Re: You lump all Americans in with your simplistic ideas on Israel and the US. I'd rather say I lump Bush and Kerry together in THEIR simplistic ideas on the Mideast... Then again, you're right about the fact that millions of Americans disapprove of their country's reckless support to Israel but, the sad thing is, they are irrelevant... Somehow, pro-Palestinian/Arab leanings is to the US what the far-left is to Europe --a fringe opinion. Clue: Message 19222114

"Am I scaring you?" Boykin asked. "There is great ignorance of Christianity in America today. Without Christian content, there will be barbarity in our own country...

In order to consolidate or renew the American people's commitment to this country, [the US] must become a Christian state," he said. Boykin, known for his hard-line views, said in an interview with The Jerusalem Post that the Pentagon had to take "drastic action" against the UN's rule. "You have to present the UN with a choice between existing as an authority and disappearing. I think the UN has a great interest in continuing to exist," he said. [...] Adapted from: Message 16679351
