The Man From Galilee Takes Stock of the Situation
The Man From Galilee came back to have a look around. He sized things up slowly, and then he said: “This is insane. I am absolutely appalled by what I see going on here.”
“You have put the planet at grave risk of annihilation. You have thousands of nuclear weapons on hair-trigger alert in missile silos and on aircraft. You have nuclear submarines—undetectable—roaming the seas and ready to launch. Whether by accident, human error, or an act of stupidity, you are a hair’s-breadth away from destroying all life and civilization. Have you gone mad?” asked the Prince of Peace.
There was no reply.
“America is most to blame for this,” spoke the Nazarene. “Of course there are many bad actors, but America has the power to end the nuclear arms race and do away with nuclear weapons, but your government thwarted every overture for peace and disarmament. America has a bigger military budget than the next nine or ten nations combined. America has military bases and CIA bases in over 160 nations. Your so-called United States of America is the greatest threat to peace and stability on the planet.”
“Your Christian Zionists make me roll over laughing,” declared the Man From Galilee. “Do these people really believe that God will come back to Earth and swoop them up in a cosmic rapture…but only after the land called Palestine has all of its Muslims removed? And then the Jews living there, according to this mass delusion, will convert to Christianity—and those who fail to do so will be eliminated. How did you come up with this twisted fantasy? There are tens of millions of these Christian Zionist nut-jobs in the USA. They lend their support and funnel taxpayers’ billions to Israel to carry out its ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.”
“Israel has forfeited its right to exist—a right which it never really had in the first place,” said the Nazarene. “With the flattening of Gaza’s infrastructure, the murder of 200,000-plus Palestinians (not 35,000), the withholding of food and water to bring about starvation and famine, the destruction of nearly all Palestinian hospitals, schools, houses, and community bakeries, Israel has shown the world its true colors. It’s an ugly sight.”
Spoke the Holy One: “You need to give the land back to its rightful owners. The United Nations partition plan of 1947 awarded the Zionist Jews over half the land—and all the fertile land, even though they were only around one-quarter of the population. The Zionists knew they needed to be in the majority in order to create a theocratic Jewish nation-state, so they launched a systematic terror campaign between 1947 and 1949, demolishing 570 Palestinian towns, villages, cities and urban neighborhoods, bulldozing and setting fire to Palestinians’ homes or stealing and occupying them, carrying out more than 50 cold-blooded Zionist massacres of Palestinian men, women and children, and forcing around 800,000 people—half the non-Jewish population—into exile.”
“I say unto you, Give the land back to the original inhabitants and their children a
