A parable

The writer of this piece remains unknown. It was posted to a blog on the internet ... 18 June 2009.

The Jews settled the moon in 2053, just about five years after the end of
the Islamic Wars of the 40's, where the Middle East, and Israel, of course,
had been obliterated by nuclear weapons. The two million Jews remaining
throughout the rest of the world - less than 100,000 total in all the
Islamic countries - banded together and purchased the dark side of the moon,
which no other companies or people wished to colonize.

Great transports were arranged via the 62,000 mile space elevator and the
Space Shuttle and every Jew on Earth - including anyone who claimed any
Jewish heritage whatsoever - left to go to a place where no one could blame
them for anything.

The Earth rejoiced - happily rid of all Jews . There were huge parties
throughout all of Sweden and the rest of Europe, Africa, Asia, South America
and North America. (Now known as the Northern Alliance of Islamic States
after the United States was taken over peacefully in the elections of 2040
by a predominantly Muslim Congress and President, who immediately passed
amendments making Islam the main religion of the United States and the world.

After the last Jew entered the elevator (a David Goldstein, 62, formerly of
New York), the Earth was officially declared Judenrein by Hans Ibn Hitler, a
great, great-grandson of Hitler who had been raised in Brazil and hidden by
Nazis until this precious moment.

It was not an easy move for the Jews but, in some ways, it was no different
from all their moves of previous eras. Some former Israelis (still alive
because they were out of Israel when the bombs dropped) claimed that the
moon was easier to deal with because there were no Extremist Muslims. Of
course, this precipitated a huge argument with some Jews, who felt not
having the Radical Muslims nearby was not enough challenge.

Other Jews argued that taming a wilderness with no atmosphere, plant or
animal life and freezing temperatures was enough challenge. And yet other
Jews argued that arguing was counterproductive. It came as no surprise to
anyone that for the two million Jews, there were eventually one million
synagogues (with the other million Jews not joining).

It was also no surprise that within just three years, the Jews had created a
controlled environment that allowed for fantastic plant and animal growth
and production. The transports, which had been called the Arks, had also
carried two of each animal and plant (remember, Noah), and through the
ingenuity of the Jews and cloning, there were now many new species which
sped up production of food (cows with six udders, chickens with four legs
and so forth). The population had rapidly increased and, due to the amazing
collection of scientific and medical minds, most diseases and even aging had
been reduced to nil.

There was even a ministry of communication with Earth, consisting of the
remains of Hollywood producers and moviemakers, who sent back to Earth
portraits of life on the moon. Of course, it had been decided when the Jews
first got to the moon - based on six-thousand- year history of people being
jealous of Jewish accomplishment - that all news coverage of the moon's
population would be 'movie-ized' to show only horrible things. The film
industry, led by Jordan Spielberg, went to great lengths to fabricate news
clips to show Jews barely surviving in the harsh lunar habitat. Artists and
engineers laboured to cover over vast environmental successes with
illusionary domes showing massive areas of wasteland - just in case anyone
from Earth ever sent a spaceship with cameras to see what was going on.

But no-one ever did, and the years passed rapidly; one decade, then another.
bar mitzvahs, weddings, brises, all celebrated under the artificial world
that the Jews had created - not only had it not been that bad, but by the
end of the century, some Jewish authors were calling the moon colony - Eden
2'.

Of course other Jews disagreed. In fact, much time was spent on disagreeing.
There were even contests for arguing but, in general, there was peace.
Anyone who threatened the peace was forced to officiate at a contest with
people arguing about why that person was wrong. The contests would go on for
days (sometimes weeks), until the troublemaker begged for forgiveness. (Many
penalties on the moon were similar to this, and were extremely effective.)

Back on Earth, life disintegrated without the Jews. There was a return to
Middle Ages thought - only the current religion du jour was valid - all
others were kept legislated into poverty until a war erupted and the
positions changed for a few years.

Another amazing anomaly appeared when there were no longer any Jews on Earth
- anti-Semitism actually increased to monumental proportions! Famous orators
explained this simply by saying: 'I don't have to have a gun to be afraid of
having my brains blown out.' Additionally, without the presence of the Jew,
the world developed incredible evil that had no release. (Previous evil had
always focused on the Jews. One Rabbi on the moon actually said G-d spoke to
him, and said that He, G-d, was about to destroy the Earth because everyone
on the Earth was evil. The Rabbi begged Him to reconsider, and bargained
that if there were 1,000 good people left on Earth, G-d should spare the
planet. G-d then told the Rabbi, 'Hey, I went through this before with
Abraham and Noah, and I already know the answer because I'm G-d.'

