Why Rogel Alper hates us so much?

Rogel (right) is a TV critic in the Palestinian fishwrap Ha Aretz who published today a column so full of hate (self-hate) that cannot be left without answer. He builds gradually his tirade to show us that (1) moon landing is meaningless when three other countries did it before, (2) and anyone could do blindfolded, (3) it is most pretentious and unbecoming for a nothing country like Israel to dream of the moon and try such a grandiose project restricted to world powers like Russia, the USA and lately China.

Alper's sister was not bitten by a rat (as in "A rat done bit my sister Nell, But Whitey's on the moon" ---    thanks B ----  https://youtu.be/goh2x_G0ct4  )  but he protests that the train ride from Nahariya to Tel Aviv is too jumpy and the moon monies should have been spent in repairing the rails. As we said in the barrio: Cada perro con su pulga or Each one shoulders his own cross.

Rogel feels that the Israeli public is too proud and happy with this achievement that puts us on the moon in the company of the world's three most powerful countries, and he just cannot suffer the idea. That is, that Israel is advanced and competent, and that we feel happy. He had to find something to disinflate our pride and belittle it. What have we done to Rogel that he hates us so much?
