Nice of you to post something for the communists, racists, and fascists here, of which I hope there are not too many.

Does RCW ever post anything that isn't anti Israel? He seems to work 24/7 to find any any anti Israel article or Bravo Sierra article he can find to post!

 Most of what is characterized as "human behavior" is as automatic as that of any
animal. Once a set of premises are established, human beings will act upon them
with an often frightful continuation of logic. It was once very fashionable (still is, in
some unenlightened quarters) to blame the German people for the Nazis, or the
Russian people for the Soviets, or the Chinese or the Cambodians for their
communist atrocities. And yet we now literally know better. The majority of human
beings in any given group, regardless of sex, age, race, religion, culture, etc., will
behave similarly under similar circumstances. This is a thing the Left denies and the
Right pretends to misunderstand. It is called, quaintly but appropriately, "human
nature."

I am still waiting for veronica to answer me regarding the US favoring Ireland versus Israel.

There are no F-16s being sent to Ireland; there have been no monies allotted by Congress for museums dedicated to the Irish famine and there are no Irish Political Action Committees devoted to influencing city or state elections.

When are the Zionists going to start minding their own business and stop trying to screw up the US?

We can always hope. After September 11th, most Freepers wouldn't hold with his filth.

My point all the time...one can never have a civil discussion about world affairs whitout beign labeled a enemy of Israel or a bigot for that matter.
Since when is Israel beyond reproach of criticism in the realm of civil objection? I for one do not agree whith the way Israel handles its relationship with the States vis-a-vis our policies. We pumping every year 2+ Billion of tax payer money in this money pit with no palpable results. All we get is lip service from various cabinet representatives justifing the auctions.

Dare I mention that Israelies are spying on us on regular basis and that they are selling Hi Tech weaponry to the Chinese?
I do understand the strategic position of Israel in the Arabian Peninsula and our support for the only democratic elected leaders in that country, but somewhere is a limit to all that largesse.
