Stop dreaming the impossible Dream

Imagine yourself dreaming that you won the lottery ... the one that carries a prize in the hundreds of millions of dollars. You now live in a mansion, and you own several businesses that pay you a million dollars a week in salary. You have a security ring around the mansion that nobody can penetrate. You also employ a team of henchmen whom you use to go after your enemies and your competitors.

Your neighbor, who lives in a small house, is the kid you grew up with. He was bigger than you; stronger, better looking, richer … and he had all the girls coming to him when you couldn't find one that would date you. So now that you have all this money, you make yourself look bigger than you really are; also strong and good looking. As a bonus, the girls come to you not because of the money you have but because, they say, you have a charming personality. And this is why you spend all that money on them.

You instruct your henchmen to go after the neighbor and ruin his life without leaving a trace that would cause him to suspect you, or lead a police investigation to your doorstep. And one day, that neighbor of yours – the old “friend” you always hated – comes to you and begs for help. He needs a job, he says, and he needs your protection because someone, he doesn't know who, is after him. So you take the opportunity to humiliate him by putting down conditions you know he cannot meet.

And just before he gets down to his knees, you wake up to the sound of your clock-radio. You hear a strange kind of talk coming out that thing. It is a talk that makes you believe you're still dreaming. You wipe your eyes but the talk persists. You turn off the radio and run to the living room where you turn on the TV. And there, in full color, you see your miserable neighbor being interviewed live in front of his house because he just won the lottery of millions you were dreaming about.

It would be cruel if this happened, would it not? Well, the reality is that something like it just happened on the world stage. The dreamers are the Jews who dreamed about an Israel that was so powerful it could blow Iran past the horizon with a simple wave of the finger. But now that the dreamers woke up from their self-induced dream, they are discovering that it is Iran which is bigger, stronger, more attractive and richer than Israel. It is also Iran that has the businesses of the world flocking to it. And all this is happening at a time when Israel is failing in its effort to prevent the world from boycotting it.

You'll get a sense of what the dreaming Jews are feeling now that Israel has been unmasked as the pauper nation of the world, when you read Benny Avni's article which came under the title: “Why Obama will let Iran violate the nuke deal,” published on October 21, 2015 in the New York Post.

Now that the Jews in Israel and elsewhere have waken up from their deep sleep, you find them whine the fact that on Oct. 10, Iran tested a “medium-range ballistic missile inherently capable of delivering a nuclear weapon.” The irony is that decades previous to that, the Israelis had borrowed a rocket and a satellite from the US, launching them into space from Israel. And the Jews around the world celebrated the event with loud fanfare as if Israel had produced the satellite and the rocket.

They who had conned the World into believing they possessed an arsenal of nuclear weapons ready to drop on their enemies – now sought to make the Arab and Muslim worlds believe that Israel mass produced the rocket that took the satellite into space. And they warned their imagined enemies with these words: “think of what else we can do with that rocket.”

Now that these folks have waken up you can imagine what they must be feeling as they read Benny Avni's assertion: “The Iranians are not shaking in their boots. The mullahs published images that depict an array of shiny-looking missiles stashed in a deeply dug tunnel, awaiting launch command.”

The poor buggers thought that Israel was the juggernaut that made the neighbors tremble, but found that Israel is the one that's trembling. Why is that? Because “America has no intention of toppling Khamenei's clerical system.” Worse, Obama is “striking a deal that enhances Iran's financial and military capabilities.”

This is why Avni and all those like him hope that “the next president [of the US] will at least give Khamenei reason to be paranoid about regime change.” What a pathetic bunch!
