Why the west supports Israel
by Matt Giwer, © 2006 [Apr 4]

I really do not understand why all the pundits do not state the obvious from exactly what Israel has said. That statement is "They have the oil but we have the matches." And it clearly and openly refers to the Israeli threat to nuke the oil fields if the West does not protect it.

This threat has been around since before Nixon decided to support Israel in 1973 during its war. I do not understand why people say they do not understand the political hold of Israel on the US. As Dune said, the Spice must flow. The oil must flow.

He who controls a thing owns a thing. If the oil fields can be destroyed and the land made radioactive then Israel controls middle oil. And Israel openly says if it goes down it will take oil with it.

I do not see why people pretend this promise does not exist.

These are all Dune series references. What do you think Herbert copied for his stories? The oil must flow. The spice must flow. If the oil does not flow all commerce ceases as if the spice did not flow.

I am not saying look to fiction or Herbert for fact, rather simply look to the threat to bring down the world by stopping Mideast oil production as Israel has stated it will do.
