Israel Is At War With Itself

In their case the blacks, for whatever justification, have gone on the rampage and are taking their hate out on the whites as if they, the blacks, are innocent victims. And the whites are sucking it up, behaving as if they are guilty as sin even if they don’t have a racist bone in their body. That’s not the way to solve their problem. The whites are being fed wholesale lies and they are accepting the guilt complex, claiming sins they do not possess. 

That’s not strength. That’s a weakness. That’s not honesty. That’s self-induced fraud, the worst type of fraud you can possess. But don’t say this openly. You will be branded a racist and extremist for expressing common sense.

This does not solve problems. It merely exacerbates them. This must not happen in Israel. It must not happen in Israel for existential reasons.

Here, in Israel, most people, on both sides of the divide, are generally decent, hard-working people, now struggling with a problem in which both sides have their share of guilt.

But you don’t solve the problem by duking it out on the street. You don’t solve the problem by letting mobs torch other people’s property. You certainly don’t solve the problem by taking the law into your own hands and go hunting for the vulnerable other in order to lynch him. You don’t solve the problem by destroying the other’s places of worship. And you don’t solve the problem by going after the men and women in uniform who are there to restore calm even if it means isolating violent instigators and, if necessary, arresting them for their crimes against society.

And you certainly don’t solve the problem by elevating the violent into some sort of social justice warrior while denigrating the other side as racist. Neither side are victims. They are cowardly bullies and thugs that hunt in packs.

Here in Israel we must call both sides of this thuggery the racists that they are.

Let’s not be America. Let’s be honest here. Let’s call a spade the bloody shovel that it is. There is racism going on – on both sides of the street war here in Israel.
