No $hi*. So why don't you stick with the crap he is saying in public. You Know, like telling Israel to stop their war against terrorism so we do not upset our great rich Arab friends!
I will try to educate you just a bit here. We, the USA, were attacked. We, the USA, got our stuff together and went into the first phase of an operation to wipe out the international terrorist cells. We, the USA, had plans to move from Afghanistan on to the next vipers nest. Israel started having an increase in suicide bombings. Bush told the world, that was screaming for us to put our plans on hold and mediate a "peace" whose quest has consumed the time of countless US presidents to the detriment of our own country's pressing needs, that he had no dog in the fight at that time and that Israel had the right to self-defense
. Sharon was off the leash and what did he do? He knocked down a couple of empty PA police stations. The bombings continued and Sharon then placed Arafat under house arrest but that was it. In the meantime our operation in Afghanistan was quickly coming to an end and far from maintaining ours and the country's focus on the next target, the entire international attention turned to the Israeli/Palestinian conflict as if it was a brand new development and not an on-going low level war that has lasted 50 years. It was clear that Sharon was NOT going to finish the job and wipe out Arafat and the PLA so something had to be tried to shift the focus from Israel to the next phase of our war. Bush DID NOR WANT TO GET INVOLVED but Sharon would not do his job and take care of his own internal war
. The United States and Bush know we cannot abandon Israel because if we did they would be extinct in a decade. However; Bush has his own responsibilities because we ARE going to take on Iraq and we do not have the forces to fight multiple front wars. Israel had better understand that once we are engaged in Iraq, possibly Iran and Syria, they have to stand up and use the vast military capabilities we have provided them with. The state of Israel had better live up to their vow of "never again" because their only friend in the world may be a bit too busy to provide the political cover Israel wants before the solve their problem.
Democrats are liars: No $hi*. So why don't you stick with the crap he is saying in public. You Know, like telling Israel to stop their war against terrorism so we do not upset our great rich Arab friends!
So then you -- Democrats are liars -- admit that you don't know what Bush is saying behind the scenes. Yet you take the absolute position that Bush really wants Israel to withdraw before Israel is ready to withdraw on it's own terms.
Why?
