Gustave > I'm afraid that would be enough for Dubya to meet the same fate as JFK.... So they can go around bumping off any and every president they don't like -- and get away with it forever? I have my doubts. Apropos the "marriage of convenience" between Zionist fascists and Christian fundamentalists, it's quite clear that the relationship is maintained on very tenuous grounds, and by the beliefs of people who are seriously deluded. In fact, there are essential doctrinal differences: >>The evangelist Chuck Missler once told me that Israel gets more support in America from Christian fundamentalists than from "ethnic Jews" - yet he has asserted that Auschwitz was "just a prelude" to what will happen to Jews in the approaching Last Days. Jews who advocate working more closely with the Christian right say this is irrelevant. "These religious beliefs ... speak to an unknown future," while evangelicals are providing support right now, Abraham Foxman, director of the Anti-Defamation League, wrote recently. This answer misreads millennial belief. To long for the End is to assert that our world is deeply flawed. Someone whose millennial vision is "Gonna lay down my sword and shield" says one thing about what is wrong today. Those who look forward to the Jews converting or dying proclaim another, very different "flaw" in our world.<< It's my view that this relationship, like most other relationships, depends on a simple assessment of cost and benefit, not only to those in the relationship, but for those around who tolerate it. I believe when it becomes clear that the costs far exceed any tangible benefit (which they do already but the masses still can't see it), it will no longer be feasible to continue with it. In fact, the present policy doesn't even benefit Israel, the one for which the policy exists. It's completely futile and the US is paying an enormous price for it and getting nothing for it except trouble and more trouble. Surely, sometime, reason has to prevail?
