Two culprits and one enabler

Yesterday, something big happened in America; did you catch it? It seems we're cooking up a "recipe for disaster". Someday, you or your children and grandchilden will have to sit down at the table.

Do you care? I do. Been following this one, for quite a while now. Ignorance is bliss is not for me. International news and law aren't beyond me...

You may have biases, but if you're a true friend, you shout a warning when your friend is getting into trouble. If not, you cite "loyalty" and back your buddy, even though you can see he is in the wrong -- taking something that doesn't belong to him without providing proper compensation.

Isn't it natural then, to expect others will pursue justice too? "Justice, justice you shall pursue."

Is the rhetoric, the spin away from the facts, the fear of terrorism so strong that my thinking brothers and sisters dare not speak out?

Do you know the power of having or being a true friend, I mean really? Someone who will be there and care about you in the very long run?

If you're not strong enough to speak up now, if you think loyalty means blindly supporting your pal, if ignorance is bliss ... well save your tears.

The problem is with the second part of the proposal: to retain several large settlement blocs in the Palestinian West Bank. That's a recipe for disaster.
