Has anyone mentioned that Walter Williams is one of the biggest Uncle Toms in the history of the United States? He's right up there with Clarence "Uncle" Thomas, "Uncle" Thomas Sowell, Larry "Tom" Elder, Armstrong "Shine" Williams, LaShaun "Aunt Jemima" Barber, and other "prominent" so-called "Black Republicans". Of course they can support the indentured servitude of a race of people - they advocate it every day for African-Americans!
I, sadly, am also coming to regret voting for Obama. As an African-American, it is painful for me to watch his spinelessness.
I am just beginning (since last ten years - that's late to the game) to understand the suffering of the Palestinians. What is being done to them is simply unjust and wrong. The U.S. policy is simply one-sided and wrong. However, I have learned enough to separate Zionism from just merely grouping all Israelis into one generic category. The U.S. should be leading the battle in bringing the Goldstone Report to the fore.
In an effort to understand, what is the solution? Michael Moore suggested passive civil disobedience. Would that work? Is the "two-state solution" a real solution, or should Palestinians demand their rights as citizens of Israel? I support the Palestinians in their goal of attaining human rights (as Malcolm X once said, "not civil rights, but HUMAN rights!")
