UB, this will, I hope, be the last message we have on this topic.

You state <<My first point is that they could be stopped were the United States to agree to stop supporting Israel.>>

I ask you: on whose authority do you have that promise? Or is this, rather, your opinion?

My beef with you is not about politics: everyone has points of view and should freely express them (though this thread really isn't the place, but hey. . . it's the weekend). My issue is with your form of presentation, stating things as facts without a shred of documented evidence to support your argument. I'm talking FIRM evidence. Since you have one single point that you state as FACT, such evidence shouldn't be hard to find (otherwise, how can you call it a fact?). Instead, you use logic and suggestion and opinion: all valid, but certainly not the same as an inarguable fact. THAT why I find your statement so incredibly insulting: it reeks of hubris and a closed mind, and it diminishes all others who would care to debate you.

Again, I hope I am making my point clear.

Some good points being raised, but I really think this needs to be taken elsewhere.

If it doesn't get moved, then I will just boot the participants. That would suck. I like the participants and value their contributions.
