You seem to have already forgotten that the U.S. is just like Iraq. Both have unelected heads of state. Both have and use weapons of mass destruction, both cruelly abuse minorities, both are out of compliance with multiple UN sanctions.

Israeli's state terrorism continues to murder infants and civilians: From Amnesty International: *"Dina Matar, two-months-old and Ayman Matar, 18-months-old, were among nine children killed on 22 July 2002 when the IDF dropped a one ton bomb from an F-16 fighter jet on a densely populated area of Gaza city. The bomb killed 17 people. The aim of the attack was to assassinate a leading Hamas activist, who was among those killed. The following day Israel's Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon called the attack "one of the most successful operations". A number of Palestinian children have also died after being held up at IDF checkpoints, and delayed or even prevented from passing through to reach hospital. At least three children have been killed by Israeli settlers. In most cases the IDF does not intervene to protect Palestinians from Israeli settlers, who literally get away with murder."* The American are forced to pay for these crimes against humnaity. This is, of cousre, in addition to the illegal settlements and corporate punishment of civlians and relatives by destroying homes and orchards. The Red Cross has declared both as war crimes under the 4th Geneva Convention. I will say though, the Amnesty International report also details Palestinian atrocities against Israelis, which are no better (or worse) than what the Israeli government is doing. I didn't include those because the pro-Israeli American media does that already (ad nauseum). The problem is that Israel's atrocities are much greater in number than the Palestinian atrocities and routinely covered up in the Jewish controlled US media.
