19.1.14

No Mas

Maybe I should have seen this coming. I lambaste the settlers quite often, and rightfully so. They're the ones chiefly responsible for imposing their messianic visions on the rest of us, and for destroying this country from the inside after all. But sometimes, even they still manage to shock me in ways that I wouldn't believe them to be capable of, which is saying a lot.

Take for example, Orit Arfa, an American-Israeli settler who made heads roll just last month with her beyond insane remake of Miley Cyrus' anthem of sorts 'We Can't Stop', attempting to justify Jewish biblical claims to Judea and Samaria, or to the rest of us, the West Bank. Well, unfortunately, she's back at it again, and not surprisingly it's another epic train wreck. This time to coincide with the passing of Ariel Sharon, she decides to cry a river over the 2005 disengagement and removal of settlers from Gaza and small parts of the West Bank. Because, of course, continual occupation of the Palestinian territories is a great plan for the future of Israel, and using biblical reasons to justify it makes perfect sense in modern political discourse.

I wish I could say this is a joke. If there is anything positive to take from all of this though, at least it's garnered more dislikes than likes on YouTube. That's just a start hopefully.
