Debugging the 'Peace Program'

At YNet, IT (that's Information Technology for all of you who are not techies or married to techies) professional L.M. Berkowitz writes that if 'Peace Program' were a computer program it would never even have been released in beta format.

Hat Tip: NY Nana

Let’s just say that not even Microsoft would have released the “Peace Program” even as a beta, and if the “Peace Program” was a computer application, it would fail to even compile, let alone execute.

No corporation would support such a thoroughly useless project, or continue to employ incompetent developers who failed to produce a working application after thirteen years of tweaking and debugging.

The people who designed the “Peace Program” were not professional engineers or scientists who are trained to produce results based on proven methods, but career politicians determined to create a “legacy” for themselves without a thought to the consequences of failure.

This determination to obtain a “legacy” unattached to any measurable accomplishments was further impeded by the tragic murder of the chief developer, Yitzhak Rabin, which caused all his original errors and false expectations to become enshrined as critical core components never to be touched or tampered with.

Even worse, the extreme act of a deranged lone individual has been used to scapegoat and demonize the entire population of religious Zionists, particularly the “settlers” but also those living within the 1949 ceasefire lines, designated as “sacrifices for peace,” who are collectively and exclusively blamed for the failure of the program.

At the same time, the unstable element of “The Palestinians” is always designated as “peaceful,” “moderate,” and “innocent,” no matter how many acts of murder, kidnapping and terror they commit or how many unapologetic genocidal gangsters they elect to their government.

Read it all.
