Nozine you are out doing yourself. Yet I hear so little from you about the billions of aid the US sends to Egypt, Jordan or the Palestinians, the strength of the Saudi lobby, or the success of the Saudis in buying friends and influence. All huge. Not to mention the billions we send to Saudi Arabia to finance Al Qaeda with. ROFLMAO It's just Israel, all the time. Is this supposed to be in American interests? What interests? The US is paying dearly for the support of Israel. I would be for cutting off American aid to Israel, if it went away to the Pals at the same time. Israel has a working economy; but everybody seems to think it's a law of nature that the Pals should be maintained on external welfare. They get billions, literally, higher per capita than Israel. Thus they can afford perpetual jihad. Again with your self pity.

If you haven't heard it, it's because you weren't listening. And your deafness is not my problem. It is not just Israel all the time. I've made numerous complaints over the years about what we give to numerous ME countries, and the deals we have cut with them. Look elsewhere for your unfair antisemites Nadine, you are riding the wrong horse here- but it is evidence for me that it all comes down to trying to bash anyone who complains about Israel- you don't really care who else they complain about- you will just assume they only mention Israel. You simply chose to say this to the wrong person- which kind of proves my point. So, I thank you. You have proved my point far better than I could have done alone.

Nadine, rather than blathering, I would expect you to genuflect and say "thank you" Uncle Sam for providing the "peace" money to Egypt and Jordan. The ONLY reason American taxpayers are going to the cleaners w/Egypt and Jordan is because it maintains SECURITY AND STABILITY FOR ISRAEL. Who are you kidding?????? Since the US took out Iraq for Israel, the Israelis only have to contend with the Pals who have no army, no guns, and really no butter (food) - only rocks and suicide bombers. Look at Israel's confrontation with Hezzbolah last summer, it wasn't a cake walk. If Israel had to contend with Egypt and Jordan in this century, it would be no 1973, it would require Israel blood letting unknown since its creation. Don't be stupid enough to wish for America to cut loose Egypt and Jordan because America would certainly be better off but not Israel.
