What is with the knee-jerk pro-Israel sentiment, anyhow? Isn’t that just another kind of prejudice?

If you think it is "prejudiced" to identify with peace-loving people who just want to be left alone to raise their children, enjoy liberty, and build their own country, then yes. Otherwise, if you're sane, hell no.

Yes that is prejudice and it is ironic that you mention “peace-loving” and “want to be left alone” as descriptors of the state of Israel. Well gee, it sure seems that way TO THEM. But how did they win such a position for themselves in the first place? Fighting wars and taking land.

The way some defend Israel with such zeal should make most free-thinking people pause for thought.

We ought to have no illusions regarding Israel, yet most here seem to rush into a weird defense of her at every opportunity and even when it is an unreasonable defense.

I defend my family even when it is wrong, but Israel is not family. America first.
