Perhaps for you support of President Bush is contigent upon him embracing the agenda of thse settler idiots. Not me. For me "my honor is my loyalty".
I am not denying that many of the Gaza Jews are refusing to leave. I wish that all of them were refusing to leave, but I can't urge them on from the comfort of my home in the US.
Secretary Rice has advocated Prime Minister Sharon's policy of destroying Jewish communities in Gaza and in part of the West Bank. That does not mean that it is the right policy. We don't believe in Secretarial Infallability in matters of policy.
I don't think that it is "leftie values" to disagree with the President of the United States. Many FReepers, for example, disagree with his policies on immigration. This does not make them lefties. In my opinion it is no more lefty to hold onto your home in Gaza than it is to hold onto your home in Bridgeport (or wherever Kelo occurred).
Also, these people are Israelis who, for the most part, are not US citizens (there was a breakdown of country of origin for the Jews of Gaza that was published a few days ago). They don't owe the same allegiance to the President of the US that we Americans do. In any case, if I were in their shoes I would say that my home comes before my loyalty to the Secretary of State of another country, and that I would defend my right to remain in my home over the potential embarrasment to the President of that country.
Frankly, I doubt that many of them are giving any thought at all to whether their actions are embarrassing the President of the United States. They are defending their right to remain in their homes, and they are defending their right to remain in the face of eviction based on the fact that they are Jews.
It is inexplicable to me why President Bush, who clearly said that people are either with us or they're with the terrorists, has chosen to side with the terrorists in the case of the Gaza destruction.
>>uh, do you deny that the Gaza Jews are refusing to leave? Do you deny that Ms. Rice wants the settlers to leave? Every time these settler idiots chose to cause a ruckus, they are directly, and indisputably embracing leftie values by trying to embarass our President.
Perhaps for you support of President Bush is contigent upon him embracing the agenda of thse settler idiots. Not me. For me "my honor is my loyalty".
Quite frankly, President Bush is not their president and as far as they're concerned, Bush's agenda is irrelevant. Or do you think that once we in the United States elect a president, citizens of every other country in the universe must toe his line? I don't think even Bush thinks that way.
That's sick.
An old SS slogan Mein Herr?
'Every time these settler idiots chose to cause a ruckus, they are directly, and indisputably embracing leftie values by trying to embarass our President.'
Do you REALLY think that people who are losing their homes, livlihoods, and being forced to leave what they believe is Israeli land, are thinking about President Bush's standing on the world stage?
Thank you, Herr Goebbels.
