In a column that can not be described as Politically Correct, Jackie Mason and Raoul Felder take on the Religion of Peace, and show us the best we can expect:
Of course, not all Muslims participate in violence or even express joy at the perpetration of violence against the West in general, or Americans in particular, just as all Germans in the forties did not believe when they heard their anthem, Deutschland uber alles, that it meant literally that Germany must conquer all other nations. Some Germans embraced a passive longing for Germany to be victorious; some few actually despised fascism, and some, an almost non-existent few acted against it. So it is with Islam and the Muslims. About the best the civilized world can expect is a joyous but passive reaction to the mindless violence.
So tomorrow I go to Israel to stay a week with my friends, to this nation that has inspired a mysterious but definite hatred for my friends and their country. I tell my friends in America not to worry, that I won’t be living in trenches, spending my days avoiding mortar fire. Life goes on there, every single day, in a way more positive than most armchair observers are willing to believe.
I’ll visit the beach in Jaffa, I’ll go spend Shabbat with friends in Jerusalem, I’ll be shown the insides of more coffee houses and bars than I’ll want to count right now (especially the bars! I’m trying to be good — really!). And yes, I’ll occasionally have a nagging bit of worry in the back of my mind that something may happen. But I don’t want the palestinians to win, and I’m no soldier. The only way I can help defeat them is to join my friends for a bit of a visit, and live day-to-day life with them.
