Spontaneous eruptions

Writing by treason on Sunday, 30 of July , 2006 at 6:22 pm

Yeah, I know it sounds like herpes; it isn’t, but it’s just as annoying. I’m watching the news out of Israel and Lebanon and I have to ask: Did I blink and miss the flyers that al Qaeda dropped throughout the month of August 2001?

“Just a head’s up! We will be flying planes into your World Trade Center, Pentagon, White House, and Capitol on September 11 - you might want to schedule some PTO that day.”

Yet Israel has been warning “innocent” Lebanese civilians to scram because they’re in danger. Who else does that? Like residents of New Orleans, locals are slow to evacuate when told to, yet they have no trouble assembling when it’s time to destroy property. A spontaneous eruption: windows at the office of the U.N. are being smashed. And oh, my, my - what a strange coincidence that another spontaneous eruption is in Gaza. More destruction at the U.N. building there.

So we’re to believe that these spontaneous eruptions are spontaneous? Upset, incensed Muslims run willy-nilly into the streets, but always have the presence of mind to grab their professionally printed signs and international flags before leaving their homes. Hmmmm.

I have access to a computer, Photoshop, and a 24-hour Kinko’s. I keep a room on the side of the house with a stash of flags from every nation, 20×30 photos of world leaders, and an assortment of professionally printed signs in 54 languages. Doesn’t everyone?

Well, maybe not here…but they’re definitely stockpiling protest aids in the Third World. Question: If we are to believe that these innocent civilians live on two dollars a year and are functionally illiterate, where are they getting all these snazzy props? Call me nitpicky, but we are being told daily that Islam is peaceful and loving, so could someone explain to me why so many Islamic nations are anything but?

Last question: what the hell is an “innocent civilian” anyway?
