re: And if Israel is attacked, watch how fast that opinion changes.)))

Do you really think so? My own take is that interest and support for Israel has declined enormously. Democrats used to support Israel--all that's left is Leiberman. US Jews don't really support Israel--76% voted against Bush, and Kerry is not pro-Israel.

All Israel really has in the US are pro-Israel evangelicals--you know, those nutty fundamentalists that the neocons are afraid of. The World Council of Churches is pro-Pali with nary a whisper of indignation from most of this country's intellectuals.

Most of those who really care about Israel are posting on this forum. The rest of the world just wants Israel to go away and stop embarrassing them.

I agree. A little dose of clarity for the Freeper kick arse contingent is a good thing! Thanks!

Those who are considered and consider themselves Neocons are not afraid of Christian Fundamentalists. Actually, they're pretty good friends.
