If I were Israel I wouldn't limit my attacks to the West Bank and Gaza. I'd be hitting Lebanon and Syria, taking Hamas and other a--hole organization leaders wherever they exist. And you know what, if any foreign leader objected I'd tell them to f-off.

It's amazing what our leadership in the US will approve in their quest to destroy terrorists hell bent on doing damage to our nation, yet watch as they condemn Israel for doing the same things. Frankly it turns my stomach!

There is one reason why we cannot fully support Israel: Half of our imports come from OPEC, which is, for all intents and purposes, run by the Saudis. Guess what happens if our support of Israel gets too strong: Oil embargo, followed by economic downturn.

We need to remove the leverage that OPEC has over us. David Frum's book, incidentally, points us in the direction we need to take that could remove the leverage.

Given our stance on the War on Terror, I too find it puzzling that the US polocy on Israel is what it is. There has to be something going on that we don't know about, otherwise Israel would have the greenlight from us for doing what ever they needed to do.

We lack pieces of the puzzle that the real players have - Nothing else makes sense. As spectators to the carnage, it is hard for us all to watch.

All things being equal, I would be satisfied to see Israel march the Palestinians (a non-real people) out of the region on boxes. Or in them.

You're truly amazing.

The Israeli people themselves are sick and tired of over fifty years of conflict and killing, that has no real end in sight. They want some legitimate possiblity of a lasting peace. You must know that. Well, perhaps you don't.

The fact PresBush condemns Israel for comitting this specific attack, is important to keep his appearence of being an honest broker in the ME. Anyone with half a brain knows the US is Israel's friend and ally. PresBush is attempting to assist Israel in finally securing an end to all hostilites. If you think killing all the Palis is the answer, your wrong. If you think Israel should engage in another war with the Arab world, your wrong. The next big war in the ME could mean the end of Israel, as we know it. And I'm not referring to any Bibical profhecy either. 300 million Arab's may not choose to sit still this time. The tinderbox could explode into a dangerous regional conflict.

The day may yet come when such events will lead to all out war, with Israel and the US battling the Islamic/Arab world. Clinton had his opportunity. Lets give PresBush his opportunity. Anything is possible.
