Pay-Per-View War?

Sure, why not?

Israeli Defense Forces launch their own YouTube Channel. Now you can vote for your favorite Israeli military actions almost as soon as they happen!
 
I've long said that I don't think peace in the Middle East is possible so long as religions continue to exist. I think this YouTube step is a move in the direction of making the never-ending conflicts profitable. Pretty soon they can start selling pay-per-view subscriptions to just watch the different faiths blow each other to bits.
 
Maybe they can even start a show based on American Idol or Dancing with the Stars where viewers can judge both heroes and cannon fodder for their "art" as they carry out their fate on global video.
 
Oh, wait, never mind. For a minute there I forgot that we just elected Barack Obama. Everything will be just fine.
