True Left

About 100 Palestinians marched to Joseph’s tomb in the city of Nablus late Saturday and set it on fire before being dispersed, Israeli military spokesman Brig. Gene. Ran Kochav told Israeli army radio. Photos showed parts of the grave smashed and charred, as well as damage to a chandelier hanging above it, a water tank and an electrical box, the Jerusalem Post reported. And for the second day in a row, Palestinians reportedly broke into Joseph’s Tomb again and vandalized the shrine.

"Before the first clash with the Egyptians, the head scoundrel, the modest Joseph, had pretty
well prepared: the seven lean cows, all the granaries filled, the people raging with hunger, the
reigning Pharaoh a perfect flunky of the Jews, and Joseph, with a corner on the grain supply,
'ruler over all the land'! (Genesis 41:43). All the lamentations of the Egyptians were in vain;
the Jew held the warehouse closed with an iron fist until they, in return for a bit of bread, were
obliged to give away first their money, then their cattle and their land, and finally their
freedom. And suddenly the capital was swarming with Jews; old Jacob was there, and 'his
sons, and his sons' sons with him, his daughters, and his sons' daughters, and all his seed' --
the entire hodgepodge (Genesis 46:7). And Joseph 'wept a good while' for joy. Afterward, he
said to his brothers: 'ye shall eat the fat of the land,' and 'the good of all the land of Egypt is
yours.' (Genesis 45:18,20)
