The Great Escape

Did you ever see the movie The Great Escape? It celebrates the efforts of allied POWs who tried to escape from a German prison camp during World War 2 by digging tunnels under the perimeter fence:

There are now almost 2 million POWs in Gaza who have dug tunnels under the perimeter fence Israel has erected around their land:

"The heart of Israeli fear"? You can't be serious.


I challenge anyone to watch The Great Escape and then compare the alleged conditions in the German POW camp to the actual conditions in Gaza. Unless you're an American or Israeli zombie, I think you'll come to the same conclusion I have: the Israelis are treating the Gazans far worse than the conditions shown in the movie.


One thing, however, is the same in both the movie and Gaza - most of the prisoners who are trying to escape will be killed.


What does that tell you about our Israeli "buddies"?


Q: By the way, what do we get in return for the billions of dollars they steal from us each year?


A: They spit in our faces and ask for more.


Maybe it's time we escaped from the mental prison the Israeli have put us in. Now that would be a "great escape".
