But you wouldn't do that, would you???
While our leaders have been on a downward spiral when it comes to "virtue" since the 60's, Obama is by far the worst of the lot. He's a liar the likes of which this country has never seen (with the possible exception of George Bush and Dick Cheney.) He is PURPOSELY trying to destroy this country so that he can rebuild it into some kind of Communist/Fascist dictatorship in the image of his hero Chairman Mao.
So yes, I consider him to be drastically lacking in virtue when compared to his predecessors.

You are Australian with no connection to the Palestinians, no roots in the Middle East.
You are anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian....................

Pfffft. You Obamanots are amazing. Tell you what. When Obama has his own lunchbox, pinball machine, and custom painted coffin, then you let me know and I will start taking him seriously.
While a self-described social liberal,[13] Simmons was a supporter of the foreign policy of the George W. Bush administration.[14] He supported the 2003 invasion of Iraq...

Thank You sir. I was snowed at one time thinking Jews were evil all because of the Evil Khazar Zionist who run Israel and control some of US policies.

Actually, it's NOT a myth, nor was it created by Christians. You can read it for yourself in the Bible/Torah.
Genesis 12:2-3
2. And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
3. And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
Genesis 17:7-8
7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.
8. And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.
Own it brother, and be proud of it.
I recently heard another explanation of why the Jews are God's Chosen People, and it has nothing to do with them being better than everyone else. It was explained to me that God chose Israel as a tool through which to work his will. Being "chosen" obviously has its drawbacks, because as the "chosen people," of Almighty God, He drew a BIG target on their backs for the ungodly to take aim; but in the end, Israel has always triumphed because God is indeed in their corner. The simple fact that they still exist after being conquered and taken away as slaves on THREE occasions - only to be restored to the land each time - points to this simple truth.

No, I'm asking you and those like you what is your emotional payback re Middle East affairs because for an Australian like yourself, the Palestinians and Israelis don't affect our lives here in little Australia.
I have payback because I have family there and a large connection to Israel. You have no connection to either the Israelis or Palestinains.
So again......
Whats your emotional payback? Do you understand the question?
