For Fucks Sake, stop giving them weapons

Edit: I'm reading the reader comments. Probably half the people are saying "stop sending Israel weapon you absolute nerds", and those comments are getting the most likes. So that's something.

      For many years, the United States was the only country that could bring constructive pressure to bear on both Israel and Arab states. It engineered the 1978 Camp David Accords that brought peace between Israel and Egypt, and the Israel-Jordan peace of 1994. Just over three decades ago, Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin of Israel and Yasir Arafat, the chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization, shook hands on the White House lawn in the name of peace, only for the fragile hope of that embrace to erode steadily.

      This is the fiction they need to keep writing.

        Every time I read stuff like this I think about the infomercial where the guy's carrying 50 pounds of food and trying to sit down on his couch. He's stumbling, food is flying everywhere, his task is obviously impossible because he's chosen to carry all this shit. The clear solution is to stop carrying so much, but that can't be the answer because he's entitled to all his treats!
