Sadly, there is a huge Dichotomy in who we can talk to without knowing and who we must support without questioning.

Speaking out against the US Israeli lobby’s de facto “we can do no wrong, don’t question our actions” brands you a Nazi sympathesier. The atrocities of the past are never far from the perceptions of the present and the “right” to offer objective dissent or tempered criticism is treated as an attack on their very existence.

Advocating communication with the “enemy” Iran, where a majority of the people themselves love the principle of America & who also held vigils in the streets of Tehran mourning the atrocities of 9-11, where the Iranian government held out a hand in support to hunt down Osama bin Laden and rid Afghanistan of the true terrorists, al-queda, but had the outstretched hand of reconciliation sliced off in the slammed shut door of ideology courtesy of George Bush & his administration.

This is the atrocity of US-Isreali & US-Iranian relations. One is do as I say and you have no right to question, the other is listen to what I know even though I have nothing to base my “knowledge” on!

As one is reminded ad nausea of the past & hardships of the Jewish people via movie, text & speech, there is no information available to either prove or disprove that the “enemy” is in fact an enemy. I would encourage all who have not already done so to either read the book Persopolis or see the movie Ignorance and blind following is not the answer.
