Yeah, but they're not a "51st State" like Israel.
Israel's "special".
In their mind.
Dont know why they still think they are the chosen people unless they think God has a heck of a sense of humor.
There are two places, IMNHO, where our laws derive from. One, the immediate one, is Britian, there our secular laws nearly all derive. Excusing of course, a bit in your home state where its derives from the French Napoleanic Codes.
The other place, is Israel, Jewish Palestine, Israel. From there our theological laws derive, and through those theological laws the Brititsh codes have been refined, have been annealed.
We are in a war of laws. Our Law is taking its proper place in the world. Other systems of law realise they can not live while our law exists, so those systems of law have placed us, our Laws, under a fight to the finish.
Our true allies are the Brtitsh and the Israelis. This is not just a temporary, fleeting, political alliance. It is a deep permanent alliance, an inseperable alliance, an alliance that is, whether we, individually, admit it or no.
