Utmost Savagery, But Who Cares, They Don't Kill Jews

Some sobering numbers:

Over a million starving refugees. Real refugees, not welfare witches.

Four million people dead from disease, starvation, and savage warfare since 1996.

U.N. Peacekeepers who cannot keep the peace.

This is the Congo, a mineral rich country which is once again devolving into primal savagery.

But hey, let's keep talking about the Pali Arabs and while we're at it let's give them an additional 7.4 billion dollars to squander.

Why?

Because their enemies are Jews and the Europeans desperately need to wipe away the ghastly, self-incriminating memories of World War II from their blood-stained hands.

Regarding that 7.4 billion in aid, let us be clear: none of the monies will be spent on infrastructure to improve the lives of the ordinary Arab. Much will be swallowed in the black hole of Pali corruption. The balance will be used to purchase weaponry and pay the salaries of terrorists in order to wage war against Israel.

And as always, when that happens, Israel will be blamed for the genocidal violence directed at her because Israel does not cheerfully cooperate with her murderers by dismantling more road blocks, or making even more, er, "painful concessions." Like: national suicide.

P.S. Hey, where's Jimmy Carter? Not in the Congo. You know why? No Jews to blame.

Yet.

Seraphic Secret is private property, that's right, it's an extension of our home, and as such, Karen and I have instituted two Seraphic Rules and we ask commentors to act respectfully.

1. No profanity.

2. No Israel bashing. We debate, we discuss, we are respectful. You know what Israel bashing is. The world is full of it. Seraphic Secret is one of the few places in the world that will not tolerate this form of anti-Semitism.

That's it. Break either of these rules and you will be banned.

Simply shocking. Makes you wonder how many lives in the Congo would be saved if these people had received even a fraction of that money.... How much rice you think $400,000 could buy in a third world nation where the average day's pay is measured in dollars (as opposed to tens, or hundreds of dollars)?

I remember purchasing a challah cover which was the handiwork of then-refugees in Ethiopia awaiting emigration to Israel. It was about 10 years ago, and the price was $40. At the time of the purchase, the representative made a point of saying that the proceeds from the sale would feed the artists' family of 6 for a full month....

Zahava:

As shocking as the slaughter and genocide in Congo is the massive yawn the world directs toward this ongoing atrocity. Believe me, if Jews were involved on any side, there would be hell to pay. But when blacks slaughter blacks, well it is politically way too complicated for world's chattering classes to get involved. Far easier to fall back on the old reliable Arab-Israeli, ahem, conflict and blame the Jooz for, well, breathing.
