Watch where the money goes. Understand the war.

Whatever, Take comments out of context, and make them mean whatever you like. What I said remains true. Call me anti semitic, like the person who's article we are responding to... use any means you can, twist the truth any way you may. Until the Israelis start treating their neighbors as they would be treated, let them accept the consequences. You don't have to get into the new testament to rule out what they are doing. Disgusting crimes against humanity. What is the difference between Palestinians and any peoples who don't want their homeland invaded? If the USA were occupied by any force more superior we would become he most devious terrorists on the planet. In a heartbeat. The Palestinians are our true allies. We will realise it.... too late.

wow, what an intellectual discussion. Until the Israelis stop taking things that don't belong to them, there will be no peace. What nonsense. lets all try to draw away attention from the crimes of Israel against humanity. Of course, unless you think the Palestinians are not people. (Not to mention others in the region) There would be a chance, if Israel withdrew into its original borders, and started to try to make peace with their neighbors..... HA HA HA. Get real. Our government wants war, Israel is their ally in this cause. There will be war.

It would be a lot more interesting if the percentage of comments by the author were less. Shows a high degree of insecurity, don't you think?

Such delightful innocence. the Neocons WANT war, the Israelis WANT terrorists. Both create the conditions that lead to both, giving them the excuse to further their agenda. The terrorists ARE deciding the next election, in fact, its already done. If you live in this country and believe there are elections, then go back to listening to NPR and be happy, and content. If you don't know when you live in a fascist state, then you don't know the definition. We are the terrorists. The election has already been held. Accept it. Start thinking about survival.

I disagree. Clinton is the next NEOCON choice. if you want to see GW's policies go forth, vote for her. If you want change, listen to Ron Paul.

of course, the Israelis have no legit claim on any land in the mideast. However, at this point, were they to treat their neighbors as they would wish to be treated, it might eventually lead to acceptance of their claim to the land they stole. It looks like their present goal is to steal as much more land as possible, so that when the scat hits the windmill they will be able to claim a larger portion that they were originally given (without the consent of the inhabitants).

There is no place in their present policies for success, however, it is doomed for failure.

It seems I start to hear the glimmerings of dissatisfaction in the USA political scene for the crimes Israel is committing. Israel might be wise to consider US support temporary, and begin to make friends with their neighbors. I doubt that will happen, They will continue to cry "holocaust!" at the merest hint their policies against Palestine are unjust, just like GWB brings up 911 every time he wants to take away our civil rights, and torture more people.

I wonder if Americans will ever come to view our support of Israel as one of the sources of terrorist attacks? If it does, hmmm....

Freeze Settlements? How about move back within your borders? I have a checkpoint.... no one can pass that believes they have a right to take things that don't belong to them. Lets put up that checkpoint.

Sorry, I must bow down before such brilliance and shade my eyes. I have gone through enough of this blogs history to know I am not welcome, I just can't seem to get the knack of having a view, then finding evidence to support it. I prefer observation, and developing theories based on what I have observed. This blog is full of very clever people, too clever by far for me. Good luck to you all,
Dan

God I admire you. Again hidden in the intellectual froth -the fact that Israel is creating the attacks. Just like we are.

Understand that WE (meaning our government) WANT and willfully create terrorist attacks, just like Israel. If you don't comprehend that, then you don't and never will understand our foreign policy.

Just do this. Find out for yourself who is profiting from the war in Iraq. Then you will know why we did it. It IS that simple. Why would we attack Iran? For the same reason. Read some of Eisenhower's speeches, just for one. War is the goal, therefore you must realize the true SUCCESS of our actions in Iraq. It guarantees more war, which IS THE GOAL. The problem is, we will eventually pay for it. Similar, but not the same, is Israel. They will pay for it too. If the USA withdrew its support for Israel today, they would be annihilated. For that reason alone, Israel should start changing their behavior.

But they won't, we won't- (Hilary is the next NEOCON selection) and things will get worse.

If you want to bring up the UN why don't you look at the resolutions (ignored) condemning Israel?

We, like the Israelis, will go down simply because we have let go of our responsibility as citizens of a democracy, the responsibility to stay informed.

Those who don't even bother to look up the past will repeat it, too.
