Weapons Make the War

“One war over, Netanyahu heading to D.C.,” Minnesota Star Tribune, July 7. If a super-superpower did a “war” upon the U.S., and the U.S. was defenseless to the super-superpower’s weaponry, wold the Star Tribune report on it in such a nonchalant way, the way my hometown paper describes and reports on Israel’s 12-day “war” upon Iran?

How easy to do “war” in the Middle East for the U.S. and Israel, since the U.S. and Israel control every aspect of “war” thanks to the luxury of having superior “war” weaponry. “Oh, that was a ‘war’ and that is why we were free to kill and destroy. And the reason why we are so eager to do these very long ‘wars’ in the Mideast is because our ‘enemies’ cannot kill us as well as we can kill them, so the truth is, we actually like doing these ‘wars’ upon defenseless Muslims; it’s good for U.S. and Israeli business.”
