SHALL WE GO FOR IT ON SHABBOS?
Why not? There's a lot of loose talk going around about "using" Israel to drop a nuclear bomb on Iran. What the fuck is that all about?
Some caveats: Kelso is of Jewish extraction but he has about as much connection to Israel as he does to Slovenia. Kelso doesn't practice religion so he doesn't really see a great need for a majority Jewish state, but with all that in mind here's some friendly advice for the State Of Israel -- you do not want any part of this bombing Iran shit. You appear to have a thriving economy, a functioning democracy, and a well-educated populace, plus all the US aid you can eat. You really want to fuck that up because George Bush tells you to?
Exactly how much benefit to you has Iraq II been? Your country seems to be at the crossroads. You can accept your Palestinian cousins as every cther Western democracy has accepted its immigrants (with fits and starts to be sure) and deal with the whole "majority minority" thing. (Yeah, like any of you are white anyway!). You can figure out a way to turn over a couple of acres of land and negotiate some kind of "Greater Jordan." Keep building a smaller and smaller, tighter and tighter wall around your country. Or you can follow on this course of being Pat Robertson's personal Rottweiler.
Personally, Kelso couldn't give a crap about choices 1-3. He has no relatives there. He has no intention of visiting other than if he has to go as part of a capital raise. The bottom line is that Kelso knows and is close to far more gentiles than Israelis. You all want to blow yourselves in two? Keep at it; you're doing great so far and seem to love every bit of it, up to and including and especially the building of luxury high-rise apartments next to tar-paper hovels. Bulldozing Rachel Corrie? No problem. Everyone seems to have forgotten about that little episode. Want to keep making money hand over fist dealing in the arms trade? Beautiful. Knock yourselves out.
Kelso is a live-and-let-live guy, so he has no intention to preach and he certainly understands that if a Sbarro pizza parlor can be blown up at any time, all is probably fair. But when the idea of dropping a nuclear bomb on Iran at the behest of the Bush Administration and Pat Roberton is on the drawing board, Kelso sez ENOUGH! Now, you're fucking with the rest of the world and the knock-on effects of something like this WILL come back to haunt Kelso and family. Kelso does not have access to Dick Cheney's bunker, but neither do your sorry Sabra asses. So, do the world a favor and think long and hard before going down this path.
Basically, this is scaring the shit out of Kelso.
Kelso's Nuts love you.

Well, lets hope that some of the nightmare scenarios don't play out...
I agree with 'live and let live' but know the actions of one have serious ramifications for the others. Nothing happens in a vacuum. Disturbing possibilities here.
Check in with you this week.
Somehow I don't think that the huge meltdown scenarios are going to happen; there is just too much oil in the Middle East and, moreover, get outside the United States, hit a major European financial center like London, Paris, Geneva or even Madrid and you'll see that Arabs, Jews (Western & Israeli), Persians, etc., get along quite well and are basically in pursuit of filthy lucre together. For better or worse, that's a stopper on this madeness Bush, Condi and Pat are working on.
Another stopper is if you go to most large AMERICAN cities, at least NYC, Boston, Chicago, LA, SF, Philadelphia, Seattle, Baltimore, maybe San Jose, you'll see a tremendous degree of tolerance and friendship among people of all ethnicities, religions & politics or lack thereof.
Crusades V. 2001-2006 are pretty much a fantasy of Bush and the 25% of the American electorate that need to feed their hatred, and of course the mainstream press.
As Iran's baby boom takes over, expect it to look a bit more like Turkey and then maybe Italy in 50 years time. With some luck, Israel will come to its senses and assume its proper roles as the Holland of the Middle East.
A hopeful note to begin the week upon.
Kelso I do hope you are right, and I do think the common pursuit of cash will resonate...
