Up to now I thought that you were fair and balanced.
Youn seem to think ANYTHING that is not 100% pro-Israel is not fair and balanced.

Jews are prosecuted and punished if guilty.
Sometimes.

1956? Eisenhower and the US gov't considered that an attack by Israel, France, and the UK on the Arabs. And demanded they withdraw. Which they did.

Egypt initiated hostilities against Israel starting in 1949 with closing the Suez canal to Israel. Imagine what would happen to Panama, if Panama closed off the Panama canal to America.
The US, when it had the Panama Canal, always claimed the right to close it to enemies. Technically, Egypt and Israel were at war in 1956. Difference?

The current treaty regarding the canal that the US has with Panama denies panama the right to close the canal to US shipping. It also allows the US to take control of the canal in time of war.

Did Israel have those rights wrt the Suez Canal?
