As we see these spoiled, entitled brat adults on college campuses playing Jihad for Justice, it occurred to me to do a quick search on the Internet to see if I was missing something. What was the thing I wanted to see if I was missing? What the major contribution to our species is from Palestinians.
It sounds odd because it is odd. It’s never occurred to me before to search for inventions from any group of people, mostly because I didn’t care. People are people, if someone of a different race or ethnicity came up with something, I didn’t spend any time thinking about it as a contribution to humanity by anything other than fellow humans.
It’s something that the Democratic Party and the world-wide progressive movement has made controversial – a color blind society.
But it was more than that, I not only didn’t look for skin color on things, I didn’t care. Still don’t.
So, I wondered what contributions to human existence came out of Gaza and the West Bank. Sure, it had to be some great, important things to make a people so worthy of uprooting everything in life over.
So, like I said, I looked up Palestinian inventions. Billions of dollars have poured into the hands of their leadership, it couldn’t have all been stolen, right?
Not so much.
Granted, I didn’t conduct an exhaustive search, just a quick one. But the left-wing Wikipedia tells me there isn’t a whole bunch. I hope you were sitting down for that, shocking as it must be.
Fully 10 of the 17 things listed under “Palestinian Inventions” are weapons, mostly various forms of rockets. The rest? No cures or treatments for diseases, no technological advancements, just a cheese, a soap (which the protesting mutants could use), a chicken dish, embroidery, a spice and the Arafat Head Doily. That’s it.
