Are you aware of how many American companies have operations in Israel? Every major semiconductor company has large design centers in the Tel Aviv area, including Intel, Motorola, National Semiconductor etc. Israel is a vital trading and economic partner of the US, and they make their income through hard productive work, unlike some of their neighbors who feed off the UN, oil money, or interest on the US debt.

A few weeks ago, the Palestinians sent a rash of homicide bombers into Israel. When the Israelis responded, the Palestinian authority claimed that Sharon had invaded Palestine with the intention of staying permanently, and that hundreds of civilians were being massacred. Unfortunate that the attention span of the press is too short to recognize such contemptuous disregard for the truth.
