Taxpayers' money should not be shoring up greed, corporate corruption, injustice, and war.
The rule of fair and just laws is crucial, for everyone's sake.
So please stop endorsing, empowering, protecting, and arming Israel's
flagrant violations of international law and UNIVERSAL human rights.
UNIVERSAL is a key concept. It is Golden Rule logic- based on treating people the way you want to be treated.
The United Nations (founded after the horrors of the Nazi Holocaust)
is also a key concept and the only definite hope for creating true peace
and security for all of humanity. That is good business. War is not.
Israeli violence and Zionist cruelty are escalating. So is HAMAS
stupidity. Arming religion with lethal weaponry and excuses to kill or
kidnap or displace others is a very VERY bad idea. BAD when Israel does
it, and BAD when HAMAS does it. BAD when America does it too.
Bigotry is a bully tactic that makes the world a very ugly place.
Meanwhile individual people worldwide are a diverse mix of good, bad, and indifferent, regardless of what their passport or ID card might say.
Look for the good and empower peace with justice, not bombs or bigotry.
Empower a just and lasting peace with full respect for Universal Human Rights and the rule of fair and just laws.
Sincerely,
Anne Selden Annab

Sands of Sorrow. 1950 Dorothy Thompson speaks out about the people of Palestine... Palestine Diary "In spit of the efforts made in the documentary to bring attention to the humanitarian issues, it falls short of representing what these refugees needed most, their unquestionable right of return to their homes and towns, not a temporarily humanitarian relief while the Zionist settlers were colonizing and taking over the refugees' towns, farms and homes, and changing the geography and history books."
Dorothy Thompson: The journalist who warned us about Hitler... "There is a great quote, which she makes at the end of her life," says Walther. "She says, 'I had to speak out about this' — meaning attacks on Palestinian civilians — 'for the same reason I had to speak out about Hitler. But my Zionist friends do not seem to understand the universality of simple moral principles.' "
Please, let Golden Rule thinking and the rule of fair and just laws guide US all towards a better way forward.
