Now who’s baiting? It’s the President who decides what US interests are. You may trust him. I don’t. But in either case it’s not up to us

I didn't say it was up to us.... or that I trust his policy one way or the other. I said the US has a right look out for her interests, and Israel a right to look after hers.

I also said it should not just be assumed we would allow Israel to use US controlled airspace, when it may put US troops in harm's way, or conflict with our security interests. This is my entire point

hope you registered for the draft

i' too old to serve

That was a rhetorical and sarcastic remark designed to put you personally (hypothetically) in the position of being engaged by foreign powers based on who they were and without any US recourse or discussion.....

That was a cheap shot and I apologize.

Agreed.

Agreed.

I didn’t take it that way so no need to apologize. But I apologize for overreacting to your post on the Liberty. I’ve had bad experiences with some posters on that subject and am over-sensitive. I’m sorry.
