Israel doesn’t have a dog in this hunt.

Heck I’m kind of neutral. I don’t like Russian aggression, but I’m not so sure we didn’t start this because of the way Ukraine was leaning. And I’m not sure I trust anyone that Obama backs.

Israel will sell lots of natural gas and crude oil to Europe. No use teasing the bear.

Maybe we should have a poll to find out. What type of conservative are you, by the way, Lyndon Larouche?

There are five U.N. permanent member nations of the Security Council with veto power: China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Israel is not even a non-permanent member.

Israel is like a surviving sniper. It does not draw itself out its position at the minutest crying out there.

Instead of criticizing ISrael, we should do well to export its model of Independence to Ukraine and even China, making solid a lock against a Russia that Israel turned against.

We are run by complete idiot... reminds me of the Compassionate GOPe idiots running to help Obama not cry.

Specifically, I’m the kind of conservative that doesn’t support US covert engineered revolutions where there is no US declaration of war. I used to, but I don’t any more, after actually thinking about it.

If a situation is enough of a threat to US national security that we should send US troops or covert operators to put their lives on the line, it’s enough of a threat to get a declaration of war from Congress.

If revolutions are exported with no formal declaration of war, they are certainly engineered to benefit financial elites and, in truth, have nothing at all to do with US national security.

If national security WAS at stake, a declaration of war would be forthcoming.

"Why should Israel get involved in the Russian-Ukrainian war when the USA refuses to?"

Besides, right now Israel may have more to gain by casting its lot with Russia. It hurts to have to say that, but......there it is.

Israel should back Obama’s every move, while he cuts them off at the knees. Yeah, that makes sense! /s

“LMAO! Israel is not sold on the NWO. Who would have thought.”

LOL ! Yeah, NWO/Monsanto Nazis/Rothschilds, pass the tin foil hat !!!!11

They keep the low profile on this one because otherwise your beloved shirtless soviet would send (additional) tonnes of weapons to Hezbollah, Assad, Iran etc.

To make a long story short. The White house spends the better part of 5 years undermining Israel at every step, then get’s mad because Israel won’t back em up.

“Besides, right now Israel may have more to gain by casting its lot with Russia. It hurts to have to say that, but......there it is.”

Russia is directly or indirectly responsible for the overwhelming majority of **** the Jewish people have had to deal with over the past century. From pogroms in eastern Europe, to the publication of dissemination of the Protocols of the elders of Zion throughout the middle east, to signing the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact which not only triggered WWII but allowed the Nazis to take Poland with no opposition which ultimately led to deaths of 3 million Polish Jews, to subsidizing the various Arab dictatorships after 1948 in their ceaseless conflict with Israel.

We might be squishy, but we’re not one of their worst historical enemies either.

Yeah, well, German and England were two of our biggest enemies in prior centurys and then they became allies. Things change.

Obama is so obsessed with hostility toward the tiny beleaguered Jewish state of Israel thousands of miles away that no matter what evil may happen throughout the entire world, his poisoned brain is continually able to create even the most farfetched, twisted pretexts for blaming Israel for it.

Obama suffers from the same obsessive-compulsive psychosis that compels Harry Reid to blame the Koch Brothers for everything bad under the sun.

The reputations of Harry Reid and Barack Obama have fallen to such depths that no reasonable individual takes anything they say seriously anymore.

Israel will survive and prosper because its scientists have created state-of-the-art missile-defense systems that other nations want to buy — for example, India, which has just contracted with Israel for such a system. And the enormous off-shore natural-gas deposits Israel has recently discovered will build lasting ties with Egypt and Turkey among other nations.

It’s time for Israel to finally cut its umbilical chord to the increasingly anti-Semitic, pro-Iranian U.S. and set out on its own to build its own future.

Or maybe this: http://news.yahoo.com/ukraine-divided-over-wwii-legacy-100702056.html

Israel is doing just fine without being a foreign power’s sockpuppet.

I think they have no interest in being a speed bump for superior nations, unlike some other historically comedic states.
