A Shift in Perception

harry walker | 23.07.2006 21:13 | Indymedia

An old soldiers view of the middle east crisis.How it was and how it is now.

I went for my usual Sunday pint today in the British Legion Club.In the television lounge there was about fifteen old veterans watching Sky news.The story they were watching was about the child victims of the Israeli bombings in Tyre.They were all very quiet and serious,normally they are quite rowdy.Then i heard someone say."They dropped leaflets telling everyone to get out and then they fire missiles at them when they try to"Then another voice ,from one of their oldest and an ex captain said"We fought to protect them from the Nazi's and now they are behaving like them".
That comment was a bit of a shock to me but as i looked around the room every head was nodding in agreement.It seems the israeli's are doing more harm to themselves with the attack on Lebanon and are losing the support of what was their strongest supporters.

Pereceptions Shifts are ZIONAZI Racist Filth OPERATED by Mossad

New Age concepts like Shifts in Perception are Orwellian double-speak for IMPURE religious liberal movements from the 1960's, some of which attempt to UNDERMINE the true purity of revolutionary IRAN by speaking of human rights and other IMPERIALIST concepts which were developed by ZIONAZI fasicstic stooges operating from Tel Aviv. Using the filthy racist NEXUS of groups such as NAACP in Washngton and Radio Luxembourg, these foul Islamophobes NOW attempt to DERAIL the truth from Indymedia. Once Fathers4Justice and other true WOMEN-DISCIPLINERS are in control of the currently BANKRUPT liberal IMPERIALIST progressive movement, there will be a purging of these ZIONAZI elements, whose practitioners will be - ugh! - severlely dealt with.

"Israelis stand almost unanimously behind the decision to wage a new war"

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/5208718.stm

"as many as 90% of Israeli citizens approve of the offensive"

"Voices of dissent are scarce"

"as many as 90% of Israeli citizens approve of the offensive against Hezbollah and want it to continue"

Think if they keep on and on AND ON AND ON about how everyone in the world thinks the war is great, we'll start believing it and agree?

It's like living in a parallel universe. They declare war on terror when they are the cause of it. They say it is self-defense, yet it is Hizbollah and Hamas who defend themselves. They wage war on Iraq just supposedly to bring down mass-murderer Sadaam, yet support mass-murderer Olmert. They spin it all so innocently.
As your old boy said, most of our grandparents/parents faught to stop fascism, now it is being legitimised by the 'democratic' left! More lives having died in vain.

very worried
