You've broken the metaphor again. Israel isn't restocking the buffet because the buffet is a metaphor for land that is a non-consumable resource. The buffet being restocked symbolises the non-consumable nature of the actual thing the buffet represents.If we're using a buffet as a metaphor, then the buffet is constantly restocked, is always the same after each restocking, and is restocked by some unseen entity that doesn't represent any real-world country, group, faction, idea, or demographic. Claiming that Israel restocks the buffet is basically claiming that living on land causes it to disappear, and Israel is graciously manufacturing new land to replace it as it does. |
