Israel-Cuba Love Affair [?] Ends
Israel has never adopted principles in accepting supposed friendships. Rare are people as opportunistic as Zionists, and as cynical! This is a nation, for instance, which attacks every one of its critics as anti-Semites. Zionists have yet to meet an honest critic with concerns for the Palestinians who isn't either a Jew-hater of a self-hating Jew. Think it about: Zionism is prejudice and hatred and disregard for the rights of Arabs. But Zionists accuse people who are opposed to Zionist bigotry as being bigots. Zionists use the smear of bigotry to silence people who note the racism at the heart of Zionism. Zionists think that they should be allowed to commit crimes, impose apartheid and adhere to racist norms without anyone raising objections. They say so themselves. Abe Foxman, head of the Anti-Defamation League, has stated that because of the Holocaust Israel should in effect be immune from criticism. Right. Because of the Nazi crimes against Jews somehow Israeli crimes against an innocent third-party - the Palestinians - should be allowed. Try to accept that logic. Then you'll understand the moral depravity of Zionism.

But Israel has never shied away from accepting friendships from actual anti-Semites. The Evangelical Christians in America, many of whom are antisemitic, are major supports of Israel which Israel eagerly courts. Anwar Sadat, the Egyptian dictator whom Zionists love, was a Jew hater and Nazi. And Israel's collaborator in Ramallah, Mahmoud Abbas, is a Holocaust denier.
But Israel is so desperate for friends it will accept anti-Semites provided they say a few pro-Zionist words. Case in point Fidel Castro. No one should say any nice words about a aging dictator like Castro. The man is vile and regrettably not dead already. And he has been no supporter of Israel but because he recently expressed some sympathetics words towards Jews (which are normal sympathetics words about Jewish suffering that any decent person would concur with and have nothing to do with Zionism and one's views on Israel) the Israeli government made it seem that Castro was somehow pro-Zionist. That's of course stupid. Jews and Zionism are two different things. One can be philosemite and anti-Zionist. One can be deeply moved by the Holocaust and not support Zionism, which is a crime itself.
But Israel takes them where they get them and thought that Castro was now planning a trip to Tel Aviv for retirement. Its president and prime minister both sent letters to Cuba expressing praise for the dictator and recently Israel seemed to be keen to try to open some sort of diplomatic relations with Cuba. But in comes a Cuban Congresswoman:
US House Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen helped shut down a recent diplomatic opening between Israel and Cuba, according to Politico.
Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.), the incoming chairwoman of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, let Israel know she was displeased with the possible rapprochement, Politico reported. The congresswoman is a Cuban exile and violently opposed to Cuban leader Fidel Castro.
And Israel pretends that it is more than a U.S. client. This Congresswoman is one of the most fanatically pro-Israel members of Congress, a vile and hateful neo-con.
But it makes sense that Israel would seek an alliance from Castro, as if it would deliver anything, since the rest of the decent world is more and more shunning the Usurping Zionist Entity:
The Norwegians, led by the country’s national soccer coach, signed a petition demanding a cultural and academic boycott of Israel, accusing its educational institutions of “playing a key role in the occupation” and equating it with apartheid.
Egil Drillo Olsen, coach for the national Norwegian soccer team, recently wrote in Aftenposten, the country’s second largest paper, that the call to boycott Israel was "in line with what 90 percent of the world’s population believes. There cannot be many other opinions."
The petition is the last item in a string of similar and high-profile initiatives to have taken place in Norway over the past two years. It was signed by coach Olsen and 99 other public figures from the arts and culture arena, who stated that a boycott is "necessary" not only to help Palestinians, but also to "support Israelis opposing the occupation."
The days of Zionism are thinning now. How appropriate that a dying oppressive state would seek in its last days an alliance with a dying oppressive leader.
