Nope...don’t even like Ron Paul. We’ve defended Israel for 60 years now, sent billions of tax payers money to them. When does it stop? When we say so or when they say so?
Since you are a clear secularlist, how about:
1. If you think of Israel as about three unsinkable carrier grups and mulitple brigades of Army and Marines, smack in the middle of the most strategic portion of the world, it’s cheap.
2. Western, civilized, democracies do not abandon other Wester, civilized, democracies to head-chopping savages.
A Palestinian state plus the abandonment of Israel would be a disaster of epic proportions.
How will that decrease our spending in the area?
Ask the Arabs when it stops...
Israel is a modern democracy made up of more than Jews. Christians and Palistinians live there too. The land is extremely important to those of Judeo-Christian faith in the US. Want open revolt aginst the government....let the Arabs overun Jeusalem. I bet even those bed-wetters in Europe would find something to object to in that....
