Mr. IfAmericansKnew.org – Your logic leaves much to be desired. America is on its way to become a third world nation that is poorer than Sudan because of its blind support to Israel? That is preposterous! Relative to the amount we spend overall, what we spend to support Israel is peanuts. The fact that some Muslims are mad at us because we support Israeli is almost irrelevant. If it was not Israel, it would be something else.

Our problem with Muslims is we buy too oil from them. It is a bad mistake to be so dependent on such an unreliable source. Our fiscal problems come from too much government, not support for Israel.

Whether Mr. Pal E. Stine was the original owner of the house is debatable. In any event, the Israelis did not drive out Mr. Pal E. Stine. When the Israelis decided to establish the Israeli state, he left on his own accord. Why can I say that? One reason there is a substantial number of Arab citizens in Israel is many Arabs chose to stay.

The poster forgot to mention one simple fact …

Mr. Pal E. Stine was the original owner of the house and it was robbed by Mr. Isra Elis.

America is on its way to become a third world nation that is poorer than Sudan because of its blind support to Israel. Billions of our tax dollars go to Israel to kill innocent women and children.

Now we do not have enough money to support ourselves and our own falling economy / country!

We are trying to please 6 Million Israelis which is making 1.5 Billion (yes Billion) Moslims upset … no wonder we have the worst economic crisis ever … because we have f****d up priorities!

So keep supporting Israel to kill Pal E. Stine and the Stine family and we Americans maybe begging food stamps from smarter nations soon!

Sarcasm is made amusing by our slowest to get the joke. Sarcasm only becomes tragic when we refuse to see the humor.

Let me add that sadly, there are so many people who would make the most heinous choices that we can’t assume they are being sarcastic. We say, “They can’t be serious!” but in fact, they are.

The rest of the post didn’t strike me as sarcastic, so the selections didn’t either.

Sarcasm is one of those things that doesn’t always translate well in writing unless you’re Jonathan Swift who used irony and satire in such a way that few of us could ever hope to emulate.