People laughed at the Rabbi, but then, one day, while all the lunar citizens
were going about their business, an enormous series of explosions was seen
on the Earth. Everyone on the moon stared at the distant fireballs that
seemed to engulf the blue planet that was once their home.

Although there had been great anger at being forced to leave the Earth, the
true spirit of Judaism was always present on the moon, and no one had wished
ill on to their former home. As in the tradition of the Seder (when the wine
is spilled because the Egyptians perished, and we do not rejoice fully when
even an enemy has died) when the Jews saw what was happening, they began to
weep and pray, and watch what was to be the final news broadcast from Earth.
The horror of the apocalypse was videotaped by cameras until all electricity
was ionised by the new electron bombs Entire countries were wiped away in
the blink of an ion exploding. And then came the final transmission from the
nation that had started the entire mess - it was a desperate headline
screamed by a hundred dying newscasters. Their rant continued until it was
just blackness. What were they saying? As the Jews watched, some gasped,
others cried, and a few even laughed. For the last words of the disappearing
civilization was a condemnation. 'The Jews have caused all our problems -
they left us here to face the mess they made. If the Jews hadn't taken all
the best scientists and engineers, we could have defeated our enemies. Our
enemies are the Jews! Kill all the Jews.'

It took a little while, but the electronics experts pieced together what had
happened on Earth during its last days. Anti-Semitism, which had grown
stronger and stronger since the Jews had left, had reached its pinnacle, and
all the countries of the world had decided to launch a massive attack on the
moon. The attack had been coordinated by the United Nations and, although
all the missiles had been launched properly, there was some sort of glitch
in the targeting system, resulting in all the weapons colliding in the upper
atmosphere and showering the Earth with a deadly rain of nuclear fire,
electronic destruction, and a generally bad day. The mistake triggered the
military response of all the nations (who all had nuclear weapons by then -
plus a few other horrid toys), and the result was truly an Armageddon.

The Jews on the moon went into a period of deep mourning. The Orthodox rent
their clothing and there were mass counseling sessions. And then, about one
week after the BIG DAY, as it was now called, a presence was detected
heading towards the moon. Had one of the missiles escaped? Were the Jews
doomed after all? The leaders checked with the defense experts - no this was
not a missile, it was an old-style spacecraft, like the ones used in the
early seventies. As it approached, the laser defense was trained on the
craft. Debates raged as to whether the craft should be destroyed or allowed
to get close enough to communicate with.

A message from the ship came just in time. It said, 'We are the last
representatives from Earth - two from each country and we come in peace.'
Some Jews rejoiced that there were survivors, others demanded isolation or
death of the approaching group.

The Rabbi who had had the vision of earth's destruction told the leaders
that G-d wanted them to have a chance, so they were allowed to circle the
moon. When told they could have a section of land to themselves to farm and
repopulate, the Earthlings were upset. They told the Jews that they should
be allowed to live with the Jews and have all the same privileges - because,
after all, in Judaism, the stranger is given the same rights and privileges
as the citizen.

Upon hearing this, the leaders went to the Rabbi with the visions, and he
offered to guide the visitors to their new home. The leaders allowed him to
give the instructions for landing. Of course, not trusting the Rabbi, the
commander of the ship didn't listen to his advice, and instead crashed into
a lunar crater.

And so we have the final days of the history of the planet Earth, which have
been generously shared with us by the Jewish colony of the 453rd Solar
System of the M Galaxy. Although the Earth is currently uninhabitable, the
head engineer of the Jewish colony on Mars tells us that Venus will be fully
colonized by the year 2120, and with continuous replanting, Earth will once
again be ready for Jews returning from other planets in the year 2136.

An interesting side note - inside the wreckage of the rocket with the
survivors from Earth was a specially marked package that had survived which
included the following words: 'Once there was a great planet named Earth.
And there were many peoples on this planet, and they all existed peacefully
with each other, except for the Jews. Wherever there were Jews, there was
trouble. Jews brought dirt and death and hatred and strife. They were
finally banished from our planet, only to take with them many great
inventors and scientists and doctors, leaving Earth with nothing. We have
decided to destroy the remnants of the Jews, and since the first attempt
failed, we are the last chance for Earth. Whoever shall find this will know
the truth - It was all the Jews' fault.'

This panel has been saved and is on display at the Earth Memorial Museum at
Rivka Crater, NW, for all travelers who wish to see the remains of a
civilization that did not understand the words - 'He who blesses the Jews,
is himself blessed. He who curses the Jews, is himself cursed.'
