References :- Israeli propaganda machine , the Hasbara , has made a video featuring young Israeli children threatening the " Freedom Flotilla ", especially crew member Greta Thunberg .
Dear Mr Netanyahu ,
The aid ship , " Madleen " has not turned it's stern on Gaza, despite threats of being attacked by the IDF . The IDF has a rich tradition of such attacks over the years , during which many humanitarians have been killed , so one must salute the courage of the crew members .
On this occasion we note that you have decided to use children to threaten the flotilla , with the hope of gleaning support from the world community . Sadly , that plan has backfired . It seems that folk are sickened by videos of brainwashed children threatening humanitarian workers . I know that might seem strange to you , but that is the world we live in these days .
My son , Ken junior , found the video so creepy that he said it reminded him of a book by John Wyndham called " The Midwich Cuckoos " . Personally I have never read the tome , but apparently it features a great number of evil children . Ken junior has a proclivity for resorting to hyperbole , so don't take that remark too seriously . In any case , Gabbo reckons Ken junior's analogy is off target completely . Gabbo says that your Hasbara video reminds him more of a short story by Stephen King , called
" Children of the Corn " .
" Those kids remind me of the kids in Stephen King's short story " Children of the Corn " , Gabbo said .
" Never heard of it . " , I said .
Anyway Mr Netanyahu , I think the point is that your use of children as human shields is not working , and it might be a good idea to remove the video from the interweb and try a different tactic .
Here's a thought . That little vessel can't carry much food . Probably barely enough tucker to feed a few dozen kids for a week . Why not let it arrive safely in Gaza ? Folk might read that as an indication of a legitimate concern for the well being of starving Palestinian children . You could get the cameras out and shoot a few minutes of video footage showing the flotilla arriving safely before the IDF starts its usual shooting with snipers . Naturally you would claim that you were trying to prevent looting by Hamas .
I know it must be galling to see how much of the world supports the flotilla , but for now your best bet is to pretend to run with it .
Your comrade , Ken .
PS . How are you going with the pettifoggers who are trying to keep you out of jail for corruption .... and is it also treason for funding Hamas ? I hear Israeli prisons are harshly administered , so don't hesitate to pay them well , even if they are thieving rogues .
