There can be no doubt that
Hezbollah won this war "hands down" but so could have Israel
completely decimated each and every Hezbollah cell without having to risk a
single Israeli soldier without even having to unleash its nuclear arsenal.
But what price would Israel
have to pay in the future had it avoided altogether a single Israeli casualty
just using its Air Force that has total domination over the skies to follow the
tactics of the Americans during the Vietnam War and blanket-bombed the entire
border area that is soon going to be under the control of foreign peacekeepers?
To achieve an everlasting
peace one has to examine the "money trail"
specifically United States Dollars that go "back and forth" between
"friend and foe" not just in the Middle East but throughout
the world ultimately resulting in the least productive nation on earth, i.e.
the
Perpetual violence can end
resulting in perpetual peace once understanding that the only thing backing the
United States Dollar is its so visibly weakened military whose front line of
defense is the very beleaguered State of Israel who again could have fought
this one battle very differently, its generals sending the loudest message ever
not to Hezbollah who knew well before taking two Israeli soldiers hostage that
its rockets could hit places like Hedera south of Haifa that they also knew
would end up being evacuated but to the citizens of the United States to wake
up to the realities of their SIGNIFICANTLY
overvalued currency increasingly NOT
APPRECIATED by those oil producing countries who have for no “good reason”
been “fooled” into accepting a currency that has increasingly no “backing”.
The decision by the United
States to officially abandon the Gold Standard 35 years ago today was not a
hastily taken decision given how it had it roots going back to 1913 one year
before the outbreak of World War I that to be intellectually honest was also
about oil.
Trusting the United States
Federal Reserve whose only requirement when executing the monetary policy of
the
The State of Israel made up
of mostly Jewish people living in harmony for the most part with Arab Israelis
brings a whole lot more to the “bargaining table” than its military mite having
turned a desert without any oil in to what is unquestionably a land flowing of
milk and honey, all its peoples working and singing together with one common
goal of “To Life” which combined with our Arab brothers and sisters
sitting atop the oil that everyone else wants makes for a “marriage made in heaven”
so long as there is no interference from the outside.
