    The Rabbi refused to use the name *Palestine,* dismissively calling it "the other side" and no one took offense. Yet when the professor refers to the Rabbi as "the guest," the Rabbi seizes on it, feigns offense, talks over her, and steals the last word from her. Hypocritical much? Entitled much? _False, opportunistic, self-indulgent and pompous_ much?

      It's crazy how this argument is still so complicated these days. There was a time when it was like "ehh.... IDK bro".
      It then eventually progressed to sort of a "hold up what is happening to these Palestinians, they are getting jacked up by the enemy *and* their own people"
      Then over time it was like "ok whatever but maybe Israel should stop those illegal settlements right?"
      .... "Hey can you guys stop that tho."......
      "OK yea America+Israel BFF true true but hey what's up with those settlements tho y'all are like dropkicking families out of houses"
      How come now we're sort of at the advanced stages of "I mean yea that's cool but you're still over there with the illegal settling."
      100 points to whoever can guess what the next stage will be

My experiences here have taught me that power begets power, history is written by those who can afford the pen, and truth is dependent upon whatever resources an individual commits towards the search for it. This was never the standard public school curriculum; we were taught to hope, trust in the basic good will of others, and with hard work anything was possible. Many took this to heart, and now this ‘truth’ has been shattered by the realities of life. We are not just “Americans,” we are human beings that must share and compete with others globally. No longer can we rely on the myth of American exceptionalism. As a country, we cannot hoard the world’s resources to divvy up amongst ourselves. We now are competing with our neighbors, for much less relative to our parents’ standards of living, and yet, we bombard ourselves with images of that which we can never attain. To be an “American,” is really just a term of citizenship; our culture has been torn apart by the same people the masses have been struggling against around the world, those who control the resources, who are always developing new ways to divide us so that we squabble amongst ourselves for any scraps without any sense of the long-term security necessary to realize our true enemy. “Americans” are not the enemy, even if some of the enemies happen to be American.
