Unreal, Americans for Palestine over Americans for Israel? I don't Think so!!!
I think Conservatives need to be invited to... FREEP!
Currently 52.7% For PALESTINE!
Maybe we need to declare ourselves Israelis’ to show support.
And sing HaTikvah facing Israel.
Need the words for that one.
Kol od balleivav penimah
Nefesh Yehudi homiyah
Ulfatei mizrah kadimah
‘Ayin le Tzion tzofiyah
Od lo avdah tikvateinu
Ha tikvah bat shnot alpayim
Lihyot am chofshi be artzeinu
Eretz Tzion Yerushalayim
Look at the stats... the poll is being hit hard by votes from Arab countries and europe.
Full HaTikvah anthem, English translation (national anthem of the State of Israel)

As long as in the heart, within,
A Jewish soul still yearns,
And onward, towards the ends of the east,
An eye still gazes toward Zion;
Our hope is not yet lost,
The ancient hope,
To return to the land of our fathers,
The city where David encamped.
As long as tears from our eyes
Flow like benevolent rain,
And throngs of our countrymen
Still pay homage at the graves of (our) fathers;
As long as our precious Wall
Appears before our eyes,
And over the destruction of our Temple
An eye still wells up with tears;
As long as the waters of the Jordan
In fullness swell its banks,
And (down) to the Sea of Galilee
With tumultuous noise fall;
As long as on the barren highways
The humbled city gates mark,
And among the ruins of Jerusalem
A daughter of Zion still cries;
As long as pure tears
Flow from the eye of a daughter of my nation,
And to mourn for Zion at the watch of night
She still rises in the middle of the nights;
As long as drops of blood in our veins
Flow back and forth,
And upon the graves of our fathers
Dewdrops still fall;
As long as the feeling of love of nation
Throbs in the heart of the Jew,
We can still hope even today
That a wrathful God may still have mercy on us;
Hear, O my brothers in the lands of exile,
The voice of one of our visionaries,
(Who declares) That only with the very last Jew —
Only there is the end of our hope!
If it were left up to me, I would ship out every Arab to and Arab county, namely Jordan. And I do know that there are some good Palestinians in Israel. Anyone left would have to pledge their allegiance to Israel. I am an American. No other way can there be peace. No, not ever!
Fact: Approximately two thirds of Jordanians are of Palestinian descent, the remaining one third is of Hashemite descent, including the Jordanian royal family.
Do you happen to know the song that the Israeli soldiers sang while enroute in the movie The Raid on Entebbe? Stars Charles Bronson, James Woods, Stephen Macht.
One of my favorites.
Arabs and Europeans really want to tell Americans how to think. Don't know why, but it always has been that way.
Poll FReep!
