Here is my collection of links for refuting some of the common arguments and attacks against our Israeli allies:
"I'm a proud USAist, as much as I am a proud zionist. I stand by both countries as having the rights to flurish and defend their interests around the world. While I may not agree with everything my country does, I don't think that pushing every American into the Pacific Ocean is very advisable.
I'm also a proud Swedenist as much as I am a proud zionist. Do I agree with everything the Swedish government does? No, but I don't call for throngs of jihadists to destroy the nation, that would be silly.
I'm a proud Iraqist as much as a I am a proud zionist. Do I agree with ANYTHING that Saddam run Iraq has ever done? Never, but I don't call for pushing every Iraqi into the Persian Gulf, that would be silly.
I'm a proud Chinaist as much as I am a proud zionist. I don't agree with the longest military ocupation in the world today taking place in Tibet, but it would seem to me that trying to push every Chinaman into the South China Sea is just not a pragmatic solution.
I'm a proud UKist as much as I am a proud zionist. I don't think that the United Kingdom is without it's faults (ie. the spice girls) but that's no reason to drive every last brit into the Atlantic Ocean."
I'm a proud (__INSERT COUNTRY NAME HERE__)ist as much as I am a proud Zionist. I may not agree with everything (__INSERT COUNTRY NAME HERE__) has done, but calling for their overthrow is a bad thing.
Sooooo . .
Tell me (__INSERT YOUR APONENTS NAME HERE__), when you express your frustration that most of the freedom loving world is zionist, why this facination with destroying a country? The freedom loving world would never permit it. And besides . . It didn't work for Abdul Nasser now did it ?
Golda Meir was right, Arafat isn't.
The moral dilema today is that Arafat and Sharon are both thugs and bullies and self serving.
Golda was Israel.
