Of course the Israelis would say what they say in that link. Why admit you expelled anyone...

So the Israeli site is to biased to use a s source but
palestinemonitor.org is just fine?

How can it ever lose another war armed to the teeth thanks to our largesse?

It could be blanked by Arab or Iranian nukes or the largesse might not last forever (You are arguing we should end it now, or at least soon, are you not?) Or the Arabs could get their act together militarily and actually fight skillfully and with good large scale coordination. The last seems unlikely given their modern military record but it is possible.

Our continued intervention and support of Israel is slowing the process which would permit peace to develop in the region.

Israel isn't the main enemy of peace in the area. When its neighbors have been truly willing to have peace they have had peace. Israel has been willing to give up land for peace even though it doesn't have a lot of land. The Arabs have mostly wanted to wipe out Israel from day 1.

"Just counting the reconstruction we will spend more in Iraq."

This is a joke that should not figure into this discussion.


No joke.

And yet you would oppose spending billions to feed America's poor.

If we spent nothing on social programs and you where arguing for spending $3bil I don't think you would face much opposition from me or from most conservatives.

Again, I can only assume you argue the above from partisanship and not from ideology.

Again you demonstrate your lack of understanding of my motivations.

I don't even see how partisanship could be an issue here. It doesn't matter if the president is a Democrat or a Republican, Israel continues to get support from the US. Its not a Democrat vs. Republican issue or even a liberal vs. conservative issue.
