Welcome to Buster's Blog

Irregular commentary on whatever's on my mind -- politics, sports, current events, and life in general. After twenty years of writing business and community newsletters, fifteen years of fantasy baseball newsletters, and two years of email "columns", this is, I suppose, the inevitable result: the awful conceit that someone might actually care to read what I have to say. Posts may be added often, rarely, or never again. As always, my mood and motivation are unpredictable.

Great Middle East Peace Plan, Jared


Jared's much-ballyhooed Middle East peace plan?

"Praise Jesus!
Oh, am I in Israel?  Oops."
"I'm a big boy now.
And Mueller's on the other side of
the world."
Make Daddy Kushner, daddy-in-law Drumpf, Sheldon Adelson, Bibi the Belligerent, and every far-right crankshaft happy.  Do whatever they say.  Support moving the American embassy in Israel to the disputed territory of Jerusalem, a FU flip-off to long-suffering, ripped off Palestinians.  Travel to Jerusalem for today's opening of the Jerusalem embassy.  Allow Robert Jeffress, an idiotic American evangelical bigot preacher who insists that Jews and all non-Christians are going straight to hell, to give the opening prayer.  Take part in hours of self-congratulatory, chest-thumping speechification.  Make sure every speaker refers to Jerusalem as the "capital" of Israel.  Make no mention of a two-state solution to this perpetual deadlock.

And definitely pay no attention to the mass protests against the Jerusalem move in the Gaza Strip, where 2 million Palestinians are blockaded in a decades-old de facto refugee camp.  Ignore their pathetic circumstances, their slingshots and stone-throwing.  Look the other way as Israeli troops gun them down today, killing 50 or more and wounding almost 2000.  Just express your "hope for peace" and blame the Palestinians for everything.

As your daddy-in-law tweeted, "Big day for Israel."  Lousy day for Middle East peace.
