid to Israel.

n/t

4. Hey, he's got 3 billions in swiss banks, right?

Maybe he should just buy his way out:

"Arik Arik, talk to me, we can do business, you and I.
It doesn't have to be like this."

6. Locking

While obviously satire, the stridency of the end product creates more problems and strain than any value provided by the satire.
