We support Israel because it is the right thing to do...sure the bomb makers and other special interest groups have financial motives, but the average guy in the street can tell a democracy from a nest of psuedo-religious fanatics! You cannot reason with terrorists...why can't you understand that?? If Israel should fall, that solves nothing and emboldens them further. You negotiate with sane folks who want peace, you kill terrorists!

From reading this thread I can tell you care more about Israel than you do America and its citizens.

I don't hate Israel. I just don't care about them. I have cities in my own country that are in need of money, but instead my dollar is going to build a military for a country that can afford its own military. If your first allegiance is to another country, maybe you should move.

You however are clueless. We support them because "it is the right thing to do" is ridiculous. The right thing to do is take care of my own country, not some other.

Israel should do whatever it wants, just do it with their own money. I am a realist, we get nothing from Israel. Nothing. The Arab countries atleast have oil, so I see why we have to make a deal with that devil, but there is no reason to make a deal with a devil that has nothing to give you in return.
