There are many forms of colonialism...america has used ideologicle colonialism to great effect.... "plant the seeds of democracy and free markets" has been our battle cry for 90 years.....we are still using it today in the middle east. could israel be likened to a crusader state? there are certain similarities.... three being..... the seige mentality, dependance on outside support , and the need of a continual influx of new people of the same ideology to maintain its defence against the native inhabitants. one can only hope she has better success. ps.this is only food for thought
