I'm often asked how to best explain the occupation of Palestine to someone completely unfamiliar with the realities of that ongoing slow-motion genocide. Here's how.
First, you'll need a big friend who can take on anybody. For this exercise, his name will be, "America".
Next, find someone on the street who has something you want, like say the spot of pavement where they are standing. Walk up to one of them and stand right up against them and physically touch their body with yours. When they protest, grab them in a headlock. If they start to hit you, start wailing on their head. If they get too aggressive, call America over and have him restrain your victim and tell them everything will be fine if you'll just stop resisting. Tell them you'll let them go if they promise to be your bitch for life. If they refuse, keep them in the headlock.
Be sure to keep America around. If America gets bored and wants to leave, you're in trouble.
