PRES. MACRON OF FRANCE CELEBRATES R0SH HASHANAH BY RECOGNIZING PALESTINIAN STATE

 Just at the beginning of Jewish New Year's 5786, France and other nations decide to recognize the state of Palestine. Will they recognize how the duly elected rulers of Gaza prepared for war against Israel, spending $$ to dig underground tunnels to store weapson, and eventually hostages. Hamas and its surprise attack. The Hamas leaders wanted war; they got it. Now they beg the UN, the EU, this group and that for help. Supposed Japan used a surprise attack on Hawaii to get the US into a war. When we began to recover, developed an A-bomb, then other nations start, don't drop the bomb. Japan will only keep half of its Asian conquests. Would Truman accept? Hell no. Neither should we listen to the remnants of the once mighty British Empire. Israel and America should ignore those who seek to cave to terrorists. Think for a moment what the Palestinians and their allies have done to the US --destroyed the twin towers of the World Trade Center in NYC, killing several thousand innocents. And earlier, assassinating Robert Kennedy Sr., just after he won a major primary in California, and might have become the Dem. Nominee for President, and possibly won the office in 1968. Instead, shot dead by a man who said he did it for his country. A gent who heard that left the hotel incredulous, "How could he say such a thing?" Easy. The gent did not know that Sirhan Sirhan was a Palestinian. The solution is dispurse the Gazans amid the numerous Muslim nations, where they can fit in, forget old hatreds, and make new lives.

     To those who contend that the only question today is feeding the people of Gaza, I urge them to recall, the words of former Pres. Obama: elections have consequences.  Equally, if not more important: wars have consequences. too.  Koenigsberg, the home of great German thinkers Kant and Herder, is now a Russian town with a new name.  Why?  Ever hear of WWII?  The USA is no longer a British colony.  Why?  A revolutionary WAR.  The people of Gaza have a solution that will bring peace, "from the river to the sea, Palestine shall be free.'  Translate- from the river to the see, the land shall be Jew-free, as the Nazis used to say.  Meaning, kill all the Jews in the area.  I think a better solution for peace, deport all Gazan from Gaza and disperse them among the many Muslim nations throughout the world where they might build lives without planning a new war against the Jews.
