Boycotting the Fist, Avoiding the Body

The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Movement (BDS) aims at boycotting Israel. While the vicious, degenerate and psychopathic Israelis who have been killing, maiming, imprisoning, torturing and terrorizing the Palestinians for decades should be boycotted, they are but the fist on the body of power. The USA supports, supplies and protects the beast and controls what it does and doesn’t do. Without the USA and its military-corporate complex (MIC) Israel cannot survive.

Shouldn’t American corporate power also be boycotted?

Israel is a sweetheart deal for MIC. It takes the heat off the USA and promotes its military, economic and strategic interests. People boycott oranges and Soda Stream, not McDonalds and Coke. The $billions in aid given to Israel every year goes right into the pockets of MIC without ever going through the already bloated military budget.

With all that money MIC can afford to spend $millions promoting the illusion that Israel determines USA policy. Americans are all to eager to believe this nonsense; it’s the other guys fault not ours. They complain about the AIPAC lobby but seem perfectly comfortable with their chicken-shit government officials who bath in the bribes, and hide their heads up their asses when confronted with the actual tiny size of AIPACs lobby compared to the military industries, not to mention other lobby groups. To get an idea of AIPAC’s size, look at its embassy (13 km from the White House) in Washington DC compared to the Saudis (4 km)! If the Israel Embassy was alongside the Saudi Embassy it would look like the servants quarters.

By all means boycott Israel, but don’t forget who is holding its leash.
