Hey, blaming the middle east on Jews is like blaming US racism on WASPs. Or blaming the atrocities of the Union Army on Yankees.It's like blaming the Mafia on Italians. There could be a little bit of a sort of truth to it, but it's another way to miss the point.
Well everyones racist to some extent. Me? I just plain don't like Jews. Not individually mind you just as a cultural entity.

Iran would most likely be less interested in nuclear weapons if Israel didn't have a load of them
Sure, Israel is the most important bad actor in the middle east. But blaming Israel on Jews is like blaming National Socialism on Germans.

Do you have any idea how hard it is to catalogue the number of people who need to be killed? Let alone those who need to be punished.
Note also that the US usually gets 90-120million doses of seasonal flu vaccine in a typical year. The predictions from the CDC in mid 2009 look to have been that they would get >100million dose each of both the standard seasonal flu vaccine and of the H1N1 vaccine, by early Nov 2009, despite the fact that producing the H1N1 vaccine slowed down production of the standard seasonal vaccine (even leaving aside the development and testing of the new vaccine, you're using the same production lines for it that you would for the standard vaccine. You don't just throw together a facility for producing vaccine on an industrial scale, you have to use what you already have or spend a lot of time - that you generally don't have - building new capacity. Which will then end up sitting idle once the pandemic is over).
