AS the Ukrainian situation continues to develop , and coinciding with the PM of Israel's visit to Washington , to boost the biggest lobbying machine (AIPAC ) . I cannot but notice our elected representatives total insensitivity to injustice in all it's aspects .
WE are appalled and we strongly condemn Russian actions and aggressions against Ukraine , Syria , and Georgia in the near past . But entirely fail to mention or recognize similarities to these situations with the Israeli policies and their brutal actions toward the Palestinian population under Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories in the west bank .
What the majority of Americans value most is fair play . This total insensitivity to injustice and the blind eye of all our elected representatives and our media toward what we daily witness of the Israeli continued policies of occupation , brutality and apartheid toward Palestinians .
WE must in all honesty correct this imbalance , if we want to have the moral rectitude to condemn Russian aggressions , we must remind ourselves and our elected representatives that acting within the boundaries of correctness is the norm , and not living under self imposed blindness , fear , and total lie .
WE can no longer stand by in silent assent as to what concerns the Israeli behavior , and object and condemn similar or often lesser actions of other aggressors .
Had to remind myself and my readers of the situation we're in , remembering the shameful behavior of our representatives in congress , during the last visit of the same Israeli PM . Let's hope he does not elect to address congress this time , and further embarrass and shame our country . Thank you all .
