      We got to see what happens when Israel tries fighting someone who actually hits back

        Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.

          zionists are proficient in media propaganda but as some events are clearly impossible to defend with logic and a call to sympathy with events long past, most, if not all of their credibility has vanished like a morning mist on a day without the influence of a distant forest fire.
