>Z, first, you have stopped starting your posts with my name. I hope that doesn't signal that you are angry with what I have to say. My intent is not to instigate or incite.......I just think that this crisis in the world is going to require some unique thinking on the part of everyone. Sorry- nope, I'm not upset, I just don't agree with you- that's life :) I don't always start posts with the names of the people I'm writing to- don't take it personally. >As for why Israel deserves the West's generous financial support, I think those are all good reasons. However, there a number of countries that would fit that bill but get little if any aid from the West. The US alone provides aid to Israel as if its were a long lost cousin. I wonder if our interests and Israel's as well wouldn't be better served better if a portion of the economic aid were splintered off and given to some other countries in the region. I'm sure there are other countries, though I personally can't name them- however, I don't think that most of the Arab countries should be among them. >Come on, not all Arabs/Muslims are bad guys. Do you think that the law abiding Arabs or Muslims in this country are genetic freaks? Besides, its not that rare for the US to have relations with bad guys when it serves our interests.;~)) Of course not all of them are... it's just that too many of them are. -Z
