Didn't look like it from reading, by I'm not judging you anyways.
To answer your question I think Obama was right for once.
You can't push people to follow international laws and then veto every time Israel are at the charge.
It's not just hypocrisy it's sick what they're doing.
Next the US tax payers should demand no more funding a merciless, right wing military.

Talk talk talk, they been dong that forever. Who remembers how ritual it used to be every year to have Peace Summits at Camp David and hand shaking ceremonies of Palestinian (Arafat) the Israeli rep and current US Presider on the White House lawn?
The endless peace 'process'.
You all been duped one, more, time...

Why do we get involved with the countries in the Middle East anyway. Obama was wrong to do what he did, he interfered with another countries government which is supposed to be our ally. Israel's government isn't very reasonable either. but two wrongs do not make a right.

Unfortunately, Israel needs a boogeyman to keep receiving military aid/funding. That title goes to the Palestinians.

I say that you're giving "God's chosen" on "God given land" a lot of leeway in that "rationalist" label you've applied to them.

To Which 'God's chosen' are you referring to ?
The Jews.
The Muslims.
Because Palesntine sure the hell didn't exist during the Ottoman Empire.
And in cased people missed that period in the middle east.
That was muslim invaders and occupiers.

Palestinian Coins and Passports in circulation at the time disagree with your Hasbara.
That's just 2 of a myriad of ways I could counter you lame pro-Israeli argument.

He interfered by abstaining from voting? He really should have voted for it. Israel needs to stop building where they do not live.
How would you like it if your neighbor built a factory in your yard and when questioned he says, "Relax, it's just a settlement."

So "Americans" should leave and native Americans should have their land back? They are the original owners by your logic.

I believe in Israel and the point that Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East where people can be free. The problem is that Palestinians are Empirical and have ties to the land which are religious for them. The Israelis who are Rational, don't see it this way and use very Western modes of thought when approaching this issue.
Are we talking about the west or the Middle East? If Israelis love so much to be western, then why they don't just pack their bag and go to the west?
Israel was established as a forward base for the west on the eastern mediterranean, close to the oil. the whole religious holyland thing is a ruse.
..i understand you say that as 'logical option'
but the truth is ten times more Devious.
What truth is that?
