And your point, exactly, is? Not enough Americans died in WWII to suit you? Fighting for the balance of power in the world isn't important, it only counts if you're fighting to liberate people from concentration camps? Surely, you must have had a point, but I'm damned if I can figure out what it is.

You asked why you should care about Israel, and I told you. You know, WWI started with the assasination of some guy no one ever heard of by an anarchist somewhere in the Balkans. Before you knew it, millions were dead in Europe. World War is a funny thing-- once it gets going, it's hard to figure how it will play out. Israel has the potential to be that kind of spark to a long smoldering fire.

Sheesh. Your rationale is pretty lame. Those are good reasons why the US shouldn't have supported founding the state of Israel if its got the potential to cause Doomsday. And at this point, that would be a good reason to pull the plug on it and evacuate the people living there to Nebraska.

Look, you have no desire to die for Israel and if you came right up to it, you wouldn't want to die for Israel and you're an Israel supporter. Why in God's name have you no humility about other Americans who don't care one way or the other about Israel getting killed for Israel? And for what? Some egomania?
