U.S. Mulled Series Of Sanctions Against Israel WASHINGTON [MENL] -- The Bush administration has prepared a list of sanctions against Israel should it refuse to comply with a plan for a Palestinian state by the end of the year.
U.S. government and congressional sources said the list was prepared by the State Department and relayed to the National Security Council in April amid the administration's effort to press Israel to agree to the so-called roadmap. The roadmap, drafted by Washington as well as the European Union, United Nations and Russia, calls for an end to the Israeli-Palestinian war and the establishment of an interim state in 2003.
The sources said the State Department's proposed list of sanctions included an examination of the use of U.S. weapons in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Israel has employed such platforms as the AH-64A Apache helicopter, the AH-1G Cobra helicopter and the F-16 fighter-jet in air attacks on Palestinian insurgents.
"It's hard to overestimate the anger within the administration toward Israel regarding the delays in the roadmap," a congressional source close to the administration said. "The White House doesn't regard the roadmap merely as foreign policy. It sees the roadmap as a major element toward the reelection of the president."

There is NO COUNTRY IN THE MIDDLE EAST THAT CAN DESTROY ISRAEL
You are certainly right about that!! Israel and the Jews have a divine destiny to fulfill... God brought them back to their homeland, Israel, after thousands of years of being scattered, for a purpose. Keep your eye on Israel. Exciting times we are living in.

LOL I wasn't trying to 'fool' anyone about anything. You know you never go to the meat of anything anyone says, and simply direct insults or smeers at a person. You're pathetic. Try debating someone with an IQ of less than 130 for a change.

So, if no country in the ME can destroy Israel, why do they keep using the lie to get our money?

I do remember Bush saying that during the debates. Unfortunately, before becoming President, candidates are not privy to certain information they obtain after taking office. I have no idea what the real story is here, and neither do any of the rest of us. I am concerned about this, but I do trust the President regardless until I see something that changes that. But it will not be an article from some media source that decides this for me.

>>>Not only is Bush selling out his own country ...
Get a grip! PresBush isn't selling out his country and the US would never turn its back on Israel. Only extremist wackos and the anti-Bush crowd believe such idiocy.
You are absolutely right on this one Reagan man

If you would feel better, ask the IRS to take extra money from me for Israel in your place. You can keep the small share of your tax money that goes there and I will gladly pay it for you.

Well look at this, this file does not exist. Was this BS story pulled.
This was/is typical of the Jayson Blair BS on the so called right wing of the professional GW haters.
Go to the title and try to call up this BS. This is what you get.

I don't like you. Never have. I think you're intellectually challenged, quite immature and have shown time and again that you're part of the malcontent, misfit and militant wing of FR. You're only interested in expressing your personal opinions in the form of endless rants. Boring. The fact you're incapable of comprehending what other folks have to say, shows a limited outlook of the world. Someday, you may grow up. Keep trying.

Yes, President Gore has such a nice ring to it.
Were I a citizen of a contested state, you would have a point. However, as a New Yorker, the only vote that had any chance of counting was mine for Lazio for Senate.
My vote for president was irrelevent. As such I gladly made a protest vote.

You and rb22982 are two of a kind and deserve each other.
Have fun, losers.

Whatever. Didn't you post an article titled, "Is Bush the Antichrist?"Is he really the one who posted that ? I haven't seen his response to this question yet.

I see your point, but much was made of Bush not winning the popular vote.

So first, I'm disgusting and now I'm absolutely right.
You're very confused, Jorge.

If they get their state, there will be an all out regional war against Israel in the ME.If that happens, G-d forbid, then all the legitimacy the Palestinians have in the international community, however bogus it may appear to friends of Israel, will be wiped away in the minds of all but the most fervent Jew-haters, and the true goal of destroying the Jewish State will be laid undeniably bare for all the world to see.
