Hi everybody this is Gatsad earlier this morning I woke up to the tragic

realities that are unfolding in Israel some of you may know that my father comes from a family of 11 children my mother from a

family of 7 children many of whom left many years ago Lebanon and moved to Israel because of the difficulties that Jews increasingly faced

throughout the Middle East, but certainly including in Lebanon, which was perhaps a slightly more tolerant society until it isn't.

Even my grandparents, my paternal grandparents moved to Israel in 1970, I believe.

So I have family all over Israel till today.

You probably can't think of a town or city where there isn't some kin presence of mine and so it's of course a difficult period because you want to make sure that all your loved ones are safe.

Albeit of course any loss of innocent life, even those

that you don't know is tragic on any side of any conflict.

I won't hash here the reality of what is driving what took place today.

I've waited in countless other contexts.

Chapters 1, 6 and 7 of the parasitic mind, I get into some of the reasons that would

fully and completely explain why the reality is unfolding, the current reality that's unfolding in Israel is unfolding in the manner that it is and has been for many, many years, but it has been actually for 1400 years but any

case all I'm going to do right now is read two quotes from Goldamayor who was the

Prime Minister of Israel from, I think, 1969 to 1974.

There are two quotes that are very poignant that perfectly capture what the reality is.

So here we go.

If the Palestinians lay down their weapons,

there will be peace.

If the Israelis lay down their weapons, there will be peace if the Israelis lay down their weapons there will be a massacre.

That's quote one and quote two peace will come when the Arabs will love their children

more than they hate us."
