The Real Life Tom and Jerry

Israel and Palestinians are at it again in the Gaza strip. Hamas tore up the the peace treaty like wet tissue paper, and decided to start bombing Israel. Israel pulled their best Mike Tyson ear-bite move and fiercely defended themselves. They have, in the last couple of days, destroyed multiple military compounds run by Hamas.

Wow!

Could this have happened at a better or worse time in history? With the dollar receding against the Euro, ptice drops in oil, and another war going on in the Middle East we're sittitg with baited breath to see how long it takes to effect oil flow.

Jerry (Israel) is the wiley mouse that can befuddle the Muslim World (Tom) next door. I'll tell you what, Tom never got that mouse and damn near killed himself trying. I advise Muslims to leave the Israelites alone. Check out the footage.

For Israel, this is a good thing. They have the reasoning to finally get rid of Hamas. Their biggest supporter, the U.S., couldn't be more shocked and awed at what is going on. With a power vacuum sucking the decision making power out of Washington, Obama is lucky he isn't the Prez right now. Bush ain't gonna do s**t. None of this is good news for the U.S. as declines in the dollar and oil shortages loom over the current financial crisis. With all of this in mind, my advice is the same...STAY OUT!

This brings me to my point for this post. When are we (people) going to learn that some folks just can't get along -- Tom and Jerry, Saber-Tooth Tigers and Mastadons, Yankees and Red Sox, and Israelis and Palestinians.

Some might say I'm mean or insensitive, but they should be left to their own devices. You can't interfere with a feud! You end up killing yourself, because no one on the outside of that feud can understand the feud. It will choke you to death. Look at what the Montague and Capulet feud did to Romeo and Juliet...and they were in the middle of it!

Would you try to stop a Saber-Tooth from snacking on Mastadon rump? Hell no! So we need to stay the hell up out of the Israeli-Palestinian feud. They know each other like that cousin you hate, and nothing or anyone on the outside can change the way you feel - neither through force or diplomacy. I'm penning my letter to the Obama administration, tonight, to stay away...far, far away.
