Onward Christian Soldiers! Religion can truly make an ass of human beings. Thus, in the name of religion, some Muslims will blow themselves up to make a political point. In a similar vein, for religious loyalties, many Christians, even from places like Africa will hail the outrageous actions of Israel, both in the Palestinian territories, and on the high seas, to enforce an inhuman blockade, that seeks to collectively punish the Palestinians in the name of Israeli security.
One could imagine these Christians being absolutely sympathetic with an Israeli version of the insane Adolf Hitler, if he was today gassing Palestinians to death in the name of security. Many of these Christians, especially from Africa, where superstition still reigns will today be hailing such a Hitler as a tool of the Almighty God, in bringing about the ancient prophecies, with regard to his promise to Abraham. In that regard, William Blake's words regarding evil and divine creation, might be the only compelling wisdom, when it comes to making sense of the senseless.
Of course, the United States will stand with Israel, because that is the way politics is played in the United States, where the Jewish lobby and zany Christian movements, could be expected to make a lot of noise, spend a lot of political capital to paint an American president, who does not follow the orthodoxy, which says that what is good for the Jewish state is good for the United States, as a lover of Arab terrorists, or an anti-Christian ideologue, betraying the American national interest, as they imagine it in their twisted understanding of history and high politics.
The interesting thing is that in considering the geo-political implications of these matters, one could at least have some respect for the Christian soldiers in the United States, who might be called the Christian Taliban, in their penchant for the inhumane, when it comes to the treatment of the Palestinians by the Jewish state. The Africans present a great puzzle, because theirs is a mindless loyalty, borne out of what we might call cultural imperialism, nothing more; and these Africans bask in its glorious hell.
I thank you.
