Perspective

The Gaza Strip is about 140 square miles in area. To get a bit of perspective on how such a small sized "community" (and I use that phrase loosely) has grabbed the attention of the world's leaders - consider the following:

- Winnebago County is in Wisconsin. The total area in the county is 579 square miles which is FOUR times the size of the Gaza Strip. The surface area of the lakes and ponds in Winnebago County is literally greater than the total area of the Gaza Strip.

- Winnebago County is home to the City of Oshkosh which is about 1/3 the size of the Gaza Strip. So imagine if Oshkosh and the surrounding towns decided to kick out anyone who wasn't Christian and not just Christian but a certain denomination of Christian. Now imagine that Oshkosh decided to instead of spending money on infrastructure or feeding the needy that the corrupt leaders of Oshkosh decided instead to spend that money on rockets to lob into Northern Illinois.

How much sympathy would you have when the Illinois National Guard or the US Army came in and leveled Oshkosh? I have no sympathy. My concern in this
"fight" is with the men and women of the IDF.
