Oh really?
Well, seems you're forgetting the crap done TO THEM.
Typical.
Why?
USA was not involved in the Holocaust.
The UK was not involved.
We bare no guilt.
In fact we helped liberate them from the NAZI's
So why pander to Israel because of the past wrongs done by OTHER people.
Wow. Just....wow.
So, you need guilt to help someone? You have to be guilty of some atrocity to then be able to help? Well, tell that to the Germans then. I'm sure they would love to know that people expect them to do more to help a people that their ancestors tried to exterminate.
We help them, because it's the right thing to do, to defend and protect a people that have been treated as subhumans for a very long time. And now, with our assistance they FINALLY have the means to defend themselves.
As for the previous poster who mentioned Israel hasn't been invaded since 1973. You sir are correct! Why have they not been invaded? Because they have a deterrent. Their neighbors are now afraid of them. For the first time in history Israel is a force to be reckoned with. And rightfully so.

If they really wanted peace, then they would make it happen.
A bit hard to when you are surrounded by people who have vowed to destroy you...
You make the bed...you sleep in it.
As the people who voted the Hamas terrorists into government have found out, to their cost!

Well if you love them so much go live there and join there military. No one is stopping you.
The jews are not the only downtrodden people in the world.
The native Americans are one such group, the Irish another.

Does anyone have trouble not asking the obvious question, why does isreal/do the jews have so many G.D. enemies? Why have they always had so many enemies? Are they truly just harmless victims? Is Isreal really playing nice and being unfairly hated by about everyone around them? Where there's smoke there's fire. I have a hard time buying it, go ahead and call me all the names in the book. I don't give a rat's ass if you bully me.
Understanding that would require you to have an understanding of the Abrahamic religions. And their animosity towards each other… Obviously you are not familiar…
It's obvious that you don't give a "rats ass" or you brush up on some of your history so that you could grasp the concept of what's actually happening
Wow, that's a very poor answer. You're not earning your keep … ;-)

Well, since I am 1/2 Cherokee, I'm sure I understand our history, and mourn our dead quite a bit more than you. However, it was the past, and it cannot be changed. Now, if we Natives were today being bombed, killed and having missiles fired at us all the time simply for being on our reservations, and having a different religion, I would take up the fight.
Ironically, the other half of me is Dutch/Irish/German lineage.
What I am not however, is Jewish. So, I have no right to join their military or their fight. But I do have insights into their plight. So, I support them as I can. Again, because it is the right thing to do.
Your cheeky response though, is indicative of you not having a valid point.
I know it's the "in" thing now to hate on Israel, but you are on the wrong side of history on this.

I dont "hate" the people of Israel.
IF they were attacked again by there neighbors I would have no issue in help.
But if they want to start a war they can do it themselves. Not unless they can back it up with REAL hard evidence and not just the word of politicians and if they will be in the fox holes alongside us and not just sit and watch were there allies do the heavy work.

The King David Hotel bombing was a terrorist attack carried out on Monday July 22, 1946 by the militant Zionist underground organization, the Irgun, on the British military and administrative headquarters for Palestine, which was housed in the southern wing[1] of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem.[2][3][4] 91 people of various nationalities were killed and 46 were injured.[5]

If you don't know, and don't get it, then sadly there would be no use in explaining it to you. It would be a waste of your time and mine.
Thank you for being a *ick.

I see you are a master at taking things out of context, and also putting words in my mouth that were never spoken...
Tell me , youre saying the root of the problem in the middle east ISNT the warring religions in the area?
Then what is it?
Why do you feel this is not the root of the problems in the area? Being that it has been the driving force of conflicts int he middle east for thousands of years
Is it because for you it doesnt lay enough blame on Israel?
To me it explains it perfectly.......

Lets all be perfectly honest here, Israel will not survive as a Jewish state into the next century so long as it continues with is policy of dropping bombs on children playing soccer at the beach, utilizing their assets within Hamas which the Mossad originally helped create. Clearly the hawks in charge of that country have no interest in changing their policies of intentionally targeting and murdering children playing soccer on the beach, as well as bombing UN schools and Hospitals killing the refugees inside.
It is for this reason we must relocate the country to the Southwest border of the US, where they can be a wonderful barrier to the illegal hordes of central and south american immigrants and the drug cartels. If the Israelis know how to do something right, it is building effective walls and securing their borders.
