BRITAIN, IRELAND, "PEACE" MONGERING, AND ISRAEL: THE OPERA AIN''T OVER TILL THE FAT LADY SINGS.

WHAT DOES THE "PEACE" MONGERING IN NORTHERN IRELAND HAVE TO DO WITH THE "PEACE" MONGERING IN ISRAEL?

A few days ago Martin McGuinness appeared on the Charlie Rose Show. The peace and reconciliation process that former Senator Michel brokered in Ireland continues, and in recent years Protestant Ian Paisley together with Jerry Adams and Martin McGuinness of Shin Fein have "become close friends", says Martin McGuiness, as the three have led the Peace. Charlie Rose asked First Minister Martin McGuinness, whether or not in his opinion a similar peace and reconciliation was possible in Israel between the Israelis and the "Palestinians", and McGuinness responded in the affirmative.

Putting aside a comparison-contrast analysis of the two very different conflicts, there is one great common denominator: British Imperialism and Occupation. We know the historical suffering of the Irish and the Scots at the hands of the British. We know the suffering of the Palestinian Jews and Arabs at the hands of the British (aided and abetted by the French). So it should be clear that the Irish, the Israelis, and the Palestinian Arabs have an historical common enemy: The British.

It has famously been said that, "The opera ain't over until the fat lady sings!" For years now British rhetoric about Israel has been profoundly fraudulent and negative towards Israel, gathering great momentum in the past several years, even achieving a war-like tone in recent months. The British continue to belove the Arabs and to quietly encourage peace in Ireland between the Protestants and the Catholics. This Blog isn't so confident as Martin McGuinness with respect to the "peace" in Northern Ireland, as this Blog is profoundly distrustful of the British. This Blog speculates that the British are using the Irish and the Arabs and perhaps the Persians as well in order to pressure Israel into self-destruction. British propaganda increasingly puts Israel in the awkward position of having to choose between two self-destructive options: surrender Judea-Samaria and incurr the undeniable security risks of doing so, or do-not surrender Judea-Samaria and face world condemnation. Once Israel self-destructs on either "choice" and the British and French regain their former foothold on the MIddle East to "protect" the Jewish survivors, the British will again turn their force against the Arabs and against the Irish. This Blog suggests to Martin McGuinness that the Irish beware the "Fat Lady" that is Great Britain.
