I remember you writing that you loved the LotR movies. The way I see it, the US is Theoden (king of Rohan) and Israel is Saruman the Israeli intelligence agency would be Grima (worm tongue)
They use the US as their puppet. Here in the US we think it's the other way around but it's not. The blind unwavering support we give Israel should infuriate our citizenry, but it doesn't. Nobody cares. I think it has something to do with Jesus and a holy land or something... The big, dumb, lovable jock analogy rings true for a bit but even the jock eventually realizes that the same person keeps whispering the same things in his ear. Theoden King eventually wakes up... and when he does, he's pissed. I think Theoden (US) might just come out of it's slumber as it's citizenry wakes up and holds the King accountable. too many competing metaphors in there? probably.
