I dreamt of Israel

My dream, actually nightmare, was that Israel haters such as Zbigniew Brzezinski, Brent Scowcrof and Samuel Berger, all former national security advisors met in the White House with Gen. James L. Jones, the current national security advisor and laid out Israel's fate. The current president, Barak Obama had approved of this White House meeting because of Israel's instransigeance in giving the Palestinians what his administration had decided Israel must surrender; namely, East Jerusalem, surrender of the Holy sites in the Old City to international agreement, and a return to the '67 borders (before it captured East Jerusalem and the West Bank) give or take a few territorial swaps.

This group of Arab sympathizers meeting in the White House did throw a bone to Israel. The Palestinians would have to accept that there would be no right-of-return. Still, the Palestinians would have to be given some sort of compensation. There was no mention of the equal number of Jews tossed out of Islamic nations and who lost far more than the Arab farmers who ran from Israel fearing that the Israelis would do to them what they so dearly wanted to do to the Jews.

But, wait a moment. This was no dream! The aforementioned individuals actually did meet at the White House. In fact, Obama had, at times, joined in the meeting. There, in my lap, was the newspaper reporting this meeting. It was the New York Times, International Section, on Thursday April 8th, 2010.

Among the people who brought me this nightmare were the many Jews who had caste their vote for Obama in 2008. I understand Brent Scowcroft just as I understand Henry Ford and the various other industrialists at the start of WW II. I understand Zbigniew Brzezinski as I understand the Polish partisans who hunted Nazis and Jews with equal vigor in their Polish forests and in the hay lofts of their Polish farms. But why, oh why, didn't we see through this 20-year long congregant of Rev Jeremiah Wright? Because he has Passover Seders in the White House?
