palestine/israel is our problem

we should fix it.  we refuse to leash our dog, but we can make it right any time we want.  of course we don't want to, but it would be really fucking easy.  cut off military aid to both sides, demand peace in exchange for aid of any kind.  neither side can survive for 30 seconds without the largess of the united states, so if either side doesn't like it, then let them beg for handouts elsewhere in the world.  pretty easy, but we don't want to solve the problem.  we like the vicious dog.  we don't like the dirty poor people, and we like to see their children slaughtered in the street.  we get a special feeling when we sell the murder machines to our attack dogs and they use them.
